urge Zhao to marry

Chapter 68 After Marriage 4
Mu Zhaozhao also quickly adapted to the days when her mother couldn't revolve around her, because she was also very busy now.

The main reason is that my stepfather is too clingy, so my mother came here to accompany me for a while, so my stepfather can take advantage of the situation and come over to greet me.

It made Yu Wanniang look like her stepmother, but he looked like a loving father who worried that his daughter would be embarrassed by the stepmother.

Moreover, after their mother and daughter went to pay their respects to their wife a few days ago, Mrs. Meng left her and her mother there to listen to her handle the housework.

Mother is even more grateful to her mother-in-law for this, not because she will be in charge of the house in the future, but because she thinks that her daughter can learn many useful ways of managing housekeepers under the influence of her mother-in-law.

Although there are not many masters in the Meng family, except for the first three days when Yu Wanniang came in, they ate together, and then they all ate separately. I heard that the menu was set by the old man himself. The combination of meat and vegetables is good for health.

Each yard also has a small kitchen, where you can make some snacks and some soup.

But the cost of the kitchenette is not out of the public.

Mu Zhaozhao ate with her stepfather and mother at first, but seeing her stepfather wishing to treat her mother like a child, she couldn't stand it any longer, so she simply made an excuse, saying that the weather was getting hotter and she didn't want to Walk around, or eat in your own Linglong Pavilion.

In addition, the wife saw that Mu Zhaozhao had only one little maid by her side, so she gave her two maids.

The 15-year-old Zisu is the cousin of Su Ye, the eldest maid of the wife, and the 16-year-old Mint is the youngest daughter of the housekeeper in the kitchen. They were both third-class maids in the wife's yard, and have been taught by the wife's mother. It's very clever.

Now when they come to the new master, because of the respect the uncle has for the eldest grandma, and the obedience to the young lady, they naturally want to show more in front of the new master and earn the position of a big maid.

Originally, the little girl Xinxin was still a little wary, fearing that she would be replaced by the two new sisters in her heart.

But when the young lady went to fiddle with the incense and still only brought herself, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.

Mu Zhaozhao wears the youthful skin of his young age, but inside he has the experience of Huaxin's youth.

I have been left out for a few years, and I have also served as a housekeeper.

It's a pity that even if she married two men, she never had children, but she has three cheap stepson.

Therefore, it was quickly seen that the three maids were thinking, and when she was alone with them, she said something: You work hard, I value you, and the encouraging words of our master and servant sharing weal and woe in the future quickly made the three maids The girl's heart stabilized.

The idea of ​​the master humiliating the servant to death has long been ingrained. Now that they are given to the lady by the wife, it is natural that they hope to become the lady's confidant, marry the steward or the guard in the future, and continue to be the steward's mother.

Oh, it's not that they don't have ambitions and don't want to be Tongfang's concubine. The main reason is that the men in the Meng family are not lustful, and the unfavored Tongfang's life is not as comfortable as the mother who is in charge of his wife.

Furthermore, it was taught by the people on the wife's side, so naturally they would not teach them these things that are unworthy in the eyes of the wives.

What I teach is that the master humiliates the servant to death, that he would rather die than betray the master, otherwise not only will he die, but his family will also suffer.

In the blink of an eye, it was the nineteenth day of May.

Even in midsummer, Meng Mansion has many flowers, plants and trees, so it won't make people feel hot in the morning and evening.

When Mu Zhaozhao woke up early in the morning, he heard some cheerful bird singing outside the window, and his mood improved.

It has been almost half a month since she came to Meng's house, and she is liking Meng's house more and more.

The dim sum tastes very good, and I don't know what they smoked. There are very few flies and mosquitoes in summer.

Mu Zhaozhao didn't think that she was a very ambitious person. In life, she didn't care about daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar and tea. She felt that she was living a very comfortable life.

Thinking about it again, I thought in my heart that the maids were short-sighted and didn't have any enterprising spirit, so I seem to be similar to them now?
She went to clean the room first, and when she came out, Xinxin was already waiting by the dressing table to comb her hair: "Miss, Zisu and the others went to the kitchen to get breakfast."

"Yeah!" Mu Zhaozhao took out the agate hairpin from the vanity box himself: "I'm not planning to go out in this hot weather, I just use this hairpin for a refreshing comb."

Yesterday she combed herself a fringed bun and wore some delicate jewelry with silver petals and pearl hearts, which made her feel heavy when she was working.

So today she doesn't want to let the servant girl play freely, and she will make incense later?
Xin Xin paused when she heard the words, and felt a little regretful that she had no room for display today: "Then servant girl, how about a cloud-like bun for the lady? But how about wearing a few more roses and lilacs?"

After she had eaten the tasty and delicious breakfast, seeing that it was almost time, she got up and went to pay her respects to her wife.

Today is Zisu's turn to accompany her to go out. The little girl's cousin is Su Ye who is beside the wife, so she can be regarded as well-informed: "Miss, when I went to the kitchen, I heard that there was a commotion in Qinyaxuan last night. Woke up."

Mu Zhaozhao was a little surprised when he heard this: "Do you know why there is such a commotion?"

In fact, she really wanted the Meng family to be well. After all, if the second uncle and the second aunt were noisy, Mrs. Meng's mood would not be much better.

She felt that the second aunt was a little bit unaware of her blessings, and the life of the Meng family was comfortable enough, so she insisted on not stopping.

Zisu glanced around vigilantly, and then approached her in a low voice: "I heard that the second grandma came back after seeing the uncle bought cherries for the eldest grandma, and the second grandma urged the second master to buy them for her too. The second master may be in Hanlin. The courtyard was a bit tired, and she thought she was making a fuss, so she went to Qingdai's place to have a rest, and the second grandma vented her anger on Zifu, making Zifu kneel there and making people beat the board. Grandma just made a fuss and died..."

Mu Zhaozhao knows that the cheap second uncle also has two roommates, and has met him a few times, and they are all gentle, obedient, and obedient, but they are not beauties who are overwhelmed by the country. The beautiful scenery of the good day is a bit worse.

Now she somewhat understands why Second Uncle chose such two rooms. She was probably worried that the three women in the inner courtyard would be able to create countless dramas?

If it wasn't for the cherries her stepfather bought, she might still be in the mood to watch the show.

Now, she was a little worried that Mrs. Meng would think that her mother was a vixen, and that her stepfather was thinking about the beautiful wife in the inner courtyard, so she didn't even think about going out.

Hey, can't you just live in peace?

However, to Mu Zhaozhao's surprise, Mrs. Meng treated their mother and daughter as gentle as before, and didn't mean to blame them. After all the women in charge went down, she said to the mother and daughter who were looking at the account book: " In a few days it will be the birthday of Master Wen, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, when the time comes, you mother and daughter will go for a walk with me, and you can also take the opportunity to meet more people."

Yu Wanniang stood up and responded respectfully: "Yes, my daughter-in-law rarely gets along with nobles in the past, so please tell me more about my daughter-in-law."

"I heard from Mother He that you have learned etiquette very well." Mrs. Meng smiled and comforted her: "Don't be nervous, you can just follow me when the time comes. Although Wenfu is the Minister of Rites, he can be regarded as a relative of our Mengfu."

Hearing this, Mu Zhaozhao's heart moved, and then he thought that he had heard Prince Qing and Miss Wen say that they would go to the Temple of Ci'en to appreciate cherries on May [-]th.

But now, listening to Mrs. Meng's words, she still treats Wenfu as a relative's house. Could it be that Qin Mu hasn't confessed this matter to the adults yet?

At this moment, Su Ye came in with a smile on his face, bowed his knees and saluted: "Madam, Master Biao is here."

Mrs. Meng really smiled now: "Please come in soon."

Although it is said that female relatives cannot meet outsiders, Mrs. Meng feels that one is the grandson's aunt and the other is a cousin, and they are both members of the same family, so there is no need to meet outsiders.

The little maid outside the door raised the bamboo curtain, and Qin Mu, who was dressed in a sky-blue round-neck fine cotton robe, came in, looked at Mu Zhaozhao with round eyes, and then turned his eyes away to greet him: "Grandmother, Ann, Great Aunt Ann."

Finally, he looked at Mu Zhaozhao with complicated eyes, and nodded, "Cousin."

He wanted his cousin to be more reserved and cautious, not to stare at him without blinking in front of the elders.

If you don't know how to restrain yourself like this, it's easy for the elders to see the clues.

Mu Zhaozhao was very curious about what he would do tomorrow, whether he would take the opportunity to expose them to the truth, or if he thought that someone in the court would be a good official, and for the sake of Wen Shangshu, the future father-in-law, he swallowed his anger and pretended it was nothing.

Therefore, after she really saw him coming in, she kept paying attention to his behavior, trying to see something.

But he remained as calm as ever.

Mu Zhaozhao also got up to greet him, with gossip in his eyes: "Cousin, are you taking a rest? How many days can you rest?"

Although she also wanted to watch the excitement, she was also worried about her embarrassing status. If she was seen by Miss Wen and the others, it would be bad to take the opportunity to take revenge in the future.

Therefore, we can only hope that he will go out and make a final decision in person.

"I'm going to rest today, and I'm going to leave Beijing with the commander tomorrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in ten days and a half." After Qin Mu finished speaking, he looked at his grandmother with burning eyes: "I don't know when uncle will come back. ? I have something to trouble uncle."

Now that the son is so old, Mrs. Meng naturally doesn't care if he will come back for lunch today, so she looks at Yu Wanniang: "Boss, did he say that when he left this morning?"

"Uncle didn't say anything when he left." Yu Wanniang was also embarrassed to say in front of her mother-in-law. When Meng Yu left, she was still in a daze of sleep, so she didn't know what he said in her ear. .
