More than a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Mrs. Mutai is also used to living in a big house in this city.

Early in the morning, I went to pick wild vegetables with the neighbor's woman, and now I am drying them on the bamboo mat.

"Xiaohe, help me!"

"Hey."

Ruan He, who had her hair tied into a woman's bun, stood up, her face glowing pink, like a nourished and gorgeous flower.

At this time, Aunt Zong snatched the job away before she could take action. She looked at Ruan He with a loving look on her face. She originally thought that the miserable life of exile came to an abrupt end, all because of Ruan He.

She is polite.

"Have a rest, have a rest, I'll come." After Aunt Zong finished helping Mrs. Mutai, she said, "Young mistress, why don't you go to the shop? I'm here to do the work at home."

"Uncle San is in charge very well. It doesn't matter if I go later." Ruan He said.

On weekdays, Ruan He and Mu Zhengyuan take turns taking care of the shop, and the business of the shop is becoming smoother and more stable day by day.

The two brothers Mu Yunxiao worked as errands in the city lord's mansion. Because the two brothers were diligent and serious in their work, they performed their duties very well. As a result, they were promoted by the city lord and their salary was increased. After one month, they were also promoted. There are three more days of rest than before.

The most leisurely person in the family is Ruan He.

She felt like she had nothing to do other than moving the fruit out of the space.

Comfortable!

……

the other side.

Mu Zhengbai was finally released after serving his sentence.

He came out of the cell dirty, and at first glance he looked like a beggar from outside the city.

After spending two full months in a dark prison, he ate prison food, slept on dirty hay, and ate hard woks. His life was simply unbearable.

"I finally left this hellish place. I'm not allowed to eat meat or drink too much." Mu Zhengbai straightened his back and thought with satisfaction. He even touched his fingers and felt empty before he remembered his jade. The wrench was lost during the house search.

He walked home dejectedly.

"Mom." Mu Zhengbai was not satisfied when he saw Mrs. Mutai drying wild vegetables. "I'm back."

"Oh." Mrs. Mutai paused while drying wild vegetables.

She doesn't know when Mu Zhengbai seemed to be less important in her heart.

Her two well-behaved grandsons, as well as her grandson-in-law, who knows both coldness and hotness, are Aunt Zong and Mu Yuanyuan. They are all well-behaved and obedient. His son, whom he has raised for decades, still annoys him so much.

Mu Zhengbai frowned dissatisfied with Mrs. Mutai's reaction.

He had finally endured a hard life, and no one at home welcomed him back. He did not dare to get angry at Mrs. Mutai, so he cursed at Aunt Zong beside him:
  "You're dead, why don't you give me some good wine and food?"

Aunt Zong shrank her neck and hesitated.

Ruan He earned everything in the house. Although Mu Zhengbai was the nominal head of the family, he still had to ask Ruan He.

Ruan He frowned without saying a word.

Mrs. Mu Tai, who was the only one here who could suppress Mu Zhengbai, immediately glared at her and cursed in a loud voice that she had learned from the women in the village: "When you come back, you will be safe for me. If you cause trouble again, that's the end of it." Your own troubles have nothing to do with our family, and then you will be locked in that cell." Mu Zhengbai shivered in fear when he mentioned the cell.

He never wanted to live such a hard life again.

Then Aunt Zong took him to live in an empty woodshed, and he didn't dare to mess with anything anymore. Now Aunt Zong was on the same side as them and didn't treat him as a family member.

When Aunt Zong left, he felt so indignant that he kicked the door of the room in anger.

"Damn it, I've lost power, everyone has climbed on top of me. And that little whore, showing off her condescension to others."

It was Ruan He who was scolded.

He could only gnash his teeth and curse a few words, but he did not dare to go to Mrs. Mutai and the others to settle accounts.

But last time he was arrested by the Yamen people for no reason, and was directly accused by the little thief. Mu Zhengbai didn't even have to think about it, and he knew that the little thief must have been caught by Mu Yunxiao and Ruan He. He confessed himself on the spot.

Mu Zhengbai thought about spending the night with the rats in the cell. At any rate, the woodshed where he lived now was relatively clean and tidy. It was much better than the gloomy cell environment, and it was considered a comfortable life.

Mu Zhengbai ran to the well and fetched a large basin of clean water to wash up, then forcefully took away a set of Mu Yunchao's old clothes and put them on, washed them thoroughly, and then walked proudly. Walking outside slowly.

"Humph, I don't want to keep you here, I have my own place to stay!"

Compared to the remote and quiet exile village, the main urban area of ​​Yuecheng is much more lively and prosperous.

Mu Zhengbai was walking on the street, surrounded by a dazzling array of gadgets, which were not much different from when they lived in the capital before.

When he heard someone mention the word "Mujia" while passing by a teahouse, his ears perked up.

"I heard! The Mu family is from the capital, and they are relatives of the city lord... If it weren't for the old man and the city lord helping them so much, all the famous and wealthy families in Yue City would have to Give the Mu family some face."

"What's coming from the capital... At the last wedding banquet, I took a sneak peek from a distance. There was a little girl from the Mu family with a tattoo of the word "boss" on her face. According to me, this Mu family should be from exile. I don’t know why, but I relied on the Lord of the City.”

"I don't believe it. How can an exiled person be so capable and be worthy of the Lord of the City? Aren't those exiled people still staying in the exiled village?"

Mu Zhengbai looked at these common people and couldn't help but retort, "You know nothing."

"You're an exiled pariah, do you have a place to speak?"

A big man who was gossiping also saw the tattoo on Mu Zhengbai's face and shouted.

"My surname is Mu!" Mu Zhengbai said arrogantly. He only had a few copper coins left in his body. For the sake of face, he took out a few coins to buy a bowl of bitter tea and drink it.

After hearing what he said, the big man was dragged by his companions to sit down.

They stopped talking too much for fear of causing trouble.

Mu Zhengbai drank a large bowl of tea on an empty stomach and ate a few mouthfuls of rice. At this moment, hunger filled the air. He moved his hair to cover the tattoo on his forehead.

I originally wanted to find a place to eat, but when I walked to the street, I was grabbed by a brothel woman.

"Come in and sit down!"

Looking at Mu Zhengbai's decent appearance and clothes, he guessed that he must be a man with some money.

She eagerly came forward, her green sleeves fluttering, she raised her head and covered her red lips with a sweet smile, and greeted her in a familiar and familiar manner: "Master, you look so nice, do you want to come in and sit down to talk to us sisters?" What about talking?"

By some strange coincidence, Mu Zhengbai went in.

Enthusiastic girl, enthusiastic madam. (End of chapter)
