Mu Yu exchanged a few words, and seeing that the old lady's mood was now stable, she didn't dare to ask anything else, and she didn't even dare to mention Xie Chongning's name in front of the old lady.

The old lady also deliberately avoided this, she sighed lightly, "Okay, you go home to accompany your mother more, I still have to chant Buddha, I don't have time to take care of you." ”

"Grandmother, you must remember to take care of yourself, then I will leave first." Now that the old lady has issued an expulsion order, she has no reason to stay.

The maid beside the old lady sent her out of the courtyard, "Miss, before you come back, the old lady is talking to you, you are back, she is embarrassed to talk to you more, Miss don't mind." ”

"I know my grandmother's temperament, too." Mu Yu nodded, the old lady was both eccentric and hard-mouthed, could she not know? "You take good care of your grandmother, and since your grandmother is dedicated to chanting Buddha, let her go."

"That's what Miss said." The maid bowed her head in response.

When Mu Yu had seen her grandmother, Shen Mei was already waiting in her boudoir, and asked with a smile, "Have you seen your grandmother?" ”

"I've seen it, my grandmother is chanting Buddha." She nodded to her mother, looked at the pastries on the table, wiped her hands with a handkerchief with joy, picked up the pastries and ate them.

"Eat slowly, these are for you, if you like it, I'll ask the cook to cook more for you and let you take it home." Shen Mei sighed dotingly.

She doesn't necessarily like this pastry much, but this taste has always been the taste of her childhood, she is used to eating it, "No, I just haven't eaten it for a few days, I miss it a little, if I really want to eat the pastries in the house, it's a big deal that I come back to eat it, where do I need to take it away." ”

Shen Mei watched her eat the pastry, hesitated for a while, lowered her voice and asked quietly, "Yu'er, you tell your mother the truth, what is going on between you and Xie Chongning?" ”

"Nothing, mother, don't worry." Mu Yu paused, "It's good that the two of us respect each other like guests and don't disturb each other." ”

"What does it mean to respect each other as guests as guests and not disturb each other?"

Mu Yu pouted, "Mother, I'm really fine!" If you continue to ask like this, I'm going to run back in fear! ”

"Okay, okay, I won't ask you." Shen Mei nodded, but he didn't mean to stop talking, but continued to ask, "Then I heard your father say this morning that Xie Chongning went out today and brought a woman with him?" ”

"Really? I don't know. Mu Yu blinked innocently.

Shen Mei was anxious when she saw that her daughter didn't know what to ask, "My stupid ballad!" Why don't you know anything, you don't know who that woman is, could it be ......?"

"No, it won't." Mu Yu hurriedly interrupted his mother's dangerous thoughts, Zhang Wei was obviously just a doctor who followed Xie Chongning, how could he come to his mother's side and come up with any idea.

Shen Mei disagreed, "You believe in Xie Chongning so much?" You must know that Xie Chongning was lukewarm to you when he was a child, and finally changed to you some time ago, but when he got married, he changed back again, rumor, you must know, this husband has to be coaxed. ”

"Then mother has been coaxing my father like this?"

"Of course your father is different, he still feels very sorry for me." Shen Mei sighed earnestly, "Don't take what I said, don't take it to heart!" ”

"By the way, mother, I'm in the house, why didn't I see the third aunt?" Mu Yu seized the opportunity and quickly diverted the topic.

Shen Mei was suddenly stunned, frowning and looking a little stunned, "She, she was kicked out of the Luanping Marquis Mansion by your father." ”

"Driven out of the house? Isn't she already crazy? ”

"Well, it's crazy." Shen Mei nodded and said Mrs. Ruyang, although what she did before was to make people grit their teeth with hatred, but as a woman, Shen Mei still pitied her.

Crazy and still want to get out of the house? "Why did my father do that?" Mu Yu frowned, this Luanping Marquis Mansion has a big business, and it is not bad for this Mrs. Ruyang to be alone, her son has just died, and she is crazy again, if she is driven out of the mansion, how can she survive outside? Anyway, that's a human life.

"Your father doesn't want your grandmother to be sad when she sees her." Shen Mei said, and there was a lot of helplessness in his tone.

When Mu Yu heard this, he nodded, and he didn't have the heart to ask, it is estimated that his mother also persuaded his father about this matter, but it didn't work.

It's just that she doesn't know about her father's changes in recent years, but she just pities Mrs. Ruyang for wandering alone in today's chaotic world.

The mother and daughter simply chatted a few words, and in a blink of an eye, it was dark, and the sunset in the distance was still struggling on the horizon, Biyue looked into the distance, and then reminded the mother and daughter, "Miss, it's not too early at this time, should we go back?" ”

Mu Yu looked at the plate in front of him that had been swept away by himself at some point, and chuckled, "Mother, then I'll go back first, and I'll come back to see you another day." ”

Shen Mei still took her daughter's hand, and wanted to send her to the door, "Yu'er, you must take care of yourself, if you meet someone unhappy in Xie Mansion, remember to tell me." ”

"Mother, you really don't have to worry about me, I'm doing well in Xie Mansion." Mu Yu got into the carriage under Shen Mei's gaze, but just halfway there, he met an old acquaintance he hadn't seen for a long time.

The curtain of the carriage had always been lifted, and she would look out the window from time to time, and not far away in front of the paving, there stood two very familiar figures, a man and a woman, who should be husband and wife.

When the carriage walked in, she saw that the husband and wife were none other than Lin Changjin and Yi Xue. Yi Xue smiled and lay in Lin Changjin's ear and didn't know what he was talking about, Lin Changjin nodded gently, extremely obedient.

The moment the carriage passed, Yi Xue's face changed slightly, and her voice stopped, Lin Changjin noticed her abnormality, followed her gaze, and just glanced at Mu Yu across the carriage.

Mu Yu nodded at the two people outside the window, and Lin Changjin responded calmly with a nod, and from then on, the carriage passed by the two of them unhurriedly and drove out of their sight.

Biyue asked with some uncertainty, "Is that person just now Gongzi Lin?" ”

"Hmm." Mu Yu pursed her lips, the matter between her and Lin Changjin seemed to be like a world away, but if you calculate it carefully, it is only half a year old.

Seeing that her young lady didn't speak, Biyue couldn't figure out what the young lady meant for a while, so she whispered yes tentatively, "Lin Gongzi seems to have changed quite a lot." ”

"Yes, it's good to see the two of them together sweetly, and now I feel a little less guilty." She didn't like Lin Changjin in the first place, but now that Yi Xue and Lin Changjin can come together, it is naturally a good thing for the three of them.

"Miss has nothing to feel guilty about, I don't think Miss has done anything wrong." Biyue's heart naturally turned to her own young lady, "It's just that I think what Madame said today is right." ”

"Do you think Madame is right about what she said again?" Mu Yu was puzzled.

"That's what Master Xie said, I think that woman, Miss, you have to guard against it."

Mu Yu chuckled, "What, what do you see?" ”

"I don't think the woman named Zhang Wei is simple." Biyue said seriously, "Miss, you have to pay attention!" ”

"How do you tell?" Mu Yu tilted his head, but he didn't pay much attention to Biyue's proposal.

Biyue folded her fingers and began to count the reasons, "Miss, look, first, this Lord Xie has never touched other women except you before, and even the subordinates in the house are mostly men." Second, I can see clearly this morning that Zhang Wei's eyes looking at Lord Xie are not the eyes of ordinary women looking at people. ”

"Do you see so many things?" Mu Yu raised his eyebrows, "Then what do you think Zhang Wei's eyes are?" ”

"It's the dog's eyes when they see the food!"

"Haha." Mu Yu couldn't help laughing, "Who did you learn this parable from, but don't say that I taught it?" ”

Biyue was embarrassed by Mu Yu's laughter, and shyly touched the back of her head, "Miss, you can't laugh at me because I'm uneducated, but you have to believe that what I said is true!" That Zhang Wei is definitely very strange. ”

"So what do you think I'm going to do? They're all on their way to the south now, so could it be that I'm still chasing after them? Mu Yu shook his head and smiled.

Biyue was suddenly deflated, "Actually, it's not impossible to chase after it." "Maybe you can cultivate feelings by the way. It's just that in the second half of the sentence, she only dares to think about it in her heart.

Mu Yu retracted his smile and looked serious, by the way, Biyue didn't know about the southern plague yet, and it could even be said that most of the people in the capital would not pay attention to the southern plague, and few people in the capital took the plague to heart.

Back in the house, the family members of the Xie Mansion were in a hurry, said hello to her in a hurry, and began to get busy with their own affairs.

Mu Yu curiously asked Xie An, who was following him, "What are they busy with?" ”

"They're all preparing what the adults asked them to prepare before they left." Xie An took out a list from his chest and handed it to Mu Yu, "This is the list that the adults asked us to prepare before leaving, because the adults were in too much of a hurry, so let us send these things over later." ”

Mu Yu glanced at the things on the list roughly, it was the same thing she saw Zhang Wei sorting out that day, "So many things? "This list is nothing more than cotton cloth and medicinal herbs.

It's just that this medicinal material, which can only be used for a few taels of medicine, is actually calculated by catties, and presumably the entire pharmacy in the capital will be hollowed out.

"Yes. The adults asked them to prepare quickly, so most of the people in the house were sent to buy things. ”

"How many days will it take to prepare?" Mu Yu glanced up at the servants who were still busy, and couldn't help but feel a little worried, it would take time for these things to be transported over, and he didn't know if the things Xie Chongning brought on the road were enough.

"Three days at least. Especially this snake gall, near winter, the snake is going to hibernate, and the snake gall at this time is afraid that it is difficult to find a lot of money. ”
