CHAPTER XXXV

As soon as Mu Qingling returned to Mufu, she was pulled by Yunqiao to cross a brazier. Yunqiao, who was so frightened that he couldn't sleep for several days, turned pale with a pale face, guarded Mu Qingling and stepped over the copper basin burning with coals, and hurriedly dusted Mu Qingling with grapefruit leaves dipped in water.

Yunqiao and other people in the Mu Mansion were sent back by Zhou Qingnian's people, and the Yunwai Temple was attacked that night, and the monks in the temple and the Mu family's family Ding Nursing Home suffered heavy casualties, and when Mu Qingling returned to the house, he placed the family of the deceased and found someone to take care of the injured, and these miscellaneous matters were busy for several days.

"The clothes are still the Zhou girl's, go back and choose a few pieces that I haven't worn before, and then go to the library to get a set of noodles and send them to others." Mu Qingling was dressed in an azure cloud brocade gown, her hair was loosely pulled up, and she was only adorned with a few pearl hairpins, lazily leaning on the beauty couch by the window, seeing that Yun Jian was cleaning up the clothes she wore a few days ago, she hurriedly ordered.

Yun Jian replied while cleaning up: "Yun Qiao has already selected the things, and he will send them over just after the girl sees them." ”

Mu Qingling held her forehead and was drowsy, and when she heard Yun Jian say this, she let out a reassuring "um". The little maid with the beauty hammer gently beat her leg at her feet, and Yun Jian saw that Mu Qingling was going to sleep or not, so she also relaxed the movements of her hands.

There is incense burning on the forehead on the side, the quiet aroma is light and calming, and the green trees outside the window are shady, isolating the scorching sun. In the birdcage hanging under the porch, they are jumping and dancing flexibly, singing from time to time, and their voices are crisp and beautiful.

The familiar environment has made Mu Qingling's heart settle down, these days have experienced ups and downs, emotional ups and downs, and I don't feel it fashionable to be in it, but now once I relax, I feel uncomfortable everywhere in my body.

Yunqiao came in from outside, walked to Mu Qingling's side and called softly, "Girl, girl." ”

Mu Qingling answered lazily, Yunqiao poured a cup of tea on the round table, sent it to Mu Qingling, and said, "Wake up, girl, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Wang family you asked to invite have arrived, and they are now waiting in the flower hall." ”

Hearing Yunqiao say this, Mu Qingling rubbed his forehead, drank all the tea in the cup, and said with a long sigh of relief: "This person is just not relieved, even when he was outside, he felt a hundred times more energetic, and now that he is back, he can't keep up his spirit all day, and he feels very weak." Changing handles, don't let Brother Wang and them wait for a long time. ”

Yunqiao waited for Mu Qingling to change her clothes, and said: "Girl, don't mention the previous incident, look at it, this young lady in Hangzhou City who has suffered such a crime from a girl, I have thought about it when the girl has no news, and if I can't find it, I will die and ask the old lady for the guilt." ”

As she spoke, Yunqiao's eyes turned red, and Mu Qingling knew that she had been frightened in the past few days, so she hurriedly said: "Okay, the blue sky and the day will die at every turn, and it is not too unlucky." Am I not coming back? Why don't our sister Yunqiao check it again and see if your girl is missing a hair? ”

Yunqiao touched his eyes and squatted down to tidy up Mu Qingling's skirt. Mu Qingling looked at herself in the mirror, and saw that Yunqiao still looked dejected, and said with a smile: "Okay, is this to blame me for not coaxing you well these days?" Go, take out my pair of white jade lily hairpins. ”

The pair of hairpins that Mu Qingling asked Yunqiao to take were the best mutton fat jade, and some people regretted when this piece of material came out, such a good material that was moist and dripping has become more and more rare over the years, but it is a pity that the jade has a small piece of yellow. It's a pity to cut it, and it always feels like a flaw if you don't cut it.

Later, a skilled craftsman broke this piece of material and carved a pair of flower hairpins, and the yellow color just became the stamens, which was natural, as if the lilies on the branches were frozen in time, and stayed in the most perfect time forever.

Mu Qingling pulled her hair back and inserted a hosta, her hair was as black as ink, and the two lilies between the cloud buns were in full bloom, elegant and chic. She is still in filial piety, not luxurious, such a dress is just right.

Yunqiao looked at Mu Qingling in the mirror, their girls are so beautiful, their appearance and temperament are top-notch, why is this life like this. lost her mother at a young age, lost her father at a young age, and there were so many jackals staring at her inside and out, thinking that she would be eaten alive if she didn't pay attention.

If... If the girl could have someone to trust for life and rely on...... A person's figure flashed in Yunqiao's mind. Regardless of the person's status or talent, he is just right with their girls, and he is very protective of girls on weekdays, otherwise......

"Cloud Bridge? Cloud Bridge! As soon as Mu Qingling turned around, she saw that her personal maid looked like she was flying out of the sky, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of her eyes, and called twice.

"Huh?" Yunqiao came back to his senses, and Mu Qingling said with a smile: "What do you think about so engrossedly, so that you can't hear it." Let's go. ”

Mu Qingling led people to the flower hall, and saw Wang Gui and his wife sitting on the chairs in the flower hall from a distance, their waists were straight, and the refreshments next to them were not touched, and they were uncomfortable.

Mu Qingling waved away the maid who followed behind her, and walked in with only Yunqiao, Yunxi, and Yunjian.

"Brother Wang, sister-in-law Wang, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Mu Qingling walked into the flower hall and greeted him, Wang Gui and his daughter-in-law subconsciously stood up, and saw Mu Qingling walking in slowly, rich and exquisite, and the ring sounded softly when walking.

The Wang family and his wife took two steps back a little crampedly, rubbed their hands on their clothes twice, and then said with a smile: "Wait a little soon, Miss Lao Fu specially invited us to come over." ”

Wang Gui's words were quite upside down, Mu Qingling didn't hold it up, and laughed. walked up to Sister-in-law Wang, helped her sit down, and quipped: "It's just a change of place, why did the eldest brother and sister-in-law have so many points." Qingling is taken care of by the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and I should thank you for all the reason, and now there is no one here, the eldest brother and sister-in-law should be at home, feel at ease, and we can talk. ”

Sister-in-law Wang pulled Mu Qingling and looked up at her. She knew that the two people her man helped that day were not ordinary children, but she never expected that one of their ordinary actions would become their lifesaver.

"What did the young lady say, it was our whole family...... No, it's our whole village that should be thankful to Miss, if it weren't for Miss's help, we don't know what it would be like now! Sister-in-law Wang said with red eyes, she was about to get up and kowtow to Mu Qingling, but Mu Qingling hurriedly asked Yunxi and Yunjian to stop the two.

Mu Qingling sighed: "Big brother and sister-in-law, you really don't have to be polite. Sit down, or I'll have to stand and talk with the two of you. ”

Finally persuaded the two to sit down, beckoned them to use tea, and Mu Qingling said: "This time, I invite my eldest brother and sister-in-law to come over, first, I want to formally thank the two of you, if there is no help from the eldest brother and sister-in-law, I will ...... Brother, I'm afraid it will take some time to go home. The second is that now the Feng family's case has been accepted by the Zhou Governor's Mansion, and the occupied fields and property in the village will all be returned in the future, but the trial time is long, and the governor has to wait for the governor to take office. ”

Hearing Mu Qingling say this, Wang Gui and his wife were even more moved, and Sister-in-law Wang touched her tears and said to Mu Qingling: "Miss can help us avenge our grievances, it has already done us a great favor, and after ending the matter of the Feng family, I can't be sad this day, where do I dare to bother Miss anymore." ”

Wang Gui said yes again and again on the side, Mu Qingling knew that they were honest people and had a pure heart, so he diverted the topic and led them to chat. Because Wang Gui and his wife had to go back to Wangjia Village, Mu Qingling estimated the time, so he sent Wang Gui and his wife out of the house.

The subordinate took Wang Gui and his wife to leave from the side door, and as soon as they went out, they saw a cart parked outside the door, with some rice flour cloth on it, all of which were strong and durable. It was a sturdy ox with smooth fur and a flicking tail that drove flies, and when he saw the people coming out, he turned his head to look this way.

"This ...... This is ......" Wang Gui and his wife were a little dumbfounded when they looked at these things, and the Mu family stepped forward and said: "Don't be surprised, Miss said, both of them are hard-working people, and if you give gold and silver, you must not want them." These are all things that farmers can use, and it is already neglectful to repay the two of them for saving their lives, and I hope the two of them will not dislike it. ”

"I can't do it." Sister-in-law Wang waved her hand again and again, and the Mu family smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, don't embarrass our subordinates, it's all ordered by the young lady, and we can only do it." Besides, if my sister-in-law doesn't accept these things, the family won't need them, so my eldest brother and sister-in-law should do us a favor and accept them. ”

Wang Gui looked at the scalper pulling the cart, and his eyes were a little shaken. His family also had livestock, and they were all good at plowing the land and grinding. It's just that he was also dragged to pay off his debts later. He originally thought that now that the Feng family had fallen, he and his daughter-in-law would work harder and save some money to buy a calf, but he didn't expect that now Mu Qingling would prepare all these for them.

Wang Gui and his wife couldn't refuse, so they could only take the whip of the car. Before Sister-in-law Wang got into the car, she knelt under the stairs of the side door and kowtowed several times, crying silently.

In the flower hall, Mu Qingling has not taken anyone back to the East Courtyard. The subordinate who sent Wang Gui and his wife away came to return to their lives, and heard that Wang's sister-in-law kowtowed in front of the side door, Yunqiao, who was standing next to Mu Qingling, sighed: "These two are really simple and kind, and they deserve to be good and rewarded." ”

Mu Qingling nodded, looked out the door and said, "If there are more people like Sister-in-law Wang in this world, there will be less right and wrong." ”

"It sounds like my sister has a lot of feelings, are you interested in telling my brother about it?" Suddenly, there was an old and unserious ridicule, Mu Qingling looked back, and saw Xiao Lanwei lying in front of the window, leaning in halfway in, not in shape.

Mu Qingling looked around first, she was afraid that Wang Gui and his wife would be uncomfortable, so she sent most of the subordinates away, so now Xiao Lanwei is like this, few people see it, Mu Qingling turned around and motioned to Yunqiao to go out with the remaining maids first, and then turned her head to look at Xiao Lanwei and said, "Lord, what's the matter with being seen like this by the subordinates." Senior brother didn't care about it. ”

Xiao Lanwei put her hand on the window frame, jumped in from the outside, and said disapprerovingly: "Anyway, there is a senior sister who takes care of the senior brother, and the senior brother is naturally indulgent." Thank you, sister! ”

Mu Qingling glanced at Xiao Lanhuan, who came to her, and saw that he jumped out of nowhere, and there were some fallen flowers on his shoulders. I couldn't help but reach out and brush it off for him.

Xiao Lanwei watched Mu Qingling's movements, and waited for her to withdraw her hand before she smiled and said: "I heard that my junior sister and the sister-in-law of the Wang family were chatting happily, so I didn't come out to disturb, now that the person is gone, there is something, I have to tell my junior sister inside." ”

Mu Qingling thought that Xiao Lanwei had something important, so she hurriedly said, "Senior brother, please speak." ”

Xiao Lanwei bent down and looked at Mu Qingling fixedly, with a serious face. Mu Qingling was a little nervous by him, but he heard Xiao Lanwei say: "Senior sister just called me in front of the sister-in-law of the Wang family, what did you call me?" ”

"Huh?" Mu Qingling was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and then her face turned red, biting her lip and not knowing how to answer.

Xiao Lanwei still looked serious and serious, and said: "I am the youngest son in the family, and I have a lot of brothers and sisters on my head, but no one has ever called me that, but now I can be regarded as encountered, hurry, call again to listen." ”

Mu Qingling was embarrassed by Xiao Lanwei's words, and she felt funny. This person is going crazy from time to time, and he doesn't know which one is his real appearance, whether he was in the prefect's yamen before or the current one.

"Hurry up, do you dare not listen to what the prince said?" Xiao Lanwei urged.

Mu Qingling was a little annoyed by his ridiculous eyes, pushed him, and said, "Don't listen, what do you want to do, prince?" After speaking, he glared at Xiao Lanhuan, flicked his sleeves and walked out.
