048. It is easy to gather and disperse
After the door was pushed open, Mu Jingchi walked in, and I looked at him sideways, looking at him very calmly, and I didn't make a big noise.
When he arrived at me, he saw me sitting in front of the dresser safe and sound, he finally sighed and hugged me into his arms, I didn't push him away, just quietly hugged by him.
Mu Jingchi stared at me with low eyes and said, "I know what Mother Zhou means to you, but I also want you to understand that no matter how deep your relationship with Mother Zhou is, you are just a master and servant, don't forget your identity." ”
I said, "Is Mama Zhou really not coming back?" ”
I still stubbornly asked.
Mu Jingchi slowly squatted down, looked at eye level with me and said, "I will find a good place for Mother Zhou and Steward Zhou, so that they can enjoy their old age in peace, and if you miss them in the future, you can also go to see them, isn't it good?" Do you want them to be so old and still take care of people in the Mu family? ”
I cried and said, "But Zhou's mother has always been by my side, if she leaves, what will I do?" ”
Mu Jingchi frowned, wiped the tears on his face for me, and said, "Isn't there still me?" ”
I shook my head and said, "You're different." ”
He was not very happy and asked: "What's the difference, is Mother Zhou more important than me?" Mu Jingchi hugged me in his arms again and said, "Nannan, we can go to see them together in the future." ”
At this point, it seemed that there was no room for turnaround, and I did not speak again.
I wasn't too happy in the next few days, as soon as Zhou's mother left, I found that there were a lot of inconveniences in my life, and often the clothes I had to wear Qing'er and Jasper had to rummage in the room for most of the day to find out, what time period I wanted to eat, and no one would take the initiative to prepare for me in the kitchen without me saying it. Although Qing'er and Biyu are also my maids, they have taken care of me for a while, so they are very familiar, but compared with Zhou's mother, I realized that there is no one in this world who can understand me as well as Zhou's mother.
I wasn't in a good mood during that time. No matter how much Biyu and Qing'er make me happy, I am always depressed.
In the afternoon, because Jasper couldn't find what I wanted, I lost my temper again in the house, and I didn't even wear any clothes, and ran out barefoot in my pajamas, shouting, "Why are you so useless!" I either can't find my things, or I don't know where they are, so what use do I want from you! ”
Biyu and Qing'er chased after me, and said anxiously: "Miss, don't worry, we'll find it for you." ”
I pushed Biyu and Qing'er away from me and said, "What else are you looking for, I'm going to find Zhou's mother." ”
I ignored them, quickly rushed downstairs, and was just about to walk outside, when Mu Jingchi suddenly stood on the second floor and said, "Where are you going?" ”
At the sound of his voice, I immediately paused, and looked back at him, who seemed to have just come out of the study, and he stood upstairs and watched me for a while, and then paced downstairs and came towards me, and the new butler followed him.
After Mu Jingchi arrived at my side, he first glanced at Biyu and Qing'er, probably blaming them for not taking good care of me, so frightened that Qing'er and Biyu knelt on the ground again.
But in an instant, when Mu Jingchi looked at me, he smiled, and he asked, "But Qing'er and Biyu made you angry again?" ”
I didn't speak.
When he saw me on such a cold day, he was barefoot, and he didn't even wear shoes and socks, and immediately said to Qing'er and Biyu, who were kneeling on the side, "Bring Miss's shoes and socks." ”
Qing'er and Biyu knelt on the ground and immediately said, "Yes." ”
I quickly got up and went upstairs to get shoes and clothes for me, and when they came down, Mu Jingchi took my shoes, and slowly squatted in front of me, while putting on shoes and socks for me, and said to Biyu and Qing'er in a low voice: "In the future, if I see Miss running underground without shoes and socks, I will go to the housekeeper to get the board." ”
The light and light tone made Biyu and Qing'er dare not say a word, they were very afraid of Mu Jingchi.
I couldn't help but say, "Regardless of what happened to Jasper and Qing'er." ”
Mu Jingchi had already stood up, he looked at me coldly and asked, "You think you can get out of it, if you do it again in the future, you will be no exception, you will still lead the board." ”
I pursed my lips and didn't speak.
Mu Jingchi lowered his eyes and looked at Biyu and Qing'er and said, "Get up." ”
Biyu and Qing'er stood up tremblingly and slowly stepped aside.
He looked at me and asked, "What, tell me, what's wrong with you?" ”
Then he went to the sofa and sat down, and the servant came up with the tea, and put it carefully in his hand, and he took it, brushed the tea from his cup, and waited for me to answer.
I still couldn't hold back, so I walked over to him, sat down beside him, hugged her and shook her hand, and said, "You can recruit Mother Zhou back for me." Qing'er and Biyu are good, but they are not good enough, without Zhou's mother to use it, brother-in-law, I beg you. ”
He chuckled, ignored me, and continued to drink his tea.
I shook it again and said, "You promise me, you don't know how bad my life has been these days." ”
When Mu Jingchi heard my words, he put down the teacup in his hand, looked at me and asked, "Oh? How bad is it? ”
I said, "I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, I can't dress well." ”
He looked at me with his lips hooked and said, "I heard Biyu and Qing'er say that you haven't been able to get up until three o'clock in the morning these days, and you can't eat well-" He looked at me a few times, and then pinched my face twice with his hand: "It looks like you've gained a lot of weight." ”
He finished pinching and picked up the teacup again.
I leaned in again and said, "Where is the fat, it's swollen, because I haven't slept well in the past few days." In fact, the weight hasn't changed at all, you ask Jasper. ”
I immediately gave Jasper a look, and when Jasper understood, she nodded vigorously.
Mu Jingchi looked at me for a long time before he laughed, put down the teacup and pulled me into his arms, hugged me on his lap, combed my slightly messy hair and said, "Okay, I know that you have a bad time during this time, but bear with it, and it will be fine when the adaptation period is over." ”
I said, "How long will it take to adapt?" ”
"Soon," he said. Then he covered my face, put a kiss on the corner of my lips, and whispered, "Be nice, okay?" ”
I tugged at my sleeve for a long time before I reluctantly fell into his arms and said, "Okay, I'll adapt to it again, if I really can't adapt to it, you can let Zhou's mother come back." ”
Mu Jingchi hugged me and said with a helpless smile: "Okay, little ancestor." ”
Mu Jingchi hugged me and coaxed me for a while, but he was still busy with something, so he didn't accompany me any longer, dropped a kiss on my lips, and went to the study again.
After Mu Jingchi left, I was always a little sullen lying on the sofa, Qing'er came up at this time and asked, "Miss, why don't we go out for a walk." ”
Biyu also immediately said to the side: "Yes, you haven't been out for many days." ”
I lazily asked, "Where to go?" ”
Qing'er also seems to be stumped by me, this rain has been falling for many days, and there is really no good place to go.
Qing'er suddenly thought of something: "Why don't I play cards with you?" ”
Jasper also said on the side: "yes, yes, don't you like to play cards the most?" ”
I rolled over, changed my position and continued to lie there lazily and said, "I don't want to play, I don't have any money." ”
Jasper: "......"
Qing'er "......"
At this time, Qing'er said again: "Then let's go to the backyard for a walk?" I heard that the florist has planted several kinds of flowers imported from abroad in the past few days, and it has only been planted for a few days, do you want to go and see it? ”
I said, "What's so beautiful about foreign flowers, aren't they all flowers?" ”
Just as Qing'er and Biyu were racking their brains to amuse me, a servant walked in in the rain outside the door, and when she arrived at the house, she patted the rain on her body and walked towards me and said, "Miss, there is your letter." ”
Letter?
I turned over and looked at the servant, she handed me the letter, I took it and put it in my hand and looked at it, the letter was from Wang Zhizhi.
I opened the envelope, and inside was Wang Zhizhi's words, and she said, Qingye, please come to the palace to meet me.
I didn't expect her to suddenly send me a letter, in order for something like the previous to happen, I asked Biyu to make a call to the palace, but after calling, the person on the other end of the phone hung up without thinking.
It was probably because of the relationship between the Mu and Yuan families, coupled with Mu Jingchi's sudden and ruthless suspension of the marriage, which led to the fact that the palace and the Mu family are now also enmity.
I sat there and thought about it, and finally decided to go to the palace, thinking that it would be fine anyway, so I immediately hurried upstairs, changed my clothes and came down, and a servant came up and asked me where I was going, and I said to them, "Go out for a walk." ”
I ignored them anymore, pulled Biyu and Qing'er out the door, and after the car drove over, I got into the car.
I didn't tell Mu Jingchi that I went to the palace, when the car finally stopped at the door of Wang Zhizhi's house, I walked down with Qing'er and Biyu, Qing'er saw the two guards standing in front of the palace, and said to me: "Miss, let's go in like this, okay?" Moreover, the relationship between the palace and the Mu mansion is ......"
I knew what she was worried about, so I ignored her and walked straight towards the gate of the palace, and when I reached the guard, I said, "I'm looking for you second miss." ”
The guard glanced at me, and saw that I was dressed in extraordinary clothes, but did not speak ill of me, but asked carefully, "May I ask who you are?" ”
I said, "Tell your lady, my surname is Lu." ”
The guard looked at me and hesitated. However, he did not refuse, but said to me, "Wait a minute. He quickly ran towards the house, and not long after, the guard ran out again, with a maid behind him, about Wang Zhizhi's maid.
The maid smiled and said to me, "Miss Lu, our young lady has been waiting for you for a long time. Then he made a gesture of please, and I walked in with Qing'er and Biyu, and I followed him and asked casually, "How is your young lady doing?" ”
But the maid did not speak, but after a while she said, "Go into the house." ”
Seeing the appearance of the maid who wanted to speak and stopped, it was probably not very good.
As we walked down a long corridor, the maid led me to a door, where she knocked twice and whispered, "Miss." ”
After arriving at the house, I saw Wang Zhizhi, lying on the hospital bed wearing a thin shirt, pale with a sick face, no energy at all, not seen for a short time, she seemed to be so thin that only skin and bones remained.
For a moment I didn't recognize her.
The maid carried a chair for me and placed it beside her bed, and when I sat down, I frowned and asked the maid, "How did this happen?" ”
The maid said: "After the young lady went to the Mu Mansion last time with the old man on her back, the old man and the young lady had a big quarrel when they came back, and the young lady was forbidden to her feet, and the young lady had an illness, and she has not been well until now." ”
I said, "Did the doctor say when it would be better?" ”
The maid shook her head at me and said, "The doctor didn't say when it would be better, but he didn't say what it was. ”
About Wang Zhizhi is still for that matter, and he doesn't think about tea and dinner, and he is emaciated like this.
I don't know what I can say, Wang Zhizhi lay there and didn't talk to me, just silently crying, that look is really shocking.
I looked at her for a while and asked, "Why don't I go out for a walk with you?" ”
Wang Zhizhi lay there and still didn't answer, after a while, she stared at the tent on the top of the bed, and said the first sentence with a little heart, she asked me: "Qingye, you said that I and him...... Isn't it impossible anymore. ”
I didn't know how to answer her, so I could only comfort her in a low voice, "Isn't it that things haven't come to an end yet?" Now it's just a suspension of marriage, it's not that it's impossible as you think. ”
She smiled tiredly and said, "Is it still possible?" Now that the three families are like this, it's probably not possible......"
After she finished speaking, she suddenly coughed violently, and the bed shook violently by her coughing.
The maid immediately came up and stroked her chest for her, and after she calmed down her breath, her tears flowed even more, and she even looked at me with three points of resentment and asked, "In that case, why did he propose to marry me in the first place?" If he hadn't offered to marry me and give me a thought, I wouldn't have had such great hopes. ”
I was a little speechless when she asked, and Wang Zhizhi turned her face tiredly and turned her face inward.
At this time, there was a maid outside who came in with a decoction, but she was not persuaded to drink it, so she put it there and retreated, and there were many bowls of decoction on the table, probably because Wang Zhizhi refused to eat, and they all fell cold.
Wang Zhizhi is like this now, a large part of it also comes from me, to be honest, I feel a little guilty, but I can't seem to do anything except guilt.
I could only sit there and sit with her for a while, she was not in a very good mental state, and during the time I was with her, she fell asleep in a daze.
In order not to disturb her, I could only get up and leave her room for a while, and when I got outside, her maid also came out with me, about to see me off.
I asked her how long Wang Zhizhi had been in this situation.
The maid said worriedly, for a while, since she learned that the marriage was suspended, she washed her face with tears all day long, and heard that the palace was also angry on the side of the Mu Mansion, and it was about the marriage that Mu Jingchi suspended, which made the palace very faceless, and the palace is now preparing to find a good family for Wang Zhizhi, and she must be married off before the first half of the year.
Wang Zhizhi is not out of the cabinet at this age, and she is already an outlier, and now that this has happened, it seems that she is even more determined to marry her.
The maid sighed and said, "Miss has been making trouble at home several times for this matter, and I don't know what the situation will be in the future." ”
I said to her, "Take good care of me, and tell me if anything." ”
She immediately sighed and answered.
Just as she sent me to the door, I was about to go down, who knew that a car suddenly drove not far away, I thought it was some guest of the Wang family, and was about to go down to the next class, but who knew that the next second a person came down from the car, it was Yuan Lin.
I acted immediately, even Biyu and Qing'er were the same, and the maid next to me was after seeing Yuan Lin. was very happy, waved his hand and shouted: "Second master!" ”
Yuan Lin happened to look at us, and he really couldn't hide.
When he saw me standing at the gate of the palace, he was also stunned.
I quickly came back to my senses, and immediately said to Qing'er, "Open the door." ”
Qing'er reacted and hurriedly opened the car door, and I was about to get into the car, when Yuan Lin suddenly walked up quickly and grabbed me and said, "Qingye, let's talk." ”
I stopped my movements and looked at him, I simply shook his hand, stood in front of him completely and asked with a smile, "What does the second master want to talk to me about?" ”
He didn't care about my unfriendly tone, but apologized to me and said, "I ...... the last incident."
I interrupted him, and I said, "Since it's the last time, it means it's over, and since it's over, don't mention it again." ”
Yuan Lin frowned and said, "But ......"
At this time, the maid who had seen it in Wang Zhizhi's room before ran out in a panic. When Yuan Lin saw it, he immediately stopped her and asked, "What happened?" ”
The maid looked at her, completely dispossessed, and cried and said, "Second master, the young lady is asleep and almost out of breath!" I'm going to the doctor now! ”
"What?" Yuan Lin and I asked at the same time.
Yuan Lin couldn't take care of it so much now, so he immediately let the maid go to the doctor and quickly ran towards the palace, as soon as the news came out, everyone seemed a little panicked.
I stood there for a while, Qing'er asked me if I was going back now, or what, I thought about it, didn't answer her, and quickly ran towards the palace.
When she arrived inside, there was a mess inside, Wang Zhizhi was lying there lifeless, Yuan Lin patted her face, slapped her several times and didn't see her wake up. Just when everyone didn't understand the current situation, suddenly something rolled off Wang Zhizhi's palm, Yuan Lin quickly picked it up, and it turned out to be a medicine bottle!
Yuan Lin knew that something was wrong, so he hugged Wang Zhizhi and shouted to the maid: "Is the doctor here?!" ”
Wang Zhizhi took poison.
When the maids saw this, they all ran out to find a doctor, but fortunately, it didn't take long for the doctor to be invited, and after coming to the room, he quickly put down the medicine box in his hand, sat down on the side of Wang Zhizhi's bed, uncovered her eyes, and immediately took the small bottle and smelled it, and immediately looked shocked.
He instructed Yuan Lin to break open Wang Zhizhi's mouth, quickly poured something into Wang Zhizhi's mouth, poured a whole bottle, and saw that Wang Zhizhi still did not react, so he pinched her person with his hand, and after repeating it several times, Wang Zhizhi suddenly coughed, and then a bunch of unknown liquid squirted out of his mouth.
Then, she woke up, and suddenly pushed the doctor who was holding her head, and the whole person fell on the bed and vomited violently.
She vomited a bunch of unknown liquid, and everyone waited quietly for her to finish vomiting, and before long, she sat down on the edge of the bed with all her strength, and saw that we were all sneering on her pale lips, and then she collapsed on the bed, and never spoke again.
Her thin body was shivering, probably because she had vomited too much just now, and she was holding her stomach with her hands.
No one dared to ask Wang Zhizhi about the situation, and the doctor whispered to Yuan Lin: "It's okay, you don't have to worry." Then he hung the water for her.
After that, Wang Zhizhi lay there with her eyes open, without any desire to survive in her eyes.
Not long after, Wang Zhizhi's father rushed in from outside when he heard about this, and the first thing he did when he came in was not to ask the doctor about the situation, but to stand by her bedside and ask angrily: "You told me, how many times has this been?" If you want to die so much, then let me die far away, don't make the family so excited every time, embarrassing, and our palace can't afford to lose this face now! ”
Yuan Lin persuaded on the side, but Wang Zhizhi's father didn't listen, pointed at her and said: "I'll tell you, this matter has not been discussed, you have worked so hard for him, and now people don't want you, you are not ashamed and go to the door to find it, how can you ever put my face and the face of the palace in your eyes?" I'll find you a family again, you don't have to think about it on the Mu family's side! ”
Wang Zhizhi's father said categorically, but Wang Zhizhi didn't even lift his eyelids.
At this time, Qing'er gently pulled me to the side, I looked back at her, she glanced at Yuan Lin and Wang Zhizhi's father, probably when they didn't notice me. Get out of here quickly.
I thought that Wang Zhizhi was no big problem now, and the relationship between the Mu family and the Wang Yuan family was indeed awkward, so I didn't stay long, so I secretly left here with Qing'er and Biyu.
After leaving the palace, the driver drove us back to Mu's house, I never said a word on the road, I didn't expect the situation to become like this, Wang Zhizhi's temperament is so strong, more than I was at the beginning.
Biyu and Qing'er also knew what I was thinking, and they didn't dare to say more.
After returning to Mu's house in the evening, Mu Jingchi and I had dinner together, Mu Jingchi didn't speak after seeing me come back, put some of my favorite dishes in my bowl, and asked softly, "What's wrong?" Didn't look too happy. ”
He probably didn't know that I had gone to the palace.
I casually took a bite of food and shook my head and said, "I'm just a little tired." ”
He asked, "Cold?" ”
I didn't speak.
He put down his chopsticks and probed between my eyebrows, not feeling any signs of fever, even when he looked at Qing'er and Jasper who were standing on the side.
I knew he was going to ask, so I hurriedly hugged his hand and said, "No, I'm fine, I'm just a little tired after going out to play for a while, it's not a big problem." ”
Mu Jingchi asked at this time: "Where did you go?" ”
I said, "Let the driver take a spin outside." Wandered around the street for a while. ”
Mu Jingchi didn't speak, but just put some dishes in my bowl and said, "Since you're tired, let's finish your meal and go upstairs to rest." ”
I hummed, and I didn't have much to deal with him, and after eating so-so, I was the first to enter the house alone, but not long after entering the house, I found that Biyu and Qing'er didn't come in with me, and I came out of the house again, and grabbed a maid at the door and asked Biyu and Qing'er?
The maid bowed her head and replied, "I was called into the study by my husband." ”
I frowned and asked, "When?" ”
The maid replied, "Just now." ”
I was silent for a moment, didn't speak, and then turned back to my room.
Not long after, Mu Jing came to my room late, I pretended to be asleep, he kissed at the neck, I was still inferior to him in this regard, I felt a little itchy, so I shrunk.
He pulled me back again, his lips down my neck to my collarbone, his burning breath on my skin, making me shiver, and for a long time, I shivered, and grabbed him to kiss my lips.
He stopped and looked at me, and we looked at each other for a few seconds, and then, he took my hand and kissed my palm, and he surprisingly didn't say anything, didn't ask anything, just hugged me in his arms and asked, "Do you want me to sleep with you tonight?" ”
I buried myself in his arms and whispered, "Yes." ”
He laughed, pulled the quilt over us, and said, "Then read a book with me?" ”
Before I could reply, he picked me up from the bed, sat on my lap, picked up a book, wrapped his arms around me from behind, and said in a low voice, "Then I will test you." The wind is strong and the bow is roaring, what is the next sentence of the general's hunting in Weicheng? ”
I smiled proudly and said, "The grass is withered, and the snow is light." ”
He pinched my cheek and asked, "Luoyang City, don't do it for a long time." ”
I replied: "In the past, the snow was like flowers, but now the flowers are like snow!" ”
His eyes were full of smiles, and he turned another page: "The twilight of the year and the yin and yang urge the short scene, and the frost and snow at the end of the world are cold and cold." ”
"The sound of the five drums and horns is tragic, and the shadow of the Three Gorges Galaxy is shaking!"
"As soon as Yantai went, the guests were frightened, and the drums were noisy."
"Thousands of miles, thousands of miles ......"
Mu Jingchi smiled and asked, "What are you?" ”
I couldn't remember for a moment, but he suddenly pressed me down on the bed, grabbed my lips, and gave me a long kiss.
When I was panting from his kiss, he let go of me, put his fingers along my eyebrows, and said as if there were stars hidden in his eyes: "Thousands of miles of cold light and snow are thick, and the dawn on three sides is in danger." Zu Yong's "Wangjimen"
I was a little angry and said, "You did it on purpose, you know that I am not familiar with Zu Yong." ”
He twisted my nose and said, "Whoever asked the gentleman to teach you doesn't listen carefully." ”
Mu Jingchi suddenly threw the book in his hand into my hand and said, "Memorize this collection of poems about winter word for word, and if you don't memorize it, you are not allowed to rest." ”
I stared at him with wide eyes, and he had stopped paying attention to me and was lying down on his own.
I slapped him and said, "How can you do this." I was just about to pull him, but he closed his eyes slightly and said, "Make trouble again, plus copy it again." ”
I looked at him angrily, but he ignored me, and I looked at the book in my hand again, and smacked him so hard that he seemed to be asleep.
I lingered there for a while, and then I told Qing'er that I was hungry and asked her to bring in some food.
Mu Jingchi hates eating in bed the most, but in order to make him unhappy, I threw the book aside and sat cross-legged beside him breaking walnuts.
The walnut didn't move, so I put it in my mouth and chewed it and crunched.
But Mu Jingchi was indifferent, his breathing was steady, and he slept very peacefully.
I felt bored, so I threw the plate with walnuts aside, pulled his arm and said, "Can you give me another chance, if I don't get right this time, can you punish me again?" ”
He opened his eyes, smiled at me and said, "What if I can't do it again." ”
I threw myself into his arms and said, "Then I'll carry it all out." ”
Mu Jingchi raised his eyes slightly: "Really? ”
I nodded vigorously and said, "Really." ”
I turned over again, immediately took the book, and flatteringly handed it to him.
He didn't answer, but casually said: "The Forbidden Immortal is coming, and the green flag is leaning on the spring platform." ”
Me: "......"
He said, "I'll give you a quarter of an hour, and if you come out, you win." ”
Then he glanced at the book in my hand again and prompted me to say, "In this book." ”
He stopped looking at me, swept the walnut shells from the bed, lay down again, and closed his eyes.
A quarter of an hour. A quarter of an hour for me for the whole night is too cost-effective, I don't dare to delay a minute, quickly flip through the book, the book is particularly thick, I need to find it line by line, when I turn to half a quarter of an hour, I am a little drowsy, I looked at Mu Jingchi again, he seems to be asleep, I look at the time that is about to pass, more and more anxious, continue to flip.
I immediately found Jasper who was waiting outside and asked them if they knew what the next sentence of the poem Mu Jingchi had just read was, and Jasper and Qing'er immediately shook their heads at me, looking dazed.
I was a little completely desperate, and after there was no shortcut at all, I continued to flip, and I don't know how long I had been flipping, when I fell asleep. This is when I heard Qing'er calling in my ear: "Miss, Miss." ”
I opened my eyes to see Qing'er, she pointed to the clock on the wall, it's four o'clock, it's already four o'clock! A quarter of an hour has already passed, and it's over.
I immediately leaned over to Mu Jingchi, and whispered in his ear and asked, "Do you not know that the court is falling today, and it is suspected that the forest flowers bloomed last night." ”
As soon as I asked this sentence, Mu Jingchi, who was lying in the quilt, suddenly took me into the quilt, and then he pressed me under him and said, "Little thing, let you listen to Mr. in class." Then he kissed me as if in punishment.
The kiss tickled, I laughed and laughed, he began to take off my clothes, I thought that Qing'er and Jasper were still there, when even laughed and said, "Don't!" ”
But where did he give me a chance, he grabbed my hand, found my lips in the quilt, controlled my head, and kissed me tenderly.
When I struggled out of the quilt in a panic to look outside the tent, where was the shadow of Qing'er and Jasper, and then Mu Jingchi leaned into my body, and when I just screamed out, he grabbed my lips and swallowed all my voices.
When I woke up the next day, it was already ten o'clock in the morning when I opened my eyes, Biyu and Qing'er came in to serve, I was lazy and lay on my body and didn't want to move, but I subconsciously touched the position next to me, and Mu Jing was gone.
I asked sleepily, "What about Mu Jingchi?" ”
Qing'er said, "Mr. has already gotten up, in the study." ”
I suddenly thought of something, and immediately got up from the bed, only to find that my body had been cleaned up, and I had changed into a refreshing pajamas, which was probably changed by Mu Jingchi after the matter was finished last night.
I saw that Qing'er blushed a little, and I was a little embarrassed, so I hurriedly lay down again, and Qing'er asked me, "Do you want to wash first?" ”
I said, "Allow me to sleep for another ten minutes." ”
Then I rolled over, rolled into the covers, and started squinting again. This glance was around eleven o'clock, I got up from the bed by Qing'er and Biyu, and just ran to the door of Mu Jingchi's study, who knew that only a gap was opened, and I saw Wang Shuyi standing in front of Mu Jingchi's table and said: "This morning, the Yuan family led the army to seize all the restaurants, tea houses and gambling houses of the Mu family in Jinling, and even the wharf was sealed, and the Yuan family ordered that no ships were allowed to enter the port again. ”
Mu Jingchi listened and did not speak.
However, Wang Shuyi said again: "The Yuan family is a warlord family, and now Jinling is under the jurisdiction of the Yuan family, so naturally all the properties of the Mu family should be carried out under his jurisdiction, sir, it seems that Yuan Chengjun does not plan to give up on this matter?" ”
Mu Jingchi sneered and asked, "It seems that this is right." ”
Wang Shuyi said: "Yes, the attitude of the Yuan family is obviously that Mr. Wei didn't give him the steps that day. ”
Mu Jingchi said lightly: "For me, there is no difference between the business of Jinling City and the none, but he Yuan Chengjun is different, the entire grain store in Jinling is mine, and he has sealed all of it." How did he think the people of Jinling City should live? ”
Mu Jingchi laughed, picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip of tea.
Just as I was listening there secretly, a person suddenly came up downstairs, walking straight towards Mu Jingchi's study, I immediately left and walked to another door, after the person stopped at the door of the study, he raised his hand and knocked on the door twice and said, "Sir, Steward Zhou is looking for it." ”
"Steward Zhou?" This sentence was issued by Wang Shuyi.
The servant said at the door, "Yes, he has been discharged from the hospital, and he wants to see the gentleman by name." ”
There was silence for a long time inside, and then Mu Jingchi said, "Let him go back." ”
But the servant said, "Steward Zhou is kneeling outside the house now, saying that you will always kneel there when you see him." ”
There was silence in the study again.
Then Mu Jingchi walked out of it with Wang Shuyi, he paced downstairs, the servant followed him, not long after they went downstairs, I also followed, and sure enough, I saw Steward Zhou kneeling outside the gate of the Mu family.
Mu Jingchi stood still at the gate for a while. Looking at him kneeling outside, he asked, "Old Zhou, what do you mean by this?" ”
Steward Zhou bowed like Mu Jing and said, "Sir, I'm here to work." ”
Mu Jingchi said expressionlessly: "I have already told you, you are old, you don't need to come to the Mu family to take care of things, I have found a place for you, and you can enjoy your old age in peace." ”
Mu Jingchi didn't seem to want to talk nonsense with Steward Zhou, turned around and was about to leave, Steward Zhou knelt outside and continued: "I know why you want me to go back to retire, it's just because I don't speak well, but sir, since ancient times, loyal ministers have been loyal to their ears, you should understand this truth, the master once said a word to me before he died, he said, do his father's duty for him." ”
Mu Jingchi stopped, and he said again: "Before his death, the master gave me a thing, if one day, you can no longer listen to me, let me hand him over to you." ”
Steward Zhou was holding a letter, and he handed the envelope to the maid on the side.
Soon, the maid took it and walked towards Mu Jingchi, she stood beside Mu Jingchi with her head down, and whispered, "Sir." ”
Mu Jingchi directly pulled the letter out of the maid's hand, then opened the letter and read it with low eyes.
I don't know what kind of letter it is, the next second the letter was pinched in the palm of Mu Jingchi's hand, for a long time, he slowly closed his eyes, as if he was compromising something, and just whispered: "Get up." ”
He looked no further at anyone, went to the candle at the table, lit the old letter, watched it burn to ashes, and walked upstairs without saying a word.
No one knew what was in that letter, from that day on, Steward Zhou went back to the Mu family again, and the days began to be as usual, the only difference was that Mu Jingchi was not in a very good mood since that day, he didn't lose his temper much, and people who are not familiar with him may not see any changes in him at all.
But familiar people know that the amount of agarwood in his study is twice as much, and when the maid goes in to serve tea at noon, her hand accidentally shakes, and the cup of tea falls on the table, and the maid was killed by Mu Jingchi in the afternoon.
Everyone began to tremble, not daring to slack off, even people like Wang Shuyi.
In the evening, Biyu came to me crying and begging me, saying that I would bring tea for her and go into the study, but she said that she really didn't dare to go in, it was too terrible.
Now the maids of Mu Mansion can't wait to be as far away from Mu Jingchi as they are. Jasper is naturally no exception, seeing that Jasper is afraid of this, I naturally helped her with this, and brought tea into Mu Jingchi's study for her, he was dealing with things.
I closed the door and placed the teacup gently on his table, and he suddenly said, "Come here." ”
As soon as I stopped, he knew it was me, so I obediently walked over to him, he held me in his arms, buried his face in my neck, I didn't dare to move for a moment, just whispered, "Do you have a headache?" ”
He snorted lazily.
I said, "Shall I rub it for you?" ”
He hummed again.
I rubbed it carefully for him, and he sighed comfortably.
I don't know how long it took, but he whispered in my arms, "Hello." ”
I hummed softly.
He said, "How can you be so well-behaved lately. ”
Then he looked up at me and stroked my face, his gaze lingering on his face, so loving.
I smiled happily and said, "I also memorized that book of poems, shall I recite it to you?" ”
The corners of his lips curled into a smile and said, "Let me check and check." ”
I said: "One farewell to the door and three changes to the fire, the end of the world is full of red dust." ”
Mu Jing didn't move.
"Fei Peng is far away, and he has a cup in his hand."
He still didn't move, and my fingers stroked his eyebrows: "Heaven and short karma, it is easy to gather and disperse. ”
