Volume 1 The Orphan Girl of the Imperial Capital Chapter 7 Secretly Prepared

The eldest lady took Mu Qingyao back to the main courtyard, and her smiling face sank instantly: "I didn't even see Mu Yunlan's true face before!" ”

Mu Qingyao took the teacup over and comforted her softly: "Why should my mother be angry with her, I just didn't expect her to have a sudden seizure today, I haven't seen her so backbone in the past, I think I'm desperate." ”

The thought of handing over what she had in hand made the eldest lady feel extremely uncomfortable in her heart.

"Today she made me lose face in front of the old lady and the old lady, and this account naturally can't be easily calculated."

"Mother is going to do that?"

"Doesn't she want to be in charge of the third room? Okay, I'll let her take care of it, greed is not enough to swallow elephants, in addition to fiddling with those poems and songs, flowers and plants, when will she manage the account? I don't believe she can turn the sky up overnight! ”

Wait until the third room is in a mess, I don't believe that Mu Yunlan doesn't ask to come to the door! When the time comes, it will be logical for her to take over again, and see who dares to gossip.

Take 10,000 steps back and say, Mu Yunlan really turned over and opened up with one move, it also depends on whether she agrees or not, can't she make some trouble if she doesn't have trouble?

Mu Qingyao nodded, and kissed her arm affectionately: "Mother is very worried, the third uncle didn't have much savings during his lifetime, just let her toss." It's just that today's grandfather is lenient to her, and he made such a big mistake that he was only grounded for a month. ”

The eldest lady patted her arm and explained slowly: "Now that the New Year is approaching, it is impossible for your grandfather to let her be grounded during the New Year. Your grandfather was punished lightly, but he knew it! Sooner or later, this mistake will be used. ”

"Mother is thoughtful."

On this side, not long after Mu Yunlan returned to the courtyard, the eldest lady sent someone to send the account book key and the like.

Picking out a few books and flipping through them, Mu Yunlan couldn't help but frown, there weren't many silver taels in the accounts of the three rooms, but the dowry of her mother Lin was extraordinarily rich.

was grounded and didn't have to go to ask for peace, which just suited her heart. Mu Yunlan spent three days sorting out the account books, and couldn't help but admire her biological father Mu Zhengmin a little more. It turned out that Sanfang would spend a large amount of money every year to help the widows of those soldiers who died on the battlefield, no wonder the dignified general, there were only more than 1,000 taels of silver in the account in the house.

Mu Yunlan supported some silver and asked Mrs. Zhou to go out to buy medicinal materials, and then she moved her muscles and bones in the courtyard every day and took a medicinal bath to recover her skills. Some of the subordinates still didn't give up, and they were caught by her and thrown into the pond and almost frozen into popsicles, and no one dared to make a small move after that.

Mu Yunfan has also suffered in the past few days, every day Mu Yunlan got up and ran around the yard for an hour, he would catch his younger brother who was sleeping like a pig in the nest and let him follow him.

The chubby little body trembled, and from time to time he blinked and looked at his sister beside him with big eyes.

It's a pity that Mu Yunlan is easy to talk on weekdays, but at this time she is ruthless, no matter how pitiful Mu Yunfan is, she is not moved at all, staring at him After finishing the horse steps, he threw him into the medicated bath bucket and soaked until he was red all over.

After Mu Yunlan finished taking the medicinal bath, she tied sandbags to her arms and calves before taking Mu Yunfan to breakfast.

In the first few days, she couldn't even pick up chopsticks for breakfast after exercising, and it took more than half a month for her to get better.

In her previous life, she practiced martial arts since she was a child, but now she has no force to support herself, and she only feels that she is restless day and night. Fortunately, this body is really competitive, although there was an illness, but the foundation is excellent, and after just a few days of exercise, it is quite effective.

However, Mu Yunfan's qualifications are even more enviable, when he is older, he can be systematically trained, as long as he is diligent, he will become a great talent in the future.

In the afternoon, Mrs. Zhou walked in quickly, her expression a little unstable: "Miss, the slave went to buy medicinal materials today and met a person." ”

"Who?"

"Yes...... It's your nurse, and she asks the slave for your news, and the slave only says you're all right. ”

Mu Yunlan's expression moved slightly, the nurse was very good to her, and she tried her best to teach her some ways to deal with the back house on weekdays, but the original character was too cowardly, and she was extremely disgusted to hear this, and she was quite prejudiced against her.

"I remember there will be a lantern festival in Kyoto tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, in order to celebrate the approaching New Year's Festival, there is no curfew tomorrow, and there will be lanterns everywhere to pray for a safe and smooth coming year.

"Hmm." Mu Yunlan nodded, turned around and went into the house to prepare things. She had already planned to meet the nurse and the people who had been kicked out of the house before, to see if she was still willing to return to the mansion, and she was now starting to exercise her skills, and the weapons for self-defense should also be prepared in advance, so this time she went out to see together.

"Miss, do you want to go out tomorrow?" Looking at Mu Yunlan's expression, Mrs. Zhou asked tentatively.

"Hmm." Mu Yunlan wiped the dagger clean and put it away, got up and moved her body, "Mother Zhou, you should know how to do it, right?" ”

Mrs. Zhou nodded hurriedly: "Yes, miss, don't worry, the slave will definitely take care of the little young master and not let anyone know your whereabouts." ”

Mu Yunlan nodded with satisfaction, took out two ingots of silver and threw them over. Mrs. Zhou held the silver, and her eyes flashed with excitement, she had already gotten on the same boat with the young lady, and the more generous she was, the more she would be able to benefit.

The next day, Mu Yunlan changed into men's clothes, stood in front of the bronze mirror and looked at herself back and forth, pursing her lips with some dissatisfaction.

She thought that after wearing men's clothes, she should be heroic and cool, and the jade tree should be in the wind, but who would have thought that the image in the mirror would have apricot eyes and moist eyes, red lips and white teeth, and look soft and glutinous, not majestic at all.

After tossing for a long time, he didn't achieve the desired majestic effect, so he could only go out.

Yongchun Lane is not far from the Guogong Mansion, and when Mu Yunlan arrived at the nurse's house, the Wu family was cooking.

Seeing Mu Yunlan dressed in men's clothes, Wu was instantly stunned in place, and muttered in a daze: "Madame......"

"Nurse?"

"Ah, miss," Wu Shi came back to his senses and quickly wiped his eyes, "The old slave was stunned, just now I thought I saw the lady who had not left the pavilion, when she was your age, she also liked to pretend to be a son, and traveled everywhere with the emperor...... The old slave lost his words, please don't blame the young lady. ”

"Nurse, don't be polite." Affected by the original feelings, Mu Yunlan also felt very kind when she saw this nurse, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.

The Wu family invited Mu Yunlan into the house, and looked at her again and again: "Miss has suffered." ”

Feeling her sincere concern, Mu Yunlan smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing." ”

"A few days ago, the old slave heard that you went to the temple in the west of the city to pray for blessings, so he felt that it was inappropriate, and hurriedly asked people to protect you, but unfortunately he was a step too late, and there was a fire in the temple, fortunately, God bless, you are fine."

Mu Yunlan thought for a while, and didn't tell what happened in the temple: "Nurse, I came this time to invite you back." ”

"I can serve by your side, the old slave can't ask for it, but the eldest lady is afraid that she won't let go easily." The nurse said, carefully looking at Mu Yunlan's face, she had said many times that there was something wrong with the big house, but the young lady not only didn't believe it, but also gambled with her, thinking that she was stirring up trouble.

Mu Yunlan blinked, stretched out her hand and buckled it on the table: "Don't worry, nurse, when I master the third room, I will take you back justifiably." ”

Wu was a little relieved, but seeing her determined look, it was not easy to pour cold water: "By the way, miss, the old slave has been visiting the young master's family for a few days. ”

"Wu Pozi?" Mu Yunlan thought for a while, "Some time ago, she was beaten up because she didn't take care of Yun Fan well, what's wrong with her?" ”

"Wu Pozi's son is idle, addicted to gambling, and some time ago he owed a large amount of gambling debts, and he broke a leg by a debt collector, but just a few days ago, he suddenly paid off all his gambling debts, which was hundreds of taels of silver."

Mu Yunlan raised her eyebrows, and her eyes rolled: "I know, I will pay more attention to her movements in the past few days, thank you for the reminder." ”

"That's what an old slave should be." The two talked for a while, Wu happily prepared a table of meals, and Mu Yunlan left after eating and drinking.

After arranging the things on the nurse's side, she was in a good mood, walking towards the Huanhua Lake, looking at the lively scenes around her along the way, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, it was really different.

Although the dynasty she lived in in her previous life was also strong, it was far from the prosperous and prosperous Dayong Dynasty now.

"Childe, the lantern capture is about to begin, do you want to use the boat?" On the shore of Huanhua Lake, a captain saw Mu Yunlan dressed as a son, and enthusiastically stepped forward to solicit him.

Looking at the high platform built in the center of the lake, Mu Yunlan's eyes couldn't help but light up, such an opportunity should not be missed!

After getting on the boat, I slowly approached the center of the lake, and the sound of silk and bamboo was faintly heard, and there were water lanterns floating by the side of the boat.

The lake water is clear, the light and shadow are swaying, and suddenly people have the illusion of floating in the Milky Way.

At this time, on the second floor of the largest building boat in the middle of the lake, a man dressed in a dark crane was holding a white jade carved dragon wine cup, half leaning against the window and looking at the high platform in the lake with an indifferent expression. After a while, as if he felt bored, he casually threw out the wine cup in his hand, causing a crystal splash.

A blue-clothed guard walked in: "Master, it's windy by the window, your body is ......"

The man turned his head, and a cold flash flashed in his narrow phoenix eyes: "Things are arranged?" ”

"Back to the master, it has been arranged."

"Hmm." The man answered softly, raising his eyes to look at the radiant lake, and the coldness in his eyes was as thick as ice and snow.
