MTL - I Was Called a Poor Widow, But I Relied on My Supernatural Powers To Fight Back In Ancient Times

Chapter 979 Everyone gets what he needs

 Mu Zhuolan found that He Hui's eyes when looking at Bai Hanlin were particularly soft, and she was very surprised. In her mind, that man was an arrogant person.

I didn’t expect that he would be so kind and cheerful when facing the official’s new favorite Hanlin bachelor. It’s really surprising.

When this idea came to his mind, Mu Zhuolan himself was stunned. He looked up at the corner of the corridor again, and by this time the two people were gone.

When she was confused, she heard someone calling her from behind,

“Miss Mu, why are you standing here alone? Is there something wrong?”

Mother has lamented more than once. If they had known that the aunt's child was so promising, they would have taken action in advance. How could they let the second uncle get there first?

While talking, Duan Guixiang walked out of the courtyard with the girl.

Although the eldest brother and the second brother of the Duan family are direct relatives, since the second uncle and the others returned to their ancestral home, their relationship has not been as warm as before. Unexpectedly, cousin Xie Yu was quite lucky, so no wonder the second uncle married her cousin off.

Duan Guixiang said, she couldn't help but laugh. Today's trip was really not in vain. She could actually talk to the princess and Mu Zhuolan. She didn't believe it because they were familiar with each other. With Duan Guixiang's methods, Can’t fit in?

 Hearing Duan Guixiang's compliment, He Hui glanced at her, which made Mu Zhuolan curl up her lips, guessing that someone was a drunkard who didn't care about drinking.

Mu Zhuolan looked back at the bustling flower hall. Before she could speak, she saw Princess Hehui coming back with her girl.

I didn’t expect to see Miss Mu and Princess Hehui at the banquet today. It was an unexpected surprise.

Seeing the two people standing under the moon cave door talking, they didn’t care.

 “Have you eaten yet?”

He Hui glanced at Duan Guixiang's suggestion and Mu Zhuolan agreed without even speaking.

Mu Zhuolan chuckled lightly and looked at her new purple coat, matched with her soft eyebrows, which made her look even more dignified, and her movements were all models of aristocratic families.

Her mother told her more than once that they are businessmen and have to have a keen sense of smell. As long as they do things that are good for themselves, it doesn’t matter if they have a lower profile. The most important thing is to achieve their goals.

Although Dongzhu and Nanzhu are precious, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can still purchase a batch of good goods. However, golden pearls are extremely rare and are considered as offerings. Sometimes it is difficult for aristocratic families like them to obtain them.

Hearing Mu Zhuolan's tone, Duan Guixiang was not angry. He had known for a long time that these noble ladies had high eyesight, and when interacting with them, they only took what they needed.

Now Cousin Xie has also been summoned to Beijing and became the Young Minister of Honglu Temple. He has also made good friends with the Bai family, and his future future is limitless.

If you want to get it justifiably, unless the head of the family has made meritorious service and received a reward from the official.

 “I’m with you.”

 Duan Guixiang chuckled and looked at the shade of flowers and plants in the yard. However, there was no wind at noon, and she would be sweating after a while.

 Seeing Duan Guixiang, Mu Zhuolan looked calm. When he saw the light golden pearl flower on her bun, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Hearing Mu Zhuolan’s joke, Princess Hehui was noncommittal, but Duan Guixiang next to her echoed,

"Perhaps this is fate. If people look at each other, it has nothing to do with their status. The princess is a noblewoman from Kyoto, with both talent and beauty, and unparalleled wisdom. However, she has fallen in love with Yaya. Isn't it just fate?"

Even so, golden pearls on the market are still hard to find. Unexpectedly, the Duan family is willing to keep them.

She had already inquired about it. Although the two people came in a carriage, they asked the coachman to go back when they arrived at the gate of the house.

"Then Princess Duan and I will go to the trouble of Miss Duan." Since she came over so eagerly, there was no point in being polite. It saved the servant a trip.

 What a pity, there is no regret medicine in the world. Now the whole family is fawning over the cousin and his wife, hoping that they will take more care of the big house.

 Two hundred five. Two hundred and thirty-four. One hundred and forty-six. Seventy-five

But the Duan family is different. They are imperial merchants and have purchasing privileges. In addition to handing over the specified quantity, they are allowed to keep the excess and the items of relatively poor quality for themselves.

Even her cousin’s status has risen with the tide. Every time they met in the past, when did she not always smile to please him?

"Not to mention that the princess likes her, even I was very happy after seeing it. It's a pity that the little girl only likes He Hui and is not willing to talk to me."

“There are many people in the house, so it’s indeed hot and stuffy. Aunt Bai was afraid that everyone would get too hot, so she specially placed two ice basins.”

 Now it’s the other way around.

“I’ll go tell Bai Shuren and take the first step.”

"You're welcome, you're welcome, it's all as it should be. I have no other plans except going to the banquet today."

"Miss Duan is right. The Bai family belongs to a scholarly family. Bai Hanlin has become a favored official by his own efforts. He must be outstanding. Little Miss Bai is the eldest granddaughter of the family and is immersed in the scholarly family. Jia must also be a smart girl."

 “It’s nothing, it’s stuffy in the house, I’ll come out for some air.”

Today she came to the Bai family with her mother to congratulate her, and she also got into the good graces of her cousin. There was no way, even though they were imperial merchants, their status was still not high in the eyes of these serious officials.

 “Will Miss Mu return to the banquet?”

She came here with this person to join in the fun. She had seen everything she needed to see and given gifts, so there was no point in staying around.

Although the Duan family is rich, they hold many banquets every year and send invitations to these noble ladies, but whether they come or not depends on their mood.

He Hui didn’t object after listening to Mu Zhuolan’s tone. He looked at Duan Guixiang and nodded.

  “It’s time to work.”

 Seeing the Bai family's noodles today, she would be lying if she said she wasn't sour. The Bai family, a scholar who started from a humble family, was valued by the officials just because he entered the court as an official. Half of the officials from Kyoto came to the full moon banquet.

 “The weather is hot and I have no appetite.”

Even though we are all in Kyoto, we only see each other once or twice a year, mostly at the winter flower banquet.

Duan Guixiang didn't hide her joy at all. She just said that once she gets used to it, she will get familiar with it later. As long as she gets involved and slowly integrates into their circle, the more experience she has, the more opportunities she will have. There is no telling how lucky she will be. My cousin is even better.

"It seems that the princess really likes the little girl from the Bai family. When she came to the Bai family, even her eyebrows softened a lot."

He Hui looked at the crooked expression on her eyebrows and explained softly, "She is a little girl after all, why do you have to worry about her."

"Hey, is this still protected?" Listening to these unexplained words and her non-stop laughter, I almost frowned.

Father said that this is the influence of serious officials, unlike them, who are the court's moneybags.

Princess Hehui came to say goodbye. Baiyunxi was polite, thanked her again and again for coming, and personally walked her to the gate. She watched several people get on the carriage and leave before turning back.
