Rebirth of Splendid Heaven

Chapter 103
It was rare for Master Hou to side with An Mujin all at once. He was no longer hindered by others, and insisted that An Mujin was not wrong.

Not long after the old lady left, An Muxue also angrily pulled the old lady to leave, saying: "Mother, let's go too, now father only has Erniang and sister Jin'er in his eyes, not us at all." .What are we still doing here, is it annoying?"

Master Hou's face was a little ugly, he glanced at An Muxue, said nothing, but said to the eldest lady: "Your Majesty, I entrust you to take care of the affairs of the house, and I have always trusted you. But you The things I have done recently have disappointed me more and more. From today on, Yushu will help take care of the affairs of the mansion, and make you less tired."

The eldest lady looked at Lord Hou in shock, she didn't expect that he would directly deprive herself of the right to be the mistress in this way, and even call another woman Yushu in front of her.Although Yushu was originally the name of the little lady, but the name Yushu has been replaced by the big lady for 20 years. How can Master Hou tell the difference?

"Father, what you are doing is not fair to my mother. My mother has been managing the Hou Mansion for 20 years, and she knows everything. Er Niang only knows how to eat and drink. What does she know?" An Muxue was the first to be unwilling. Yelled at Master Hou.

Hou Ye's face was extremely ugly, he glared at An Muxue, and said angrily: "It's not your turn to intervene in what father decides."

An Mujin wanted to refute, but the eldest lady stopped her, and said to the little lady with a forced smile: "Sister, I will trouble you to help me share the burden from now on."

The little lady smiled, and replied generously and decently: "Master Hou did this for the betterment of the Hou Mansion, and I will take it seriously."

Seeing what the little lady said so well, the big lady's heart sank suddenly, thinking that the little lady must have planned to manage the Hou's mansion very early.

Feeling uncomfortable, the eldest lady didn't show too much on her face, she was still smiling.

Seeing that the little lady agreed, Hou Ye breathed a sigh of relief, "Yushu, let's go back together."

If Master Hou asked the young lady to share the housework, the eldest lady could still hold back that tone, but now seeing Lord Hou only walking with the young lady in front of her, she couldn't swallow this breath no matter what.

When Master Hou and the little lady turned to leave, the face of the eldest lady became extremely distorted and extremely hideous.

An Mujin has been paying attention to the changes in the eldest lady, and when she saw her ferocious face, she was also taken aback.

Feeling that An Mujin was looking at her, the eldest lady turned her head and smiled at An Mujin, "Jin'er, take good care of your body, let's go first."

I didn't expect that the eldest lady could pretend so well, she could immediately put on a grim face, and immediately change into a smiling face.

After everyone left, An Mujin asked people to replace everything on the bed with new ones.

It was busy for a while, and it was getting dark.It snowed heavily outside before dinner, and the goose feathers were piled up, which looked very beautiful.

This snow has been falling intermittently for ten days, and the thickness of a chopstick is piled up on the ground.

Because of the snow, An Mujin didn't go to the old lady's place to say hello, and stayed in Jinxiu Garden.But the news was heard a lot, and the first thing to talk about was An Yunyao.

An Yunyao took a walk. An Mujin is a monster. After doing such a thing, she even tried to come to the Hou's mansion for the New Year.On the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, An Yunyao brought her family to the Hou Mansion, but was kicked out by the Hou Ye on the spot.

An Yunyao cried loudly at the gate of the Hou's Mansion, attracting many people to watch. Master Hou kept a cold face and said nothing, but he refused to let An Yunyao enter the Hou's Mansion.

An Yunyao is a person who can persevere. After a full day of trouble, seeing that Lord Hou really didn't let go at all, she went home angrily at night.This anger made An Yunyao sick, and she was lying on the bed and couldn't get out of bed.

After the young year, An Yunyao's health improved slightly, and she came to the Hou Mansion to make trouble again.She can speak well by herself, sitting on the steps of Hou's mansion, saying that Hou Ye has no conscience and won't let her go home for the New Year.

It was the end of the new year, and it was the busiest time for Master Hou. He didn't have time to pay attention to An Yunyao, so he specially hired a few domestic servants who knew kung fu to guard the door.As long as An Yunyao comes, she will be kicked out, and she will not be allowed to enter the gate of the Hou's mansion.

The old lady felt uncomfortable when she found out about this.What she cared about was not An Yunyao, but the attitude of Master Hou.Master Hou dared to be so cruel to An Yunyao, all because of An Mujin.And she was not good to An Mujin before, and Hou Ye's attitude towards her was getting colder and colder day by day.

She is old now, and she is afraid that one day Lord Hou will not even recognize her as an old mother.So she was also worried all day long, asking Yuanyang if she was going too far with An Mujin.

Yuanyang has a clear mind. Hearing what the old lady said, she knew that she regretted it. She didn't directly say that the old lady had gone too far, but said euphemistically: "My servant thinks that the second lady is gentle and kind, and she is a good girl. This time She was also forced to do nothing, otherwise how could a girl ruin her reputation and make everyone think she is a monster."

The old lady felt that what Yuanyang said made sense, she took Yuanyang's hand and said: "Don't look at me as the old lady of the Hou Mansion, sometimes I also have my own difficulties. Yuanyang, you are a good girl, and you will be sixteen after the new year , It’s no small thing, if you fancy a servant, tell me, I’ll make the decision for you. Otherwise, after a hundred years…”

"Don't talk about it, old lady, Yuanyang only wishes to protect the old lady for the rest of her life." Yuanyang said hurriedly with a blushing face, interrupting the conversation of the old lady.

The old lady clapped her hands and said with a smile, "What a silly child!"

After a pause, the old lady said again: "I see that you have a good relationship with Jin'er, please send her a few things for me, and take it as my heart and apology as a grandmother."

The mandarin duck said yes, went to the small warehouse, took some things for girls, and showed the old lady.The old lady thought that Yuanyang had a good eye, so she gave these as gifts.

When Yuanyang went to Jinxiu Garden, An Mujin hadn't gotten up yet.It was really too cold, it was the first time she was so lazy, and Yuanyang saw her.

An Mujin blushed, extremely embarrassed: "Sister Yuanyang, Jin'er will never dare to do such a shameful thing again, or you will see it again."

"It's too cold, Second Miss should lie down, don't need to get up, so as not to catch a cold. I will also bring the gift from the old lady to Second Miss, and I will leave in a while." Yuanyang opened the things, and it was a pair of crystals. A bracelet, a few pairs of earrings, and two sandalwood hairpins.

An Mujin looked at Yuanyang puzzledly: "Sister Yuanyang, why did grandma suddenly give me this?"

"Second Miss, the old lady is old, sometimes it is inevitable that she only listened to other people's one-sided words, so she said that to the second lady. Afterwards, the old lady regretted it. I really can't blame the second lady for this matter. You should treat the second lady like that. In the room, the old lady kept holding my hand and said sorry to you. I suggested that the old lady give you something. If the second lady accepts it, it means that the old lady is forgiven. Second lady, you Just keep it." Yuanyang is very good at talking, and An Mujin feels very comfortable when talking.

"Sister Yuanyang, I understand. Grandmother is also good to me." An Mujin took the things, Yuanyang said that the old lady couldn't do without her, put on her cloak and left.

As soon as the mandarin ducks left, the smile on An Mujin's face disappeared, and she said to Mama Lin who was sewing beside her, "Mother Lin, what do you mean by this old lady?"

Mother Lin smiled, "Mom thinks that the old lady did this not purely because of guilt, there must be other reasons. Since the young lady has accepted the old lady's things, forget the unpleasantness of the past, people always have to look forward."

"Mom is right." An Mujin laughed.

While talking, Ruju came in through the curtain, her little face was wrinkled together, and she said tremblingly: "Miss, the second aunt brought someone to make trouble again."

"Bake it first." An Mujin saw how cold she was, and said quickly.

After roasting for a while, Ruju began to say: "The Chinese New Year is only two days away, and the second aunt is getting more and more troublesome every time. This time even the second uncle and uncle are brought here, and their family is standing at the door, look People who passed by said that Master Hou is not kind."

After hearing Ruju finish speaking, An Mujin shook his head helplessly.An Yunyao is not only selfish, she only thinks of herself, she is also persistent and cheeky.

"It's just that I'm sorry for my aunt. His health is not good. He just arrived in the capital, and he hasn't adapted yet. He was tortured by the second aunt like this, and now he's getting sick again." Ning Yan said from the side.

"Who says no? I think it is very difficult for my aunt to stand at the door. But the second aunt was too strong and insisted on letting my aunt stand. As a result, my aunt fell down and is still in a coma. I don't know what the second If my aunt makes such a fuss, will Master Hou let go of his mouth?" Ruju sighed.

An Mujin didn't say anything. These things were beyond her control, and she didn't want to be involved in them.

On the night of the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, An Yunyao came to the Hou's mansion in filial piety clothes, and cried loudly that Master Hou had forced Kong Zhanpeng to death, and asked Master Hou to give a daughter to be buried with Kong Zhanpeng.

When things got to this point, Master Hou couldn't continue to hide, so he asked An Yunyao to take off his filial piety clothes and brought her to Qinxiang Garden.

As soon as An Yunyao saw the old lady, she told all the bad things that Lord Hou had done to her.

Seeing An Yunyao crying like this, the old lady sighed, and waited for her to finish crying before saying: "You have to blame yourself!"

"Mother, I am also your daughter, why do you insist on being so cruel to me? It was agreed before, let us come back to celebrate the New Year, but the elder brother suddenly changed his mind and refused to even let me enter the Marquis Mansion. What can I do?" ?" An Yunyao cried miserably, speaking as if she was wronged.

The old madam understood now, and said sharply, "If you didn't do that to Jin'er, would your elder brother treat you like this?"

An Yunyao was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears again, "Jin'er scared my Zhan Peng into being sick for half a month, and I haven't settled the matter with her yet. Now, now..."

"That's enough, don't talk about it." Master Hou couldn't listen anymore, "An Yunyao, don't go too far. You are a married daughter. Look, there is a daughter who celebrates the New Year at her mother's house. Don't say it again. Make a fuss, otherwise I won't let you enter the Marquis Mansion on the second day of the first lunar month."

Seeing that Master Hou was too firm, An Yunyao didn't want to completely sever relations with the Hou's mansion, so she agreed: "It's fine not to spend the New Year in the Hou's mansion, but I will send Zhan Peng here. He is very sick now, big brother You know a lot of doctors, so it would be better for him to recuperate in the Hou's mansion than in the Confucius mansion."
