Chapter 116: Conspiracy Again
The mahogany carved and painted box was flipped in Mu Zhimo's hand, and she carefully checked the time of half a cup of tea and couldn't find where to find the password, and the lock could not be opened by brute force, and it was tossed for a long time, and then she had no choice but to do it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
This box can be locked like this, and it must be something unusual inside. If you want to open it, it is estimated that it will not be so easy, Mu Zhimo pondered and looked around the room, frowned slightly, and paused for a moment before getting up and walking to the bed, lifting the bed curtain and sticking the box on the bottom.
After everything was tidied up, she lay down on the bed again, closed her eyes, but she didn't feel sleepy, her mind was full of everything she had experienced and the vague and chaotic memories of this body, the deceased biological mother Aunt Ye, Mu Zhixuan with a strange attitude and eyes, Mrs. Mu who was hot and cold, the Liu family who hated her to the bone, the rumored Aunt Xue, and the goddess of the four kingdoms who were suddenly heard now...
I don't know how many secrets are waiting for her, and these unknowns make her too uncertain about her future path. Mu Zhimo opened his eyes and looked at the top of the tent with entwined branches and flowers, and after a long time, he hooked his lips and smiled...
She lay on the bed with her eyes open, and she didn't know how long it took, when a gust of wind came from the house, she saw a man in black kneeling on the ground outside the screen, "Master! ”
Mu Zhimo collected his thoughts when he heard this, so he didn't lie down anymore, and after cleaning up for a while, he walked out of the room bypassing the screen, looking at Ye Yi with clear eyes, and smiled, "I know everything, you don't have to blame yourself, just pay more attention in the future, at least don't be powerless like today." ”
Yeyi was a little surprised, but it only took a moment for his face to return to his usual calmness, and his eyes were even more determined. "Thank you, master!"
Mu Zhimo nodded and didn't say anything more, Yeyi returned to his previous hiding place, and it didn't take long to hear the sound of movement outside the door.
Liuyi smiled and came in with a snack. followed by Mama Liu and Jinping, both of whom looked smiling, Mama Liu looked at the snack and blinked Mu Zhimo twice when she was done.
Seeing this, Mu Zhimo suppressed the smile that she wanted to show.
"Miss is up, today's snack is made by the slave maid myself, Miss must taste it!" Liuying took a few steps to Mu Zhimo's approach, and brought the things she was carrying to Mu Zhimo. grinning, with a look like you are waiting for Mu Zhimo's praise.
Mu Zhimo smiled, and took advantage of Liuying's inattention to pick up a piece of dim sum and stuffed it into her mouth. "You'd better eat first, miss, I'm very suspicious of your craft."
Liu Ying looked at Mu Zhimo with a smile in her eyes, and then looked at Liu Mama and Liu Ying who were smiling behind her, with very aggrieved expressions. "Miss. You are bullying slaves and maids again! ”
"Oh, then if Qin Feng comes to bully you, you won't be wronged!" Mu Zhimo said in surprise.
Liuying was a little dazed when she heard this, and looked at Mu Zhimo with a wooden face, what does Miss mean by this...
The three of them couldn't help but smile when they looked at Liuying, especially Mama Liu, and the love in her eyes was even more difficult to hide......
The days of pleasure are short, and the loneliness is unbearable. A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and Mu Zhimo stayed in his yard every day except to ask for peace. And the Mu family is also rare during this period of calm and calm, everything is quiet like the vast sea, I don't know how much wind and waves will be hidden.
Relative to the calm of the Mu Mansion, Linyun City is very lively these days, on the eighth day of the lunar month, it is advisable to marry, Nacai, make an alliance, pray for blessings, Lin Mansion on this day to the Han Mansion to hire, but on this day Lin Yueliang is a rare person who has not seen a figure, in addition to sending a housekeeper to send a generous gift, some only have a few auspicious words of congratulations.
What happened in Chaofu that day, the masters and slaves present were not stupid, or they knew that they didn't talk about it, just because this marriage was originally a royal marriage, and this happened by chance before the marriage had already provoked Long Yan's anger, if there were any ugly words, it would not be a slap in the face of the emperor!
So there were few rumors outside, and the ancients didn't have any entertainment and pastime, so on the day when the Lin Mansion hired the Han Mansion, although the main owner was not seen, and the officials rarely came, but this did not prevent the onlookers from watching the excitement.
That day, Lin Dechun's mother, Lin Shi, woke up from a fainting and was a little dispossessed, looking at Lin Yueliang who was weak on the bed, she couldn't help crying, and she didn't know how to eat these days.
However, Lin Dechun not only dealt with the matter resolutely, but also prepared the dowry for the Han Mansion in two days, which was much more grand than before.
But only he knew the shame and resentment in his heart, and his eyes were staring in the direction of the palace.
Where does the Lin family not know what Lin Dechun thinks, Lin Yueliang now only has five rooms, and there is the niece of her mother's family who has been ignoring her, she used to let him mess around, but in the heirs of the Lin Mansion is still detained, the main room has not yet entered the door, so it is naturally impossible to let the room have a body first, but now that the Lin Mansion is about to die, so he has to make plans early.
I'm afraid that if Han Qingqi has any more problems, then the hope of the Lin family will be gone.
The last resort has now become unavoidable.
The Lin family originally hated Han Qingqi, but now they have to let their son marry such a woman back, and the worry and anxiety all day long made her grow old quickly.
The Lin Mansion was resentful and worried, but Han Qingqi in the Han Mansion was alive like a puppet, and she didn't speak since she woke up, no matter how much Mrs. Han persuaded her, she was indifferent, but she only said a word when she saw the bright red bride price on the day of her next appointment
"Oh, it's the color of blood!"
After a few days in a row, on the thirteenth day of the lunar month, red lanterns were hung in many places on the street, and the flavor of the New Year began to become more and more intense.
In the morning, Mu Zhimo asked An to come back and sat on the couch around the quilt to read, and when he was tired, he looked at the flying snow outside, and fell asleep on the beauty couch in a trance.
A pink figure flashed in, holding a copper basin in his hand, and when he saw Mu Zhimo who opened his eyes on the couch, he said worriedly: "It really woke up Miss, does Miss want to sleep again?" ”
"Isn't Miss disturbed by the sound of the backyard, she has to get up half a quarter late on weekdays." Mama Liu followed her into the house. It's just that her face doesn't look very good, and when she saw Mu Zhimo's clear eyes, she didn't persuade her to lie down more, took the towel from Liuying's hand and waited for Mu Zhimo to wash.
"I got up and sat down after sleeping lightly today." Mu Zhimo said with a smile, looked at Mama Liu's hidden expression, and then leaned over to listen to the sound outside the house, and said with some doubts: "Listening to your words, it seems that something is going on outside, what, is it noisy?" ”
Mama Liu didn't speak yet, but Liuying took the words with a worried face. "Miss, you don't know, we were making snacks in the kitchen before, and I don't know why a snake suddenly jumped in. On this cold day, why do you think there is this thing in the backyard? Later, after a while, another maid found a pair of boots with high feet in the stone crevice behind the rockery, and several maids saw it and chewed their tongues in the backyard, and the slaves and maids also rushed over after listening to the trouble. Mama has already reprimanded them. Now Jinping is still outside to check this matter! ”
Mu Zhimo frowned, looked at Mama Liu, and saw Mama Liu nodding.
This snow garden is not big, there are only a few maids in total, the boots behind the rockery are obviously worn by men, and the snake is also too strange, although it is a cold winter day, but the kitchen will be warm. Suddenly, something came in and scared a few people out of the way, but fortunately, Liuying had the medicine powder that Miss had made before. Frightened, she closed her eyes and took it out and sprinkled it.
"But did you notice anything wrong with those maids?" Mu Zhimo pondered and spoke, then looked at a place in the room, and retracted his gaze for a moment.
There is no threat to snakes in winter, and trying to release snakes is probably to scare Mama Liu, but there is a pair of men's boots hidden behind the rockery, which is self-evident in the courtyard of such a boudoir woman.
Mama Liu looked at Mu Zhimo, and pondered for a moment before speaking: "The maid who found the boots didn't talk much since we arrived, but the two rough maids next to them made a lot of noise, and they both said that it was not that they were careless and lazy, but that someone deliberately hid in this place. ”
Mama Liu lowered her voice as she spoke, and said a little anxiously: "The stitching method of that shoe is the same as the stitching method you usually do embroidery, Miss!" The old slave also looked at it a few times, just like the old slave urinating and waiting beside the young lady, it can be seen that this needle is like a hair, I am anxious that this matter is for the young lady, so I gave Jinping a look and asked her to stay and look at a few in the yard. ”
Mu Zhimo sneered when she heard this, is she really impatient? Yesterday's incident has just passed, and some people can't wait today, and the people in this courtyard are all sent by the old lady, and it is interesting who did it.
"Those restless ones have finally made a move, so let's do it!" The cold glint in Mu Zhimo's eyes flashed, no matter who she did, yesterday's account had not been settled with them, and today she made another move, since they were so idle, she didn't mind finding something for them to do.
"Master!" A cold voice sounded, and then Ye Yi flashed in front of Mu Zhimo, holding a burden in his hand, "Someone just entered Jinping's house, and this burden is in the closet." ”
Jinping was puzzled, walked over and took the burden, opened it and took a look at it, and handed it to Mu Zhimo, "Miss! ”
Mu Zhimo sneered when she saw this, just now she looked in the house and knew that Ye Yi had gone out, but she didn't expect to get this thing back, it was really a good means, and sure enough, I couldn't do it when I was muddy!
"Do you see anyone around the kitchen?"
Yeyi shook his head, "When my subordinates went out, I only saw a maid sneaking into Jinping's house, and now I knocked me out and got out, as for the subordinates in the courtyard, I didn't see anything wrong for the time being, it should be that no outsiders came in." ”
Mu Zhimo didn't say anything when she heard this, but just covered her eyes and pondered for a moment.
"Mama...."
As soon as Mu Zhimo opened his mouth, he heard a voice outside the door from far and near, noisy, and he could hear Mu Yunyan's voice as soon as he heard it, and Mu Zhimo's eyes moved slightly and stopped talking in time.
The three of them glanced at each other, and they came really fast!
When Mu Zhimo and the three of them went out, they saw Jinping and a few maids also rushing over, with a look of urgency on their faces, and after seeing Mu Zhimo nodding, they retreated behind her.
Mu Zhimo looked at the oncoming group of people, and hooked the corners of his mouth almost undetectably.
Old Madam Mu walked hurriedly with a cold face and was helped by Mama Yin to walk towards this side, Liu Yun took Mu Yunyan to follow her, looking at Mu Zhimo as if she was smiling, followed by Miss Auntie with different faces, the group was full of style, and they knew at a glance that the person who came was not good.
Mu Zhimo and the others took a few steps out, and when they saw that Mrs. Mu had arrived, they leaned over and bowed in a regular manner, "Granddaughter greets grandmother!" ”
Old Madam Mu just glanced at Mu Zhimo coldly, pursed her lips and walked into the main house, the Liu family naturally followed the back in, but Mu Yue approached Mu Zhimo's side, and said sarcastically: "Tsk, big sister really has a lot of things to do every day, grandmother is so old, but she can't stand your toss again and again!" ”
Mu Zhimo stood and ignored her, Mu Yue looked bored, snorted and followed in, Mu Xuan wanted to come over but was pulled by her aunt and followed into the house.
Mu Zhimo watched everyone enter the house, and followed behind, now what else does she not know, this Mu family really can't stop for a moment.
As soon as Mama Yin helped Mrs. Mu to sit down, Mu Shi looked at Mu Zhimo at the door, and shouted angrily with a dark face, "Evil girl, don't come and kneel down for me yet." ”
Mu Zhimo was walking behind slowly, and the Liu family and several young ladies of the Mu family, who had entered the house early, sat down, and she stood very conspicuously like this, and then was stared at by Mrs. Mu and shouted angrily, and a soft snort sounded when she lowered her voice.
Hearing this, Mu Zhimo still walked slowly, walked to the middle of the house, but did not kneel, and said with a smile: "Grandmother, what's wrong?" The granddaughter returned home yesterday, and she has been in this courtyard except for the morning greeting, but what did the granddaughter do to make her grandmother so angry! ”
"Since you don't want this face, then I don't have to keep it for you!" Old Madam Mu sneered, and then said to the mother-in-law at the door: "Pull this unruly thing down for me and lock it up, and when Xuan'er comes back in the evening, I will definitely use her to correct my Mu family's style, and the reputation of several girls in the Mu family will not be ruined in her hands." ”
Mu Zhimo smiled when she heard this, "Grandmother, but did your granddaughter hear it wrong, and change customs?" also ruined the reputation of several girls in the Mu family? She looked at Mu Shi and sneered: "Grandmother doesn't love her granddaughter, and granddaughter doesn't force it, but what does this sudden desire mean?" The grandmother felt that her granddaughter's life was so low, and she was free to do whatever she wanted! ”
Mu Zhimo's words made Mu Shi half angry, and pointed at her for a long time, Liu Shi gave Mu Yunyan a look when she saw this, Mu Yunyan slowly walked over and approached Mrs. Mu, while giving Mu Shi a smooth breath, while respectfully and worriedly persuading... (To be continued.) )
