Mu Yan was actually very puzzled in her heart, why did the old lady suddenly leave her by her side to copy scriptures?

Everyone in the house knows that the old lady believes in Buddhism the most, and it is not her turn to copy such a "good thing" as copying scriptures and books, and the girls in all rooms are staring at this place and waiting.

Everyone hopes that when they copy scriptures, they can have a good relationship with Mrs. Mu, and they can get the guidance of the old lady, and when they get married in the future, maybe they can also have bargaining chips to marry a good family.

Mu Yan didn't sleep all night last night, thinking about this problem.

"What? Don't want to? The old lady took a sip of hot tea and asked tepidly.

Mu Yan steadied himself, and said with a respectful face: "How could Yan'er be unwilling, Mrs. Xie raised ......"

The corners of Old Madam Mu's mouth grinned slightly, the smile lines on the corners of her mouth rippled like water, and then she raised her chin again, half-squinted her eyes and said lightly: "Do you know why I raised you?" ”

These words were red by Mrs. Mu||It's really hurtful to ask nakedly.

Mu Yan tried not to make himself angry, let alone humble, lowered his voice, and muttered: "I don't know what I said, please ask the old lady to make it clear." ”

"Okay, then I'll make it clear." Old Lady Mu slowly brushed the flying crane embroidered with silver thread on the cuffs, and said, "Fourteen years ago, we brought you from the Jiang family, and when Yang'er was born the next year, there was a marriage contract between the two of you. ”

Mu Yan listened quietly.

The old lady's fingertips gently twisted the silver thread, "You have lived in this mansion for fourteen years, you should know what the status of our Mu family is now in the court and the locality, and Yang'er is the eldest grandson of our Mu family, if there is no marriage between you, you should know that the woman he will marry in the future must also be the lady of the Zhong Ding family." ”

At this point, Mu Yan's heart was clear.

She pursed her lips lightly and said in a low voice: "Yan'er knows ......"

"You know?" The corner of Mrs. Mu's eyes swept over her, and she sighed softly for a long time: "Actually, I don't hide it from you, countless times, I have been thinking, if our Mu family treats the covenant of the year as if it never happened, and raises you as a daughter, and finds a suitable family to marry in the future, maybe ...... Would it be better? Will it? ”

Mu Yan's eyebrows sank, and he pursed his lips and said, "Yan'er obeys the old lady's arrangement, it is indeed Yan'er...... Not worthy of ......"

When he said this, Mu Yan had a trace of expectation in his heart.

She actually hoped that the old lady could really cancel this marriage contract as she said, without the marriage contract, she would have no shackles, and her life without shackles might be better.

Would it be better?

Mu Yan's heart was a little confused again......

Old Lady Mu's gaze stayed on her for a long time, and she sighed lightly and replied in a low voice, "You even know that you are not worthy of ......" There was a moment of pause, her eyebrows were certain, and she raised her voice again, "That's it, the matter has come to this, and our Mu family will not do such a treacherous thing, after all, ...... We can't afford to lose that face. ”

"Don't worry, our Mu family will still abide by the marriage contract."

Hearing this, the disappointment in Mu Yan's heart slowly spread, and at the same time, he felt very mocking.

There are so many people up and down the Mu family, how many of them can afford her? How many are willing for her to marry Mu Chaoyang?

Everyone is disgusted with her background, no money and no rights, more ordinary than a drop of water.

But because of this ridiculous face, he refused to let her go, let alone let her live a good life.

Just left her with such hypocrisy and tortured her.

Mu Yan secretly clenched his fists, and his heart was cold.

Old Lady Mu said with a straight face: "It's right that the position of the eldest granddaughter-in-law is yours, but how should you be the eldest granddaughter-in-law?" How do you get others to respect you? ”

Mu Yan lowered his eyelids and didn't know what to say, and his heart seemed to have been dug out of a hole.

Seeing that she was silent, Mrs. Mu shook her head silently, raised her hand and said: "That's it, it's useless to say more, in short, look at your creation, if you get through it, you will be rich and noble, and you can't get through it......"

The words came to an abrupt end.

If you can't get through it, you will experience a purgatory-like life just like in your previous life, and finally die in pain......

Mu Yan's five fingers sank into his palm again.

The mistakes of her previous life, no matter what, she didn't want to continue.

At this time, there was a grandmother outside the door who whispered, "Miss Six is here." ”

Old Madam Mu found a comfortable position to sit down again, and said slowly, "Let her in." ”

Mu Yan's mind moved slightly, why did Mu Nianrou come? Could it be that she is also here to copy scriptures?

That's weird.

While thinking about this, Mu Yan got up to greet him and shouted, "Sixth Miss." ”

Mu Nianrou wore a veil and just glanced at her lightly, and then avoided her lightly and saluted the old lady.

Mu Yan felt a little embarrassed in her heart, she was so thick-skinned that she would have lived a lifetime, otherwise she would be embarrassed and didn't know how to step down.

The old lady looked indifferent and asked, "Have you finished breakfast?" ”

Mu Nianrou didn't answer a word, but nodded very detachedly.

Although Mrs. Mu was angry in her heart, she didn't dare to have a seizure, after all, Mu Nianrou was different from other girls, one was disabled, and the other was her son's favorite child.

Suppressing the many dissatisfaction in her heart, the old lady looked at Mu Yan and Mu Nianrou and said: "The nineteenth of next month is the day of Master Guanyin's ordination, and I plan to go to Fahua Temple to worship two volumes of the Diamond Sutra for peace in the house, and this scripture copying will be handed over to the two of you." His eyes paused on the two of them, and then he said: "From now on, the two of you will come to me at three o'clock every hour, and then go back at two o'clock, and you will have dinner with me at noon." ”

Old Madam Mu's tone was unquestionable.

For Mu Yan, it is better to stay here and copy the scriptures than to look at the faces of evil slaves such as Mother Qin, anyway, it is almost the same.

She was worried that Mu Nianrou would not be willing, after all, her personality was too cold.

However, Mu Nianrou didn't say anything, and after a while, they followed Mrs. Mu to the small Buddha hall together.

Along the way, Mu Yan wanted to talk to Mu Nianrou several times, but Mu Nianrou seemed to be deliberately distancing herself from her.

With such an obvious estrangement, she didn't want to deliberately approach it, so she had to keep her due distance.

The small Buddha hall is next to the old lady's bedroom, a piece of green bamboo is planted around, and a pool of living water is also introduced, and a large area of five-colored koi is raised.

The Buddha hall is lit with sandalwood incense, smoky, yellow curtains are gathered in the mist, and there is a statue of Guanyin sitting on the lotus.

After cleaning their hands, the three of them kowtowed.

Mu Yan pious three bows.

After getting up, Mrs. Mu pointed to the red case under the window and said, "The light is the best here, so you two will copy the scriptures here in the future." ”

At the same time, he said to Hu's mother with a gloomy face: "The Buddha Hall is a pure place, and idle people are not allowed to enter the ......."

Mu Yan listens to the elegance of the sound, and no idle people are allowed to come in, to put it bluntly, they don't let those maids come in to serve.

Mother Hu nodded knowingly, turned around and ordered the maids and women who followed up to go out, and ordered: "Let's all go back, and come back to serve at noon." ”

Peach and Green were at a loss, and Qin's mother looked proud.

Instead, Mu Yan gave them a calm look and asked them to go back.

Mu Nianrou also didn't say anything, just sat quietly under the window and began to pick up a pen and copy the book.

Mu Yan also followed and sat opposite Mu Nianrou.

Seeing this, Mrs. Mu left satisfied.
