The next day, before Mu Lingxue got up from bed, she saw Shui Zhu coming in with a basin. The water was still steaming, and there was a clean handkerchief hanging on the side of the basin.
"Shui Zhu, can't I just ask you to take care of my eldest brother? You are no longer my girl." Mu Lingxue got up from the bed.
Shuizhu hung up the sand tents on both sides, "Master, I'm not used to this."
After he finished speaking, his face couldn't help but feel hot again. Besides, she was coming over in the morning. Although the uncle didn't say anything, it was obvious that he was still very happy.
"The uncle has taken people out to collect firewood a long time ago. He said it was time to celebrate the New Year and prepare for the winter." Shuizhu said and turned around to pick up the clothes placed on the corner of the bed.
Mu Lingxue quickly took the clothes in her arms and said, "I will do it by myself. If you are not used to it, don't call yourself a slave. Just call me little sister. Why are you so shy as a family? Do you not want to be my sister-in-law?"
"
After making a joke like this, Shuizhu was not as nervous as before. He moved his mouth for a long time before calling out the girl. After saying that, he blushed and ran out. Mu Lingxue laughed when she saw Shuizhu looking so shy.
It's really rare.
After Mu Lingxue washed her face, Shuizhu also came in from outside with breakfast. White porridge and a large bowl of braised pheasant meat. Looking at Mu Lingxue, his mouth watered, and he pulled Shuizhu to sit down and eat together.
Without the distinction between master and servant, Mu Lingxue felt that getting along with her was easier than before. Mu Lingxue ate most of a large bowl of chicken without feeling nauseated at all. "It seems that he also likes to eat meat."
The ‘him’ in the words refers to the child in the belly.
Shuizhu put away the dishes and chopsticks, "I'd better talk to the uncle about this when I get the chance, and let him make some preparations. When the belly gets bigger, it won't be possible anymore, and we have to prepare a midwife."
"It's okay, it's still early. I want to go to town when I give birth. The weather will be warm by then, and I always take advantage of it."
Shuizhu snatched the bowl from her hand and said, "I will do all this. Your health is important."
Mu Lingxue shrugged and sat back on the chair, "I'm fine, I'm just afraid that my eldest brother will disapprove of me giving birth to this child if he finds out."
After all, in this era, if a divorced person is pregnant, the reputation will not be good if word spreads about it, but it may be said that her private life is licentious.
Shuizhu came in from outside and wiped the table, "You still don't believe your brother? He is not that kind of person."
Mu Lingxue blinked and looked over with a smile, "My eldest brother asked you to call him uncle?"
When asked about this, Shuizhu's face turned red again, and he finally said, "The uncle asked me to call him husband."
The voice was very low. If Mu Lingxue hadn't kept her ears tightly listening, she might not have been able to hear what she said. Thinking of her elder brother's cold face, asking Shuizhu to call him husband, and being seen by others with his commanding aura.
There must be more.
Shuizhu turned around, saw Mu Lingxue's half-smiling look, and bit her lip, "Only the eldest grandma is qualified to call the uncle her husband. The uncle's kindness is enough, how can I give him troubles?"
With."
She is always so sensible, so sensible that it makes people feel bad.
Mu Lingxue took her hand and said, "Don't feel that you are sorry for anyone. My eldest brother married you as an equal wife. It is natural for you to call him husband. Now, for Song Cailian, the one in her belly is the most important. You and
Big brother is better here, but he will always make you feel a little wronged."
Whenever the matter between Shuizhu and her eldest brother was mentioned, Mu Lingxue felt very conflicted. Perhaps she had not accepted herself into this society and always felt that being a concubine was not good.
In the eyes of others, just like in Shuizhu's eyes, being a concubine does not feel wronged, as long as she is with the man she loves.
"The general took the soldiers out to chop firewood. Miss Mu is bored too?" Lu Liang walked in from outside without saying hello.
"Why don't you come to Miss Mu if you have nothing to do? I think the weather is nice, how about we go for a walk together?" Lu Liang stared at her with narrowed eyes.
"Vice General Lu, you only know that I am now called Miss Mu, but have you ever heard of my previous identity? The princess of Prince Xian's Mansion, and the princess who was divorced by the emperor's decree. My eldest brother is an important minister of the emperor. What do you think of me?
Is it possible for such a person to fall in love with a lieutenant general?" Mu Lingxue saw that Lu Liang was shameless, so she stopped showing mercy to him.
Such a person is basically shameless. What disgusted Mu Lingxue the most was his naked eyes, as if you were being stared at without any clothes on. It made you feel uncomfortable all over.
Mu Lingxue originally wanted not to break up with her, but they didn't care. She had no room for anything. She was just a little lackey of the queen family, and she dared to take advantage of herself.
"After all this talk, am I still an abandoned woman? Don't worry, as long as the beauty is there, I still don't care about those with false reputations." Lu Liang snorted coldly, and strode forward again.
Shuizhu was about to step forward, but was blocked by Mu Lingxue, who only stared at Lu Liang, "Then we'll see if Vice Admiral Lu has this ability."
"How to prove it? I will prove it to you now." Lu Liang stretched out his hand and went over to arrest the person.
Mu Lingxue dodged his hand, and she didn't know when there was a needle in her hand. She stabbed the unprepared Lu Liang's arm directly. Lu Liang frowned when she suffered pain.
"You poisoned me?" Lu Liang's face turned pale the moment he was stabbed, "What a poisonous woman, hand over the antidote immediately."
As he said that, he strode forward. Mu Lingxue waved her hands wildly, forcing Lu Liang to retreat, not daring to come forward. He squeezed the stabbed place tightly, and the knife almost shot out of his eyes.
Shuizhu had been screaming for a long time. Although Murong Gang had gone out with his people, he still had a few cronies left behind to protect Mu Lingxue and Shuizhu. When he heard Shuizhu's cry, Zhao Zisheng was the first to break in.
When he saw Lu Liang Chuochuo's intimidating formation, Zhao Zisheng was about to move forward, then stepped back and ran out. Lu Liang laughed sarcastically when he saw it, and looked at Mu Lingxue with pride.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Zisheng, who had run out, came back again, holding a wooden stick in his hand. It turned out that he had gone out to look for something. He didn't say much and went straight to drink, "I wonder what the purpose of Deputy General Lu coming to my master's room is?"
Zhao Zisheng walked into the house and stopped in the middle. Lu Liang didn't even pay attention to Mu Lingxue, let alone the servant in front of him. Thinking that he was poisoned, he vented all his anger on Zhao Zisheng.
on the body.
He raised his leg and kicked him. The kick was so hard and fierce that Zhao Zisheng didn't even have time to hide. He kicked him half a meter away. He covered his chest and struggled several times without standing up.
Mu Lingxue's eyes widened, "Lu Liang, don't bully me too much. You're just a concubine of the Lu family. A little lieutenant, he blatantly molested civilian girls and even got into fights. You think you have no family law even though you're far away from the capital."
Yet?"
"Wang Fa? Here, I am Wang Fa." Lu Liang said with a sinister expression, "If you know anything about it, hand over the antidote immediately."
Zhao Zisheng had gotten up from the ground and walked back to the middle. He was pulled aside by Mu Lingxue. Unexpectedly, Zhao Zisheng's stubborn temper rose again at this time. Mu Lingxue even winked at him and didn't look away.
Squeezed into the middle.
Lu Liang looked at it and sneered, "Want to be a hero? I'll help you."
After saying this, he raised his legs again. This time Zhao Zisheng was prepared in advance. He stepped back and snatched the stick out of his hand. The stick was so long that it hit Lu Liang from such a distance.
When had Lu Liang been so angry? He kicked him again and grabbed his fists. He was a military general and guarded the border all year round. His physical strength and movements could not be compared to Zhao Zisheng's.
Seeing that Zhao Zisheng was about to be beaten again, Mu Lingxue did not care that she was pregnant. She took out the prepared needles from her sleeves and rushed towards Lu Liang.
Lu Liang had suffered a loss before, but this time when he saw Mu Lingxue rushing towards him, he did not dare to let her get close to him, so he only dodged around while looking for an opportunity to grab Mu Lingxue's hand.
The scene became chaotic, and Shuizhu wanted to step forward. He looked up and saw the person walking in, his eyes lit up, "Uncle."
This sentence finally made several people who were arguing stop. After all, Lu Liang still had some taboos about Murong Gang, otherwise he wouldn't have come to Mu Lingxue while he was out. It's just that this time he was poisoned, and it was too much.
Come feel strong.
"Brother, I'm here just in time. Let's see how your Vice-General Lu teases women." Mu Lingxue's stomach became uncomfortable after all this tossing, and her face looked drained of color.
"You're such a bad person, you're going to file a complaint first, and then let's talk about your purpose in poisoning this deputy general. Or was it someone else's instigation?" Lu Liang's last gaze fell on Murong Gang, who was standing at the door.
The meaning of his words was very obvious, that everything was done under Murong Gang's instructions. Otherwise, Murong Gang went out with other soldiers to chop wood, and how could he suddenly come back? It was a trap set for him.
Mu Lingxue sneered, if a trap was really set, then he would have to be willing to fall into it, otherwise the trap would be useless.
"Come here, push Lu Liang down." Murong Gang ordered coldly.
Hearing the response from outside, Chen Wu rushed in with a few attendants. Without giving Lu Liang a chance to resist, he directly pushed the person to the ground and tied him up. When the person left the house, Lu Liang could still be heard scolding.
.
Shuizhu's first move was to walk over and help Mu Lingxue, "Go back to the bed and lie down."
Mu Lingxue nodded, looked up at her eldest brother who looked worried, and sighed leisurely. She also saw this today. It was her eldest brother who saw Lu Liang's thoughts, so he set up this trap. Really
Let Lu Liang get it right.
Mu Lingxue couldn't tell how she felt about being used as bait. Seeing the guilt in her elder brother's eyes, the little bit of resentment disappeared. She didn't like Lu Liang either, so it would be nice to take this opportunity to get rid of him.
"Zisheng, come here, I'll take your pulse." Sitting back on the bed, Mu Lingxue didn't even look at her brother, but called Zhao Zisheng over.
Zhao Zisheng smiled faintly, "I'm fine, it's just a few superficial injuries. It will heal in a few days. If it's okay, I'll go out first."
Shuizhu didn't even raise her head, not to mention taking a look at Murong Gang. She also saw that the uncle was using this matter to deal with Lu Liang, and she felt dissatisfied.
