Mu Rousang was wearing a peony coloured plate of gold chrysanthemum rat skin cloak, holding onto an oil painting umbrella while walking slowly with wooden clogs on top of it. The snow was pressing on the dried branches, Dewar Shrek was covered with fluttering snow, and the wind was wrapped around her, forming a snow picture of a servant girl admiring the snow.
When they arrived at the Ink Fragrance Temple, Xi Yan and An Ran were waiting outside the door of the study. From afar, they heard the sound of someone stepping on the snow, and looked over to tear open his mouth and laugh: "Aunt is here, Aunt is here!"
The door to the study room opened, and Yan Mo came out to welcome him. He quickly invited a few people in, and then ordered someone to heat up a pot of boiling water to come over.
After entering the room and seeing Mu Jinzhi sitting down, Yan Mo came over and reported: "Young Master knows that Aunt likes to drink flower tea the most, so he had already sent people to sweep away the snow on the plum blossom before sending servants to the branches to pick the latest plum blossoms. Aunt, please wait for a moment, after the plum blossom snow has been boiled, I will make Aunt some Snow Plum tea."
Mu Rousang laughed: "It's still better to live at home. Bro, I feel like moving back."
Mu Jinzhi shook his head and said helplessly: "I mean, once you marry Zi Xuan, you must be a good daughter-in-law. I know that you should do this, when I have free time, I will ask your sister-in-law to send a note to invite you over to play. If you don't have free time, I will ask someone to sweep away the snow on Mei Li's heart and then pluck the most tender flower stamens to send to you."
After the two of them chatted for awhile, Mu Rousang asked again, "Brother, you said that you have something to discuss with me, what exactly is it?"
"En, yang-ge has sent a letter, take a look first." Mu Jinzhi picked up a letter from the desk and passed it to her.
Seeing his serious expression, Mu Rousang hastily took the letter and read through it. She furiously slapped her hands on the tea table and bellowed: What nonsense is this, I really do not wish to acknowledge him as an elder.
Mu Jinzhi shook his head and said: "Don't be angry, our lives are extremely good now. No matter how much trouble he makes, it will only be in the tent, even if he wanted to abandon Eldest Aunt, I am afraid yang-ge would not allow it."
Mu Rousang said: "Hmph, back then when we were at the small mountain village, he was full of bad intentions, and now that we are together with that chrysanthemum, he is even more so. I do not agree to divorce the Eldest Aunt, as this is a good path to ruin the relationship between yang-ge and Feng Chai, let's kiss each other once, who would be willing to say such a family."
"yang-ge and Feng Chao had some free money, so they rented a rice shop in Shu City, and transferred all the rice that they owned into the shop. They would earn more every year, and from the looks of it, the chrysanthemum family must have a bad idea, not to mention Little Rock was born to her, I'm afraid that she might want to steal the siblings' property."
Mu Jinzhi was extremely worried, Mu Yun was truly a detestable person, his entire family thought that he had died outside, and never asked, who would have thought that once he grew old, his son and daughter would immediately propose marriage, and he would come again.
Mu Rousang suddenly thought of something, and felt that something was amiss, and asked: "Brother, I see that this chrysanthemum flower is really a disaster, but I think I have to think of a way to cure her. Oh right, from what Feng Chai said, was it Mu Yiyang who took in two more concubines for Eldest Uncle?"
Mu Jinzhi's face was as cold as water, he said: "The two people in front and one behind have typhoid fever, I heard that a baby is about to hit the ground."
"What?" Mu Rousang was shocked, and immediately asked: "How did the officials end the case?"
Mu Jinzhi laughed coldly and said: "How can we resolve this case? Those two are bought girls and have no family to rely on. They just prepared a typhoid record and then were sent off with two scrolls. Oh, uncle is sad for once, but somehow, it has to be the Eldest Aunt's fault. "
Mu Rousang said: "When I was young, I still hated the Eldest Aunt, and when I was older, I started to look away. It was all because of poor people, and Uncle's heart was too vicious, leaving that chrysanthemum behind was a disaster, why didn't Eldest Aunt sell that person?"
Mu Jinzhi said: "Little sister is confused, that's Little Rock's mother, could it be that even he was strangled to death?"
"Ai, what should we do?" Mu Rousang was a little worried about Mu Fengchai.
Also, you have to find a upbringing aunt for that Ju Hua and properly teach her the rules of etiquette. She is just a concubine that cannot be shown in public, and is relying on the love of her husband to destroy her wife. " Mu Jinzhi was disgusted with Mu Yun and Ju Hua.
Mu Rousang was enlightened for a moment as she smiled: "Brother, you can relax. I'll go find sister-in-law to ask for a palace maid, then send someone to give it to yang-ge, then borrow his hand to send it to Big Uncle.
After Mu Jinzhi heard it, he said: "I will ask her for it, so that he won't be angry at you. Besides, we can choose from the palace and settle the matter about the chrysanthemums later, if she wants to stay, she will be the one to make the decision, if he does, he will be the concubine to Big Uncle. If he has children, let us juniors use some silver from the palace to buy some land for the two younger sisters, I think that he will live a long life."
He had a headache coming on because of taking Mu Yun. This junior did not care about the seniors, and what Mu Yun did wrong, this junior did not know of his wrongs.
Mu Rousang said: "Big brother, picking a palace maid who's at the age where she's supposed to release the palace isn't good, it's not good for her to be too young."
Mu Jinzhi nodded his head and said: "I know. Left and right Eldest Aunt followed yang-ge and hid his personal property well. Other than you, I don't even know who the other people are in Eldest Aunt."
Mu Rousang sighed and looked out the window to look at the snow falling from the window, then said: "I don't know if the people from the small mountain village are doing well, it's just in the blink of an eye, we left the small mountain village for a year, big brother will return to the small mountain village in the spring of next year, remember to help me bring back some small gifts, I don't know what those little sisters from back then will do."
I remember, the last time you got married, Zhu Fugui said that Little Mountain Village was very powerful right now, and every day, when Village Head Grandpa saw those naughty kids, he would not study, and he would chase after them with a stick of smoke. All of them rushed to the school to listen to teacher. Mu Jinzhi shook his head and laughed.
Mu Rousang laughed: "They are good, we are good, there are Village Head Grandpa watching from the left and right of us in the small mountain village."
After saying that, Mu Jinzhi laughed, "Hmm, those shops have already been completed, and many people have moved into the new yards on the other side of the river. Many of them are merchants, and once the village has shops, they will have businesses to work, so they will no longer have to work hard everyday, and with more and more Elementary Scholars in the village, the county will no longer dare to force their way through labor, it will be much easier than in the past years."
"Young master, grandaunt, the Snow Plum Tea is ready." Yan Mo and Shi Shu came in with cups of tea and hot water.
Mu Rousang laughed: "Quickly eat a cup of warm up my body."
The two siblings drank two cups of hot tea, then chatted about normal family matters for a while. Mu Jinzhi asked: "Is that mother of yours treating you well?
When Mu Rousang heard that, she laughed: "It's not only your mother, even your eldest sister-in-law is not an easy person to deal with. She has her own little plans and plans for the future."
Mu Jinzhi frowned: "But I am not happy, the last time I saw your big wedding's courtyard, I was already extremely dissatisfied, if not for you stopping me, your sister would definitely have gone to my house to argue."
She narrowed her eyes and took a sip of the scented tea before saying: "Don't worry, brother, it's just a resting place, it can't be considered my home, so it can be considered a guest. Since they don't like me, I would rather stay under their eyelids all day, but brother doesn't know, when those two look at my dowry, tsk tsk, that stream is more than the water of the Xiangyang River!"
When Mu Rousang thought about the envious eyes of the Madam Hou and Su Waner, she was extremely happy.
Mu Jinzhi sighed: "According to my meaning, you should reveal these things. Your brother hasn't entered the imperial court yet, even if someone were to investigate, he would still be very innocent, and not afraid of anyone biting his tongue."
"Mm, I'm not scared at all. If they want my dowry, I'll have to find an opportunity to take care of them both. I'll make it so that they won't be able to turn their backs for the rest of their lives."
On the other hand, Mu Jinzhi scoffed at the Marquis of Loyalty people, and said: "If brother Yang was not so reliable, I would not have betrothed you to him. Just based on the bad things that happened in his house, I would feel annoyed if I did not have the chance to see it.
Mu Rousang was willing to tell Mu Jinzhi anything, and said: "Anyway, it's just a matter of words, and will not lose a single piece of meat. If I'm angry, that would be difficult for me to do, and I won't be angry at all.
Seeing her say that, Mu Jinzhi became relieved, and said: "If you need anything, or her, just send someone back to send a letter, and brother will definitely not ignore you."
The two of them then chatted for awhile, when they heard Xi Yan's voice from outside, only then did they know that Yang Zixuan and Wei Anping had come.
Mu Rousang put down the teacup in her hand and said: "I believe that the two of you are here to look for big brother. After seeing them, I will go back to the courtyard to clean up.
She had just finished speaking when Yang Zixuan and Wei Anping walked in. Mu Rousang returned to her courtyard after seeing Wei Anping, the brother-in-law.
Not long after, Princess Jing'an sent someone to invite her over, she said that the carriage was already prepared, and that Old Madam Zuo, Left Lady and Big Cousin would need to send someone to invite her over.
"Spring Dye, did you bring the warm cap for my grandmother?" This was what Mu Rousang did for the two old men last time. A black skinned warm cap each.
Chun Ran came out, holding the red box and said, "Young Mistress, it's ready. I'm sure the old mistress will be very happy to see it."
Mu Rousang opened the box and took a look, then carefully examined it again. After confirming that there were no problems, she closed the box and brought her maidservants to the front.
When she arrived, Princess Jing'an and Liu Guizhi were talking there, and upon seeing her come over, he immediately waved and said: "Is it warm? Do you want me to prepare a stove for you? "
