CHAPTER XVIII

The sound of porcelain falling to the ground kept coming out of the room, and the people of Qingchun Yuan stood outside one by one like wooden stakes, and they didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of being angry. In the room, Cui Yu knelt on the ground and sobbed quietly, her cheeks were red and swollen, and she knew that she had been slapped for a long time. And Yu Xiao is still smashing things and scolding, and he doesn't stop at all.

Today, their group of young ladies who entered the palace to accompany them were sent back by the palace people, and the chamberlain went to the front to restore his life, Yu Xiao was on fire as soon as he entered the house, and he has not been angry until now.

"What's the noise!" As soon as Mrs. Xu entered the house, the teacup thrown by Yu Xiao shattered at her feet. Mrs. Xu scolded angrily, walked in and saw that Yu Xiao's clothes were messed up, her makeup was spent, and even her hairpin was crooked, so she was even more angry, and said, "Look what you look like!" How can there be a little bit of Miss Gonghou's appearance! I know that I am horizontal at home, why don't you see you have such a great ability when you go out?! I went to so many young ladies, why did the people of the tenth princess pass on the word to you alone so that you don't have to go in the future?! It won't work out at all! ”

Yu Xiao felt that she had been greatly wronged in the palace today, and now when she heard Xu training her, she immediately cried and said: "I was bullied like this today, my wife didn't say that she helped me get angry, and now she blames me!" The daughter of a three-grade commander dares to give me no face in public, what kind of princess am I! ”

Xu walked to the front and sat down, ignoring Yu Xiao, who was crying and wiping away tears, and said to Cui Yu, who was still kneeling, "What are you still kneeling for?" I handed the young lady into your hands, you didn't dissuade her words and deeds in the palace, and now she has been punished for making mistakes, are you still wronged here? Get down! Cui Yu hurriedly kowtowed and got up and retreated, Xu turned to Yu Xiao, looked at her coldly and said: "If you want to cry again, I'll wait until you've cried enough. ”

Yu Xiao saw that Mrs. Xu had anger on her face, and she didn't dare to spill it anymore, so she walked up to Mrs. Xu, pulled her sleeve and said aggrievedly: "My daughter is also angry, no one dares to do this to me when my daughter is so big." ”

Mrs. Xu glared at Yu Xiao with hatred, and said, "I shouldn't expect you to do anything, forget it, it's already like this, you tell me clearly what happened in the palace first." Why did the tenth princess reject you alone? ”

Hearing Mrs. Xu ask, Yu Xiao hurriedly said, "It's not that Qin Xiwen yet!" Thinking of Qin Xiwen, Yu Xiao gritted her teeth with hatred, and told Mrs. Xu about the things in the palace again, and said fiercely at the end: "That Qin Xiwen's eyes are above the top, and she looks down on Mu Qingling's fatherless and motherless guy on weekdays, she didn't deal with me when she met in the past, and this time she humiliated me in public in the palace!" Madam, you have to call the shots for me, ma'am! ”

Hearing Qin Xiwen's name, Xu only felt that her head hurt even more, she sent Yu Xiao into the palace during the filial piety period, and the old lady couldn't explain it, thinking that Yu Xiao was taken by the tenth princess, and the old lady had nothing to say. But now Yu Xiao was returned by the tenth princess, not to mention the loss of people, and also had a grudge with Miss Qin. Although the Qin family is a family of military generals, Qin Yuguan, who is in charge of the family, is the commander of Jingwei, although he is a third-grade official, not up or down, but this position is responsible for the defense of Gyeonggi, which can be said to be the henchman of the emperor's henchmen, which should not be underestimated.

"Nothing is enough, there is more than failure! How did I give birth to such a debt collector as you! I didn't learn the slightest bit of prudence, but I don't know where I learned to be arrogant! Mrs. Xu stretched out her hand and slapped Yu Xiao's forehead a few times, planning in her heart what to do with Yu Xiao's matter, and an old woman's voice came from outside the door, saying, "Second wife, the old lady is invited." ”

Xu Shi looked at the door, his face instantly gloomy, sneered, and said to himself: "Look, the autumn queen is here." Yu Xiao stood aside, timidly watching Xu walk out with someone, biting his lip and wringing his hands and not daring to make a sound.

Mu Fu used to live in the official residence behind the governor's yamen because of Mu Jiangxuan's relationship. Now that Mu Jiangxuan is gone, the new governor is already on his way to his post, and Mu Qingling will not be able to live in the official mansion anymore. Fortunately, Mu Jiangxuan went to Hangzhou before and was fully prepared. In the east of Hangzhou, a five-entry house was purchased, and only servants were left to take care of and clean it on weekdays, and now it is just convenient for Mu Qingling to move.

For a family like Mufu, moving does not mean that you can move away by packing up and bringing people and belongings at will. Before dawn the day before, the four stewards under Mu Zheng began to pack up the belongings of the house.

These four belong to four warehouses, in charge of the treasure house of antique utensils, the treasure house of gold and precious cloth and clothing, and the treasury of gold, silver and jewelry.

None of these four warehouses are easy to take care of, antique porcelain is fragile, silk satin, ready-to-wear leather robes can not be contaminated with dust, and so the things in these two warehouses are packed up, and it is already in the middle of the day to load the car and leave the house. The carriage carrying the cage lined up for a long time, the first carriage out of the house had already walked to the main street, and the last one had just left the house.

In this huge transportation, the people who don't know what is going on are still guessing which rich family is going to marry a daughter, and later they learned that it was the Mu family who moved to the house. Looking at the Mu family's convoy and the ebony boxes that were stacked high on the cart, the road surface was pressed out of deep ruts by the carriage. It's no wonder that a while ago, Mufu made a fuss about being stopped on the street, how can such wealth not make people tempted.

Who knew that after noon, two more teams of chariots and horses came out of Mufu. This time, the chariots and horses that took the lead were escorted by the government soldiers, and the horses were all sabre-armed soldiers. It can be seen that the goods transported are expensive. Look at the lively people lining up along the governor's official office all the way to the newly hung plaque of the Mu family's mansion, there are many gardens in the east of the city, and most of the famous people in Hangzhou live in this area.

The new house of the Mu family has five entrances and three roads, and the house with the garden spans three whole streets. The Mu family has always been low-key, and it is not obvious on weekdays, but today's relocation can be regarded as letting everyone understand the accumulation of the Mu family for a hundred years.

By the time all the financial accounts were put into storage, it was already late. The stewards of the four warehouses must stay in the new mansion and re-register the things sent over, and the whole new mansion must also be cleaned out and ready to welcome the master. The huge Mufu is brightly lit, and the people are busy coming in and out. It wasn't until the husband passed by three times that he gradually stopped.

The next morning, Mu Qingling's mother Qi took the big maid Yunjian to pack up Mu Qingling's personal belongings, and first loaded the car and took the little maid and the rough envoy of Chunxitang to the new house to shop it. Yunqiao served Mu Qingling after freshening up, and after breakfast, he saw that Mu Qingling was a little absent-minded since he got up, so he asked, "Miss, is there something on your mind?" ”

Mu Qingling looked out the window with a pair of sparkling beautiful eyes, gritted her teeth, as if she had made up her mind, and said, "Liuyunxi is watching here, you go out with me." Yunqiao hurriedly put down the things in his hand and followed Mu Qingling out of Chunxi Hall.

Mu Qingling took Yunqiao and a few little maids all the way to the guest house where Xiao Lanwei lived. The courtyard door was ajar, and when I got closer, I could hear a little wind breaking, as if someone was waving something. Mu Qingling stood at the foot of the steps and motioned for Yunqiao to knock on the door. The boss of Yunqiao was not happy, so he walked to the door and looked inside first, before reaching out and knocking on the door panel.

In the courtyard, Chang Lin and Xiao Lanwei are holding swords, Chang Lin looks powerful in a strong suit, and Xiao Lanwei, who is also in a dark color, is not as burly as Chang Lin, but rather chic and graceful, a long sword dances chic and elegant, and between the sword light and sword shadow, it does not lose the mighty and powerful Chang Lin. The second saint in Beijing dared to let the little prince go out alone, also because Xiao Lanwei was both civil and military since he was a child, and the idlers couldn't help him. Otherwise, he is really a weak scholar who is powerless, and the Queen Mother will not let him wander around the world without taking people with him.

The two were interrupted by a knock on the door, the long sword in Xiao Lanhuan's hand against Chang Lin's Shu knife fell on Chang Lin's shoulder, next to the cold blade was Chang Lin's neck, Yunqiao screamed in fright, Mu Qingling hurriedly stepped forward to push the door and looked, and saw that the two had withdrawn their moves, Xiao Lanwei pulled a sword flower, leaned against his back, and said with a smile: "Why is my sister here, I haven't dared to disturb you when I see you busy these days." ”

Yunqiao looked at Chang Lin who was standing behind Xiao Lanwei, and seeing that he was still that cold, he retreated behind Mu Qingling with a long sigh of relief. Because of the last time in the garden, I don't feel so terrible to see Chang Lin again.

"Senior brother is so interested." Mu Qingling praised it, waved her hand to let the maid wait outside the door, walked into the courtyard with Yunqiao, and said, "I will leave for Xinfu in the afternoon...... In any case, I should still ask, what are the arrangements for the senior brother next? ”

Originally, Xiao Lanxuan had said that he would leave after Mu Jiangxuan's funeral. Now that Mu Jiangxuan has entered the ground, and the Mu family is about to relocate, these things should have been communicated between Yu Wenyuan and Xiao Lanhuan, Mu Qingling has been busy taking care of housekeeping these days and can't spare time to ask Xiao Lanhuan, this is about to leave, Mu Qingling couldn't help but come to find Xiao Lanhuan.

Xiao Lanwei handed the sword in his hand to Chang Lin, took the handkerchief handed by Chang Lin and wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said with a smile: "I have already told Yu Gongzi, why didn't Yu Gongzi inform my junior sister?" ”

Mu Qingling shook her head, Xiao Lanling couldn't help but want to tease Mu Qingling again, for some reason, every time she got along with Mu Qingling, Xiao Lanling always had to start with "bad thoughts", and she had to make Mu Qingling blush.

"Does my sister want me to go, or not?" Xiao Lanwei approached Mu Qingling, raised her sword eyebrows, and asked. Mu Qingling was stunned, and glanced at Xiao Lanwei angrily, this person, why can't he speak well!

"Senior brother's daughter, I don't dare to guess what senior brother means." Mu Qingling said. Xiao Lanwei laughed, pretending to be embarrassed, "It's okay, you are free to speculate, senior brother doesn't mind." ”

Mu Qingling was secretly annoyed why she came over to ask this shapeless guy, and she turned her head silently. Xiao Lanwei was energetic, walked around Mu Qingling with her hands behind her back, and said, "I said that day, I will leave when Lord Mu is funeral." Seeing that the first seven days of Mu Daren are coming, it is really not good for me to stay for this time longer, or I will leave? ”

Xiao Lanwei paused, turned her head to look at Mu Qingling's face, saw Mu Qingling's expression moved slightly, and said: "But the fan that my sister promised me the day before yesterday has not been written, and I haven't asked for this color, let me leave like this, senior brother, I am also unwilling, what can I do?" ”

At this time, how could Mu Qingling not know that Xiao Lanhuan deliberately teased her, thinking about it, if Xiao Lanhuan was leaving, she should have come to resign a long time ago, and she would never wait until today. Mu Qingling blamed herself for not waking up when she encountered something about Xiao Lanhuan, and was annoyed that Xiao Lanhuan had to tease her every time, so she said: "Since this is the case, the junior sister is wrong, senior brother wait a minute, the junior sister will write to you now." ”

After saying that, Mu Qingling turned around and left, Xiao Lanhuan didn't follow, so he raised his voice in the courtyard and said, "Then senior brother is waiting!" If the junior sister doesn't give it, the senior brother can only chase it to the new mansion and rely on it! ”

Mu Qingling walked out of the courtyard gate, bit her lip and glared back, and took Yunqiao back to Chunxi Hall. Although he was angry on his face, the deer in his heart who had been up and down all morning quieted down when he learned that Xiao Lanwei would not leave yet.

After noon, more than 100 maids and family members of Mufu went up and down, with the last of their personal belongings, followed by the carriages and horses of several masters of Mufu, and headed towards Xinfu. Since then, there has been no governor Mu family in Hangzhou, only a century-old Mu family, rooted here.
