Chapter 6: Greetings
Mu Yan walked lightly and slowly.
Mother Qin seemed to dislike her for walking too slowly, and urged her several times halfway.
Mu Yan only pretended not to understand, playing with flowers and fish in the wind, and laughing lightly.
Mother Qin hated it so much that the roots of her teeth itched, but there was nothing she could do.
When I entered the courtyard of De'an Garden, I heard the crisp laughter of the whole room, which seemed to be very lively.
And the few maids guarding the door of the main room looked at Mu Yan coldly, saluted very perfunctorily, and shouted: "Girl." ”
Mu Yan knew that these people didn't look down on her, so she didn't think so, nodded lightly, and Taohong picked up the curtain for her in time, and she stepped in with the corner of her skirt.
Mrs. Mu was having breakfast in the east room, and there were quail soup, goose stew soup, a plate of steamed flower cake, and four exquisite seasonal vegetables and side dishes on the table, and Mu Qing and Mrs. Mu were also there.
Mu Qing seemed to be telling a joke, and the old lady Mu and the maid mothers laughed.
As soon as Mu Yan entered, the laughter immediately stopped.
Mu Qing also frowned and glared at her fiercely.
Mu Yan suddenly didn't see it, and greeted him and curtsied towards Old Lady Mu.
Mrs. Mu is the eldest daughter of the Murong family in Shengjing, and the ancestor of the Murong family is also the founding father, who attacked the marquis for three generations, and in the generation of Mrs. Mu's father, although she also inherited the ancestral marquis, but the court changed too quickly, the emperor implemented a new policy, and all kinds of rights were divided very quickly, and the military power controlled by the Murong family was divided by the new forces of the imperial court, leaving only an empty shelf for the Murong family.
Today's Murong family is no longer what it used to be, it is no longer prosperous, it is just a vain name, and it has no substantive rights.
Mrs. Mu married into the Mu family and had two daughters and three sons.
Now that it has reached the year of the sixtieth year, the children and grandchildren are around the knee, and it is also a happy year.
It's just that the old lady of the Mu family has been traveling for a long time, she is a woman and a Taoist family to support this family alone, it is indeed very hard, and now she enjoys her family, although her spirit looks very good, but her face is full of wind and frost, and her sideburns are like snow, which is very old.
Fortunately, she is very good at dressing up, and today she wore a royal blue cocoon silk embroidered with a large peony placket, and the lower body is a horse-faced skirt with a russet lotus pattern, which is luxurious, plus a string of red agate bracelets on her wrist, which is even more wealthy, and the red golden lotus on her head is shaking and reducing her age a lot.
Old Lady Mu glanced at Mu Yan, her expression was very detached, and she said lightly: "Excuse me, get up." ”
In her previous life, Mrs. Mu treated Mu Yan very coldly and detachedly, and Mu Yan did not have very deep feelings for her, so she could pass it on her face.
Mu Yan thanked him and stood up.
Mrs. Mu casually asked, "Are you feeling better?" ”
Mu Yan lowered his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "Thanks to the old lady, it's much better." ”
"Well, that's good." Old Madam Mu glanced at her and didn't ask any more.
But Mrs. Mu asked, "Have you eaten?" ”
Mu Yan politely replied and ate, and then lowered his eyebrows and waited aside.
Mrs. Mu didn't need her to serve, so she waved her hand and said, "You are not in good health, so you should go back and rest." After thinking about it, he said in a low voice: "Don't forget to study the female celebrity and female virtue in your spare time." ”
Mu Yan nodded yes.
Old Madam Mu froze slightly, glanced at her, and said slowly: "You know, I don't expect much from you, I just hope that in the future, you will be my granddaughter-in-law, and you can take good care of my grandson's diet and daily life, and the rest ......."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Mu didn't say any more, just waved her hand lightly and said, "Okay, you can go back." ”
Mu Yan knew in his heart what Mrs. Mu was going to say, wasn't it the family of the powerful who married a wife?
And she doesn't have any background, to put it bluntly, the aunts in this house are all from a higher background than her.
She smiled bitterly in her heart, but her spine straightened up without yielding, and she smiled and said: "Old lady Xie mentions, Yan'er remembers, Yan'er will definitely learn the rules with her heart and not let you down." ”
Everyone was stunned.
Ping Suri Mu is a man of few words.
Xu is because of low self-esteem, seeing people's backs are always ricketed, today is very special, not only single posture upright, but also can say such a thing, it is really surprising.
For Mrs. Mu, in addition to surprise, she was even more worried.
Coming out of De'an Yuan, the maids just now looked disdainful and disdainful, and they didn't even bother to salute.
Mother Qin was naturally happy and proud when she saw it in her eyes.
Straight fists of pink and green.
Mu Yan looked cold, looked at them around, and left without saying a word.
Those maids were looked at by Mu Yan at first, and they were still a little panicked in their hearts, but now when they saw her leaving, they hummed proudly and whispered under the porch.
"I thought she would drown last time she fell into the flower pond, but she had a big fate and survived."
"Who said no, it's just that she is also thick-skinned, and she has been dying and not leaving, do you really think that the eldest young master of our family is going to marry her?"
"Bah, she deserves to be a grandmother too?"
A little maid named Si'er raised her eyebrows and spat on the ground, while the rest of the people pursed their lips and laughed, pushing the Si'er and quipping: "She is not worthy of being a grandmother, are you worthy of being a grandmother." ”
The four children think that they are quite beautiful, and they often feel sorry for themselves, feeling that they were born to the wrong family, if they were born in a rich family, what grandmother's wife is, they are all in her pocket.
Therefore, he smiled lightly and said: "If she can be a Mu Yan, I can naturally be it." ”
"Hmph, who should I be, a rampant hoof who doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth, is talking about dreams in this idiot."
A figure suddenly appeared behind him, snorting and sneering.
The maids were startled, and hurriedly turned around to look, it didn't matter what they saw, several people were frightened and their faces turned green, especially Si'er, who was trembling all over, and was so frightened that they quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
The person who came was a ten-year-old girl, the little girl was wearing a very plain plain Xiaoxiang green jacket, a horse-faced skirt of the same color, a bun, her skin was as white as jade, and her big eyes were as clean as agate, but she was faintly angry.
The most puzzling thing is that she actually covered her face with a red peach veil, and the wind blew the veil, which was really mysterious.
The maids were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and said tremblingly, "Sixth Miss...... You're here......"
This little girl is Mu Nianrou, the sixth lady of the Mu family, the only child left by the late Aunt Xu, and the most beloved child of Master Mu.
Originally, Mu Nianrou should follow the sisters of the Mu family to choose a single name Mu Rou, but Master Mu insisted on going his own way and insisted on adding a word to the middle of the name to show his thoughts about Aunt Xu.
From the name, you can see how high the status of this child is in Master Mu's heart.
However, Mu Nianrou was born with a defect, and there was a slight crack on her upper lip, although it was not obvious and did not affect her speech, but if you looked closely, she could still see that it was different from normal people.
