Chapter 62: Which family are you from
After mid-June, the Qiqiao Festival is getting closer and closer.
Various lanterns have been laid out on the streets of Shuofang. The colorful lanterns and the images of various small animals and flowers have made the already crowded Zhongshan Road unknowingly become more congested.
Many people were suddenly attracted by the pleasing lanterns as they walked. As soon as they stopped, the people shopping behind them also stopped.
Mu Ziyi shook her head helplessly at Cheng Yuqi and said with a wry smile: "It's so congested before the festival has arrived. I don't know if it's really time for Qiqiao Festival, and this road can still be moved."
Cheng Yuqi's face was blushing, and she was full of curiosity about everything about Shuofang. Today, Xi Yunfei agreed to accompany her to see Shuofang's style.
However, because Xi Junmai suddenly came back, the two brothers seemed to have something important to discuss, so Xi Yunfei could only entrust Mu Ziyi to take Cheng Yuqi to familiarize himself with the environment in the inner city.
"Sister Mu, this place is more lively than Chang'an. Although the streets are not as wide as Chang'an, it is better than every building that is unique. And..." Cheng Yuqi looked at the road and stomped her feet cutely: "This kind of cement road is not muddy at all, and there is no dust."
Mu Ziyi covered her mouth and chuckled. She had been to Chang'an several times. The most prosperous streets in Chang'an were paved with bluestone slabs. Although they were quite flat, they were incomparable to Shuofang. They were mud and garbage everywhere.
Mu Ziyi pulled Cheng Yuqi to the ditch beside him, pointed to the clear ditch, and said with honor: "Actually, this is what surprised me the most. Look at how clean the water is."
Cheng Yuqi didn't notice it at first, but when she looked at it, she was shocked and couldn't stop talking: "Why is there no garbage in the sewage channel?"
Mu Ziyi squatted down, reached out to scoop up a little bit of clear water, and said funny: "Shuofang's drainage canal is not used to discharge sewage, but to prevent water from being taken away. Erlang said, who dares to throw garbage into the canal and directly lock the dungeon for three days. You don't know that at the beginning, the dungeons of the city garrison were not enough to be kept in the crowd. After all, everyone's habits were not changed so quickly."
Cheng Yuqi also squatted down like Mu Ziyi, looked at the big carp in the water with red, white and black, and said with longing: "There are so many magical things in this place. Yesterday's celebration shocked me so much that I didn't know what to say. The facilities and prosperity in this city make people linger. It would be great if I could live here all the time."
When Mu Ziyi heard this, she smiled, reached out and patted her on the shoulder, helped her stand up, and pointed to the flower building not far away, saying, "Sister hasn't taken you to see the truly magical things. Erlang has already told me to let me treat you well first... Also, Jinghuayuan will be your exclusive house in the future. You can live as long as you want."
The two walked into the flower building holding hands, and the two maids who had been waiting for a long time came forward to take the initiative to take off their sunscreen.
"Sister Mu, Mr. Lang asked us to prepare bath soup and snacks. Should you two take a bath and massage first, or go to the third floor to have something to eat first?"
Cheng Yuqi was amazed at the hall full of flowers. When she heard that Xi Yunfei had someone prepare bath soup and snacks in advance, she hurriedly asked, "Will Erlang come here too soon?"
The female servant bowed to Cheng Yuqi and nodded with a smile and said, "Mr. I will come here in half an hour and I will enjoy lunch with my two sisters at that time."
Mu Ziyi held Cheng Yuqi's little hand and said with a smile: "It turns out that my sister is capable. Erlang has never taken time to have dinner with her sister in his busy schedule."
Cheng Yuqi felt happy, but she was not good at showing it in front of outsiders, and she just smiled foolishly with a red face.
At this moment, several rich-made ladies walked in behind the two. One of them first turned his eyes on Mu Ziyi, and a stunning look flashed in his eyes. He thought to himself that he was so beautiful, and he must be so beautiful to seduce a man.
Then he noticed Cheng Yuqi, who was facing away from them, and as he looked, he suddenly became happy.
"Yoyou, isn't this Xiao Qier?!"
The woman took two steps at once and met him. She pulled Yuqi's little hand very well: "Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk t
Cheng Yuqi was originally happy because Xi Yunfei was worried about her. After seeing the person, her expression suddenly changed. However, out of upbringing, she still responded politely: "Qi'er has met aunt... I, I just arrived the day before yesterday."
The woman nodded with a smile, patted Cheng Yuqi's back of her hand and said excitedly: "Okay, come to Shuofang. My family is also in Shuofang now. If he knew you were here, he would be very happy."
Cheng Yuqi frowned slightly and glanced at Mu Ziyi secretly. Seeing that there was always a smile on her face, it seemed that there was no fluctuation because of the woman's words, but Mu Ziyi's smart person must have guessed that she was almost inseparable.
Cheng Yuqi suddenly became panicked and quickly pulled her hand out of the woman's arms, responding awkwardly: "Auntie was joking... That, Qier and her friends still have something to do, so she won't disturb her aunt and her aunts."
"Uh?" The woman was stunned. Today, Cheng Yuqi seemed to be deliberately avoiding her.
Could it be that Lu Er did something wrong and made this little girl angry?
The woman frowned slightly. Seeing that Cheng Yuqi and the vixen were about to go upstairs, she hurriedly raised her heels.
"Oh, Xiao Qier, wait for aunt..."
But before she could step on the steps, the two female guards jumped out and stopped her directly.
"This noble man please respect himself. The second floor needs to hold a silver VIP card to go up."
The woman was just in a hurry, and then she remembered that she had only applied for the primary copper card to play cards. As for silver and gold cards, she was too expensive and she was reluctant to take the money, so she never applied for it.
"Well, the two girls have just seen it. The little girl in front of me is a relative. Maybe next year she will call me "my mother". Can't all the VIPs here bring one person up there? Isn't this a bad rule?"
The two female guards looked at each other and turned their heads to look at Cheng Yuqi.
Seeing this, the woman hurriedly shouted to Cheng Yuqi's back: "Xiao Qier, aunt has something to say to you, let them get out of here."
Cheng Yuqi didn't expect this woman to be so entangled. She was already very dissatisfied with her marriage with Zheng Lu. At this time, she saw Zheng Lu's mother talking wildly and directly regarded herself as an elder. She felt angry and was about to be angry.
Mu Ziyi reached out and held her fist, whispered and comforted: "Don't be angry about such a small person. As long as the husband is here, no one in the world dares to force you to do things you don't want to do, even if she is the head of a family of any kind, leave this matter to my sister, you can go up first."
Cheng Yuqi looked at Mu Ziyi in a daze, her eyes slowly turned red, and she nodded slightly with her lips, but she was very scared in her heart, afraid that Mu Ziyi would tell Xi Yunfei about her engagement. What if Xi Yunfei disliked her for this?
But Mu Ziyi's next approach directly subverted her perception.
Mu Ziyi turned around and her eyebrows were slightly cold, she looked at the woman with a condescending voice, "Which family are you from?"
The woman didn't expect someone to dare to talk to her like this. She was stunned for a while and was about to get angry at Mu Ziyi, but her sleeve was suddenly pulled by her companions...
