Chapter 465: Muxiang (2) (1/2)
He Sanlang spoke the least during dinner. He only gave some short replies whenever the matriarch asked him some questions.
However, no one thought it was strange since he always kept a cold expression on his face.
Senior Servant Zhou and Matriarch He’s two personal maidservants had also set up a small table in the side room. Three dishes and a small pot of rice wine were enough for the three of them.
Senior Servant Zhou noticed that Muxiang seemed preoccupied, so she asked, “What’s wrong? Are you still feeling unwell from that cold you got a couple days ago?”
Muxiang quickly shook her head, “Momo, I’m fine now.”
“If you’re fine, then hurry and eat. These dishes are all your favourites. The matriarch specially told the cook in the main kitchen to make more for you.”
Muxiang stared at the appetising dishes in front of her and scowled in her heart. She didn’t like to eat these at all!
Did these people really think that she was the former Muxiang?
Seeing that Muxiang still looked weary, Senior Servant Zhou muttered grudgingly, “What’s wrong with this girl? She’s acting like she’s been possessed.”
Muxiang snorted in her heart. That was exactly it! Why else would she be in this lowly body?
Muxiang promptly stood up.
Senior Servant Zhou set down her chopsticks and frowned.
“Girl, what’s wrong with you!”
Muxiang’s eyes fell on the wall beside her. She suddenly lowered her head and innocently smiled at Senior Servant Zhou, “Momo, since I don’t really have any appetite, why don’t I go and serve the matriarch?”
Senior Servant Zhou thought that she was too dedicated to her work. She tried to persuade her otherwise, “Xiangyun and Hexiang are taking care of the Matriarch. You don’t have to worry.”
“Momo, just let me go, please? I have nothing to do anyway. I just want to spend more time with the matriarch.”
Senior Servant Zhou had no other choice but to let her go. She reprimanded with a smile on her face, “Just go then, you silly girl. I knew you were a restless one. Everyone else can’t wait to rest more, but you just can’t stop working throughout the day.”
Muxiang curtsied towards Senior Servant Zhou before she turned to walk to the parlour with a giggle.
