In troubled times, the daughter-in-law returns

Chapter 112 Accompanying
After recovering from a serious illness, Mu Xue was indeed very tired, not to mention talking so much with Sikong Ye, so she nodded obediently.

Sikong Ye put her away, covered her with a quilt, and said in a gentle voice, "I know you don't like to be disturbed, so the maids are guarding outside, if you need anything, just order."

After a pause, she added: "An Ran won't leave for the time being, she will stay here with you, you don't have to treat her like an outsider."

That is to say, the maids and mother-in-law outside can do whatever they want An Ran to do.

Mu Xue gently agreed, "Go and do your work."

Sikong Ye stopped in front of the bed for a while, and waited until Mu Xue's breathing became stable before turning around and walking out.

An Ran woke up after a good night's sleep, took a shower, changed her clothes, and looked much more energetic.

She put on a smile and came to accompany Mu Xue.

If Mu Xue fell asleep, she would quietly embroider next to her; if Mu Xue woke up, she would happily talk with Mu Xue.

It was the happiest and most relaxed time of her life since she was five years old.

In the evening, if Sikong Ye came back, no one would be left in the room, and An Ran would avoid him obediently.But if Sikong Ye had said in advance that he would not come back, she would have the cheek to share the bed with Mu Xue. Of course, all the bedding and pillows would have to be replaced, and she would not dare and would not touch anything that the young city lord had used.

She would hold Mu Xue's arm and chatter about her vision for the future, and would whisper to Mu Xue: "Sister Qingqing, I think the Young City Lord treats you very well!"

Mu Xue asked quietly: "How can you see that?"

An Ran counted with her fingers: "Before, I heard that Miss Lan was the most honorable woman in the city lord's mansion other than the city lord's wife, but even she couldn't set foot in the backyard of the study.

"In addition, the Young City Lord will come to see you as soon as he finishes his work every day, and will accompany you to eat and sleep with you whenever he is free... er, to rest. But he rarely sees Miss Lan.

"I also heard that although the young city lord is very concerned about Miss Lan, it seems to be a brother and sister relationship and has no distracting thoughts. But it is different for you.

"Sister Qingqing, you have been suffering for more than ten years. It is not easy to meet someone who is sincerely good to you. Do you want to consider marrying him in the future?"

Mu Xue sneered softly, "An Ran, you are too naive, who is he, who am I? Talking about marriage? What a joke!"

"Sister Qingqing!" An Ran was a little displeased, "Let's not talk about your background, just based on your current ability, it is more than enough to be a young city lord!
"Let's not talk about that for now, let's think about it first. You said that among the famous ladies in Yecheng, which one is worthy of being the young city lord, take it out and compare it with you. If it is placed by your side, it doesn't seem like a The firefly beside the bright moon, my surname is not An!"

Mu Xue was also amused, in fact, she was willing to think so in her heart.After thinking about it, he said again: "What about you? Are you really planning to live like this for the rest of your life? What would you do if Su Yi came over to make friends with you?"

An Ran's originally excited face dimmed in an instant, and she said silently: "Sister Qingqing, I am different from you, I am just the humble dust on the ground..."

"An Ran," Mu Xue held her hand, and said seriously, "My news is better than yours. Do you know where Su Yi went when he wasn't in Ye City recently?"

Without waiting for An Ran to answer, she said: "He is going to see his fiancée. Su's parents are also there, what do you think this means?
"I can also see Su Yi's kindness to you. Without his protection, your life would not be so peaceful. I also believe that he is sincere to you.

"But no matter what the considerations are, you are not his best choice.

"Su Yi is a very calm person. Back then, the Su family was not the only one who could come out to be a general. As long as he became a general of the imperial court, it meant fighting the city lord's mansion. It was a thankless task.

"What's more, Su Yi and Sikong Ye are still good friends. But in the end, out of consideration for the family, Su Yi agreed to come out and become this General Wuwei."

In this way, it goes without saying how calm and rational Su Yi is. In such a person's mind, the interests of the family are above everything else.

A mere woman cannot influence his decision or change his life.

"So," Mu Xue said emphatically, "Anran, if you want to give it a try and take a risk, I won't stop you. I will give you enough money and arrange a way out for you. If you fail Now, you can go away and start your own life again.

"But if you don't want to try, I advise you to make a decision early and leave this place as soon as possible. After all, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Maybe, you will find a wonderful marriage of your own after leaving here."

An Ran was confused, and said with a wry smile: "When it comes to other people's affairs, I can always analyze calmly, but when it's my turn, I can't."

Mu Xue could understand, "This is a major event in life, and it really needs to be treated with caution."

An Ran didn't give up, and asked: "What about you? Are you still determined to leave?"

Mu Xue's smile slowly bloomed in the darkness, "I want to try it."

With An Ran's careful care and company, Mu Xue's body and mind recovered quickly, and the two sisters tacitly did not mention the fire.

After resting quietly in the room for ten days, Mu Xue finally felt that she could go out for activities.

She happily brought An Ran to Mu's house, her current home in name.

An Ran walked around in the courtyard, looking at the quiet and deserted courtyard, she was a little puzzled: "Why is there no one?"

"How could there be someone!" Mu Xue ran to dig a hole under the pepper tree in the courtyard, and replied casually, "I have become the outer room of the young city lord, so of course all the people here have to be dismissed. There was nothing valuable here, no It's worth leaving someone to watch the house, as long as the door is locked, everything will be fine."

An Ran came to her side, very curious, "What are you digging?"

Holding a shovel in her hand, Mu Xue dug out a deep hole, took out an oilcloth bag from it, opened it, and inside was a small brocade box.

Carefully unlocking the brocade box, he saw a piece of uncut jade wrapped in red velvet cloth, about the size of a baby's fist.

Holding the uncut jade and shaking it in front of An Ran, Mu Xue asked, "Does it look familiar?"

An Ran looked at it carefully for a while, a little uncertain, "It does look familiar, but you also know that I was too young at that time, so I can't remember clearly."

Mu Xue caressed the uncut jade in her hand, "This is a rough stone that my mother accidentally got. The raw jade cut out of it is said to be a piece of jade with spirituality. I also asked an eminent monk to consecrate it. I want to give it to you." I will be a protective Jade Buddha..."

It's a pity that something happened to the Marquis of Anding's mansion before the body-protecting Jade Buddha could be used.
