Chapter 106

cool city

A new day started again, the sun shone in, and Mu Wanqing, who was sleeping on the bed, opened her eyes, rubbed it, and yawned contentedly.

slept really well.

She slowly got up, put on a ponytail skillfully, opened the door, and there were toiletries on the floor at the entrance of the room.

The yard is very quiet, and there are no people. At this time, they are all working in the snack street.

There were four Xiao Long Bao and a bowl of bean curd on the steamer on the stove in the kitchen. Mu Wanqing touched it and it was still warm. She took it out and ate it full.

She went to the kindergarten first, and saw the children having a good time in the small playground, she couldn't help but smile.

Children should have fun and have a full childhood.

The corner of his clothes was gently pulled, "Auntie."

A little boy looked at her with bright eyes, and his eyes were full of little stars. Mu Wanqing squatted down, "It's Bao'er, why didn't you play with the children?"

He has just opened his door at this age, and he spends half a day reading and half a day playing.

Bao'er held a three-character classic in her small hands, "I'm studying, I'll give my aunt a champion test and come back."

The child's childish words made Mu Wanqing's expression froze, and she pursed her lips. This child is the eldest grandson of the eldest son's house, and is not included in the amnesty, so it is impossible for him to become an official in the imperial examination.

She touched Bao'er's little head, "Do you like reading so much?"

This child is very smart and talented, but unfortunately, he has such a father and grandfather.

"Mmmm." Bao'er nodded vigorously, her eyes sparkling, "When I become an official, I will buy candy for my aunt, a lot of candy."

Mu Wanqing pursed her lips and smiled, and took out a candy from her arms, "Then I'll wait, this is a reward."

Bao'er cheered and hugged Mu Wanqing happily.

Mu Wanqing chatted with him for a while before sending him back to the classroom to study.

A faint voice sounded, "You...why didn't you tell him clearly?"

It was Mu Nannan, the concubine of the big house, one of the people who was thrown down by the big house.

Mu Wanqing allocated a house for them to live in. A family of more than a dozen people lived together, and several children were also taken care of by Mu Nannan.

Although they didn't give them a storefront, Mu Wanqing passed on the craftsmanship of making soy products. Hard work is hard work, but as long as they work hard, the family can live well.

Tofu, dried tofu, tofu skin, oil skin, dried tofu, bean curd, vegetarian chicken, vegetarian ham, etc., these things can be used in the snack street.

If each snack bar needs it, make a reservation one day in advance, and pick it up the next day, without them showing up.

The supply is in short supply every day, and the female relatives feel the joy of making money, and there is no time to be sad.

After having a little money, Mu Nannan decided to buy a donkey to grind tofu, and everyone could relax.

And she and Sixth Aunt were singled out to manage the kindergarten. Sixth Aunt was the deputy head of the kindergarten, with five taels of silver a month, and she was an administrator with twenty taels of silver a month.

Two taels of silver are quite a lot, and the people at border gates can't earn a few taels of silver a year.

Therefore, she is very hardworking and cherishes the life in front of her.

Mu Wanqing was right, having money can solve most of her troubles.

Especially after seeing the tragic situation of the Fang family, she was very grateful to Mu Wanqing for her protection, sincerely.

Without Mu Wanqing, there is no need to think that they would be worse off than the Fang family. Not to mention, after the Fang family came, the Mu family was terrified, and Mu Wanqing's prestige was even higher.

Mu Wanqing sighed softly, "He's still young, it's too cruel to tell him the truth now. When he grows up, he'll know that there are countless possibilities in this world. If he can't be an official, he can do other things."

This child is destined to be more difficult than others.

"Bao'er is a good boy, and he can be regarded as a good shooter, so guide him well."

Mu Nannan couldn't help but burst into tears, "Thank you, thank you."

Thank you for doing so much for these people, thank you for being so generous and forgiving.

The Mu family has Mu Wanqing, which is really everyone's luck.

Mu Wanqing patted her shoulder, comforted a few words, and turned to the academy next door.

This place is much quieter than the kindergarten. They are all working hard in the classroom. If you don’t work hard, you will not be able to do it. Weekly exams are taken monthly. If you fail the exams, you will lose face.

Mu Wanqing's reward mechanism is very abnormal. The top ten prizes are crazy, and the top three in the annual total can order food from Mu Wanqing and let her cook a table of dishes by herself.

This made the students so excited. Mu Wanqing rarely cooks herself now, but who doesn't know her craftsmanship?

The most important thing is that it can bring great satisfaction, and the patriarch personally cooks for me.

She didn't go in to disturb, but stopped outside the window and watched for a while. It was the head of the family who was teaching class A. He was indeed a jinshi from the imperial examination. shallow.

Mu Zicheng is a student of Class A, and under the guidance of the family head Fang, his homework has improved by leaps and bounds, which surprises Mu Wanqing.

The eldest brother is determined to take the imperial examination, and he also has certain potential. Mu Wanqing naturally supports him fully, and wants him to devote himself to studying.

However, mu Zicheng refused, and now the snack street is on the right track, and it is not difficult to manage.

Do more practice, it will be good for the future.

Well, Mu Wanqing is very democratic, as long as she doesn't ask too much, she will support it.

When she turned out, Mrs. Mu rushed over with her skirt, "Qing'er, Qing'er."

It was the first time that Mu Wanqing saw her mother so excited and exposed, and she was startled, "What's wrong?"

Mrs. Mu held a post in her hand, smiling all over her face, "Post from Du Fu, I invite you to attend the lotus appreciation party."

"Lotus Appreciation Party?" Mu Wanqing looked puzzled.

Mrs. Mu's voice was extremely excited, "I have inquired about it, and it is said that the Du family holds several events every year, enjoying azaleas in spring, lotus in summer, chrysanthemums in autumn, and plums in winter. For a grand event in the city, it’s hard to find an invitation post, and the people who can be invited are the famous people in the city.”

Mu Wanqing raised her eyebrows slightly, "This is an upper-level social event, and the Du family is very troublesome." Relying on this to connect with all walks of life.

The corner of Mu Er's mouth twitched, her first reaction was this?

Shouldn't it be to be invited and proud? This proves that she has a certain status in Liangcheng.

"I'll prepare a few sets of beautiful clothes and jewelry for you. You can't let others compare."

She was inexplicably excited, and the whole person was so excited.

When her daughter was at the age of marriage, she was worried that she would not have a suitable social occasion to appear, and she would not be able to choose a suitable son-in-law in all aspects.

All right now, all the powerful families in the Xiliang area will participate.

Mu Wanqing saw through her thoughts at a glance, she was speechless, why did she keep thinking about marrying her off?

However, for a traditional woman like Mrs. Mu, it is necessary to get married, and it is also necessary to marry a husband and teach children.

There is nothing more important than marrying a good family.

Even if she has already made a public appearance to start a business and has a little insight, she still thinks so.

This is caused by the secular world for thousands of years, and this kind of thinking cannot be changed by individuals alone.

Mu Wanqing had tactfully hinted at it several times before, but they were all ignored.

She is also lazy to say more, whether to marry someone, who to marry, in the end, she has the final say.

"I don't need the jewelry, I have it. I'll choose the style of the clothes."

"Okay, okay." Second Madam Mu excitedly went to prepare.

On this day, Mu Wanqing brought the whole family to attend the ceremony. The road leading to the Du residence was crowded, and carriages came one after another, blocking the road and walking very slowly.

Summer is hot, and everyone is not too hard.

Mu Wanqing leaned lazily against the wall of the car. There was ice in the corner. It wasn't very hot, but it was a waste of time.

She poured a glass of iced sour plum soup and drank it one by one.

Mrs. Mu looked at her whether she was sitting or not, her brows twitched slightly, "You can be so lazy at home, you can't be like this when you go out, you still have to dress up outside."

Otherwise, how to find a golden turtle son-in-law?

Mu Wanqing responded perfunctorily, "Don't worry, I have my senses."

Mrs. Mu became more worried when she heard the words, okay? "Don't quarrel with people outside, as the old saying goes, suffering is a blessing..."

Mu Wanqing interrupted impatiently, "Why don't we go? My temper is so violent, I can't control it when I'm stimulated, and even the fifth prince dares to cheat."

Second Lady Mu:  …

She can't control this child, she should let her father control it!

But when she thought that her husband listened to her daughter, and her daughter said that the sunset was in the east of the mountain, he would never say it was in the west, and she was even more powerless.

"You used to be young and couldn't control your emotions, but now it's different. You are the patriarch of the Mu clan, and every word and deed will affect the fate of the Mu clan. It's better to hold back. Think about the Mu clan before you get angry. I miss my parents and my family."

When Mu Wanqing heard this, she immediately sat up straight, "Mother, let me tell you the truth, I don't really care if Mrs. Mu is good or not, no one I care about can cause trouble for me, I will kill anyone who dares. ."

She managed the Mu clan. First, she restrained their words and deeds, and didn't want them to cause trouble to her. After all, this was an era when one person committed crimes and the whole family sat together.

Second, pick some helpers to work for her.

Even if she doesn't do anything now, the share given to her by each store is enough for her to live a very nourishing life.

"It's the Mu family who needs me, it's not that I need the Mu family. Where can I go with my ability?"

"You..." Mrs. Mu had nothing to do with her. She said one sentence, and Mu Wanqing said ten sentences, and every sentence made more sense than her.

"It's a bit floating, it's not good, you should be humble and low-key, even if you pretend you have to pretend."

Mu Wanqing said willfully, "No, life is too short, no one knows what natural and man-made disasters will happen tomorrow, I want to have fun in time and live as I want."

The second Mrs. Mu thought of the sudden house raiding and exile, and felt that Mu Wanqing's words made some sense, but this was not good, she was living like an outlier now. "How do you get married like this?"

This sentence was finally spoken, and Mu Wanqing immediately cheered up, "Let my husband's family listen to me, isn't it over?"

Mrs. Mu Er suspected that there was something wrong with her ears, "What? What did you say?"

Mu Wanqing has a strong personality, and she definitely can't find a strong man. How can they live if they are strong?

"I can make the Mu family listen to me, why can't I make my husband's family listen to me?"

It was so arrogant that it was impossible to refute it.

Mrs. Mu was in a trance, as if it made sense.

She couldn't help but make up the appearance of her daughter's husband's family being pulled up and down to work and make money. It seems feasible? !

Mu Wanqing glanced at her lightly, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she was done.

Stopping and walking all the way, finally reached the Du family's house. There was a pair of people standing at the gate of the Du family's house. Dingqing looked at it and saw that it was the Du family's eldest lady and Jiang Tongzhi's husband and wife.

When the eldest lady of the Du family saw Mu Wanqing, her eyes lit up, "Sister Wanqing, you are so beautiful today."

"Thank you." Mu Wanqing saluted the two of them with a bright smile, "I think so too."

Miss Du was stunned for a moment, then laughed, this girl is really cute.

"Sister Wanqing, Mrs. Mu, it's hot outside, please come in." She held one in hand and accompanied them in personally, walking slowly along the way, introducing the scenery of the mansion.

The picturesque scenery of Dufu is full of flowers.

Mu Wanqing was used to seeing Suzhou gardens, and it was not unusual.

She browsed the scenery at will, and suddenly, her eyes condensed, and the whole person was stunned.

"This is... what?" Did she read it wrong?

Miss Du followed her hand and looked over, "The kapok from the Western Regions was offered by merchants a few years ago. The flowers are as white as jade, and they are planted in the garden to enjoy. It's quite beautiful."

Fun? It's simply savage! Mu Wanqing danced with excitement, ah ah ah, cotton.

Suddenly, a voice suddenly sounded, "Where is this country bumpkin, who doesn't even know Kapok? He's still so excited, he really can't get on the stage."
