Cannon Fodder Strategy

Murong’s stepdaughter (11)

"Xiaohe." Ming's mother is now quite old, but time has been particularly kind to her. Time seems to have never stopped on her. There is no trace of having given birth to two children at all. She is much older than she was when she was young. She was very mature and charming, with a seductive aura in her every move. No wonder she still fascinated Murong Fan and doted on her so many years later.

She sat next to Murong Xiang'er who had a straight back. When Lily came in, she lowered her head and was talking to Murong Xiang'er. She even lovingly lifted up a strand of Murong Xiang'er's hair that was hanging down. The two of them were like She only raised her head when her beloved mother and daughter, Bai He, came in. Her hands had not yet moved away from Murong Xiang'er's shoulders. It was not until she saw her daughter's cold expression that she frowned slightly. She only thought that her daughter was doing it for herself and Murong Xiang'er. He was extremely indifferent to her despite his close attitude, seeming to sigh silently.

After Ming's mother married into Murong's family, Ming Lily was equivalent to losing her father first and then her mother. Lily was not the original owner. When she saw this intimate scene between Ming's mother and Murong Xiang'er, she didn't feel too envious or distressed. , she nodded slightly to Mother Ming. There were still outsiders in the palace, so she nodded unfamiliarly: "Mother."

Murong Xiang'er's eyes moved away from the indifferent Li Zhaoyang, and first fell on Li Yanxi. She raised her eyebrows slightly, but when she saw him sitting on the chair, she frowned and quickly looked away. Speaking out, her appearance is not as beautiful as Ming Lily, but she has a cold and noble feeling. If the original owner compares with her, even if Murong Xiang'er's appearance is not as good as the original owner, her overall temperament is several grades higher than hers. .

Ming Yijian kept a cold face and said nothing. He and Ming Baihe were the same child, and the two siblings had similar looks. His blue attire made him look majestic. After the death of Ming's father, the relationship between the two siblings gradually became estranged when they entered the Murong family. He was grateful for the kindness of the Murong family and liked Murong Xiang'er, a cold and noble eldest daughter. He didn't like seeing his sister look like a tortured child, and he was not close to her, especially when Ming Baihe's love for Li Zhaoyang was exposed, which made him even more unhappy with this sister. Last time Lily was sent to Zixiao City to celebrate her wedding. Logically speaking, it was him, his biological eldest brother, who should send her off, but he regarded Ming Lily as ashamed, so in the end it was Murong Chuiqing who sent her off.

It is ironic to say that when Ming Baihe got married, her biological mother and eldest brother did not come to see her off. The person who finally sent her to Zixiao City turned out to be Murong Chuqing, who had bullied her for many years. Lily didn't like Murong Zhuang's favor in her heart, but compared to the mother and son in front of her, she felt even less favorable towards Ming's mother and mother. The cold attitude between the two mother and daughter made everyone in the Tianshan Sect see the clues, but Mr. Gan The uncle and nephew didn't want to interfere with the two women's business, so they all made excuses to drink tea with their heads down, smiling and saying nothing.

Lily pushed Li Yanxi and walked towards the position left by Li Zhaocheng for the two of them. The wheels made a clicking sound as they rolled on the ground. Ming's mother glanced at Li Yanxi, and her dreamlike eyes quickly looked at Li Zhaocheng, who was sitting in the front seat:

"Xiang'er and Master Zhaoyang are getting married. Logically speaking, the husband should go there in person, but the Murong family really has something to do, so I will take this trip to apologize to the prince on my behalf." Ming's mother gave her a blessed gift, and she She has an alluring appearance, and after bowing down, her posture is indescribably good-looking, and even Mr. Tianshan Paigan couldn't help but look at her. But Li Zhaocheng's eyes did not fall on her. On the contrary, he happily greeted Li Yanxi and the two of them sat in the specially reserved seat on the other side of him, and asked someone to bring some tea, fruit, and fruits to his son with concern. What Ming's mother said was ignored by him, and he said goodbye. Ming's mother went down with a look of embarrassment on her face. His eyes turned towards Lily.

She hoped that Lily could see her current situation and help her out, but Lily thought that she had just entered the mission. Ming's mother turned her head away as if asking someone to fill her with tea. Ming's mother was dumbfounded. After a while, no one called her to get up. She had also learned some martial arts in her early years, but after marrying into the Murong family, she Years ago, she only did housework and served her husband every day. Unlike when she married Ming's father and the couple wandered around the sky, her years of comfortable life had already made her martial arts useless. She only squatted for a while before she felt a little uncomfortable. It was a bit hot, so she coughed twice as if to cover it up. Mrs. Li, who had always looked cold, seemed to have discovered Ming's mother's situation, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth:

"Logically speaking, the Murong family and I, Zixiao City, can be regarded as close relatives. Madam Murong is too polite. Master Murong has secular affairs to attend to. I wonder why Young Master Murong didn't come this time?" She asked. When Murong Chuqing came to Chuqing, Ming's mother hesitated, "Zhuqing's wife was pregnant earlier but didn't know it. She injured her body while practicing martial arts and lost the child. It means that the child has no chance to meet his parents. Chuqing received the news on the same day in Zixiao City. I hurried back to Murong’s house and didn’t have time to say goodbye to the prince, but it was his fault, so I’m here to apologize for him.”

Li Zhaocheng's ancestor was granted the title of king with a different surname in his early years, and it was hereditary. Therefore, most people in the world called him king instead of city lord.

Hearing the news from Ming's mother, Li Zhaocheng knew for sure that Murong Chuqing had already run away to catch the thief and take the stolen goods. Unfortunately, he didn't get any evidence from him. Now, naturally, he could only let the Murong family talk nonsense. .

Several people changed the topic. When Murong Xiang'er, who had been sitting quietly, heard that Murong Chuqing's matter was ignored, her clenched palms gradually relaxed. Leng Huishu turned to look at Lily. Come over, a pair of wonderful eyes are full of coldness.

Feeling her gaze, Lily also turned her head, and her eyes met Murong Xiang'er's. When Lily found that she was staring at her, Murong Xiang'er's expression remained as usual, and even the corners of his mouth slowly turned up, and his face The two looked at each other with unspeakable contempt and disdain for a long time. Her eyes first flashed with ridicule and deep disgust, and then she frowned again, with a look of contempt on her face. Lily just remained quiet. Staring at her, their movements were quickly noticed by Ming's mother. She seemed to be close to Murong Xiang'er and said something. Murong Xiang'er then turned away with a cold expression and stopped staring. Lily looked over here.

This meal made everyone in Murong's family uneasy. During the meal, Ming's mother tried to change the topic several times to the marriage between Murong Xiang'er and Li Zhaoyang, but Li Zhaocheng never mentioned it. Whenever she wanted to talk about it, When the topic turned this way, Li Zhaocheng didn't answer. Ming's mother felt heavy in her heart. She still didn't understand anything at this time. She knew that the Li family might be a little dissatisfied with this marriage, otherwise they wouldn't be so indifferent to the Murong family. .

It was related to the reputation of the Murong family, so Murong Fan entrusted Murong Xiang'er's marriage to her. This was a sign of trust in her, and she really didn't want to disappoint Murong Fan. It's a pity that Murong Fan had something to do and couldn't come this time. Ming's mother was anxious and panicked. She was just a woman, and she was no match for Li Zhaocheng in terms of martial arts strategies and methods. If Murong Xiang'er's marriage happened in her hands, Wrong, even if Murong Fan doted on her again, she would have difficulty gaining a foothold in the Murong family in the future. Ming's mother's eyes fell on Lily, who was sitting next to Li Yanxi, and her lips pursed tightly.

On the surface, Li Zhaocheng held the banquet this time to cleanse the Murong family, but the Li family did not mention the marriage that Ming's mother wanted to discuss. When Lily and Li Yanxi were about to leave at the end of the banquet, she and Li Yanxi left the hall. Going down the stone steps in front of the main hall, Li Yanxi showed an impatient look on his face. Before he could speak, Lily was called from behind.

"Xiaohe, are you still blaming your mother for being cruel?"

With a sad look on her face, Ming's mother slowly walked towards Lily. Her skirt that was pulled to the floor was swaying along the way, and her eyes seemed to be filled with mist. Lily stretched out her hand to push Li Yanxi's chair. Ming's mother looked at Li Yanxi from It passed over her body and soon fell on her daughter's face, as if she was about to cry.

Her appearance was indeed endearing. Not only did Murong Fan like her, but even the original owner felt sorry for her. Therefore, even though she suffered hardships and was tired in the Murong family, she was never willing to ruin her mother's happiness. She gritted her teeth and endured any hardships. When she came down, Ming's mother didn't know how much her daughter loved her. Lily felt cold in her heart, but the expression on her face was very dull.

"Mom, I want to talk to you alone if I have something to say, okay?" She walked out of the shadows, her body smelling fragrant. Li Yanxi didn't like it. He knew very well the grudges between Lily and Ming's mother. If Li Yanxi was Lily might agree to the real Young City Master after hearing this, but Li Yanxi was not the original owner, so she was about to refuse. For some reason, Li Yanxi reached out and squeezed her palm, and said softly: "I'll wait for you below. faster."

It's just that he actually wanted to avoid the characters in the mission. Lily was a little surprised and began to wonder if the original owner's wish for this mission was really as simple as she showed. She nodded lightly, and Li Yanxi reached out to push him. When the chair approached the edge of the stone steps, Ming's mother was startled. Just as she was about to open her mouth and scream, she saw that the chair that was supposed to roll down flew directly up and slid down the long steps like a meteor. Finally, he landed firmly on the ground without making any sound.

"I didn't expect that the young city lord survived the catastrophe, but he was lucky enough to have such amazing internal strength..." Seeing this scene, Ming's mother opened her mouth, her expression a little uncertain, she praised, but Lily didn't want to After greeting her, he stretched out his hand to straighten his hair that was messed up by the night wind, and asked directly:

"Is something wrong?"

"Are you still weird?" Ming's mother froze, but she quickly took a step forward. When she saw Lily's hair that was blown straight to her face by the wind, Ming's mother wanted to reach out and lift it away for her. Unexpectedly, Lily took a step back subconsciously. Ming's mother's hand fell free. Somehow, she remembered the scene when she was cutting Murong Xiang'er's hair. A look of sadness quickly appeared on her face, as if she had been touched by Lily. This action was so exciting that I couldn’t help but say:

"I know you hate me, and you hate me for marrying you to the young city lord, but isn't the young city lord alive now? He is not like the rumors say, he will not live to be eighteen. What else do you have to complain about? ?” (To be continued~^~)
