Chapter 70: Trust
Time flashed for a few days, and the incident of the Qing monk walking into the water and dying seemed like a long time ago. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After the first few days of talking, gradually, no one mentioned it anymore.
It was as if it was not a person who died that day, but a cat and a dog who died on the side of the road.
The things that the government said about re-investigating the matter have been said several times, but for some reason there has been no action until now, losing the initial heat, and even the common people are not so enthusiastic about this matter, talking more about today's food prices and tomorrow's fun, so this matter has been put aside as a matter of course.
Others don't know why, but Mu Yanchun knows, but that's not something she can question.
She can't say either.
Among them, the biggest change in the Jing'an Hou Mansion in the past few days is the change in the housekeeper authority between the second aunt and the fourth aunt.
The slaves and maids in the house all said that Xu was distressed that the second lady had just been misconceived, and the second lady was now idle, so he wanted to return the housekeeping power to her.
As for why the fourth aunt stayed in her own yard these days and never went out, those maids only thought that she was in a bad mood, so she didn't want to come out. Don't think about anything else.
Mu Yanchun stared at the flowers outside the window, his eyes thoughtful.
Mu Boyong really became suspicious of the Jiang family and grounded her. It's just a grounding.
If the monk hadn't died, if he had told everything, the Jiang family would not have stayed in this mansion so unharmed today. In this comparison, the punishment is quite light.
On the side, Ying'er saw her young lady's thoughtful appearance, leaned over gently, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" Did you know the news that the prince was going home, and he was too happy? ā
Mu Yanchun was slightly stunned, and then he came to his senses from that thought.
In this way, Jin Lin seems to be about to arrive in Boling.
A few days ago, I heard that he had left Bianjing and was going back to his hometown, and the little maids like Ying'er counted the days with their fingers all day long, and she also remembered that he would be able to return to Boling in about two days.
Jin Lin is her own brother, and if he can come back, it must be fake to say that she is unhappy.
She was almost overjoyed to hear that he was going to return to her hometown, and she hadn't seen him for months, even if it was just to meet him and get rid of her lovesickness. But if he can learn more in Bianjing, she hopes that he can stay in Bianjing well.
She can handle the affairs in the house, and she doesn't want him to be distracted by these things.
Jin Lin was not such a scheming person, she had rejoiced for him because of this, and she was glad that he couldn't see the ugly things in this world. But later, she was worried about his simplicity for many years.
In such a place, a person who is too pure and innocent hurts only himself, but also the people who love him.
He really didn't have the ability to protect himself, and Mu Yanchun didn't have the feather that could protect him and retreat with his whole body.
What she feared most was that he listened to the villains and became more and more alienated from her. He is too gullible to trust others, and the slightest influence of others can shake him.
It's just like ...... Just like Mu Boyong at some times, Mu Yanchun was a little scared, afraid to see him looking at him with those eyes, but his eyes were full of distrust.
She had seen it once in her previous life, and it was enough.
She will never forget that look for the rest of her life, and she will never let go of it until she dies.
"Yes...... Mu Yanchun's eyes were dark, and he finally looked at Ying'er with a smile, "I'm very happy that he can come back." ā
He was the younger brother of her mother's compatriots, how could she be unhappy to see him?
Ying'er also looked at Mu Yanchun happily and said, "When the prince comes back, our courtyard will finally be much better." These days, the head of the Luo family has deducted a lot of monthly silver from our courtyard, but she said that she wanted to be frugal and said that she wanted to reduce unnecessary expenses or something, every time she looked back on her grandmother to find her, she had all kinds of reasons to make things difficult, it was really hateful! ā
He said in a muffled voice: "Master Hou obviously knows these things, but he doesn't care about ......."
"These things are things in the backyard of the back house, what can a big man take care of?" Mu Yanchun glanced at her and frowned slightly, "Besides, it's just some silver, which is really nothing in the eyes of Master Hou." It's okay if Hou Ye doesn't mention it himself, if you wait for Jin Lin to come back, you must not mention this matter to him. ā
"Why?" Ying'er was a little aggrieved, lowered her eyes and asked in a glutinous voice, "It's us who are clearly suffering?" It's okay not to go to Hou Ye to sue her, why can't you call the shots? The prince is a person from our courtyard! ā
Mu Yanchun shook his head, took a low sip of tea, and Fang gently reminded her, "The second aunt did deduct some of the silver in our courtyard, and those little maids did despise us because of this, but the Hou Ye didn't know about these things." In his eyes, this silver is only a matter of one or two copper plates, and even he thinks it is better to be frugal from the bottom of his heart. ā
She sighed, "There's nothing wrong with the second aunt being thrifty, even if there are some mistakes, it's a small mistake." But if we get into trouble with the second aunt because of this trivial matter, it means that we don't respect our elders. Regardless of whether the second aunt has a problem or not, our fault is on the bright side. ā
Ying'er is smart or smart, but she is still younger. If she entered the Jingwang Mansion with her as in her previous life, but only three or four times, she would become extremely sophisticated. The environment creates talents, and there is no such environment in the Jing'an Hou Mansion, so she can only be carefully trained by herself.
"Moreover, Hou Ye has always disliked men to worry about these trivial matters in the back house, and he is deeply ashamed. If Jin Lin really sued the second lady because of us...... Ying'er, what do you think Hou Ye will think of Shiziye? ā
Ying'er's face turned pale, and the whole person sobered up, and lowered her head heavily, "Master Hou...... must also feel that the prince does not respect the elders. Moreover, Hou Ye has always loved the second aunt, maybe he will have a bad opinion of the prince because of the second aunt's pillow wind or two. The most important thing is that the prince meddling in these things will only make the Hou Ye feel that he has lowered his value and will ...... in the future It's not a big deal. ā
Mu Yanchun nodded, she could see this, it was already amazing.
Ying'er bit her lip, "Miss, I'm sorry, I almost did such a stupid thing, if it wasn't for Miss reminding ......" Her eyes were slightly red, "If it's Starling, they would be fine, but Ying'er is your personal maid of Second Miss, so you shouldn't be so rash and imprudent." ā
Finally, he knelt down slightly, "Ying'er asked for punishment, and I hope that Miss will not be angry." ā
"I'm not angry." Mu Yanchun smiled, "There should still be punishment if you shouldn't be punished, you have to remember today's events and remind yourself from time to time." I'll punish you to pull out the weeds in the garden outside, and don't hurt your hands. ā
"Miss Xie, Kaig." Ying'er was ordered to be punished, and finally walked out of that guilt.
