Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal

After Chu Xuanchi asked about Xiao Yan's situation, he went to the main courtyard in the backyard to meet Mo Zhaohua.

It was now evening, and there would be a welcoming party for Mu Xueyan in the evening, so naturally she, the mistress, had to attend.

At this time, Mo Zhaohua was still busy in the embroidery room. She was rushing to make clothes for Chu Xuanchi. She went out only after she learned that he was coming.

She lifted her skirt and stepped into the main hall, smiling, "It's still early for dinner, why did my husband come to the backyard at this time?"

Chu Xuanchi spoke gently, "Zhao Zhao, there are guests in the mansion. She didn't inform you in advance, and I didn't mention her to you."

Mo Zhaohua sat down and said, "This is the first time a guest has come to visit since I married into the family. He must be an honored guest. Please introduce him to me, my husband."

Chu Xuanchi told her in detail, "I was in danger in southern Xinjiang in the past, and was rescued by a woman. The woman had a daughter named Mu Xueyan..."

The woman's husband died early, and the mother and daughter depended on each other. Later, unfortunately, she fell seriously ill and there was no cure, so she entrusted her daughter to Chu Xuanchi.

Chu Xuanchi recognized Mu Xueyan as his sister because she saved his life. After her death, he raised her in his house and treated her like both a father and a brother.

Mo Zhaohua understood, "She is the daughter of your benefactor. Since she entrusted the girl to you, you must take good care of her to repay her kindness."

Chu Xuanchi said: "Xue'er has a savage temper, speaks her mind, and is not polite. Please bear with her in the future."

"No problem. Husband and wife are one. Your husband's benefactor is my benefactor. I will treat Miss Mu well and will not hold grudges."

Mo Zhaohua herself is a person who repays favors. She knows how heavy the favor is, so how could she stop Chu Xuanchi from repaying the favor? She also doesn't like ungrateful people.

"Zhao Zhao is kindhearted and loyal, but you can't let yourself down. If Xue'er is wrong, you must not keep silent about it."

Chu Xuanchi knew Mu Xueyan's personality well, and was afraid that Mo Zhaohua would sacrifice himself for the sake of his kindness. How could he bear that?

"Don't worry, my husband. I am not someone who will allow others to bully me. I will act according to the situation and will not let myself suffer a big loss."

Mo Zhaohua's principle in life is very simple: to repay hatred with hatred and to repay kindness with kindness. If anyone dares to plot against her or bully her, she will repay him double.

"That's great. Xue'er has already been spoiled by me. If you continue to spoil her, she will be even more ignorant and might cause trouble."

Chu Xuanchi knew that Mu Xueyan had no relatives, so he returned to Shengjing to settle down, but he did not bring her with him because he had this worry.

If Huaying had given him the news earlier, he would definitely have stopped Mu Xueyan from coming. Now that everyone is here, it would be inappropriate to send them back.

Especially since they had encountered danger on the way, it was not safe enough to send them back to southern Xinjiang. He became more and more worried and decided to keep them by her side.

Mo Zhaohua smiled sweetly, "Hearing what my husband said, it seems that he wants me to be the bad guy and discipline Miss Mu for him."

Chu Xuanchi hurriedly explained, "Zhao Zhao misunderstood. I just wanted Xue'er to understand some rules. How could I let Zhao Zhao really be a bad person and make her dislike me?"

Seeing his big reaction, Mo Zhaohua couldn't bear to tease him anymore, "I was just teasing you, why do you take it so seriously?"

"My fault. I didn't know Zhao Zhao had such a playful side." Chu Xuanchi talked about Xiao Yan again, "There is another guest..."

Mo Zhaohua said solemnly, "The benefactor's benefactor is naturally our benefactor as well. We should all treat him well."

Chu Xuanchi was not at ease with Xiao Yan. "It will be a bit inconvenient to have an extra man in the mansion in the future. I will have to bear the grievances."

Mo Zhaohua didn't care. "It's okay. The mansion is so big that I may not be able to see her often. Besides, I'm usually in the backyard."

***

Dinner.

Chu Xuanchi arranged a welcoming banquet.

Out of courtesy, Xiao Yan attended the event despite his illness.

Mu Xueyan stared at Mo Zhaohua, "Are you the princess consort of Prince Yu?"

Mo Zhaohua responded gently, "Hello, Miss Mu, I am the wife of King Yu."

She was also curious about Mu Xueyan, but she would not stare at her directly, as that would be very impolite.

Just from this one action, she knew that Mu Xueyan really didn't know the rules. Is this the casualness of southern Xinjiang?

Chu Xuanchi scolded unhappily, "Xue'er, don't be so rude, Zhao Zhao is your sister-in-law."

Mu Xueyan looked provocative, "Sister-in-law, you are so beautiful. No wonder Brother Prince Yu is willing to marry you as his concubine."

Chu Xuanchi's face darkened. "Why, in Xue'er's eyes, am I such a lustful person?"

"Then, brother Prince Yu, don't you like my sister-in-law's beauty? There are few women with such fair skin and beautiful looks in our southern border."

Mu Xueyan kept commenting on Mo Zhaohua's appearance, which made Chu Xuanchi feel more and more uncomfortable and he wanted to stop the topic.

"Ahem... don't be so rude. Say something else in front of the guests, but don't make Young Master Xiao laugh at you."

Xiao Yan laughed calmly, his voice gentle and elegant, "Miss Mu is just innocent and simple-minded, how can this be a joke?"

Chu Xuanchi took the opportunity to change the subject, "Mr. Xiao was seriously injured while trying to save my adopted sister. There is a doctor in the mansion who can be called at any time if needed."

Xiao Yan put down his chopsticks and bowed, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Chu Xuanchi responded politely, "Mr. Xiao, you don't have to be so polite."

"Xue'er heard on the way that the daughter of the Minister of Revenue is proficient in everything, such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Can you play a song to liven up the atmosphere?"

Chu Xuanchi and Xiao Yan had just finished talking when Mu Xueyan stared at Mo Zhaohua and spoke again, making the same excessive request.

Chu Xuanchi's eyes dimmed slightly, and his voice suddenly turned cold, "Xue Yan!"

Mo Zhaohua was also a little unhappy in his heart, "Sorry, I'm sorry, I can't do that."

"Why?" Mu Xueyan said with sarcasm, "Aren't you ladies from high-class families learning these just to show off?"

Mo Zhaohua now not only felt provoked, but also felt strong hostility. It seemed that this Miss Mu was intentionally targeting her.

Except for some special occasions, the people who played the piano at banquets were all musicians and actors. Mu Xueyan was clearly belittling her status.

"It seems that Miss Mu has a big misunderstanding about music, chess, calligraphy and painting. We learn these not to please others, but to please ourselves."

For Chu Xuanchi's sake, Mo Zhaohua had to endure it, but since there were guests present, she couldn't lose face.

Mu Xueyan curled her lips, looking very interested, "Oh? How can I please myself? Xue'er would like to hear the details."

"Music can cultivate one's temperament and make one happy by listening to it. Hand talk can not only cultivate one's character, but also increase one's wisdom."

Mo Zhaohua deliberately tricked Mu Xueyan, "As for calligraphy and painting, Miss Mu is very smart, I don't need to elaborate on it."

In Mu Xueyan's view, calligraphy and painting are nothing more than writing and painting, which are useless things. Who knows what benefits there are in them.

But since Mo Zhaohua had said this, she couldn't deny it, otherwise she would appear ignorant and be laughed at by Xiao Yan.
