My Crown Prince Consort Is a Firecracker! - Chapter 2634
2634 Living at the Mu Estate
Mu Xingchen was also extremely depressed right now.
He very much wanted to run up and comfort this little lady, but in the end, he felt like his words of comfort would be weak and powerless.
Mu Jingfeng’s expression was taut.
His daughter’s interrogation in front of Lesheng Gate earlier had made him lose all face. A heaven-clamoring wrath also rose up in his heart.
There was no wonder that this little lady in front of him was her daughter. She could similarly infuriate him until his insides were smoldering!
Mu Jingfeng took a deep breath and said coldly, “You have already achieved your goal. What do you plan to do after…”
“Qingya, have you prepared the crown prince and Qiaoqiao’s court?” Mu Cang directly cut off Mu Jingfeng’s words and turned to look at Mu Qingya.
Mu Qingya nodded quickly and responded, “Yes, yes. Magnolia Court has already been tidied and swept clean. The crown prince and the crown prince consort can move in anytime.”
Mu Cang was rather assured of this daughter-in-law’s ability in managing the household. He nodded when he heard her response and turned to say to Qiaoqiao with a smile, “Qiaoqiao, since you have returned, why don’t you stay at home for a couple of days?”
“Your Highness, Qiaoqiao has been separated from us for many years, and this reunion has been difficult. I entreat Your Highness to allow Qiaoqiao to live at home for a period of time.” Mu Cang hastily added, remembering the crown prince who was standing on the side like a Buddha.
“Okay.” His Highness the Crown Prince agreed. “We and the crown prince consort will be bothering the patriarch during these few days.”
Joy showed on Mu Cang’s old face, but his brows also revealed relief and embarrassment.
Look at how the crown prince was saying these words. It was polite and distant, and he did not feel good about it.
Wasn’t it just right and proper for his granddaughter and grandson-in-law to stay for a couple of days when they returned…
Forget it, one couldn’t do things all in one breath. Even if he wanted to slowly mend relations with Qiaoqiao, he couldn’t be too anxious.
The patriarch sighed and then turned to instruct Mu Qingya, “Make sure that the crown prince and Qiaoqiao’s court does not lack in anything.”
“Yes, this daughter-in-law will be attentive to their needs. Father can rest assured.”
The patriarch nodded and then turned to look at his stoic-faced granddaughter again. “Qiaoqiao, you and the crown prince need to get settled since you have just returned. When you have finished arranging Magnolia Court, come over to find Grandpa, okay?”
Qiao Mu raised her eyelids and looked at the old man. When she saw that his eyes were filled anticipation, she nodded reluctantly.
Mu Cang was instantly delightged. He nodded repeatedly and said, “Your grandmother’s body is doing poorly, and she hasn’t been able to get up much during these years. Grandpa will bring you to see her.”
Qiao Mu tilted her head noncommittally.
Mu Cang did not continue talking with the little fellow. He saw that she seemed tired, probably from the events of the day. Hence, he quickly told the little fellow and the crown prince to go settle into Magnolia Court.
Afterwards, he turned around and glared at Mu Jingfeng, who was wearing a cold expression. “You come with me!”
The old man then left with long strides and his hands behind his back.
Mu Qingya smiled at Qiaoqiao. It was not overly familiar, but not too distant. She looked at her with limpid and clear eyes, saying, “Qiaoqiao, I will bring you to Magnolia Court.”
“After you, Your Highness.” Mu Qingya stretched her hand out politely, gesturing for the crown prince to walk first.
Crown Prince Mo walked first while holding the little fellow’s hand.
The two of them tacitly did not glance at Mu Xingchen when they walked past him.
