    Chapter 31

    Mu Wanqing, who was sitting at another table, regained her senses and was a little surprised. He didn't look like someone who said such a thing, "Please say it."

    There were too many people, and they were divided into four tables. The bosses accompany Du Shaoxuan at one table, and the others sat in a row.

    And Mu Wanqing's family ate together with ordinary officials, and the difference was clear.

    It can be said that Mu Wanqing and her daughter are the only women present, but what does it matter?

    Any woman who can't eat at the same table is exiled, so there's no need to be so polite.

    Besides, Mu Wanqing has no such concept. She has worked so hard to make a big pot of vegetables, and she is not allowed to eat it at the table?

    The big pot must be surrounded by steaming hot to be delicious.

    Du Shaoxuan was born as a general, and was extremely proud in his bones. He would rather bleed than ask for help.

    But, this time is different.

    "I have a relative who is born with insufficiency and is naturally frail. He is very picky when he eats. I wonder if there is any dish that will make the appetite? One or two will do."

    Everyone knows that a secret recipe can be passed on to future generations and can support future generations. Who would be willing to give it to others?

    He knew that this request was too much, but thinking of his sick cousin, he still opened his mouth.

    The two grew up together from a young age, and their love was extraordinary. What's more, the cousin's identity was too special, and he was born with unparalleled dignity, carrying the hopes of countless people.

    Hearing what he said, Mu Wanqing glanced at him more, but she didn't expect that under his stern appearance, there was a heart of pity and cherishing jade.

    relative? I'm afraid it's my sweetheart, I really can't see it, hahaha.

    Thinking of saving her life, she was about to repay one or two, and nodded without thinking, "I will write a few recipes for you, and I will take it as the first thing I do for you."

    Only then did Du Shaoxuan know that she was serious.

    She personally promised that she would do three things for him in her lifetime. He didn't take it seriously, but she said it seriously and did it seriously.

    Even if he falls into the dust, he is still arrogant and unwilling to owe favors.

    There was a faint regret in his heart, if she was a man, she would definitely be transferred to him to make a career.

    "Thank you, Miss Mu San."

    When they were talking, everyone put down chopsticks frantically, their mouths were full, and the bowls were also full.

    Seeing that the bottom is almost bottomed out, everyone's chopsticks are going down faster, for fear of being robbed by others, their tongues are almost swallowed.

    This taste is really amazing. It combines all kinds of flavors in one pot. You have me, and I have you. All kinds of flavors have turned into a fresh fragrance, which makes people have endless aftertastes.

    Several pairs of chopsticks grabbed the last piece of radish at the same time, and no one refused to give in. This radish soaked in soup tasted so good, soft and glutinous, and fresh eyebrows fell.

    "I haven't had a hot meal for a few days, so let's let my brother."

    "You are young, and I will eat one meal less at my age."

    The other party couldn't help rolling his eyes, as if he didn't eat one meal less.

    Companions who are usually called brothers and sisters are about to fight for a bite to eat.

    "Master Zeng, you eat it every day, it's the first time I've eaten it."

    Hearing that Miss Mu San's cooking skills are excellent, he thought it was the level of a restaurant chef. He often went to restaurants and said that he still misses the food at Xiangpiao Lou on the first floor of the capital.

    But didn't expect it to be so delicious!

    This is much better than the first floor of the capital!

    Master Zeng laughed, "Who dares to let Miss San cook every day? She is usually very busy. This meal is what the brothers have been asking for for a long time, and finally got it. You are all rich."

    "I ran a lot today, it's really hard, and I desperately need to make up for it."

    Mu Wanqing, who was beside her, saw it in her eyes, but she didn't get involved, she just smiled slightly.

    As a craftsman, everyone is so good, of course she is very happy.

    Madam Mu was full, and came over and said softly, "Miss Yu and the others haven't eaten yet, what should I do? I don't think they have prepared dry food."

    Mu Wanqing thought for a while, then got up and filled two bowls of rice. The steaming soup was poured over the rice, shiny and fragrant.

    She didn't say hello to anyone, and took Mrs. Mu and walked away with rice silently.

    As soon as they walked for a while, a figure blocked their way, "Second aunt, sister Wanqing, this meal is delicious. Speaking of which, I haven't eaten the rice you cooked..."

    It is the eldest grandson of the Mu family, Mu Zifeng. He is disheveled and has a sour smell all over his body. He has completely lost the demeanor of a noble son before.

    Mu Wanqing wrinkled her nose in disgust. If she couldn't take a bath frequently, could she change her clothes more often? It stinks to death, and the big room is becoming less and less particular. "You're blocking my way."

    Not only did mu Zifeng not let it, but she also stared at the rice in their hands, her eyes were full of saliva, and her saliva was almost drooling. "Give me these two bowls of rice."

    give him? He said so confidently, and regarded himself as the eldest young master of the Mu family.

    Mu Wanqing was extremely impatient. The woman in the big room was still aware of current affairs, but the man didn't know what to say, "The reason."

    Mu Zifeng's eyes flashed, and she said of course, "I am your cousin, the future head of the Mu family, and the hope of the Mu family, sister Wanqing, you are so smart, you should know what to rely on for a married daughter, yes Mother's house."

    The implication is that if you want to find him as a backer in the future, be nice to him and serve him.

    This is the mainstream thinking of this era, but unfortunately, it doesn't work for Mu Wanqing.

    Mu Wanqing couldn't help but be amused, not to mention that the Mu family was already down, let's just talk about Mu Zifeng, who poured the best resources of the family into him and raised him as an heir.

    If everything is safe, you can do it well.

    It stands to reason that when the family is in danger, he should stand up to turn the tide, protect the clan, and make a way for the whole family to survive. This is what the heir should do.

    But obviously he couldn't do it, he didn't take the slightest bit of responsibility, and he was still very depressed. He missed the good times in the past from time to time, and let him do things.

    Not only him, but their father and son are still immersed in the beautiful dreams of the past, and have not completely accepted the reality.

    Men are more vulnerable than women and can't stand the blow.

    "Wrong, you can only rely on yourself. First, you are not as smart and capable as me, and secondly, without my scheming, do you still want to be my support?"

    She can see through mu Zifeng's mind at a glance, but she has no ability but thinks about it all day long.

    He wasn't like this before. Although he was annoying and proud, he didn't bother to play tricks.

    "You want to squeeze me, for you to drive, for you to eat and drink, hahaha, it's impossible in this life, why don't you hang a rope first and see if you can do it in the next life?"

    She has always been direct and sharp, breaking through the other party's mind with one word, and slapped him in the face.

    As a man, don't want to make progress, and don't want to protect wife, children and parents. It's useless.

    Mu Zifeng's face was hot, and she couldn't help but turn into anger, "you're a woman, what's the use of being smart? You can't build a career, and you can't pass on your family. A girl dares to talk to me like this. Believe it or not, I'll beat you... "

    Du Shaoxuan came out and saw this scene, his eyes sank, and he despised the scum who bullied women the most.

    Just as he was about to go to clear the siege, he saw Mu Wanqing shoved over and kicked Mu Zifeng's knee hard. His feet softened and he knelt down directly in front of Mu Wanqing, baring his teeth in pain.

    Mu Wanqing was condescending and disdainful, "That's it? Haha."

    She was thrown into the army for special training every summer in her previous life, and she learned a lot, including grappling and kicking.

    Although she is a flower fist and embroidered legs, she is surprisingly difficult to deal with one or two big men.

    Of course, in the face of real masters, you still have to admit counsel.

    She stepped forward and kicked two more feet, and after she was relieved, she took Mrs. Mu and left.

    Du Shaoxuan watched the whole process, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

    The entourage behind him straightened his eyes, "Miss Mu San is very personable, even more sturdy and aggressive than the women at the border."

    Du Shaoxuan said lightly, "It's her cousin who is too weak."

    A waste who is inferior to a woman, how dare he say what Mu Wanqing is relying on.

    Brain is sick!

    The entourage was stunned, how could he hear the intention of defending Miss Mu San? No way?

    His master is an incomprehensible amorous man, and he doesn't make excuses for any woman, how could it be possible...

    Mu Wanqing's mother and daughter were walking in the long corridor, and the fragrance drifted for ten miles as they passed by, and everyone who was attracted looked over, drooling, and the child was crying greedily.

    Aunt Six came out of the room and said a little embarrassedly, "Brother and sister, Qing'er, can I exchange this for a bowl of white rice?"

    It was a small silver bean, and don't know how it escaped the search of the officials.

    Oh, it is also possible that when relatives and friends say goodbye, they are quietly stuffed to them.

    Mrs. Mu Er looked at her daughter, Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, and then she smiled, "Okay."

    It's impossible to give for nothing, and the brothers clearly settle the account. This is the rule set by Mu Wanqing.

    The sixth aunt happily returned to the house with the white rice, and several grandchildren happily gathered around and watched eagerly.

    The six aunts did not divide the food. After mixing the soup evenly, they took a spoon to feed the children. One person took turns to feed them.

    "This meal is delicious, you can eat it too, grandma, and so do your parents."

    With just such a bowl of white rice, how could the adults compete with the children for food? Seeing the children eating so beautifully makes me happier than anyone else.

    "We're all full, you eat."

    When the children finished eating, Uncle Liu picked up a grain of rice that had fallen and put it into his mouth, fresh!

    "Girl Wanqing's craftsmanship is so good, it's too unexpected."

    Aunt Liu rolled his eyes at him, what can a grain of rice taste like? It's as delicious as you can imagine.

    Yes, they haven't eaten something good for a long time, greedy!

    "Next time I have a chance to buy some from her, that child has a good heart."

    Her little daughter-in-law exclaimed in dissatisfaction, "We bought it with money, how come she is kind-hearted?"

    Aunt Liu sneered, "What do you know, if she makes an exception and doesn't collect money, everyone will go to her for food, and if she doesn't give it, she will offend people, so it's better to set the rules from the beginning, she is a smart person, usually It's already good to be biased towards us, how did your father-in-law become a steward?"

    Managers have fifty cents more than others, some are good, and there are rewards.

    The little daughter-in-law muttered, "Our relationship is already very good."

    Sixth Aunt raised her face with a serious look, "No matter how good it is, it's not a reason to take advantage of others, and we don't have anything to take advantage of. It's better to pay the bills, so that we can have a long-term relationship."

    She is not a person who likes to take advantage of the petty advantage. She will give back a few mouthfuls of garlic when they send onions.

    No one is a fool. If they always want to take advantage, who would want to associate with them?

    What's more, this is the road of exile, materials are scarce, and everything requires money.

    The son and daughter-in-law responded with a solemn hand, and the family has an old man who is like a treasure.

    On the other side, Mrs. Mu was called away temporarily because of something, and Mu Wanqing brought a bowl of white rice back to the house.

    Hearing the knock on the door, Miss Yu's master and servant asked cautiously, "Who is it?"

    "it's me."

    The nurse hurried forward to open the door, and hurriedly said, "Miss Mu San, how do you arrange dinner? What shall we eat? It's already here, and my lady is starving."

    Mu Wanqing wanted to bring Fourth Miss Yu to eat together before, but they didn't want to, saying that men and women are not married.

    Well, she doesn't force it.

    She handed over the bowl, "Eat it, no money."

    The nurse looked at the bare white rice and couldn't help being stunned, "Is this leftover rice? Eat leftovers for my young lady?! It's not so insulting."

    Mu Wanqing was very tired after a busy day. She rubbed her brows and explained, "It's bibimbap, it's clean."

    Fourth Miss Yu frowned, as if in disbelief.

    The nanny jumped up and shouted angrily, "This is abuse, my young lady has never eaten such a simple meal, Miss Mu San, you are so bad-hearted that you are going to get off your horse as soon as you come up..."

    Mu Wanqing thought she was too loud, "Shut up."

    "Miss Yu, do you think so too?"

    Fourth Miss Yu hesitated, really didn't eat the rest of the meal?

    Seeing her bowing her head and not saying a word, Mu Wanqing lost her patience and pushed open the door and shouted, "A bowl of twenty cents, who wants it?"

    A group of people rushed out, "I me me me."

    "Give it to me, no one will rob me."

    Mu Wanqing sold the meal to the clan who spoke first, and slowly put the big money into her purse.

    Fourth Miss Yu's master and servant were stunned, is this all right? The painting style of the Mu family is weird.

    Mu Wanqing was not a person who was overflowing with love, and it was already the limit that she could give Yu Si a bowl of rice.

    Everyone has hands and feet, so find a way to solve it yourself.

    She didn't believe that Miss Fourth did not have the money by her side.

    As long as you have money, nothing can't be solved.

    She turned out the mother and daughter's changing clothes and planned to take a hot bath.

    She is busy on the stove, and it is easy to boil a large pot of hot water. As long as the conditions allow, she will take care of herself.

    In winter, it is not convenient to take a bath.

    She was so busy that she completely forgot about the two people in the same room.

    Fourth Miss Yu's stomach growled with hunger, and she felt aggrieved in her heart. Tears rolled in her eyes. Unfortunately, she threw her wink at the blind man, and Mu Wanqing didn't give her a second look.

    The nanny was so distressed, "Miss Mu San, how can you bully people like this? This is the young lady of the Censor's Mansion, my master's most beloved daughter..."

    Mu Wanqing turned around with a smile, "So, why are you here?"

    Nanny: . . . heartbroken!

    "This is only temporary. The Censor House will always be the backer of the young lady. In the future..."

    Mu Wanqing smiled coldly, "Why wait and go back to be Miss Jiao now."

    Granny:  …

    "My young lady has come through a lot of hardships, can't you just let it go?"

    This resignation is never-ending and has to be relinquished for a lifetime.

    Some things just can't start.

    Mu Wanqing is a very egoistic person, who only cares about her own family and does not consider the emotions of outsiders intimately.

    "Why should I let her? She's big, I'm young, she's Miss Jiao, am I not? Who isn't the treasure in the palm of your parents' hands?"

    She raised her eyebrows, her black and white eyes were bright, "Oh, you are not, you are an abandoned child, thrown out by your father as a stepping stone."

    These words were so hurtful that Fourth Miss Yu could no longer hold her breath, and couldn't help crying.

    The nurse was both angry and distressed, "You are too deceiving, I want everyone to judge..."

    Mu Wanqing looked at her like an idiot, "Are you stupid? People here are either Fang or Mu, and your young lady's surname is Yu."

    The head of the Fang family is a smart person, and he won't meddle in his own business. As for the Mu family, no matter how wrong it is, it is impossible to help outsiders deal with their own people.

    The nanny was hit by an arrow in the chest, and her heart was shaky, she forgot that this was the Mu family.

    But she reluctantly said, "I heard that your second room is a concubine, and you are not treated by direct support. The old lady doesn't like you very much."

    "Yes, that's right." Mu Wanqing wasn't angry at all, she couldn't get offended with a fool, "So, I just beat up Mu Zifeng, the eldest son of the Mu family, the future head of the family, of course, provided that he doesn't Only by being beaten to death can you have the chance to inherit a family that is exiled and distributed."

    All the bamboo shoots on the mountain were taken away by her.

    "That kid dares to squeak in front of me and needs to be beaten."

    When she said this, she was staring at Fourth Miss Yu and told her specifically.

    She even dared to beat the eldest son of the Mu family, let alone others.

    Fourth Miss Yu was so frightened that she forgot to cry, and looked at Mu Wanqing blankly. She finally understood why Mrs. Mu was so afraid when she saw Mu Wanqing.

    Ferocious! It's completely unreasonable, and it doesn't talk about ethics and filial piety.

    The question is, how dare she? Aren't you afraid that you won't have a family to rely on in the future?

    The nurse was frightened, and Miss Mu San actually...really beat someone! How savage! "You can't hit me, you said not to hit women!"

    Mu Wanqing couldn't help but laugh, "Well... it also depends on my mood. Women are fickle, so you actually believe what a woman says? A woman's mouth is a liar."

    The nurse was even more frightened, and took a few steps back.

    No matter what she did, she was just a servant, and if she was beaten by Miss Mu San, it was no good.

    Fourth Miss Yu silently stood in front of her, summoning up the courage to plead, "Sister Wanqing, the nurse doesn't have much knowledge, so don't bother with her."

    Seeing that she still knows how to protect the servants, it means that there is still salvation, and Mu Wanqing does not expect to reverse her character and concept overnight.

    This requires a process.

    However, there are some bottom lines to let her know, so as not to step on the bottom line from time to time.

    "You are accustomed to letting your servants speak for you, to use other people's mouths to say things you can't say, and to stand up for you. This method is also playing in your censor's house. Here, in our Mu family, there is no use, no use. People will eat this way, and they will not be used to you."

    She gave a piece of advice, "Also, it's good for you to recognize the reality early and recognize your own situation."

    Fourth Miss Yu's lips trembled, her face turned white and blue, "Mu Wanqing."

    Mu Wanqing was not afraid of offending people. Whether or not she could be punished was one thing, and whether she was willing or not was another.

    As long as you are strong enough, everything can be pushed horizontally.

    "Either change yourself into the new environment, or be strong enough to change the environment, you can do it."

    Abandoning this sentence, she ran away with a change of clothes in her arms.

    The fourth Miss Yu was left with a pale face, a tingling pain in her heart, and tears welling up.

    The nurse couldn't help crying, it was too difficult, how can I endure this day? "Miss, don't cry, Miss Mu San is too rude, let's go and complain, go..."

    She got stuck, who to complain to?

    Mrs. Mu? don't know who is afraid of whom.

    Mu Erye's husband and wife? They only obey their daughters.

    Brother Mu? Always my sister the best, she can't be wrong.

    She was completely powerless, and panic filled her heart with helplessness everywhere.

    Mu Wanqing's words pierced the fourth young lady's heart like a sharp arrow. She closed her eyes and tears rolled down her eyes, "Nanny, let me be alone for a while."

    She needed to think about Mu Wanqing's words. Although it was hard to hear, she pointed a way to her.

    Mu Wanqing found Second Madam Mu, and the two took a comfortable hot bath next door.

    She briefly talked about the conflict with Yu Si, and Mrs. Mu Er shook her head slightly. The girl is actually a smart person, but she has too many eyes.

    Their family are honest people, they can't hold back the girl.

    "Wherever you can, stay far away if you can't. Don't quarrel with her, lest she hate you."

    In her eyes, her daughter is still the little girl who needs protection.

    As for the recent changes? It was a last resort. If they hadn't been able to support it, why would a thirteen-year-old girl take up this heavy responsibility?

    It's their useless parents.

    Mu Wanqing felt warm in her heart, and answered happily, "Father and brothers are still packing up, I'll go over to take a look later, you can go and sit at Sixth Aunt's place and find out more about the movement of the clan."

    Aunt Liu is a bag of inquiries, and there is nothing she doesn't know.

    Mastering everyone's movements will help her analyze and make the most accurate judgments.

    Erfu Mu helped her dry her hair and asked gently, "Don't you need me to accompany you?"

    Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, "No, no one dares to disrespect me."

    As she gained more and more right to speak, the attitude of the prisoners towards her also became more respectful.

    Neither the Fang family nor the Mu clan dared to offend her.

    The mother and daughter were busy with their own affairs, and Mu Wanqing walked towards the kitchen with brisk footsteps.

    I ate well, slept well, and was able to take a bath. felt quite happy.

    "Miss Mu San, why haven't you returned to your room?"

    Mu Wanqing looked up and saw that it was Du Shaoxuan. He changed into white clothes, less indifference and more warmth.

    "I'm going to take a look in the kitchen, why don't you rest?"

    Du Shaoxuan is a bit of a clean freak. There were too many people eating, and his clothes were dirty. No, he rinsed after eating. "Eating too much, go out to digest."

    The two exchanged a few lukewarm greetings, and just as Mu Wanqing was about to leave, the attendant beside Du Shaoxuan spoke up.

    "Miss Mu, can you help us make some food that we can carry on the road? We are tired of eating dry food along the way. The price is easy to discuss."

    Du Shaoxuan glanced over coldly, "Azhong, don't be rude, Miss Mu San, don't take this to heart, I'm really sorry..."

    Miss Mu San cooks for love, not duty.

    Insulting people with money is really inappropriate.

    He didn't know that Mu Wanqing wished that others would use money to hit her. Come on, let's hit her with gold and silver.

    She pondered for a while, "Can I get beef? If I can, I'll get you something delicious."

    Cow is an important production material, and it is not allowed to kill at will, so there is no beef on the market.

    The attendant's eyes lit up, "Should be able to."

    Mu Wanqing didn't ask them where to do it, she was also a little greedy for beef, "Then I agreed in advance that you don't need to pay, but give me one-third of everything, if I can accept it, I'm ready to work. "

    The entourage looked at Du Shaoxuan, Du Shaoxuan nodded slightly, "It's done."

    Mu Wanqing flashed all kinds of beef recipes in her mind, "Okay, I'll make a list of ingredients and give it to me after I prepare it."

    She added a lot of private goods, and some seasonings she can't buy, such as pepper, which is expensive, not to mention, there must be a way.

    "Okay." The entourage gave a deep salute, "Thank you, Miss Mu San."

    When the prisoners woke up early in the morning and heard that they were going to stay in the inn for a few days, they were overjoyed.

    Can make money again.

    Everyone was enthusiastic and actively cooperated. When the materials arrived, they all took their places and performed their duties.

    Early in the morning, Du Shaoxuan was awakened by the movement outside. He walked over to the window and took a look. Many people were busy, and some were running.

    He called an attendant, "Go and ask, what are they doing?"

    "Yes."

    Du Shaoxuan thought for a while, then stopped him again, "Inquire about Miss Mu San by the way."

    The entourage was a little surprised, "Yes."

    Du Shaoxuan saw the girl in green clothes at a glance in the crowd, full of vitality, "Is there any news from the capital?"

    "No."

    Du Shaoxuan indifferently instructed, "First give my aunt a message, if the emperor grants marriage, I will not enter the palace, and I will wait for the driver in the palace."

    The entourage looked sullen, "Yes."

    His master is too arrogant and doesn't listen to persuasion, what should he do? It's what those two nobles are used to!
