"Is Second Miss Du busy?" Because Du Mu Zhou was here, in order to establish his good image, he could only be this cold.

Du Ruyu was a little embarrassed. To be able to seduce her brother-in-law in front of her elder sister, this really made her …

"I heard that Zhou Shuang'er is in your house. Is that true?"

Du Mu Zhou raised his eyebrows. She did not know about this matter because she did not pay attention to Mu Ling Shao!

Mu Lingshao was a little confused, how did Du Ruanyu know?

"Shuang-er, I've always treated her as my little sister. I heard that she ran away from home, but I don't know where she went. After all, I wasn't the one who took care of her!" After all, the matter between him and Zhou Shuang'er was known to the entire city.

Everyone knew that Mu Lingshao was a married man, but the Second Young Miss of the Zhou Family had given up all hope of marrying Mu Lingshao, and had even blocked the doors of the Xiao Family several times. Even though Mu Ling Shao had repeatedly ordered the servant to shut the door and not let her in, but Zhou Shuang'er had truly received the teachings of Mu Lingshao.

In the worst case scenario, he could just avoid her, but what really made people helpless was that Xiao Qing Qing, Mu Ling Shao's youngest uncle, actually especially liked Zhou Shuang'er. Every time Zhou Shuang'er came, Xiao Qing Qing insisted on letting her have dinner with him!

Afterwards, the two of them waited for Mu Lingshao to return!

Mu Ling Shao had also been set up like this a few times. From then on, the first reaction he had when he saw Zhou Shuang'er was to run!

"Oh? Do you really not know? " Du Ruanyu asked with a smile that was not a smile.

She then explained to Du Ruanyu, "I visited the Duke of Xiao's estate two days ago and did not see Miss Zhou Shuang'er. I believe that Second Sister obtained the wrong information and I know that she wanted to remind me of this, but I still trust Young Master Mu's character. If he said it doesn't matter, then it really doesn't matter!"

Du Mu Zhou's firm tone shocked Du Ruanyu! So she could accept it? This was really surprising!

"Elder sister, what are you saying? Young Master Mu is also my future brother-in-law. You two are truly loving each other. Hurry up and get married. I can't wait to drink your wedding wine!" Du Ruanyu pretended to compliment.

"Don't worry, it'll be soon!" Du Mu Zhou gently smiled and held Mu Ling Shao's hand.

Mu Lingshao's entire body went stiff the moment he was shook hands with Du Mu Zhou. He thought to himself: Why is it that every time she answers, it's always different?

When Du Ruanyu heard these words and saw these intimate actions, she did not have much to say. She could only continue watching and leave.

After Du Ruanyu stopped looking over, Du Mu Zhou withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted. His face was slightly red, and to be honest, her ears were already red.

"You …"

"You …"

The two of them went at the same time, causing Du Mu Zhou to feel even more nervous. Just now, she had purposely pulled Mu Ling Shao's hand in order to anger Du Ruanyu, but she didn't know how to explain it.

"I'm truly sorry for what happened just now. I didn't intentionally pull you. I …"

Actually, he hoped that Du Muzhou wanted to hold his hand. Honestly speaking, his hand was quite big and quite warm, so any woman who was held by such a handsome person should feel very lucky and then happy. She shouldn't be thinking about escaping from his hand like this!

Du Muzhou was truly different!

"It's fine, I was hoping that you did it on purpose. You can hold my hand at any time, do you understand?" Mu Ling Shao rubbed Du Mu Zhou's head and said gently.

Du Mu Zhou nodded. At this time, she could only agree!

Just like that, not long after, the banquet ended.

Allure specifically gave a jade bracelet to Du Muzhou, and he thanked her.

To tell the truth, they were one of the ordinary people, and these things were unavoidable.

After the banquet ended, Du Mu Zhou returned to his room.

Du Mu Zhou was somewhat tired. Although he had experienced this many times in his previous life, this was the first time he experienced it in this life. Thus, he was really tired and went to bed early.

Thinking about it, there would probably be many people in the palace who would not be able to sleep.

The next day, his mother-in-law came back to pick herbs. Du Mu Zhou was sitting in the Cultivation Pavilion, reading a book.

Today, the Cultivation Hall was a little deserted.

"A wooden boat." Nanny lightly called out to Du Mu Zhou, who raised his head and put down the book. He was slightly overjoyed as he walked over to a needle nanny and removed the basket from her back.

Du Mu Zhou himself didn't go up the mountain to pick herbs, so she couldn't personally see where most of the herbs were. She could only see the appearance of a needle that her mother-in-law brought back …

"I've gathered a lot of herbs these few times. Next time, I'll go with you so that I won't be able to experience it myself. How am I going to survive when I'm in danger?" Du Mu Zhou frowned.

Grandma Needle only smiled. How could she let Du Mu Zhou go with her? Moreover, how could a young miss, Du Mu Zhou, endure this kind of suffering? However, if Grandma Needle knew about Du Mu Zhou's experiences, she probably wouldn't have said that.

"Oh right, someone ordered the Snow Pear Paste two days ago. The store was sold out a long time ago, so Grandma needs to remake it."

Coincidentally, the person who ordered the Snow Pear Paste was actually the younger brother of Zhou XIwen and Zhou Shuang'er, the active Young Master Zhou at that time.

It was quite funny for Du Muzhou to think that he was also a pure and innocent little gongzi.

"Oh? Can't you make it? I already told you all the methods! " Grandma Needle frowned, dissatisfied with Du Mu Zhou's words.

Du Mu Zhou immediately waved his hand and said, "Grandmother is mistaken. They said by name that they wanted you to make it. I have no other choice, right?" Towards this, Du Mu Zhou was also very helpless!

"As long as what you do is the same as what I do, then what others see will be the same thing, and no one will be able to tell who did it. So, you have to work hard and try your best to turn what you make into something similar to what I do. If you let me do it alone, do you think I can do it?"

Du Mu Zhou saw that his mother-in-law was truly angry and quickly apologized, saying that it was her fault.

Jian Jia who was standing at the side also felt a little scared, she didn't expect that in this kind of situation, a old granny with a needle would be so tough. She just thought that she would be scolded as well.

"You too, what are you doing day after day if you don't accompany your young mistress to study medicine? Hm? The two of you, must make a decent set of cosmetics today. Otherwise, don't even think about sleeping! " A old granny with a needle coldly snorted.

Du Mu Zhou and Jian Jia looked at each other, their hearts were complaining nonstop, their mother-in-law's sternness was too scary!
