C118 The Engagement be Settled

Mu Jing touched his chin that seemed like it was about to be dislocated, seeing Yang Ningyi's anxious look, he extended his hand and pulled him, and said: "What are you nervous about?"

Aren't you nervous, being almost raped on the bed?

Yang Ningyi looked through the carved window and saw Qingfeng bowing respectfully to the Madam Cheng, replying: "Yes, Young Master has been practicing calligraphy."

"Alright, then I'll go in and see him." Accompanied by Spring Sprout, the Madam Cheng walked into the courtyard.

Seeing that they were about to enter the house, Yang Ningyi's heart jumped. She turned around and saw Mu Jing still sitting there calmly, and she immediately became angry, "Why are you still here? Hurry up and leave. If Aunt and the others see you, we're finished. "

The person was almost in the door, why was he still sitting here? Are you really waiting for someone to apprehend the traitor?

"What are you afraid of? We're going to get married soon anyway. " Mu Jing did not mind, he even picked up the dessert from the table and started eating.

Yang Ningyi was furious, he was not worried, he was still afraid. Even if they were engaged, they were not allowed to meet each other in private, if news of this got out, the two families would be laughed at by others.

"Young Master, the First Madam is here." Jiyue shouted from outside the door. The sound of footsteps followed.

The sound of footsteps came closer to the door. Yang Ningyi panicked, and quickly dragged Mu Jing up. "Hurry go, leave immediately."

He quickly opened the window in the inner room and pushed Mu Jing outside, "Quickly take the window, don't let anyone in the house see you."

"Ningyi, what are you doing in the house?"

The Spring Bud opened the pearl curtain and Madam Cheng walked in. Seeing Yang Ningyi opening the window, she asked curiously, "Ningyi, what are you doing? Is there a problem with the window? "

Yang Ningyi turned around and greeted Madam Cheng, "Aunt, I just feel that the room is a little stuffy, and want to open the window to let in some fresh air."

The Madam Cheng did not suspect anything as she sat down with Spring Sprout on the bed. Yang Ningyi immediately instructed Ji Yue, "Ji Yue, serve tea."

"Aunt, is there something you need?" He sat down.

"There's nothing else, I just wanted to see you." The matter of Mu Family had not been confirmed yet, so it was not good for Madam Cheng to speak carelessly.

If Madam Mu really liked Ningya, and he talked about the marriage with Ningyi now, he was afraid that it would bring about trouble in the future.

He actually didn't mention anything about the engagement?

Yang Ningyi was suspicious, could it be that her aunt did not agree to his marriage?

He glanced at the wardrobe at the side, but with his identity in Mu Family, it was normal that his aunt would be worried about him, so thinking about it, he couldn't help but curl the corner of his lips.

"Ningyi, Ningyi..." Madam Cheng shouted a few times.

Yang Ningyi regained her senses, "Aunt, you called me?"

"What's the matter with you, child? I was talking to you and I was lost in thought. " Madam Cheng smiled faintly, she did not have any intention of reprimanding him.

"Aunt, I'm really sorry. I was thinking about something." Yang Ningyi apologized.

"There's no need to be so reserved, and I'm not blaming you either. Alright, you can continue to rest. I'll go to the wedding courtyard to see the madame." Spring Bud helped Madam Cheng stand up, and Yang Ningyi followed suit to send him out.

Before leaving, Madam Cheng glanced at the corner of the clothes on top of the wardrobe. It didn't look like Ningyi's clothes, this … She turned back to look at Yang Ningyi, smiled, and let Spring Sprout carry her away.

After the Madam Cheng left, Yang Ningyi carefully looked around, and sent the servants out, closing the door, she then opened the wardrobe door, and let Mu Jing out.

Mu Jing walked out with large strides, and stretched his body, "You suffocated me to death."

Yang Ningyi glared at him, and said snappily: Go quickly, don't let anyone see you.

"How can you be so heartless?" he accused.

Yang Ningyi rolled her eyes and pushed him towards the window. "Hurry up, I'm going to the wedding courtyard to pay respects to the old lady."

Seeing that he was determined, Mu Jing turned and kissed Yang Ningyi on the cheek, "I'm leaving, remember to miss me."

When Madame Wang received the message from the mandarin duck, she was so angry that she turned stupid. How could she make a mistake when talking about marriage?

However, since Mu Family gave her a lot of silver, for the sake of money, she could only go to Yang Mansion for another round. Her target was a relatively unpopular Duo'er, so Yang Mansion shouldn't have any objections, perhaps she would even happily agree.

Thinking of this, Madame Wang became happy again. This matchmaker's money was probably settled.

Happy called for a carriage, went to the Yang Mansion, and explained to the Madam Cheng about the Mu Family.

"Mistress Yang, it is all my fault. I was the one who made the wrong choice. The person Mistress Mu fancied is the Fifth Young Master, not Fourth Miss. I am truly sorry." Madame Wang accompanied him with a smile, taking all the blame for his actions.

She did not dare to hold the blame for the matter regarding Mu Family being the wrong person. What if there was a conflict between the two families, and if the marriage did not end, what would she do about the matchmaker's money?

Madam Cheng drank her tea as she listened to Madame Wang's words. A smile rose from the corner of her mouth as she asked, "What did Madame Wang say? How could I be mistaken about the topic of marriage?"

The Mu Family was indeed the wrong person. The person from that day in Ningyi's house was indeed Second Young Master Mu.

The matchmaker looked embarrassed, but she still smiled and said, "It's my fault. He's old, but his ears aren't sharp. He's got the wrong person for a while."

Madame Wang saw that the Madam Cheng was smiling and did not seem angry, so she gathered up her courage and said: "Mistress Yang, do you think we can settle this marriage?"

Madam Cheng laughed and said, "Alright, Spring Sprout, go get the invitation from the Fifth Young Master."

Hearing Madam Cheng's words, Madame Wang laughed so hard that the wrinkles on her face almost fell.

After exchanging the Heptune's invitation, Madame Wang flippantly went to the Mu Family to report back.

Madam Mu had asked Madame Wang to visit her a few more times because of the dragon incident. Feeling somewhat guilty, she gave Madame Wang a large red packet.

After getting a big reward, Madame Wang was very happy. She praised Yang Ningyi nicely in front of Mu Family, and also said some good words about Yang Family, how good his family style was, and how lenient the First Madam was towards others.

After exchanging invitations, the date was set, and the marriage between Mu Jing and Mu Jing was decided.

The matter between Mu Jing and himself had just been decided, and Shen Jingli immediately found out.

"This is a good thing. I saw through their little flirtation a long time ago." Shen Jingli was feeding Xun Er lean meat porridge, and when he heard Jin Yu's words, he could not help but laugh.

Xun Er was restless while in his arms, he had been twisting his body wanting to come down. Mu Chen, who was at the side, saw that he was in so much pain, reached out to grab him, trying to suppress the restless little guy.

"Be good and don't cause trouble."

Xun Er looked at his serious father, twisted his body, and no longer dared to move. He looked at Shen Jingli with his teary eyes, as if he was reporting Mu Chen's evil deeds to him.

Seeing him like that, Shen Jingli was a little reluctant, so he said to Jin Yu: "Jin Yu, bring Xun Er and play with him."

Jin Yu hurriedly carried Xun Er down.

Shen Jingli put down the bowl of porridge and asked Mu Chen: "What do you think about this matter?"

One was a cousin of the ancestor family, the other was a cousin of the ancestor family. They were both family, and if they truly loved each other, he would be happy to see it happen.

"It's pretty good." Mu Chen replied indifferently, he picked up his teacup and drank a cup of tea, then said slowly: There's something I need to tell you in advance.0

"What is it?"

"It will be the birthday of the empress dowager in a short period of time. We have to enter the palace to congratulate you on your birthday."

He had heard about this a long time ago, and was preparing the wedding gift. The jade ruyi was neither shameful nor offensive.

"I'm already preparing for this." No matter what, he was a County Prince, and knew a lot of things about the palace.

"The empress has sent an eunuch and a mama to teach you etiquette."

Shen Jingli frowned. Hey, why is there such a thing? At least tell me in advance.

"One more thing. There's a problem with the supply for the Northwest Army. Zhongping and I are going north to check on the situation."

"What's wrong with the military supply?" Isn't the Northwest Army the army camp that Mu Chen was in?

"It is still unclear, but news has come from His Highness's side that the Third Prince intends to intervene in the supply of military supplies." This was not a good thing.

Shen Jingli pondered for a moment, and felt that Mu Chen was extremely sincere. For such an important matter, he actually told him everything, without holding back. However, he was very happy to be trusted so much.

"Do you need me to do something?" He did not know much about medicinal herbs, so he had never dared to involve himself in the field of medicinal herbs. However, if he had a background, then the medicinal herbs business would be very profitable.

"You can stay at home with ease. I'm guessing that after the empress dowager's birthday, someone in the Marquis Zhen Yuan Mansion will want to see you. You should handle it carefully, don't worry about offending them.

These words were said extremely domineeringly. Mu Chen didn't seem to care one bit about Marquis Zhen Yuan Mansion, and there was even some contempt.

"Do you really not care about that position at all?" The position of Prince, after the death of Marquis Zhenyuan, he would be the rightful marquis and would still be able to protect his children for three generations. That was something many people couldn't hope for.

"With my strength, a mere marquis …" Mu Chen smiled and pulled Shen Jingli into his embrace, "You want to be Madam Hou?"

"Forget it, I don't want to be a lady." Madam, madam, it sounds like a bitch. Although his position in the dynasty was equivalent to that of a woman, he was still a man in his heart.

Mu Chen could not help but laugh, he knew that he would not like this title, "Is being my wife that bad?"

"You want to be my wife?" Shen Jingli retorted as he reached out his hand to take advantage of Mu Chen's waist.

Mu Chen laughed even more happily than before, his head rubbing against Shen Jingli's neck, "I will probably have to travel for a few months this time."

"Have a safe trip."

Just like that? Mu Chen frowned.

"Shouldn't you say something about missing me?" Most wives are so affectionate.

"You like it?" He was slightly surprised, Mu Shisi actually liked to hear those sweet words?

Mu Chen sighed, he knew that this man had a manly heart and wanted to take advantage of others, but did not say anything easily.
