Chapter 127, Conspiracy
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the Mu Chenxue sisters and brothers sneaked out of the house with their mothers to see their grandmother who lived in the nunnery outside the city. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info thought that there was no danger and escaped the eyes of the eldest lady. But the two aunts Xu and Ma, who didn't want good things, came to the backyard to find fault. Although Fanghua, who stayed behind, guarded the door and did not let people into the backyard, this matter was reported to the eldest lady by the two aunts.
Fortunately, Mu Chenxue invited his father as a shield and temporarily resolved the crisis, but the matter was not over. On the morning of the third day of the new year, Aunt Cheng brought the ninth brother to the room to ask for peace, although the eldest lady did not pursue the matter, she still deliberately embarrassed the two. Fortunately, Mu Chenfeng said a few more words according to what his sister taught, and the eldest lady asked the two to get up.
From the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the eldest lord does not need to go to the palace to take up his post, with the eldest lord in the mansion, even if the eldest lady deliberately makes things difficult for Aunt Cheng's mother and son, she will not do too much.
And since the third day of the Lunar New Year, some distant relatives of the shogunate, who can rush to Jixian County to pay New Year's greetings, have also rushed over one after another. Since the fourth day of the new year, the shogunate has been feasting every day, and it is even more lively than in previous days. Mu Chenxue didn't have to go to the inner courtyard to support because he was sick, and Brother Jiu'er, as a concubine, naturally followed the eldest master to receive guests in the outer courtyard.
The eldest lady left Aunt Cheng in the backyard on the grounds that the fifth sister needed someone to take care of her. This is the intention of Mu Chenxue, rather than letting his mother go to the inner courtyard to make rules, it is better to stay in the backyard and come freely. Anyway, she is not sick, and her mother just needs to recuperate.
"Miss, the slave maid went to the inner courtyard to see today, the second lady and the third lady are helping the eldest lady to greet the guests, those guests can't stop praising the two, and the third lady's proud nostrils are facing the sky!" Fanghua was wronged by her own young lady, such a good thing, but the young lady wanted to hide in the backyard and not come out, but let the third miss take advantage of it.
"It's just a group of relatives who don't want to be motivated, just want to come to the shogunate to fight the autumn breeze. The third sister likes to be in the limelight. You just look at the fourth sister and almost don't show her face, you know that these people don't matter at all! "The third sister hasn't had a chance to leave the house for a few months, and it's rare that so many guests have come to the house, so she naturally wants to show her face more. And these people want to get benefits from the shogunate, so naturally they are all good to say. And the fourth sister, as a young lady from the house, naturally looks down on these people, so she also took the limelight by the sister in front of her.
"Miss will turn eleven years old this year, and in ordinary people's homes, she has also reached the age of discussing relatives. The eldest lady doesn't think about this, why is the young lady not in a hurry! "This is really the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry. Fanghua is dedicated to her own young lady, and even these things help her think about it.
"My business, the eldest lady is naturally not in a hurry. But this contrasts my mind, if this is the son, he will discuss marriage, with the hatred of the eldest lady for us, he will never choose any good family. It's better to wait! "Just kidding, at the age of 11, I decided to get married, which is simply early love. And she has already made a promise to a lover, how can she care about the relatives that the eldest lady chooses for her.
"Miss!" In these days of the New Year, you can't move needlework, so it's rare for Mu Chenxue to calm down to read books and practice calligraphy. Fanghua saw that her young lady was very anxious. Thinking about this, I have to discuss with Aunt Cheng, at least when the eldest master comes, let Aunt Cheng blow the wind on the pillow and settle the family affairs for the young lady earlier. She made up her mind, as soon as Miss got married, she would coil up her hair and be an aunt in charge for Miss, in order to repay Miss for her kindness, she didn't plan to marry in this life.
The shogunate has been busy until the tenth day of the first month before it quieted down, and the curtain morning snow raised these days, and on the eleventh day of the first month, he came to the room with Aunt Cheng and Brother Jiu'er to ask his father and eldest lady to say goodbye.
"The fifth sister has been raising her for these days, but she is all well?" Mu Qian glanced at his daughter, and waved his hand to tell the three of them to get up. He often goes to the backyard these days, and his daughter is always sick and has no energy, but now it seems that she is more energetic.
"Back to my father's words, my aunt takes care of her daughter every day, although she has not asked for medical medicine, but she has raised her for these days, and she is also much more energetic!"
"Since it's okay, then follow Aunt Cheng to the room these days to say goodbye! You're not too young, and you're in school again, and when you have time, you can learn how to take care of the house with your mother! "Aunt Cheng has been talking about her daughter in front of her master a lot these days. That's why Mu Qian talked about it in front of the eldest lady.
The eldest lady didn't expect the lord to talk about this in front of everyone, according to the age of the fifth sister, she should learn to be a housekeeper by her side like the fourth sister, but the eldest lady never taught the concubines this, even if the second sister was going to get married after the New Year, she didn't care about this matter.
"The master can think about his daughter everywhere, which is the blessing of the fifth sister. But the fifth sister is still young and in good health, although she is just learning to be a housekeeper, she has a lot of trivial things to deal with in the house every day, and she is very tired just sitting and listening. It's better to wait a few more days and wait until the fifth sister is well! The eldest lord glanced at his wife, although he did not obviously refuse, but he politely refused on the grounds that his daughter was ill, and he couldn't insist more. With a little head, this matter will be passed first.
"The weather is good these days, and we can go out together as a family to see the lanterns!" There are only a few festivals in the year when girls living in boudoirs can go out, and the Shangyuan Festival is one of them. This big lady can't stop even if she doesn't like it.
"It's okay, since the fifth sister is already in good health, then let's go out with the fourth sister and them on the Shangyuan Festival!" The eldest lady did not allow the fifth sister to follow to learn to manage family affairs, and Aunt Cheng was still a little disappointed, so it can be seen that the eldest lady finally allowed her daughter to go to the Lantern Festival with her, although she was still uncomfortable, but at least she was not as sad as she was just now.
The people in the room were very happy, but only Mu Chenxue looked at the eldest lady with a puzzled expression, with her understanding of the eldest lady, the eldest lady should have tried everything to prevent her from going out. It is impossible to obey it like this because of the master's words.
Seeing that the eldest lady looked at Tian's mother, the calculation in her eyes flashed, and she knew that this trip was not so simple, and it seemed that she had to make more preparations. At least keep yourself and Brother Jiu'er safe.
Back in the backyard, Aunt Cheng took Jiang's mother back to her house, her daughter was going out, she found a lot of jewelry, planned to dress up her daughter well, and turned out her daughter's new clothes a year ago, planning to add some new embroidery on them, so that even if they were not newly made, they could wear freshness.
Looking at the mother who was excited and busy, Mu Chenxue had to hide the worry in her heart and only told her younger brother about it.
"Sister, do you mean that on the Yuan Festival, the eldest lady will trouble us again?" Mu Chenfeng's face was worried, just now he was still happy to be able to go out.
"Yes, so Brother Jiu'er remembers, you must follow the eldest brother closely that day, whatever the eldest brother does, you will do it, and don't leave the eldest brother!" No matter how vicious the eldest lady is, she will not hurt her eldest son.
The two sisters and brothers discussed for half an hour, and then they went to rest. But Mu Chenxue was still a little worried, and at nightfall, he asked the secret guard who was guarding outside to send a message to the pawnshop in the four seas, wanting to ask Baoru to protect him in the dark on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
