Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi

It was a rare family gathering, and Li Changan's eyes were full of smiles. He looked lovingly at his daughter's belly, which had not yet bulged, and it seemed that a beautiful picture of a house full of children and grandchildren had already emerged before his eyes. He happily waved his hand and asked everyone to stay for a reunion dinner in the evening.

The atmosphere is quite harmonious.

Xiao Douxue had a very pleasant chat with Shi Jingchan and Yu Heng.

Shi Jingchan was able to chat with Helian Yun and Shen Chutang.

Wei Wushang looked at the attentive interaction between Xu Qingcheng and Mu Yao, ignored them, and sat down next to Li Changan and drank with him, making his father-in-law smile from ear to ear, and the smile on his face never stopped.

Only Wang Yanzhi sat alone, watching the interaction at the table with cold eyes and drinking alone.

Mu Yao felt distressed when she saw how out of place he was. Wang Yanzhi was aloof by nature and had few friends in the capital. The only person he could talk to was the Crown Prince Ye Qinghan. But her father said that since she married Wang Yanzhi, the Crown Prince had become distant from Wang Yanzhi. Now, the two of them had almost no contact in the court.

"Shaoyou, try the yam pastry made by Uncle Zhang. I asked him to make it specially for you." Mu Yao opened her thin lips slightly. She really wanted to sit next to him, but there was no seat left.

On Wang Yanzhi's left sat Wei Wushang, and on his right sat Xiao Douxue. One had a bad temper, and the other had a big mouth. She couldn't afford to offend either of them, so she didn't dare to speak.

Xu Qingcheng heard it most clearly. She glanced at him indifferently, reached out, picked up a piece of yam crisp and took a bite.

"Sir Wang, it tastes very good, you try it." He said lightly, sounding like a woman following her husband's lead. This made Wang Yanzhi put down his chopsticks that had been raised in the air.

"Lord Xu, please eat more if you like it. I still like the yam pastry that Yaoyao makes for me." Wang Yanzhi's tone was calm. He quickly glanced at Mu Yao and then returned his gaze to the wine glass.

Mu Yao secretly wiped her sweat and quickly shifted her gaze to the left. Suddenly she noticed the loneliness in Shen Chutang's eyes. She frowned slightly and was about to ask, but Yu Heng put a large piece of fish into her bowl and said with watery eyes: "Eat more, it's good for your health."

"Okay." Mu Yao had no choice but to shift her gaze and responded with a smile.

Unconsciously, an hour passed and the dinner ended in a "warm" atmosphere. Li Changan's face was flushed, and at this moment he was more relieved and proud than ever before.

Seeing her father happy, Mu Yao immediately promised that she would bring her husband back to Xiasi Garden for a reunion dinner every week in the future, which made Li Changan so happy that every part of his face glowed with brilliance.

After the large group returned to Mu Garden in a mighty manner, Mu Yao was shocked by the layout of the new house.

Beautiful! So beautiful! So beautiful that her heart ached.

Such a luxurious renovation must have been the work of Xiao Douxue.

All wooden floors were replaced with red sandalwood and huanghuali wood, and a layer of tung oil was applied on them. Each board has clear texture and bright color, which looks magnificent, rich and elegant at first glance.

The furniture was a set of old nanmu wood with golden threads, which dazzled Mu Yao and made her heart bleed.

This house is not as small and exquisite as "Suiyuan", but a large house with three entrances and three exits. In order to accommodate each husband, the garden part was specially converted into a new courtyard.

She could no longer estimate the cost of repairs, but one thing was certain, it was definitely more than the 10 million taels she had left for Wei Wushang and Xiao Douxue.

Buying a house cost eight million taels, and renovating it would cost more than double that. However, Xiao Douxue's face was full of pride, and he was looking at him eagerly, waiting for praise.

Mu Yao forced a smile and asked with a trembling heart, "Dou Xue, is the silver I gave you not enough? I'll make up for the extra amount."

"It's enough, it didn't cost much! Don't worry about it. How is it, is it beautiful? Is it generous?" Xiao Douxue raised his chin slightly, put his hands behind his back and looked at a certain place in front of him.

Following his gaze, Mu Yao's heart ached. The screen wall was carved from a piece of jade. Looking at its color, it seemed very similar to the imperial green jade lotus bag she gave to Ji Qi.

"Dou Xue, how much did you pay for this jade wall?" Mu Yaofu's face flushed abnormally and her breathing became rapid.

"Yaoyao, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Yu Heng's eyes never left Mu Yao from beginning to end. Noticing that her expression was different, he quickly strode forward and held her tightly in his arms.
