Chapter 169: The Emperor Arrives
"That dead old woman!"
After Mama left, Mu Rou angrily smashed the cup in her hand.
Looking at the jewelry that was sent, the viciousness in his eyes continued to spread, crawling all over his face.
The maid was frightened and didn't dare to speak at all, she desperately hid towards the corner, but she didn't dodge at all, Mu Rou gradually looked at her after venting.
The maid, who was already frightened at the moment, didn't dare to move at all.
Mu Rou looked at the maid, her voice was faint, but the dark eyes were like snakes constantly tightening around the maid's neck: "What do you see?" ”
"We didn't see anything, we didn't see anything!" The maid's pupils constricted, and her face turned pale.
Seeing the maid's expression in her eyes, Mu Rou looked at the maid coldly and said, "You just broke a cup, do you say you should report to the housekeeper." ”
Hearing this, the maid looked at the cup fired by blue and white porcelain jade, and her face turned white in an instant.
The cost of this kind of cup is ten taels of silver, not to mention that this kind of cup is never sold alone. The price of one set is three hundred taels, and if she talks to the housekeeper now, then all this money will be deducted from her monthly service.
Three hundred taels, she has to be a maid in the Mu family for fifteen years to be able to pay for it!
As for going to sue, she was originally driven here to serve Mu Rou because she offended her wife, and those who wanted to please Mrs. wanted her to make mistakes every day, and then they took her down and went to Mrs. to ask for credit.
Thinking of this, the little maid's face turned even paler. She looked at the cup on the ground, and then at Mo Rou, who was leisurely drinking tea, and slammed it on the ground.
"Please Miss Rou save me."
Mu Rou suddenly smiled and said: "These three hundred taels are trivial to me, I don't care, but there is no free lunch in the world, I will give you three hundred taels, what do you give me." ”
Qingluo slammed on the ground again, "Qingluo can give herself to Miss Rou, and in the future, Miss Qingluo will do whatever she asks Qingluo to do." ”
Hearing this, Mu Rou immediately smiled. It seems that the methods learned from Mrs. Qi are a bit useful. You can find a few more people to try it in the future.
Thinking of this, she looked at Qingluo, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said: "Since you voted for me, I can't help but say, here are three hundred taels, go and sweep the floor, and when the ground is cleaned, you can go home to see your father, and you will follow me in the future." ”
Without any struggle, Qingluo kowtowed lightly again and slowly stood up.
She looked at the three hundred taels in her hand, and there was no fluctuation in her heart.
Just now, Mu Rou didn't let her tell the housekeeper about it again. In other words, as long as she doesn't tell the housekeeper about it, Mu Rou won't care.
Even if the matter of this cup is over, as for the 300 taels of silver in her hand, it is her money to sell herself.
A maid can sell herself for 300 taels, which can be said to be a very good thing.
However, I don't know why, Qingluo just felt a sadness lingering in her heart.
However, soon the sad was quickly left behind by her, and her eyes ushered in a determined color, and she took the 300 taels of silver and walked home.
And Mu Yunqian was in the maid, and when he left the house, he also received the news.
Zhao Sidao: "Does Miss want to dispose of this maid?" ”
Mu Yun's eyes narrowed, and then said: "No need, you go down, this maid will naturally be dealt with in the end." ”
Zhao Si nodded and stepped back.
Mu Yunqian tidied up the hairpin on his head, and laughed softly: "It seems that you are finally ready to do it, I thought you were going to be an honest person again this time." ”
Speaking of which, Mu Yunqian was happy. Is she a new person? Don't even think about it.
The sky gradually brightened.
The sun slowly rose from the east, and everyone in the Mu family was ready and began to walk towards the post station built by the Mu family.
And at this moment, on the street, ten steps, one sentry, five steps, one post, and a team of well-equipped soldiers, restraining the people standing behind them. Single
Now, the emperor has not yet arrived, and the county decree will not order these people to kneel until the emperor arrives.
However, looking at the overwhelming crowd, Mu Yunqian knew for the first time that there were so many people in their small city.
When he arrived at the post station, Mu Yunqian walked down with the support of the girl.
At this moment, the people in the post house also gathered at the door of the post house early.
The old lady is in charge of the overall situation and arranges where everyone stands.
There is also the etiquette of kneeling when you see the emperor.
After Mu Yunqian's suggestion, he practiced twice, and then the chaotic post door was completely quiet.
Everyone in the Mu family, the old lady and Mu Zheng stood in the front two positions.
Mu Yunqian and Bai Xiu'er stood behind the two of them.
As for Mu Rou, she stood in the third row almost on an equal footing with the subordinates.
This position made Mu Rou hate the Mu family even more, and she didn't want to do it at all, if the Mu family hadn't raised her, then she would have starved to death in a long time.
From the morning sun rises slightly, until now the sun is high.
No one saw the emperor's dragon, but no one dared to leave here.
Even the old lady stood with her body bent.
Finally, when the old lady was sweating profusely, there was a burst of "Hurrah Hurrah Hooray!" from inside the city. ”
When the old lady heard this, she reacted immediately, he picked up a handkerchief, wiped the sweat from his face, and ordered everyone to tidy up their clothes.
Then, when Zailong just appeared in front of them, all the people hula lala knelt down.
"See the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live!"
Mu Yunqian took advantage of the fact that Long Ji had not yet arrived, and quietly raised his head and glanced at it.
At a glance, she saw Li Changfeng riding a horse in the front, and she was happy at first, but she didn't expect him to come.
Then he noticed another person, King Shen Li Zhishen also rode a high-headed horse and rode side by side with Li Changfeng.
This made Mu Yunqian frown.
She didn't expect that this troublesome character would also live in the post house built by the Mu family.
Thinking of the confession that night, and Li Zhishen left in a bad mood, Mu Yunqian had an ominous premonition.
However, now she can't show it even if she is uneasy in her heart, the emperor is coming, and if she has a sad face, the first impression she gives to the royal family is not good.
The Emperor Dragon passed by their group in a majestic manner, but did not stop.
Only the two princes nodded to them, and then escorted the emperor into the luxurious post station that the Mu family built for them.
For the emperor's neglect of them, Mu Yunqian did not feel any surprise.
Although the Mu family is a wealthy merchant family, it is not rich enough to need the emperor to get off the sedan chair and receive him in person.
Therefore, the Mu family greeted the emperor outside, but they didn't even see the emperor.
Shinong industry and commerce, businessmen are ranked last, and their status can be imagined.
This is also the reason why Mu Zheng agreed to let Mu Yunqian marry Song Chen.
Different classes mean different statuses.
