This time, the Qin family didn't dare to play tricks on it. After two days, the calculation was clear, and the total was one hundred and thirty taels. Mu Qing happily gave the money, and said with a smile: "We are all a family, and there is a mother at the top, the second brother and sister don't need to take special care of us. From now on, we will pay as much money as you and the other two. That'll be fine!"
Qin's breath suddenly became stuffy again, lingering over and over again, unable to get out.
She gritted her teeth secretly with hatred in her heart: Okay, good Mu Qing, you really are a tiger with a smile on your face, and you gave someone a mouthful without making a fuss, which made her unable to speak again on this matter!
"In this way-would it be too wronged for elder brother and sister-in-law?" Qin forced a smile.
"How could it be!" Mu Qing smiled softly: "We are all one family, as it should be, this is only fair! Otherwise, we would feel uneasy..."
These words sounded like she was talking about herself, but Qin Shi always felt that she was talking about her, and felt more and more harsh, so she nodded and said: "Alright, let's do it like this!"
Qin Shi returned to Jingfangtang angrily, feeling that her whole body was not well. What a Mu Qing, she really missed it!
Seeing that her mother was very angry, Lu Yiqing said calmly from the side: "The eldest aunt is the eldest aunt after all, mother, you are the younger sister-in-law, why bother to compete with her? Isn't there an old lady in our house..."
Qin's eyes lit up, she thought for a moment and smiled, "It's still my Qing'er who can see clearly!"
Mrs. Lu listened to her daughter-in-law's embellished complaints and embarrassments. Although she had no expression on her face, she was really angry in her heart.
This home belongs to her, to her and her own son, and it's no one else's turn to make trouble here!
After Mrs. Qin left, Old Madam Lu's complexion sank suddenly, and she said coldly, "It's enough confidence to accept the title. After all, it's different from before. When I first came back, I was picky and picky." What a moth! I underestimated them!"
"That's not it," Zhao Momo sighed softly, "It's not easy for the second master and the second wife's family. I didn't expect the elder master's family to go too far! Everyone thought of ways to make things difficult for the second master's family. The young lady is such a gentle and kind girl, the second young lady is -, alas, what does the little girl know, isn't it all what the adults mean..."
The old lady Lu became even angrier when she heard this, and said with a sneer, "I understand that bitch Mu Qing's thoughts. She has played so many tricks, isn't it just because she wants to be the housekeeper? Hmph, as long as I'm around, she'll be dreaming!"
"Old lady, you have to take care of her. Even if she is Mrs. Hou, she is still your daughter-in-law, right?" Zhao Nanny said again.
The old lady Lu spat in disgust, "She is also worthy!" She sneered and said, "But what you said is reasonable. Since ancient times, there has never been a daughter-in-law who does not serve her mother-in-law! Second daughter-in-law and third daughter-in-law It's been a hard year, but the couple are enjoying themselves outside! Now it's her turn to show her filial piety... "
The old lady Lu laughed strangely as she said that, her eyes were filled with coldness.
She hated Mu Qing very much. Whenever she saw Mu Qing, she thought of Lu Wenxuan, and when she thought of Lu Wenxuan, she had to think of Lu Wenxuan's mother, her own cousin, and her own identity. Thinking of her cousin's indifferent eyes after she entered the door.
Although she used some tricks to become a flat wife, she entered the door behind her cousin, and her husband's formal main room was still her cousin, while she was half shorter. The husband felt guilty towards his cousin, so he was naturally indifferent to her. She didn't know how much cold eyes and dark anger he had received at the beginning. If she hadn't been able to endure and know how to calculate, if she hadn't been uplifting, where would she be today
So after Mu Qing entered the mansion, she didn't wait to keep her by her side to serve her in a proper manner. It wasn't because she was out of kindness, but because she didn't want to see this person!
She originally thought that Qin Shi and Mao Shi would greet Mu Qing well, and she just needs to stand by and watch coldly! Who knew that things were completely beyond her expectation!
Mrs. Mao didn't move at all. Listening to what Qin's words meant, she actually got very close to that bitch Mu Qing! This is something to eat inside and outside! And what about the Qin family? She has always been a smart person, but in Mu Qing's hands, she can't take advantage of anything, and instead, she is repeatedly defeated. Even his most beloved granddaughter was bullied by that wild girl who just came in!
Thinking of Lu Yiqing's grievances, the old lady Lu became even more angry.
"You prepare well for me, and call that bitch Mu Qing to come over tomorrow to set the rules!" Old lady Lu said.
"Don't worry, old lady, it's not just a matter of your words!" Zhao Momo smiled very easily, and a flash of excitement flashed in her eyes.
The next day, after everyone paid their respects, Mrs. Lu coughed, and then spoke on the phone in a leisurely manner, to the effect that she asked Mu Qing to stay and wait on her.
This is a reasonable and compliant matter, Mu Qing nodded submissively after listening to it. She sighed secretly in her heart. In fact, she had thought that such a day would come, but she didn't expect it to come so soon!
So, under Mao's flickering eyes, Qin's complacent expression, and Lu Xiaoshu's and other sisters' indifferent expressions, Mu Qing stayed in Mingqing Garden.
Because it was a rule, no servants were allowed to take her with her, Qiqiao, Qiu'er and the others had no choice but to return to Jingmingtang.
"My daughter-in-law has just returned home, and she still doesn't understand many things, and she doesn't know much about the old lady's habits and preferences. If there is anything wrong, I ask the old lady to forgive me!" Mu Qing saluted.
The old lady Lu snorted, originally she wanted to ridicule that she lived in the same mansion more than ten years ago? What do you not understand? It's just that this is a taboo for her, so she didn't say it. But hearing what Mu Qing said, she subconsciously became scruples in her heart. Originally, she was going all out to make things difficult for Mu Qing, but she subconsciously decided to take things slowly.
Even if the old lady Lu slowed down her attack, she still didn't feel good for Mu Qing. On this day, Mu Qing completely took over the work of Madam Zhao, Bier, Cuier, etc. beside Mrs. Lu, serving tea and water, serving meals, beating legs and backs, etc. all by herself!
Throughout the day, he was standing, not allowed to sit down for a moment. When eating at noon, it is natural to arrange for the old lady Lu to wait, and wait for the old lady Lu to make things difficult for her to use it in a leisurely manner. Only then does Madam Zhao come up to ask her to use it with a smile on her face. Of course, Mrs. Lu used the rest.
Fortunately, the serving chopsticks in her hand are used for the cloth dishes, otherwise, she would rather not eat them.
At this time, the food was already cold, Mu Qing picked up some light food and reluctantly used it, and took a few mouthfuls in a hurry, when Tweety came to summon "the old lady asks the lady to serve tea" again!
Until dinner time, Mrs. Lu didn't intend to let her leave, she left her to wait on her and ate dinner slowly, then she smiled half-truthfully and said: "The eldest daughter-in-law is really a virtuous and capable woman. Yes, I don’t know how to serve you. I think it’s a good job. My old man is very satisfied! Well, it’s getting late and I won’t keep you, so as not to make my eldest son complain that I’m a mother-in-law You don't know how to be considerate of people! You go first!"
"The old lady is serious!" Mu Qing lowered her eyes and saluted, then turned and retreated.
At this time, the sky outside had almost completely darkened.
As soon as Lu Wenxuan came back to Jingmingtang, he knew that Mu Qing was called to set the rules, and his face turned a little ugly. When he saw her coming back, he and his children went up to greet her, took her hand and said, "How is it? Did you make things difficult for you? Well, let’s talk about it in the house!”
Mu Qing smiled at him, greeted her children again, and entered the house together.
After entering the room and sitting down, Qiu'er hurriedly served hot tea.
Although Lu Jingan was young and still half-understood many things, he was still very unhappy that he hadn't seen his mother for a day, so he rushed over and pouted and said, "Mother, can you stay with me tomorrow! Why are you here?" Grandma stayed there for so long! I miss you so much!"
Lu Wenxuan pulled him away and said, "Okay An'er, your mother is tired today, don't pester her anymore!"
"That mother will stay with me tomorrow!" Lu Jingan insisted.
Lu Wenxuan pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, mother will stay with you tomorrow! Okay, just sit and go!"
Lu Jingan cheered, that's all.
"Mother, didn't the old woman treat you well?" Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help but looked at Mu Qing from head to toe, paying special attention to her hands.
Deliberately pretending to catch the tea and pouring it on people's hands and clothes is very old-fashioned, and Lu Xiaoshu also feels very contemptuous, but it doesn't work! It's just unsatisfactory.
But fortunately, Mrs. Lu may have too many tricks to use, and today is not her turn to use this trick. Mu Qing's clothes are still well free of tea stains, and there are no traces of burns on her hands.
Seeing Lu Xiaoshu's stare, Mu Qing thought of it for a moment, she couldn't help laughing "puchi", she held Lu Xiaoshu's hand and said with a smile: "Silly girl, mother is fine! She won't do that, do that Didn't you just give Niang Ming'er an excuse for not going?"
"Don't go tomorrow, we didn't ask her to go back home." Lu Wenxuan frowned, looking at his wife with guilt.
"Husband, is there any way?" Mu Qing asked with a smile.
Lu Wenxuan sneered and said: "I've made up my mind, please greet her tomorrow morning and I'll tell her that I dreamed about my mother, and two months later I will make a grand sacrifice for my mother, and you, my own daughter-in-law, will have fasting and copy scriptures from tomorrow. "
Being filial to her biological mother puts Old Madam Lu on the back foot in terms of status, and she has no reason to refuse.
"That's a good idea!" Lu Xiaoshu clapped his hands and laughed.
"What idea, what your father said is serious!" Mu Qing sighed and smiled, and looked at Lu Wenxuan. Lu Wenxuan nodded slightly towards her, with tenderness in his eyes.
That was Lu Wenxuan's biological mother. Lu Wenxuan had never had the opportunity to burn incense, kowtow to his mother's memorial tablet, and pay homage to her mother's memorial tablet during all these years. It is too appropriate to do a big sacrifice! It can also make up for the guilt in his heart.
"But, it's too early to say that tomorrow, maybe it's only two days. Anyway,,,,,, this little trouble is really nothing!" Mu Qing said with a faint smile.
