Quick Wear: The soft cannon fodder turns into a heartthrob and seduce
Chapter 228: The Frail and Delicate Cousin (27)
That day, the maidservant beside the second wife came to Mu Zhou.
After hearing the purpose of the visit, Mu Zhou dressed up a little and went to the second lady's yard.
The Second Madam held her hand affectionately, as if there had never been any disagreement between them.
"In the blink of an eye, Zhou'er is about to get married. In the past few years, your aunt has neglected you a lot. I hope Zhou'er can forgive you."
The second wife looked very regretful and wanted to reconcile with her.
Mu Zhou nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, the second wife had many valuable items presented.
"These can be considered as your aunt's dowry."
"Thank you, auntie."
Seeing Mu Zhou's grateful expression, the second wife felt relieved.
The previous incident where her daughter failed to frame someone and was instead set up by Mu Zhou made her wary of Mu Zhou, so she didn't dare to reveal any flaws today, for fear that Mu Zhou would not believe her.
But now it seems that Mu Zhou is still a naive little girl. She has some cleverness, but not much, and she can't beat her at all.
Just seeing these valuable things made him so excited. He is really short-sighted.
The Second Madam winked at the nanny, who immediately understood and brought two bowls of blood bird's nest, one in front of Mu Zhou and one in front of the Second Madam.
Mammy said attentively:
"This bird's nest is the best for women. Madam usually doesn't want to eat it, but today when the young lady came, Madam specially asked me to make it."
Mu Zhou glanced at the bird's nest and said, "There's no rush for that." She then said to the Second Madam, "Aunt, I have something personal to tell you about the prince. Can you..."
She shyly glanced at the nanny and maid in the room.
The Second Madam guessed that she probably wanted to ask about the prince's private affairs.
Although she felt annoyed, she couldn't get angry with Mu Zhou because Mu Zhou hadn't eaten the bird's nest yet.
So she smiled kindly and waved her hand for everyone to leave.
As soon as the person left, Mu Zhou asked a lot of questions about Song Wenchao's past.
"Aunt, you know that in the entire Qi Palace, you and I are the closest. When I become the Crown Prince's Consort, we will have to take care of each other."
The Second Madam could only fakely smile and nod, watching her pick up and put down the bird's nest several times, her heart also in turmoil.
Finally, Mu Zhou said he was thirsty and took the bird's nest and took a bite:
"This bird's nest is really delicious. Auntie, please eat it quickly while it's hot."
Seeing her swallow it, the second lady finally felt relieved and picked up the spoon to take a bite.
The two of them ate all the bird's nest.

As the wedding date draws closer, the Second Lady quietly waits for news from Fanghua Pavilion.
But what he found out every day was that the prince had sent some rare things, and Mu Zhou did not feel unwell at all.
The second wife couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
She had clearly given someone a sufficient dose of that medicine.
At the same time, the second wife also noticed changes in her body.
She had nightmares every day, couldn't eat well during the day, suffered from neurasthenia, was always inexplicably frightened, and from time to time, she would say she saw ghosts.
This made the maidservants who served her tremble with fear.
Gradually, her mental state became worse and worse. She acted crazy all day long and smashed everything she saw. Occasionally, when she was sober, she suddenly remembered.
Aren’t these the symptoms that would be caused by the medicine she gave Mu Zhou?
Why does it appear on her?
Is it...
Her eyes were bloodshot and she wanted to go find Mu Zhou to settle the score and tell everyone around her how vicious and terrible Mu Zhou was and that they had all been deceived by her.
Unfortunately, she speaks like a madman now and no one believes what she says.
As her symptoms became more severe, the old lady finally made up her mind and had the second wife sent to a farm in the countryside before the prince's wedding.
The Prince of Qi’s Mansion cannot have a crazy second wife.
Before leaving, Mu Zhou went to see him off.
She looked at Second Madam Xu, who was tied up in the carriage and still struggling, with a calm expression.
After seeing Mu Zhou, Xu's confused eyes became clear for a moment. She wanted to say something, but unfortunately the food in her mouth made her unable to make a sound.
Mu Zhou seemed to know what she was going to say and smiled slowly:
"That's right, the bowl of bird's nest you drank was drugged."
Xu's eyes widened, and she tried to sit up suddenly, but unfortunately her movements were restricted and she couldn't move.
Mu Zhou continued to speak slowly:
"Oh, right, there's also Song Yurou. I was the one who drugged her and Wei Yun, and then had someone catch them. And... I was the one who told Wei Yun that she pushed the concubine and made him childless."
She said these words slowly, and Xu's eyes were bloodshot, and she looked like she wanted to eat her.
But Mu Zhou didn't care.
Because she knew that the medicine Xu gave her would not only make her mentally ill and crazy, but also would not allow her to live long.
Looking at Xu's terrified and hateful expression, Mu Zhou got off the carriage with satisfaction.
She wiped away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and returned home reluctantly.
*
The wedding date is fast approaching.
Mu Zhou suddenly discovered that no matter where she went these days, more and more people followed her, either openly or secretly.
She didn't think much about it after she found out.
Because she was marrying into the Prince of Qi's mansion, she moved to the house bought by her mother the day before the wedding.
Originally, Xie Zhaoqing only bought a small courtyard, but Song Wenchao waved his hand and sent someone to give him a large house.
Of course Xie Zhaoqing couldn't accept it, but before she could refuse, the people sent by Song Wenchao persuaded her with both emotional and logical appeals.
The day Mu Zhou marries into Prince Qi's mansion will surely attract the attention of the entire capital.
If she were to marry out of a small courtyard, it would probably cause some criticism.
Therefore, even if it is just to support Mu Zhou, he should accept this house.
Xie Zhaoqing was persuaded.
So, Mu Zhou moved here the night before his wedding.
But as soon as she moved in, she found that there was a circle of guards outside.
Mu Zhou asked his mother curiously:
"Mom, was it like this before?"
Xie Zhaoqing shook his head, also confused.
Mu Zhou couldn't help but wonder, could it be that something unexpected happened in the court, and Song Wenchao was afraid of danger, so he was so nervous?
She didn't think any more about it, packed up early and went to bed.
She has to get up early tomorrow morning, so she needs to sleep a little longer.
Anyway, no matter what happens in the court, Song Wenchao will definitely be able to solve it, so she doesn't care.
But in fact, the truth is completely different from what Mu Zhou thought.
Outside the yard at this time.
Song Wenchao got off his horse and asked Shu Ting with a serious look:
"how?"
"My Lord, everything is as usual. Eleventh has sent a message saying that Madam is in a good mood and has gone to bed."
Song Wenchao's tense expression relaxed slightly, but his tone was still stern:
"Keep going, don't miss a single thing."
"Yes."
Song Wenchao walked into the yard and went all the way to Mu Zhou's door. After asking everyone to leave, he tiptoed to sit in front of Mu Zhou's bed and stared at her quietly.
He has been placing people in this position for some time and taking precautions for no other reason.
I was just afraid that Mu Zhou would regret it and run away from the marriage.
