Chapter 285: Relatives

Arrived at the gate of the palace.

Huangfu watched Mu Changyuan enter the palace alone surrounded by the guards of the Beijing Defense Battalion, but she was politely stopped, according to the eunuch who passed the letter, the queen mother was sad, the phoenix body was not safe, and she didn't want to see anyone.

The Huangfu clan had no choice but to return in a huff.

Heaven has no siblings.

What's more, there is a handkerchief hand that is distinguished from the inferior.

Whether it is the crime of dereliction of duty or escaping, this matter involves the safety of the emperor, it is a first-class crime, she should not have expected Mu Changyuan to be good in it.

The Yongding Marquis Mansion was bleak.

Anxiously waiting for news from the palace.

Later, two carriages stopped at the Yongding Marquis Mansion one after another.

Mu Yu and Mu Yao received a letter from the Huangfu family and rushed back non-stop.

Also coming with Tong Jingyi.

As soon as the three of them got out of the carriage, they went straight to Muying Hall with anxious faces.

Huangfu just sent a letter to the sisters, saying that they must go home, but they didn't say anything, and the sisters were naturally nervous, because Mu Yu was already pregnant, and the Tong family couldn't rest assured, so they let Tong Jingyi follow.

Huangfu took the hands of the sisters, couldn't help but wet his eyes, roughly said about Mu Changyuan, and said with a solemn face: "It's okay that the emperor is okay this time, if there is anything, your father is afraid that he will not be able to get rid of it, and there is no one in the court who can speak, right now, I can only wait for Erlang to come back." ”

Mu Yao just sighed.

Her mother-in-law's family was not a powerful one in the first place, and her husband was sent to Yuzhou on an errand a few years ago, and she couldn't help her father at all.

"I heard that a few days ago, Erlang was trapped near Chongyang City by heavy snow. Now that the snow has long stopped, it must be time to go to the state. Mu Yu naturally heard about the war on the side of Bingzhou. also knew that Mu Yunting went to Bingzhou to escort military rations and was trapped in Chongyang City. If she hadn't been pregnant, she would have rushed to Chongyang to see him.

"Even if the prince arrives in Bingzhou, he may not immediately leave to return." Tong Jingyi looked at Mu Yu with soft eyes, and analyzed, "This time the prince is going to fight with Saihan, and he will definitely not return in vain, but the emperor was suddenly assassinated, and the prince will definitely return to Beijing immediately." So I guess that the war will end soon, and the prince will return soon. ”

"Jing Yi is right." Huangfu nodded and said in a deep voice, "I also think that the crown prince will soon collect his troops and return to Beijing." ”

Even if you don't think about the emperor's illness.

He'll be thinking about his throne, too.

Cheyenne will figure this out for him.

Seeing Mu Yu's tired face and knowing that she was pregnant, Huangfu asked Mama Chu to lead Tong Jingyi and Mu Yu down to rest, leaving Mu Yao alone to speak.

Not seen for months. Mu Yao is still so dignified and delicate, but between her eyebrows and eyes there is no longer the same comfort as when she came back last time, but it seems to be full of thoughts, Huangfu is from the past. Knowing that she was definitely not going well in her mother-in-law's house recently, she remembered that Shen Qingli told her about the obscure things about the Chen family, so she asked directly, "Yao Niang." Your husband is outside, and your mother-in-law treats you well? ”

"Good!" Mu Yao smiled faintly. Softly said, "Don't worry about grandmother." The granddaughter is fine at her in-law's house. ”

Now that the house is worried about her father's affairs, how can she cause trouble to the family again.

"That's good." Huangfu knew that she would not say, and it was inconvenient to ask again, so he said, "You are tired after sitting in the carriage for such a long time, go to your aunt's place to rest!" ”

Mu Yao walked out of Muying Hall and went straight to Jing Si Yuan.

Seeing the familiar figure waiting for the door from a distance, tears couldn't help but burst out of his eyes, and he hurriedly walked a few steps and threw himself into Mei's arms: "Auntie, I'm back." ”

Come to think of it, she is really unfilial.

After marrying in Jingzhou for half a year, he didn't come back to see Mei's family.

"It's good to come back, it's good to come back." Mei wept with joy and kept patting her back, "Auntie saw the magpie chirping in the branches early in the morning, and knew that there would be a happy event today." ”

Mu Yao's heart was sour.

Listening to Mei's tone, she didn't know that something had happened to her father, presumably because she had been neglected for a long time on weekdays, and no one remembered to come to sue her, or was too lazy to come and sue her.

The mother and daughter held hands and entered the house.

The house is still a qiē.

Mu Yao looked here, touched there, and saw that Mei was busy serving her snacks and pouring water for her, and tears couldn't help but flow out again, she hadn't received such intimate care for a long time.

In Chen's Mansion, she was circling her mother-in-law.

If you are not careful, you will be quietly sneered at by your mother-in-law.

When she was at her mother's house, she was used to swallowing her anger.

When she arrived at her mother-in-law's house, she still had to swallow her anger.

"Yao Niang, is the Chen family treating you well?" Mei only thought she was crying with joy, just smiled and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, took her hand, and asked quietly, "You have been married for a few months, but there is any movement?" ”

"Auntie, don't worry, the Chen family treats me very well." Mu Yao lowered her head and wiped her tears, and couldn't help but say, "Less than ten days after my husband got married, I was sent to Yuzhou on an errand, and I haven't returned yet, where will I have any movement?" ”

"Then my uncle didn't say anything back?" Mei asked with concern.

"I don't know." Mu Yao shook her head, "Every time I send a letter, I just report safety, I don't say when I will come back." ”

"It's normal for a man to be on an errand outside." Mei persuaded, "If you don't come back for a long time, you can look for him, it's not a way to keep it like this!" ”

"I know, I'll talk about it later!" Mu Yao smiled reluctantly, "He's only been out for a few months, why am I in a hurry to look for him?" It's my aunt, how are you doing lately? ”

She married and learned that her mother-in-law Shang was not Chen Yutang's biological mother.

Therefore, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along more strangely and politely.

It's good if you get along like this all the time.

Who would have thought that as soon as Chen Yutang left, her mother-in-law immediately seemed to be a different person, openly and secretly looking for trouble with her, which made her life very difficult.

However, she didn't dare to say this qiē to others.

It is true that she and Mu Yu are sisters, but Mu Yu is a hot character. If I told her, I might get into trouble.

The Mei family originally had a bleak life in the Hou Mansion. It is even more impossible to say, to say. It can only add to her troubles.

Let's hold it in my heart!

"I'm naturally good." Mei smiled and said truthfully, "Although your father doesn't come here much, but I often come here, your second sister-in-law is a warm-hearted person, she comes to see me every now and then, and she sends me food and clothing, but she has become more and more inconvenient in the past two months, so she comes to me less." But the Ah Hua Bi Tao in her yard often ran this way, and I didn't want to go, and I couldn't go over to serve her, so I had to make some small clothes and quilts for her. ”

As he spoke, he turned around with a smile on his face and took out a bag from the cabinet, opened it and showed her: "Yao Niang, look, I have made two pieces of all the little clothes, and when you have children, you don't have to worry about it." Auntie has done it for you. ”

"Auntie, don't burn your eyes." Mu Yao looked at the colorful little clothes in the baggage, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, this is too much, right?

"No more, no less." Mei carefully tied the burden and said. "There are clothes for boys and girls in this baggage, and it's always good to prepare more, and you don't just have one child. I have to keep making these clothes! ”

"Auntie is really hard." Mu Yao smiled. It's up to her.

It's always good to have something to do.

There is hope in my heart. Life can go on.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, Mu Yao went to Yiqing Garden, saw the Su family, presented gifts, sat down for a while, got up to say goodbye, and went to Qingxin Garden.

Shen Qingli knew that Mu Yao had just come back, and when she saw her come to see her so soon, she was naturally very happy in her heart, and hurriedly welcomed her into the coat room to talk.

The two talked about Mu Changyuan as usual, comforted each other, and then changed the topic.

"Second sister-in-law, I came back in a hurry, and I didn't bother to bring you food from Jingzhou." As soon as Mu Yao sat down, she took out a small wooden box from her sleeve, pushed it in front of Shen Qingli, and smiled, "I bought a pair of wrenches at the Jingzhou temple fair, although the price is not high, but the shape is good, so I bought it and gave it to the second brother and second sister-in-law, I hope the second sister-in-law will not dislike me for buying it from the stall." ”

In the delicate hollow wooden box, there are two emerald wrenches, one large and one small, which are shaped like smart droplets, which is really chic.

"The second sister is serious, such a beautiful wrench, I like it at first glance, how can I dislike it?" Shen Qingli picked them up one by one, looked at them carefully, flipped through his memory, and said with a smile, "I have been to the Jingzhou temple fair many times, and merchants from all over the world will gather there. ”

Although she doesn't know much about the identification of gold and silver jewelry, but for more than a year, the jewelry she has come into contact with are valuable treasures, and she has a lot of experience.

"It's good if the second sister-in-law likes it." Mu Yao smiled lightly, "In the days when I was away, thanks to the second sister-in-law taking care of my aunt, my aunt's life was good." ”

Although her mother-in-law Shang treats her a little harshly on weekdays, her monthly money will not be less than her, although she has spent most of her savings on the wrench, but she does not feel distressed at all.

"Second sister is polite, Aunt Mei is not only your aunt, but also my elder, I should take care of her." Shen Qingli saw that the ornaments between her temples were very ordinary, and there were two that were not out of the pavilion, obviously her life was not easy, and now, after receiving such a valuable gift from her, she felt a little unhappy in her heart, and began to think about how to return this gift, otherwise, she would feel uneasy.

"Then I have to thank the second sister-in-law, if there is no second sister-in-law's care, my aunt's life will be sad." Mu Yao smiled and changed the topic again, couldn't help frowning, and sighed, "When I didn't go out of the cabinet before, I didn't feel my aunt's suffering, but now that I'm married, I know that my aunt's life has been really difficult over the years." Fortunately, my mother has not deliberately felt sorry for my aunt over the years, otherwise, I don't know how long my aunt can survive? ”

"Second sister, when will my sister-in-law come back?" Shen Qingli asked quietly.

No matter what she said, she was also a person from the past, and she knew about the obscure things of the Chen family, but since Mu Yao got married, she came back less, and she didn't have time to ask her how she was doing in the Chen family, and now listening to Mu Yao's sigh like this, Shen Qingli always felt that something was wrong.

"I don't know." Mu Yao shook her head, twisted the handkerchief and disappeared.

"Then how is your mother-in-law treating you?" Shen Qingli asked again.

Only then did she find out that she was very similar to Mu Yao, and the Su family was not her mother-in-law, if there was no Huangfu family to protect her, she didn't know how much to be angry with the Su family!

"Good!" Mu Yao said against his will.

"That's not good." Shen Qingli said without thinking.

Mu Yao has never been a person who makes trouble out of nothing, and now she is so depressed, she must have been bullied in her mother-in-law's house, Chen Yutang is not at home, and there will be no one else who bullies her except her mother-in-law.

"Second sister-in-law......" Mu Yao was stunned for a moment, suddenly looked up at her, there were tears in her eyes instantly, and she bit her lip and didn't speak.

"Second sister, don't you even believe me?" Shen Qingli held her slightly cool hand and said softly, "Don't be afraid, if you have any grievances, just tell the second sister-in-law, the second sister-in-law will call the shots for you, the second sister-in-law can't help you, and your second brother, you sue the second sister-in-law, is your mother-in-law treating you well?" ”

"Second sister-in-law!" Mu Yao couldn't help holding Shen Qingli's hand anymore, and sobbed, "Second sister-in-law, I'm not doing well, my mother-in-law is always embarrassed for me, I can't delay the morning and dusk, she deliberately fell ill at every turn, so I couldn't wait for her day and night, I really couldn't stay up, I didn't want to go back!" ”

"Second sister, are you going to put up with it like this?" Shen Qingli was angry and distressed, this was obviously abuse, if it was a mother-in-law, how could her mother-in-law treat her daughter-in-law like this?

Thinking of the Su family, Shen Qingli was also annoyed in his heart.

"What else else?" Mu Yao wiped her tears and sighed, "My husband is not at home, I can't turn my face with my mother-in-law and spread it out to make people laugh." ”

"Second sister, you stay at home first, don't rush back, wait for your father's affairs, and then I will find a way to help you." Shen Qingli comforted, "Let your second brother find a way to transfer your sister-in-law back, if your sister-in-law is at home, I won't dare to bully you anymore." ”

In the courtyard, the dusty Ah Qi stood outside the window, already in tears.

Until Ah Hua came to her in surprise and asked, "Huh?" Sister Qi, why are you standing here if you don't come into the house? ”

"It's okay, let's go in." Ah Qi wiped a handful of tears, lifted the curtain and entered the house, saw Shen Qingli and Mu Yao, and said busily, "Young lady, the slave is back." Then, he turned to Mu Yao and saluted: "I've seen Second Miss." ”

"Sister Qi, hurry up." Mu Yao hurriedly got off the kang to support her, the corners of her mouth were slightly pulled, "I haven't seen Sister Aqi for a long time, when I was in Jingzhou, I often thought of you!" ”

"It is a blessing for the slave to let the young lady remember." Ah Qi said quietly.

"Second sister-in-law, Sister Aqi, you talk first, and I'll come and sit again tomorrow." Mu Yao obviously saw that Ah Qi had something to report, so she got up and said goodbye with interest.

"Ah Hua, send the second lady back." Shen Qingli didn't keep it.

"Young lady, the fourth prince has returned!" Ah Qi said in a low voice. (To be continued......)
