"Yes, Jixiang has followed me to Dali since I was a child, but she has always protected me, so that many times I forget that she is actually only three years older than me, and she is also a girl who needs love and care. Until now They have been with me for nearly twenty years, and they are really closer than family members." Mu Nanzhi also sighed, and suddenly thought of something, "Cousin, do you have a down-to-earth young man that you like? ?”
Lu Zhishan said with a smile: "What's wrong? Are you thinking about finding someone for Ji Xiang?"
"Jixiang is not young anymore. She is almost thirty. Although I can't bear to let her go, I can't keep delaying her like this." Mu Nanzhi felt very uncomfortable thinking about the white hair on Jixiang's temples. He put down his chopsticks and said in a deep voice. He said, "I mentioned this to her a few years ago. As long as she has someone she likes, just tell us and we will naturally make good preparations for her. But Jixiang refuses to marry, saying that she has to serve her." We have been kowtowing and shedding tears all our lives. I looked distressed and never mentioned it again. But this morning in the kitchen, I saw a white hair sprouting from Jixiang’s temple... "
Lu Zhishan reached out and held Mu Nanzhi's hand on the small table, and said softly: "Don't be sad. I will pay close attention to Jixiang from today on. I will definitely find a kind-hearted young talent to match him." Good luck to us."
"It can't be from out of town," Mu Nanzhi sniffed and added, "I can't bear to let Ji Xiang live out of town alone. I have to keep her under my nose. No one can bully her."
"Okay, okay, when the time comes, we must bring the person to Nannan first. Nannan will see that she is satisfied before making any fuss," Lu Zhishan said with a smile, while holding a chopstick of green bamboo shoots to Mu Nanzhi, urging, "Hurry up It’s almost too cold to eat.”

The two of them had breakfast in the side hall, and Lu Zhishan went back to the imperial dining room to put on his clothes. Mu Nanzhi finally entered the palace once, and naturally wanted to pay his respects to Lu Mingwei. Lu Zhishan did not object and asked Du Heng to accompany Mu. Nanzhi went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony together.
"I have seen the princess, and I would like to invite you to Jinan!" Zhao Ruhai saw Mu Nanzhi coming in and quickly saluted Mu Nanzhi.
"My father-in-law, please get up quickly." Mu Nanzhi said hurriedly. Mu Nanzhi knew that Zhao Ruhai had treated Lu Zhishan well when he was a child, so he had always been very respectful and polite to Zhao Ruhai.
"Thank you, Princess." Zhao Ruhai said.
"My father-in-law has really worked hard. I see that my father-in-law has lost a lot of money," Mu Nanzhi said as he looked at Zhao Ruhai. He took a sandalwood box from Du Heng and sent it to Zhao Ruhai. "My father-in-law serves the emperor. It was really hard, so I brought some tonics from my house to my father-in-law.”
"How dare you do this?" Zhao Ruhai was so busy that he bowed and took the box from Mu Nanzhi's hand, while saying, "Thank you, Princess."
Mu Nazhi waved his hand, indicating to Zhao Ruhai that there was no need to be polite, and entered the dormitory.
As soon as he entered the dormitory, Mu Nanzhi almost vomited out. The smell inside was really unpleasant. In addition to the smell of soup and medicine, there was also a lingering smell of fishy smell. Lu Mingwei had been so bedridden that he naturally ate and drank. Lazarus was in this small dormitory, and because of his illness, he couldn't be exposed to the wind, so the doors and windows were closed tightly, not to mention the smell couldn't be dispersed. In addition, the dormitory was still smelling of ambergris all day long. Fragrant, this mixed smell hits your nose, it's really disgusting.
