A certain proportion of glue must be added to good ink to ensure the stability of the ink and prevent it from fading easily.
However, due to poor craftsmanship, the ink produced is often not good enough.
The founding queen specially made a kind of ink and added her own special glue to the ink. It has been passed down for hundreds of years and has not deteriorated. It is insect-proof, wrinkle-proof and waterproof. It is called pine gum ink.
Later, for some unknown reason, after the death of the Queen, this ink recipe was lost.
The old man Huangshi said: "This ink is hard to find in the world, and one ingot is worth thousands of gold. When the Queen passed away, there were only three pieces of pine gum ink left, which were hidden in the Treasure Pavilion in the palace. They were destroyed by fire a hundred and fifty years ago. From then on,
It can no longer be made.”
At first glance, the handwriting of the Mu Family Instructions brought by Mu Yunhan was difficult to tell whether it was genuine or not.
The whole thing is indeed old, but if the paper is wrong and the ink is wrong, then it is fake.
Mu Yunhan believed in the two elders' appraisal, but found it difficult to accept it.
If this family motto is fake, then where did it really go?
Who was it, confusing the real thing with the fake, and putting this thing in Muhou's house?
What is the purpose?
Just to let the descendants of the Muhou Mansion surrender when encountering difficulties? Accept their fate and wait for death?
Mu Yunhan hurried back to Muhou Mansion, and the first thing he did was to look for Mr. Mu.
Mr. Mu Er was also shocked: "Fake? How is it possible? I have watched it being enshrined in the ancestral hall since I was a child. From your father to your Jin brother, no one has memorized it from beginning to end."
"Is it necessary to fake this? No matter how you look at it, it's useless."
Mu Yunhan saw that he didn't seem to be telling lies, so he had to leave and go to find the third grandma.
The Third Grandma has been a clan elder for generations and helps manage precious items such as family trees.
Hearing Mu Yunhan say this, Mu Zizhang shook his head repeatedly: "This thing has been kept in the ancestral hall. I have seen it since I was a child, and it looks like this."
The third grandma also said: "I was curious when I was young, and as soon as I got married, I encouraged your grandpa to show it to me quietly. It is indeed like this."
If you want to ask why everyone remembers it so clearly, it is because the sentence "Perhaps one day, the Mu family will have no descendants and disappear from this world, so there is no need to force it." It is really memorable.
Mu Yunhan was helpless.
Come to think of it, even if it is fraud and subversion, it should have happened in previous generations, and future generations will not know about it.
Perhaps, the truth will never be found out.
Murong's matter was quickly settled. Mr. Mu Er and his son ran out of the city for a day, buried the person properly, and never mentioned it again.
On the third day after Murong was laid to rest, someone came to Guhou Mansion.
Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Gu's third wife's sisters-in-law came here to discuss matters related to the marriage of Gu Fenglin and Mu Yunhan.
Mrs. Mu Er sent someone to invite the third grandma over.
With the third wife taking action, Mu Yunhan didn't have to worry about anything and went to the restaurant.
The Huanhua Building auction is just around the corner, and the restaurant is about to reopen. There are really many things to worry about.
She was busy until dark before going back. Mrs. Mu Er couldn't help but said angrily: "At this time, you are still busy doing business, and you asked me to do it alone."
Mu Yunhan smiled and saluted her: "Auntie, thank you for worrying."
Mrs. Mu Er said helplessly: "Everything is settled, your future mother-in-law said she wanted to come over to see you, but when she asked, she found out that you were not at home at all."
Mrs. Gu's face at that time was really wonderful. She was very unhappy, but she still tried her best to endure it.
