On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law Chapter 382

  Chapter 382 Mysterious birthday gift

  The sharp-faced maid waiting in Zuimo Pavilion saw Zhou Mu's eyes brighten up, and immediately came up to meet him, and saluted shyly: "Your Majesty, I wish you well."

   "Retire, I don't need to serve here." Zhou Mu didn't look at the maid.

  His aura was too strong, and the sharp-faced maid had a lustful heart but no guts, so she didn't dare to approach him immediately, and stayed away from Zhou Mu.

  Zhou Mu entered Zuimo Pavilion, and took out the dossier given to him by Emperor Cheng De for inspection.

  The dossier is about a food embezzlement case in Suzhou five years ago. So far, no instigators have been found behind the scenes. Emperor Chengde handed the case to him, and he doesn't know whether he wants to investigate him or continue to investigate the case.

  He wanted to calm down and look at the case, but he was worried and looked at the door from time to time.

  Qi Zhiyuan is the one who understands his master's duplicity. He clearly hopes that the prince and concubine will coax him, but he still pretends that nothing happened.

   "Why don't you go down and see if the concubine is done with work, and then let the concubine pick you up to return to Shiyuan?" Qi Zhiyuan broke the silence in the room.

  Zhou Mudan glanced at him: "There are many things!"

  Qi Zhiyuan stepped aside obediently, and stopped talking.

   All right, anyway, the one who wants to be a prince and concubine is the young master, and the young master's whole body is the most stubborn.

   Zhou Mu forced himself to concentrate on reading the file, but it was somewhat effective. When he looked up again, he found that it was already dark, and Xiyan didn't come to look for him, this fact made him look sad.

   "It's getting late, my lord is going back to Qi Shiyuan, right?" Qi Zhiyuan asked after seeing his master read the case.

   "No!" Zhou Mu replied forcefully.

  As soon as he finished speaking, someone entered, it was Qiu Shi.

  She explained the purpose of her visit: "Prince and concubine have prepared dinner, and let the servants come over to invite His Highness to eat in Qishiyuan."

  Qi Zhiyuan looked at Zhou Mu subconsciously, only to see that Mr. Zhou, who had just insisted that he would not return to Qi Shiyuan, became gentle, "Xi Yan asked you to come and invite me?"

   "Exactly. The concubine originally wanted to come here in person, but she is busy at the moment, so she sent a servant to invite Your Highness." Qiu Shi replied truthfully.

  The frost on Zhou Mu's face melted in an instant, he got up and said, "I'm going to Xishiyuan right away."

  Qi Zhiyuan:…

  Young master's heart is really beyond bounds. What he said was farting, what the maid next to the princess said was much more effective than him.

  When Zhou Mu returned to Qishiyuan, the corridor had already turned on the lights, and the whole courtyard was brightly lit, illuminating his way forward.

  For a moment, he forgot the previous grievances, and thought that he also has a home, and there is a woman waiting for him in a warm home. What else is he not satisfied with?

   What's more, that girl is honest, she never thought about giving him a birthday present, it's a very normal thing, what can he complain about?

  After he figured it out, his steps became lighter.

  When he entered the hall, he saw a table of dishes, but there was no sign of Gu Xiyan.

   "Where is Xiyan?" Zhou Mu searched but did not find Gu Xiyan.

   "The concubine is coming soon, Your Highness, please wait a moment." Qiu Shi replied.

   Zhou Mu had no choice but to sit down, and after about a quarter of an hour, Chunhua and Shen's mother brought two bowls of pasta into the room, and Gu Xiyan followed closely behind them.

   "Madam has been busy in the kitchen since returning home?" Zhou Mu had a flash of inspiration, thinking of this possibility.

  So all the dishes on this table are cooked by Xi Yan herself?

"I don't have any other strengths, I only cook delicious food. Thinking of today's special day, it is my heart to make soup for the son to wash his hands. I don't know how the son celebrated his birthday in previous years, but this year I and Young master celebrated his birthday together, so he made two bowls of longevity noodles, and young master tasted it to see if it suits your appetite." Gu Xiyan took a seat beside Zhou Mu. "These two bowls of longevity noodles are not simple. The concubine prepared for half an hour, and did not put them in the pot until His Royal Highness came to Qishiyuan, because the essence of these two bowls of longevity noodles is to eat them immediately after they are put out of the pot to taste the best. "Chunhua added oil and vinegar to the side.

   Zhou Mu looked at Gu Xiyan in a daze, not knowing what to say.

  In previous years, his father accompanied him to celebrate his birthday, but because his birthday was also the anniversary of his mother's death, and he was in a temple, he was always a vegetarian, so he never ate longevity noodles.

  In the past, every birthday he had had was ordinary, nothing different from usual.

  He married his wife this year, and his wife personally made longevity noodles for him. It seems that there is no more simple and meaningful birthday gift than this.

   "What are you doing sitting there, eat it while it's hot, otherwise the noodles will become mushy." Gu Xiyan gave Zhou Mu a push.

   Zhou Mu responded lightly, took a sip seriously and reverently, and said solemnly: "This is the best noodle I've ever eaten, I like it very much."

  The noodles are very firm, yet soft and delicious. They are really the most delicious noodles he has ever eaten.

  Gu Xiyan pursed her lips and smiled, bowed her head and took a bite too.

   Probably the taste was not bad. Seeing Zhou Mu finish eating the longevity noodles quickly, she drank two bowls of soup with great satisfaction, and later ate a lot of dishes, full of praise.

   Zhou Mu never pays much attention to food, but he thinks the longevity noodles and meals tonight are very, very delicious.

  The result of being too flattering is that she is full, so Zhou Mu took Gu Xiyan's hand and walked to the artificial lake to digest.

  The breeze by the lake is cool and cool, which can dissipate the heat from his body.

   For some reason, since he had dinner, he felt hot all over his body.

  After half an hour, Gu Xiyan suddenly said: "I remembered that I left something in Qishiyuan, the young master is waiting for me here, I will be back soon!"

   Without giving Zhou Mu a chance to speak, she hurried away.

   Zhou Mu looked at Gu Xiyan's back, feeling very strange.

  He has finished eating, so he can go back to Qi Shiyuan with her, why did she let him wait here for her?

  In view of what his little wife had said, he didn't dare to leave rashly, fearing that Xiyan wouldn't find him, so he obediently waited by the lake.

   It happened that half an hour later, Xiyan hadn't come back yet, so he couldn't stand still.

   At this moment, Qiu Shi hurried over and said, "Prince and concubine said that she can't move anymore, please return to Shishi Garden, Your Highness."

  Zhou Mu asked seriously, "Is Xi Yan okay?"

  Qiu Shi felt a little guilty, bowed his head and replied: "Prince and concubine are all well, Your Highness, don't worry."

  Zhou Mu felt that Qiu Shi had a problem, but he didn't ask any further questions, so he quickened his pace to go to Qishiyuan.

  When he entered the yard, he found that the Qishi Garden was quiet, there was no servant serving him, and even Hu Die disappeared.

  His heart trembled, and he strode into the hall, but still saw no one.

   Without thinking about it, he headed for the dormitory, and when he saw the lump on the bed, his hanging heart finally hit the ground.

  He thought something happened to her, but she was fine and went to bed to rest.

   "Xiyan, are you okay?" Zhou Mu stepped forward and asked with concern.

  Gu Xiyan hid under the quilt, only showing half of her pink and scarlet face, her apricot eyes were full of water, she looked extraordinarily attractive.
