The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor
Chapter 22 Encountering an Old Friend on the Cuju Field
The next morning, Li Muxia got up early and tidied herself up. She handed the drawings she had made the day before to Cui'er and asked her to find a craftsman to make them. Hong'er came over and glanced at the drawings, asking in confusion, "Miss, what is this?"
Li Muxia smiled mysteriously: "Badminton."
Seeing the two looking puzzled, Li Muxia added, "Anyway, it's a good thing. Once it's finished, I'll teach you how to play with it."
Upon hearing Li Muxia say she would teach them how to play, Hong'er said with a fawning expression, "This badminton game sounds like a lot of fun. Thank you, Miss."
Cui'er accepted the order and went to find the craftsmen, while Li Muxia took Hong'er to the front hall to meet Li Anjin and Li Anran. Li Anjin was dressed very smartly today, in a clean and neat white outfit, with her long hair tied up high, looking very dashing.
When they arrived at the Cuju field by carriage, quite a few young masters and ladies were already there, chatting and jostling each other. Li Muxia and her companions looked around but didn't see anyone familiar. However, because of Li Anjin's arrival, many young ladies cast admiring glances at them.
Li Anjin was already used to this. He led Li Muxia and the others to a less crowded section of the stands on the east side. As soon as they arrived, they saw Shangguan Wenya waving excitedly at them, "Ran'er, Muxia, come over here, over here..." She pointed to the seats next to her, indicating that they should sit with her. After settling everyone in, Li Anjin went to find his teammates.
Li Muxia and Li Anran waved and greeted her as they walked towards Shangguan Wenya. The three of them started chatting as soon as they met. Shangguan Wenya had arrived a little earlier than Li Muxia and the others, so she was currently sharing the information they had gathered earlier with them.
It has to be said, this Shangguan Wenya is somewhat of a social climber. Li Muxia even suspected that this person might also be a time traveler, and couldn't help but blurt out, "Airplane."
Li Anran and Shangguan Wenya were both taken aback by Li Muxia's sudden remark and asked in unison, "What?"
Seeing that she had actually asked the question, Li Muxia chuckled and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of this word. It doesn't mean anything, you don't need to worry about it."
Shangguan Wenya didn't mind and started sharing the information she had obtained, excitedly saying, "Anran, Muxia, guess who I just saw?"
Without waiting for Li Muxia and the others to answer, she excitedly continued, "It's the Minister of the Court of Judicial Review, Jun Mochen! Ah~ Minister Jun is so handsome! Oh, right, several princes and nobles are here today too. I heard that the Fourth Prince is also participating in the competition today."
After speaking, she seemed to remember something and looked at Li Muxia with some worry. Li Anran also realized what was happening and looked at Li Muxia as well.
Li Muxia also saw the worried looks from Shangguan Wenya and Li Anran, and of course understood what they meant. She quickly waved her hand and said nonchalantly, "Relax, I don't care anymore. Don't worry, I'm fine. Besides, have you forgotten that I have amnesia? So I don't remember that relationship at all."
The two were slightly relieved after hearing what Li Muxia said.
"Mu Xia"
Li Muxia and the others were chatting happily when they heard someone calling her. The three of them turned around and looked at the source of the sound.
A woman wearing a pink dress, cinched at the waist with a pinkish-purple belt, with a slender waist that could be encircled by a single hand, and a sweet smile on her beautiful face, was looking happily at Li Muxia and the others.
"It really is Mu Xia. You've lost so much weight, I almost didn't recognize you." Her voice was melodious and pleasant. As she spoke, she looked at Li Anran, paused slightly, and her expression became a little unnatural. "Is this Ran'er next to you? Mu Xia often mentioned you to me a few years ago. Miss Shangguan is here too."
At this moment, Shangguan Wenya suddenly spoke up: "Miss Feng, I'm sorry, we don't have any seats left here. Please look for another place."
Shangguan Wenya dislikes Feng Jingxin very much and has seen through Feng Jingxin's character. She pretends to be pitiful and weak to attract men's attention.
Li Muxia now knew who it was—it was none other than her fake best friend.
Hearing Shangguan Wenya's ruthless dismissal, Feng Jingxin hated this wretched woman to death, but on the surface she said with a wronged expression, "But what did Jingxin do to offend Miss Shangguan?"
Upon hearing Feng Jingxin's words, a young lady behind her quickly said, "Miss Shangguan, there are still many seats here. There are clearly plenty of seats. Are you deliberately targeting us?"
Seeing that someone was speaking up for her, Feng Jingxin was secretly pleased, but continued to say with a wronged expression, "Jingxin and Muxia are good friends. They used to sit together to watch the game. I only came up to say hello today because I saw Muxia. If you don't want to, Jingxin can leave."
Li Muxia now understands that Feng Jingxin is definitely a green tea bitch.
At this moment, the young lady who had spoken up looked around and said, "Why leave? This is the best spot to watch the game, and it's also the closest to the podium. These seats don't belong to Miss Shangguan, anyone can sit here. Jingxin, let's sit here."
Feng Jingxin looked at the young lady with a troubled expression: "Mengjie, it seems that Miss Shangguan and the others don't welcome us. Let's leave."
Upon hearing that Feng Jingxin still wanted to stir up trouble for Shangguan Wenya, Li Muxia quickly said, "Miss Feng, you should find a seat quickly, or there might not be any left."
Upon hearing Li Muxia's words, Feng Jingxin understood the underlying meaning. Seeing several young ladies approaching, she immediately stopped talking and, finding no one next to Li Muxia, sat down beside her. The young lady named Meng Jie also sat down next to Feng Jingxin.
Feng Jingxin sat down and affectionately took Li Muxia's arm: "Jingxin hasn't seen Muxia for a long time. I have a lot to say to you. I won't disturb Miss Shangguan by sitting here."
Li Muxia pulled her arm away and said in a flat tone, "It's quite hot in the summer, so let's keep our distance. If we get too close, we can smell your sweat."
Feng Jingxin's face twitched slightly. She awkwardly withdrew her hand and secretly sniffed herself. She smelled wonderful. She had been scented with incense all night yesterday and was wearing a sachet today. How could she smell bad?
Seeing Li Muxia chatting with Li Anran and the others again, she wanted to tear those three smiling faces to shreds, but she held back.
