Zhuang Kang's words are not false. Mu Huanqing's martial arts came from the true inheritance of Mu Cangying, the first master in the country. She couldn't beat her father, but it was no problem to beat a guard in the Hou residence.
This night, I searched everywhere in the Hou residence to find people, but did not find any suspicious shadows. This matter became an unsolved case. The next day, I did not find any valuables lost in the Hou residence. Fu Yanlin could only send additional guards to inspect. Strictly guarded, they did not know that the female snitch they were talking about was still sleeping soundly with the quilt on the bed at the moment.
However, one day Aunt Lin slipped, and the maid came to report that Aunt Lin was frightened by the thief, so the fetus was gone in less than a month.
Mu Huanqing was awakened by the maid, and when she heard this, she was stunned for a while, and then she smiled. Frightened by slippery tires? Last night, she fought with the guards on the roof of the Book Collection Pavilion, which was far away from Concubine Lin's yard, clearly trying to find someone to blame.
Anyway, she was too lazy to care. After getting dressed, she and the others went to Concubine Lin's yard to comfort her. Of course, she was just pretending. They were waiting for Lord Hou. After Fu Yanlin entered the house, she and the others exited together.
After exercising wildly last night, she slept well again. Mu Huanqing felt in good spirits today, plus she had figured out a lot of things, her whole body felt reborn, and her mood was much better.
She decided to put the unhappiness between herself and Fu Yanlin behind her. From now on, the two of them will have their own way. She will only do her own thing, avoid him if she can, and carefully keep a distance if she can't avoid it. , and never let him bully him again.
She continued to live a peaceful life. In addition to visiting the Hou Mansion every day, she taught the dumb maid to read and write.
Mu Huanqing is indeed kind-hearted, but not stupid. She will observe whether this person is worthy of her kindness to her. The reason why she brought Xinyu to her yard at the beginning was mainly because of Xinyu's good temperament.
Although this girl was bullied, she stubbornly refused to shed tears. No matter how others were beaten or scolded, she silently endured it without crying or making trouble. She just covered her head with her hands, lowered her body as much as possible, and waited for others to bully enough. , She silently got up again and continued to work.
At that time, Mu Huanqing fell in love with her. She felt that this girl was only fifteen years old, but she had perseverance. What if she was dumb? At least not knowing what is right and wrong, much better than those who love to gossip and hurt people with their mouths.
As she expected, Xinyu was honest and honest, and what surprised her even more was that this Xinyu was not simple.
After Mu Huanqing taught her to read, she was shocked to find that this girl could never forget, which made her happy. Unexpectedly, she actually picked up a treasure and came back. Such talent cannot be wasted, so one of the things she must do every day now is to teach Xinyu to read and write, and warn Xinyu that this unforgettable skill will not be known for the time being , so as not to be used by people with intentions.
In order to protect the girl Xinyu, Mu Huanqing brought her to the inner room to be her personal maid, and transferred all the maids who had served to the outer room. She even brought all the maids, maids and stewards who had come by her dowry. Sent back to the Shepherd's House.
She and Fu Yanlin don't have to worry about her father's sexual intercourse, and send a whole bunch of people back, so that no one will pay attention to the inner court's affairs and spread some things that shouldn't be said.
The fact that the dowry servant was sent back to the Mu Mansion was also reported to Fu Yanlin by the steward in the courtyard.
"She sent all the dowry people back to the Mu Mansion?" Fu Yanlin was quite surprised. Married women have always attached great importance to the servants who came to marry, and it is easier to do things when they have their own people by their side, but this Mu Huanqing does the opposite. What is she thinking
The chief executive thought for a while, and then replied, "Perhaps... this is what the young lady meant to surrender to the prince?"
Are you surrendering? Fu Yanlin sneered. You have already become his person, so you want to please him
He previously thought that she did not approach him, did not cry or make trouble, and lived her life behind closed doors because she had backbone, and when the two had a skin-to-skin relationship, she thought she could ask him for pity , take up the air of his wife? If so, then he looked at her highly.
Even if she occupies the position of the main wife, it depends on whether he is willing to treat her as the main wife. If he has no intention, then she is nothing in his eyes.
"Since she sent people back, there are fewer people in the yard. You bring the Liu brothers and sisters to the old lady, and ask her to arrange for these two people to be sent to her yard. That's what I mean."
Does this mean that some people are placed in to monitor and continue to provide for the young lady
The chief supervisor took the order of Lord Hou, and conveyed the meaning to the old lady of the Hou residence, and the old lady sent someone to find the eldest daughter-in-law.
Mu Huanqing listened to the report, and her mother-in-law sent someone to let her go, and she couldn't help thinking. On weekdays, except to say goodbye, her mother-in-law would never call anyone to call her, and her attitude towards her was lukewarm. Since she was the daughter of Mrs. Shepherd, she would still maintain peace on the surface, but she knew that her mother-in-law did not like her. Call her, there must be something really wrong.
Mu Huanqing entered her mother-in-law's house and wished her well.
The old lady nodded to her, let her sit down, ordered tea to be served, and chatted with her a few times, and she responded obediently and behaved very well when her mother-in-law said anything.
After a while, my mother-in-law changed the subject and suddenly said, "There are too few people in your yard. I'll add a few more people to you, and I'll take them back to the yard later." Then he turned his head and commanded, "Go and bring people here."
Mammy Zhang responded, and after entering the room, she led a pair of twin sisters and brothers out shortly after.
Mu Huanqing finally understood that this was the purpose of her mother-in-law calling her here. It sounded like a negotiating tone, but she didn't actually give her a chance to refuse. She said it was good because she was afraid that there would be few people in her yard, but in fact she wanted to put people in her yard.
She smiled and nodded without hesitation. "There is a mother-in-law who is worried about her daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law is grateful to her mother-in-law."
Although the old lady didn't have a smile on her face, she was a little serious, but she didn't try to make things difficult for her. The goal has been achieved. After talking with Mu Huanqing for a few words, the old lady said that she was tired and asked her to retire.
After her daughter-in-law left, the old lady turned her head and said to Mammy Zhang, "She accepted it without even rejecting it. Did she really not know, or did she just pretend?"
Mammy Zhang said, "According to this old servant, it must be a pretense. The women from Mu's residence are not fuel-efficient lamps, so how can the daughter of Mrs. Mu be easy to deal with? She knows that she can't refuse, so it is better to be one. Human feelings, as for what the plan is, I don’t know.”
The maid on the side followed suit. "Old lady, the eldest son wants to put these two people in the young lady's yard, just because she is afraid that she will do something secretly, and it will be convenient for someone to watch."
The old lady nodded after listening to the words of the two. "I hope Ruoyou can give birth to the child smoothly this time, my old woman is still waiting to hold her grandson!"
At the other end, Mu Huanqing led a pair of siblings into her yard. The siblings are Liu Yun and Liu Mu. They are twins, because they are a boy and a girl. Although they look alike, they are still different. The older sister is beautiful and the younger brother is tall and graceful.
She called the steward, Aunt Ji. "Mother Ji, this pair of brothers and sisters was given by the old lady, and they will serve in our yard from now on. Except for my personal maid, don't move, everything else is up to you." After speaking, she looked at the pair of sisters again. younger brother.
"This is Nanny Ji, the steward in my yard. If you have any questions, just ask Nanny Ji, she will teach you."
"Yes, ma'am." The siblings said in unison.
"Mother Ji, you first let them get acquainted with our yard, I'm back to the room."
"Yes, ma'am."
After Mu Huanqing turned around and walked back to the house, Mammy Ji took the sister and brother to get acquainted with the environment, and when it was a little further away from the house, Mama Ji turned her head and whispered to the two of them, "The old lady has already sent someone to inform them. I said that I would arrange for you to come here." In fact, Nanny Ji was also from the old lady.
Sister Liu Yun said to Mammy Ji, "Our brother and sister were sent by Lord Hou to keep an eye on Madam. We also asked Mammy to find a way to arrange us in Madam's inner courtyard."
Ji Momo said: "I know now, Miss Liu Yun, you should go to serve in the lady's house. There are only Xinyu people in the lady's house. With you, you can just take turns with Xinyu. As for Liu Mu's little brother, you I'm in charge of cleaning the inner courtyard."
The siblings were taken aback. "That's it? Madam won't object?" But for servants who are suddenly arranged to be inserted from the outside, it is unlikely that they will serve in the inner courtyard at once.
"You didn't hear it. Just now, Madam said that except for the maid, Xinyu can't move, and the rest will be arranged by me. Since Madam sent all the dowry people back to the Mu Mansion, there is only Xinyu by her side. The servant in the inner courtyard, Madam will not object."
After the two brothers looked at each other, they looked at Ji Momo again. Liu Yun said: "Concubine Lin is pregnant, and Lord Hou is not at ease. The shepherd's daughters are not fuel-efficient lamps, and I'm afraid that Madam will make some tricks. Lord Hou asked us to come, just to keep an eye on her.
Ji Momo nodded and said, "I understand."
In fact, in the past few months, Sister Ji has been staring at the young lady, and she feels that the young lady is very easy-going and very good to the servants, which is different from the rumors.
But Ji Momo thought so in her heart, but she didn't say it. Some things have to be seen with their own eyes.
The Liu family brothers and sisters entered the inner courtyard like this and began to serve the young lady. They thought that the young lady would guard against them, but found that no matter what the young lady did or said, she never guarded the two of them.
