Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 198 Chapter 198
This corner of the banquet is going to be a little deserted. Although the people here are also dressed in rich and noble clothes, they are obviously not as good. They are not as friendly as those before, and they are more restrained overall.

"The people here are all well-known wealthy businessmen in Southern Qi. It's easy to make friends after meeting first."

Mu Yu found Yuan Dang's figure in the crowd, and nodded slightly at him, Yuan Dang smiled back.

She went on to look, and the woman sitting next to Yuan Dang should be his regular wife. The woman who almost made her a mistress was just as she had imagined, a typical example of the type of woman who had an unsatisfactory life.

Sui looked at her with a knife in her eyes, she didn't seem to care about anything with a woman whose life was not going well at this moment, so she turned her eyes to look at the other members of the Yuan family.

Yuan Rong was also there, and most of them were elders. She only glanced briefly to know who was who. If the face and name matched, she stopped looking and followed Zheng Cheng to say hello and exchange pleasantries.

Maybe Yuandang told them something before, or maybe they knew that she was doing business with Yuandang, and Yuan's family was very friendly and warm to her, and even invited her to Yuan's house as a guest.

Then I greeted a few merchant families. Although most of them looked very enthusiastic, their smiles always made people feel fake.

Sensing her emotional change, Zheng Cheng said softly, "That's it. In business, profit comes first, and sincerity is rare. At least they are willing to act on you. This at least shows that you are still valuable."

Mu Yu knew this, she just didn't want to look at those hypocritical and crappy faces anymore, she was tired of looking at them.

"How many more people do you want to see?"

"Tired? There is one more table, those people in the outermost lobby, you just need to show your face."

Mu Yu nodded, hoping that this process would be completed soon, with a smile on her face all the way, her face was almost frozen with laughter, and she really couldn't smile when facing those hypocritical people.

Zheng Cheng chuckled, secretly thinking that Mu Yu was too naive, although there was only one table left to introduce, but this last table might be more difficult to deal with than all the previous ones.

Because the people at this table belong to the Mu family in Weizhou.

When Mu Yu heard that the family's surname was Mu, he felt something was wrong, but he still felt a little lucky. There are so many people with the surname Mu in this world, so it's impossible to meet the Mu family of the original owner's parents by such a coincidence, right?
Furthermore, the original owner's parents were small landlords in a village near Huangsha City, so how could they have anything to do with the Mu family in Weizhou thousands of miles away?
The Mu family in Weizhou is not a small family. Those who can sit here are all big families that can be counted in Nanqi.

When the Patriarch and his wife of the Mu family talked to her, she didn't like the way they looked at her, and when she saw the timid couple behind the crowd, her heart sank completely.

"This is a distant relative of my family, and my hometown is also near Huangsha City. Miss Hemu, you are a fellow villager, so I want to let you meet, maybe you still know each other before?
Mu Qing, Mrs. Li, come quickly and let Miss Mu meet. "

Now that she has been here for about two years, the memories of the original owner have been almost forgotten. I can't remember whether Mu Qing is the name of the original owner's father, but the original owner's mother's surname is indeed Li.

The next moment, she saw the couple, who looked wretched and not on stage even though they were dressed in gold and silver.

Although the two of them were paler and fatter than the vague image in her memory, there was no doubt that they were the original owner Mu Ayu's parents.

Mu Yu felt helpless in her heart, but her face was still calm and peaceful, but someone didn't want her to be calm.

"Mu Qing, Mrs. Li, have you seen Miss Mu? Didn't you say that she is very similar to your daughter?"

The wife of the head of the Mu family was talking with a smile, but she was winking at Mu Qing and Li Shi. Mu Qing and Li Shi looked at her hesitantly, but they didn't dare to go forward.

Mu Yu knew that their hesitation was not because they were afraid of hurting their daughter, but because she was so different from the original owner two years ago, there was almost no resemblance at all.

At that time, because of the birthmark on the original owner's face, no one was willing to pay attention to her appearance, even her parents and relatives.

Now she has had her birthmark removed, her facial features have grown, her temperament is completely different from before, and her status is also the same. No one will associate her with the poor little girl before.

Oh, except for the Mu family in front of me.

Want to bind her with vain affection?That also requires family affection.

Where is the relationship between the original owner and the two people in front of him?If there is family affection, will you leave your daughter behind and let her beg for food to fend for herself?

Mu Yu said bluntly, "After both of my parents died, I was adopted by a family in the mountain village. I have been growing up in the mountain village since then. I have never met these two. Mrs. Mu thinks too much."

Seeing Mu Yu express his attitude, Mrs. Mu was also very embarrassed, especially the two people she found were not good enough, "Haha, that's it, I just thought that you are fellow villagers..."

Zheng Cheng, who had been watching the play for a long time, finally came out to smooth things over, so that Mrs. Mu would not be too embarrassed, and took Mu Yu to leave.

After this experience, Mu Yu was even more tired, so he hastily went to the lobby to show his face and left.

But without her as the core figure, the banquet was still running normally, and it was very lively, and it ended after a long time.

……

After the banquet was over, on the way back, Mrs. Mu called Mu Qing's wife Li Shi into the carriage.

"What's going on? Didn't you say that Mu Yubacheng is your daughter? Why didn't you speak just now?"

Mrs. Li felt aggrieved but did not dare to express her grievance when she was questioned so harshly. It was not she who said this, but her husband Mu Qing.

Although the wooden girl in the rumors does have some similarities with her daughter, she never thought that this might be her daughter, which is simply impossible.

Including her husband Mu Qing also thought so. They fled famine and went to Mu's family, but the treatment they received was not good. They had to work in the farm to get a living. The reason why they said this was just to brag.

Who would have thought that such words would be passed on to the head of the Mu family and his wife, and they would be taken as true.

In fact, it may not be true. Compared with the Mu family a hundred years ago, the Mu family is more than 01:30. They used to be the ones who hosted such a large-scale banquet, but now they can barely get a place in the second-class seats. , How did they accept it?

So they have to seize any possible opportunity, even if this opportunity sounds ridiculous.

Mrs. Mu didn't expect that this was really their child, she just hoped that these two people would be smarter, that they would be more or less like a fellow countryman, and that they would be able to do things well in the future. The chain, not to mention the lack of friendship, and the embarrassment of being smeared, of course she couldn't swallow it.

"This wooden girl, my daughter is too different, it should be..."

"Nonsense, do you think I'm blind? Of course I can see that you are not a mother and daughter. Wouldn't it be nice to say a few words to please others? Trash!

You and your family go to work on the farm, don't let me see you again, you guys who have done more than failed! "

"Madam, you promised to let my son study in the ethnology..."

"Fuck off! Let the Mu family lose face in front of so many nobles, and still want your son to study, go ahead and dream!"
