Chapter 9 Brother
Mu Genniang carried a bag of things in her hand, avoiding the gaze of the people in the house, and she quietly walked towards Jiang Wanmu's courtyard. Outside the courtyard gate, she carefully looked around several times before she dared to gently push the door on the side of the courtyard and gently stepped into the courtyard. The snow was falling, and there was a feeling of depression in the yard.
Mu Genniang looked at her eyes, and she remembered in her heart that Jiang Wanmu was now by her side, and there was only an ignorant child by her side, so she was a little sour. She glanced down at the burden in her hand, and a cheerful smile appeared on her face. She stepped on the snow as gently as she could, and walked towards Jiang Wanmu's room. Ji Yan heard the movement in the courtyard, she quickly opened the door, stood up and looked out, and when she saw Mugen's mother, she was surprised and stared at her in a daze.
Ji Yan has been here in Jiang Wanmu for nearly two months, from morning to night, in this courtyard, only the woman who delivered the food came. And the woman never had much to say, and always put down her meal and left quickly without looking back. Seeing Ji Yan's surprised appearance, Mu Gen couldn't help laughing, and whispered to her, "Ji Yan, I'm coming to see Miss." Don't mention it to anyone else, I'm here to see Miss. ”
Ji Yan listened to Mugen's mother's words, covered his mouth with his hand, and said in a small voice: "Auntie, I understand." My mother taught me not to talk about Miss to the outside world. After hearing this, Mugen Niang stepped forward, reached out and stroked her head, and said, "Ji Yan, you are a good boy." Your young lady is a good person, you treat her well, and your young lady will not know it. ”
Ji Yan put down the hand covering his mouth, nodded vigorously, and said in a low voice: "Miss, she has never scolded me, and she has never pinched me." The young lady didn't need me to serve her, saying that I was young. The work in the yard, the young lady also said that I was too young to do it, so she did it slowly. I heard Xiaohua say that the young ladies will scold people, they don't hit people, but they will reach out and hurt people hard. My young lady is a rare good person. ”
Mugen Niang listened to Ji Yan speak like this, her eyes sparkled and she nodded with a smile and said, "Hmm." Then I'll go talk to the young lady, and you can go back to your room by yourself. I heard your mother say that Ji Yan is very good at embroidery now? Ji Yan blushed a little embarrassedly, looked up at Mugen's mother and said, "I will only teach two tricks from my mother." The eldest lady's sister is extremely beautifully embroidered. ”
Jiang Wanmu heard the whispers outside in the room, and she stopped moving her hands and feet. Thinking of Mugen's mother's concern for herself, she quickly picked up the literacy book sent by Lian Zimo, opened it and put it on the table. She sat there upright, such a dignified sitting posture was Mugen's favorite side of the mother. Every time she saw Jiang Wanmu sitting like this, she would smile with relief and say, "Miss doesn't need to be taught, this sitting posture and generous expression are impeccable." ”
When Jiang Wanmu heard this, she smiled slightly every time, and her demeanor was extremely calm. provoked Mugen's mother to praise again: "Miss, I see that the eldest lady laughs, and she doesn't have the same taste as you." Although Aunt Yu has changed now, I heard that when she was at home in the past, she was praised by everyone in Beijing. Miss was like Aunt Yu at that time, but she will definitely be better than her in the future. ”
Jiang Wanmu doesn't know how to talk to others, she remembers her past life. In his previous life, when he was bored during the holidays, he specialized in etiquette training. Although the behavior is not as standard as the ancients did, it can still deceive some people by pretending occasionally. And in this life, after she was reborn, she took advantage of the limited opportunity to carefully observe the words and deeds of her grandmother and eldest lady. She knows that everything changes and the etiquette she received in her previous life can still be used in general, and as for the details, she needs to carefully observe and study carefully in the future.
Mu Genniang pushed the door in, and saw Jiang Wanmu looking up with a smile, her eyes were calm and smiling. Mu Genniang rushed in happily and said to Jiang Wanmu: "Miss, you look like this, you are so dignified and generous. This is the best compliment that Mugen's mother can think of, Jiang Wanmu smiled after hearing this, stood up and said to her: "Nurse, it snows so much, what do you have to say, call Brother Mugen." ”
Mu Genniang listened to these heartwarming words, chuckled, and felt that when her young lady was three years old, her headbutt was good, and she hit everyone smart. She said softly, "The snow is so heavy that no one walks outside the yard." Your brother Mugen is following your father to have something, and I'll come and talk to you. This bag contains the coat worn by your brother Mugen, and a few soybean nuggets, and when you are hungry at night, you can go to the place where you boil water, burn the fire and bury it to eat. ”
After Mu Gen Niang was personally transferred from Shi Niang, she worked hard to teach Jiang Wanmu to do some daily things. Since Jiang Wanmu was three years old, she has always wanted to do it herself, but she was worried that it would be too eye-catching, so she couldn't bear to do it. Now Mugen's mother takes the initiative to teach, and she learns extremely fast. In addition, there are only two of them in the yard, so she doesn't have to put up an empty shelf for the young lady, and directly calls Mugen Niang as 'wet nurse'. In addition to her illiterate, she also taught her to move needlework in private.
Jiang Wanmu is happy, she has heard that the second lady of the Jiang family often went out to play the year before last. She once said directly to Mugen's mother, 'Nurse, I want to secretly go out of the house and go outside?' Mu Genniang was a little stunned after hearing this, but there was joy in her eyes, she nodded and said: "This is a big deal, I want to go back to discuss with your father, and besides, if you want to go out, you can't have no one around you." ”
Jiang Wanmu didn't want anyone to follow her, she didn't want to act to attract the attention of the Jiang family. She thought about it and said bluntly: "Nurse, lend me Brother Mugen's old clothes, I will go out as a man, and no one will follow me." Mugen didn't speak after hearing this. Two days later, Mugen quietly came to her yard and said to her, "Sister, my brother has brought his own clothes, and after you have changed, I will take you out through the back door." ”
Mugen is still young, and his father and mother only gave birth to him, and he has often come to the yard to see his mother since he was a child. After Jiang Wanmu woke up at that time, most of the time, she stayed alone in the room. Little Mugen knew that he would get out of the way, so he quietly came into the house, stuffed some food into her mouth, and coaxed her, "Miss, eat more." I'll take you out to play. "After a lot of times, Jiang Wanmu thought that this child was good to herself, and under the advantage that everyone knew her stupidity, she clamored for him to call her 'sister'.
Mu Gen knew about Jiang Wanmu's changes earlier than everyone else. But he is smart, he is afraid that Jiang Wanmu will be hurt, and he doesn't even tell the truth to his father. The two of them get along in private, and Mugen has long been accustomed to calling Jiang Wanmu 'sister-in-law'. I also like to hear her call her brother, in his little heart, this is his own sister, and he shares the milk of his mother, and the sister who grew up.
Jiang Wanmu remembered that she hadn't seen Mugen for a while, and heard him follow the adults out of the house, so she asked a little worriedly: "Nurse, how much snow is it, my brother is still young, so he has to follow his father?" Now that Mu Gen's mother heard Jiang Wanmu call Brother Mu Gen, she would not be as anxious as she had heard it a few times, so she was so anxious that she said to Jiang Wanmu: "Miss, your brother is the eldest young master of the Jiang family, the second young master, how can Mu Gen be your brother?" ”
Jiang Wanmu thought about the two people she had only heard of, and said to Mugen's mother at that time: "They haven't seen me, and they won't treat me better than my brother treats me." Mugen's mother still shook her head, but Jiang Wanmu said to her: "Nurse, I call it that in private, when you go out, I will call you from Mugen's family, and I won't harm my brother, I'll call him Mugen." My brother is outside, and he also calls me Miss Three, but when the two of us are around, he calls me sister. "Mugen's mother can only acquiesce.
