Mu Wan hasn't been back to Mu's house for six or seven years. Mu's house is not a good place, and she doesn't remember it so clearly. The time is all estimated.
As long as she can remember, she has lived in Mu's house with her mother. Mu's house is a courtyard-style building in the south, with a main hall and a side hall, and a garden behind it. She and her mother live in the side hall behind the garden.
The Mu family is in the cloth business, and the cloth business was able to start because of the tailoring skills of the Mu family. Grandpa is a master of craftsmanship. During the period of the Republic of China, Xiacheng celebrities, almost everyone had a cheongsam made by Master Mu from the Mu family in the west of the city.
Grandpa has a son and a daughter. Mu Qing's father has been learning art from grandpa since he was a child. On the contrary, Mu Wan's mother is very talented, and she learned eight hand skills from her grandfather.
When her mother was alive, she didn't mention her father's matter to Mu Wan, and the Mu family kept silent about her father, only saying that he was dead. Mu Wan and her mother live in Mu's house, and it's not like eating and drinking for nothing. After the grandfather passed away, the signature handicraft of the Mu family became the mother, and Mu Wan watched her make cheongsams since she was a child.
It was also because of her craftsmanship that the Mu family did not dare to do anything to Mu Wan and her mother. When her mother was alive, except when she was not around, Mu Wan was ridiculed and ridiculed, but was well protected by her mother at other times.
Grandma favored sons over daughters, and after grandpa passed away, everything in the Mu family was given to Mu Qing's father, Mu Yatang. Mu Yatang married Yan Mei, a daughter of the Yan family, and gave birth to Mu Qing.
The family of three is not a good person, Mu Yatang only wants to use his mother's skills and reputation to maintain the Mu family's business. But Yan Mei felt that her mother was pregnant before marriage and raised Mu Wan in Mu's family, which disgraced Mu's family, especially after Mu Qing was born, as the two children grew up, it was obvious that Mu Wan was better looking and smarter than Mu Qing. , She felt jealous again, and was picky about Mu Wan.
Mu Qing was raised by Yan Mei with all kinds of money since she was a child, but her talent is limited, she rarely raises her head in front of Mu Wan, and becomes inferior and vain. In Mu Qing's heart, Mu Wan is like her lifelong shadow and enemy.
In such an environment, Mu Wan and her mother were able to live peacefully in Mu's house, on the one hand because of her mother's craftsmanship, and on the other hand because of her mother's character. She just wants to lead Mu Wan to live a peaceful life, not to fight or grab, not to seek wealth and wealth, just to live comfortably.
To a certain extent, Mu Wan's current attitude towards life has also been greatly influenced by her mother.
At that time, Mu Wan was young and obediently listened to her mother's words. When I was at home, I was always with my mother and rarely went to the front yard. At school, she and Mu Qing were strangers, and pretended not to know each other. She is like a little fox, squatting beside her mother. Even though her mother is not strong enough, she can still protect her from the wind and rain. Mu Wan's life is peaceful and happy.
But this kind of life didn't last long. When I graduated from elementary school, my mother fell seriously ill and passed away after a long time. Before she died, she told Mu Wan that if Mu Yatang and the others drove her out of Mu's house, she would threaten them with her identity.
The Mu family's fortunes are in decline, and another scandal will affect Mu Qing's reputation, making it impossible for her to marry a good family.
When her mother died, Mu Wan was only twelve years old. Both her parents died and she had no relatives. Her mother just wanted her to have a place to stay, to receive an education, and to grow up normally. Even if you suffer some cynicism in Mu's house, it's better than living outside without a fixed place.
As soon as his mother passed away, Mu Wan's blessing also disappeared. In Mu's house, apart from cynicism, she was also beaten by Yan Mei and Mu Yatang, and violently treated by Mu Qing.
Children in junior high school can imagine more vicious ways than adults, and Mu Wan's life is completely dark. At that time, Mu Wan was too young and had just lost her mother's blessing, so her mind was still immature. The life of walking on thin ice also made her stronger gradually. In high school, no matter how bad the Mu family treated her, she would threaten the Mu family with the things her mother confessed before her death. However, at that time, Mu Wan was actually just a threat. An adolescent girl with a strong heart, she doesn't want to ruin her mother's reputation because of herself.
As Mu Wan grew up, she was no longer as polite to Mu Qing as she used to be. She was like a lion whose fur had exploded, and she was beginning to be aggressive, and the Mu family gradually restrained her treatment.
After graduating from high school, Mu Wan was admitted to the film academy in order to make money quickly, and completely severed contact with the Mu family. Occasionally, Mama Wu would visit her at school and tell her about Mu Qing's situation. Mu Qing failed the college entrance examination, and was sent abroad by Mu Yatang to learn dance. According to Mu's family, she also wanted Mu Qing to enter the entertainment industry.
Even if you can't marry a rich family, after you become famous in the entertainment industry, you can marry a rich man. Mu Yatang did not make a mistake in this step, Mu Qing came back from abroad and got to know Shen Cheng. Not only is Shen Cheng a rich and wealthy family, but he is also devoted to Mu Qing. The Mu family clings to the Shen family, and now that the gloom of the family has been swept away, they can be regarded as proud.
Mu Wan looked out the car window, lost in thought. The taxi stopped at the entrance of the alley, the driver dialed his watch and reminded, "Miss, we're here."
"Okay, thank you." Mu Wan looked away, paid the fare, opened the door and got out of the car.
After Xia City developed, it did not drive the development of the West District. This area is full of old-fashioned buildings in Xiacheng, an alley, and a few houses, all of which are in the style of blue tiles and white walls with small entrances.
The alleys are neither wide nor narrow, cars can't get in, and the street lights are also the kind that are directly installed on the wall. When she was a child, when her mother went to pick her up from cram school, she would buy her a small pastry at the alley, and she ate while holding her mother's hand to go home.
This road is very old and very long, and it has carried a lot of her memories. Even though she had a hard time after her mother passed away, when she walked through it again, she thought more of the time with her mother.
Tightening her eyes, Mu Wan walked to the door of Mu's house. The door was not closed, so Mu Wan pushed the door open and walked in. After crossing the screen wall, the main hall came into view. Before seeing anyone, she heard Yan Mei's voice.
"If this movie can't be acted, I won't act. Didn't Ah Cheng invest in other movies for you? Why are you so obsessed with this movie?" Yan Mei raised her eyes from time to time when she was speaking. Looking at Shen Cheng who was standing aside.
After Mu Qing came back from the set, she lost her temper, and when she lost her temper, she said things like moving Mu Wan's mother's tomb. Yan Mei was anxious at the time, so she agreed immediately. As a result, Mu Qing's anger hadn't subsided yet, but when Shen Cheng came over, she calmed down a little.
In front of Shen Cheng, Mu Qing usually looks peaceful and peaceful, with an orchid in the empty valley, but now she is suddenly angry, and Yan Mei is still worried that Shen Cheng's impression of her will become bad. But Mu Qing was very resourceful, and when she lost her temper, Shen Cheng looked distressed, and said to give her better resources.
Shen Cheng coaxed, she persuaded, Mu Qing calmed down, Yan Mei dared to ask what was going on. It turned out that Mu Qing was suddenly notified that she couldn't act in the play today when she was on the set. She was high-spirited, and since she entered the entertainment industry, she has been going smoothly. Wherever she has suffered such grievances, she didn't rush the notice and went home directly.
Mu Qing was sitting on the sofa, with his arm on the armrest, staring at the water glass on the tea table and sneering.
"Mu Wan must be behind the scenes."
When Mu Wan was mentioned, Yan Mei's expression changed again. Mu Qing cared so much about Mu Wan that she lost all logic when thinking. Every time something went wrong, she would buckle it on Mu Wan. But if you think about it carefully, Mu Wan is a supporting role, how can she have such a great ability.
"How can she have such a great ability." Yan Mei's tone was slightly disdainful, then she turned her head to look at Shen Cheng, and said with a smile, "Ah Cheng, what do you think is the reason for your company's sudden divestment this time?"
Shen Cheng stood behind Mu Qing, putting his arms on her thin shoulders to comfort her. When Mu Qing got angry, he looked desolate and desolate, and looked even more lovable than usual.
Regarding the Mu family, Shen Cheng only cared about Mu Qing. Hearing Yan Mei's question, he frowned slightly, and said, "The group asked for the divestment. I didn't ask for details. This is not a good resource. It was what Mu Qing wanted all of a sudden. It doesn't matter if I don't act this time." .”
"Yes, yes, yes." Yan Mei agreed.
"I don't want to just leave it like this." After Mu Qing finished speaking, she looked at Yan Mei, "When will my dad come back? Tomorrow is the day when Mu Wan's mother dies, so move the tomb. She already has children, why are she still buried in the Our Mu family?"
"Who dares?" There was a clear voice.
Mu Qing and Yan Mei Qiqi looked at the door, beside the screen wall, Mu Wan stood there with a slender figure and a cold expression.
Seeing Mu Wan, Mu Qing twitched his masseter muscles, and first looked back at Shen Cheng. Because of Mu Wan's words, Shen Cheng turned his attention to her beside the screen wall.
Mu Qing stood up from her seat, Shen Cheng turned her head, Mu Qing looked at her indifferently, and said, "Why not? Who are you? This is a matter of our Mu family, what does it have to do with you?"
Following Mu Qing's words, Yan Mei looked away and looked at Wu Ma who was standing in the backyard. Wu Ma stood there cautiously, and when she saw Yan Mei looking over, she was so frightened that she turned around and left.
It seems that Mama Wu informed her to come here.
This Wu Ma is really getting more and more presumptuous. She knew that she had been taking care of Mu Wan for so many years, and she even talked to Mu Wan about the Mu family's affairs, but because she worked in Mu's family for a long time and the price was right, she never fired her.
Looking at it now, it is really shameless to secretly inform Mu Wan to come over, it is simply audacious.
While Mu Qing was speaking, Mu Wan had already walked over. The Mu family has not changed much from before, and there is a cold atmosphere everywhere. Mu Wan stood still in the main hall, looked at Mu Qing, and said, "Didn't you just say that you were going to move my mother out of the Mu family's cemetery? Since she moved out, she is no longer a member of the Mu family. Why can't I take care of it?"
In fact, Mu Wan has no position to stand here today. Apart from refuting Mu Qing, what she said has no binding force on the Mu family. Yan Mei hadn't seen Mu Wan for many years. She remembered that after the college entrance examination, she moved out of Mu's house, saying that she had severed her friendship with Mu's family and had nothing to do with her. A few years have passed, she has faded away from the fierceness of her girlhood, but she has become more and more like her mother, and has become more and more indifferent.
"Whether you move out or stay in Mu's house, it really has nothing to do with you." Yan Mei maintained the last cultivation of a lady, looked at her coldly, and said, "We don't welcome you, please go out immediately."
Mu Wan had seen their shamelessness before, so her mood didn't fluctuate much. Looking at Yan Mei, Mu Wan asked, "Does Mu Yatang agree?"
The mother and son are thinking about these little things now, the mother is Mu Yatang's biological sister after all, no matter how bad she is, she can't do such a thing.
"Mu Yatang?" Mu Qing sneered, "You are becoming more and more polite."
She walked up to Mu Wan's side and looked at her level. She could tell that Mu Wan was only pretending to be calm, she must be very flustered. She is alone in this world, and she is not afraid of anything she does. But if something was done to her dead mother, she would surely die of pain.
Mu Qing felt a little joy in her heart, and swept away the haze of leaving the film crew today. Mu Qing looked at her with a smile and said, "It's up to me whether my dad agrees or not. What's wrong? You don't want to move? Don't you hate the Mu family the most? it's here?"
"Mu Qing." Yan Mei reminded her. Shen Cheng is still here, they can't spread the matter out.
"Shen Cheng knew about it a long time ago." Mu Qing smiled lightly, and said something to her mother. After finishing speaking, she crossed her arms, stared at Mu Wan, and said, "When you come here today, do you want to threaten us with your mother's unmarried pregnancy again like in high school? Then go! Come with us Let the fish die and the net be broken!"
"After you sent the message, I'll ask Shen Cheng to withdraw it. Let's see if it's you who posted the message faster, or Shen Cheng who was the quicker to withdraw."
"Besides, it doesn't matter if we don't withdraw. You are not a good thing by using your own mother's scandal to threaten us. Let everyone see what kind of person you are, and everyone will smile and pass. What do you do to me? No impact at all."
"By the way, I forgot to tell you. Shen Cheng and I are going to get engaged in a few days, and I'm going to marry the Shen family. What about you? Your fat rich benefactor, would you like to divorce your wife and marry you? ? Or, has he changed to another woman to support him?"
"You can only be proud for a moment. When you are dumped by him, see how I can kill you. You must know that in the entertainment circle, the Shen family is the most powerful."
As if saying all the words buried in her heart, Mu Qing's eyes were stern, she finished speaking with a sneer, as if all the shadows that had been pressing on her body for a long time were shaken away. She looked at the poor Mu Wan in front of her, her smile gradually changed from cold to warm, she turned around and hugged Shen Cheng's arm, and asked, "Shen Cheng, don't you think so?"
Mu Qing was already much happier than before, Shen Cheng smiled and said, "Of course, Shen's Entertainment is of course the most powerful in the entertainment industry."
"Mu Wan." A man's voice came from the door.
After Mu Wan glanced at Mu Qing and Shen Cheng, she turned to look at the door. Beside the screen wall, Liu Qianxiu stood there, tall and thin, with a cold and indifferent demeanor.
Here comes her man.
After Mu Wan looked over, he moved his brows calmly, got up and walked over. Mu Wan watched him coming, looked up at him, and suddenly laughed, her eyes flushed.
"How do you know where Mu's house is?"
"Mr. Liu..." Liu Qianxiu didn't answer her, Shen Cheng who was beside Mu Qing had already called out, his tone was startled and suppressed.
Liu Qianxiu's gaze stayed on Mu Wan, and he replied quietly, "I know everything about you."
Mu Wan blinked, in a trance, everything seemed to have an answer.
Liu Qianxiu took her hand and put his fingers together. The man glanced at Shen Cheng indifferently, and asked, "What did you just say?"
Shen Cheng didn't seem to have reacted yet, Mu Qing kept asking "Who is he" beside him, but he couldn't answer. He opened his eyes wide, looking at his and Mu Wan's clasped hands with jumpy eyes, not daring to look directly into his eyes.
"No... nothing." Shen Cheng said in a low voice.
The author has something to say: Daoist Liu: You guys dare to do things that make Mu Wan unhappy and show me.
