"The first thing, I want to take three servants away, and then ask the Marquis to explain it and give me the deeds of those three people."
Fu Yanlin did not agree or refuse, but continued to ask, "What about the second one?"
"Second, I leave the Hou Mansion, and it's not good for the laborers and teachers. It's better for my dowry to stay in the Hou Mansion. I want to discount the silver with the Hou Ye, even if it is a whole number, 30,000 taels!"
Her dowry is worth 50,000 taels, but there are many precious jade in it. If it is too cumbersome to carry to Zhuangzi, it is better to convert it into cash, which is convenient and practical.
Fu Yanlin did not expect that she would actually exchange the dowry for cash? Originally annoyed that she didn't know what trick she was playing, but now that he heard that she was going to cash in silver and made it clear that she really didn't want a dowry, he couldn't help but look at her with some doubts.
"How? I believe that 30,000 taels of silver is not difficult for Marquis."
Fu Yanlin pondered for a while, thinking about it. "I'll give you 50,000 taels of cash, and tomorrow morning, I'll send someone to handle these two things, so are you satisfied?"
She nodded with a smile. "Thank you, Lord Hou, then I'll wait for Lord Hou to finish these things and leave the Hou residence tomorrow morning."
Fu Yanlin said no more, turned around and strode away.
"Master Hou."
Fu Yanlin stopped and looked back at her coldly, a little impatient in his eyes.
She could see that the man thought she was playing with the means of refusing and welcoming, but she chose not to explain, because his misunderstanding had no effect on her, not to mention that his misunderstanding was more than this one
The method used by a mere aunt Lin is only pediatrics. If she wants to find justice and her innocence, she has a way, just like those backyard women since ancient times, in order to fight for a breath and a place, and choose to fight.
And she chose to give up the fight, not because she was arrogant, but because she couldn't find what she wanted in this Hou Mansion. She did not care about the identity of Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou's identity, nor was she lacking in glory and wealth. As for the affection of the Hou Ye , she never had any expectations for him at all, and after knowing that he was consummating the marriage, she was determined to never have anything to do with him again.
This man's heart is not in her, not now, and will not be in the future. If he really has a heart, as long as he sends someone to investigate carefully about Lin Ruoyou's slippery tire, he will definitely be able to find out a lot of doubts, but he didn't, he After listening to Concubine Lin's one-sided words, all of his people were biased towards that woman, so she didn't say much.
She stepped forward, bent down and picked up the Heli book that he had thrown on the ground.
"I also ask Houye to transcribe it according to the content above. It's not that I don't believe Houye, but since we want to share some things, it's better to write clearly. Of course, Ruohou also wants to add some conditions to the Heli book. , is also negotiable.”
Fu Yanlin stared at her, and seeing that her eyes were calm and calm, he reached out and took the note, turned around and walked away without looking back.
It seems that this has been accomplished, and Mu Huanqing is very satisfied.
In the Heli book, she deliberately wrote that the family members and servants she wanted to take away belonged to her, and no one in the Hou residence could take it back.
She has to keep a guarantee for the child in her belly. In case people in the Hou residence know that she has given birth to a child, she cannot be asked to go back. Although she believed that Fu Yanlin didn't care about the child she gave birth, she still had to plan ahead, and it was better to take precautions in advance, so the word "family" had deep meaning.
Fu Yanlin also only took her family and servants to refer to those three people, because he knew that she regarded these people as family, so he happily wrote it on the Heli book and sealed it together.
The next morning, Mu Huanqing got what she wanted, a letter with Li, the deed of the three, and 50,000 taels of silver notes.
She has nothing to do with him anymore. She carefully put away and left the book, and her heart was finally at ease.
On the day she left, the weather was sunny and the sun was warm. All the servants watched them silently, with sympathy, contempt, and schadenfreude in their eyes.
They all thought that once the young lady was driven to Zhuangzi, she would never come back, and when she left, only three people followed—one was dumb—one was a fool, and the other was old and useless Mammy, the dignified young lady, finally ended up like this.
Aunt Ji watched everyone's eyes in her eyes. She has spent all her years in this Hou's mansion, and she has seen that kind of down-to-earth look a lot.
"Young Madam, don't worry, in the new environment, the three of us will take good care of you." After all, Young Madam is young, and Aunt Ji wanted to give her some encouragement for fear that Young Madam would be disappointed.
Mu Huanqing looked at Ji Momo. It seems that the people in the Hou Mansion are not necessarily all cold people.
She smiled at Ji Momo: "Don't worry, I never expected those people to care about me."
Ji Momo was stunned. Didn't expect it? When she was still thinking about the meaning of the young lady's words, the young lady smiled again and said to her, "My mind will only be on those who care about me, and if Ji mama cares about me so much, I will not treat you badly. Sister Ji, when I am here, I will not teach you to worry or be afraid.”
Ji Momo had tears in her eyes when she heard it, for some reason.
For so many years, she had a low status in the Hou Mansion, and her life was always trembling. She was afraid that she would make a mistake and be caught, but no master had ever cared so much about her, and the young lady was the first to say she cared. her.
"Mrs. Xie Shao, this old slave will follow you well." Ji Mama lowered her head, her voice was hoarse, and her eyes were already wet.
Mu Huanqing just smiled, patted her shoulder, and reassured: "Don't worry, mammy, life will only get better and better."
Ji Momo looked at the young lady's smile. This young woman has a calmness that ordinary women don't have. This bearing is not inferior to the old lady of the Hou residence. No, she is more imposing than the old lady of the Hou residence.
Affected by this momentum, Ji Momo calmed down for no reason.
"Yes, ma'am."
"I am no longer the young lady of the Hou Mansion. This title is not applicable. You can call me Master Qing in the future!"
Young master
The three listened and nodded immediately.
In this way, when Mu Huanqing left, she took only three people, Xinyu, Li Yuan, and Ji Momo, plus their physical deeds, oh yes, and the child in her womb, got on the carriage together, Leaving Zhenyuan Hou's Mansion and heading towards an unknown future.
Four years later today—
Mu Huanqing woke up and was surprised that she fell asleep on the desk like this? And dreaming about the past...
She frowned. Why dream of that man? For her, it was an unpleasant past. Since she came to this village, she has left that past behind, and has not thought about the Hou Mansion for a long time.
From the day she left the Hou residence, she had already let go of her status as the young lady of the Hou residence and decided to pave a new path for herself.
She looked at the hairpin on the table, reached out and picked it up and examined it carefully, then wrapped the hairpin in a cloth and put it away in a wooden box.
Suddenly she felt something dangling, she raised her eyes and couldn't help but startled. Is there a butterfly flying in the study
Mu Huanqing's eyes lit up and the corners of her mouth curved up. She has spent four years of cold and summer here, and this is the first time she has seen such a big and beautiful butterfly.
The butterfly probably flew into the house by accident. She couldn't help following the butterfly, wanted to take a closer look at the butterfly, and tried to stretch out her hand, but she didn't expect that the butterfly was not afraid of her, and finally stopped on the finger she stretched out.
Oh, this butterfly is not afraid of people!
She retracted her hand cautiously, fearing that she would disturb it if she moved too much.
"Are you accidentally trapped in this room? Don't be afraid, I'll send you out." She smiled softly, walked to the door, opened it, stretched out her hand, and the butterfly spread its wings again.
Mu Huanqing watched the butterfly return to the air, and the whole mood improved. She stepped out of the threshold, and the sun today is fine, illuminating the whole Zhuangzi warm and bright.
She stood on the steps and looked up. The servants, maids, and wives in the courtyard were all busy with their work. Everyone's faces were full of smiles and full of vitality.
Seeing all this, she also bent the corners of her mouth. Thinking back then, she came to this village from far away from the capital and only brought Xinyu, Li Yuan, and Ji Momo with her, but now there are more than 30 people in this village.
The sun lit up her smiling eyes, and she strode to the stable, the butterfly flapping its wings and following her.
She kept several good horses in her private stables, and she watched them born and raised them. One of them was delivered by herself, her love horse Lanlan.
Lan Lan is a beautiful brown mare, and Mu Huanqing loves her very much. Although Lan Lan is a horse, she is very spiritual. She does not regard it as a beast, but treats it like a human being.
Before Mu Huanqing's figure approached, Lan Lan stepped on her hoof with a sense of feeling, and neighed happily in the direction of Mu Huanqing.
As soon as Mu Huanqing heard Lan Lan's tearing cry, she smiled and quickened her pace.
"Master Qing." Li Yuan, who was adjusting Lanlan's horseshoe, turned around when he saw the master and greeted him respectfully.
"Li Yuan, is Lan Lan good today?" Mu Huanqing originally asked casually, but Li Yuan answered quite seriously.
"It's not very good. I just helped it install new hooves. It smeared my face with saliva."
Mu Huanqing was stunned for a while, wanted to laugh but tried to hold back, and coughed. "That's because Lan Lan is grateful to you."
