Chapter 20

Mrs. Mu hurriedly pulled back the curtain, "Zi Ang, take off the scorpion."

In Mu Wanqing's inventory, there were five sets of shrouds, which were tied to the roof of the carriage when they were not needed for the time being.

muzi'ang quickly stood up and pulled out a few mino clothes.

Mino clothing, bucket hats, wooden sandals, and three treasures for rainy days.

The father and son had just dressed and put a layer of tarpaulin over the mule. The sky darkened, and a flash of lightning struck. In a short while, a pea-sized raindrop fell.

Second Master Mu hurriedly led the mule, so that the mule would not run away in panic.

He took his two sons to the side of the carriage, "Madam, you and your daughter will sit safely in the carriage and you will be fine."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, hanging like a rain curtain in the sky, and the cold wind accompanied the raindrops straight to the face, making people unable to resist a cold war.

There is a layer of tarpaulin on the top of the mule car, and the windows and curtains are reinforced with a layer of tarpaulin.

It was as warm as spring inside the car, ginger tea was boiled in the small red clay stove "Pulu Pulu", and Mu Wanqing and her daughter huddled in the warm quilt, very comfortable.

Mu Wanqing leaned into the gap of the car window and looked out, looking at her father and brother standing guard in the wind and rain, her heart was filled with warmth.

Although the long road to exile is extremely difficult, it is good for family members to support each other.

They were fully prepared early in the morning, so they were organized and everything was under control.

But the others were not so lucky, and the team was a mess.

In the violent storm, everyone scurried around like flies.

Most people do not have rain gear, and there is no car to shelter from the rain. This wilderness is bare, and there is no shop in front of the village or behind.

All of a sudden, screams and screams were heard incessantly.

The officials were prepared, and one by one, they put on their cloaks to maintain order.

They formed a circle with carriages and ordered everyone to stay inside and not run around.

If you dare to escape, you will be shot.

The exiles ate a few whips, and the pain woke them up. They could only squat on the ground with their heads up and let the heavy rain pour on them. Soon they became chickens, and the rain was cold and shivering.

The Mu family's direct room was also caught off guard by the sudden heavy rain, and only ten sets of Minoyi were prepared, which was simply not enough for one set.

The only good thing was that the old lady Mu thought that the donkey cart had an open top and the sun was shining in the autumn, so she asked her descendants to use four bamboo poles to support a piece of oilcloth to make a canopy.

Uncle Mu is the head of the house, so he immediately assigned the robes to the men in the house, and also set one for the old lady. The female relatives with the young children were arranged to shelter from the rain under the tent, and the men held a few bamboo poles. Sitting outside in a circle of guards.

However, those concubines are miserable, they can't catch anything, their space is limited, and they can only helplessly soak in the rain.

People were next to each other, and the old lady Mu was surrounded at the very center, but she still felt cold, and there was a chill in her bones, which made her uncomfortable.

The wind and rain were so heavy that everyone's faces were wet, and their eyes could not be opened.

For a while, the rain formed a line, and it felt like a hole in the sky.

The storm was violent, the bamboo poles were swaying, and the hood was crumbling, making people terrified.

The old lady tightened her collar, looked up at the awning, and frowned, "Boss, the rain is so heavy, the awning seems to be unable to hold up."

Uncle Mu's eyes were full of worry and annoyance. He didn't expect the storm to come so suddenly and so big.

If knew this, should try best to get a carriage.

Who would have thought that what he most envies now is a person who owns a horse-drawn cart and a mule-carriage.

But he is the backbone of everyone, and he can't show any timidity, "Mother, don't worry, this rainstorm is coming in waves, and it will stop soon."

Old Mrs. Mu looked at the blue cloth mule cart not far away, her eyes full of longing.

Sitting in the carriage at this time is the most comfortable, if... a thought flashed through her mind.

"Boss, go and tell the second one, sell the mule cart to us, and we'll pay double the price."

With her previous temper, she would grab whatever she wanted, but Mu Wanqing was too savage, she thought she couldn't do it.

Third Master Mu's eyes lit up with frozen lips, and he also wanted to ride the mule cart, "Yes, yes, we will pay, not double, but triple."

Uncle Mu's mouth twitched, "Will he sell it at this time? Will Mu Wanqing agree?"

Everyone was silent.

They understood that Mu Wanqing was in charge of the second room.

Old Mrs. Mu felt that if she went on like this, she would become ill from the cold.

The older you get, the more afraid of death.

"You go, no matter what method you use, you must get the second child's consent. As for Mu Wanqing, she is just a junior, so you don't need to talk to her."

Uncle Mu couldn't help laughing bitterly, no need to talk? Could he still drag people out of the carriage?

However, his mother would not listen to persuasion.

However, he also wanted a mule cart, and even if there was a silver lining, he wanted to give it a try.

He stood up, put on his hat, and then walked into the majestic storm.

The pea-sized rain hit his face with pain and pain. Uncle Mu covered his face with his hands and walked towards the mule cart with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Everywhere he passed, there were all the clansmen who were struggling in the storm.

These clansmen are from ordinary families, and their relatives and friends are not wealthy.

When Uncle Mu walked to the mule cart where the second room was waiting, his hands and feet were already soaked, and the cold air rose from the soles of his feet.

"Second brother, I... want to buy your car, please make a price."

Second Master Mu wiped the rain on his face, wiped it with his hand, and asked strangely, "Brother, are you confused?"

The mule cart is precious and precious. It is an essential artifact for home travel. It is not afraid of strong wind, heavy rain and heavy snow. Well, this is what my daughter said.

Uncle Mu was very depressed, and forced himself to flicker, "I'll pay three times the price, you can take the money to buy three mule carts, three, one for each of the two nephews, there is no such shop after this village. …”

Second Master Mu is not really stupid, so he asked, "Brother, why don't you buy three cars yourself?"

Uncle Mu:  …

I can't fool you, what should do? so tired.

He had to take a step back. "Then let the mother and a few children get into the car for shelter from the rain. They are all frozen."

Second Master Mu still refused, "Our carriage is cramped and can only fit two people."

Uncle Mu said without hesitation, "Then let Wanqing and her daughter come down. They are healthy and eat well. Mother can't stand it anymore..."

It's here again, and it is a habit to confidently ask others to sacrifice, and it will be exposed if you are not careful.

Second Master Mu laughed angrily, let my wife and daughter suffer in the rain, and gave them the carriage? Why? "I can only lend you two minions."

Thanks to Mu Wanqing's habit of buying five copies of everything, they also had two vacant mink clothes.

Uncle Mu looked at him in disappointment, "Second child, how can you be so ruthless and helpless?"

A figure rushed over in the rain, Dingqing saw it, it was Sixth Aunt, she was wearing a scorpion, her hair was loose, and she was very embarrassed.

She choked up as soon as she opened her mouth, "Brother Zhongping, can my little girl get in your car and squeeze? She has had diarrhea in the past two days, and if it rains again..."

She gave birth to four sons, and only had such a sweet and soft little granddaughter, whom she loved very much.

Three- and four-year-olds are the most likely to die.

The curtain was lifted, and Mu Wanqing stretched out her hands, "Give me the child."

Aunt Liu didn't expect her to talk so well, she was so grateful and her eyes were red.

She lifted her robe, revealing the child's pale face.

The child was well protected and his clothes were dry.

Mu Wanqing took the child and touched the child's forehead, it wasn't hot.

I touched hands and feet again, it was icy cold, couldn't go on like this.

Xiaoya remembered her, the aunt who gave her the fragrant pork buns, she liked this aunt very much.

Smiling sweetly at her, she called out in a milky voice, "Auntie."

Mu Wanqing's heart softened by her smile, and she tucked the child into the bed, "Auntie will pour you some ginger tea. After drinking it, your stomach will not hurt."

"Ahhh." A terrified scream came from not far away.

Uncle Mu turned his head sharply, the bamboo pole was finally overwhelmed and broken, the tent was blown away by the strong wind in an instant, and the daughters and children in the first room were exposed to the heavy rain, and they were instantly shocked and turned into underwater dogs.

The cries of the children and the screams of the female relatives turned into a pot of porridge.

Uncle Mu couldn't help being anxious, grabbed Erye Mu's arm, "Second brother, please help me, for the sake of our same father."

"This……"

A hand stretched out from inside the carriage, "I lent these two minions to Mu Jinyao and Mu Rongxue."

The two of them were naked, exposed to the storm without cover, shivering from the cold.

"Send over children under the age of six."

The next generation of the Mu family married the two sons of the big house, and gave birth to four children. The others were not married yet.

She was referring to the four children.

In any case, the kindness and grievances of the previous generation have nothing to do with children.

She was righteous.

Uncle Mu's eyes lit up, "Three girls, you are a good girl. We were wrong in the past, so let us temporarily lend this car to us, okay?"

Mu Wanqing said with a sneer, "Mr. Mu, do you think I'm a fool who just gave up my life after being fooled by someone? You don't think I'm willing to treat a few children well and forget about the past. Kindness and resentment, right? I remember what you did to me."

"That's all in the past, how can the family have any feud overnight?" Uncle Mu still wanted to convince her, "Three girls, your grandmother is old and confused, so you treat her as a patient..."

Mu Wanqing had seen through this person long ago. He had a thick skin and was generous to others all day long. To put it bluntly, it was hypocrisy.

"My own grandmother died. As for this one, when he wanted to sell me to the jailer in prison, he was cut off."

Speaking of this, Uncle Mu couldn't continue, "Second brother, you are the head of the family, talk about it."

Second Master Mu looked at the majestic and heavy rain, and then looked at the grandson of the first-class house who was crying bitterly, a little speechless.

If you have this time to grind jiji, it's better to go back and preside over the overall situation.

"The mule cart is not mine, I can't be the master."

Uncle Mu was stunned. Whose is the mule cart? He couldn't understand at all, "You are an elder, and everything in the second room is yours, including your children."

"Whoever is more powerful in our family is the master." Second Master Mu doesn't like this. "You can also see that Qing'er is a hundred times more powerful than me."

Uncle Mu was so angry that he almost vomited blood. There are such shameless people in the world.

Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed to say it?

Second Master Mu doesn't care. He is a self-conscious person, and he has no knowledge in the mansion all the year round.

Mu Wanqing has a strong personality and is extremely smart. With her around, he doesn't have to think about everything.

Listen to my daughter's words, eat delicious food and drink spicy food, good things happen again and again.

Uncle Mu was laughed at by the father and daughter, but there was nothing he could do.

He is the patriarch of the Mu clan, but he is also a sinner of the clan, and the clansmen implicated by him refuse to obey him.

His prestige has been wiped out, and he has long lost the authority of the past.

He had no choice but to go back with two mino jackets.

Mu Jinyao's clothes were soaked wet, revealing exquisite curves, her frozen lips were white, and her expression was stunned, "She named us?"

"Yes."

The two cousins ​​looked at each other with complicated expressions.

Mu Wanqing really interprets the four words clearly defined to the extreme.

It also opened a gap in the heart of the Mu family, and everyone thought about it.

At this time, Mu Wanqing looked at the criminals who fell in the majestic rain, pursed her lips slightly, and a flash of eagerness flashed in her eyes.

The time she had been waiting for had finally come!

At the worst times, there is often a hint of a turning point.
