Chapter 5 Calculations
Mrs. Mu knows how important connections are, so asking his son to marry Mu Yan according to the agreement is something that can never be done.
Pinching her fingers for a long time, she finally made up her mind, and asked Mother Sun in a cold light and whispered: "Do you still have a prescription for the tranquilizer that Aunt Xu prepared a few years ago?" β
Mother Sun's expression tightened, her fingers pinched the cuffs, and even her fingertips were dripping with beads of sweat, and she said in a difficult voice: "Mrs. is going to use that tranquilizer to deal with Mu Yan?" β
Mrs. Mu frowned, but she quickly calmed down, and said in a deep voice: "It's not to deal with her, I just don't want my Yang'er to be ruined in her hands, I have my own plans for Yang'er's marriage." After a pause, he said, "Besides, I don't want her life......
Mother Sun said: "The slave understands, do you want to find an excuse to drive her away?" β
Mrs. Mu sighed, stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "After all, after she arrived at our house, I did support several children, whether it was her role in recruiting children or not, I missed her in my heart." β
"It's just gratitude and gratitude, but it can't be compared with my Yang'er's future......"
Grandma Sun nodded and said, "You're right, the future of the eldest young master is the most important." β
Mrs. Mu half-squinted her eyes and took a deep breath again, and said, "When she is driven away, I will also make amends to her family, she has been a Mu family for so many years, and she can't let her suffer." β
Mother Sun nodded and said in a deep voice, "That...... Do you want the slave to prepare the medicine stone? β
Mrs. Mu snorted, rubbed her temples and said, "From tomorrow onwards, let Mother Qin boil soup and send her a soup every day, just say it's a tonic." β
Mother Sun answered, and Fang went quietly.

At night, there is peace in the bamboo fungus garden.
Since the confrontation between Mu Yan and Qin's mother, this courtyard has been much quieter.
Mu Yan gave the four second-class maids time to think about it, and he didn't call them all day, only asking Peach and Green to do everything.
Mother Qin was holding her breath in her heart, and naturally she didn't bother to serve Mu Yan.
Mu Yan knew that she was not convinced, and he didn't need her to serve.
The autumn wind was fierce, Mu Yan sat under the lamp and delicately embroidered a water hibiscus, and the peach and green were waiting on one side for the embroidery thread.
Mu Qing is very picky, if there is a trace of imperfection in the embroidery stitches given to her by Mu Yan, she will be furious.
Mu Yan didn't want to have unnecessary disputes with her, so every time he took over the embroidery work, he would embroider with great care.
The stitches of the hibiscus embroidery on the white silk are uniform, and the color matching is fresh and refined, which is the best at a glance.
The lights in the room were a little dim, and Peach was afraid of hurting Mu Yan's eyes, so she quickly got up to add lamp oil.
However, picking up the oil gourd, Peach frowned.
Before the end of the month, the lamp oil in this oil gourd is almost clean.
Pink sighed softly.
Mu Yan glanced up at her, understood in his heart, and said lightly: "If it's not enough, it's not enough, Ming'er can find some leftover candle heads, and she can survive for a while." β
Peach frowned and said: "But this month has only been more than ten days, and it stands to reason that this gourd lamp oil will never run out." β
Mu Yan hooked his lips and sneered, pinched the needle and thread and said: "This kind of thing is not once or twice in my bamboo fungus courtyard, people are soft and bullied, and they are even more worried about those shameless chickens and dogs. β
Lu Wu took refuge in Mu Yan, he didn't dare to say more, but now when he heard Mu Yan say these words, he was angry in his heart, frowned and hesitated: "The slave knows...... Know who stole the lamp oil. β
Who did Peach hurriedly ask? β
Lu Wu glanced at Mu Yan and saw that Mu Yan did not stop her, so she lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "When I was working that day, I saw Xia Xiang steal a gourd of lamp oil, and then hide it in her sleeve. β
Peach was anxious and asked, "Then why didn't you sue Miss SΓΉ earlier?" β
Lu Wu looked ashamed, got up and knelt on the ground, and blamed herself: "Girl, the slave should have told you about these things earlier, but ...... But Na Xia Xiang's aunt is the person next to the third wife......"
Mu Yan shook his head, looked at Lu Wu and said quietly: "No wonder you, you are just eating in this mansion and begging for a living, you are alone, how can you afford to offend these people?" She raised her arms and said, "I don't blame you, you get up." β
Lu Wu was even more ashamed in her heart, only kowtowed heavily to the ground, and after kowtowing three heads, she got up, and said with red eyes: "From now on, if the slave and maid encounter this matter again, the slave and maid will definitely tell you as soon as possible." β
Mu Yan exhaled heavily, raised his eyes to look at the green and peach, and said word by word: "Remember, in this mansion, no matter what you encounter, you must first protect yourself, and only by protecting yourself can you protect me." β
The two nodded heavily.
Nothing was said all night.
When he got up early the next day, Mu Yan still didn't call Qin's mother, and all the work of dressing up and dressing up was done by Peach and Green.
Mother Qin didn't bother to move when she didn't call, pinching her sleeves and standing proudly in the yard basking in the sun.
Xia Xiang and Qiu Xiang are like this, the four of them stand together to bask in the sun and Kan Dashan, but they don't go in to serve Mu Yan.
Mu Yan looked at them coldly, and only let Peach and Luwu not pay attention to them.
As for the lamp oil, Mu Yan didn't say a word.
After dressing up, Mu Yan looked at the golden morning light spread on the window outside the window, and asked, "I haven't been to say hello to the old lady for five or six days, right?" β
Since she was sick, Mrs. Mu canceled her morning and dusk provinces, and only let her recuperate with peace of mind.
Today, she should also go to Mrs. Mu's to answer the bill.
Peach said: "It's been six days." β
"Hmm."
Mu Yan got up slowly, reached out and pinched a plain silver bead flower on his sideburns, and said lightly: "Follow me to De'an Yuan, I'll go to the old lady to say goodbye." β
"But your body?" Peach's face was full of worry.
Mu Yan shook his head: "It's okay, let's go." β
Peach and Green glanced at each other, so they had to accompany Mu Yan to De'an Garden.
Out of the room, Qin's mother stepped forward with a smile and said, "Where is the girl?" β
Mu Yan glanced at her obliquely and dropped three words: "De'an Yuan." β
Mother Qin's eyes rolled and she hurriedly followed.
She is the housekeeper mother of this room, Mu Yan is going to greet the old lady, how can she be without her company. Should she do a play or do a play, she doesn't want to leave a bad impression in front of the old lady.
Besides, she didn't know what Mu Yan would say in front of Mrs. Mu, in case the princess took advantage of her absence to sue her, wouldn't it be a dumb loss?
When Mu Yan saw her follow, he felt contempt in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Mom is also going to ask the old lady to say goodbye?" β
Mother Qin flattened her mouth and said reluctantly: "I always have to accompany the girl." β
Mu Yan snorted coldly in his heart, and said politely: "In this way, there will be Mother Lao." β
Mother Qin pursed her lips and did not speak again.
The group walked all the way down the verandah, the garden, to the south courtyard.
The layout of the courtyard in the south is even more exquisite, there is a bamboo garden around, there are more flowers in the four seasons, and a pool of living water is also introduced, the pool water is green, there are a few residual lotus floating on it, and it looks quite meaningful from afar.
