Chapter 331 He's angry!
Chapter 331 He's angry!
Mu Xinyao originally planned to find another opportunity to make a move on Mu Qingyang, but she did not expect that because she was about to get married, Li Shi would use the excuse that it was not appropriate for her to go out to effectively confine her to her home. Even the matter of going to Jinyuan to pay her respects was directly exempted from her duties.
In this way, she naturally could no longer find an opportunity to make a move against Mu Qingyang.
Mu Xinyao was unwilling, but what could she do?
He couldn't even leave through the second gate now. The back gate and the kitchen gate, which were used for shopping, were also heavily guarded. Even the small gate for emptying chamber pots had been reinforced with manpower, clearly indicating that they were on guard against something.
Mu Xinyao wasn't stupid; she naturally connected this matter to Mu Xinnuan.
Now, she spends her days hiding here embroidering her wedding dress, and she's almost suffocating from boredom!
Fortunately, the wedding dress is almost finished being embroidered, so it won't delay me from wearing it on my wedding day.
Mu Xinyao was much more clear-headed than before. Marrying Jin Hui, in terms of status, wasn't too bad. At least she wouldn't be destitute in the future. Thinking about it more carefully, he was, after all, the second young master of the Marquis of Dingyuan's mansion. Hmph! Who knows what kind of accident might happen to that heir in the future?
Furthermore, Mu Xinyao knew that Jin Hui was Ming Wang's man, so they were essentially on the same side. More importantly, Mu Xinyao understood Ming Wang well; he wouldn't bother to win over someone who lacked ability, much less think about promoting or cultivating them. Therefore, it seemed that Jin Hui did indeed possess some talent.
Since that's the case, then she'll help him seize power in the Dingyuan Marquis's mansion step by step, and then see how Mu Xin Nuan cries!
It has to be said that Mu Xinyao's thoughts now are the same as in her previous life.
Because Mu Xinyao was still young, it was impossible for her to consummate the marriage with Jin Hui immediately after the wedding. Therefore, she was not worried at all about people finding out that she was no longer a virgin. Moreover, in her view, it would be extremely easy for Jin Hui to believe that she was still a virgin.
Mu Xinyao now knows that she is about to get married. At this time, Mu Xinnuan is also the most vigilant against her. Therefore, after learning that the guards in the mansion are more stringent than before, she is not in a hurry to do anything.
Mu Xinyao now has several nannies sent by Madam Li to teach her etiquette every day, as well as things to be wary of in a large family. After all, she is a daughter of the Mu family and cannot always be schemed against by outsiders.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Xinyao and Jin Hui's wedding day was drawing ever closer.
Inside the Mu residence, lanterns and decorations have already begun to adorn the place.
Mu Xin Nuan had taken a bath and changed her clothes early in the morning. The weather was no longer so hot and humid, especially in the early morning and evening, when it was quite refreshing.
Mu Xin Nuan asked someone to open the window to let the room air out. She then sat down on the couch with her slightly damp hair to read. Rong Yue took a fine linen cloth and stood beside her, gently wiping her hair to prevent her from catching a cold.
This is the scene that Duanmu Chuze saw upon his arrival.
Mu Xin Nuan was wearing a loose-fitting light purple outfit, her hair was draped behind her head, and her head was still slightly damp.
Duanmu Chuze was initially stunned by her beautiful appearance, but then a thin layer of anger appeared in his eyes!
With a wave of his hand, the window slammed shut with a bang, startling Mu Xin Nuan, who was reading a book!
Rongyue also shuddered, "Your Highness?"
When Mu Xin Nuan saw that it was him, she wasn't too shocked. However, she sensed that he seemed to be angry, so she didn't dare to speak easily, for fear that she might say something wrong and provoke him again.
"Mu Xin Nuan, don't you know you just took a shower? And the window was still open! Look, your hair is still wet."
Mu Xin Nuan subconsciously glanced back and noticed that there were still water droplets dripping from her hair, while Rong Yue was so frightened that she froze and dared not move.
With a sinister look, Duanmu Chuze took two steps forward, snatched the fine linen cloth from Rongyue's hand, and sat down on the couch. Then, with an unhappy expression, he began to gently wipe Mu Xinnuan's hair.
Rong Yue stared blankly at the handsome and elegant Prince Chang Le, who was actually doing such a servant's job. She blinked and really thought she was hallucinating!
Mu Xin Nuan felt the anger emanating from him, but she could also clearly sense a touch of gentleness and care in his actions. She felt a warm feeling in her heart, and unconsciously, the corners of her lips curved slightly.
Mu Xin Nuan had already turned half of her face slightly to the side, so although Duanmu Chu Ze couldn't see the whole expression on her face, he could clearly see the movement of the corner of her lips curving upwards.
"You silly girl, don't you know how to take care of yourself? I scolded you and you're still so happy, are you out of your mind?"
"What do you mean?" Mu Xin Nuan retorted immediately.
"Still denying it!" Duanmu Chuze glared at her fiercely. "If there's a next time, see how I deal with you!"
Mu Xin Nuan immediately shut her mouth, not daring to say anything more. Knowing this man's temperament, he might really do something. After all, Rong Yue was still in the room at the moment.
"Your name is Rong Yue?"
"Your Highness, this servant is Rongyue."
"Hmm. Ah Nuan always praises you for being smart and capable. Is this all you've got? Didn't you know your young lady had just taken a bath? You just opened the window right away? What if she catches a cold? Is this how you usually take care of her?"
Duanmu Chuze is gentle to Mu Xinnuan, but that doesn't mean he's gentle to others.
He couldn't handle Mu Xin Nuan because he liked her and couldn't bring himself to say harsh words, but he clearly didn't have the same patience with Rong Yue.
"Your Highness, it was my carelessness. Please forgive me."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xin Nuan felt a headache coming on!
Has this girl gone mad? Has she forgotten who her master is? What's with all the fuss about him punishing her? She's not a maid from the Chang Le Prince's Mansion!
Duanmu Chuze nodded. "Hmm, since you know you were wrong, why don't you hurry down and make some ginger soup for your young lady? Do you really want to see your young lady catch a cold?"
Upon hearing this, Rongyue nodded repeatedly, forgetting even to perform the proper etiquette, and hurriedly went to the small kitchen to brew ginger soup for her mistress.
Mu Xin Nuan shook her head, "Don't you feel comfortable unless you scare her?"
