The general's wife is pretending to be weak again

Chapter 16

Zhang family.

Facing the bronze mirror, Mu Qingling frowned delicately.From the mirror, she saw a scar on her neck, red and dazzling.

She resentfully threw the wooden comb in her hand on the table, thinking of the faces of the Hu family sisters, her teeth were still itchy with anger.

"County Lord," Xiaotao said timidly, afraid of offending Mu Qingling, "The old lady called you over, saying that the second and third misses of the Mu family are here."

With a "snap", it was Mu Qingling who threw the wooden comb to the ground viciously.As soon as Miss Mu's family was mentioned, the scene of humiliation last night came to mind again.

Xiaotao lowered her head and glanced at the comb, she was afraid that it might not be used again, it was newly bought two days ago.

Mu Qingling let out a deep breath, she closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again, her eyes were cold.

"Let's go."

Xiaotao hurriedly followed Mu Qingling to Mrs. Zhang's place.

The two of them didn't go far, when they saw a maid covering her face with her sleeves, crying and walking.

Mu Qingling stopped suddenly and asked, "What's going on?"

The servant girl was startled, seeing that it was Mu Qingling, she quickly lowered her hands in salute: "I've seen the county master."

"Why are you crying?" Mu Qingling asked.

The servant girl lowered her head, her voice choked up: "This servant accidentally bumped into the Sixth Young Master... It made the Sixth Young Master unhappy."

What she said was obscure, but Mu Qingling and Xiaotao immediately understood what was going on.

Zhang Shaotian, the sixth young master of the Zhang family, was ignorant of learning and skills when he was a child, and he was not a regular in eating, drinking and playing all day long.

Mu Qingling just came to live in Zhang's family, and Zhang Shaotian looked at her with malicious eyes.She taught Zhang Shaotian a few times, and now Zhang Shaotian ran away when he saw her.

Mu Qingling thought of something, and told Xiaotao: "Go and tell the Sixth Young Master, let him wait at the rockery pavilion, and a beauty will pass by later."

Xiaotao didn't dare to say anything more, and went as Mu Qingling ordered.

Mu Qingling sneered before going to Mrs. Zhang alone.

"My darling, why did you come out alone, where is Xiaotao?" Mrs. Zhang opened her hands as soon as she saw Mu Qingling.

Mu Qingling walked over and sat next to Mrs. Zhang.

"Xiao Tao was sent by me to do other things."

Mrs. Zhang said with concern: "It's too little to have only one Xiaotao by your side. You can pick a few from me to serve you someday."

Mu Qingling showed a smiling face: "There are so many people, I don't think it's troublesome, just Xiaotao. If I'm really not enough to handle, I'll ask my grandmother for it."

Hearing what Mu Qingling said, Mrs. Zhang felt a little relieved.

The grandparents and grandchildren were talking affectionately, while Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingqiu were left aside in the cold.

Mu Qingyu still had a quiet and dignified smile, while Mu Qingqiu was about to roll his eyes.

As expected, this big sister of hers was serving food to people, she was as cold as ice to them, and she was trying her best to please the elders.

She secretly arranged in her heart.

The grandfather and grandson talked for a long time before they seemed to think of Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingqiu.

Mrs. Zhang was the first to say: "Ling'er, your two younger sisters have come to see you."

Mu Qingling looked over, and when he saw Mu Qingyu, his eyes flickered slightly.Thinking of how she behaved lowly in front of Li Zhao last night, she was very annoyed.

It's not that he was upset about his affection for Li Zhao, but rather that his affection was discovered by others.That was the most beautiful thing she kept in her heart.

Meeting Mu Qingling's gaze, Mu Qingyu stood up gracefully, followed by Mu Qingqiu.

Mu Qingyu lowered his body first, and said timidly: "Sister, we came here this time to apologize to my sister. My sister was bullied last night, and my third sister and I watched helplessly as my sister was raped by the Duke of Yan's mansion." Sisters bullied and did nothing."

As she spoke, her tone was choked with sobs: "My third sister and I entered the palace for the first time last night, and we were really frightened, but it was our fault in the end that my sister was injured."

She lowered her head: "I also ask my sister to forgive the two of us."

Mu Qingqiu continued, "Please forgive me, sister."

In her heart, she was secretly admiring, she didn't expect Mu Qingyu to be so good at talking.In this way, if Mu Qingling doesn't forgive them, he just doesn't understand the general situation.

Sure enough, Mu Qingling couldn't say a single serious word after listening to Mu Qingyu finish speaking.The wound on his neck was painful, and the bullying and humiliation he suffered last night was stuck in his heart, unable to vent.

For a long time, Mu Qingling did not speak.Mu Qingyu's legs were a little sore, she raised her head, and said timidly: "As long as my sister can vent her anger, if she wants to be beaten or punished, my third sister and I will have no complaints."

"Okay, okay," Mrs. Zhang said quickly, "You two little girls, get up quickly, your big sister has already forgiven you."

But Mu Qingyu just looked at Mu Qingling timidly, and didn't get up.

Mrs. Zhang pushed Mu Qingling calmly, and said, "What are you servants doing standing there? Why don't you help them up quickly? Go to the small kitchen to see if the snacks are ready, and the tea is too It's getting cold, go get a new pot."

Mrs. Zhang greeted her warmly. She always understood that Mu Qingling was from the Mu family after all.If there is too much trouble with the Mu family, it won't do Mu Qingling any good.

Only then did Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingqiu get up and sit down, enjoying the hospitality of Zhang's family.The mission of the two of them for this trip is completed, and they can go back after sitting for a while, and this matter is considered to be over.

Mu Qingling glanced at Mu Qingyu calmly, her thin lips tightly pursed.If the second master Mu really took Ding Guo Gong away, how would she gain a foothold in Ding Guo Gong's mansion in the future?
Maybe if others talk about her behind her back, it will be even worse.

Thinking of this, her eyes became darker.

"Grandmother, it's the first time for the two younger sisters to come here. I want to take them to the rockery." Mu Qingling looked at Mrs. Zhang, and put on a gentle smile again.

Mu Qingyu's eyelids twitched. Mu Qingling had always been arrogant to the younger sisters of the Mu family.How can you condescend to take them to the rockery?
"Alright," Mrs. Zhang patted Mu Qingling's hand, "You sisters can also talk."

Mu Qingling got up, and Mu Qingyu and Mu Qingqiu had no choice but to get up. After the three saluted Mrs. Zhang again, Mu Qingling took them out.

The Zhang family has a deeper heritage than the Mu family, and the Zhang family is also much bigger.The three of them walked for quite a while, and Mu Qingyu broke out in a thin layer of sweat before reaching the so-called rockery.

Mu Qingling sneezed suddenly, she covered her mouth with her sleeve in embarrassment, and said muffledly: "I feel a little cold, I need to go back and put on some clothes."

She pointed to a small path with her other hand, "Go straight along this path, and there is a pavilion. You wait for me in the pavilion, and I will pass there soon."

Just as Mu Qingyu and the others were about to leave, Mu Qingling suddenly said, "By the way, the third aunt asked me for a trick last time, and the third sister came with me, so let's take it by the way."
