Chapter 40: Third Sister

Mu Jinrou was a little scared, what she was afraid of was not the tablets in the room, but the living people who opened the door. If Hu or Mu Jinshang want their own lives, what should they do?

"Hairpin, hairpin!" Mu Jinrou took off the hairpin from her head as a hidden weapon, threw the tablecloth on the ground under the offering table, and asked loudly, "Who?" ”

"Click!" The lock on the outside door was still ringing, but it hadn't been opened.

Mu Jinrou instantly thought of the little black house when she first arrived in this world, couldn't it be that those bad guys are here again? No, in the Qin Palace, didn't those bad guys die one and escape? The one who escaped must have been caught as well.

"Who are you? Came to bring me food? Mu Jinrou asked again.

As soon as she finished speaking, the door finally opened. The heavy door creaked, and a man stood in the doorway with a candle, and the light stretched the man's reflection very long.

Mu Jinrou's heart was pounding, she held the hairpin with both hands, and asked again, "Who is it?" ”

"Ahem! I. ”

The man closed the door and saw by the light that she was carrying a small basket in her hand.

Mu Jinrou breathed a long sigh of relief and sat on the ground at once, "Third sister is you, I'm scared to death!" ”

Isn't it? She thought it was a scoundrel.

Mu Jinpei was not afraid of the gloomy ancestral hall, so he came to her, put the candlestick on the ground, and said, "Eat, didn't you say you were hungry just now?" ”

Mu Jinrou looked at Mu Jinpei, pulled the bamboo basket and whispered, "Why is the third sister so good to me?" ”

Mu Jinpei smiled: "Eat, don't ask why, my mother asked me to do this." There's a reason for that. ”

"Oh." Mu Jinrou saw that there were vegetables and soup in the bamboo basket, as well as two small steamed buns, her stomach rumbled again, and she said casually: "It's not poisonous, right?" ”

Mu Jinpei frowned slightly, and asked rhetorically, "You've never asked like this before, don't you still eat deliciously." ”

"Huh!" Mu Jinrou smirked twice and said, "Thank you, third sister, I ate it." If you have anything to say, I'll ask after I'm done. ”

She knows very well that she will not be rude to her, and Mu Jinpei will not give her something to eat for no reason. However, in the memory of the original body, there were two times when he ate the meal given by Mu Jinpei, but they were all vague.

Mu Jinpei smiled: "You are really different from before, just do it." In the past, you twisted and said that you can't stand the big sister, if you want me to say, the most sorry for you is the big sister, you are stupid! ”

Mu Jinrou ate the delicious meal and slurred her words: "Thank you for the reminder from the third sister, I understand." ”

Seeing that she was full of food and drink, Mu Jinpei said, "Tell me about what happened today." ”

Mu Jinrou modified some of what happened today and told Mu Jinpei to listen, such as meeting Mu Bowen in the plum garden but not Xia Houyan and Li Yi, and omitting the part of the golden hairpin with medicine.

After talking for nearly half an hour, no one outside noticed that there was one more person in the ancestral hall.

After listening to this, Mu Jinpei whispered: "Let me tell you the truth, the eldest sister wants to be the princess of Qin, and this lotus banquet is an opportunity for the king of Qin to remember her." Whether you have something to do or not, she will be remembered by King Qin. ”

Mu Jinrou asked rhetorically: "So, the reason why they took me to enjoy the lotus is to harm me?" ”

Mu Jinpei smiled slightly, "You're not stupid." ”

"But what about the third sister? What is the purpose of going to enjoy the lotus. ”

Mu Jinpei got up and said, "Don't ask about this." It's important to me today, say, what more do you want? ”

Mu Jinrou didn't say a reason for a long time, what else did she want? I want a lot, but what I want most should be money, right? No, it should be someone who can suppress the Hu family.

After thinking about this, he asked, "Third sister, is my grandmother's body okay?" ”

Mu Jinpei pursed her lips and said, "What are you asking for?" My aunt rarely let us see my grandmother, but we could also know that she was not doing well and that she was sick. ”

Mu Jinrou made up her mind and said, "I want to meet my grandmother, please ask the third sister to think of a way." If her old man is in good health, our uncle will not be looked down upon. ”

Mu Jinpei sighed: "Who said it wasn't! Grandmother really miscalculated back then, what kind of family is the Hu family? A broken settlement. Hu's father is just a small person, isn't the daughter he raised short-sighted? Speaking of this, he looked at Mu Jinrou, "Is there a way for the fourth sister to make her grandmother's body better?" ”

Mu Jinrou knew very well that she was reluctant to let the child catch the wolf, so she said bluntly: "I saw a medical book from my biological mother, which recorded a few home remedies, and I think there should be one suitable for my grandmother." ”

"Home remedies?" Mu Jinpei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is that medical book now?" ”

"Hehe, this ......." Mu Jinrou smirked and said, "When I was cleaned by the illiterate Mama Li, I was mixed with other straws and burned, and after I rescued it, there was only a palm-sized piece of paper left, and I threw the piece of paper into the stove, but fortunately, I wrote down two or three recipes." ”

"Really?" Mu Jinpei was skeptical, took the empty basket and said, "In this way, I'll go back and discuss it with my mother, it's really not impossible to let my father out." Alas, Uncle is really getting more and more unpleasant these days, it's not me as a niece who talks about him. My father's colleagues talked about Andingbo as a ...... Well, what are you talking about with this? I'm leaving! If you can't stand it, you'll pretend to be sick. ”

After Mu Jinpei left, the lock on the door was locked again, and even the lampstand was taken away. The ancestral hall was once again plunged into darkness.

She rubbed the tablecloth on the floor again, and after eating and drinking, she wanted to sleep until dawn. But the door rang again, and when I looked up at the sky outside the window, it was about ten o'clock in the middle of the night. It's already very late in ancient times, so who will it be this time?

After the door opened, the man whispered, "Don't be afraid, Rou'er, it's my brother." ”

"Whew!" Mu Jinrou was still frightened by him, "Brother, why are you here?" ”

Mu Bowen took out the fire fold and lit the candle and said, "I'll bring you food." ”

Another bamboo basket, which contained Mu Jinrou's favorite roast chicken, the taste made her want to eat another chicken leg when she was full.

Mu Jinrou thought of it, tore off a chicken leg and said, "Thank you, brother, I deserve to be my sister's own brother, I know that my sister likes to eat this." The third sister didn't do it, she only brought some food and steamed buns. ”

Mu Bowen paused, "Rou'er, what did you say?" Has Jinpei been here? She asked you something, you won't tell you everything, will you? ”

"Huh?" Mu Jinrou's action of gnawing on the chicken leg froze, "No, can't you?" ”

Mu Bowen sighed, touched her hair with his hand, and made a mess of the fine double bun. However, he was in a much better mood because of this, and he felt close to his sister again.

"Come, listen carefully, and let my brother explain whether it is okay or not." Under Mu Jinrou's resistance, Mu Bowen withdrew his claws and smiled.
