When Mu Qingwan returned home, it was only around four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

The carriage stopped at the main gate of the Anping Marquis Mansion, and Mu Qingwan entered the gate and walked towards Hanxiangyuan through the front yard.

"Who's up ahead?"

Mu Qingwan saw a woman in front of her who walked in front of her with blank eyes and old clothes, the woman staggered and moved, and she didn't remember seeing this person in her memory.

"Miss, this is Aunt Ma, the biological mother of the second miss."

Ruyi whispered to Mu Qingwan.

"It's her, where is she going?"

Aunt Ma didn't have any life in her eyes, like a living dead, and slowly walked away.

"There's no one living there, it's like heading in the direction of a pond, what is she going to do there?"

Ruyi said suspiciously.

"No, she's looking for a short time. Stop her, Su Mei, you go and call the people from the big house! ”

Not far from the shortcut to Hanxiangyuan is an abandoned pond where Mu Lan's nurse drowned. Mu Qingwan noticed that Aunt Ma's state was wrong, so she and Ruyi quickly ran in the direction of Aunt Ma, while Su Mei ran to call someone.

It's just that in the end, it was still a step too late, and when Mu Qingwan rushed over, Aunt Ma had already jumped into the pond, just waiting motionless to sink, it seemed that Aunt Ma was determined to die.

"Ruyi, help me."

The pond water in August was already a little cold, and Mu Qingwan didn't want Ruyi to go into the water to save people.

Pulling out the long whip wrapped around her waist, Mu Qingwan quickly wrapped around Aunt Ma, and with the help of Ruyi, she brought the person out of the water.

"Ahem."

Aunt Ma coughed a few times, just sat down on the ground, and did not react, but woke up, staring blankly and motionlessly at the surface of the water.

Mu Qingwan didn't speak, so she was just guarding against Aunt Ma looking for a short time again.

After a while, footsteps were heard in the distance.

Mu Qingwan, who had been staring at Aunt Ma, did not miss a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes, and then returned to her dim appearance.

Mu Qingwan's eyes flashed, and she sighed helplessly in her heart, she was another person who was making a scene.

"Aunt Ma, okay, what are you doing here? You mother and daughter, you don't want me to be better, do you? ”

Xiao An's walked over quickly with the maid and mother-in-law, and as soon as she came over, she counted Aunt Ma with her head and face.

"Come on, don't hurry up and take people away."

As soon as Xiao An waved his hand, two sturdy mothers-in-law stepped forward, ready to set up Aunt Ma.

Aunt Ma seemed to have the strength suddenly, broke free from her mother-in-law's hand, took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, stepped forward, and plunged into the pond again.

"Ah, dead man."

I don't know who screamed, and the scene instantly became chaotic.

Just after rescuing Aunt Ma, Mu Qingwan's whip was handed to Ruyi, and at this moment, Mu Qingwan didn't want to save people anymore, so she watched this group of people toss.

"What are you doing in a daze, don't save people quickly."

Xiao An pointed to the mother-in-law beside him and shouted an order, but the water in the pond in August was already very cold, and no one wanted to go into the water to save people.

Mu Qingwan saw that Aunt Ma had begun to flutter in the water, and sighed helplessly, although Aunt Ma was originally intended to show anyone, Mu Qingwan couldn't bear to watch people die in front of her eyes.

Just when Mu Qingwan wanted to make a move, a deep voice came.

"What are you doing here? Don't hurry down to save people. ”

It turned out that Uncle Mu was here, and Uncle Mu commanded the little guy who followed him to go into the water.

The old man gave an order, but the other party was just an old and decrepit old aunt, and she didn't care about the difference between men and women, so the little girl jumped into the water with a plop and struggled to save the person.

At this time, Aunt Ma had already rolled her eyes a little.

"Xiao Qi, why are you here?"

Uncle Mu suddenly said this.

Mu Qingwan wondered in her heart, who is Xiao Qi? When he realized that everyone's eyes were looking at him, he realized that the little seven in Uncle Mu's mouth was referring to himself, and Mu Qingwan was ranked seventh in the mansion.

"Qingwan has seen the uncle."

Mu Qingwan was half a beat slow before giving Uncle Mu a salute, and because of this, she left an unsmart image in the other party's heart.

"Why are you here?"

Uncle Mu asked again.

"I had just come back from visiting friends, and when I was passing through here, I heard a strange noise from the pond, and I was curious, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect that someone had fallen into the water. So, here it is. ”

Mu Qingwan said half-truthfully.

"Well, it's none of your business here, you can go back first."

This kind of thing is not good not to let children participate, and it is an ugly thing in the big house, so Uncle Mu sent Mu Qingwan to leave first.

After Mu Qingwan left, Uncle Mu asked Aunt Ma very unceremoniously.

"It's okay not to stay in the yard, what are you doing here? What exactly do you want to do? ”

"Master, the concubine body, the concubine body and soul are bitter. My Xin'er is just gone, and I can't go into the ground when I die, my heart is bitter as a mother. Master, the concubine watched Xin'er grow up little by little from such a small doll, but if she didn't, it was gone, my daughter. The concubine doesn't blame others, only blames her for her bad life, woo. ”

Aunt Ma was heartbroken, crawling on the ground and weeping, crying blood.

After all, it is also his own flesh and blood, and Uncle Mu himself does not have many heirs, although he is only a concubine, but when he heard Aunt Ma say this, Uncle Mu also felt uncomfortable.

"Aunt Ma, why are you doing this? Xin'er can't think about it herself, it's a hundred, but she has suffered the remaining daughters in the house, and she will not marry in the future. Even you are not sensible? is still messing around, how are these people down there? If you toss like this, the master of the house will also suffer, if it reaches the ears of the imperial history, it will inevitably impeach the master for not governing the family strictly. ”

Xiao An's saw that Uncle Mu's face was not good, and he was afraid of getting angry, so he reprimanded Aunt Ma for not knowing anything. Xiao An's words reminded Uncle Mu that Aunt Ma's behavior sounded good out of a hard work for her mother, but if she was really implicated, Uncle Mu would immediately wake up.

"It's just nonsense, her mother is An's, what's the matter with you, it's a good toss."

Uncle Mu's words suddenly made Aunt Ma's already pale eyes even more bloodless.

"Master, the concubine knows that she is wrong, and she will not make trouble again in the future, but I just implore the master to read that the concubine is the biological mother of the second miss, and let the concubine collect the body of the second miss. After the concubine is born, she eats the Buddha and prays for the lord and his wife. ”

Aunt Ma compromised and grabbed the ground with her head, and a small pool of blood appeared on the bluestone slab.

"Alright, you're up. Let Madame arrange it, don't be too loud. ”

Uncle Mu meant to agree to let Aunt Ma out of the house.

"Master Xie, Mrs. Xie."

Aunt Ma didn't realize it, and continued to kowtow until all the people around her were gone, and then she staggered to her feet.

"Hehe, Xin'er, did you see it? This is your real father, haha. ”

Aunt Ma smiled and laughed, and then cried.

"So, Aunt Ma is asking to go out of the house to deal with the aftermath for the second sister?"

Although Mu Qingwan left, Su Mei was mixed in the crowd and witnessed the whole process.

"Miss didn't know that the second miss was born and couldn't be put into the ground, but a roll of broken mats was thrown into the mass grave."

Su Mei solved Mu Qingwan's doubts.

"Is that so?"

Mu Qingwan was really worthless for Mu Qingxin, and she was both sympathetic and sad for Aunt Ma's behavior.
