Chapter 365 Special Hidden Mission 6
Chapter 365 Special Hidden Mission 6
Mu Xingsui took Feng Caixian to Juxian Tower. After three rounds of drinks, Mu Xingsui told him his purpose.
Feng Caixian didn't expect that Mu Xingsui actually wanted to become his relative. This was really beyond his expectations.
On second thought, there might be something wrong with Mu Xingsui's daughter, so she fell in love with his son.
Seeing Feng Caixian's expression, Mu Xingsui thought of what his daughter had said about the Feng family, and quickly said, "My daughter is fine, there's nothing wrong with her."
Mu Xingsui also told Feng Caixian about his daughter's dissatisfaction with her appearance.
After hearing this, Feng Caixian looked at Mu Xingsui with an empathetic expression.
"So, I don't want my daughter to marry high, I want to find a good one." Mu Xingsui said: "I have inquired about your boy and found him to be a good one, so I want to marry your children to yours."
"Of course, this matter still needs to see the children's situation." Mu Xingsui cupped his hands and said, "I hope Brother Feng will go back and consider it."
"Okay." Feng Caixian nodded.
After eating and drinking their fill, they both went home.
"Husband, why are you so drunk?" Yu said while supporting Feng Caixian.
"Today, the eldest son of the Minister of Rites, Mu Xingsui, a seventh-rank official in the Censorate, invited me to have a drink." Feng Caixian told Yu everything that happened today, word for word.
"Madam, I think this Brother Mu is very sincere. How about letting my son go and see him?"
"I've heard a lot about the girls of the Mu family. They all value rules and are talented." Yu was very happy. "It's a great fortune for the Mu family to be able to take a fancy to An'er."
If he could marry the daughter of the Mu family, An'er would also have the support of the Yue family in the future.
You don't have to be like my husband, who has to rely on himself to take one step at a time and it's difficult.
Yu was very happy, but she did not let her husband return to the Mu family immediately.
Instead, he asked his servant to deliver the letter to Feng Youan. After Feng Youan saw the letter, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He wrote a reply, expressing his willingness to meet Miss Mu.
Only after Feng Youan agreed did Yu let her husband go back to the Mu family.
On the first day of August, Feng Youan took a bath and the two families agreed to meet at the Golden Buddha Temple.
Yun Chu would not accompany them this time. There was no problem with Feng Youan, the candidate she recommended. If there was really a problem, it could only be said that Feng Youan was too good at disguising himself.
"Miss Mu, you are so polite. My name is Feng Youan, with the courtesy name Yide, and I am in my early twenties..."
After Feng Youan introduced himself, Mu Yunning also briefly introduced herself.
"Miss Mu, you don't know that this is not the first time I've seen you." Feng Youan said, "I saw you once two years ago during the Qixi Lantern Festival. At that time, you were holding a lotus lantern, like a fairy, and you fell into my heart."
When Mu Yunning heard Feng Youan's sudden confession, her face turned red and she lowered her head shyly.
"Later, I was fortunate enough to learn that you were the granddaughter of Minister Mu. I knew that with my family background, I couldn't marry into this class, so I studied hard."
"I want to become a Jinshi, then I will be qualified to propose to you."
"When I learned that I would meet you, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep well for several nights."
"Although I am still a small person now, I will work hard to make you live a good life."
After saying this, Feng Youan took out the hairpin he had prepared and said, "I bought this with the money I saved."
"I hope Miss Mu won't dislike it."
Mu Yunning took the hairpin with a red face and whispered, "I like it very much."
When Feng Youan heard this, he knew that Mu Yunning also had feelings for him.
The corners of his mouth curled up in a smile.
The two chatted for a long time before going back.
When Mrs. Deng and Mrs. Yu saw the expressions on the two children's faces, they knew that the two children were in love with each other.
The two of them smiled at each other.
It was not until the afternoon that Deng and Mu Yunning returned home.
On the tenth day of September, the Feng family sent a matchmaker to arrange the marriage.
As for the wedding, it is scheduled for the ninth day of May next year.
Second bedroom
Liu drank tea and said, "This sister-in-law actually arranged a marriage for Yun Ning with such a family." It would be such a waste if she married into a wealthy and powerful family.
Liu looked at her daughter and said, "Yunzhu, mother will definitely find you a man from a wealthy family. Then you will be able to surpass the eldest wife."
Mu Yunzhu said: "Mother, please choose a good family for me. I don't want to marry into a small family."
As a member of a small family, she was inferior in food and clothing. She didn't want to be outdone by her other sisters when she returned to her parents' home.
Especially the sisters from the first wife's family.
"Mom, isn't my brother good friends with the young master of the Grand Tutor's Mansion? If I can marry into the Grand Tutor's Mansion, I will definitely live a better life than my other sisters." Mu Yunzhu said.
"The young master your brother is close to is a bastard from the Grand Tutor's Mansion, and he is not favored."
"So what if he is not favored? After all, he is from the Grand Tutor's Mansion. When he passes the imperial examination and enters the officialdom, this illegitimate son will be better than the legitimate sons of some small families."
Mu Yunzhu thought that she could ask her brother to make more appointments so that she would have the opportunity to meet the young master of the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
"By the way, mother, what kind of family did you show Mu Yunxing?"
"That little bitch, your father said he had his own arrangements and told me not to interfere." Liu said with an unhappy look on her face.
"Mother, we can't let Mu Yunxing get married well. What if she suppresses me?" How can a concubine's daughter get married well?
"She is a concubine's daughter, how can she marry into a good family? Don't worry, daughter." Liu comforted her.
In mid-October, Mu Yunxing was carried into Prince Bo's mansion in a sedan chair, and Mu Yunxing became Prince Bo's concubine.
Prince Bo is already forty-one years old, three years older than Mu Xingneng.
Mu Xing sent his daughter to be a concubine, which was really pushing his daughter into the fire pit.
Mu Zhenrui was so angry about this incident that he fell ill.
The girl from his Mu family actually became a concubine.
He never got involved in party disputes.
Yun Chu gave Mu Zhenrui an injection and fed him medicine. After a while, Mu Zhenrui woke up.
"Split the family!" Mu Zhenrui, who had just woken up, shouted two words.
Mu Zhenrui divided the family business very quickly. The next day he sent people to invite the elders of the clan to come to Beijing. A month later.
The Mu family split up.
After the family was divided, Mu Zhenrui wrote a letter of retirement and returned home.
However, the memorial was suppressed by the emperor.
Because the emperor had not yet found someone to replace the Minister of Rites, he suppressed Mu Zhenrui's memorial.
"My wife, how much silver do we have?" Mu Xingsui asked, "If His Majesty approves my father's resignation, then this mansion will be taken back and we will have to buy a new one."
The Minister of Rites's residence is no longer a place they can live in.
"The family was divided into more than 40,000 taels, plus the income from the farm, there are 100,000 taels of silver, which should be enough to buy a four-story house."
Mu Zhenrui can be considered an honest official. The Mu family's wealth was left by their ancestors, otherwise Mu Xingsui and others would not be able to get so much silver.
"My lady, please be patient recently. Please take care of the house first."
"Okay." Deng nodded.
It was getting close to the Chinese New Year and things were originally quite busy, but now the housekeeping responsibilities have been handed over to Qi Siyu, the daughter-in-law.
The matter of the New Year gifts was handed over to her two daughters, Yun Ning and Yun Chu, so Deng went to look at houses with peace of mind.
