As soon as these words fell, the man's action of counting the silver tickets also stopped.

Stuffing the silver ticket into his arms, he handed a large envelope that had been prepared in advance to Yan Heshi, "This is the letter of appointment and the official seal, you only need to take these two things to take office." ”

When the things were handed over to Yan or Shi, he smiled and bowed his hand, "I congratulate Brother Yan here." ”

Yan or Shi happily opened the things and checked them, only then did he secretly breathe a sigh of relief, smiled, and said, "It's not all your credit, Brother Zhou." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then made a polite remark, and then Yan or Shi went home happily.

He spent 50,000 taels of silver, and naturally it was impossible for him to be a Beijing official, and after discussing with Mu Mingyue, he decided to go to the post on his own, while Mu Mingyue stayed in Beijing for the time being, and waited for him to settle down in the future before picking her up.

The next day, Yan or Shi left Beijing full of ambition. Not long after he left the city gate, Zhang Hua went to the palace study to see Chu Lige.

"Master, that person has already left the city gate, and the silver ticket has arrived."

Chu Lige knocked lightly on the table, looked up, and still had his usual cold and indifferent eyes, "Send it." ”

Zhang Hua's eyes rolled, and the question in his heart was like an ant bite, but in the face of the master's indifferent and cold eyes, he touched his nose and swallowed the question very consciously.

Then he replied solemnly, "Yes, master, my subordinates will definitely handle this matter properly." ”

Although he couldn't figure out why the master gave away the silver ticket that he had worked so hard to deceive, but after thinking about it, the master probably felt sorry for Miss Mu for the tens of thousands of taels that he bought for the house, so he sent the silver back.

Zhang Hua frowned, well, what reason should he make up?

Miss Mu is not a foolish person, and she is still a very principled person in some aspects.

Chu Lige didn't care what reason he would make up to let the woman accept the money, in short, he ordered this, Zhang Hua had to do it for him, as for whether he was distressed or not, it was a subordinate matter.

Zhang Hua thought about it for a long time, and finally thought that Leng Gang's cold sister was on an errand next to Miss Mu, and finally thought of a lame reason to send the silver ticket to Mu Xiaofeng.

"Food money for Leng Yue?" Mu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows, sat in front of the dressing table, looked at the stack of silver tickets in his hand, and couldn't laugh or cry.

"Qingruo, are you sure you heard it right?" Leng Yue is now her person, Chu Lige asked his subordinates to send a stack of silver tickets to say what is the food fee for Leng Yue, will it be the cart before the horse?

Could it be that Chu Lige still regards Leng Yue as his person in his heart?

Qing Ruo was in a hurry, and almost swore to the sky seriously, "The slave didn't hear it wrong, that's what he said." ”

"If only I heard me right." Mu Xiaofeng calmed down, only suppressed the question, and asked the Chu Overlord in person when he had the opportunity in the future.

About ten days later, a beggar appeared at the gate of the city.

"It is said that the beggar was unkempt, but he insisted that he was our Mufu's uncle, and later the officers and soldiers read his identity documents, so they let him into the city."

Mu Xiaofeng's heart moved, closed the account book, and looked at the girl with an obviously gloating expression, "Qingruo, you don't leave the house all day, where did you hear all this gossip?" ”

Qing Ruo was stunned, and when she saw that she had turned her face away, and even the account book was resting on the stone table, she immediately lowered her eyes and looked around with a little weakness.

"Hehe, miss, do you see if the branches of this maple tree next to the pavilion are sticking too far in?" Qingruo didn't dare to look at her, so she only diverted the topic left and right, "Tomorrow, the slave maid will let the gardener prune it." ”

Mu Xiaofeng's expression was cold, and he stared at her with a slight face, "Qingruo." ”

His expression was flat, and his tone was slightly heavier.

"I'm sorry Miss," Qingruo lowered her head, her voice as thin as a mosquito, "Yesterday, Brother Zhang Hua told the slave. ”

Mu Xiaofeng pursed her lips angrily, I really don't know what this girl has to hide from her. She knew that Zhang Hua had come to see Xiaobai yesterday. But she didn't know when Qingruo was so close to Zhang Hua? Still big brother?

Looking at Qing Ruo's ashamed appearance, a thought vaguely flashed through her heart, and after thinking about it, she laughed again, "Since Zhang Hua said it, that person must be our Aunt Mufu." ”

Yan or Shi, is it because the buyer was deceived miserably, right?

Leaving Beijing to go to work became a beggar and came back?

Yo ho, he has today, too!

Qingruo looked at the corners of the girl's eyebrows with a smile, and her hanging heart finally relaxed.

Compared with the gloating laughter of Mu Xiaofeng's master and servant, Mu Mingyue suddenly saw a man who was sloppy than a beggar running into the house, and he also called himself strict or timely, it was really more shocking than directly having a heavenly thunder slash her on the top of her head.

She was so shocked that she almost rolled straight out of her chair to the ground.

But she didn't roll in the end, because Yan He caught her with his extremely dirty arm, so in the end, Mu Mingyue was so frightened that she screamed and fainted.

However, when she woke up again, although the man she saw in front of her was a little thinner, his face and eyes were still the same person as Yan or Shi.

"Miss, that man went out to set up a stall to sell calligraphy and paintings again." In the maple forest, in the octagonal pavilion under the tree, Leng Yue's voice is the same as the feeling she gives people, always straight, cold and stiff, but fortunately, it is clearly organized, "Even Mu Mingyue is dressed as a Luo Jing cloth hairpin and goes out to sell on the street." ”

"She? She even dared to sell that delicate face? Mu Xiaofeng was slightly surprised, when Yan or that man would go out to set up a stall, she didn't think it was unusual at all, that man could do anything to get to the top, and he could definitely bend and stretch to achieve his goals.

If necessary, the man can even throw his face and self-esteem directly under his feet.

Can Mu Mingyue?

That woman is actually the same kind of person as Qiu Tianshu in her bones, both of whom have hearts higher than the sky and whose eyes are higher than the top.

She can pull down her body to sell, which is really impressive.

"If things are abnormal, there will be demons, you will continue to keep an eye on them for me."

"Yes, miss." Leng Yue answered, and was about to turn around and withdraw.

"Wait, do you know where Mu Mingyue has been haunting lately?" She always felt that something was wrong.

"It's near the Tianshui Bridge."

"Tianshui Bridge......" Mu Xiaofeng nodded thoughtfully, "Well, I know, you go down." ”

The fox's tail can't be hidden, so what can the dog man and woman do?

"Leng Yue?"

The girl who had just exited the pavilion swept over again, "Miss, do you have anything to order?" ”

"I want to ask you, when Yan or Shi set up a stall to sell calligraphy and paintings, did he do any righteous deeds? Or do you hear about what others say about him? ”

Leng Yue raised her eyebrows in surprise, "It's the slave who is negligent, and the slave is going to inquire." ”

On this day, Mu Tianda took two or three entourages to inspect the construction of the bridge, originally he was the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, this kind of thing did not need him to do it himself, but he has always attached great importance to this kind of matter related to the safety of countless lives, and he went to the Jinshui Bridge to investigate tirelessly.

Before arriving at the Jinshui Bridge, you need to pass through a residential area first, Mu Tianda abandoned the sedan chair and walked away, and saw a woman wearing coarse cloth clothes and a veil in the residential area carrying a blue zi.

I don't know what the woman was afraid of, but as soon as she saw them walking over, she immediately packed up her things in a panic and was about to leave.

Although Mu Tianda felt strange in his heart, he would not pay too much attention to a stranger, let alone a woman.

He didn't think much about it, and walked towards the Jinshui Bridge with his entourage without squinting.

However, I don't know if the woman was intentional or unintentional, and when she hurriedly avoided, she actually passed by Mu Tianda.

It's nothing, Mu Tianda had to give way to the side in order not to bump into her. But at this moment, the woman also panicked and avoided in the same direction.

It's okay now, people who were okay with each other, but because of this avoidance, there was a problem.

Everyone avoided together, and this really bumped in.

Of course, both of them are on foot, and even if they bump into each other, it's not a big deal, at most it's just a touch. However, when Mu Tianda avoided it, his arm accidentally brushed the woman's veil, and the thin veil was removed by him with a touch.

As soon as the veil fell, the woman panicked even more, blindly lowered her head and suppressed her throat, and said repeatedly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, please forgive me." After apologizing, the woman didn't wait for Mu Tianda to react, and walked away in a hurry with her head down and Lanzi on her shoulder.

Mu Tianda looked at her back, his eyes became complicated, and his face became even more angry for a while.

Although the woman had kept her head down, he still saw her face. And that face, he has been looking at it for more than ten years, and he is so familiar that he can't deceive himself even if he wants to deny it.

"Lord Muslim?" The entourage couldn't help but look at him a little strangely when they saw him standing in place with a heavy heart.

Mu Tianda came back to his senses and immediately smiled, "Oh, let's continue." The footsteps are still walking in the direction of the Jinshui Bridge, but the heart has been circling the person I saw just now.

Has she been reduced to the point where she has to make a living by selling herself?

Thinking of the coarse cloth clothes she was wearing just now, he couldn't help frowning, and finally sighed in his heart for a while. After the sigh, a feeling of pity crept up from the bottom of his heart.

No matter how disliked she was, she always had his blood on her body.

What Mu Tianda didn't know was that at this time, Aunt Zhang was crying to the old lady in the side hall of Suxi Hall about how difficult Mu Mingyue's life was.

The old lady was impatient with her crying, and looked at her with a headache on her forehead, "Then what do you want me to do?" ”

I cried with her for a long time, just to let her give some benefits to Mu Mingyue, and she understood Aunt Zhang's thoughts very well.

But when Mu Mingyue got married, didn't Aunt Zhang get a lot of dowry from the house to Mu Mingyue? Although she was angry in her heart, she still felt sorry for Mingyue and acquiesced to her pulling a lot of Mufu property over.

"Old lady, Mingyue's life is miserable now, I ...... I don't ask her for anything, I just ask her to live a stable life in the future. ”

"Settle down?" The old lady was puzzled, "How to settle down?" ”
