My Lord, please respect yourself. I am the wife of a marquis.
Chapter 28 Haven’t I made enough funny stories because of my wife?
The mourning hall was set up in the main hall. Because Princess Kangping had no children, she found two children from the royal family and had them kneel in the mourning hall as filial sons.
The emperor did not come, so the eldest princess was in charge.
Su Muxi met people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion at the door, greeted Old Madam He, and then led the people into the Princess's Mansion behind the Marquis' Mansion.
"Princess," although he was dressed as a housekeeper, his voice was filled with excitement.
"Is everything going well in the mansion?" Su Muxi made a gesture, indicating that he should pay attention to the occasion.
The man turned serious in an instant, "Don't worry, Princess. Everything is fine."
Su Muxi nodded, knowing that her third brother and mother were fine and had already reunited with Ah Da, and her heart finally settled down.
After the worship, Su Muxi was asked questions by the princess. A courtyard not far from the mourning hall was cleared for the princess to rest.
When Su Muxi arrived, there were already quite a few people sitting inside.
Su Muxi's dress was really eye-catching, and she just happened to wear the same dress as Princess Jin. As the saying goes, wearing the same dress is not a big deal, but whoever is ugly will be embarrassed. The Dong Shi in the story of Dong Shi Xiou Pin refers to her.
Su Muxi didn't care at all and greeted the princess. But it was a pity for those women who were pretending to cry. They wanted to put their handkerchiefs on their faces for fear that they would laugh out loud.
The princess didn't need to worry and said angrily, "You are an honest person. Come and sit over here."
Su Muxi sat obediently on the side, but she was too tall, standing out from the crowd, and people kept looking at her.
After answering the eldest princess's question, Su Muxi stood up and said goodbye.
Not long after leaving the courtyard, I heard a voice calling, "Cousin, wait a minute."
Su Muxi stopped and said, "Princess Jin is well."
"It's been a few days since we last met. I'm free today, so let's go together!"
"I'm afraid that's not possible. I have to go to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion today."
Jiang Wanning didn't expect her to refuse so straightforwardly. She felt more and more uncomfortable because Su Muxi's last sentence was too mellow. She was hungry every day and lived in fear, afraid that her secret would be discovered.
In the past, whenever she made a fuss, He Yuncheng would come over. But now, no matter how she made a fuss, He Yuncheng would not come.
Jiang Wanning followed her footsteps, "Is your cousin's injury healed? It's all because of me..."
"Princess, be careful with your words," Su Muxi interrupted her, "Even if you don't want to lose face, I still want to live. Don't say these things that can cause misunderstandings in the future."
"Ma'am, I was looking for you. Why are you here?"
Su Muxi looked at Xiao Yunjin who came to the rescue and gave him a mocking smile, "Your Highness, you came at the right time. The Princess said we are on the way. Do you want to give us a ride?"
Xiao Yunjin was stunned. He found Jiang Wanning when he got closer. It was all because Su Muxi was too tall. He recognized the figure at first sight.
"Greetings, Princess. I'm afraid it's a bad omen. I have to take my wife back to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion soon."
Even the reasons were the same. Jiang Wanning straightened his clothes and smiled gently, "Cousin, my cousin's wife seems to have misunderstood me. Last time at the waterside..."
"Someone come here," Xiao Yunjin interrupted her and called the maid over, "The princess needs to go to the toilet, why don't you help her quickly."
"We have something to do, so we'll leave first. Bye." Xiao Yunjin pulled the person and was about to leave.
Jiang Wanning waved the maid's hand away. "Why are you pretending? Your clothes are just imitations of mine. Ugly people are more likely to act strangely."
Su Muxi followed behind him, but she didn't quite understand his behavior. She turned around and glanced at the tearful face, "Sir, there's no need to be like this."
Xiao Yunjin glanced at her sideways and said, "I promised Madam that I would not see her again, so I will do it."
"I thought you were in the waterside pavilion, and there was some secret I didn't see."
Xiao Yunjin did not refute, but just quickened his pace, waited for the carriage to arrive, stuffed the people in, and then went in himself.
"Fuxing, go back home."
The carriage moved slowly. Su Muxi sat on the cushion, playing with the Buddhist beads on her wrist. "Why are you so angry? If someone sees you like this, I don't know what jokes will be spread tomorrow."
"Haven't I told enough jokes about my wife?"
Su Muxi didn't say anything. The two of them were indeed a joke in the capital now.
She stopped talking, but Xiao Yunjin started talking, "I explained the matter of the waterside pavilion to you but you didn't listen. Now you are acting like this again. Madam, are you jealous?"
Su Muxi just smiled but didn't say anything. Xiao Yunjin felt that her smile was fake for some reason. He leaned over and asked, "Madam, is your silence a sign of consent?"
He blocked the person with his hand wearing a Buddhist string, "Prince, do you think this dress is familiar?"
Xiao Yunjin nodded, his lips just touching her fingers, his eyes becoming even deeper.
"The clouds resemble clothes, the flowers resemble beauty, the spring breeze blows across the threshold and the dew is gorgeous." Su Muxi withdrew her hand, "Your Highness has a normal vision, so there is no need to explain."
"Madam, are you wearing this dress here just to make a comparison?"
Xiao Yunjin grabbed the hand that had withdrawn and pressed it against his chest, "Then Madam, you know that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Your every frown and smile has touched my heart."
Su Muxi pushed the man away with force. "The prince is indeed a clever talker, but you misunderstood. For today's worship, you must wear light-colored clothes, and I only have this one thing to imitate the dress."
Xiao Yunjin fell down on the soft stool, and it was obvious that Su Muxi had used some strength.
That day in the peach forest, when he first saw her wearing this dress, he really couldn't help laughing. Su Muxi asked him why he laughed, and he casually praised her with those two sentences.
Thinking back now, I still feel like laughing. Su Muxi must have had feelings for him at that time. The clothes she said she wanted to treasure were worn at a funeral. I'm afraid she won't be happy at all now.
