Chapter 382 Difficult to Thank You 3?
Thanks to the Empress's words, things at the Mu residence were much easier. Even so, there was still a lot to prepare. Just the purses for rewards alone would keep the girls in Qianxia's courtyard busy for several days.
Granny Yu found several skilled embroiderers to help make embroidered pouches, and even the Zhenguo General's Mansion sent several embroiderers to help.
On the second branch of the Mu family, ever since the family banquet on the Double Ninth Festival, Jin Shi has not only become more obedient, but also feels quite grateful to Mu Xin Nuan!
Putting everything else aside, just the fact that her two sons were becoming more and more sensible, and even recited the Classic of Filial Piety to her the other day, warmed Jin's heart! With her two sons starting to improve, the old man's expression naturally improved a lot!
After this incident, Madam Jin understood that the second branch of the family only had these two sons, and naturally, the master doted on them the most! After all, the future prosperity of the second branch depended on these two sons!
Since Yang could not give birth to a son and could not have any more children, she naturally could not achieve anything significant.
With a sigh of relief, Madam Jin focused more on the Second Master and her two sons, no longer scheming to cause trouble for Madam Yang and Mu Xinyi. As for Mu Xinmiao, who had just been born, Madam Jin naturally adored her. After all, she was a daughter and wouldn't affect her sons' future status, so she raised her with great care!
Because of her change, Mu Changping felt much more at ease and began to value Jin Shi more. Unconsciously, he started visiting Jin Shi more often.
Firstly, because his youngest daughter was being raised there, he naturally had to play with her every day. Secondly, Jin Shi was no longer as jealous as before, and her two sons were becoming more and more ambitious. With this in mind, his attitude towards Jin Shi naturally improved a lot.
The second wife's family is becoming more and more harmonious, which puts Mu Xin Nuan at ease.
Now that she's about to get married, she can't let herself interfere in the affairs of the Mu family anymore.
Mu Xin Nuan knew that after all these years of ups and downs, her mother's temperament had become much more resilient than before. As for Mu Qing Xuan, at such a young age, he was able to recognize his own identity and understand the responsibilities on his shoulders, which was truly remarkable!
Furthermore, since she had placed Mu Qingye and Liu Zhuangzhuang under Mu Qingxuan's care, she wouldn't have to worry even if Mu Qingyuan followed the same path as in her previous life! Besides, Mu Qingyuan's character in this life is vastly different from that in his previous life!
The only person Mu Xin Nuan is worried about right now is Li Wan Qing from the Zhenguo General's Mansion!
No matter what, she is still her cousin in name only. Even if he is disciplining her, he still has to consider the reputation of the Li family, right?
Fortunately, Mu Xin Nuan didn't worry about this for long before Liu Shi arrived at the Mu residence with her children.
While the Mu residence was bustling with activity, the Chang Le Prince's residence was also keeping busy!
Aside from the main courtyard where everyone was busy replacing all the utensils and items with brand new ones, the bedroom where Duanmu Chuze was resting was relatively quiet.
Duanmu Chuze currently lives in the front yard, but once he has a wife, he will naturally no longer be able to live there. At most, he will only rest there for a while when he is tired from practicing martial arts. What fool would want to stay alone in an empty house after getting married?
Although Mu Xin Nuan is not yet of marriageable age and cannot share a room with her, being able to sleep together while holding her is still a blessing!
At this moment, several elegantly dressed young men stood respectfully in the outer room of Duanmu Chuze's bedroom. Only after receiving permission from inside did they enter one by one.
"Greetings to the prince."
"Alright, that's enough! I've heard about your affairs, but it's alright. This matter has nothing to do with your Xie family; it was the work of those audacious assassins. There's no need to hold a grudge. I will personally go to my father's court to explain everything."
"Thank you, Your Highness. However, Your Highness was still injured at my Xie residence, and my Xie family should come to apologize." The eldest son of the Xie family spoke tactfully.
"Hmm, I've heard that Young Master Xie is quite skilled at playing the zither?"
All three were taken aback; none of them had expected that the Prince of Changle would suddenly bring up this matter.
Young Master Xie was naturally a little puzzled, but he quickly realized, "Your Highness flatters me. It's just that it's still pleasing to the ear."
"No need to be modest. I've been unable to go out all day due to my injuries, and it just so happens that you've come today. You could play a few tunes for me, which would be perfect for relieving my boredom! What do you say?"
Before Xie San could reply, the eldest son of the Xie family bowed respectfully, saying, "Your Highness is right. It is naturally our duty to share Your Highness's burdens." He then raised an eyebrow at Xie San and said, "Third brother, why aren't you getting ready? To be able to play the zither for Your Highness is your good fortune!"
Xie San's expression remained unchanged. He seemed to be used to the insults that Xie Da Gongzi had clearly said to him, and thought they were perfectly normal. He smiled slightly and said, "Yes, Your Highness, then this humble subject will go and fetch the zither."
"Yes, someone come and accompany Young Master Xie to my music room to choose a zither."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, a hint of suspicion flashed in Xie San's eyes. He had heard that this Prince Chang Le never played the zither! What was going on today? Moreover, he had never heard of him having a hobby of collecting zithers before? And he even had a dedicated room for playing the zither?
When the other two heard this, they felt that the Prince of Chang Le was dissatisfied with Xie San and might be using the opportunity of listening to the zither to teach him a lesson!
Xie San went to choose a zither, and the two eldest sons of the Xie family chatted with Prince Chang Le for a while before taking their leave.
Xie San is going to play the zither for the prince here. Who knows how long he'll be playing? If the prince tries to make things difficult again, I'm afraid this third brother's hand might be in danger!
The two legitimate sons of the Xie family have simple, yet somewhat sinister, thoughts!
If they are here, and the Prince of Chang Le intends to make things difficult for them later, should they help or not?
Helping them would be tantamount to offending the Prince of Chang Le! Who knows what other ways this prince might come up with to make things difficult for the two brothers in the future? You must know that although he has gone to Yan, many of his influence still remains in the capital.
If we don't help, and word gets out, won't people say that the brothers don't care about their brotherhood? That's not a good thing!
Therefore, the safest method is naturally to make it invisible!
It has to be said that the two legitimate sons of the Xie family are truly shameless and despicable!
When Duanmu Chuze saw that the two brothers had left before Xie San even returned, it seemed that Xie San's days in the Xie family were truly miserable!
