Chapter 21: Falling, Which Do You Choose?
"Su Muyue. When everything calmed down, Su Qi'an called the name word by word, as if this could make the jerky name more smoothly.
"Father. Su Muyue responded quietly and obediently: "My daughter returned to Beijing today, and she didn't have time to see her grandmother and mother. ”
"Your grandmother and mother went to Huguo Temple today to worship incense and didn't return," Su Qi paused, his eyes fell on the holy decree, frowned slightly, and said lukewarmly: "Although the emperor has sealed your identity as the county lord, you also have to remember that you are a member of the Su family, understand?"
In fact, Su Qi'an basically didn't have much impression of Su Muyue, after all, in addition to the princess's life, she was still the mother of the mother, and she was only able to win over the fifth prince when she brought her back, but she didn't expect this girl to fall into Zhuge Yi's eyes and be named the county lord.
Speaking of which, the emperor's edict as the county lord also had light on his face Su Qi'an, but the matter of partiality was related to Zhuge Yi, which made Su Qi'an as disgusting as eating a fly.
The entire capital knows that Zhuge Yi and Su Qi'an are at odds, could it be that Zhuge Yi wants to use this simple girl to break into the Su Mansion?
"Yes, father. Su Muyue looked at Su Qi'an's face with a cloudy expression, and couldn't help but smile in her heart, Su Qi'an said this because Zhuge Yi recognized herself as a righteous daughter, right?
"Su He, take Miss Six to her yard. Su Qi'an saw that Su Muyue was still well-behaved, so he said with a faint expression: "There are still important things for my father, you go back, I will inform your mother when I turn back, and find a nurturing grandmother for you to teach you well, so as not to insult the identity of the county lord." ”
Previously, the five princes had mentioned that Su Muyue's status was too low more than once, speaking of which, now that Su Muyue has the identity of the county lord, the five princes are not easy to shirk the marriage, right?
As soon as Su Qi'an thought of this, his heart finally felt a little more comfortable, and he waved his hand at the moment, signaling Su Muyue to follow Su He and leave.
"The tired father worries about his daughter, and the daughter retires. Su Muyue nodded, as if she didn't hear Su Qi'an deliberately not mention her identity as the county lord, in fact, she knew in her heart that Su Qi'an was just warning her that in this Su Mansion, even if she was capable, she was just the sixth lady.
It's just that she, Su Muyue, has never minded this identity, would she take Su Qi'an's beating in her eyes?
Su He was about to take Su Muyue to the previously arranged courtyard, when he hurriedly greeted Mother Xu, who was beside the eldest lady Chen, from a distance.
When Mother Xu saw Su Muyue, she was really surprised.
The girl standing beside Su He had a plain makeup, and although her facial features had not yet grown, she had already seen her first look, and even Su He was standing beside her with a little flattery.
He loved Su Muyue very much, so the clothes specially tailored for her were basically high-quality brocade, and the set that Su Muyue was wearing now was only thirty fragrant satin in Jiangnan every year, and Mother Xu knew that the rumors outside before were only eighty percent true.
Mother Xu wanted to see a trace of arrogance on Su Muyue's face, but she was as elegant and quiet as a clear spring, occasionally smiling shallowly, and holding a trace of ethereal ripples at the corners of her eyes, which looked extremely beautiful.
Just when Mother Xu looked at Su Muyue, Su He and Su Muyue happened to look over, and Mother Xu immediately put on a smiling face, and gently slapped her mouth as she walked, as if she said apologetically: " The old slave has seen Miss Six, and the lady has already cleaned up the yard when she heard that Miss Six is going back to Beijing, and specially arranged for the old slave to wait for the girl at the door, but before the old lady left, she talked about eating the glutinous rice cake made by the old slave, and the result was that Miss Six was wronged. ”
"What Mother Xu is talking about, my business is naturally more important than my grandmother's business. Su Muyue smiled shallowly, and she couldn't see her joy or anger at all.
"Steward Su, the old slave will take the sixth lady to Yueyuan later, and Steward Su doesn't have to follow. Although Mother Xu called herself an old slave in her mouth, her tone was completely an order, thinking that she had stayed by Chen's side for too long, and she didn't even pay attention to Su He.
"County lord, this ......" Su He has been a big housekeeper in Su Mansion for many years, and he still understands the rules, although he is unhappy in his heart, he will never show anything on his face.
"Since Mother has arranged for Mother Xu, Steward Su will go and get busy. Su Muyue nodded, looking extremely docile.
"The slave retired first. "Su He knows the rules and knows how to advance and retreat, if not, how can he be respected by his subordinates in Su Mansion?
Mother Xu saw Su He leaving, so she said with a smile: "Madame has already taken care of Yueyuan, just wait for Miss Six to ......"
"Mother Xu, you must know more about the rules in this house than me, right?" Su Muyue smiled, stared at Mother Xu with heavy eyes and said, "Could it be that Mother Xu doesn't know that I have been made the county lord by the saint?"
"Old slave...... The old slave knows. Mother Xu was stunned and spoke with some hesitation.
"Winter Solstice, how should I punish the county lord if he doesn't salute?" On the way to the previous time, Su Muyue taught the law of the Yan Yan Kingdom about the royal family to the winter solstice, you must know that the winter solstice is not only literate, but also has a very good memory, which has been confirmed in the previous life.
"If you go back to the county lord, according to the law, you should slap your mouth thirty times. After Dong Solstice finished speaking, without waiting for Xu's mother to defend herself, she said: "But Su Fu has its own rules, and those who are disrespectful to their masters must break one leg to set an example." ”
Su Muyue glanced at the winter solstice with appreciation, but she didn't expect that she would secretly even write down the rules of the Su Mansion, which was worthy of being the person she valued.
"So, Mother Xu, do you choose to slap your mouth thirty or break a leg?" Su Muyue was talking here, and the winter solstice over there had already kicked at the crook of the stunned Mother Xu's leg.
Mother Xu staggered, knelt in front of Su Muyue with a puff, and then reacted, and said urgently: "The old slave is just too happy to see the county master, and the old slave is the lady's person, and the county master is not qualified to punish the old slave!"
"So that's the case...... Su Muyue nodded, looked at Mother Xu condescendingly and said, "Then let Mother Lao Xu lead the way!"
Mother Xu was a little confused, so she secretly looked at Su Muyue more than once, she clearly wanted to punish herself before, but why did she give up again?
Could it be that I was scared because I heard myself mention my wife?
It must be so!
Mother Xu thinks that even if Su Muyue is named the county lord, what will happen?
What about the birth mother being raised as a flat wife?
After all, isn't it to live by looking at the face of the lady in this mansion?
Thinking of this, Mother Xu only felt that her steps were becoming more and more brisk, but seeing that Su Muyue did not have any sense of amazement at the luxurious Su Mansion, and even the girl behind her did not squint, she couldn't help but sink slightly in her heart at the moment, shouldn't Su Muyue, who was raised in the countryside, be vulgar?
How can it be so indifferent?
It's just that when her gaze swept over the calluses on Su Muyue's hands, she couldn't help but sneer, it seems that this Su Muyue is just pretending!
"Mother Xu, be careful!" When Mother Xu just turned around, she didn't know why she was hit, and then she only had time to scream, and the whole person had fallen from the corridor pavilion more than one person high!
