    ¡°Third brother?¡± Hua Xi squinted her eyes to see clearly who was coming, and couldn¡¯t help but shout.

    Mu Xiuyuan hurriedly bowed and apologized, saying, "I offended my sister, so don't be offended."

    Hongliu has come up from behind.

    By the firelight in the lantern, Huaxi saw that Mu Xiuyuan's clothes were a little messy, and his hair was speckled with osmanthus flowers.

    Not even a maid is following. Are you climbing a tree or a wall

    Thinking of his appearance just now, Huaxi's expression suddenly became a little strange.

    Mu Xiuyuan noticed something strange in Huaxi and frowned. He couldn't help but look down at himself. He suddenly understood and twitched his lips in embarrassment, "There are so many people and noisy people, so I came out to hide and enjoy the flowers. Why did my sister come here?"  "

    "I ate too much in the evening and accumulated some food, so I went out for a walk. I am tired from walking now and am about to go back to Qixia Garden. I don't want to disturb the third brother's enjoyment."

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Blessedly, I am ready to leave.

    ¡°Sister, come this way, I¡¯ll take you back on the way.¡± Mu Xiuyuan stopped Hua Xi and pointed in the opposite direction.

    Huaxi glanced at him twice, then looked at the road ahead.  Further along the path and past the osmanthus forest is the three-bedroom Hengwuju, and further west past the back garden is the Qixia Garden.  Going back, you can also go back to Qixia Garden by taking a detour through Liulin Path and Waterside Pavilion, but the latter is farther.

    Hua Xi looked puzzled, but finally nodded.

    Mu Xiuyuan breathed a long sigh of relief, patted his hair carelessly, straightened his clothes, and extended his hand in a gesture of invitation, "Sister, let's go first."

    Occasionally, a cloud will drift across the sky, the moon will appear and disappear, and the stones on the quiet path will also glow with a flickering silver halo.

    In the coldness, a little bean lamp exudes soft light.

    Mu Xiuyuan followed the figure with a dim yellow halo in front of him, so close but yet so far away.  The vague orange fragrance that once attracted him seemed to escape with the soft light spots, like a cup of fragrant tea held in the hand on a desolate autumn night, and the wisps of moisture turned into a little warmth.  of warmth.

    This feels a little strange.  A moment of confusion slowed down his pace.

    "Third Master?" Hongliu turned sideways and walked in front with a lantern. When he saw Mu Xiuyuan stopped in place, he called out softly.

    Hua Xi looked back without knowing why.

    Mu Xiuyuan met her gaze, turned away awkwardly, and stammered, "It's okay, there's a bit of a bump on the road. But it's okay, I'm thick-skinned, so keep walking!" His face was already red.  Half of it, luckily the darkness of the night prevented anyone from noticing it.

    Hua Xi's eyes also fell on his feet, revealing a piece of black soft-soled cloth shoes that are commonly worn at home. These are light and casual shoes that are mostly used indoors. After walking on this gravel road for a long time,  Not comfortable.  Fortunately, he also said that he has "rough skin and thick flesh."

    Why bother taking a detour? Obviously there is a bluestone road at the other end, unlike the flower path here which is mostly paved with cobblestones.  Hua Xi became more and more confused, what on earth did Mu Xiuyuan want to hide?

    ¡°The journey is not far, there is no need to send him off,¡± he blurts out. Then he thinks about how it¡¯s dark and he has no light. Huaxi swallows his words again and turns around to signal Hongliu to continue walking.

    After returning to Qixia Garden in silence, Huaxi ordered Hongliu to send Mu Xiuyuan back.

    Mu Xiuyuan wanted to decline politely, but Huaxi said: "It's a dark night. It's hard for Third Brother to send me back with his kindness. It's not good for me to bump into each other when I go back. Huaxi felt even more sorry, so let Hongliu give Third Brother a ride."  .¡±

    Mu Xiu saw the situation and couldn't push it any further, so he said goodbye to Huaxi and asked Hongliu to take him back to his yard.

    On the morning of the 16th, the old lady asked the eldest lady Yin and the eldest grandmother Zhao to go to the Xiao family to congratulate the family on behalf of the Mu family.

    Huaxi got up and went to the incense room to make incense for Mu Xiuyuan.

    Lilac came back from outside carrying a basket of mignonette flowers.

    "Girl, I just went to pick flowers with my mother in charge, and I heard them talking about something happening in the osmanthus forest last night."

    "What happened?" Huaxi was stunned, and then pounded the medicine pestle again and again, her heart was in doubt, thinking of Mu Xiuyuan's embarrassed appearance.

    "I secretly heard it. They said that Jinxiu met the third master in the sweet-scented osmanthus forest last night, and was later caught by Aunt Liu, saying that she seduced the third master. The third lady imprisoned Jinxiu all night, and wanted to suppress the matter and resolve it behind her back.  , but somehow Aunt Liu got her to the old lady. Now, everyone in the yard knows about it." Ding Xiang lowered her voice, but Huaxi could hear a bit of gloating in her words.

    Dingxiang almost suffered a loss at the hands of Wu Ming several times, and she still resented it, wishing that Jinxiu would be unlucky.

      But Hua Xi was thinking that Mu Xiuyuan stopped him last night because he was afraid that he would get into trouble. What about himself?  Will you be affected by this matter?  Has anyone else seen them in the Laurel Grove?

    "Has it been dealt with already?" Hua Xi asked.

    Ding Xiang shook his head, "Not yet."

    Huaxi frowned slightly and handed the stone mortar and pestle to Dingxiang to grind the medicine. He returned to the main room and called Hongliu to tell Dingxiang what he had heard.

    After all, Hongliu had stayed in the mansion for many years, so he knew the clues as soon as he heard it, and replied: "I will go to Mother Wang to ask."

    "Don't go to Mrs. Wang, ask the girl in the old lady's courtyard or the third room."

    Hongliu went out in response and came back in about half an hour.

    Thinking she was running a little hastily, Hongliu's forehead was covered with fine sweat. Huaxi handed her a handkerchief. Hongliu took it and wiped it casually. She was slightly out of breath and said: "The third lady went to the banquet, Jinxiu stayed in the house.  Later, when the ladies wanted to draw cards, the third lady didn't bring enough money, so she asked Qiao'er to go back and get it. Aunt Liu said she was not feeling well and left early, so she followed Qiao'er back all the way. When passing by the osmanthus grove, she saw the third master and Jinxiu hugging each other At that time  Only Qiao'er and Aunt Liu saw it and alerted the woman who was watching the night. I found out clearly that no one else saw this. I thinkit's okay. "

    Hua Xi¡¯s heart dropped and she asked again: ¡°How to deal with it?¡±

    Hongliu looked a little weird and shook her head, "I don't know. Na Jinxiu kept complaining in the hall, saying that the third master promised her to help her father take back the steward and let her brother go back to the Mu family as an errand, so she she also said, also said  ¡­¡±

    Hongliu hesitated for a moment, and then a few words came out of her mouth, "Jinxiu said she is pregnant"

    Hua Xi was also shocked. This happened at the wrong time.  Mu Jiren has an official position, and Ding You is not allowed to have children during his period.  Originally, part of the reason for the death of the old marquis was Mu Jiren's anger. Within three months, Mu Jizhong had just ascended the throne, so why did such a scandal happen again at home?  There is definitely no chance that Jinxiu¡¯s child will be born.

    Hua Xi raised her eyes and saw Hongliu standing there in a daze, and sighed softly, "Cleverness is mistaken for cleverness maybe she is still alive if she doesn't tell her. Now I really don't know if her life can be saved."

    Hong Liu looked at Hua Xi with a stern look on her face, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw her calmly looking out the window without looking at him.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??

    "It's a good thing to have ambition, but if you don't follow the right path, you will end up harming yourself. It should be noted that in this world, most of the people with high ambitions have lives as thin as paper"
