”Well, you're not a peach blossom, but the sedan girls can carry it.” Mu Rousang pulled her into his palanquin. The Mulberry did not dare to be impudent, and only carried the small stone to sit on his second palanquin, as per Chunxi's instructions. However, Mu Yiyang rode on a big white horse by herself.

Initially, Mu Rousang was still a little worried that he would not know how to ride, so she sat in the sedan chair and peeked through the curtain.

When Mu Fengchai heard this, she laughed and said, ”It's all because we had a mule at home. Cousin, you should know, how can there be any horse in the county, and that horse is so expensive, my brother wouldn't be willing to buy it. It's just that when I have something to do at home, I took a mule to ride on it, and gradually learnt it too.”

Mu Rousang rolled her eyes and asked: ”Didn't you learn it as well?”

”Hey, cousin, we're already so far away, how would you know?” Mu Fengchai originally thought that she had a small secret, but before she had even come to share it with Mu Rousang, she had already guessed it through.

”You grew up by my side, how could you hide your little idea from me?” Mu Rousang laughed as he hugged her.

Mu Fengchai carefully sized her up, then asked softly: ”Cousin, in the past, I always thought about you in my heart, and was afraid that you would be unhappy marrying into the Hou Mansion. I never thought that after seeing you today and seeing how cousin husband is acting, I actually thought that cousin was the right person to marry.”

When Mu Rousang heard this, she thought of Yang Zixuan and even her hair was filled with smiles. ”Isn't that so?

At least her cousin's life was going well, and she thought of the stalwart man that hid deep in her heart. Maybe she should also learn to forget, like her own cousin, to find a loving husband to marry, and then she would give birth to a bunch of children, living happily and peacefully.

Mu Rousang did not know that her marriage had affected Mu Fengchai, so when she thought about how she was busy marrying the last time Mu Fengchai came, she did not have the chance to take him out on the streets to play around with him.

However, just as he arrived at Xuanwu Street, he was suddenly blocked by people on the street. The exit was blocked so tightly that not even a drop of water could leak out.

”Chun Yan, quickly go and take a look. What's the matter?” Seeing that the sedan had stopped, Mu Rousang instructed Chun Yan who was walking at the side.

Mu Fengchai asked curiously: ”Cousin sister, did something happen?”

”I don't know. After I came to the capital, I rarely had the chance to leave. Even if I had free time, my husband brought me to the manor to play. I wonder what happened in the capital recently?”

Mu Rousang suddenly thought of a recent rumor that the censor had shot into the heart of an official, but no one knew what exactly happened.

Very soon, Chun Yan returned and replied, ”Young Mistress, there are many palanquins and carriages in front of us! No one is leaving. ”

”But what did you find out?” For some reason, Mu Rousang felt very uneasy in his heart.

Chun Yan sighed and said, ”They say that an official of the capital has been expropriated. All the people from the proper families will be sent to Caishikou to be executed today.”

Mu Rousang had been in this dynasty for more than ten years, but it was the first time she heard about it. Furthermore, it was not far from her location, causing her entire body to feel uncomfortable.

”What about the women? They were also cut down together? ”

Chun Yan continued, ”I've never heard of it. They only said they cut down men, and I guess they were either sent to the palace as a palace maid, or sent to the government for sale. Sigh, do you think they're living a good life? I don't know what these men are thinking, but they've caused these innocent women to suffer alongside them. ”

Although Mu Rousang had suffered a little when she just arrived, but all these years, she had been immersed in a pot of honey, and when had she ever heard of truly killing people, causing her heart to become anxious and her face to turn ugly.

”Cousin!” Mu Fengchai's black eyes were filled with worry and fear, her small hands tightly grabbing onto the back of Mu Rousang's hand.

She patted the back of Mu Fengchai's hand and forced a smile: ”Don't be afraid, there's always my elder cousin around. Besides, we, as innocent people, are not afraid of these things, you just need to rest assured.

Who knows, perhaps the fate of this official today would be the future of the Yang family. In this era where politics was ever-changing, no one could say which family would be the next.

Mu Fengchai nodded her head obediently, and laughed: ”Yes, I will listen to my cousin. Oh right, elder cousin, do we still have the shop in our city?”

Mu Rousang thought for a moment, then said: ”I've already talked about it from the beginning, about the bonus of the shop, how much will you get from the peach blossoms, and now, I'm afraid that the bonus will not enter your eyes!”

Mu Fengchai tilted her head, her cherry lips pouted, and said: ”How could that be, just thinking that my cousin had opened a few stores in Xiangyang, Shu City, and Capital City, and then thought about it, I'm afraid that my cousin might not even be able to see that idea in the county.”

”Speaking of which, your days are really fast, and the Chun Cao and Chun Yu by your side are also not small, have you added a new little girl?”
