The cook is very busy

Chapter 73
Mu Shaoyi was surprised, and loosened the strength of her hand. Mu Guanxiong was stunned on the spot, and he didn't react at the moment.

Ziqing looked at the book in his hand, then at the two father and son, laughed a few times, walked forward a few steps, and put the book back on the table.

She rubbed her hands, and saw that no one in the room was talking, she talked and said with a smile, "Master, do you have something to talk about, everything is going well with the family."

When Mu Guanxiong heard this sentence, half of the anger in his heart disappeared immediately. With a sullen face, he snorted coldly, walked to the other side of the desk and sat down.

Seeing Youxi, Ziqing tugged at Mu Shaoyi's sleeve, gave him a wink to let him go forward, then turned around and poured a cup of tea for the old man, thinking that he would have to calm down the old man, or he would have to talk again in a while. It hurt her little fish.

She just heard Mu Guanxiong yelling, and she was sure in her heart why the old man called her here today. It was because she sat in the back kitchen with Fourth Young Master for half the night that day, and now she asked people outside to spread rumors .

Although Ziqing didn't know the rules in this big house, the maid would not take it lightly if she took care of Young Master Ga, let alone a poor girl who was doing odd jobs in the back kitchen.

After pouring a cup of tea for the two of them, Ziqing was thinking about leaving, but Mu Guanxiong stopped her, looked him up and down, and then remembered that Zilong took off his robe at the family banquet a while ago. The jade hand hairpins during the banquet are all this girl.

Suddenly, he thought again, at the Shitai Shuixie family banquet that day, who was this kid defending? It wasn't that he couldn't see the old woman's thoughts at that time, but he was always thinking about home and everything, thinking about making big things small, trivialized.

However, thinking about it now, the fourth child is really unusual for this girl, Mu Guanxiong became angry again after thinking about it, and looked at Ziqing, "Why is it you again!"

Ziqing twitched the corners of her mouth, she also wanted to know why she was always the one who was unlucky, but now she had to choose to be a mute, the elder in the seat was furious, why did she say something wrong.

Mu Guanxiong watched, and slapped the table, "You girl, don't tell me you don't know. It's been spread all over the backyard these two days. Someday, what's going on with you and Fourth Young Master!"

Ziqing was in a dilemma for a while, mother, what did she say? She hid behind a tree that day and heard a lot of things she shouldn't have heard. How is she doing?
Seeing this, Mu Shaoyi was about to speak. Mu Guanxiong pointed at him and said angrily, "Shut up, fourth, I didn't ask you. If you want to protect this girl again, I will punish her immediately!"

As soon as Ziqing heard this, it meant that the master would not punish her, so that's a good thing, but what should I say.

She pondered for a while, then took a peek at Mu Shaoyi, and said, "Go back, master, the little one left the back kitchen and finished his work yesterday, so he went back to the other courtyard and took a shortcut. I saw Si Shao on the way, Si The young master, the fourth master said he was hungry, and the little one went to the back kitchen with the fourth master, and when we got there, the fourth master was tired from walking, no, I didn’t want to go..."

Mu Shaoyi heard Ziqing falter and haw a lot, but there was nothing unreasonable, so he gave her a cold look and sighed slightly.

Mu Guanxiong looked at Ziqing angrily, and stared at her. Perhaps he was self-aware and felt that the things he made up were not credible, so his voice gradually fell silent.

Then Mu Guanxiong slapped the table angrily again, pointing at her, "What a mess, I can't even listen to myself after talking so much, don't you usually look very clever, why are you so clever now?" Where did all the energy go!"

Ziqing choked, well, I really can't make it up now, the most annoying thing is that her calves are still shaking right now.

Mu Shaoyi reached out and patted the back of Pai Ziqing's head, "Wait for me outside."

Hearing this, Ziqing was eager to make a noise, and ran out without even daring to raise his head. If he had looked at Mr. Mu, he might have stopped her again.

After going out, Ziqing behaved himself this time, stood a little farther away, and waited at the gate of the yard, but he could still hear Mr. Mu roaring, "A while ago, you were still fighting for Yuxuan girl!" Annoyed, why did you follow again in a blink of an eye... You are still a rough girl in the back kitchen, look at how promising you are!"

After hearing this, Ziqing didn't know whether to be annoyed or angry, or should he rush back to the house and yell at the old man, what's wrong with the back kitchen, what's wrong with the rude girl, your son is just a rarity, your old man What are you doing!
However, without Ziqing rushing into the battle, Mu Shaoyi's voice came over. His tone was slow and clear, not loud, and he couldn't hear it all. He could only guess that what the four young masters said was similar to Ziqing's meaning.

Ziqing sighed softly, she quite agrees with what Si Shao said, but the timing is wrong now, isn't this guy adding fuel to the fire.

Sure enough, Old Master Mu yelled again, and this time even the two guards outside stuck their heads out to take a look, Ziqing pursed his lips, squatted on the ground and waited, watching the ants busy moving back and forth to eat .

About half an hour later, Mu Shaoyi came out, looking around for that thin figure, and saw that he was paddling around on the ground with a branch, like a child playing.

The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his tired expression was stained with a smile. He walked forward and said lightly, "Let's go."

Ziqing was stunned for a moment, then raised her head to see that Mu Shaoyi had already left the yard, she turned her head to look at He Xingtang, threw away the branch in her hand and followed.

Following the fourth young master all the way, he didn't say anything to drive her away, and Ziqing couldn't go back to the back kitchen, so he had to follow one after the other.

Some maids and servants passed by and saluted the four young masters one after another, but when they saw themselves, they were all dumbfounded, as if the rumors these days had been confirmed.

Reluctantly followed the Fourth Young Master to a pavilion, just like before, he was inside the pavilion and she was outside.

The breeze in the forest passed through, and lifted the man's clothes, a strand of blue silk was entwined with the breeze, and his figure was tall, clear and clear, making people daunting.

However, this time, in Ziqing's eyes, there was more loneliness. Ziqing wondered what she should say, or if the fourth young master had been standing here, she would not be able to go back even if she wanted to.

Thinking about it, Ziqing went forward, thinking to tell Si Shao that it's windy here, go back and add some clothes or something, and just fool him away, but in the end it was Mu Shaoyi who spoke first.

He looked into the distance, and said word by word to himself, "I have been in poor health since I was a child, and I was plagued by serious and minor illnesses. My father took great pains for me, seeking medical treatment and medicine, and never stopped."

"Only one time, I didn't want to drink the medicine and ran out of the house. My father followed me with a medicine bowl. It was also in this garden. My father forced me to drink it. I was so angry that I vomited it all on my father. on..."

As Mu Shaoyi spoke, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, she paused for a moment, and said, "I still remember that my father was so angry at that time, his robe was covered with medicine stains all over his face, he raised his hand at me, but he didn't let it go." On me, it was coaxing me to drink the medicine with good words, but now, my father is extremely angry with me, it's really a matter of life, and everything is different."

After hearing this, Ziqing couldn't help but feel a little helpless, the father and son really resemble each other, and the four young masters are younger, so they are now arguing.

She looked around and saw that no one was coming, so she went to the pavilion. The Fourth Young Master said these things to her because she wanted to find someone to chat with and relieve her depression.

But she didn't intend to follow his words, but said, "Actually, let me tell you, young master, you are making trouble for no reason today."

Mu Shaoyi paused slightly, then turned her head to look at the little girl, "Am I making trouble for no reason?"
