Chapter 5

Mu Yunsheng took the burden to go back with old lady mu. She was still ill. Apart from the pain of her throat tearing, her foot plate was unstable and swayed when she walked. Even if she padded with straw to stabilize the pan full of oil, she still swayed a lot because of the instability. There was residual heat oil on Mu Yunsheng's leg, and the heat wave suddenly hurt.

Old lady Mu slapped her with her hand as if she were killing her father's enemies: "cheap skin, you're playing tricks again. If you spill the oil again, I want you to look good."

Mu Yunsheng stares at her fiercely in the night, hoping to drag her to death, but in the end, she walks back one by one.

It's not that she didn't want to kill the old couple these days, but when she lit a fire to burn the Mu family, Lin was crying: "sheng'er, don't do stupid things, sheng'er, you're happy to burn them, but you have to pay for their lives. Sheng'er, what should I do if you don't have them..."

Mu Yunsheng looks at Lin, and Muna stares at him for a while, but he doesn't burn.

Yes, how can she pay for such a thing? She wants to live and strive to live.

Live

Mu Yunsheng looks at the night darkly. Now she sees old lady Mu fawning on Miss Zhao and finally realizes that she has gone the wrong way. She just wanted to get rid of them before thinking about wealth. Now she understands.

She wants to be rich, to stand in the position they can't look up to, can really get rid of them.

When she returned to the village, old lady Mu separated from her. Mu Yunsheng looked at the direction she was going. She was the only butcher in the village. She only took a look and went back.

On the way, I met several village women. They looked at Mu Yunsheng and talked together in a low voice. They could hear a few words intermittently, as if they were "pitiful" and "beaten again" And so on.

Then, with a few regrets, Mu Yunsheng was used to it and had no mood to tell.

Let go of the burden, and Muna went to the lobby. Master Mu was not here today, and the atmosphere was cheerful. Uncle and aunt at the table didn't know what to say. With a deep smile, Mu Yunsheng couldn't speak now, so he didn't have to say hello to them. He sat down at the table and watched the dishes on the table all put hot pepper, which was very dazzling.

Zhou, the cook, said to Mu Yunsheng with concern: "my niece can't eat a few mouthfuls these days. My aunt has been told that it's a spicy appetizer, so she gives you these things. I love you, but I need to eat more."

Mu Yunsheng tried to smile, then he took the dish and a bowl of water back to his room. Behind his back, Zhou Shifu and sun Shifu spit at her, but sometimes Mu Yunsheng is also curious about how she and Zhou Shifu hate each other so much that he has to look at her.

Forget it, this family is like this. It's fun to bite each other.

Mu Yunsheng went back to his room and washed the dishes with cold water several times before he dared to enter.

Now the blisters in her throat have not gone away, and her swallowing is like a needle pricking pain. Lin starts to cry again, but she has no strength to comfort her.

Hard to swallow two leaves, a little girl came into the door.

Smaller and skinny than Mu Yunsheng is mu Ruolan, the daughter of her third aunt.

She looked at Mu Yunsheng and put a bowl of green dregs on the side: "you can eat this. I just cut it into pieces and boiled it in water. I didn't put anything."

Mu Yunsheng wanted to thank her, but he didn't even utter a hoarse voice.

She looked at it, also in tears, and then left.

After a while, Zhou's scolding voice rang out: "cheap hoof, you will be filial to her, and I don't see that she has money to buy something for you secretly. It's really cheap."

Murolan cried dully, section by section, circling in the lonely night.

She is not the only one who has a hard time in the Mu family. Her sister and brother rank first, and mu Ruolan ranks second. Maybe she is kind-hearted, maybe she sympathizes with each other. In a word, this cousin is the little warmth she feels in the Mu family.

Even for the sake of these warmth, she has to work hard to live, and then get rid of the rotten and smelly elders.

Mu Yunsheng hung his head and drank the potherb soup Mu Ruolan prepared for her. As she said, it was boiled in white water. It had no flavor, but it was better than others. It was more comfortable to swallow and throat.

In the evening, there is a smell of broth in the yard. When Mu Yunsheng goes out to pour water, he sees that old lady Mu and master Mu are eating wine in the lobby. No one but an old couple, son, daughter-in-law and grandson, shouts to serve. Every time they are rich, Mu Yunsheng is not surprised.

Next to the porch, the third aunt Zhou is swallowing her saliva with a twinkling expression. When you think about the usual way that Zhou often scolds mu Ruolan as soon as she gets angry, it's not hard to imagine that she will be old mu in the future.

"Miss, what's the matter with you."

Listening to the servant girl's question, Miss Zhao looked back. She looked at her servant girl and asked hesitantly, "do you think Miss Mu is very wrong today?"

"Didn't her grandmother say she was sick? Maybe I can't hear her. Isn't the young lady used to it? "

"No way." Miss Zhao shook her head and thought, "even if I get along with her very short, I can see that she has such a temperament. Even if she is dumb, those who should laugh at me still have to laugh at me, just like those who can't control her What's more, it used to be a person who picked up the burden to sell, but now he's with a grandmother. ""I don't see that old woman as her grandmother." A maid in green tilted her lips: "I'm standing a little far away from Miss Li today. I can see the woman clearly. I always stare at Miss Mu fiercely, as if I want to eat people."

"You see it really?"

"That's natural. She later said that she was Miss Mu's relative. I was stunned for a long time. How could miss Mu have such a fierce looking relative."

Miss Zhao meditated. The maid who always manages money for her was silent for a moment. She said slowly, "don't you think what Miss Mu is doing today is not as good as before?"

"I feel the same way. It seems that it's not sweet enough. It seems that what others sell is no different. If it's not for the smell of flowers, it's Miss Mu who comes. I'll change it."

Several people each sentence, Miss Zhao more suspicious, even back to the Zhao house, she did not return to God.

Miss Zhao has a brother named Zhao Jin. He is three years older than Miss Zhao. Now he is 17 years old. He grew up with his younger sister and studied together for several years. Later, when he was older, he divided the front yard and the back yard, but he was not unfamiliar with his younger sister.

When he saw Miss Zhao coming back, he was distracted all the time. He took a fan and knocked on her hand: "what does my little sister think, so absorbed?"

Miss Zhao looked back at her brother and said, "I'm not talking to you. Did I get to know a girl who sells sugar cakes? I like her refreshing personality, but I don't know why..."

Miss Zhao said what she saw today, and then said something about the servant girl.

"It's not worth thinking about these little things. Just ask someone to go to the village with her and inquire about them."

"What my brother said is that I have to ask my brother to lend me two errands."

Zhao Jin of course promised, the next day sent his two most trusted Xiao Si to inquire about the Mu girl.
