Chapter 248: Provincial Relatives
Concubine Mu finally smiled, "Tell me, what good news did you bring to your aunt?" ”
Mu Jinrou took her arm and entered the main house, and after the refreshments came up, she said with a smile: "Princess Ruyu took me to Kunning Palace just now, and the queen said that because I helped the princess in the hunting ground, she wanted to reward me." ”
"That's a good thing, what's the award?"
"I beg the queen to give my aunt a chance to go back to Anding Bofu to save her relatives."
This sentence made Concubine Mu frown, she pulled the broken hair on her forehead behind her ear, and sighed: "Rou girl has a heart." ”
Mu Jinrou was a little stunned, that's all?
Concubine Mu said again: "My aunt's father and mother are long gone, and my eldest brother has been sick and confused for many years, and now he is no longer alive, and it is no longer my aunt's home." What's there to see? ”
"Auntie......." Mu Jinrou could feel the sadness in Concubine Mu's words, imagine that a young and bright girl's family was sent to the palace at a very young age, tasted the pain of family death and separation, and also appreciated the indifference of relatives and even fell into the well, how could she still feel homesick at the beginning?
"Alas! If it weren't for the fact that Hongyu had been to Bofu, they might have forgotten that there was still my aunt, right? Even if I remembered it, I was scolding me for harming the inheritance of Bofu. Hehe, but how did they know that the first emperor had long planned to reduce the titles of various prefectures, and it was not easy to pass that hurdle safely. Concubine Mu said quietly: "Marrying a wife accidentally ruined three generations." ”
Mu Jinrou held her hand and said, "Auntie, if possible, you have to go back, our brother and sister need Auntie's help." Although there was a danger during this hunt, we also found Mrs. Mei who killed our mother, and with her, we could prove that my brother and I were my mother's biological children. It is the descendant of Bofu. It can also give the little lady and step-grandmother a good look! ”
"Really?" Concubine Mu raised her head with a bitter face, "Soft girl." It's all my aunt who was not good back then, I liked your mother for the first time twenty years ago, what an innocent child, your father was not ridiculous at that time, and he also liked your mother, I mentioned it to your grandfather, but I didn't expect ....... Alas, I wouldn't have said much if I had known this, so that your step-grandmother would have hated her for so many years. ”
Mu Jinrou asked, "Auntie." Why do stepgrandmothers hate? I know she doesn't like my mother. ”
"Before your father was betrothed to your mother, your grandmother wanted to marry her niece to your father. Oh, it's the Hu family now, I didn't expect her to marry your father. What a fate! "Concubine Mu seems to be very unkind to see this Hu family.
"Auntie. My father didn't like Hu back then, right? So after Hu Shi entered the door. Only then did he unite with the Sun family to kill his mother. Mu Jinrou thought of a lot of bloody plots, and it was not much different from the truth.
Concubine Mu said: "When the Hu family was still a girl, he almost achieved good things with your father, of course, your grandfather was still very sober at that time, and it was the little maid next to him who saved your father." But later, after your grandfather fell ill, your grandmother took the initiative to let your father marry a flat wife, what a joke, who married a flat wife if there were people with heads and faces in the capital? gave people tea and talk after dinner. ”
Mu Jinrou patted Concubine Mu's hand. comforted: "My aunt doesn't need to blame herself, it's all over." Now is the time for retribution. Let them spit out everything they take. ”
"It's a pity that the century-old inheritance of Bofu is over, I'm afraid it will end here."
Mu Jinrou didn't care about this, and only said: "Jinrou doesn't think it's important, what matters is the inheritance of the descendants and grandchildren, Mu Boyuan and they are not descendants in the first place, even if they get the Bofu?" I think my father will definitely handle it impartially after listening to Mrs. Mei's testimony. ”
"Don't be afraid! It's just that I don't handle it impartially and my aunt, but I'm also his aunt. "Concubine Mu finally made up her mind to save her relatives.
Mu Jinrou smiled: "However, the queen mother has not yet agreed, saying that she wants to ask His Majesty the Emperor before returning to me." ”
Concubine Mu said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty will agree." ”
The two of them talked a little more about the hunting grounds, and the time passed quickly in the laughter.
When it was about to leave, Mu Jinrou suddenly slapped her forehead, "Oh, aunt, I have one more important thing to say, which is about my brother." ”
"What?"
"Auntie, let me tell you, my brother has someone he likes...... Then she talked about Mu Bowen and Luo Erniang.
After saying this for nearly half an hour, Mu Jinrou drank a pot of tea, which was enough to finish their affairs, in fact, these were also what Mu Jinrou heard Bai Forsythia say.
Concubine Mu always smiled, "Okay, okay." It's my aunt who is not good, and if I send someone back to see it all these years, it won't be like this. ”
Mu Jinrou shook her head, "This really doesn't blame my aunt." ”
Yes, I really don't blame her, if she is in her situation, she may not be as good as Concubine Mu.
It was past noon after leaving the palace, and Mu Jinrou was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, so she directly asked He Sanqiu to park the car at the door of the foodie's house.
Seeing Qingzhu, Mu Jinrou shouted: "Hurry up, get me something to eat, I'm starving." ”
Qingzhu saw that Mu Jinrou's eyes lit up, and he didn't greet him, and responded directly: "Yes, county lord, you wait a while!" ”
In her own shop, Mu Jinrou was unceremonious, and went directly back to the small dining room in the lounge, shouting, "Come to the pot of hot tea." ”
Foodie Zhai has a new face, it is the daughter of Li Yi's mother Liu's mother's daughter, named Xiaocui, who is not yet nine years old this year. But I have learned all kinds of tea-making skills.
It was not the first time she had seen Mu Jinrou, and after saluting shyly, she brought a pot of black tea and said crisply, "The county lord, please use it." ”
Mu Jinrou smiled at her, and the little girl shyly ran behind the small bar again.
Soon, Qingzhu served all kinds of snacks and a roast chicken, and the fragrant taste made Mu Jinrou's fingers move. Tear off a chicken leg and eat it, and don't forget to remind the girls when eating, "You also go to find food, and eat whatever is in the store outside." ”
The two bamboos giggled and went to find something to eat.
After eating a chicken leg, Mu Jinrou applauded again and again, "It's delicious, it's made by Liu's mother, it's really a good craft." ”
Licking your fingers is not enough.
"It smells so good! Mother Liu, I want to eat it too. With a coquettish voice, the crescent moon came in in a hurry.
As soon as I came, I saw Mu Jinrou eating a mouth full of oil. sat opposite her very unceremoniously, and said with a smile: "Why are you embarrassed to eat alone, give me a chicken leg!" ”
As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed it.
Mu Jinrou ripped off the chicken leg first. Protecting the esophagus: "This is mine!" ”
Xinyue pursed her lips, glanced at Mu Jinrou's chest with bad intentions, and defiantly straightened the clothes on her chest, "I haven't seen you for a month, I haven't seen you for a long time, I really don't know what Commander Li likes about you?" What is better than the lord of this county? ”
"Huh!" Mu Jinrou fought back unceremoniously, "You're here to find fault, right?" I haven't seen you for a month, but the original words are slippery than before. It's as good as your cheeks. ”
"What? What does this have to do with cheekiness? Crescent Moon stared at her eyes wide, not understanding.
Mu Jinrou snorted: "Guess for yourself!" This is my foodie and I am not allowed to come in without my permission. ”
Then he nibbled on the chicken leg that he had snatched.
Xinyue said cheekily: "I came as soon as I learned that you were fine, please don't treat your friends like this." ”
"Friends?" Mu Jinrou sneered. "The lord of this county doesn't have a friend like you." In his heart, he scolded hatefully, "Dare to make fun of the county lord's chest, it's unforgivable!" ”
She was not satisfied with her small body, although she would be thinner when she grew up. But. It's still very unpleasant for anyone to be so underestimated. I want to try the recipe that Concubine Mu said again, so I'll try it tonight.
Xinyue laughed twice, she really didn't come here to grab food from her. Said flatteringly: "Mu Si, do you remember the IOU I wrote before?" ”
"What, can I pay back the money?"
Xinyue suddenly said with a bitter face: "No silver." Do you think we need any more IOUs based on our friendship, can you pay me back? ”
"Don't think!" Mu Jinrou vetoed it.
Crescent Moon stepped forward and pulled her sleeve to pretend to be pitiful, "Don't, we're so good." If only my eldest cousin knew. I'm miserable. The second cousin also scolded me for this, saying that if he couldn't get back the IOU, he would have to stay in Shangjing to pay off the debt. In a few days, the eldest cousin will return to the Turks. ”
Mu Jinrou frowned slightly, and said in her heart: "Could it be that Emperor Wen Jing agreed to send troops to aid the Turks?" ”
"What does this have to do with me? I'm poor. Mu Jinrou still didn't let go, God knows, Princess Ruyu's purpose is to let Ashinatu stay in the capital, she can't do anything bad.
After eating the chicken thighs in three times and dividing them by two, he got up with two plates and left, and did not forget to remind him when he came to the door, "Lord Xinyue, don't forget to pay the silver after drinking tea." I still have something to do, so I'll go first, I wish you all a safe journey! Missing! ”
When he came to the shop in front of him, he shouted, "Bamboo guys bring food, withdraw!" Let's eat in the car. Uncle Sanqiu also brought something to eat. ”
When the two girls heard this, they also picked up their basins and walked out.
He Sanqiu was older, and he smiled and greeted the two original secret guards who had become buddies in the store, and also took a few pastries and left.
The shop was a lot quieter all of a sudden, and the new moon was so angry that she paced her feet, "Damn! 10,000 taels, I can't raise it if I sell it. ”
After thinking about it again, she can't be detained here, and if she wants to sell it, she will sell her second cousin. Suddenly, Xinyue figured it out and shouted, "Mother Liu, I also want to eat roast chicken, bring me one too!" ”
Since she knew that this was the shop that Mu Jinrou and Princess Ruyu jointly opened, she had a big meal for almost three or two days, and Liu's mother was still Li Yi's nurse, although it was unlikely to be with him, but Xinyue still wanted to leave a good impression on Liu's mother, so she patronized the foodie even more.
As soon as Mu Jinrou got into the carriage, he instructed: "You listen to me, after the matter of Anding Bofu is settled, you must remind me to ask the little Turkic prince for debts." ”
Although Princess Ruyu didn't say anything about it in the palace, she knew that this matter had to be done by looking at Queen Song's attitude towards her, and she didn't want to drag others back.
"No, I'll write a letter to Li Yi first, and ask him to talk to Ashinatutong, and don't leave Shangjing until he pays off his debts."
Mu Jinrou was not polite at all when she used Li Yilai, she felt that being polite to her own people was the way to see the outside, and there was no need to use it in vain.
When she returned to the Dong Mansion, Mu Jinrou told Mu Bowen what Concubine Mu said, and Mu Bowen said: "In the past two days, I have sent people to keep an eye on the Bofu to save time and chaos. ”
"Hmm." Mu Jinrou didn't ask about Mu Jinsheng, she knew that this girl must be having a bad time.
Mrs. Dong's body got better day by day, and within a few days, she was as fast as before, and she took over what Mu Jinrou did a few days ago, and sold all the ill-intentioned maids and daughters-in-law in the house, and the people were combed again.
Mu Jinrou followed the whole process, but she learned a lot of housekeeping knowledge, and she even knew what to pay attention to when choosing slaves and maids, so as to save her from marrying into her in-law's family in the future.
For this reason, Mu Jinrou is very grateful, there is an old man in the family who has a treasure, if she only relies on her own exploration, how can she know these doorways, and she may have to take many detours. I have to say that after coming to ancient times for so long, she has also completely integrated into this society.
Concubine Mu was right, Emperor Wen Jing would definitely agree to her provincial relatives.
Early this morning, Mu Jinrou received a letter from Princess Ruyu, saying that Concubine Mu had returned to Andingbofu two days later.
"Great!" Mu Jinrou was very happy, Hu's good days were finally over, and she didn't know how Mu Jinshang would deal with it, she was really looking forward to it.
The Anding Bo Mansion had just received the Holy Decree, but no one in the Mansion was happy.
Mu Shouzheng felt very dazzling with the bright holy decree, and he still remembered that his little aunt who used to be very good to him, although she was his grandfather's old daughter, she was his father's favorite sister.
"Mother, madam, it's hard for you to take over." Although Mu Shouzheng was confused, he still had some opinions on this matter.
If His Majesty didn't want to see Concubine Mu today, he wouldn't have made such a clear decree to return to the palace to save his relatives, and if Concubine Mu still had any rights, he wouldn't have been ignorant of the affairs of the Bofu for so many years. made him think that Concubine Mu had died in the cold palace.
"Alas!" In the end, Mu Shouzheng could only sigh deeply, he had stayed in this home enough.
Sun and Hu have different views.
When Concubine Mu was in trouble, the Hu family had not yet married, although they knew what was going on back then, it did not prevent them from asking for benefits from Concubine Mu now.
Sun was trembling, she knew very well how Concubine Mu's daughter died back then, and there was a part of her strength in this. I thought that Concubine Mu was a cold palace for old death, but who knew that the salted fish turned over?
"You concubines and concubines have discussed this matter, and you must not let outsiders see the jokes of our uncle's house. Zhi'er, you can also help a little. She got up with Mu Jinpei's support and said expressionlessly.
"Yes!" The three of them respectfully responded, no matter how disagree, they couldn't play tricks on this, although the concubine was nothing, but it also represented the face of the royal family.
The concubine is indeed nothing, but the concubines left by the first emperor are either suffering from a bad disease or going to go early in depression, except for those who were reluctant to be buried by the first emperor. Only Concubine Mu is still alive and well, which is already very revealing.
Time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it is the day of saving relatives.
Emperor Wen Jing really gave Concubine Mu a lot of face, not only equipped her with a car, but also sent special guards, everything according to Concubine Shu's grade.
As soon as Concubine Mu's car drove out of the palace, it didn't take long for it to spread throughout the capital, and the defeated Andingbo Mansion was mentioned again all of a sudden, is Andingbo's Mansion going to be beautiful again? (To be continued.) )
