Jinyi Music

Chapter 212
Just when everyone was looking at Mou Biao with smiles on their faces, Mou Biao's expression darkened, his eyes rolled up, and just about to say something,

"Miss You Jiu gave me a good screen. Did I say I would take it? Hurry up and send it back to me..."

On the other end, Mu Bin snorted softly,
"uh-huh……"

Everyone turned their attention to Mou Bin when they heard it. Mou Bin glanced at the eldest daughter-in-law and said in a deep voice,
"Miss You Jiu is really too polite!"

After finishing speaking, he turned to Liu and said,
"Lao Ba is now a member of the yamen. It is his job to patrol the city defense and assist in the management of law and order. Under the circumstances of that day, Lao Ba should take action. The etiquette of in-laws is indeed a bit heavy. You choose If you return something in return, and then tell your in-laws, it’s all about your in-laws, don’t be so polite!”

What I said was very clear. When everyone heard what Mou Bin meant, they all suppressed their smiles and dared not look at Third Sister You. At that time, Third Sister You clenched her lips and blushed. After thinking about it, I still fought for my sister,
"Father, the gift of thanks is also the wish of my ninth sister, father, you..."

Mu Bin looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and nodded, saying,
"Miss You Jiajiu's wishes, of course, we must understand, but Lao Ba is still young, as a father, he only wants him to make contributions, and let the rest of the matter be put aside for now..."

Third Sister You understood that her father-in-law really did not want this marriage. Neng nodded dejectedly,

"Yes, father-in-law!"

Mou Wen couldn't bear his wife's sadness, so he stretched out his hand under the table and gently pinched her to comfort her, but in this family Mou Bin had a lot of prestige, even the eldest son, he didn't have the courage to ask the reason face to face, but they didn't know , this is for Mu Bin to take care of the You family's face, if the youngest son is allowed to speak out in public, the eldest daughter-in-law will be even more embarrassing!

So the originally bustling dining table fell into a weird silence. Only Mou Biao didn't feel embarrassed at all, and kept eating as usual. After eating a bowl, he stretched out his hand to the back. After taking a bowl, he glanced at the young lady with her head down and thought to herself,

"Hmph! The You family has a good idea. They have married a daughter and come in, and they want to marry another one. Our eighth young master will be the commander of the Jinyiwei in the future. Except for the princess, what kind of woman can't marry?"

After a meal, everyone dispersed. Mou Bin returned to Mrs. Liu's main room. Mrs. Liu took care of her husband to remove his coat, and asked the women to bring water to wash up. Mrs. Liu looked at her husband carefully, asked for a while,
"Master, you don't want others to tell you about the eighth marriage. You talk about it with me, so I know well..."

Mu Bin glanced at Mrs. Liu and replied,
"Old Ba's marriage, I promised him his own marriage..."

Liu was startled,
"Master, you... You spoiled me too much... None of the children in this family, big and small, can marry independently. You only allowed Lao Bayi, which is too partial!"

Mu Bin snorted,

"Don't blame me for being biased, it's because Lao Ba has this ability, and he has contributed a lot to the affairs in the yamen..."

After a pause, he said,
"If the children in this family can be as promising as the eighth child, I may have their own marriage..."

After finishing speaking, he squinted at Liu Shidao,
"Just... If I allow them to marry independently, are you willing?"

Liu's face froze, and after a while he said,

"Who among the young masters and young ladies of everyone can marry independently, they won't be afraid of being laughed at if it spreads!"

Now that the children in this family are grown up, there are not many things for her as the head of the house to control the concubines and daughters. This is the first major marriage event. Isn't the authority greatly discounted?
This is absolutely impossible!

Mou Bin, a husband and wife who has been married for many years, also understands her thoughts, and said to her,

"Don't worry... Lao Ba will not marry a high-ranking daughter-in-law, and he will never go past Mou Wen..."

Mrs. Liu knew her husband's temperament. Although he was reticent, he would do what he said and would never lie to himself. He relaxed a little and said with a smile,

"What did the master say, I just hope that the children will be well..."

After a pause, he tried again,
"Listen to what the master means, does this old eight have a sweetheart?"

Mu Bin nodded, but didn't say any more, just said to her,
"Go to bed first, I'll read a book later!"

This room called someone to light the lamp on the soft couch in front of the window, and she half leaned on the couch to read a book. Mrs. Liu went back to the inner room, sat on the bed and thought for a while, called the maid who was serving her closely, and whispered: ,

"Let the people in Wu Yiniang's yard inquire about it. Is there someone in Eighth Young Master?"

The girl went as ordered, Liu took off her shoes, half leaned on the bed, looked at the light coming in from the outer room, and said bitterly in her heart,

"Just spoil him like this, let's see how long you can spoil him!"

The things that Ms. Jiu Jiajiu sent back were included in the return gifts from the Mou family. It is self-evident what the Mou family meant. Ms. Youjiu burst into tears when she saw it. Mrs. Guan persuaded her,
"The thoughts of the eighth young master of the Mou family are clear now, and you should give up. If you continue to make trouble, let alone your father, I will not spare you!"

Miss You Jiu lay on the quilt crying until the pear blossoms were raining,
"Mom, I just can't figure it out. He...why does he look down on me, I...how can I make him look down on me?"

Guan sighed.

"Son, whoever can tell clearly about this man and woman, if you look right, even a blind man and a lame will feel pain in your heart. If you don't look right, even a fairy is in front of you, and you will treat it as dross. Now you You are still young, so you don't understand the reason behind it, but when you grow up, you will understand!"

Miss You Jiu was still crying,

"Mom, I'm not reconciled, I'm going to ask him..."

Guan's face darkened,

"Jiu'er, every lady should have the demeanor of a lady. We first showed our love to the Mou family. We have already lost the reserve of our daughter's family. If you go to pester me again, even if you marry into the Mou family in the future, he will still marry you." Do you take it seriously?"

Hustle is not a business, and the melons you get by force are not sweet. Why can't this kid figure it out, and insist on digging into the horns?
Miss You Jiu cried,

"Mother, I'm not that shameless person. Now he's begging me to marry, and I won't marry. I just don't understand, and I want to ask him..."

Seeing her daughter being so stubborn, Guan said angrily,
"You are not allowed to go, this matter is over now, if you dare to go, I will break your legs!"

After saying that, Mrs. Guan dropped her daughter and turned to go out. When she got out of the inner room, she summoned the people around her daughter and said,

"All of you should keep an eye on Miss Nine for my wife, and report to her immediately if she leaves the house, if anyone hides it and refuses to report..."

Speaking of this, Guan's gaze swept across everyone's faces sharply, seeing that everyone bowed their heads and did not dare to look at them, so he snorted in satisfaction,
"Don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between master and servant!"

Mou Biao naturally didn't know about the affairs of You's family. At the dinner table, Mu Bin helped him take over the matter. He immediately forgot Miss You Jiu, but he was thinking about the hot summer this year, and Silian was tired every day. , find a way to get her out of the city, it's good to escape the heat!
Now that he thinks about it, he regrets it a little. If he knew it earlier, he should have proposed marriage earlier and married Si Lian back home. Then he can go wherever he wants, and he doesn't need to hide from Jia Jincheng!

"How can I get Silian out of the city?"

Mou Biao scratched his scalp for a while, but Mou Long came up with a way.
"Master, I have an idea!"

"Oh... hurry up!"

Mou Biao immediately regained his spirits, Mou Long said,

"A few days ago, I heard that the village outside the city was short of maids. My wife was talking about selling some girls outside..."

He paused to see the puzzled expression on Mou Biao's face,

"I'm just thinking, why don't you just tell Jia Jincheng that there is a shortage of people in the village, and ask Miss Silien to help cook for a month, and the monthly silver payment will be higher, Jia Jincheng will definitely agree..."

As for leaving the city, whether Si Lian went to help the cook or go sightseeing, that's beyond Jia Jincheng's ability to know!

Mou Biao was overjoyed when he heard the words,

"This method is good!"

After thinking about it, he added,
"I'm going to tell you about it. It's really a mark, so it's better for you to say it..."

Mou Long nodded, pulled his brother aside and said,
"Mou Hu, go, it's up to you whether Miss Silian can go!"

Mou Hu grinned when he heard the words, and glared at Mou Long. Is this his brother?If he has something to say, he will move his mouth, and he will break his leg. It is up to you whether Miss Silian can go. If Miss Silian goes, you will take the lead. If Miss Silian does not go, I will be beaten!
Why is my life so hard, with such a brother?

Mou Biao nodded his head and said,
"Mou Hu, you go...remember to ask for a higher price..."

Mou Hu had no choice but to accept the order, but he didn't go to see Si Lian, but found Jia Jincheng in the yamen, pretending that an old acquaintance had something good to do to you,

"Old Jia, the weather is hot, and the masters of the family are going out of the city to escape the summer heat, but we have recently released a group of people in the village outside the city, and now the stove is short of manpower, and Madam is afraid that the training will not be good for a while. Instead, he was delaying things, so he planned to find some acquaintances with good hands and feet outside, to help him for a month, and then slowly adjust the staff..."

Having said that, Mou Hu laughed and said,

"We are so familiar, such a good thing, why should I keep it for you..."

After saying that, he stretched out his fingers to make a two-pointer, after thinking about it, he stretched out all five fingers,
"Five taels of silver a month, Lao Jia... Do you think this is a good thing?"

When Jia Jincheng heard the words, he also felt that it was a good thing, so he smiled and cupped his hands at him,
"Brother Mou Hu is really loyal. For such a good thing, I thought of my old Jia first...Thank you!"

Mou Hu smiled and said,

"What kind of friendship do we have, you're welcome..."

After a pause,

"Old Jia, but I have to say this first. Our wife runs the house very strictly. Those who work on the stove can't be stealthy or lazy. Let me see...Miss Silian is usually capable, you called me If she goes, there will be no delay!"
