After leaving the chopsticks in the front hall, all the food on the table was a mess. Mu Lingxue always had a good appetite, so she didn't think anything of it, but after Murong just took a look, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.
In the past, he and his wife couldn't even take a few bites of the four dishes. Today, the three of them had almost eaten all the dishes on the table. How could he not be surprised, but his mood was strangely better. How much could his sister eat?
As much as you can afford.
Song Cailian's face was slightly red. She actually ate a lot of meat today. In the past, she had one bowl of rice, but today she actually ate two bowls. Fortunately, her husband and sister-in-law ate more than she did at the dinner table, otherwise she would really feel
I can't hold my head up anymore. When I was learning the rules, I heard my grandma say that you have to eat until you're full, and even if the food on the table is delicious, you can't keep your chopsticks off. I don't want to forget about the rules today.
Mu Lingxue touched her swollen belly and burped contentedly. Qiangwei and Shuizhu behind her twitched their mouths, wondering if the master could do anything more rude.
Although I have been divorced, I still have to maintain my image well. I have such an image on my first day back home. I really don’t know what the servants in the mansion will think of me in the future.
"You guys go back to the backyard first, I still have things to deal with." Murong Gang patted his sister on the head and said to his wife.
Song Cailian nodded, and the two of them watched the person go away, then walked to the backyard with their arms crossed. Before they even entered, they could hear the noise inside. Mu Lingxue smiled and pulled Song Cailian beside her.
"Sister-in-law, are you going to see Dad and Mrs. Zhang? I'll go with you. After eating so much, it's time to eat. Besides, as a daughter, I have to pay my respects to my father, right?"
Looking at the sly little sister-in-law, Song Cailian pursed her lips and smiled, "I'm relieved to let you go, but I'm afraid your brother won't be reassured. You have to promise me that you'll stay away if something happens for a while, so as not to hurt yourself."
Mu Lingxue smiled even more happily. She didn't expect that her sister-in-law would also expect that the scene would be spectacular. When it came to taking action, she couldn't miss it, so she nodded vigorously.
"Master, this is Aunt Lu,,,, Lu," Qiangwei was about to call Lu'er.
However, she also vaguely heard that Lu'er had become the master's concubine, so she felt a little awkward about addressing her just now.
Several people looked up and saw Lu'er wearing a big red robe walking past. Upon closer inspection, her robe was exactly the same as what Mu Lingxue was wearing. When they got closer, they looked at the patterns printed on the fabric.
all the same.
Qiangwei and Shuizhu's faces were a little ugly, but they also knew not to say anything to their master. Especially when they saw the clothes on Lu'er, they felt extremely dazzling. An aunt was wearing bright red clothes. How could this red be a servant's?
Can I wear it?
Mu Lingxue was also dumbfounded. She naturally knew in her heart how valuable the clothes her eldest brother bought for her were, yet Lu'er could actually afford them. With the money she gave them, she was afraid that even this outfit wouldn't be enough, so where did they come from?
money?
It is impossible for the eldest brother to give them any money. Mu Lingyun just married into Prince Rui's house and it is impossible for him to have much money in his hands, so there is only one possibility.
She shuddered, wouldn't that cheap dad really be so bold and blatantly collect so many things? If the news came to the ears of the emperor, wouldn't it mean that he would be blamed on his eldest brother?
Now she finally understood why her eldest brother said it would be more worry-free to bring people to the house. It turned out to be the case.
But no matter what, this father was also a general. Don’t you understand this? Or is he really afraid of poverty and wantonly hoarding money? It’s too much.
Song Cailian felt the hand on her arm tighten and patted her hand comfortingly, "Since the emperor has appointed your eldest brother as a general, he must know the situation at home. The emperor will not be surprised if my father-in-law does this. Besides, your eldest brother also wants to
If you find a way to stop it, the emperor won't say anything. My father-in-law is an old man and your eldest brother is a son. If you don't manage it well, the emperor won't say anything. Don't worry."
Song Cailian's voice was very low, so even Lu'er, who was five steps away, didn't hear what she was saying. From the moment she entered the house, she had been waiting for this opportunity to meet.
After Mu Lingxue returned home from a break, Lu'er's heart was so excited that she almost wanted to jump out of her chest.
"The eldest girl is back. I heard about the emperor's imperial edict in the morning. On the way back, I thought that I would definitely see the eldest girl in the palace. Unexpectedly, I actually saw her right away. There is no need for the eldest girl to be sad. Now the eldest daughter is
The young master has become a general, and the eldest daughter will still have a place to live even if she is divorced. Our Mu family has become more prosperous now, and we still don’t care about the bad reputation." He was accusing Mu Feixue of losing his job.
Mu Fu's face.
Mu Lingxue frowned when she heard her speaking in the tone of an elder. After hearing her finish speaking with a proud look on her face, she answered, "A sparrow is a sparrow. If it puts on the clothes of a phoenix and flies up a branch, then
I can't see the appearance of Phoenix. Thank you Aunt Green for your concern. Although the concubine is a servant, Aunt Green can care about the affairs of Mu Mansion. It can be seen that the servants of Mu Mansion are also loyal. I should be happy for my eldest brother.
Yes, with such loyal servants, my bad reputation really won’t have any impact on Mu Mansion.”
Qiangwei, who was standing aside, lowered her head and forced herself to laugh. Although there was no change on Shuizhu's face, the corners of her lips were slightly raised. She relied on her master's shameless skills to compete with her lips.
Others really can't compare.
Seeing that she was being scolded as a servant, Lu'er's face turned green and red. Ever since she became the master's concubine, she had always been aloof. No one dared to offend her. No one knew that the master was doting on her.
But now that he is living a good life, it is because the man he loves has become a general. If he could be with the young master back then, wouldn't his status be even higher than it is now?
Thinking of this, how could she not feel hatred in her heart? Now she was the concubine of the old man, and the man she loved became the old man. Such a gap almost drove her crazy. All of this was because of this Mu Lingxue in front of her.
The gift, now he used these words to taunt her, it was like a knife stabbing her chest hard, making her breathless in pain.
"That's exactly what the eldest lady said. I only care about the shogunate, and the old man also sees it. Last night he even talked about using me to fill a house. From now on, the eldest lady may have to call me mother.
"In order to take revenge on Mu Lingxue, she tried every means.
The most direct thing is to suppress Mu Lingxue as a mother, and then slowly torture her. For a woman who has been abandoned by the emperor, relying on this alone, he can slowly let her survive.
You can't ask for death.
Qiangwei and Shuizhu who were present couldn't help being shocked when they heard this. Even Song Cailian couldn't help but raise her head and look over. After all, she was the daughter-in-law and had no business in the father-in-law's house.
Mu Lingxue sneered, "Mother? You're just a cheap concubine, but you dare to call me mother as a true master. Can you bear the responsibility? Believe it or not, I'm going to take half of your life right now and make you lie down for the rest of your life."
Can’t get up from bed?”
Lu'er looked at her without fear, "Big girl, I am also your elder. If a junior talks to an elder like this, it seems that the big girl needs to learn the rules."
"Rules? A concubine dressed in red is walking around the general's mansion. You dare to talk to me about the rules. What are the rules in your eyes? Don't think that because your father pampers you, you can be lawless. You are just a
Concubine, as a daughter, I can give my father one concubine, or two, three or four, do you think my father will be happy?"
Lu'er's face changed and she said with a smile, "Then I'll be here to thank the eldest lady on behalf of the master."
Mu Lingxue avoided her blessing, "I don't deserve your thanks. Remember to call yourself a concubine. As a concubine, you should keep your own rules in mind. As for me to choose some people to take care of my father, then
This is what children should do, and there is no need for a father to thank his daughter."
A few sharp words silenced the scene. Song Cailian didn't interrupt, and then she took over, "My sister got up early in the morning, let's go back and take a rest first."
Mu Lingxue gave Lu'er a warning and was in a good mood. She looked away from Lu'er and said with a smile, "It all depends on sister-in-law."
The aunt and sister-in-law left with their servants, completely ignoring Lu'er who was standing there. Lu'er stomped her feet in hatred. Fortunately, there were no other servants present, otherwise it would be embarrassing and embarrassing today.
Lu'er returned to the main courtyard with hatred, and saw Ms. Zhang looking around the house with the girl beside her. She looked over sarcastically. She really has never seen the world, what's so good about this woman.
"Hey, why is sister coming out?" Lu'er greeted her with a smile.
Mrs. Zhang's face darkened when she saw her, "You can come out and I can't?"
Ever since this little goblin came to the master, the master has never entered her room. Seeing the master pampering her so much, how could Ms. Zhang not feel resentful in her heart.
If it weren't for the fact that I have a daughter and have been with the master for so many years, I would have been left out in the cold. Take today's visit to the mansion as an example. Originally, the servants were going to take them to the side courtyard. This green
The son was favored by the master, and the master kept her here, but he had to feel aggrieved for a long time before the master was willing to let her live in the main courtyard.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhang's heart became more and more angry, and her eyes when looking at Lu'er were as sharp as knives.
Lu'er pretended not to notice at all, and stepped forward and touched her arm affectionately, "I just met the eldest lady and the eldest girl at the door. I heard that the eldest girl said that she was looking for some people to take care of the master. My sister said, isn't this right?
Good thing? I even thanked the older girl."
Of course she knew that the only way to avoid suspicion was by saying this to Madam Zhang. Otherwise, with the way she was the only one favoring her now, Madam Zhang would definitely be willing to share the favor with her when a few people came in. In this case, she had to remind Madam Zhang at this time, please
She doesn't care whether the god is willing or not, but if a person comes in, she will have no chance to get close to the master.
[The cold is very serious, with runny nose and tears]
