Chapter 155: Aunt Xu

Mu Zhiyue, who had packed up, and when he walked into Ciyan Hall, he heard the noise and laughter in the main room, and the few little maids standing outside the door were also talking to each other, not knowing what they were discussing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Only the six flowers in the patio are wilting and drooping, but the scorching sun is high, and even the color is not as bright as before.

When Mu Zhiyue walked in, she found her, and hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Hello six girls."

Mu Zhiyue was in a good mood today, and she didn't care about the rudeness of a few little maids, and nodded with a smile.

The little maid lifted the light blue thin silk brocade curtain, bypassed the mahogany spring screen, and saw a lot of people standing in the hall.

Except for Mu Zhiwan, the eldest daughter of the eldest daughter of the Mu family who married in the capital, the other sisters all gathered in this huge hall, and even the four-year-old Mu Xinwei came.

Mu Zhiyue saw at a glance the woman sitting on the small pestle and pulling her grandmother to wipe her tears, combing the slanted fallen horsetail sideburns with a huge begonia silk flower, and the turquoise tortoiseshell between her foreheads was gorgeous.

Wearing a lake-green silk silk shirt, covered with a layer of makeup and yarn, a piece of blue-green red agate treasure flower fell from his waist.

The second aunt still likes to dress herself up as young and delicate as in her previous life, but she doesn't know that she is already twenty-six this year, and even the eldest daughter is already the same age as Mu Zhiyue.

Looking at the second aunt's tearful appearance, Mu Zhiyue was a little embarrassed, and it was a little bad to come forward to ask for peace at this time.

Fortunately, the third aunt Rong, who had a cool temperament, spoke out to help her out, "Okay, Sister Ting, since they are all back, there will be time to talk to their mother in the future, you see that the children are here and don't know whether to say goodbye or not, wipe your tears quickly, don't let the children laugh."

Mu Ting is the name of the second aunt and grandmother of the Mu family, and there are not many people who can call her that now.

If you talk about the second aunt and grandmother of the Mu family, this person is also special, her biological mother Aunt Xu was also the daughter of an official eunuch, and this family is still a family friend of the Mu family.

At that time, Mu Zhiyue's great-grandfather also joked that the two families wanted to form a family of children and daughters, but later, in order to win the heart of her grandfather, she wanted her grandfather to marry her niece, that is, her grandmother, and her great-grandfather stopped thinking about it.

Unexpectedly, a few years later, the head of the Xu family was implicated in the imperial examination fraud case, and the situation was widely implicated, which caused a student riot and was dismissed and investigated.

In the end, he was imprisoned for life, and his family was exiled by the man and sold into slavery by the woman.

The great-grandfather couldn't bear the fate of his former friend's wife and children, so he dredged up the officials who supervised the matter at the time, found a slightly more lenient penal place for the Xu family's son, and bought the wife and daughter of the old friend in the name of others.

It's just that Mrs. Xu's mind is not firm enough, and she was depressed soon after, and after a long time, the medicine stone was so advanced that she finally died.

And Lord Xu's eldest daughter was saved from this disaster because she had already married, and his daughter had nowhere to go and lived in Mrs. Xu's in-law's house.

It's just that the family didn't treat the second daughter well, but made it difficult because they felt that they couldn't borrow the power of the Xu family and had to help others raise their daughter.

The second daughter then came to the Mu family to celebrate Mrs. Zeng's birthday to tell her all her sufferings, and finally begged her great-grandmother to take her in.

The great-grandmother was kind-hearted, and when she saw that the girl was also good-eyed, and she was still the blood of her great-grandfather's old friend, she asked her grandmother's opinion and helped her grandfather accept her as a concubine.

Mu Zhiyue didn't know what her grandmother's mentality was at that time, but then Aunt Xu died a few years after giving birth to her second aunt, claiming that it was an old illness.

It's just that now that I think about it, how could it be so coincidental, less than a year after my great-grandmother died, Aunt Xu followed, and I don't know if there was a grandmother's handwriting.

But the turning point of the matter happened a few years after the death of Aunt Xu, when the emperor purged the dynasty and found out that the second assistant at that time used his power to use his power for personal gain, excluded dissidents, and turned out a lot of unjust, false and wrongful cases.

One of them was the case of fraud in the imperial examination that year, and it was found out that it was because Lord Xu was dissatisfied with what the second assistant had done and had written a letter to accuse him, so he secretly hated it, so he made this unjust case.

After a bitter grievance, Lord Xu was released, but at that time, according to his imprisonment, it had been seven years.

Things are not people, everything is no longer what it used to be, a family is not a family, and a wife has passed away.

That Lord Xu was a man with great ambitions, put away the desolation in his heart, and regained the resurrection of the saints.

After his official fortune prospered again, he felt sorry for his youngest daughter who had fallen into the Mu family's concubine, but after all, the separation between yin and yang could not be made up.

So he poured all his guilt into Mu Ting, not only took his granddaughter to raise her at home after discussing with Mrs. Mu, but also crossed the Mu family to set her a family affair of her choice.

Old Lady Mu and Old Lady Mu were quite dissatisfied with this, but after all, Lord Xu was an elder and an old friend of his deceased father, so it was not easy to tear his face.

In the end, Mu Ting did not return to Mu's house until she got married for less than a year to prepare for marriage, so her relationship with Mrs. Mu was very weak, and now it is just a show.

These things were all talked about when Mu Zhiyue's grandmother chatted with her before she got married in her previous life, think about that time, she nestled in her grandmother's lap, and her grandmother gently stroked her long hair, and told these past events in a gentle tone.

Looking at the second aunt at this moment, there is no sadness or joy in her heart, this person lived in the mansion before the Mu family's accident in his previous life, and he made it clear that he wanted to draw a clear line with the Mu family.

It wasn't until the Mu family did not completely collapse that she gradually resumed her contacts.

At that time, her maternal grandfather had already passed away, and her husband's family was powerful, and he was not as good to her as before, so he didn't want to rely on the Mu family again.

It's just that Mu Zhiyue didn't do much for the Mu family at that time, although because Uncle Huaiyuan was sick in bed and Cao Bosen was far away in Liaodong, she couldn't run for the Mu family's affairs, and she didn't have much ability as a female dependent, so she could only watch the Mu family decline.

But after all, she didn't help her mother's family, so she had no position to blame Mu Ting for this, but this couldn't stop her dislike for Mu Ting.

Mu Ting listened to Rong's words, took out the handkerchief in her sleeve and wiped the corners of her eyes, and said with a slightly hoarse voice: "Look at me, I haven't seen my mother for almost two years, so I was a little excited for a while, and I ask my mother not to blame."

Mu Ting is married to the eldest son of Tianjin Wei Commander Tongzhi named Lu Zheng, and now his father has an experience from Qipin.

Mu Zhiyue remembered that his second brother-in-law was indeed a person who was good at drilling, and with his father's help, he coaxed his father's top boss, the commander of Tianjin Wei, with a mouth full of orchids.

So much so that he was promoted very quickly in his previous life, and his status was close to that of his father in only a few years.

It's just that once a person gains power, he wants more things, so the background of the bad wife in the family is finally no longer prominent, and he is quickly abandoned.
