Black-bellied Xianggong: Cute wife is not easy to mess with

Chapter 50 Two matchmakers
After daybreak, when Mu Qingwan went to pay her respects to the main room, the Kang family told her the news.

Mu Qingwan was stunned immediately: "Let Fool Nie escort Yueniang home? Whose idea is this?"

Kang said: "It was your father who went to ask the eldest son of the Bai family, the person recommended by the eldest son of the Bai family. I also thought about it carefully, only this idiot Nie is the most suitable to send off Yueniang. I heard that he has some kung fu , even the eldest son of the Bai family praised it; secondly, the most important thing is that he is a fool, so he will send it off, so there will be no gossip."

It turns out that people are stupid, and there are such benefits. Mu Qingwan thought about it, and besides Nie Tai'an, it seemed that she really couldn't find another suitable candidate, so she nodded, called Li Yueniang, and told her about the matter. .

At this time, Li Yueniang was eager to return home. Hearing that the Mu family had made proper arrangements, and that the escort was Bai Yusong's friend Nie Tai'an, she nodded on the spot out of 120 million willingness.

In the coming days, the Mu family will be busy with many things. I am afraid that they will neglect Li Yueniang and neglect the guests. The Kang family simply stepped up the arrangements and put Li Yueniang into the carriage the next day. .

Mu Qingwan was worried, and asked Jinyu to follow Li Yueniang, send her home safely, and then come back with Nie Tai'an; and she herself sent Li Yueniang all the way to the gate of the city, and then dragged Nie Taian to warn and threaten her, saying After a long pass, I just turned around.

Nie Taian was riding on the horse, crooked, which made the servants who accompanied him fearful that he would fall off, but it was a coincidence that no matter how much he swayed, he was still tightly stuck to the horse's back and never fell off halfway. .Not long after leaving the city gate, I heard someone chasing and shouting: "Master! Master!"

Nie Tai'an yelled: "Wan Ren and Hu Po are here." Then he jumped off the horse and ran towards the two people who were chasing after him, scaring the servants into a cold sweat.

The three of them finally came to one place, and Wan Ren said angrily, "Young master, we're only going out to work for two days, and you're going away?"

Amber was very worried: "There is no one to take care of you on the road, do you care? How about I go with you?"

Nie Tai'an looked back at the carriage and said, "The third girl of the Mu family has sent a maid to follow her, and someone will take care of her."

The corners of Hu Po's lips slid down a little, and she said, "That's for Miss Li, not for you."

Wan Ren glanced at Hu Po, and said, "Why don't I follow, young master, you have to pretend to be stupid, and if something happens, it's not easy to come forward and deal with it."

Nie Tai'an raised his fist, beat him hard, and cursed: "You have the nerve to say, if you hadn't encouraged me to wear this dress that day, I wouldn't have been recognized by the young master of the Bai family, if I If he hadn't been recognized by the young master of the Bai family, he wouldn't have found out that I had skills, and if he hadn't found out that I had skills, he wouldn't have recommended me to the Mu family to escort Miss Li back to De'an County!"

He spoke a long story in one breath, Wan Ren was stunned for a moment, and just now he understood the relationship here, he couldn't help laughing: "Young master, don't you already enjoy it, and plan to persuade the eldest son of the Bai family to go to Beijing to participate in the martial arts? Right now Why are you complaining again?"

"I wanted to take the young master of the Bai family to the capital, but I didn't want to escort Miss Li to De'an!" Nie Tai'an punched him again angrily, then turned and walked back, "I'm a fool. If you talk too much, you will be suspicious."

Already talked a lot, okay... Wan Ren and Hu Po were quite speechless, but they chased after him for a long time before reluctantly leaving.

Let's say that when Mu Qingwan returned home, as soon as she got out of the carriage and stepped over the threshold, she saw two women dressed as matchmakers pushing and shoving towards the outside, abusing each other as they walked.What is this for?Did you come to her house to propose a marriage, or did you come to her house to quarrel?Mu Qingwan was baffled by the sight, and subconsciously covered her face with a veil, retreated to the side, and prepared to wait for them to pass before entering the door.

But the matchmaker's eyes are sharp, and even though they were arguing, they still saw her, and immediately they ran over together, one said: "The third girl is born with a dignified appearance, and she is destined to be the eldest son's daughter-in-law." The other said: "The eldest son Daughter-in-law is just a false name, what matters, as a daughter-in-law, the most important thing is that the husband is valued at home, and his status will rise accordingly."

What is this all about?Mu Qingwan was at a loss.They didn't know how to get out, but luckily Xiao Cui'er rushed out and drove the two matchmakers away, and finally rescued her.

Mu Qingwan looked back at the two unidentified matchmakers, and asked curiously, "Who are they? What are they here for?"

It's against the rules to say this to an unmarried girl, but at this time there are no outsiders, so there's no harm in whispering, Xiao Cui'er looked around, and lowered her voice: "Third Miss, it's a strange thing, and you won't even tell me what happened." Believe it or not, those two matchmakers were actually sent by the Bai family, but one proposed marriage for the eldest son of their family, and the other proposed marriage for the second son of their family. The one who proposed marriage for the eldest son of the Bai family was their wife; It was Bai Cai who proposed marriage for the second son of their family, do you think this is strange?"

Why, has the fight between wives and concubines in the Bai family entered a white-hot stage?Mu Qingwan suddenly thought of Yuhuashi, and blurted out, "Where's my father?"

Xiao Cui'er looked up at the backyard, and said: "Because of the matter of the two matchmakers, the wife called the master back, but the master ignored the matter of the matchmaker's proposal of marriage, and just lost his temper there, I don't know why. For what?"

"Go, take a look." Mu Qingwan said, walking towards the backyard.

In the main room in the backyard, Mu Changguang was really losing his temper, standing in the hall and scolding angrily: "It's just a concubine, what is it, she actually wants to drag me into the water, so that she can force me to marry Qingwan to her son, she will also You underestimated me too much!"

When Mu Changguang lost his temper, Kang never dared to get close to him, so he huddled on a chair by the door, as if he was about to escape at any time.Mu Qingwan walked over and asked softly, "Mother, what happened?"

When Kang saw Mu Qingwan, it was as if he saw a life-saving straw. He quickly grabbed her hand, took the opportunity to leave the living room, and went to her room.After sitting down in the west chamber, Mu Changguang's roaring voice was cut off, and Kang's tight strings relaxed a little, and he told Mu Qingwan what happened.

It turned out that Aunt Huang, who had always been doing whatever she wanted in the Bai family, was sued by Bai Yusong, the eldest son of their family, to Bai Caiban because of the fake Yuhua Stone and the false price. After extra service, he was going to help her cover up the matter, but now his wife, Mrs. Xiao, was unwilling, and after a fierce argument with Aunt Huang, she actually brought the matter to the county magistrate Liang.

Originally, this was just a housework, so what's the matter with Liangzhi County?But a few Yuhua stones in the district can afford 2000 taels of silver in vain, so there is a big problem.In order to settle the matter, Bai Caiban sent Aunt Huang to go out, and planned to start with Aunt Qin, the concubine of Liangzhi County, and begged her to give Liang Zhixian a pillow breeze, so that Liang Zhixian could take it as a housework for his subordinates. meddled.

Things have progressed to this point. In fact, it has nothing to do with the Mu family, but the bad thing is Aunt Huang. She remembered that Mu Changguang didn't agree to Bai Yubai's marriage with Mu Qingwan last time, so she took this opportunity to make more troubles. Aunt Qin coaxed her to agree to mention Mu Changguang in front of the magistrate of Liang, and let the magistrate of Liang investigate Mu Changguang's corruption and bribery.

At the same time, she persuaded Bai Caiban to send a matchmaker to Mu's house. This intention was obvious——Mu Changguang either agreed to her marriage proposal, and it didn't happen; once Mu Changguang refused again The magistrate of Liang will investigate this marriage immediately.

This is a naked threat, no wonder Mu Changguang is furious.

Mu Qingwan knew that Mu Changguang finally resolved the matter, but he offended Aunt Tan because of it. This caused Shi Tianci to get close to Aunt Tan a few months later in order to bring down the Mu family. It hit it off with her.

Therefore, what she was worried about was not that this matter could not be resolved, but that Mu Changguang would offend Aunt Tan again, just like in his previous life.

Since she time traveled and was reborn, and still had the timeline in hand, she naturally couldn't let this matter develop according to the original track. After listening to what Kang said, Mu Qingwan immediately stood up and went to the main room.

In the hall of the main room, Mu Changguang was still furious. It seemed that after several years of peaceful life, he was really pissed off this time.

Mu Qingwan went into the living room, poured a cup of herbal tea, offered it to Mu Changguang, and said, "Father, I've heard everything from my mother. Aunt Huang just made Aunt Qin happy by relying on her money, but She has a lot of money, are you poor again? As long as you give twice as much money as her, Aunt Tan will definitely turn against you immediately." After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but persuade: "Father, I dare not advise you to stop embezzling again. Accepting bribes, after all, everyone is like this, if you deliberately keep your innocence, you will be rejected instead, but there is a limit to everything, and it is not good to pass it."

"You need to teach me these things?!" Mu Changguang was furious, "When others bring money to your door, do you want me to push it away? Besides, I took the money and did things for them. I'm sorry. The conscience of heaven and earth!"

Well, it doesn't matter if you don't listen to persuasion, Shi Tianci will let him learn his lesson anyway.Mu Qingwan didn't make a sound.

Mu Changguang lost his temper, and suddenly realized that he was angry in the wrong direction, so he hurriedly brought the subject back, and said, "I'm a big man, can I use the same tricks as my concubine? I don't have to give Aunt Tan half a penny, and I don't need to give money to Auntie Qin. Let the magistrate of Liang not investigate me."

Mu Qingwan absolutely believes that Mu Changguang has this ability. He did this in his previous life, but the so-called villain is hard to guard against. If he hadn't offended Aunt Tan this time, how could the Mu family lose so quickly in the future?So she withstood Mu Changguang's pressure to yell again, and urged: "Aunt Qin is not an ordinary concubine, she is an old lady from Liang Zhi County's family, and she was given to him when Liang Zhi County became an official. , it was not his wife, but this Aunt Tan, and only this Aunt Tan, who accompanied Liang Zhixian to go to various posts. It can be seen that she is not only backed by the old lady of the Liang family, but also has some means. Such A character, even if there is no such thing as Aunt Huang, Dad should deliberately repair it with him. Of course, as a man, it is not easy for Dad to come forward in this kind of thing, but don’t you still have my mother? Besides housework, isn't it just for this kind of thing?"
