Chapter 53: Gift-giving, co-optation

"Sure enough, my cousin doesn't like my heart, hey...... It's really sad for Jin'er, we are all a family, what else do we have with each other, I have it, take it to my cousin's aunt, what's the point! Bai Mujian pretended to be sad, as if Mu Xinping rejected her, which really broke her heart.

Seeing this, Mu Xinping glanced at the jewels in the box again, and her heart warmed up, only saying that this Ning Guogong is really a rich family, and the things that the eldest lady gave away casually were all things that she couldn't see in that small place. It's a pity that she's just a passerby, no matter how glorious and rich she is, it has nothing to do with her!

Without waiting for Mu Xinping to speak, Bai Mu Hibiscus stuffed the box into the hand of her girl Yan'er, and said, "Aunt cousin, you just accept it, don't see Jin'er, speaking of these things, your mother should have prepared a copy for you, after all, you are your grandmother's guest, and you have come all the way to join us, how can you be wronged?" Now it's okay for me to make up for my mother? ”

When Mu Xinping heard her say this, she also secretly blamed the Lu family for being too stingy, deliberately seeing that she was shabby and not ready properly, or Bai Hibiscus had a heart, so she had a lot of good feelings for Bai Hibiscus in her heart, and looked at her with a touched face and said: "In this case, I will be cheeky and accept it and let you bother!" ”

Bai Mujin smiled happily and shook her hand to show his closeness: "That's right, we are so good, where do you need to be polite, grandmother looks at you dressed brightly, and her face is also bright!" ”

Mu Xinping nodded, thinking that Bai Mujian was really a delicate person, not only knew how to take care of her mood, but also flattered her aunt by the way, no wonder her aunt was so attentive to her.

After parting, the two made an appointment to meet in Tangli Garden on the second day, and happily dispersed. Bai Mu Hibiscus saw Mu Xinping leave Jinlan Garden with brisk steps, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

The magpie saw the person walking away, and said suspiciously: "Miss, those rouge gouache and pearl hairpins are all you just get, and you haven't used them yet, so you don't feel sorry for her!" ”

Bai Mujin looked at her as if she was more distressed than herself, tapped the magpie's head, and said, "You girl, when did your eyelids become so shallow?" I have never seen these things in my eyes, and they are of great use to her! ”

Mama Rui nodded and said, "Indeed, the master of these things will have as many as he wants in the future!" ”

When the magpie saw that they all said this, he stopped talking, but he still couldn't figure out why the eldest lady was so good to that Mu girl, was it just to please the old lady? In her opinion, Miss Namu is not a very good person, although on the surface she seems to be weak.

"You girl, you have been with Miss for so long, and your brain is still so rigid, you just listen to Miss, can Miss be more stupid than you?" The mandarin duck scolded with a grin.

The magpie thought that it was also this ceremony, scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, "I'm sorry Miss, it's the slave who thinks badly, hehe......"

Bai Mujin shook her head, she didn't mean to blame, she also knew that the mandarin duck and the magpie wanted to protect her, for fear that she would suffer a little loss.

While he was talking, Bai Muchen came over from outside, and as soon as they met, he worriedly checked Bai Mujian's situation, and asked anxiously, "Sister, are you okay?" ”

"What can I do?" Bai Mu asked with a smile.

Bai Muchen breathed a sigh of relief, stroked his chest, and said, "Fortunately, my sister is fine, I heard that you have a situation in Xiangguo Temple, and they actually want to harm you!" ”

Bai Mu Hibiscus frowned and asked unhappily, "Who told you about this?" Which ignorant slave chews his tongue, you don't have to listen to the nonsense of those villains! ”

Bai Muchen looked at his sister puzzled, then looked at the maid Xiaolu behind him, and said as if he had an understanding: "Oh, it's Chen'er who is too careful, I think we are all a family, how can we harm my sister!" ”

Bai Mujin nodded happily, touched Bai Muchen's head, and said, "Chen'er is really smart, by the way, my sister brought you a good thing from Xiangguo Temple, let's go in and take a look, okay?" ”

Bai Muchen glanced at Bai Hibiscus and knew that she had something to say to herself, so she said happily: "Okay, I heard that my sister has met Zen Master Mingyuan, you have to tell me how the Zen master gave you a good idea!" ”

Bai Mujin smiled, did not answer him, but said to Xiao Lu and Mama Ying, who came with Bai Muchen: "You go down and have some refreshments, I have a new cook here, and the snacks are delicious!" ”

Mama Ying was interested, and thanked her with a smile, Xiao Lu glanced at Bai Muchen with some reluctance, as if she wanted him to take her into the back room, so she said obediently: "The slave is not hungry, and there is no one to serve the eldest young master, I'm afraid it's not good!" Besides, the slave also wants to hear interesting stories about Xiangguo Temple? ”

Without waiting for Bai Mujin to speak, the mandarin duck glanced at her and sneered: "What are you?" It's also worth letting the eldest lady tell you interesting things, there are me and magpies in the house, can you still be wronged by the eldest young master, there is nothing to see! ”

Xiao Lu was scolded by her, her face suddenly turned pale, her lips were shriveled, and she looked at Bai Muchen with a look of great grievance: "The eldest young master, the slave and maid also care about you, but you are scolded like this, no matter how lowly the slave and maid are, they are also the slaves of the eldest young master, and if you are a slave and maid like this, I don't know if Sister Mandarin Duck has taken you in her eyes!" ”

Bai Mujin looked at Xiao Lu coldly, completely ignoring her attitude of taking the initiative to seek death, and sneered: "It's my order to let you go down for refreshments, when will it be your turn to put your beak in the master's words?" Dare to sow discord in front of me and Brother Chen, do you think your life is too comfortable? ”

Bai Muchen also had a cold face, and said angrily: "I don't know the rules at all, you will do whatever my sister tells you to do!" ”

Xiao Lu bit her lip and didn't dare to speak, but she thought in her heart that now the eldest lady was no longer as easy to bully as before, and she could only restrain herself, but when she thought of the things that Mrs. and the second young master had explained, she kept an eye on the eldest young master, if the eldest young master heard what the eldest lady said today, she wouldn't know how to explain to Madame when she turned around.

Bai Mujin ignored her, took Bai Muchen's hand and went into the inner room, the magpie was guarding outside, and only Mama Rui and Mandarin Duck were waiting in the room.

The mandarin duck brought two plates of delicate snacks, a plate of golden bean cakes and a plate of jujube paste cakes, which are Bai Muchen's favorite foods on weekdays. Bai Muchen was not restrained when he came to Bai Mujian, and happily took the dim sum and ate it.

Bai Mujin was also full of joy when she saw him like this, and now the person she cares about in the world is this younger brother, and she will definitely protect him in this life and give him a bright future.

Bai Muchen saw that his sister looked at him thoughtfully, and there seemed to be some sadness in her eyes, so she put down the snack in her hand and asked cautiously, "Sister, why do you look unhappy?" Did you suffer a grievance in Xiangguo Temple? ”

Bai Mujian shook his head, showed a rare real smile, and said, "No, no one will want to give us any more grievances from now on!" ”

Bai Muchen is not a stupid person, he naturally heard the deep meaning of Bai Mujian's words, pursed his lips, twisted his eyebrows, and said: "Sister, don't hold anything in your heart, I have grown up and can protect you!" I don't want to see you struggling with them alone, and Chen'er feels sorry for you! ”

Bai Mujin didn't expect Bai Muchen to say such a thing to her, she was a little stunned for a while, her eyes were slightly astringent, for the first time since she was reborn, she really wanted to cry, but after all, she didn't cry, but smiled, her brother is like her brother Xun, as sensible, as well-behaved and cute.

"Fool, you just have to study hard, you don't have to worry about the rest, my sister is not bitter, and she is not bitter if she can live!" Bai Mujin gently stroked Bai Muchen's face, after all, he was still a ten-year-old child, how could she bear to let him be contaminated with those filthy things, although he should not be innocent and pure, but he should not be exposed to the darkness too much.

It's good to leave all the dirt and filth to her, anyway, for a person who crawls out of hell, it is impossible to get rid of such a fate in her life, she is not afraid of the dark, she is not afraid of blood, she is only afraid that she will not be able to slash the enemy!

When Bai Muchen heard this, he was not happy at all, but had a sense of frustration that he was not admitted, and said with a frowning face: "Sister, don't you believe that Chen'er can protect you?" I can, I will! ”

"I know, but the man's ambition is in all directions, don't bother for the dirt of this back house, you remember, you are the eldest son and grandson of the Ningguo Mansion, you will be the Ningguo Duke in the future, what you have to do is to make yourself the best inheritor, and when that day comes, you can spread your wings and really protect me, understand?" Bai Mujin solemnly warned Bai Muchen that she didn't want him to become just like a woman, and give up what a man should really do.

Bai Muchen seemed to have an epiphany, he stood up suddenly, looked at Bai Mujian, and looked serious: "Sister, I understand, don't worry, I will never let you down, one day I will let you never have to be afraid, let you live a peaceful and joyful life, and never give others a chance to hurt you!" ”

He suddenly understood that what he could help Bai Mu Hibiscus was not to help her to intrigue with her stepmother and two younger siblings, but to strengthen himself and protect his sister in a man's way, because in the future, he was the only backing that Bai Mu Hibiscus could rely on!

Bai Hibiscus smiled with satisfaction, her younger brother was so smart, he could see through a little. He understands better than himself, if she hadn't suffered a disaster in her previous life, she wouldn't have understood how the mother and son were like a femme fatale, and they still poured out their hearts and lungs for them, but Bai Muchen had always been wary of those three hypocrites.

It's a pity that after she left Baifu, Bai Muchen, who was even involved, was completely rejected by Bai Shizu and grandmother, so that the Lu family had a chance to take advantage of it and let him die

Presumably, in his previous life, the reason why he was willing to become the gentleman that the Lu family expected was because he knew that he was too weak to fight the three of Lu's mother and son, his father was eccentric, his sister was confused, and his grandmother couldn't count on it, so he could only endure it, but the Lu family didn't even let go of him, the eldest son who could no longer inherit the family business, and he had to kill them all before he stopped!

The hatred in her heart was bubbling up, like a poisonous insect biting her heart, every time she tried to suppress these hatreds, she had to exert her strength, and she couldn't act rashly, but thinking that Lu and her two children were living well in this world, and there was a chance to make a comeback at any time, she felt unbearable.

But no, she had to torture them slowly until one day she could destroy them completely......
