The concubine will not accompany you: General, Madam ran away again

Chapter 22 A Clothes

Mu Shuyao just stood there quietly, but she heard a female voice behind her: "Ah, Shuyao, why are you standing here?"

"I've seen my mother." Mu Shuyao turned around to salute, and then explained with a smile on her face: "The fifth younger sister was talking to amuse my grandmother, and Shuyao was afraid that she would sweep her's sweeper, so she waited."

Seeing that the old lady and Mu Yuqing were both looking at this, she respectfully saluted the old lady: "Shuyao has seen grandma!"

The old lady glanced at Mu Shuyao, and after just one glance, her brows frowned: "Why are you dressed like this?"

Is this despised?Mu Shuyao looked at Mu Yuqing's pale face meaningfully and said, "Grandmother thinks Shuyao's clothes are not good? But these are the best clothes Shuyao has worn in these years."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and tugged at the somewhat short sleeves, and continued: "If the fifth sister hadn't brought these clothes to Shuyao in the afternoon, Shuyao would have to wear cotton clothes to see her grandmother at this time!"

And Mu Jiaqing and Mu Wanting looked at each other, they both saw the slightly curved corner of the other's mouth, lowered their heads lower, but their small ears stood up, waiting to see the good show.

"Hehe, Madam is in charge of everything in the house by herself, I'm afraid I forgot in a hurry, Shuyao, you can't be angry with your mother." A charming voice sounded outside the door, everyone knew that it was Fifth Aunt.

Fifth Yiniang was the last to enter the mansion, but she gave birth in the same year as Fourth Yiniang, the Jin family, with a difference of only two or three months.

The fifth aunt, Qiu Shi, was originally a young lady in the brothel. By chance, Mu Yong, who was still the minister of the official department at the time, took a fancy to her. Regardless of the objections of the old lady and Wang Shi, she insisted on bringing her in through the back door. I also gave my aunt's place.

In these years, Qiu's favor has never been broken, and Mu Yongnian has never accepted a concubine after her.

There was just one thing that caused Qiu Shi to have a knot in her heart. She could have had another son, but although this son was born, he died before the full moon.

She never believed that it was a coincidence, she used many means to investigate secretly, and finally she found something, so all the doubts point to Wang's Lily Courtyard, although there is no direct evidence, but she wholeheartedly believes that Wang's harm her son.

Therefore, although she does not fight for anything on the surface, and even often says a few good things about Mrs. Wang in Mu Yongnian's ear, she will still trip Mrs. Wang secretly, but because she does not do it obviously However, Mrs. Wang didn't have much hostility towards her.

It's just that she is not allowed to attend some banquets among noble ladies, and the identity of the brothel makes Wang's family unable to lose that person in front of all the noble ladies.

The fourth aunt, Mrs. Jin, who followed Mrs. Qiu, was originally Mrs. Mu's personal servant girl. Because she could read a few words, the old lady asked her son to take her into the room, so she could serve in the study.

Although the Jin family is a maidservant, she has a very high spirit, especially in the few years when Mu Yongnian just took over the house, she was quite favored.

But later, her favor was snatched away by a young man, so she naturally disliked Mrs. Qiu, but Mrs. Qiu fell into Mrs. Wang's eyes for some reason.

Whenever she had conflicts with Qiu Shi, the mistress Wang always stood by Qiu Shi's side, saying: Qiu Shi was born as a young lady, if you are serious with her, you will lose your airs!

In fact, she was using the Qiu family to suppress her. In fact, she had already guessed the reason for this, because she also gave birth to a son for the master. She was just afraid that her son would share the family property with his son.

But she is not easy to provoke. Back then, she was an old person beside the old lady, and she couldn't keep her son Zijie at all.

Therefore, no matter the time, as long as there is a chance to ridicule Wang, she will join in.

Just like what is going on now, Qiu's words have already helped Wang's siege, but she added a sentence: "No matter how busy you are, madam should not forget this matter, otherwise If it spreads out, outsiders don't know, so they might say that our mansion treats the concubine daughter harshly, especially this time the master brought the second lady back with great fanfare. If outsiders know, she doesn't even have to wear a good dress, so maybe how to arrange the master .”

At this time, the Qiu family had already stepped aside, giving way to the main battlefield.

After so many years, she has already been familiar with Jin's temperament. As long as she starts some things, Jin will automatically come up and become a gun in her hand.

"Okay, give me a break." The old lady in the main seat finally spoke, her cane banging on the ground, "Isn't it just a few clothes? It's worth fighting for so much blushing and thick neck. "

After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Mu Shuyao, only to see that she also had a frightened look on her face.

At this time, the audience finally stopped talking, and then fell to their knees in the middle of the room with a plop, and said in a crying voice: "Grandmother calm down, mother calm down, it's all Shuyao's fault, Shuyao shouldn't talk too much, and shouldn't be greedy for these good clothes , please old lady, mother punishes."

"Oh, what does this have to do with the second lady!" Qiu stepped forward to help Mu Shuyao and said, "Madam is in charge of the entire Mu residence, and sometimes things are unavoidably neglected, or Madam has already asked someone to do it. It’s just that there are some servants who are lazy, don’t they, ma’am?”

"Yes, I've already let Nanny Zhang handle this matter in person, that old bastard must be hiding somewhere again, after a while, my mother will definitely punish her, and Shuyao won't be sad anymore."

Mu Shuyao showed a face from Qiu Shi's arms, and smiled, "Mother, don't blame yourself, Shuyao's life now is as if it is in the sky, how dare you be sad, and don't hesitate to be blessed."

"Good boy, it's good to know how to cherish blessings. Your parents will definitely not treat you badly." The old lady gave Mu Shuyao an approving look. There is no rustic spirit, but she is more sensible than some concubine girls who are not on the stage.

Thinking of this, she glanced at Mu Yuqing out of the corner of her eye, unlike this concubine girl who was raised in the mansion, she didn't learn anything else, she learned a little bit of pettiness, but she was born as a child, her roots are there.

"Xiulan, it will take a few days to make clothes now. First, let someone go to the tailor shop to buy a few pieces for Shuyao, and then wear them." The old lady said again: "Another day, let people go to the mansion to give Shuyao another dress." Do something wholeheartedly."

Seeing that the old lady handed him the ladder, Mrs. Wang naturally used the ladder to get down.

Just at this time, the little maid came in and said that the master had business and would not go back to the house for dinner, so the old lady led a group of people to the dining room.

Along the way, everyone introduced Mu Shuyao, and Mu Shuyao met them one by one.

"You have already met the sisters." The old lady seemed to be in good spirits, "You also have an elder brother, Zixuan, who is currently studying abroad, and a younger disciple, Jie, who went to his uncle's house to play today. I'm afraid I won't come back until dark, I'll have time to see him in the future."

Mu Shuyao responded one by one.
