Chapter 9 Beatings
Mu Jiu buckled Mu Zhiwei as a shield to dodge the family members and mothers-in-law who came to arrest her, and smiled faintly: "I haven't been forced to such a point for many years, Mu Zhiwei, you are very good, you have a calculus or not, and it really caught me off guard, but it's not over yet." ”
Mu Zhiwei was probably scared silly, and she trembled vigorously when she was caught by Mu Jiu.
The lord of Xiang County shouted angrily at those people: "What are you still standing for? Take her down for me. ”
Someone came quickly, walked into the door quickly, watched a room of chickens and dogs jumping, and shouted: "What are you doing?" ”
The person who came was the head of this family, Prime Minister Mu Tingzhi, who was in his early forties, with good facial features, a mustache, and a civilian court uniform.
"Xiangye!" The housekeeper Kang An immediately stepped forward and explained the cause and effect.
Everyone thought that the prime minister would immediately order someone to catch Mu Jiu, Mu Tingzhi frowned, looked at Mu Jiu, and asked, "Mu Jiu, have you pushed anyone?" ”
Mu Jiu had already let go of Mu Zhiwei and stood up straight: "No." ”
Although Prime Minister Mu Cheng doesn't want to admit Mu Jiu's daughter, he has always been in an indifferent attitude towards her, she is stereotyped, pedantic, and has a big manly idea, but he has an advantage, that is, fairness, before becoming the prime minister, he served as the secretary of Dali Temple, and he is used to trying cases, he talks about evidence in everything, and he will never wronged people for no reason.
"She's lying......" Lord Xiang shouted, but suddenly looked at Mu Jiu looking up at her, very calm, not at all wanting to be the gaze of a person who was pointed out by Qianfu, but it was just a calm glance, but it made Lord Xiang feel a chill in his back, as if he was being targeted by some monster, and a sentence was stuck in his throat.
Mu Tingzhi glanced around: "Since it is said that Mu Jiutui is a person, then who will testify that he saw Mu Jiu Tui with his own eyes?" ”
In an instant, he was dumb, if he really wanted to say it, no one really saw it with his own eyes, it happened very quickly, and the reason why Mu Jiu was identified was all because of Mu Zhiwei's roar.
A little maid in Tsing Yi came out of the corner: "Slave maid...... The slave and maid saw it, and ...... It's the third lady who pushes the person......."
Mu Zhiwei jumped up in fright: "I didn't, you talk nonsense, you slandered me." ”
Mu Jiu stood in the corner next to him, away from the battlefield, Mu Zhiwei was suddenly isolated, and instantly panicked: "No, you believe me, it's not me who pushes, it's Mu Jiu who pushes, I ......"
Another maid also stood up: "The slave also seems to have seen that it was the third lady who pushed it, because Miss Nine didn't move at all." ”
"I didn't, you, who gave you the guts to slander Miss Ben?" Mu Zhiwei didn't expect that someone would dare to identify her when she saw it, just now she was afraid that she would be considered weak-hearted if she ran away, so she came along, but she didn't expect that someone would jump out to identify her: "Believe it or not, I'll tear your mouth apart?" ”
No one answered her, but the way she looked, she was obviously weak-hearted, and the truth was clear at a glance.
The county lord of Xiang was dumbfounded, didn't he say that it was Mu Jiu? How did she become Mu Zhiwei?
The eldest lady and Mu Ruolan are both angry, they hate Mu Jiu, but Mu Jiu is a humble existence in their eyes that can be pinched to death at will, whatever Mu Jiu does, they can punish her as much as they want, but if it is Mu Zhiwei, she is the daughter of the second room, because of her heavy status, so the anger and hatred are even heavier, after all, the grievances between the big house and the second room are not a day or two.
The eldest lady sneered: "Okay, Mu Zhiwei, where did we Ruolan offend you, you want to harm her like this?" ”
Mu Zhiwei cried urgently: "Auntie, you listen to my explanation, I didn't push it, it's all Mu Jiu, she made people wronged me, I can prove that she pushed it." ”
Prime Minister Mu Cheng didn't want to listen to Mu Zhiwei's quibbles, and his face was so cold that water dripped out: "Kang An, take her to the ancestral hall and let the second master come to see me." ”
Steward Kang hurriedly beckoned people to go up: "Third Miss, please." ”
Mu Jiu had already retreated to the edge of the door, and wanted to leave quietly, but he didn't want the old lady to keep staring at her, her eyes fell on her gloomily, gloomy and disgusted: "Take Mu Jiu with you, I don't know how to respect or respect my elders, kneel down for me, and copy the family rules and female precepts a hundred times." ”
Mu Jiu's footsteps paused, slowly turned around, his sleeves floated in the breeze, and he smiled indifferently, revealing an indescribable mockery: "The old lady said that she laughed, Mu Jiu is just a concubine born to a mere dancing girl, where is she worthy of entering the ancestral hall of your Mu family?" Besides, there is no such person as Mu Jiu on the genealogy of the Mu family, even if I kneel, they will not recognize it. ”
Mu Tingzhi, who was standing on the side, was instantly angry and slapped over: "Bastard, who gave you the courage to talk to your grandmother like this?" ”
Mu Jiu raised his hand to block Mu Tingzhi's hand, raised his eyes, and looked indifferent: "Xiangye, don't be wrong, there are only old ladies and grandmothers here...... Does the old lady recognize it? ”
"Smack."
The wind was howling, and Mu Jiu didn't retract it in front of Mu Tingzhi's hand, and slapped the old lady's crutches on his shoulder.
The hundred-year-old sandalwood crutches, with raised carvings, hit down heavily, and Mu Jiuyi, who was in pain in an instant, stumbled and almost didn't fall down, hitting the acupoint.
The old lady finally hit someone, took back her crutches and knocked it twice on the ground, and snorted coldly: "If I don't teach you a lesson, you don't know that the sky is thick, but you have a right sentence, my Mu family's ancestral hall does not allow you to defile it, and you won't let me go?" ”
Mu Jiu covered his shoulders and took a step back and leaned against the door, looking at the old lady who was disgusted with her and watching something disgusting, what was rolling in her heart, and those memories that she deliberately forgot and ignored suddenly poured out, and in an instant, she almost didn't swallow her.
Eventually, without saying a word, she turned to leave.
The old lady's stick hit her very hard, and Mu Jiu covered her shoulders and staggered when she walked, but no one chased her.
