I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

[2500 words added to the end of this chapter, my dears, please remember to read it again! ]

Fu Yushu and Mu Shaoheng stayed in the flower room for a long time. When she returned to the upper room and to Tao Ying, she brought back two large bamboo baskets of peonies!

Tao Ying: ...

King Zhenbian was too generous.

Like Zhaofen, Weizi, Yaohuang and Doulv peony, each of these four famous varieties is worth a lot of money, let alone two large bamboo baskets? !

"Your Highness, my Shu'er is so ignorant that she has caused you to spend so much money." Tao Ying quickly stood up from the armchair, saying with some embarrassment.

Unexpectedly, Mu Shaoheng looked at Fu Yushu and smiled, "Sister Fu is very sensible. She has been declining the offer just like my aunt. It was I who insisted on sending her."

Sister Fu?

aunt?

When Tao Ying heard this name, she was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, the scene emerged in my mind... before, on the stone path in front of the pavilion, the rest of the people dispersed, and the scene of King Zhenbian walking alone with Shu'er appeared.

Thinking back to what Gao Ni said on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he said that "the King of Zhenbian fell in love with a girl who was born in the year of the dragon", and her Shu'er was also born in the year of the dragon!

So, the girl that King Zhenbian liked was actually her Shuer?

After this idea came into being, Tao Ying kept quietly paying attention to the interaction between Zhenbian Wang and Shu'er at the subsequent lunch.

I noticed that King Zhenbian would look at Shu'er from time to time, and every time he glanced at her, Shu'er would subconsciously lower her head slightly, looking shy.

In order to further confirm what she was thinking, after the New Year's greetings were over and she returned to the Marquis of Jingyang's residence, Tao Ying deliberately called her eldest daughter over and asked tentatively with a smile:

"Shu'er, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, mother has made an appointment with the Princess of Nanjun to go to the theater to watch a play. At that time, the Princess of Nanjun will bring her son with her."

Fu Yushu: ...

Is mother going to take her to see him again?

After a pause, Fu Yushu blushed slightly and stammered to confess her feelings to Tao Ying: "Mother, my daughter... already has... someone she likes."

Tao Ying continued to laugh and said, "Oh? Whose son is this?"

Fu Yushu lowered her head shyly, fiddling with her skirt with her hands. After a long while, she said shyly, "On the fifth day of the New Year, mother will know."

After saying this, Fu Yushu ran away in shame.

Seeing her daughter like this, what else could Tao Ying be uncertain about? Her Shu'er and the King of Zhenbian were in love with each other!

And on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, just as Fu Yushuo had said... Mu Shaoheng came with a matchmaker to propose marriage.

This matchmaker is an old acquaintance - the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that Gao Ni invited to propose marriage to Fu Yuzheng - the old princess of Nanjun and the princess of Nanjun!

"Madam Hou, your daughter is so beautiful and blessed. First she attracted Gao Ni, and now she has attracted his good brother, the Border King. Congratulations."

Afterwards, the old Princess of Nanjun and the Princess of Nanjun and her mother-in-law praised Mu Shaoheng a lot.

In the end, naturally as the parties wished, Tao Ying happily nodded and agreed to the marriage.

In this way, Mu Shaoheng became Fu Yushu's fiancé.

Wooden Palace.

On the morning of the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Mu Zitang felt completely uneasy after learning that Mu Shaoheng had brought a matchmaker and went to Jingyang Marquis's Mansion in person to propose marriage.

She lay listlessly on the west window like a withered flower, the mahogany window open, letting the cold north wind blow on her warm body.

"Princess, please close the window quickly. Why are you torturing yourself like this?"

The head maid Bi Wu really couldn't understand her own princess. Was it necessary for her to look so desperate when the prince came to propose a marriage?

Could it be that she is worried that the future wife will treat her badly?

As Bi Wu was thinking this, a little maid walked in from outside the door and reported: "Princess, Xu Feihe wants to see you."

Upon hearing Xu Feihe's name, Mu Zitang immediately became alert, walked out of her boudoir quickly, and headed for the flower hall in the front yard to receive guests.

"Have you bought the medicine?" Mu Zitang asked impatiently as soon as he entered the door.

Xu Feihe smiled and took out a packet of medicine powder from his sleeve, handed it over and said, "Of course."

After that, Xu Feihe asked for credit again: "Princess, this is a top-notch aphrodisiac. If you take one packet and don't make love three or four times at night, you won't be able to detoxify."

Mu Zitang was an unmarried girl and had no idea what "not making love three or four times at night" meant.

But she knew that with this packet of powder, Fu Yushu would have sex with other men, which made her uncontrollably excited.

So what if Fu Yushu is engaged to my brother?

By then, my body will no longer be pure, so I will cancel the engagement!

Seeing that Mu Zitang was happy, Xu Feihe used sweet words to extort two thousand taels of silver from him, on the grounds that this packet of medicine was as effective as two packets of it!

Mu Zitang was happy and didn't care about the small amount of money at all, so he gave it happily.

When coming out of the flower hall, Mu Zitang had a smile on his face. At this moment, he happened to meet Mu Shaoheng who came back happily to propose marriage.

Mu Zitang quickly stuffed the medicine bag into his sleeve and ran over with a look of joy on his face, just like usual... He wanted to hold Mu Shaoheng's arm intimately and call him sweetly: "Brother Shaoheng."

Unexpectedly, Mu Shaoheng turned sideways, leaving her with nothing to hold.

His originally joyful brows turned into a frown the moment he saw his sister.

"Tangtang, come with me to the main hall. Brother wants to talk to you."

After saying this, Mu Shaoheng strode towards the upper room without looking back.

Mu Zitang froze for a moment. When she was young and in the study room, Brother Shao Heng often talked to her like this with a cold face and scolded her mercilessly every time.

After many years, she met him again.

Not knowing what he had done to make Brother Shao Heng angry, Mu Zitang followed him to the main hall with a little trepidation.

But Mu Shaoheng sat down on the main seat in the main hall and shouted coldly, "Kneel down!"

At this time, several maids came out from the back hall with feather dusters, lifting the pearl curtain.

Seeing this, Mu Zitang became even more panicked. He knelt on the ground obediently and asked in a stammering voice, "Brother Shao Heng, did I, did I do something wrong?"

Mu Shaoheng said with displeasure: "On the third day of the New Year, the mansion hosted a banquet for guests, but you, as the young master of the Mu Mansion, didn't know how to entertain guests at all. You are totally uneducated!"

What is said is that after the banquet, when Mu Zitang was seeing Fu Yushuo and his family off, he didn't even show up.

Mu Zitang lowered his head slightly when he heard this.

She saw her brother kissing Fu Yushu that day and was so sad that she ran around to buy medicine. How could she have the mood to see Fu Yushu off?

Of course, this couldn't be revealed to Mu Shaoheng, so Mu Zitang just lowered his head and said nothing.

"Still not convinced?" Mu Shaoheng shouted coldly, "Use the family rules, twenty blows to the calf!"

Twenty times?

Mu Zitang was shocked. In the past, when she couldn't recite the book, Brother Shao Heng would only punish her ten times at most!

Now, for Fu Yusu, is he so cruel?

Soon, two maids came forward. One of them pulled Mu Zitang up from the ground, lifted her skirt to expose her calves, and the other one picked up a feather duster and started hitting her calves hard.

In a few seconds, Mu Zitang started crying in pain.

Mu Shaoheng didn't feel bad, he just watched his sister get hit with twenty strokes of the family law. Then he continued, "Kneel down."

Not finished yet?

Mu Zitang endured the pain and continued to kneel down and listen to the lecture with tears on her face.

"Tangtang, my brother is getting engaged to Miss Fu today. From now on, she will be your wife. If you still dare to be disrespectful to her in the future, don't blame me for being rude to you."

Mu Shaoheng looked into his sister's eyes and warned her solemnly word by word.

Under the pressure of her brother, Mu Zitang dared not to be stubborn and choked up, "Brother Shao Heng, I understand. Next time... I won't dare to do it again."

Mu Shaoheng nodded: "Okay, go down and write an apology letter to your wife Wang and send it to her immediately. If you can't finish it, you won't have dinner today."

After saying that, Mu Shaoheng stood up and left, his back looking cold.

He never looked back at Mu Zitang who had made the mistake.

Mu Zitang knelt on the ground, clenching her teeth tightly. She felt deeply that her position in brother Shao Heng's heart... was far inferior to Fu Yusu!

Her brother Shao Heng was taken away by Fu Yushu!

Thinking of this, she was already crying, and her tears fell even more...

"Princess, why are you doing this?" The head maid Biwu really felt that her princess was weird. How could a younger sister dislike her future sister-in-law?

What's more, the future sister-in-law is the apple of my brother's eye.

If the princess does not change her attitude, won't it be easy for her to control her illegitimate sister-in-law once the princess marries her?

That was when the hard times really began.

~

On the day of engagement, Fu Yushu shyly hid in her boudoir and did not go out.

Fu Yuzheng just wanted to see her sister's shy look, so after waking up from a nap at noon, she went straight to her sister's yard to play with her.

But I saw my sister sitting quietly on the warm couch by the west window, embroidering a handkerchief with her head down.

Fu Yuzheng came to sit beside her sister, took a glance, and saw that her sister was embroidering the word "Shu" on the corner of the handkerchief, so she joked:

"Sister, are you... embroidering a token of love for your brother-in-law?"

Hearing this, Fu Yushu's cheeks flushed and she said angrily, "Nonsense, I embroidered it for myself."

"Sister, you should not use it for yourself. Why not embroider an extra word 'heng' and give it to your brother-in-law as a gift?"

Fu Yuzheng continued to joke, "My brother-in-law gave me two bamboo baskets of peonies. I should give you something in return. It's a courtesy to return gifts."

Fu Yushu: ...

Just as she was blushing at what her sister said, the concierge brought her a letter: "Miss, this is from the King of Zhenbian."

"Love letter?" As soon as the concierge left, Fu Yuzheng winked at her sister mischievously.

Fu Yushu thought... maybe so.

I felt embarrassed to open the letter in front of my sister, so I just put it gently on the table.

Fu Yuzheng was very tactful. Seeing that her presence delayed her sister from reading the letter, she made up an excuse and left.

Fu Yushu then shyly picked up the "love letter" and opened it, only to see...

——A design drawing of a mansion.

——A handwritten letter from Mu Shaoheng.

——Plus an apology letter from Mu Zitang.

"apology letter?"

Fu Yushu was quite surprised by the letter. He opened it first and saw that it was filled with two pages of words full of Mu Zitang's words of remorse.

The words used are very sincere and heartfelt.

Fu Yushu smiled gently: "Little Princess, you are really too polite."

Although the little princess is older than her, it can be seen that she still has the mentality of a child and has not grown up.

Therefore, Fu Yushu, who has always been tolerant and generous, did not care about the little princess at all.

He also wrote a reply letter, comforting the little princess with earnest words, saying that he had never minded those little things and asked her not to take them to heart.

Afterwards, Fu Yushu opened Mu Shaoheng's letter again, which contained six pages of writing. He treated her as a princess and discussed the construction of the mansion with her again.

It turned out that when Mu Shaoheng brought her the design drawings of the mansion two days ago, although Fu Yushu felt sweet in her heart, she was very well-behaved and declined the offer in a few words.

Unexpectedly, after the engagement, Mu Shaoheng asked for her opinion again and sent her the design drawings of the mansion.

As her fingers touched the design drawings of the mansion, Fu Yushu couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth and smiled sweetly.

This time, she didn't hesitate. She picked up the mansion design drawing and went straight to the study. She picked up her pen and added seven or eight scenes that she liked to the design drawing...

After failing to think of anything else, Fu Yushuo put down her pen, returned to her boudoir, picked up the unfinished handkerchief and continued embroidering.

However, at this moment, she recalled her sister's words in her mind, and decisively embroidered a word "Heng" on the corner of the handkerchief.

"Shu" and "Heng" are listed together.

As a gift, it was sent back to the Mu Mansion along with a reply letter to Mu Zitang.

Two days later, Fu Yusu received another reply from Mu Shaoheng, inviting her to go out to the night market on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

~

Time flies and it is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Fu Yuzheng and her sister were dressed very elegantly. When the two sisters came to the gate side by side, Gao Ni and Mu Shaoheng were already waiting there, and Fu Linghao was entertaining them warmly.

"Brother Ni." Fu Yuzheng took a few quick steps and rushed towards Gao Ni.

Gao Ni smiled and caught her: "Give me a hug. Let me see if you have gained weight in the past four or five days."

After saying that, he rubbed her waist back and forth twice with his big hands as if measuring.

Fu Yuzheng: ...

Uh, finding such a novel excuse to take advantage of others is really...very expensive!

But it was just a touch on the waist, which was not excessive, so Fu Yuzheng just let him do it and didn't roll her eyes at him.

At this moment, a clear voice suddenly sounded from the carriage behind him: "Happy New Year, Sister Shu."

Fu Yuzheng was startled, and when she turned her head, she saw a petite figure jumping out of the Mu Mansion's carriage. It was the young princess Mu Zitang. She walked towards her sister with a well-behaved look on her face, and took the initiative to intimately hold her sister's arm.

This is... After my sister and Mu Shaoheng got engaged, Mu Zitang started to please her future sister-in-law?

Seeing this, Fu Yushu immediately acted like an older sister and smiled dotingly at Mu Zitang.

Seeing that his sister had indeed made progress, Mu Shaoheng nodded with satisfaction.
