Family affection? Is it important to have rights?
Chapter 63: Getting to Know a Girl from an Aristocratic Family
Mu Tangxi's eyes curved slightly, "I am the Mu family's legitimate daughter, Mu Tangxi."
The An family and the Yi family are both famous families.
It seems she is lucky.
An Shulan and the other young ladies couldn't help but look at each other. Sure enough, when they saw those eyes, they vaguely guessed it.
Her age and eye color matched those of the young girl in the Prime Minister's Mansion who had never appeared in public.
The pride on An Shulan's face faded, and her tone became more intimate, "Your eyes are very special."
Yi Linlang also came over, looked at the pair of clear and bright amber eyes in amazement, and asked curiously.
"This is the first time I've seen eyes of this color. What causes it?"
"Did any of your ancestors have eyes of this color?"
Mu Tangxi was confused by this question. In fact, she didn't know why her eyes were this color.
Both her father and biological mother had black hair and dark eyes, but she had light eyes.
When she heard in her previous life that she was swapped with her biological mother, she thought her biological mother had light-colored eyes like her, but when she saw it with her own eyes, her hopes were dashed.
Mu Tangxi said hesitantly: "Maybe my ancestors had eyes of this color?"
His father's parents were farmers. After he passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer, his parents died.
She had never heard her biological mother's parents mentioned, but they should have passed away too.
So...she doesn't know.
An Shulan and the other young ladies gladly accepted Mu Tangxi's invitation to join their discussion.
Mu Tangxi could see that they were all led by An Shulan. The surname An, the surname An...
Queen An!
Mu Tangxi finally remembered that the current emperor's queen was from the An family, so she should be An Shulan's aunt!
No wonder.
Mu Tangxi's eyes curved slightly, and when they were discussing excitedly, she started to say a few words.
Don't think that just because someone appears friendly on the outside, they really think that way in their hearts.
So she couldn't show that she knew more than them, otherwise it would damage An Shulan's prestige.
Then how can she continue to stay here?
She just had to agree with them. They brought her along purely to get to know the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Moreover, Mu Tangxi slightly turned his body and glanced behind him with the corner of his eye. Sure enough, his mother was also looking at him.
Let's just stay here.
If I go back now, I'm afraid my mother will dislike me.
Mu Tangxi turned around and stared at An Shulan with shining eyes, as if he was fascinated by what she was saying.
An Shulan felt a little uncomfortable being stared at with such fiery eyes, but the sense of pleasure deep in her heart was rising sharply.
There was a faint blush on that pretty face.
The more she spoke, the more it seemed as if she was applying all the knowledge she had learned over the years.
The ladies around were also fascinated by what she was saying, and they became more and more impressed by Miss An's knowledge.
After all the guests had arrived and the flower-viewing banquet was about to begin, An Shulan stopped with a look of reluctance.
The look he gave Mu Tangxi was more genuine than before. "You can come to An Mansion to see me often in the future. I will tell you more about the ingenuity of the poetry collection!"
Mu Tangxi smiled widely, her face filled with joy, "Okay! Sister, you can come to the Mu Mansion to see me in the future!"
The ladies returned to their seats, and Mu Tangxi also returned to her mother.
The smile is still on his face, like a mask he wears all the time.
Her mother smiled with satisfaction and praised her. Her attitude towards her was completely different from that of her mother in her previous life.
Because the well-behaved and useful her is completely different from the inflexible and worthless her in her previous life.
But the expression she wanted to see was not just this...
Ever since she returned to the age of ten, she had wanted to seek revenge on them without caring about anything. However, not only did she not have that much power now, but it ended so quickly, which was a bit too easy for them.
She was still too young and had no strong helpers around her. Even if she used the simplest method to kill them, her hands did not have enough strength to stab them to death.
But don't worry, what she is best at is waiting.
In her previous life, she was turned into a human pig. In the excruciating pain, she did not bite her tongue to commit suicide in order to get relief. Instead, she tried her best to spread the news, although she failed in the end.
Now it seems that she was quite kind in her previous life.
So it is better to let them taste the power first and then let them fall hard.
At that time, their faces must be very interesting. The smiles from the previous moment will freeze in a funny way, their facial muscles will lose control, and their eyes will become more interesting.
Beneath Mu Tangxi's long and thick eyelashes lies suppressed madness and rationality, but the corners of her mouth are still in a perfect smile.
Soon the flower-viewing banquet began. The young master of the Xu family did not show up. Mu Tangxi guessed that he should be sitting behind the screen choosing a wife.
The general's wife didn't say much. She just waved her hand and asked the servants to bring up the precious flowers.
Green peony, orchid, chrysanthemum, azalea...
Flowers of various colors competed with each other for beauty, and their fragrance lingered throughout the entire banquet.
The musicians nearby also started playing the guzheng, creating an elegant atmosphere.
Mu Tangxi's seat was in the front, so he could see closely that the general's wife's eyes would occasionally glance towards a screen nearby.
It seems her cousin is watching from behind.
The ladies had no intention of appreciating the flowers, but sat upright in their seats, smiling gracefully.
The flower-viewing banquet is just a cover. Its essence is to select a wife for the future heir to the general's mansion, who will be the future general's wife if nothing unexpected happens.
Her cousin was still very attractive, and many female relatives came to the banquet.
After all, it is easier to be chosen as the wife of the heir to the general's mansion than as the prince's wife.
A row of maids took turns serving tea to the guests. Seeing that everything was ready, the general's wife said, "I am very happy that you have come, but just looking at the flowers is a bit boring. How about we play flying flowers?"
Everyone agreed readily.
Mu Tangxi was sipping tea. It was good tea with flower petals floating in it, which was very elegant.
When she heard what the general's wife said, she was not surprised at all. This was the beginning of a test of the talents of women of marriageable age.
But, she shouldn't have to participate, right?
Mu Tangxi looked at his mother questioningly. Xu Jingshu felt his gaze looking back at her and shook her head.
She brought her daughter here just to help her adapt and let others get to know her daughter.
Besides, why would the general's wife embarrass a young girl?
Isn't it bullying to compare her with other girls who have reached marriageable age?
Mu Tangxi felt relieved and continued to look at the general's wife.
"Since everyone agrees, let's use flowers as the keyword!"
The general's wife said with a smile.
The theme of a flower viewing banquet is, of course, flowers.
