Absolutely! My maid was also reborn after traveling through time

On the morning of New Year's Eve, the snow finally stopped.

Red lanterns were decorated everywhere in the Shen residence, creating a joyous scene.

Shen Qinglan learned paper-cutting with Yan'er in Wenlan Courtyard, and she didn't want to cut it after a while.

Sure enough, it is more convenient to make this thing industrially. Those craftsmen are really amazing, and she can't do it at all.

"Miss, the servant on the second door brought a box of hibiscus cakes, saying it was from Shuibi Building." Xing'er took a box of cakes into the room.

"Shuibilou? Why did you bring hibiscus cake?" Yan'er was puzzled.

"But it's to give back to old customers. After all, I bought a lot of pastries from his family this year!"

Shen Qinglan asked Xing'er to put down the hibiscus cake, Fu'er went over and opened it, but found a letter inside.

"Miss!"

Shen Qinglan opened the letter, and there was only a short sentence in it.

"Sister Sisi, I hope you will be healthy in the coming year."

Yan'er came over and saw the words on it, and said in a low voice, "It can't be that Young Master sent someone to deliver it."

Shen Qinglan also thought it might be Mu Xingze, but the handwriting on it didn't look very similar, maybe it was written by someone from Shuibilou? -
The snow in Luoping City stopped, but it was snowing heavily in Kyoto.

In front of Yaoying Pavilion in Nanyang Hou Mansion, Mu Xingze had just finished spear practice and wanted to rest for a while, when the servant came over and said that Mrs. Hou told him to go to Chu Yuyuan.

"My mother never asks me to come over at this hour. What happened today?" Mu Xingze asked.

"Miss Wei is here, so Mrs. Hou asked you to go over and talk with me." The boy replied.

Mu Xingze was reluctant, but he couldn't disobey his mother's order, so he went directly without even changing his clothes.

In the inner hall of Chu Yuyuan, Mrs. Hou was pulling Wei Junqiao to talk about herself. Recently, she has been very close to this Miss Wei, and she is very satisfied with this future daughter-in-law.

After Mu Xingze entered the room, he greeted his mother first, and said, "Mom, my son still has a lot of homework to do today, so don't bother me."

"You child, what are you talking about? It's rare for Miss Wei to come. It's the end of the new year these few days, so what if you wait and do your homework?" Mrs. Hou said.

Mu Xingze never looked up. He knew that his mother was trying to match him up with Miss Wei, so that's why he asked him to come.

It's just that the mother's words were a bit clumsy, after all, Wei Junqiao ran here every day.

"Mrs. Hou, it's okay. I was reading a book recently, and I happened to have something I didn't understand. I wanted to ask Master Hou for advice." Wei Junqiao said.

"That's just right. You can go to Yaoying Pavilion with Xingze. Xingze often reads and practice there." Madam Hou said with a kind smile, and patted her hand.

"Mother, it's inconvenient for a single man and a widow. My son is not well educated, so he dare not explain Miss Wei's doubts."

Mu Xingze rejected people thousands of miles away, and Mrs. Hou's face was also a little uncomfortable.

"Young Master is too modest, who doesn't know that Young Master has learned a lot?" Wei Junqiao got up and said.

"Miss Wei has won the prize. I don't have that much knowledge, but I can only read a few words. Mother, Miss Wei, I have something to do, so I will take my leave first."

After Mu Xingze finished speaking, he turned and left. Wei Junqiao looked at his back, his face turned blue, and anger rose in his heart instantly.

Her son was so merciless, Madam Hou didn't know how to comfort her, she just said: "Jun Qiao, our Xingze has this temperament, don't mind."

Wei Junqiao raised the corner of his mouth, "I don't know why, but the young master hates me so much. How can our two families get married?"

Madam Hou pulled her to sit down, "It's not that Xingze hates you, it's just...he has always been cold-tempered."

"Ma'am, you don't have to hide it from me. I know that the young master has a childhood sweetheart in Luoping City. It is said that she has an overpowering appearance. She also made a secret promise to the young master. The two may have made a private decision for life."

Mrs. Hou heard this as if she was approaching an enemy, and quickly denied it: "How is this possible? We Xingze have been taught very strictly since we were young. Marriage is nothing more than the order of our parents and the words of a matchmaker. How can we make a private decision for life? ?”

"But in Luoping City, many people have heard about this incident, and Jun Qiao can't believe it. Maybe some people spread such rumors on purpose, and maybe the young master's reputation will be bad." Wei Junqiao said.

Mrs. Hou took her hand, "My family Xingze did have a childhood playmate. It can't be called a childhood sweetheart. It's just that when my family's wife was alive, she had some friendship with her family's wife."

"Ma'am, is that woman really beautiful?" Wei Junqiao asked.

She really wanted to know what kind of person Shen Qinglan was, so after so long, Mu Xingze still couldn't forget her.

"Beauty... is nothing more than a bit of beauty. As for the beauty of the country, it is probably a misrepresentation. Originally, she was promised to the son of the former prefect Meng of Luoping City, but something happened later, but it was her concubine sister. Married to the prefect's mansion."

Madam Hou deliberately mentioned this matter so that Wei Junqiao could let go of her vigilance towards Shen Qinglan.

Wei Junqiao was really interested after hearing this, "The prefect Meng of Luoping City? I seem to have heard of it. Is it the prefect Meng who was dismissed and beheaded a while ago?"

Mrs. Hou nodded, "That's right. In Luoping City at that time, the Meng family was very popular. Later, the Meng family's son got together with her family's concubine sister, and they divorced her."

"So, this young lady is nothing more than that." Wei Junqiao couldn't hold back a sneer.

"Their family is originally a merchant, and it's not a good match for my family's Xingze. Moreover, since my wife's wife passed away, our two families have had little contact. As for those private life-long rumors, they are just rumors of villains." Hou Madame said.

"Well, if that's the case, then I can rest assured. Jun Qiao is still afraid that there will always be another person in the heart of the young master. If His Majesty really bestows a marriage in the future, the two of us will end up as strangers. .”

"How could it be? Miss Wei is as smart as a flower, and if His Majesty really grants her a marriage, it will also be a blessing to my Xingze." Mrs. Hou smiled, her face seemed to be blooming.

If the Mu and Wei families really get married, it will ensure their Mu family's prosperity for a hundred years.

When Mu Xingze returned to Yaoying Pavilion, Zhao Shun was standing in front of the hall, playing with his spear.

"Why is uncle here?"

Zhao Shun put down the spear, "Xingze has grown a lot taller again. I heard that you have practiced spear again recently. I wonder how you are doing?"

"Uncle, do you want to try?"

Mu Xingze was feeling unhappy. He wanted to find someone to fight with, but now that his cousin came, he just happened to try his recent progress.

"Forget it, all I practice is fighting kung fu, I'm afraid I'll hurt you." Zhao Shun declined politely.

"Uncle, don't look down on me, it's not certain who will win."

Zhao Shun laughed, "Okay, let's try then?"
