Hongxiu curled her lips, now she had figured out Mu Qiaoxi's thoughts.
Although she said it was scary, in her heart, she always hoped that people would be good.
The words may not sound good, but what the lady does has always been real. In this case, of course, whatever the lady likes, just do it.
"I don't care about that much. I have to protect the lady. If the lady is well, Hongxiu will be happy! The lady is always right!"
Mu Qiaoxi looked helplessly at Hongxiu, who had an adoring look on her face.
What a silly girl.
The master and servant returned to the courtyard, and Mu Qiaoxi entered the study and placed a stack of books on the table.
"Hongxiu, go out after noon, list all these books, and buy new ones accordingly."
Hong Xiu quickly went to write down all the names in the book one by one.
"Miss, aren't these the military books you have been reading all this time?" The eldest lady planned to give in to his wishes, so these military books were given to Princess Changle as a meeting gift.
Mu Qiaoxi nodded in disbelief.
"Of course, how can the gift for the princess be something I have read through? That's why I asked you to prepare new ones."
Hongxiu understood, and after copying the titles of the old books, she planned to put them back in the bookcase.
"I have read all these old books. You can take them to the woodshed and ask Mo Yan to light the fire."
Mo Yan is not stupid. When these things are sent to the woodshed, he should look through them before burning them, right?
No matter, she has done her job anyway, and the rest will be left to fate.
Hong Xiu was stunned and couldn't help but say, "But Miss, we just bought these books. Wouldn't it be a pity to send them as firewood like this?"
Mu Qiao Xi already has a reputation for being extravagant and lewd. If she continues to be so wasteful, if that bad woman Mu Qiao Ling finds out about it, who knows what kind of fuss will be made about it.
Mu Qiaoxi leaned lazily on the beauty's couch, her tone full of impatience.
"Have you figured out who the master is? Do you need to teach me how to do things? The Marquis's house is so big, and it doesn't even have this little money?"
A series of arrogant words that Hong Xiu would have been extremely disgusted with in the past.
But now, Hongxiu just wanted to step forward and cover the eldest lady's mouth.
It doesn't matter if she heard it, it would be great if someone else heard it!
When Mu Qiaoxi saw Hongxiu reluctantly following her instructions, she felt a little tired. She yawned and planned to lean on the beauty's couch and take a nap.
Hongxiu hurriedly opened the windows and doors to facilitate ventilation and also wanted Mu Qiaoxi to sleep cooler.
Mu Qiao Xi glanced around the courtyard, and Mu Qiao Ling's face suddenly appeared in her mind. Mu Qiao Xi felt as if she was physically unwell.
Sensing her displeasure, Hong Xiu quickly stepped forward and asked in a low voice.
"Did the slave make too much noise?" Hongxiu thought she had disturbed Mu Qiaoxi.
But Mu Qiaoxi sat up directly and ordered softly, "When you come back from buying books, remember to go to the kitchen and ask someone to cook a bowl of mint, snow pear and bird's nest soup to relieve the heat, and find a decent bowl to put it in."
Although Hongxiu didn't know the purpose of Mu Qiaoxi's order, she just thought that Mu Qiaoxi wanted to eat it, so she agreed.
Hongxiu worked very efficiently. When she came back with the bird's nest soup, Mu Qiaoxi's sleepiness had not dissipated.
Mu Qiaoxi took a look at the weather outside. The sun was shining brightly, and it was already the hottest time. The ice cubes in the ice jar had gradually melted into a jar of water.
Hongxiu's face was also covered with sweat. When she saw Mu Qiaoxi waking up, she put the tray in her hand in front of her.
"Miss, the bird's nest soup is ready, please try it quickly."
Mu Qiaoxi just pushed the tray away gently.
"This is not what I want to endure. You should go back to the house and rest. I will go to my father's study."
Hongxiu didn't even understand what Mu Qiaoxi said, but saw her pick up the bird's nest and walk out into the sun.
Outside the study room.
Mu Qiaoxi's arrival surprised the guards guarding the door. The eldest lady actually showed her filial piety?
The guard briefly checked the bird's nest soup that Mu Qiaoxi brought, and after seeing that there was nothing unusual, he let her enter the study.
"The weather is dry and the heat is unbearable. Xi'er is very worried about his father's health and came here to visit him."
Hearing what Mu Qiaoxi said, Mu Zhen put down the pen in his hand and looked at his eldest daughter with loving eyes.
"You, you, you are really a ghost. Tell me, what do you like again?"
Mu Zhen naturally took her flattery as a sign that he wanted something, jewelry, clothes. In the past, Mu Qiaoxi would also use coquettish ways to pester him to get them.
But I have never received such filial piety.
When Mu Qiaoxi heard this, she sat down on the desk angrily, her tone a little more coquettish.
"My daughter kindly made her father a soup to relieve the heat. Naturally, she was worried about his health, but my father thought I had evil intentions!"
Seeing Mu Qiaoxi looking so angry, Mu Zhen felt very good.
"Okay, okay, it's my father's fault. Xi'er is here to visit my father."
As he said that, Mu Zhen put the bird's nest soup in front of him and tasted it carefully.
Seeing that Mu Zhen's mood gradually improved, Mu Qiaoxi folded her arms and said calmly.
"Well, I don't lack anything. Food and clothing are all the best. What can I want?"
It was rare for Mu Zhen to hear Mu Qiao Xi say such words. He raised his eyebrows slightly but did not speak, but was waiting for Mu Qiao Xi's next words.
"My sister is pitiful. My mother specially prepared spices for me. If I hadn't given them to me, my sister wouldn't have known about them. All the good things in the house were given to me before I thought of my sister. The same goes for the servants in the family.
It's really a disservice to my sister to be effective."
When Mu Zhen heard this, he didn't think of anything and sighed.
"Although your mother is remarried, she is kind-hearted by nature and has always behaved like a mistress. She must have loved you and loved you more. Fortunately, you are a sensible child and know how to care for your sister."
Mu Zhen was very satisfied with Mu Qiao Xi's sensibleness.
Mu Qiaoxi casually grabbed a paperweight on the table and played with it.
"My father must also know about the Hundred Flowers Banquet. Naturally, I am willing to let my sister go with me. But according to my mother's intention, I want my sister to be a maid. Isn't this inappropriate?"
Mu Zhen pondered for a moment, but had no choice but to say: "After all, your sister's identity is here. The princess did not invite her, so she had to make this decision."
Mu Qiaoxi perked up instantly and said seriously: "I know my mother's considerations are not wrong, but it's too unfair for my sister to be like this. Father, you can't be as partial as your mother. Why don't you give it to your sister?"
Some compensation?"
