Chapter Eighty-Nine: Beizhuang (Seeking Support from the First Order~)
My sister must have heard something to say, so she misunderstood the eldest sister, and this must be the case. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Mu Jin said goodbye to Mu Qinxue before returning to his own yard, this back and forth made him feel tired and panicked, not because of physical exhaustion, but more because of psychological fatigue.
Xiangxi thoughtfully sent a handkerchief soaked in ice water, and wiped his face little by little, Mu Jinlin held her hand, and couldn't help sighing: "You're still the best Xiangxi." β
The little girl's face turned red, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand, "Master, what's wrong with you, it's not ashamed to say this suddenly?" β
"It's not because of Aunt Jiang's business."
Mu Jinlin told Xiangxi what was going on in a deep tone, and sighed at the end: "Why did my sister say something like that? β
Xiangxi didn't know what was going on between the second miss and Aunt Jiang or the eldest lady, so she didn't know how to persuade her grandfather to say a few words, she thought for a while in embarrassment, and then said with difficulty, "Xiangxi has been in front of her since she was a child, and what she knows and sees, the second miss has always put you on the tip of her heart, and no matter what she does, she will never harm you!" β
"Xiangxi, you have liked to speak for your sister since you were a child." Mu Jinlin smiled bitterly and stopped talking.
The cicadas chirp constantly.
In the past, when the Tang family was alive, they had already begun to prepare two months ago, and this year it was taken over by the Luo family, and there was little experience, so it was naturally delayed for many days before taking people to Beizhuang.
It is not easy to travel in carriages and horses, except for the aunts and companions who have been on the table in each courtyard, there are only the young masters and young ladies in the house, plus the maids who follow, and there are no more.
When he went out, Mu Boyong always paid special attention to the rules and pomp, although the Jing'an Hou Mansion was not good, but it was not so bad that he couldn't even afford the honor guard, thanks to Mu Boyong's blessing, there was no shortage of ice tea and vegetables and fruits on the carriage, and all the courtyards were very satisfied with it.
The only fly in the ointment was that the road ahead was closed, and Roche did not greet the passing officials in advance, so it was delayed for half a day.
Finally, when I arrived at Beizhuang, it was already sparse and dusk, and the sky was red and cloudy.
Mu Boyong has always been pampered and can't stand it, and when he arrives in Beizhuang, he doesn't bother to pass the meal and gather with a large family, so he only asks them to go to the courtyard where they used to live to rest, and they don't have to go over to say goodbye, and they can rest after eating by themselves.
This village was originally called Dongyunju, is a Zhuangzi who has been living for some years, it is rumored that there was a very famous Xiangguo who lived here, and then passed down for several generations, and fell into the hands of Mu Boyong, he has always liked to be vassal, and he also built a temple in the back mountain for the Xiangguo who didn't even know the name, and every year he had to take people to worship to feel at ease.
So far, I haven't seen him make a name for himself.
Mu Yanchun privately thought that he had listened to the nonsense of the warlock in the rivers and lakes, and thought that building a temple would allow him to rise to prominence, but unfortunately it had no effect for many years, so it can be seen that the matter of rising to the top is destined to fall on him.
The courtyard where Mu Yanchun habitually lived was still picked by the Tang family when she was there, the scenery here is unique, the courtyard is directly connected to the back mountain behind the door, it is an extremely green and dense bamboo forest, and sometimes there are a few pines and cypresses between them, which makes people feel a piece of green at a glance, and the mood is much more relaxed.
She used to like to walk around in the back mountains, but because the mountains were too big, her mother was worried that she would get lost, so she took her hand and walked with her, watching her look at the falling pine cones and rejoicing, watching her be frightened by the hare that suddenly shrunk into her arms, touching her head and comforting her over and over again: "Chun'er is not afraid...... Chun'er is not afraid of ......"
This courtyard is still the same courtyard as before, and it hasn't changed at all, but the person who used to be is no longer there.
Mu Yanchun here is rarely sad, but Luo is sullen over there.
"Why didn't Master Hou come to our yard, could it be that he was still angry that I didn't do a good job during the day?" Luo's eyebrows frowned tightly, and he impatiently kicked the kneeling maid below, "What a waste!" Let you go and invite Hou Ye over, you can't do this kind of trivial thing! β
"Mother, don't be angry with these little girls." Mu Qinxue came over and stopped her in vain, and told the kneeling maid below to let her out, before saying, "Father is probably tired, you call someone to invite at this time, and it is common for him not to want to move around." β
"But this broken yard is dirty and messy, look at your moss...... Look at the potted plant in the middle, what kind of thing is that......" Luo was indignant, "In the past, when the Tang family was here, I just endured it, but now that the woman is gone, why can't I pick a good yard?" β
"Mother, these are all things that the master has put a lot of effort into arranging, and they are all liked by scholars, and even more so by father, if you go to your father like this, he will probably be angry."
Luo Shi was speechless for a while, and muttered a few words indignantly at the end, "I don't understand these Lawson things, this yard was stuffed to me by the woman of the Tang family back then, so I don't want things she disdains!" β
"Mother, don't worry, I will naturally have a way to let you live in the Tang family's courtyard when the time comes, you have to be patient."
"What good idea did you come up with?" Roche couldn't help but be happy on his face.
"Whether it's a good idea or not, you'll have to try it to find out." Mu Qinxue hooked a smile, "But most of the time...... Mu Yanchun couldn't think of going here. β
"What's the idea?"
"This ...... I have to ask the stupid maid in Mu Yanchun's room first. β
Mu Qinxue has actually made up her mind in her heart, and she also thinks that Mu Yanchun will most likely be recruited, but she is a normal person, and she is eight points sure to say that it is forty percent, and ten percent sure that it is seven percent.
She told Luo that Mu Yanchun probably didn't want to go there, but she was 100% sure that Mu Yanchun would fall hard and never get up again.
She told Luo Che her plan as it was, firstly, to make her feel relieved and not to be frizzy and irritable to ruin her big things, and secondly, she was afraid that she would be impatient to wait, so that Mu Yanchun noticed the abnormality and became vigilant.
Third, it is because there is one thing that needs to be done by Roche. This is something that only Roche can do.
Mu Qinxue waited for a while, and then saw that the maid was brought in, still looking stunned, and she looked naΓ―ve.
"You came out this time, and you weren't known by the other people in the second lady's room, right?"
Starling tilted his head and looked at her suspiciously, "Second Miss's room...... No one. β
Mu Qinxue breathed a sigh of relief.
I heard her next sentence say, "But Wen Yan, who is in the same room with me, saw it." β
Mu Qinxue's chest froze, and she couldn't help but curse secretly, she was really a fool!
