urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 153
When Mu Zhaozhao came to Ruyiju, he saw Lianqiao and Chenxiang guarding the door in person. When he saw them, he bent down to salute and greeted in a low voice, "Miss, you are here."

Mu Zhaozhao stretched out his hand to help: "Is my mother resting inside?"

Forsythia is very clever: "No, grandma is not in a good mood. Mama Wu is talking with grandma inside. Miss, can you go and persuade grandma?"

After speaking, he lifted the bamboo curtain embroidered with magpies climbing branches and invited her in.

Mu Zhaozhao went in quietly, the outer hall was empty, and there was no one in the room, but Yu Wanniang's sobbing voice came from the bedroom: "...I really feel sorry for Zhaozhao, why is this child so miserable? It's hard to live a stable life for a few days , they came to make trouble again, what if it gets out and makes the big cousin unhappy?"

Although in Yu Wanniang's heart, her daughter is indeed good in everything.

But it cannot be denied that it is indeed her daughter who can make a marriage contract with Qin Mu.

And she felt that Qin Mu was willing to marry Zhao Zhao because of Meng Yu's face.

Now that Mu Youde is jumping up and down again at this juncture, if the people in the Xuanping Hou Mansion find out, they don't know if they will regret the marriage.

But Meng Yu was not there at this time, and he seemed to have lost his backbone, so he was really worried.

Mother Wu comforted her: "Grandma, it's not like you didn't see it, the cousin treats the young lady really well, why would you blame our young lady?"

Mu Zhaozhao walked in after hearing this, and comforted her: "Yes, mother, you can relax, my cousin already knows, and why did you say that you want to accompany me?"

Seeing the eldest lady coming in, Mother Wu quickly got up from the small stool, saluted her, and then quietly retreated, leaving the mother and daughter to talk.

Mu Zhaozhao took advantage of the opportunity and sat on the edge of the bed. Seeing that her eyes were red from crying, he took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears: "Mother, my cousin and grandmother didn't blame me, let's talk about this mess between us and the Xuanpinghou Mansion. Compared with my stepmother and stepgrandmother, it's not a big deal."

He teased in a relaxed tone: "Don't drop the golden beans, be careful that my brother will also be a crybaby in the future."

Yu Wanniang was also embarrassed by what her daughter said, so she snatched the handkerchief from her hand to wipe away her tears, and asked nervously in a low voice, "Is your cousin really not angry?"

What she was worried about was that Qin Mu was young and energetic, and felt that Mu Zhaozhao had such a father to embarrass him and lose his face, so he blamed his daughter for this.

She wasn't too worried about herself, after all, she was still pregnant, and she had been married to Meng Yu for almost a year, so she knew that he really treated her well.

"Cousin is really not angry." Mu Zhaozhao put his slender hand on her stomach gently: "Mother, you believe that I can handle them well."

Yu Wanniang hesitated for a while, and then whispered to her daughter: "If they want money, I have 5000 taels of silver. If it's not enough, I can make up some more."

"But you have to ask them to write a guarantee that they won't come to the door again."

Anyway, when I got married and left, I didn't ask for that money.

As long as they don't come to disturb their mother and daughter's peaceful life, it will be fine.

"Mother, you must not give it to them, otherwise they will make more progress."

Mu Zhaozhao sighed: "Besides, just because they did the kind of thing that drove us to death, is it possible that I am still expected to be filial to them?"

Yu Wanniang also sighed after hearing this: "I also wish I could drive them out."

"But I'm also worried. They are now barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes. I rejected them on impulse before, and now the Meng family is also dragged down by me. The neighbors are probably watching our jokes."

"They are blood relatives who killed them. If it spreads that you are not filial, it will hurt your reputation."

Yu Wanniang was also very aggrieved: "However, we can't say that they are so cruel to us. Not only is there no evidence, but you will lose your face if you make a fuss."

After all, if his father had a close relationship with bandits, Mu Zhaozhao, his daughter, would indeed be implicated.

To put it bluntly, the government doesn't care about Mu Zhaozhao's mother who left with him. If Mu Youde committed the crime of extermination, then Mu Zhaozhao might not be able to escape.

Mu Zhaozhao understood her worry: "Mother, don't worry, I know it well, the most important thing for you now is to take care of your health!"

Yu Wanniang was comforted by her daughter for a long time, she laughed through her tears in embarrassment: "Mother is really getting more and more unable to bear things."

Mu Zhaozhao smirked at her: "It's also because Father Meng dotes on you, so the mother who dotes on you gets younger and prettier as she lives."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Yu Wanniang shot her daughter a look, and then asked worriedly: "You said, why did they come to the capital suddenly? And they can still find here? I thought about it, could it be that the mastermind behind this scene is Xuanping Hou Mansion?"

When Mu Zhaozhao heard this, he laughed and joked: "Oh, everyone said that I was pregnant for three years and was stupid, but I didn't expect my mother to be quite smart?"

"However, I think Madam Hou and the others are less likely to do it, because the Meng family and I are inconspicuous. Regardless of whether I marry my cousin or not, the Meng family will always help me."

"But if my cousin marries a lady from another rich family, it will be an extra help."

When Yu Wanniang heard what her daughter said, it made sense, so she was puzzled: "But apart from them, we didn't offend anyone else, did we?"

"It may be the county head who had conflicts with his daughter, or it may be someone that father and the Meng family did not deal with."

Mu Zhaozhao didn't know the bottom line in his heart, but he realized it calmly: "But they can only use such abusive methods, which shows that they are worried about the Meng family, and they can only add trouble to me with those people."

Yu Wanniang looked relieved: "Zhao Zhao is really smart, you just have to have an idea in your own mind, be careful when you go out tomorrow, take Zhi Chun Nian Xia with you, and bring a few more guards."

Mu Zhaozhao couldn't help laughing: "Mother, that doesn't sound like I'm visiting a sick person. Others think I'm here to seek revenge?"

But Yu Wanniang insisted: "If you want me to feel at ease, just bring a few more people."

"All right, all right, I will obey mother." Seeing that she was about to get up, Mu Zhaozhao stretched out his hand to help her up: "Mother, I brought you some snacks, pastries and dried fruits. Eat some walnuts."

"You child," Yu Wanniang's eyes were red again: "Why are you so sensible? Mother sometimes wishes you were not so sensible."

Mu Zhaozhao put his hands on her swollen belly, with a gentle expression on his face: "Because I saw that my mother had a hard pregnancy in October, and my daughter loves her very much."

Yu Wanniang was coaxed by her daughter to cry again.

...

When Mu Zhaozhao woke up, it was already broad daylight.

It may be because of walking for too long yesterday, her calves and soles were sore and uncomfortable, Mint and Perilla graciously kneaded her legs: "Miss, is this strength okay?"

Mu Zhaozhao responded: "It's okay, you can ask Nanny Wen to talk to my mother, so that my mother won't think wildly."

After hearing what happened yesterday, Sister Wen asked her to act accordingly to see if she could learn something from them.

Let Nanny Wen go to talk with mother, so that mother will not think about it, and she is also preparing for the second aunt to gloat and say something in the past. With mother Wen, I don't have to worry about my mother losing face and being run out by second aunt.

"Yes," Mint replied, and looked at her expectantly and asked, "Miss, when are we leaving? Should you change into your clothes?"

Before Zhichun and Nianxia came, she and Zisu followed the young lady to go out most of the time.

But after Zhichun and the others came, because they knew martial arts, the young lady liked to take them with her when she went out.

However, the lady said last night that she would take them out together.

She felt that the eldest lady must dress up properly in order to be glamorous and make them regret it.

"No hurry," Mu Zhaozhao yawned lazily: "The clothes on me are pretty good, I don't want to go out in a glamorous way and come back disheveled."

If they dress up too well, they will definitely let themselves subsidize them.

But how is that possible?
Even if they couldn't be sent to prison, Mu Zhaozhao still wanted to get some money from them.

At the beginning of the hour, the little maid who was guarding outside came in and replied: "Miss, madam, please go over."

Mu Zhaozhao responded, and led the four servant girls to the main courtyard. After greeting Mrs. Meng, he was told a few more words before going out.

The father and daughter hadn't seen each other for more than a year. Mu Zhaozhao saw that Mu Youde, who had lost a lot of weight and looked more energetic, felt that although he was a bit of a scumbag, his current attire was really pleasing to the eye.

With the joy of reunion after a long absence on her face, she stepped forward to salute, her mouth was also very sweet: "Long time no see, father looks more energetic."

When Mu Youde saw his daughter, he was taken aback. Originally, his daughter was arrogant and her appearance could only be regarded as delicate, but now she seemed to have transformed into a butterfly. He always knew that his daughter's every move could be so pleasing to the eye.

After he was stunned for a moment, he said, "Zhao Zhao, you have grown up and become sensible."

"Your grandmother and I miss you very much. If your grandmother is not unwell, she would also like to pick you up in person, so why don't you come to the car with your father?"

Mu Zhaozhao nodded immediately: "Grandmother is here, my granddaughter must go to visit grandma."

As soon as they finished speaking, a coachman came over with a carriage, jumped down and put the stool on the horse: "Miss, please."

Now Mu Youde couldn't laugh anymore.

He originally planned to talk to his daughter first in the carriage, so as to ease the strangeness between father and daughter.

He thinks that his daughter respected him very much in the past, and he thinks it is not difficult to coax her to favor him.

Unexpectedly, the Meng family also specially sent them in a carriage.

It's obvious that you don't give yourself a chance to talk to your daughter, right?
So he said, "Zhao Zhao, Dad hasn't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much. Let's go back in the same carriage? It's easy to talk, and let your maid take another carriage."

Mu Zhaozhao didn't refuse either, but seemed to be a little outspoken: "Then father, please take my carriage? It's more spacious here."

Mu Youde felt that these words were harsh and resisted from the bottom of his heart.

But seeing that the four maids had already boarded their own carriage carrying gift boxes, they had no choice but to get in the Meng family's carriage.
