Chapter 74: No wonder he was so noble and unwilling to accept gifts
"Thank you, Little Heavenly Master."
Luo Alan was very moved, and suddenly looked deeply at Mu Xi and said, "Actually, you are very similar to someone I know, but I can't remember who it is for a while, and I have been away for too many years, and my memory is getting worse and worse." ”
"If you can't think of it, you don't want to, let it be."
Mu Xi thought that maybe it was the relatives of the original owner, but she didn't care, after all, her nominal father and mother were long gone.
"Well, the only thing I can't forget is my enemy!"
Luo Alan disappeared in front of Mu Xi, probably because tonight's events made her feel very depressed, so she wanted to go out to breathe.
Mu Xi didn't care about her, this Luo Alan is actually not bad-hearted, and it is really not easy to maintain this kindness after encountering such a miserable thing.
If you are a person, I am afraid that you have already become an evil ghost who does all kinds of evil.
Mu Xi thought that Mrs. Chen would have to wait for a few days, but she didn't expect Mrs. Chen to be very efficient, but one day, she came to Mu Mansion to invite her personally.
"Miss Mu, I'm going to bother you again."
"It's okay, it's just that Miss Chen really thought about going together?"
Mu Xi didn't expect Chen Ling to be so persistent, she couldn't listen to persuasion, and she must follow Mu Xi and them.
is probably afraid that Mrs. Chen will hurt her sweetheart, and she is really infatuated with that sweetheart.
"Yes."
Chen Ling's expression was a little indifferent, probably remembering what Mu Xi refused to help before.
She said that this kind of thing can't be said casually, and simple refusal is so hateful, not to mention saying bad things about others, Mu Xi twitched her mouth and didn't talk to Chen Ling again.
Mrs. Chen hurriedly took Mu Xi's hand and said apologetically: "Xiao Ling was carried away by love, Miss Mu must not mind." ”
"It's okay."
Mu Xi smiled and didn't speak again, and Qiong Zhi handed Mu Xi a snack, "Girl, you're hungry." ”
Several people were a little silent along the way, Mu Xi didn't ask where the end was, Chen Ling opened her mouth a few times to speak, and was finally swallowed back into her stomach.
An hour later, Mu Xi and the others came to a small village below Nanxian County, looking at the low thatched house in the village, Chen Ling's face rarely changed.
She was wearing a scarf and quietly looking out through the window, and Mrs. Chen sighed.
"Xiaoling, you see, if you marry in this kind of place, how do you get used to living?"
"It turns out that Ruoyun lives in such a place, no wonder he is so noble and unwilling to accept the gift I give."
Chen Ling felt sorry for her sweetheart, and made Mrs. Chen angry, this is her husband's sister, if she is her own sister, I am afraid that an ear scraper has already been fanned.
It's really a chicken-and-duck story!
"Xiaoling, my mother will leave the matter to me with full authority, don't get involved in the things that will happen."
Mrs. Chen suppressed the anger in her heart and tried her best to calm down.
Chen Ling pursed her lips, obviously hesitating, "Then sister-in-law, you should be careful when you speak, if you are thoughtful, you are a very face-saving person." ”
"Got it!"
Mrs. Chen rolled her eyes angrily, and got out of the carriage with Muxi, and in front of the carriage was a low thatched house.
There was a sound of a woman beating and scolding a child in the house, and the sound of it made people's hearts tremble.
"This mother is too ruthless, that child is crying heartbreakingly."
Qiong Zhi muttered, touching Mu Xi's serious expression, and then shut up.
Mrs. Chen's maid knocked on the door, and the door was quickly opened, and a woman of about eighteen or nineteen years old came out.
She doesn't look bad, her hair is pulled up like a woman, she should have been married, the woman's pretty face is dyed with impatience, and when she sees the appearance of the people outside, her face changes suddenly.
"What's the matter with the nobles?"
Her smile was a little flattering, probably because Mrs. Chen was dressed very luxuriously, and she was accompanied by a maid.
Mrs. Chen's maid Lanzhi spoke decently, "Our wife is a little thirsty, can you buy some water to drink in your house?" ”
Laneige took out a piece of broken silver, and the woman immediately took it with a smile, "Of course, of course, please come in." ”
A few people followed the woman in, and saw a boy about two or three years old in the courtyard lying pitifully on the ground.
He was thin, probably hungry, with his head bowed, like a soulless puppet.
"Is this your child?"
Mrs. Chen is a mother, so naturally she can't see such a scene, and her heart instantly softened.
The woman laughed and said: "It's my son, it's just a little naughty, I'll punish him, Madame, come in, I have warm water." ”
"What's your baby's name?"
Mrs. Chen opened her mouth casually, as if she was just asking casually, and the woman laughed:
"He Youcai, his father is a scholar, the only talent in our village, and the name he takes is also the most talented in the village, and the people in the village envy him."
Speaking of her husband, Mrs. He was full of pride, but she didn't know that the handkerchief in Mrs. Chen's hand was about to be crushed!
The one surnamed He actually already has a lady!
She thought that this was He Xiucai's brother's daughter-in-law, but she didn't think that he was already married, and she still missed her sister.
Mrs. Chen's gaffe made Mrs. He a little strange, and Mu Xi hurriedly opened her mouth to change the topic.
"Isn't there only one Xiucai in your village? We thought he was unmarried. ”
"That must be someone else's nonsense, if it weren't for my mother's sponsorship of my husband's study, he might not be able to be admitted to Xiucai."
He Niangzi's tone was a little proud, and she put the two notched bowls in front of Mu Xi and them, and the hospitality was quite rough.
However, Mrs. Chen didn't have the heart to pay attention to these, and only pretended to be curious and asked:
"Then your husband is quite powerful, after all, it is not easy to show off in ten miles and eight towns."
When He Niangzi talked about her husband's arrival, she was chattering, and her face was full of excitement.
"That's not it, my husband is still teaching the children in the village school, he ......"
"Lady."
A cold voice interrupted He Niangzi's words, it turned out to be He Xiucai who came back from class in the school.
He was dressed in cloth clothes, and he looked a little more generous in this poor countryside.
Mu Xi raised his eyes and looked over, although this person's facial features were well matched, but his head was plump and his heart was non-toxic, and he was a vicious and terrible person.
I saw He Xiucai smile and ask his lady, "Lady, who are these people?" ”
"Oh, it's the noble man who came to buy some water to drink."
He Niangzi smiled flatteringly, "Madam, my husband is very talented, do you still have children in your house who need to be taught."
Our husband can come to the door to be a master, and he will definitely teach your child's homework very well. ”
"Hugh is talking nonsense, there must already be a master in Madame's house."
He Xiucai was reprimanding his own lady, but he looked at Mrs. Chen with a little expectation.
As everyone knows, Mrs. Chen was about to die of anger at this time, so she got up suddenly.
"I still have something to do, let's go first!"
After speaking, even Mu Xi couldn't take care of it, and strode towards the courtyard, which made the He family a little confused.
