Mugui

Chapter 127
Lin Xiao called Lu Shan and Mu Chen to unload the goods, and sent all the things on the carriage to the main room.

Mu Chen appeared from nowhere, approached furtively, unloaded the goods like lightning, and disappeared again.

Lu Shan holding three bolts of silk: "..."

I haven't finished moving in one trip, isn't your speed a bit slapping me?

After hearing the sound, Mrs. Bao, who came to watch the excitement, entered the main room and asked Qiaoqiao to open all the boxes.

After looking around with her hands behind her back, Mrs. Bao stretched her waist and said, "There are a lot of things, basically only a few small things are missing."

Yang Mu's face was covered.

Lin Xiao explained: "The people from the Protector's Mansion are coming soon, people rely on clothes."

Yang Mu touched the fabrics, tugged at his sleeves, and said, "Is the quality not good?" This is a dress I just bought a few days ago, and it cost her 20 taels of silver!
Lin Xiao motioned her to look at the silks with his eyes, and said, "Put these on and save unnecessary trouble."

Yang Mu had already guessed what Lin Xiao and Mrs. Bao meant when he heard Lin Xiao say "save trouble".

It's not that he can't go back to Beijing in a plain dress, it's just that it will make the servants look down upon him, and secondly, it will appear that the Duke Huguo's mansion has no face.

There is no need to clarify things that can be avoided by a piece of clothing after the fact.

She is kind and willing to listen to everyone's reasonable opinions decisively.

The old lady Bao said: "Girl Mu, from today onwards, come to my room every night at you." After speaking, the old lady Bao left with her hands behind her back.

Yang Mu looked at the old lady's back in surprise, not knowing what was going on.

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up, and he whispered to Yang Mu, "Ms. Bao should be teaching you something about the backyard."

Seeing that Yang Mu still didn't understand, he said, "Madam Bao is a female official from the palace, and I only found out recently."

"Ah?" Yang Mu's eyes widened. She guessed that Mrs. Bao's identity was not simple, but she never thought about it in this direction.

Lin Xiao then told Yang Mu what the magistrate of Hang County had told him.

Yang Mu stared at Lin Xiao with wide eyes, "You mean, Mrs. Bao is not only a female official, but also the female official of the Empress Dowager?"

Lin Xiao nodded and said: "Emperor Xiaorui died in just half a year after ascending the throne, and there was no prince in the palace. The two empress dowagers took the regent's youngest son into the palace and canonized him as emperor. And the regent's biological mother is this An empress dowager."

Yang Mu suddenly realized, "In other words, the current emperor is the grandson of the empress dowager, and Mrs. Bao is the female official next to the empress dowager!"

Isn't this the same as the female officer next to the empress dowager?

Aunt Su Ma?

Lin Xiaodao: "I have heard people say that this female officer is a person who is very unlucky, especially unlucky. But if you meet someone with a compatible destiny, both parties will be lucky."

He pointed in the direction of the capital, and said, "The imperial concubine was just an unfavorable concubine of the Wang family back then. Ever since Aunt Bao made her a maid, this concubine of the Wang family has been treated by the concubine of the Wang family." Emperor Jiaji was selected into the palace and became Jieyu. Afterwards, the two supported each other and rose to the top."

Yang Mu pointed to himself and said, "So, she chose me?"

My European emperor physique was discovered by the old lady?

Lin Xiao reminded her, "Did you save Mrs. Bao many times?"

Yang Mu thought for a while, it seemed so.

Lin Xiaodao: "Presumably she has decided that you are the one she is destined to resolve the crisis. Then she should follow you to the capital and stay by your side."

He said with a smile: "With a female official of the fifth rank by your side, I don't worry about your danger in the backyard. Those backyard methods may not be able to escape the eyes of this old man in the palace."

Yang Mu realized that it was her who protected Mrs. Bao's safety, and Mrs. Bao in turn helped her gain a firm foothold in the house fight, mutual benefit!
After dinner, Yang Mu followed Mrs. Bao back to the wing in the backyard.

As soon as he entered the wing room, Yang Mu found that the room was much neater than before.She looked at Qiaoqiao who was pouring water for herself, this girl is quite capable.

The current Yang Mu doesn't know that this dark-skinned little girl has obsessive-compulsive disorder and cleanliness, and she will go crazy because of it in the not-too-distant future.

Granny Bao drank tea leisurely, and said frankly, "Do you know my identity?"

Yang Mu: "A fifth-rank female official?"

Mrs. Bao: "When did you know?"

Yang Mu: "Just now."

Mrs. Bao was silent for a second, and then said in a low voice, "Master Lin, you're a monkey with hair on it!"

Yang Mu said with a "puchi" smile: "So Aunt Bao is planning to follow me to the capital? The maid is also bought for me?"

Mrs. Bao gave her a white look, and said: "You are so beautiful, Qiaoqiao bought me a maid! I haven't found one that suits you yet."

"Are you really going to buy me a maid?" Yang Mu couldn't believe it. The old lady Bao was usually so stingy that she didn't even pay for her food, so how could she be willing to buy her a maid?
Old Madam Bao said, "Buy someone who knows how to read and write accounts, and I will take care of your outside business and small warehouse in the future."

Yang Mu doesn't know much about the ancient maid system, but it seems that among Jia Baoyu's many maids, Hua Xiren is in charge of accounts.

Seeing Yang Mu's bewildered expression, Mrs. Bao knew that she knew nothing about the backyard, so she sighed and said, "Let me tell you about the capital."

Yang Mu is still very interested in things in the capital, after all, he is going to live there soon.

Under the dim oil lamp, Mrs. Bao brewed a pot of scented tea and talked about it.

Yang Mu only listened for a few minutes before he was dumbfounded and said, "Wait a minute, I'm going to take notes!"

She ran out in "Xuuuuuuu", took the rice paper and charcoal pencils, and then ran back "Xuuuuuuu up", sitting at the table, like a schoolboy studying hard, staring eagerly at Mrs. Bao with eyes eager for knowledge.

"Mother, say what you just said, say it again!"

Granny Bao immediately turned dark, and regretted it for a moment, this little girl obviously doesn't have the keen cells of Zhaidou!

That's all, for her luck!

She took a deep breath and spoke again.

The current emperor is Emperor Longxing, who is only three years old, and the empress dowagers of the two palaces listen to the government behind the curtain.

In the entire Dashun Dynasty, the eight most powerful families were the four kings and four families.

Prince Ding's Mansion is one of the four princes, and Lin Xiao's father, Prince Ding Lin Mao, is the only prince of the opposite sex.

The Yang Family of the Protector's Mansion is one of the four families. The Protector Yang Cheng'en is already 60 years old, and the eldest son Yang Zhen is Yang Mu's father and the future Protector.

The Chen family, the wife of the Huguogong, is also Yang Mu's grandmother, who came from a family of poetry and etiquette in the south of the Yangtze River - the Chen family

The Tang family of the son of the eldest son Yang Zhen, that is, Yang Mu's aunt likes auntie.

……

An hour later, Yang Mu walked out of Mrs. Bao's room with stars in his eyes.

Help!

She needs a relative calculator!

Who can understand how confused an orphan is when he sees the names of cousin, cousin, aunt, and aunt, and how devastated he is when he sees the names of Congtang aunt and Congtang uncle!

Mrs. Bao's cramming education has reduced Yang Mu's expectation of going to the capital by half.

Yang Mu felt dizzy at the thought of having to go to school for many more days.

Back in the east room, Lin Xiao was sitting on her bed.

Yang Shitou was already asleep, and Qiuqiu was lying on his back beside Shitou. The unlucky Hei Daya was robbed by Lu Shan and went to the front yard, so he was not here.

Lin Xiao made a silent gesture to her, and said, "I just fell asleep."

Yang Mu was listless, as if his body had been hollowed out, and the lively appearance of Pin Li was completely gone.

It was the first time Lin Xiao saw her like this, and found it interesting, he said, "What's the matter? What did Mrs. Bao say?"
