C38 Old Trick

Lau Fenglan was the one who often secretly stared at Yu Longchen. eldest servant girl and Mingdie asked her why she did not directly go up and befriend Yu Longchen. Lau Fenglan immediately said, "Don't bother about Mistress's matters. Whatever you are told to do, you will do. The rest do not ask! Do not forget your own identity!"

Lau Fenglan was naturally not the only one who was jealous. Mu Ruxuan was secretly jealous. Every time she wanted to find trouble with Mu Ruqing, she would be stopped by Mistress Ling. Today, she finally found an opportunity and naturally would not let her go.

There was a pond in the garden of the Prime Minister's residence and Mu Ruqing liked to feed the fish from time to time.

"Fourth Sister." Lau Fenglan called out sweetly and came up to hold her, "You are also here. Fenglan has not played with Eldest Sister for a long time!"

"Younger sister." Mu Ruqing replied with an official smile. The two of them talked about their daily lives. Only they knew in their hearts whether they were telling the truth or not.

"My two younger sisters are in a good mood. Sister Rong, I'm here to join in the fun as well!" Mu Ruxuan came slowly. After the last time, she had learned a lot and acted well.

"Third Sister!" The two of them were naturally happy and called out in unison. The three of them made chairs and greeted each other. servant girl carried the pastries to them.

Mu Ruqing picked up a piece of her favorite osmanthus cake and ate it. Mu Ruxuan, on the other hand, picked up a plate of it. She walked to the side of the pool and crushed a piece of cake and threw it in. She put on a fake smile and said, "Fourth sister, come and take a look at this fish. It is very funny. You are not worthy to eat, but you are still fighting over it. You do not know that it will make you look so lowly." After he finished speaking, his eyes stared straight at Mu Ruqing.

Are you talking about me? "Mu Ruqing laughed and said indifferently, "Older sister is right, indeed. But in my opinion, the fish still have the protection of water. With the fins, you can hold them by yourself and also know what is your own and what is not yours. This point is better than people but they have to obtain something that does not belong to them. Don't you think it's funny? Fenglan? " Mu Ruqing changed the topic and looked at Lau Fenglan.

Lau Fenglan was caught off guard. She composed herself and smiled," Yes! " In her heart, she hated Mu Ruqing for scolding her too. Whether or not it was mine was still unknown!

Mu Ruqing was naturally unhappy when she choked. "Younger sister is right. She suddenly remembered something. Do you want to hear it?"

" Oh?"

"There are so many rich people in the Imperial Capital. Some people really think they are fairies. If it was an ordinary family, it would be fine. But those princes are so noble. How could they truly take a fancy to her? Why don't we just stay calm and not think about anything that is impossible? " Mu Ruxuan said with a few sneers, her eyes filled with disdain.

Mu Ruqing originally thought that she was pointing the spearhead at her. Then she thought about the day of the banquet. Mu Ruxuan looked at Yu Longzi's infatuated eyes and now Yu Longzi and Lau Fenglan were very close. She was jealous. Mu Ruqing did not do her own thing and did not talk to him. She leisurely drank her tea.

Lau Fenglan's expression was somewhat ugly. What? Were they colluding to anger me?

"Sister Lan, come and take a look at the fish." Mu Ruxuan waved happily. Lau Fenglan had no reason not to go. She held back her displeasure and moved over.

"Younger sister looks really good today..." Mu Ruxuan looked at her with ridicule. She glanced at the people in the garden from the corner of her eye and slowly stood in front of her, "Like a - - vixen."

Mu Ruqing lied on the table and pretended to sleep. This kind of old trick, it was not a big deal to not look. It was meaningless to not see.

Lau Fenglan did not want to continue pretending and just as she wanted to reply, Mu Ruxuan grabbed her hand and leaned back. Her expression became frightened and in an instant, Mu Ruxuan fell into the pond with a "putong."

"Someone come, the young lady fell into the water! Someone come!" Amidst the noise, a few people jumped down to save Mu Ruxuan.

Mu Po originally wanted to greet the old lady but when he passed by the garden, he saw his daughter fall into the water. He strode over and sat on the ground to stroke Mu Ruxuan's head. He angrily shouted, "Where is the doctor! Quickly call the doctor over!"

"Cough... cough." Mu Ruxuan spat out a few mouthfuls of water and her breath became even. She said weakly, "Father, daughter... is fine."

"Uncle, Fenglan did not do it on purpose. She originally wanted to pass the pastry to sister. Unexpectedly, just as she touched elder sister, she fell down. Sister Qing is here too. servant girl also knows about it." Lau Fenglan knelt in front of Mu Po and spoke very clearly. Her expression was filled with grievance.

Lau Fenglan indeed had some brains. If she did not admit it, on the contrary, her father would be certain that it was her fault and would ignore her a little. Now, in another way, it was Mu Ruxuan deliberately doing it for her father to see. Mu Ruqing thought that she had to give enough face and cover her thin cloak on Mu Ruxuan's body. With a face full of concern, she asked, "Older sister, are you feeling better?"

"Sister Lan, I just told you a few jokes. Why are you angry? I'm afraid of water the most... Wuuuu... Father, Xuan Er was so scared just now. Father... Wuuuuu!" When she spoke of her grievances, Mu Ruxuan started to sob softly, "In the past, I treated my younger sister as my closest family. Why is younger sister..."

Lau Fenglan did not refute or confirm it. She knelt in front of Mu Po, feeling wronged. Her two teary eyes made people feel very good.

Just now Lau Fenglan mentioned that Mu Ruqing and servant girl present could testify for her. Mu Po did not ask and his expression became a little sad and disappointed.

However, no matter how much Mu Po and the old lady loved her, Mu Ruxuan was still her own daughter. She had been in pain for more than ten years and Lau Fenglan had only been here for a few months. How could the relationship between them be compared?

Furthermore, Mu Po saw clearly that it was Lau Fenglan who pushed Mu Ruxuan. Mu Ruxuan was also most afraid of water. Could it be that she would use her own life to harm her? Mu Po had a plan in his heart but he did not punish her. He only lightly said, "Go back." Then he personally carried Mu Ruxuan back to the courtyard.

Lau Fenglan knew that Mu Po was biased towards Mu Ruxuan in his heart, so she began to hate this uncle in her heart. Mu Ruqing did not say much. This Lau Fenglan probably forgot one thing. She was now living under someone else's roof. She had only been here for a few months and she hoped that everyone would dote on her. Surrounding her? Should I say that you are ignorant or arrogant?

"Sister, you should go back earlier. In case you catch a cold. " Mu Ruqing was naturally 'worried' about her. She did not mention what happened just now and brought Lingyue and Xiangyi back.

Lau Fenglan stayed for a while longer before slowly leaving.

The dividing line...

"Husband, do you want to bring all the children of the Public House to the hunting event at the end of April?" Mrs Miao asked softly beside Mu Po's pillow.

"Okay, but Fenglan wants to go to the temple with her mother. I'm afraid she won't be able to go. Fenglan can forget about it. " Mu Po's tone was a little disappointed.

"Okay. I will prepare everything in a few days. I will not let Fenglan down."

"Yes. Madam is very thoughtful. " Mu Po and Mrs Miao also treated each other with respect. "It's late at night. Quickly go to sleep."

In Mu Ruqing's courtyard.

"Miss, the hunting date and location have been decided." Lingyue put down her hair bun for Mu Ruqing and said with a smile.

"En, I reckon that Lau Fenglan will not be able to go, but it will save us the trouble of dealing with her." After Mu Ruqing finished speaking, she thought for a while. This time, Mu Ruxuan was much more quick-witted. Knowing that Lau Fenglan was not around, she could create a chance to get close to Eldest Prince. In order to not let her go hunting, she went all out. He personally jumped into the pond that he was most afraid of...

Mu Ruqing looked at herself in the mirror and could not help but be lost in thought. She thought about everything that had happened since she woke up from the coffin, as if it had happened yesterday. She touched her face and felt that it was somewhat unreal. Am I now living with the identities of three people? I'm so tired, but... I'm not willing to give up.
