Chapter 34
These words sounded like compliments on the surface, but in fact, the deep meaning in the words could be clearly heard by several people present.

Mu Yanran smiled lightly and said nothing, while Mu Wanting and others showed sympathy, only Mu Yuqing snorted softly.

Mu Shuyao didn't care about everyone's expressions, she was ready to leave after choosing someone.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wang said again: "Shuyao, you are also my daughter. From now on, don't call yourself your name in front of me, just be like your big sister." Yuqing, she has already called herself a daughter regardless of etiquette.

"Mother, this..." Mu Shuyao wanted to evade, thinking: I am not familiar with you, and you may not be pleasing to my eyes, you pretend that you are not working hard, but I still think it is hard work!
However, Mrs. Wang didn't give her a chance to object, and she hammered the final word: "That's it, I also found you a female gentleman who can read and write, and is proficient in knitting. I used to be a teacher in Hanfeng Academy, from tomorrow onwards, you can start studying with her!"

"Mother is talking about Mrs. Gu?" Mu Yanran asked curiously, but she glanced at Mu Yuqing's direction from the corner of her eyes, and said to Mu Shuyao, "Second sister, hurry up and thank mother, this Mrs. Gu used to be a famous student in Hanfeng Academy. Even if she left the academy, many high-ranking officials wanted to invite her back to be a female teacher, but she was invited by her mother to teach her second younger sister." The last few words were particularly emphatic.

Naturally, her expression did not escape Mu Shuyao's eyes, and she sneered in her heart, this is not asking for a husband for herself, she is clearly adding hatred to herself, look at Mu Yujing's small eyes over there, as if she wants to swallow herself alive same.

Mu Shuyao glanced at Mu Yuqing before standing up to thank Wang.

It's just that before she could speak, Mu Yuqing ran up to Mrs. Wang and said coquettishly, "Mother is so partial, and she hired a husband for second sister alone. Isn't there a female husband in our house?"

"You girl!" Mrs. Wang scolded lightly: "It wasn't you who said last time, your second sister hasn't been enlightened yet, I'm afraid she can't keep up with your study progress, I discussed it with the old lady, and I think you are right It's not unreasonable, you can't ask other wives just because your second sister is affecting you, but it happens that Mrs. Gu is also there, so Mrs. Wang introduced her to you."

"Yes, but the second sister doesn't need such a good husband." Mu Yuqing blurted out, but was pulled away by Mu Yanran who was next to her, and hurriedly changed her words: "Daughter means, we sisters can read and write together. They also have a companion, if the second sister studies alone, she will be too lonely."

"Mother, my daughter also thinks that if the second sister is alone, she must be very lonely, second sister, do you think so?" Mu Yanran turned her head to ask for Mu Shuyao's opinion.

Mu Shuyao sneered in her heart, but it didn't show at all on her face: "It's fine for the mother and elder sister to make the decision. Shuyao has no objection."

"Then I'd like to ask Mrs. Gu to enlighten you first, and we'll talk about it later. If you can keep up with the progress of the younger sisters, when will you learn together." Wang didn't leave any room for change.

It was Mu Yanran who spoke again: "Mother, our daughter learns to read at home, and she doesn't have to take exams like her elder brother. There is no need to be so serious. The second sister is so smart, so why can't she keep up? Otherwise, let's ask Gu The lady will enlighten my younger sister for a month, and then let a few younger sisters learn together?"

Mrs. Wang thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, let's do it this way, Shuyao, you are late to enlightenment, and mother doesn't ask you anything, as long as you can read, write, and go out without losing the face of our Shangshufu. "

Mu Shuyao nodded in agreement, but she could feel the resentful gaze from Mu Yujing. She never understood where she offended this little girl, and why she didn't look good on herself since she entered the mansion.

But since she couldn't figure it out, she didn't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, she is a no-brainer. If she can't even beat her, then she can really go back to the furnace and rebuild.

After finishing what should be said, what should be picked has also been picked, Wang waved everyone to retreat.

Along the way, Mu Shuyao looked at Huarui who was hesitant to speak with a funny face, and said with a low smile: "If you have something to say, just say it, don't be stuffy in your stomach and suffocate yourself."

Huarui looked hesitantly at the little girl who was following behind, and whispered in Mu Shuyao's ear, "How can Miss want the maid given by Madam, isn't she afraid of being a nail?"

"She has repeatedly asked to prepare for me, if I insist on not agreeing, I will disobey her kindness." Mu Shuyao said with a cold face: "Besides, it is uncertain who this girl will be in the end! "

"No matter who it is, but her contract of prostitution is in Madam's hands, even if this person wants to help us, he can't disobey Madam's order." Hua Rui explained the mystery.

These days, she is not staying in Mu's house for nothing. Although everyone is wary of her, she relaxes a lot towards Xiaofang. The affairs of the government, these are what she told herself when she came back.

Mu Shuyao didn't particularly care, since this girl indicated that she should choose her, then she should have had her own way of dealing with this problem.

Huarui and Xiaofang's deed of prostitution was given to her by the old lady at the time, saying that these two people were brought here from the countryside by herself, and they were not regarded as slaves of the Mu family, but as helpers hired by the Mu family.

Seeing that Huarui was still worried, Mu Shuyao turned her head to look at the little girl behind her, and patted Huarui's hand comfortingly: "It's okay, we'll ask her when we get back, if there's anything wrong, we'll How about 'entertaining' her well and making sure she doesn't say a word she shouldn't say outside?"

Huarui knew Mu Shuyao's methods, so she nodded naturally when she heard her say that.

The two talked while walking, Mu Shuyao raised her head unexpectedly, and saw two men sitting in the pavilion beside the Jiuqu long bridge opposite, one of them was the owner of the mansion, Mu Yongnian, and the other was a young man. Young Master in Jinyi.

That young master didn't know which family it belonged to. Mu Yongnian treated him very respectfully, but that young master didn't show arrogance because of this. Instead, he naturally showed a gentle and refined demeanor in his gestures, which made people unconscious want to be close.

"Ah, that young master is so handsome!" Huarui also saw the brocade-clothed young man, and couldn't help exhaling softly, "The capital is indeed a place where handsome men and beautiful women are born. The young men I have seen in the past few days are more handsome than the other. I don't know. Which young master is this?"

"Xiao Nizi is so excited!" Mu Shuyao couldn't help joking, "Why don't you ask someone?"
