Chapter VI Inquiries
Seeing that autumn is about to begin, the Queen Mother's birthday is coming.
After staying up for several nights in a row, Mu Ningxuan finally made the warm hat in advance, the material of the warm hat was the mink skin rewarded by the official family the year before last, and the brim of the hat was embroidered with gold thread with four delicate small characters of longevity and boundlessness, which made the big night pearl in the middle of the warm hat particularly rich and eye-catching.
Mu Ningxuan put the hat on her head and tried it, gestured with her hand, it was just half a fist bigger, no need to change it, Mu Ningxuan took the hat off her head with satisfaction.
"County Lord, this hat is so good-looking, it looks warm, the Queen Mother will definitely like it." Xiaofu said as she put away the warm hat in Mu Ningxuan's hand and put it into the brocade box, and continued; "County Lord, in order to prepare a birthday gift for the Queen Mother these days, your eyes have been red, and now it is finally done, you can rest for a while."
Mu Ningxuan smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not tired." Xiaofu, go and call Feng's mother over. ”
"Yes." Xiaofu answered and immediately went out to find Feng's mother.
Feng's mother and Liu's mother both went to the Pingchang Marquis Mansion with the eldest lady Yang from her mother's house, and they were old people around Yang's side, after Yun Fei left the palace that year, Yang was not worried that Mu Ningxuan would only leave Xiaofu, a little maid, and specially entered the palace to beg the queen mother to send Feng's mother into the palace.
The Queen Mother directly pointed out that Mother Feng was the master of this side hall, and anyone in the side hall who was related to Mu Ningxuan, whether it was a eunuch or a palace maid, Mother Feng could manage it. With Feng's mother here, over the years, Mu Ningxuan has had a fairly smooth life in the palace.
After a while, Feng's mother came in with Xiaofu.
"County Lord, your name is the old slave?"
Mu Ningxuan asked Xiaofu to move a stool to Feng's mother.
Mother Feng saw that Mu Ningxuan was rare to be so solemn, and she couldn't help but have doubts in her heart.
"County Lord, this?"
"Mother Feng, sit down and talk, I have something important to ask you." Mu Ningxuan said gently.
Mother Feng sat down a little uneasily, she couldn't think of what she had done wrong recently, but seeing that the county lord had become much calmer since he woke up that day, it didn't look like he was playing tricks, but at first glance it looked a bit like when Mrs. Yang was alive. Mrs. Yang is Yang's mother and Mu Ningxuan's grandmother.
Although Mrs. Yang has passed away for many years, but now, all the nobles and dignitaries in the capital mention her, and they all stretch out their thumbs to admire from the bottom of their hearts, Mrs. Yang is sleek, bold and capable, the male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, and the old lady Yang takes care of the Wenguo Mansion in an orderly manner. It's a pity that Mrs. Yang died early and did not protect the Yang family, but the Yang family's temperament was like his father, and he did not support the burden of the Mu family of Pingchang Houfu, the head of the house.
"County Lord, if you have something to say, the old slave must know everything, and he will say everything."
"Mother Feng, I want to ask you something about Mother Liu, I heard that after Mother left, Mother Liu returned to her hometown to seek refuge with her nephew, where is her nephew's hometown?"
Feng's mother thought for a while and said: "The old slave doesn't know where Liu's mother's nephew's hometown is, I have heard Liu's mother mention the nephew, saying that it is her sister's child, it is said that Liu's mother's sister is often beaten or scolded by her man after marriage, and Liu's mother has a fear of men after she knows it, and she guards the young lady all her life, and she doesn't want to marry again."
Unlike the old slave, not long after the young lady married into the Mu Mansion, she matched the old slave with someone, and was admired by the young lady, and the old slave's family was in the Zhuangzi outside Beijing, and they lived a comfortable life. When Feng's mother talked about her family, she couldn't help but smile happily.
"Mother Feng is so blessed." Mu Ningxuan said with a smile.
"It's all because of the love of the big lady." Mother Feng smiled and said, "By the way, the county lord asked Mother Liu's nephew what is the reason for his hometown?" ”
"I dreamed of my mother last night." Mu Ningxuan said softly.
"It turned out that the county lord wanted the eldest lady, if the eldest lady had a spirit in the sky, she would definitely not want to see the county lord sad." Mother Feng looked at Mu Ningxuan's somewhat lonely expression, and suddenly felt distressed.
