Chapter 29

Butler Chen sent a gift list and said politely, "This is Cheng Yi from our Chen family, please accept it."

A carriage, two beds, ten pieces of white silk, ten pieces of silk cloth, 100 catties of rice, 100 catties of flour, this was exactly what Mu Wanqing had asked for in compensation for the divorce, none of which were small.

The Chen family is quite particular, not to mention compensation, but Cheng Yi.

When relatives and friends go away, they will send some bundles as travel expenses, which is called Cheng Yi.

He also opened the curtain of the carriage, which was filled with the materials listed on the gift list, "The carriage will be left by then."

Sincerely, can't find any faults.

Second Master Mu handed the gift list to the eldest son, "What do you think?"

"It's all up to my father." Mu Zicheng's mood was a little complicated. No matter what, he had expected and longed for it.

He wants to raise his eyebrows with his wife and have a few lovely children.

However, don't drag other girls down.

How can a man be without a wife.

Second Master Mu sighed softly, "Madam, bring the marriage certificate."

Although Mrs. Mu felt a little regretful, in this case, getting married separately would be the best outcome.

Why should a daughter who was pampered and grown up marry an exiled prisoner and accompany her in exile?

Marriage, the first thing is the right match, otherwise it will not be happy.

Second Master Mu handed the marriage certificate to Butler Chen, "From now on, men's marriages and women's marriages have nothing to do with each other. I wish Miss Chen's marriage a good person and a safe and happy life."

The butler of the Chen family was a little moved, saying that the second Master Mu was useless, but this kind of big-mindedness was really rare.

He bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mu, for making a man a phoenix, I will be able to marry Jiayuan, who is a suitable room and IKEA, and will be happy."

The two families did not fight, and they called off the marriage decently.

Butler Chen stepped aside and looked on the sidelines.

When it was Yu's turn, the driver of another carriage jumped out, turned around, and invited the people in the carriage to get off.

It is a pair of master and servant, a beautiful and gentle girl with a slim body, exuding a quiet temperament, but there is a trace of sadness between her eyebrows and eyes.

The other is a servant girl, her eyes are full of worry, her brows are wrinkled, and she looks like she is on the execution ground.

The driver took the initiative to introduce, "I am the housekeeper of the Yu family, and this is the fourth young lady of my family."

Fourth Miss Yu stepped forward, Yingying bowed, "I have met Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu."

Etiquette is perfect, manners are chaste and dignified.

Mrs. Mu personally stepped forward to help the person up, took her arm and looked up and down, she was a beautiful little girl, with a melon face, willow eyebrows, cherry mouth, delicate and weak, I felt pity for her.

But, looking gloomy.

She was heartbroken, frowning slightly.

Second Master Mu couldn't understand, "This is...?"

Butler Yu bowed his hands with a respectful attitude, "At the order of the head of the family, I will send the fourth young lady over to get married, so as to complete the marriage alliance that was made at the beginning."

Second Master Mu was shocked, it was beyond his expectations.

Ordinary people either simply break off the marriage, such as the Chen family, and they don't owe each other.

Or drag it on for a few years and see how the situation develops.

But it's the first time I've seen someone like this to get married.

Mrs. Mu was even more surprised, how could marriage matters be too trivial? The three books and six ceremonies are getting married, and the big red sedan chair greets you in person, and every step is indispensable.

"What? Getting married? Did I say something wrong?"

Fourth Miss Yu is an innocent and good family daughter, while the Mu family is an outcast. Once she is married into the Mu family, she will become a criminal woman.

This is called marrying a chicken and following a chicken, marrying a dog and following a dog, but who can stand the gap? Did they really think about it?

Butler Yu looked serious, "Our family is upright, we keep our promises, and we will never be treachery."

Mu Erye couldn't help showing admiration, "I didn't expect Yu Yushi to be so righteous, so admirable."

Mu Wanqing's ears pricked up as she watched the whole process, which was a little interesting.

This is not a direct descendant of the fourth young lady, but it is better than a direct descendant.

Her mother is Yu Shi's cousin,

childhood sweetheart

, had a marriage contract long ago, but had no choice but to make fun of people, Yu Yushi was caught by the daughter of a high-ranking official...

The final result was to give each other a step, Yu Yushi married the daughter of a high-ranking official, his cousin became his favorite concubine, and his wife and concubine reconciled, achieving a rare story and being praised by the world.

When Mu Wanqing heard about this episode, she sneered at the censor, and it was a good story, she was obviously a hypocrite.

Although the censor is a seventh-rank official, he can directly impeach a hundred officials.

The second room of the Mu family was able to climb into this marriage, which was facilitated by the old lady Mu.

I don't even think about it, how could it be possible to arrange a good marriage due to old lady Yimu's suppression of the second room.

There must be something in it.

After a simple analysis, the biggest possibility is what the censor did behind his back.

Harmony between wives and concubines is just a man's fantasy, for the sake of interests, for the sake of children, for the sake of petting, fighting to the death or the death.

This is ranked fourth in the fourth miss. The first sister and two brothers are both direct descendants. The concubine gave birth to a son and a daughter, and the son is the youngest.

It looks quite regular, but if you taste it carefully, it will not taste right.

Butler Yu couldn't hide his expression, "I will hand over the fourth young lady to the Mu family. Please treat my fourth young lady kindly."

Mu Erye and his wife looked at each other, a little dazed, not knowing what to do.

The eldest daughter-in-law has flown, will there be a second daughter-in-law first? It's not out of the norm either.

Also, what about weddings on the road to exile? You can't just do a random salute and you're done.

Wedding is a major event in life, how can it be hasty?

The situation froze for a while, Mu Wanqing looked at the silent woman, coughed, breaking the silence. "Miss Yu, are you willing to marry my second brother?"

Everyone looked at them in unison. Mu Ziang's eyes brightened slightly. This is his fiancee. She is beautiful and gentle, the type he likes.

And Miss Yu kept her head down and said nothing.

Mu Wanqing sighed softly, they didn't want to!

The light in mu Ziang's eyes gradually dimmed, and he said softly, "Father, mother, the twisted melon is not sweet, so don't force it."

I can't blame other girls. The road to exile is dangerous, and they lose their lives at any time. How can a delicate girl endure that kind of suffering?

"Steward Yu, take your fourth young lady back, you can only suffer with me."

Fourth Miss Yu raised her head sharply, looking surprised.

Seeing his son's firm attitude, Mu Erye and his wife discussed it, "Yu butler, we all understand the Yu family's attitude, and we are very grateful to the Yu family for their benevolence and generosity. This marriage is over and the people are brought back."

Even if they don't pay compensation, their conditions are much better now, and they don't have to rely on those things to survive.

Butler Yu firmly disagreed, "This is the master's order, and I have no right to make my own decisions."

"Fourth Miss, take care of yourself." He bowed, stuffed the two parcels with the maid, jumped into the carriage and beckoned to Butler Chen, who jumped up.

In this way, the two drove away in a car.

Fourth Miss Yu watched the carriage leave with red eyes, trembling in the autumn wind.

The servant girl stood beside her, her face pale and pale, full of despair of being left behind.

Mu Wanqing's mouth twitched, is this marrying her daughter, or throwing a burden? Don't you give me a dowry?

The people in the second room were all caught blind, and they threw them away and ran away? What's wrong with this?

Seeing this, Mrs. Mu couldn't bear it, "Miss Yu, I'll ask someone to take you back."

Fourth Miss Yu's eyes were wet, and she whispered softly, "I can't go back."

From the moment she left the house, it was the spilled water.

She cheered up and squeezed out a gentle smile, "Auntie, I am a member of the Mu family in my life, and a ghost of the Mu family in death. I will be filial to you and my uncle in the future."

This is the path her father arranged for her, and she has no choice.

Mrs. Mu couldn't tell what it was like in her heart, she just patted her arm, "Don't be afraid, we are not mean people in our family. If you drink it, we will give you half of it."

Fourth Miss Yu smiled with tears, "Thank you auntie."

Mrs. Mu's heart softened. She was still a young girl who had just reached her age. She was far away from her parents and family at a young age, and she must be very scared when she came to them alone.

Be nice to her in the future.

The sun was rising very high, and the time was already wasted, so Mr. Zeng anxiously urged him to go on the road.

No matter how late, we will sleep in the wild in the wild.

The second room of the Mu family was a little messy, and didn't know how to arrange the master and servant of the fourth young lady.

But the official dispatch was too hasty, Mu Wanqing thought for a while, "I'll talk about it later, mother, come and take a car with me, Miss Yu Si's master and servant take a carriage, and let Si Si take charge of driving the car."

This is also avoidance.

"Big brother and second brother, you should go to the carriage of the Chen family and protect the supplies."

They had an extra carriage, which was quite enough.

"Father, go drive the mule cart."

She arranged everyone clearly, everyone immediately took their place, and they all became accustomed to it.

Only Miss Yu Si's master and servant watched this scene in astonishment, and couldn't recover for a long time after getting on the carriage.

The nanny looked at the well-arranged carriages and was a little relieved, "Miss, how come there are so many carriages in this Mu family? Where did they come from?"

The conditions are actually quite good, which is completely different from the despair she imagined.

Fourth Miss Yu looked out the window. There were a few carriages in the queue, but not many, but more prisoners walking hard.

However, the second room of the Mu family seems to be different. Those officials are also polite to them. Is it an illusion?

Inside the carriage, Mu Wanqing was writing and drawing with a pen and paper. She already had a plan, and pressing it was the actual operation.

Let the guards go to the front station and touch the market first.

Where is the production place of medicinal materials, and where the cloth is affordable and cheap, these things are lacking at the border.

As for tea, you can start with consideration, but you don't know the composition of the border consumer market.

She made a market research form and just filled in the numbers.

She called Shen Yong, "This is a market survey, go to a few more shops and ask more. I want the prices of materials in several nearby towns. You have a total of twelve people, two groups of two, divided into six groups, no problem?"

What she ordered was taken for granted, and Shen Yong subconsciously responded, "No problem."

He took the form and walked for a while before he reacted, and ordered them to do things without discussing it.

This is a partner, it is clearly a subordinate.

"Miss Mu San..."

Mu Wanqing smiled, "Why don't you understand? If you don't understand, just ask. There must be my teacher in the threesome, so don't feel ashamed."

Her smile was too bright, she stretched out her hand not to hit the smiling person, Shen Yong hesitated for a moment, "No, I understand, it's..."

Mu Wanqing's smile became even sweeter, "Okay, I'll count the data after you guys get it back, and try to earn a toll as soon as possible, go back quickly, I'll cook in the evening, what would you like to eat? You can order a dish. Yo."

Shen Yong had already heard that her cooking skills were unparalleled, even better than imperial food. "It will be all right."

"That's fine, I'll make a big pot of wealth and honor, and make sure it's delicious."

Shen Yong turned around happily and shouted to his companions that they were working, but when he sat on the horse, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Has he been fooled away again? The entire rhythm is under the control of Miss Mu San.

The companion shouted, "Brother Shen, why are you so stunned? Hurry up."

Shen Yong shook his head and chuckled lightly. Forget it, he was no match for Miss Mu San at all.

During lunch, Mu Wanqing got off the carriage and moved her hands and feet to stretch her muscles and bones.

The road conditions are not good, the carriage is bumpy, and the back is sore after sitting for a long time.

Master Zeng came over with a wild flower in his hand, "Miss San, there are many kinds of wild flowers, and the smell is very fragrant. Can you use them?"

They picked up all kinds of wild flowers along the way, and wild chrysanthemums were the most common, and they were almost wiped out by them.

Mu Wanqing glanced at it, "This is the wild camellia. The dried flower can be used to stop bleeding, and it can also be used to drink water for beauty and beauty. The root can also be used as medicine to disperse stasis and reduce swelling, and it can also be sold in pharmacies."

Master Zeng's eyes lit up, this is a good thing.

He hurriedly shouted and asked everyone to pick wild camellias, which could be sold for money after drying.

This unfunded business is so cool, the rhythm that can't be stopped, making money is addicting.

Everyone is also very happy, as long as they work, they can have extra meals in the evening.

The cook came running with a few red fruits, "Miss San, these wild fruits are very sweet, they have been cleaned, you can try them."

Mu Wanqing likes to eat fresh melons and fruits, but unfortunately, there is nothing to eat along the way, at most, pick some wild fruits to eat.

"Thank you." She took a bite, sweet and sour, "This is not bad, is there anything else? Pick some more so you can make jam."

Seeing that she likes it so much, the chef is very happy. The third lady taught him the craft for free. He has no money, no ability, and nothing to honor, so he can only prepare more vegetables and fruits. "There's a lot more, I'll go after I finish cooking."

Mu Wanqing nibbled the wild fruit and looked at the hard-working people, expressing her satisfaction that fewer people had troubles recently.

A female voice suddenly sounded, "Sister Wanqing, how can you be so close to a foreigner? Men and women are not inseparable, didn't Aunt Mu teach you?"

It was Miss Yu Si, her tone was very gentle, and what she said was not pleasing.

Mu Wanqing: ? ? ?

"Who are you?" Her parents didn't care, let alone said such a thing.

"Uh, I'm..." Fourth Miss Yu suddenly got stuck. Although she was the second daughter-in-law of the Mu family who had never been through the door, her concubine's identity was unknown.

In what capacity does she discipline Mu Wanqing?

Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, turned around and left, not intending to embarrass her.

Life is short and survival is difficult, why waste time on tearing.

A figure blocked her way and said indignantly, "Miss Mu San, I'm the nurse of the Fourth Miss Yu, seeing you being so rude, I couldn't help but want to say, my lady is for your own good, and as a woman, you need four lines. "Women's virtues and women's words are women's appearance and women's work, what is a woman's virtue, leisure and chasteness, observance of festivals and disciplines, shame in their actions, and law in their movements..." Note 1

Is it appropriate for a wet nurse to teach Mu Wanqing a lesson with her mouth full of female virtue?

Mu Wanqing was amazed, the forest was so big that there were all kinds of birds.

"What do you mean, I have no virtue?"

However, a wet nurse can memorize the virtues of a woman, so where did she learn it?

Mu Wanqing subconsciously glanced at Fourth Miss Yu, didn't she? Yu family let her daughter learn these things?

Fourth Miss Yu's nanny is the most hated to see others bullying her own young lady, and she rushes to the front in everything.

She was very dissatisfied with Mu Wanqing's attitude.

"If the old slave is disrespectful, you are acting a little..."

She said that she was from a censor family, a scholarly disciple, and a noble family, hundreds of times stronger than the unknown second room of the Mu family.

Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Huh?"

The nanny felt wronged for her own young lady. With such a beautiful appearance, she should have a bright future, but now it is all ruined.

The Mu family has become an exile, and is not a good match at all. For the sake of a clear name, the master just sent people out regardless of the pleadings of the second lady and the young lady.

There must be Mrs.'s handwriting in this one! Madam is not a good concubine.

"It's not in line with the rules. My young lady is the daughter of the imperial censor's mansion. You Bingting has taught her well, and she has an outstanding de Rong. She can be regarded as a model of female virtue. She is willing to give you some pointers. You should cherish the blessing."

Mu Wanqing burst out laughing, where did she come from?

"Since it's so good, why was it abandoned by the family and became an abandoned child?"

Fourth Miss Yu has a standard little white face, not aggressive, so pitiful, and people can't help but want to take care of her.

She looked over in disbelief, her face white and scary.

"My master kept his promise..." The nurse blushed.

Mu Wanqing rolled her eyes, "I sacrifice a daughter's happiness for the sake of a good reputation and a career. Is this keeping promises? Or is it just to make a name for yourself?"

Fourth Miss Yu's face turned paler, and the nanny was angry and shouted, "What do you know, you are speculating maliciously and disrespecting your sister-in-law and relatives."

Her voice was too loud, attracting countless curious eyes.

Mu Ziang, who was helping out, also heard it and ran over quickly, "sister, what's the matter?"

The nurse seemed to have seen the savior and hurriedly complained, "Second son, you came just in time, the third miss was rude, rude to my young lady, pity my young lady who suffered all the way, traveled thousands of miles just to follow the second son, the second son, you It's her only support, if you don't protect her, she won't be able to live."

What she said was sincere and sincere, and moved herself. There is no reason to move a young man.

But to her surprise, muzi raised her brows and frowned, "my sister is kind and generous, and no one will praise her. You must have misunderstood her."

Granny:  …

Miss Yu Si:  …

The nurse felt that he was unreasonable, "She scolds our master for making a name for himself!"

muzi sighed softly, surprised, "what my sister said?"

The nurse wiped away her tears in grievance, as if she was greatly wronged, "Yes, how can you say that?"

She thought that mu Ziang would scold Mu Wanqing. Who knew, Mu Ziang said righteously, "that's to make a name for yourself. Hey, I didn't expect that Uncle Yu just looked like a gentleman."

The nurse is not well, is he okay?

"That's your father-in-law, that's a false accusation."

mu Ziang unconditionally believes in her sister. She is so smart, how could she be wrong?

"Impossible, my sister is broad-minded, has a vision that is far above the world, and has a noble character. How could it be possible to frame a stranger?"

The nanny couldn't believe it, and she doubted her life, "Second Young Master, do you believe so much in Lingmei's words?"

Mu Ziang nodded without hesitation, "of course, my sister Bingxue is smart and has a very accurate vision. She said she was trying to make a name for herself, that is, she would not accept refutation."

The nurse almost vomited blood, who is this?

Fourth Miss Yu's lips twitched slightly, "Second Young Master, younger sister Wanqing, it's my nanny who is too stubborn, I will apologize to the two of you on her behalf, I also did something wrong, I didn't control the servants well, and I asked the two of you. Forgive me this time."

Her posture is very low, her face is as pale as paper, and mu Ziang is too embarrassed to care about her, "then don't do this again next time, you say I can, but my sister can't, you don't know how good and cute she is , you'll fall in love with her after getting along for a long time."

Fourth Miss Yu looked sullen, didn't want to speak at all, and felt so tired.

Mu Wanqing couldn't help but laugh, "Second brother, what do you have for lunch?"

She took the initiative to change the topic, but mu Ziang didn't find it out at all, "the double-cooked pork rice bowl you taught last time is delicious, I want to eat three large pots, ah, I won't tell you, I'll go back to work ."

He ran back quickly, Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, but her eyes turned cold, "Miss Yu, no matter what you think or plan, don't hurt my family, otherwise, I will kill you all in minutes. The clock thing."

Although she was smiling, the smile did not reach her eyes, "Understand?"

Her threat successfully changed Fourth Miss Yu's face, "I don't understand what you mean, I just want to get along well with you."

Mu Wanqing could understand her thoughts of not wanting to marry her second brother, but she couldn't tolerate her plotting against her family.

"Really? Then why did you deliberately let your loyal dog bite me? You actually want to open a gap in me. I admire your courage. You have a weak and innocent little white face, and you have some means, but it's not enough. Look."

By pinching her and holding the second room in the palm of your hand, you can achieve your goal.

Abandoning these words, Mu Wanqing walked away Shi Shiran.

Fourth Miss Yu looked at her distant back, her eyes flickering, and the Mu family were all weird.

The nanny fought for her, "Miss, why is she like this? It's okay to have no rules, and it's still so rude."

Fourth Miss Yu sighed softly, "Maybe I'm really wrong."

"Miss, how could you be wrong? You have suffered too many grievances, and it is others who have let you down." The nanny's eyes reddened, "Even the second lady sacrificed you for the young master."

Two tears rolled down from the corners of Fourth Miss Yu's eyes, her heart was full of sadness.

She struggled, went on hunger strike, and fought, but her family still chose to give up on her. Who else could she trust? Who else can you rely on?

She was alone and helpless, and only then did she realize that she could only rely on herself.

...

Mrs. Mu Er ate a mouthful of double-cooked pork rice, and her mouth was full of fragrance. As expected of her daughter's idea, it was delicious.

"I think Fourth Miss Yu is very reluctant, why don't you send people back."

Mu Wanqing didn't like to eat fatty meat, so she picked it out and put it into Erye Mu's bowl, Erye Mu loved it.

"If I guessed correctly, Yu Yushi should have already made a big splash when he left the capital. How can he go back?"

This is equivalent to breaking the way for Fourth Miss Yu to go back, Yu Yushi is a ruthless character.

"But we can't keep getting along so vaguely, right? If one party is reluctant about marriage, they will not be happy in the end." Mu Erye felt that it was not suitable. "Qing'er, how do you think we should handle this matter?"

The life of the second brother is related to the life of the second brother. As a younger sister, Mu Wanqing seems to have no right to speak, but the fourth Miss Yu has to guard against it, "Second brother, what do you think?"

"I listen to my parents, I have no idea." mu Zi'ang buried his head and ate hard without raising his head.

Mu Wanqing's mind flashed, and she thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.
