Chapter 16 (1/2)

Mu Xiyao is facing the lotus pond outside the window, slowly drawing the veins of the lotus leaves and the morning dew above. Mother GUI came with a smile on her face and said in a soft voice, ”master, your Highness has brought you something interesting to open with your own hands.”

He saw a basket in his hand, covered with purple silk.

Mu Xiyao put pen, clean hands after taking over the bamboo basket, but found quite some weight. And gently opened a corner of the silk, immediately exclaimed, eyes are full of surprise.

Mother GUI and Mulan were startled by Xiyao, and then saw her jump to open the silk. Inside, two small rabbits were curled up in a ball and were leaning against each other. They were very cute.

Mu Xiyao looks at two fat rabbits and is very happy. A gray, a white, are hairy ball like, especially the fat little butt, Mu Xiyao reached out and gently poked with his index finger, and the rabbit moved his ears, squinted and moved his buttocks lazily. Mu Xiyao laughs and looks at the basket.

Mother GUI and Mulan were stiff and pitifully looking at the two rabbits. Ah, what should be said? Who is not at home, but the master.

There is a reason for this. Mu Xiyao has taken pills and has a light aura. As long as she is close to these small creatures, these animals will soon like to get close to her.

However, Mu Xiyao, a woman, has a big problem. Whatever she thinks is cute, she will tease her and never tire of it. When teased, these animals don't feel the malice of Mu Xiyao, and like to rely on her taste, so they let her rub. However, as time goes on, no one can stand the long-term harassment. Therefore, even if they are healthy, they are mentally listless. If mother GUI and Mulan knew a word, they would understand that it was a manifestation of depression.

So mu Xiyao could keep a pet at home at first. Later, even if she connived at Yu's family, she ordered that she should not bring her living pet into yingshuixuan. Even the younger sister, Mu Jingzhi, always asks for her and runs away. Mu Xiyao is really worried about keeping pets.

Now suddenly see such a lovely pet, or two, love each other squat in the same place, Mu Xiyao can not see stars, ecstatic? Unfortunately, she didn't feel happy for a long time, so Mulan came to take over the basket and stood several steps away from her. Then she said uneasily, ”Miss, madam, if you keep a pet again, Huilan and I will have to be punished. What's more, this is a gift from your highness, don't you want such a lovely rabbit? Do you think this will do? Or will the maids keep them for you and look at them when you are free? ” Mother GUI also nodded her head and repeatedly agreed.

Mu Xiyao lamented, sister is a ghost or where, raise a rabbit have to look far away and can not play? She was reluctant to give up and looked, and then reluctantly nodded her head, indicating that she would be present in person for the daily morning feeding. The two people next to him said something. The secret road is dangerous.

Mu Xiyao got the rabbit, the mood began to fly, but still remember very polite to Zong Zhenglin back a letter of thanks. The words in the letter are sincere, full of joy, and even the font is more flexible. I also complain that although I can only watch now, I am very satisfied. A self-made bookmark is enclosed as a token of our appreciation.

Zong Zhenglin read the letter with a soft smile on his face. Thinking of the pathetic big rabbit watching the scene of two little rabbits, I feel more and more funny. I picked up the bookmark again and watched it carefully. The main body of the bookmark is a leaf. The green mesophyll has been removed. Only the yellowish veins and hollow stripes are left. It is very delicate. There is a blue ribbon on it. The whole bookmark is elegant and generous. You can see the owner's intention. Zong Zhenglin gently stroked the ribbon and placed the bookmark in the pages he often read.

I haven't seen it for a few days, and I'm worried about it. After pondering for a while, Zong Zhenglin wrote a short letter and asked Ye Kai to deliver it to Mu Xiyao in person.

In recent days, all of you know that Miss Biao in the mansion has already received a gift from his highness before she comes out of the cabinet. It is obvious that she can also be favored after entering the mansion, so she makes her efforts to flatter her. Mu Xiting is mu Xiyao's sister. Naturally, she has some advantages. This is not, it can be seen that the mother beside Miss Biao, with a young man on her face, went to the hospital. Isn't that the man who came to the prince's house to give gifts last time? This is, another gift?

Ye Kai saw Mu Xiyao, respectfully asked Ann, then handed the letter over. But in my heart, I didn't see anyone last time, but this time I saw the master. No wonder he got the eye of his highness. This master is not only a beautiful woman with a water spirit, but also a man who knows how to choose from the two in his Royal Highness's backyard. Suddenly, he realized that he was not talking about his Highness's lecherousness. He stopped and waited for the master to reply.

After reading Zong Zhenglin's letter, Mu Xiyao has a faint smile on her face. Nodding to Ye Kai, he said that he should have done it, and asked people to give him a reward and send him out personally.

As soon as ye Kai went out, Mu Xiyao returned to her usual look. She was so surprised to see mother GUI that she could not breathe. When she followed Yu's side before, what she saw was just a coquettish and obedient second lady. Now, by contrast, Madame and his old people are all swayed in the past. But isn't it just that the more capable the master is, the more secure he will be when he enters the mansion, and the people who follow him will naturally get benefits, isn't it? I don't think about it any more.Zong Zhenglin's letter is to invite Mu Xiyao to go to the West Lake outside Shengjing city to enjoy the lotus on the 29th day of this month. On that day, he can catch up with the annual River lamp praying of the West Lake. Shengjing's annual hedeng prayer is unprecedented and famous. Young women go together to seek a good marriage.

After reading the letter, Mu Xiyao went to Yu's yard to talk about the trip. When Yu heard that he had been invited by his highness, he did not have any reason why he should not. He only repeatedly urged that he should be prudent and courteous, and that he should not be foolishly arrogant and willful. Also specially ordered, put the light back early. Mu Xiyao almost rolled her eyes. Is this afraid that you will not be home at night?

On the 29th day, Mu Xiyao chose a long apricot silk skirt with a simple pale pink crystal step on her head. The face was only smeared with homemade flower water, only with a bunch of jasmine on the wrist. The whole person is very comfortable in summer. The girl is like a flower in bud. Her posture is moving and crystal clear.

Zong Zhenglin looked at such a mu Xiyao. His eyes were deep and focused on her. After a long time, he helped up Xiyao, who was saluting him, and held her hand and entered the carriage together.

”Very beautiful.” This man is very serious A compliment.

Mu Xiyao listened to praise, then very modest show smile. But don't want to be gently taken in the past, and became a hug posture. With a faint blush on his face, he leaned on Zong Zhenglin's body and let him hug him gently.

”What should be written on the lantern Zong Zhenglin looked at her attentively and reached out to help her trim her hair.

”Well? Not yet. ” Mu Xiyao looked up and felt that she was breathing on her face. The masculine breath of the man came to her face, and her eyes were moistened.
