On this day, Mu Jinrou was quite nervous, on the one hand, she was worried that something would happen to her brother, which was the main altar, and if something happened, it would be a big deal. On the other hand, they are worried that they will be plotted by others.

Since early in the morning, relatives and friends have entered the house, and she has been doing the work of greeting Hu and others. Although the Hu family has now taken a back seat, she is still a serious Mrs. Andingbo.

The organizer of the Great Festival Mansion this time was Qian Guizhi, who was the most showy person, and repeatedly provoked the Hu family when she spoke, but the Hu family ignored her at all. After seeing his mother's family, he no longer paid attention to Qian Guizhi and went directly back to the guest room that had already been arranged.

This is the first time Mu Jinrou has seen Hu's family, what do those people say, the first impression is that they are unreliable and a group of speculators.

It was Hu's mother and brothers who came. Hu's mother, Xiao Sun's face, is not as good as that of the old lady Sun in the house, her face is thin and sour.

And Hu's brother, Hu Rongde, was born chubby and had an oily face. Hu's brother-in-law, Lu Shi, is also the daughter of a small county Cheng, and has a pair of triangular eyes like Xiaosun, and she looks mean.

When Mu Jinrou saw them, her heart was cold, it seemed that the Hu family was born better, but the bitter and mean look was like a mold. It's really not like a family doesn't enter the door.

On this occasion, a concubine is not qualified to stand in front of others. Yes, none of Mu Shouzheng's concubines came out to see anyone, and even Mu Boyuan's concubine Shui Yue was not seen for a few days.

At this moment, Hu Shi said: "Soft girl." Why don't you come and see your grandmother! ”

These words made Mu Jinrou frown directly, she didn't dare to ask for such a grandmother. He took a few steps up and bowed slightly. said: "Mrs. Hu is well! ”

"What's your name?" Xiao Sun was immediately annoyed, and his gaze at Mu Jinrou was a little unkind.

Mu Jinrou took a step back and said, "Old Lady Hu." My grandmother passed away more than ten years ago! ”

The Hu family also felt very shameless, and it was the honor of their whole family that she could marry to Andingbofu. In front of my brother and mother, I was slapped in the face by a little girl who had been suppressed, and I was really angry.

She pointed at Mu Jinrou's nose and scolded: "A few years ago, you girl was quite polite, but I didn't expect to become so ignorant of etiquette and filial piety after being picked up by the Dong family." ”

The voice of this was not small, and many people heard it.

In ancient times. Mrs. and Mrs. can't just call each other. Only the wives of official families with status can be called "Mrs.", while ordinary people are called "Mrs.".

Xiao Sun's marriage is just a small county man, and in front of this kind of high-ranking officials and wives everywhere, he can naturally only be called "wife".

Qian Guizhi also arrived here after picking up the important guests. Seeing this, she wanted to step forward and say a few words, after all, nothing could happen on the day of the big festival. But Mu Jinpei stopped him, and whispered: "Mother, go to accompany the important guests first." This is the big house, and we have nothing to do with it! ”

So the people in the second room went directly to other cubicles with some identities.

Xiao Sun snorted coldly: "Daughter." This is what you call the little maid? It's really uneducated. ”

Look at Mu Jinrong again. The girl seemed to have been devastated by the poisoning, and apart from her pale face, almost no skin was exposed. She respectfully gave Xiao Sun a big salute and called her grandmother.

Mu Jinshang said: "Grandmother, don't be angry, the identity of my fourth sister is different from mine." Let's go to Jinlin Garden with Xiang'er first. ”

"Humph!" Hu snorted coldly, turned around and left with people again.

There were only a few Mu Jinrou left in the hall, and the important guests were also here, so there was no need for the host to come to greet them. She also took Hongyu directly to Sun's Yixin Courtyard.

Yixinyuan is very quiet, and Sun is an old lady. On this occasion, few people came to visit her except for her contemporaries.

Mu Jinrou met Sun smoothly, her left and right hand Wu Mama was standing beside her, thinking about Fang Er's amusement.

After meeting the ceremony slightly, Mu Jinrou got straight to the point and said, "Grandmother, do you still remember Concubine Mu?" ”

With a "bang", the tea bowl in Sun's hand fell to the ground.

Mu Jinrou was stunned, what kind of situation is this, it was not easy to get out of the right and wrong in front of her temporarily, is there anything else in this?

Before Sun came to his senses, Hongyu stepped forward, raised her head to look at Sun, and said, "Stepwife, I haven't seen you for many years, but your body is still so healthy." ”

"You, you're ......." Sun also stood up and looked at Hongyu with an expression of disbelief on his face, "Hongyu? ”

Hongyu smiled: "The steplady has a good memory, and the slave is Hongyu." On the order of the concubine, I put incense on the pillar for the old uncle, and ask the lady to arrange it. ”

Sun nodded, "Oh, good! Ji Mian looked at Mu Jinrou and asked, "Have you seen Concubine Mu, she, is she okay?" ”

Mu Jinrou heard the weakness in her heart, but she still replied truthfully, "My aunt is doing well in the palace, but she misses her mother's family, and she has called Jinrou into the palace twice to speak." ”

When Sun heard this, his mind began to turn again, could it be that Concubine Mu was not beaten into the cold palace, and she still had the right to summon people into the palace? Then don't you have a chance for your own Jinpei.

"That's right." Sun immediately changed his tone and sighed softly: "Our sister-in-law hasn't seen her for many years." Hongyu, after they come back, you can follow Mama Wu to the place where you are doing things in front and put a few pillars of incense. If the old uncle knew that the concubine was doing well, he would be very pleased. ”

Saying that, he instructed Mama Wu: "You will remember to arrange it later, and there must be no mistakes." Ruby represents the concubine! ”

"Yes! The slave understands. Mama Wu immediately replied respectfully, turned around and went elsewhere.

The Sun family is very lonely here, and if she wants to win over the powerful Concubine Mu, she can't be cold to Mu Jinrou, so she stepped forward with a smile and took her hand and said, "Rou girl, since you went to the Dong Mansion, grandmother has been thinking about it every day, I don't know if you are doing well over there." ”

Mu Jinrou was impressed by the Sun family again in her heart, she was obviously annoying, but she could still put on such a loving face, and it was difficult for her.

"Thank you grandmother for your concern." Mu Jinrou also smiled and said, "My aunt is very good to me. It's much better than when I was in Eihwain. ”

Sun sighed again, "Alas, in a few days, I will let your father rebuild Ronghua Temple." After all, this is the yard where your mother lived. ”

Mu Jinrou frowned, it turned out that the Sun family had always known the true identity of himself and his brother.

She didn't have the heart to shirk with her, so she casually dealt with two sentences to fool the past.

At this time, a little girl came to report, "Old lady, uncle, they are back." ”

"Oh? It seems that the festival over there is going well. Sun smiled and said: "Mama Wu, you can bring the four girls over, they are indispensable for the memorial over there." ”

"Yes!" Mama Wu, who had just come back from outside, was sent out again.

Mu Jinrou walked out of Yixin Courtyard. He took a deep breath, feeling that the sky in this Bofu was also dark and very depressing. Everyone here is counting life. Talking to them, tired and panicked!

Hongyu and Mu Jinrou deliberately walked behind, Hongyu saw that she was not in good spirits, so she whispered: "Isn't the fourth girl shaken because of Sun's words?" ”

Mu Jinrou shook her head. "Nope. I just feel chilling. ”

"Humph!" Hongyu sneered, "The concubine was already chilled many years ago. When the concubine had an accident, she risked her death to bring a letter out, and the person also said that it had been sent to the hands of the housekeeper. But the concubine still couldn't wait for the old uncle's rescue, so she suffered for many years before she came out again, and almost entered the cold palace. ”

"Could it be ......?" Mu Jinrou thought of the Sun family, at that time, it should have been the Sun family presiding over the feed, and the big housekeeper at that time must have also sent the letter to the Sun family.

Ruby nodded, "That's it." ”

Mu Jinrou said softly: "I understand." I don't know if my brother is okay? ”

Ruby had to pat her hand for comfort. She can't help with that.

In the front yard, the men of Andingbo's Mansion who went to Qingliangguan and the cemetery to worship have returned. But the expressions on everyone's faces were not relaxed. It was as if something had happened in the middle of the process.

Mu Jinrou came to the place where the altar was held up in the front yard, and she had already seen the men in plain clothes saluting.

The ladies in the house have also been gathered, and after the children and grandchildren have saluted, the red jade also represents the incense of Concubine Mu first. Then the relatives and friends in the house stepped forward to offer incense, which was a very cumbersome process.

At noon, the children and grandchildren took off their filial piety clothes and put on their regular clothes, and passed the changed filial piety clothes on the fire, and then returned to the door and threw them from the wall to the courtyard, so as to "serve the blessings".

The white paper couplet posted on the gate in the morning was replaced with a red paper couplet, and the suit was officially removed. After that, the ladies also went back to their rooms to change into their regular clothes and came out again to accompany their relatives and friends to have a meal.

Mu Jinrou's regular clothes are also simple, just a willow green jacket skirt with excellent workmanship and exquisite embroidery. She saw Mu Bowen with a relaxed face just now, and she was relieved that her brother was really well prepared.

After changing into regular clothes, Mu Jinrou didn't want to participate in the so-called seat over there at all, but someone didn't let her go. Before I had time to take a sip of tea, a little girl came to pass the word.

"Four girls, Madame asked the slave maid to take the four girls to the front hall."

Mu Jinrou pursed her lips, poured down the tea in her hand, got up and said, "Got it." You go down first, and I'll go in a moment. ”

The little girl was very embarrassed and said, "Madame said that she wanted the slave maid to take the four girls to the front hall herself." ”

Mu Jinrou really had no choice but to go with her.

Soon back to the front room, which is a large meeting room, perfect for banquets. Except for the noon of the service day, there is a memorial service, and the afternoon is a normal gathering of relatives and friends.

If there are many restrictions on filial piety in the afternoon today, then these will not exist in the afternoon, and all kinds of things that cannot be discussed in the filial piety period can also be said at this time, such as marriage. This is the removal ceremony of the Great Xia Dynasty.

As the hostess of the mansion, although Hu is not the host of this festival, she still has to bring her three daughters to chat with every guest who comes here to have a few polite words.

Mu Jinrou followed behind Mu Jinrong and didn't say a word, she couldn't take the maid at this time. She always felt a little uneasy.

Mu Jinrong, who was originally very good at laughing and showing himself, was dressed more conservatively, and the clothes were just a little brighter than the previous plain clothes. She was now wearing a peach-colored gown, nothing new, and the dress that was exposed was moon-white, with long sleeves, and her hands were barely visible, but her face was still pale, as if she had rubbed a lot of powder.

Mu Jinrou sighed lightly, this girl was really hit, I am afraid that the original poison has not yet recovered.

Occasionally, when no one was around, Mu Jinrong would smile at Mu Jinrou, but the smile was too subtle for Mu Jinrou to understand the meaning.

Soon, Hu led them to the last table where the noble lady was, which was accompanied by Hu's mother, Xiao Sun.

As soon as you enter the cubicle, the aroma is fragrant, which shows that this place is different.

Mu Jinrou saw a familiar face, Mrs. Lin'anhou, who now enjoyed the flattery of others like a queen. Looking at the smug Hu family again, Mu Jinrou felt that something was wrong.

Sure enough, Xiao Sun smiled sinisterly when he saw Mu Jinrou come in.

And Mrs. Lin'anhou didn't intend to let her go, and said in a strange tone: "Oh, isn't this the fourth girl who is favored by Concubine Mu?" I thought you wouldn't take us seriously if you had a backer. ”

The one who answered the phone was another woman Mu Jinrou was unfamiliar with, this person was dressed differently from everyone else, although the material looked good, it was a bit like a standard uniform.

She said: "It turned out that there was Concubine Mu sitting on the mountain, so I had to put Concubine De in my eyes." It's not that I said, your upbringing in the Anding Bofu is too disagreeable, and you actually let a little concubine step on the head of the concubine and climb up, even the outsider Concubine De Niangniang can't stand it! ”

Mu Jinrou was stunned, who is this person? It's really not inferior and unashamed.

At this time, Mu Jinsheng, who had been low-key for a few days, finally spoke, she came to the woman, bowed deeply to her and said, "Aunt Wan'er, when did you come." Is Concubine De good? ”

Concubine De? Mu Jinrou suddenly understood that it turned out to be Concubine De's person, no wonder she was so hostile to herself. She didn't pay any attention to what they were saying, but looked around for a way out.

It wasn't until she heard Hu's screams that Mu Jinrou came back to her senses and watched their performance well.

Hu Shi happily came to Wan'er's side, holding her hand and smiling very happily, "What Aunt Wan'er said is true?" Concubine De really wants to make our family concubine the side concubine of King Qin? ”

The voice was so loud that Mu Jinrou wanted to cover her ears, but she knew that it was Hu Shi's intention, and she wanted the other guests to know about it.

How could Wan'er not know her careful thoughts after being in the palace for many years, but she was not annoyed, she just quietly withdrew her hand, and instead pulled Mu Jinsheng and asked, "Miss Mu, why didn't you wear the set of clothes that Concubine De gave you." ”

Mu Jinshang smiled: "It's not time yet." ”

Today, Mu Jinshang wore a high-waisted skirt, the color is not bright, but it is the most eye-catching among the three, with moon white on the upper body and lilac color on the lower body, which looks stable and playful with makeup.

On the other hand, looking at Mu Jinrong in a pink gown, her clothes look old-fashioned, and Mu Jinrou, who is wearing a willow green jacket skirt, is too childish.

Wan'er said: "Indeed, when Miss Mu officially arrives, Concubine De will send someone here, so wear that dress then." As she spoke, she looked at Mu Jinrou, and took out two beautifully packaged gouache boxes from her sleeve pocket, and handed them to Mu Jinsheng with peonies painted in a porcelain bottle, "This is Miss Mu's." ”

Stuffed another one with an orchid painting to Mu Jinrou, "This is what Concubine De rewarded you, of course, for the sake of Concubine Mu's face." Let's try it, it's built-in! ”

Mu Jinshang smiled, she took the lead in opening the gouache box, wiped a little and wiped it on her face, sure enough, it was a good gouache, and the taste was fragrant and charming.

Everyone complimented again, and then everyone looked at Mu Jinrou in unison. (To be continued.) )
