Farmhouse pretty cook

Chapter 637 Family scandal (2)
Now, by sending Mu Yuelan into the palace, he can draw Empress Dou's sight away, even if he wants to find a scapegoat, he won't look for Mu Fengting.He was showing his favor to Empress Dou, and also in order to continue to cooperate with him.

From Mu Kun's point of view, Tang Hao has a good skin but no great wisdom at all. He has already quietly adopted a foster daughter. As long as Tang Hao ascends the throne, this foster daughter will be of great use.

At the same time, in another wooden house, the atmosphere was equally dull and frozen.

Hongye bid farewell to Muxiang, seeing that it was getting late and the business in the store was being looked after by servants, she wanted to go home and see her two daughters.

As soon as she stepped into the gate, her dowry girl greeted her with red eyes, "Xiaohui, what's the matter, you're fine, why are you crying?"

Xiaohui wiped her tears and stopped her, not wanting her to go in, "Miss, you should go back to the store, there are unclean people in the house, don't stain your eyes!"

These words reminded Hongye of the actor she met in the street earlier, could it be that Mu Jinghua brought him back?
Hongye is also a proud and arrogant person. She has been doing business outside for several years, and she is no longer a cowardly woman who can only swallow her anger.

Immediately, she pushed Xiaohui away and strode in.

This old house was bought by Mu Jinghua's father when he was still alive. There are three large courtyards with three entrances and three exits. The servants live at the end, the courtyard in the middle is the residence of the master, and the main hall is at the front. up.

Hongye quickly crossed the front yard, before entering the door, she heard her mother-in-law, Mu Cao's laughter.

This is strange, she always said before that an actor is not worthy of entering their house, but now what happened, she was talking and laughing with that actor.

Xiaohui followed her closely all the time, afraid that she would be overly sad, unable to bear it, and would turn around and faint again.

In the main hall, Mrs. Mu Cao was sitting at the top of the table. The actor was dressed in light plain clothes and stood beside her obediently. He was holding a brocade box in his hand and was talking to Mrs. Mu Cao.

Mu Jinghua sat beside him with a happy face, watching the two of them talking and laughing, the expression on their faces was simply the satisfaction of intoxication and no return.

The sudden appearance of red leaves disturbed the harmonious atmosphere.

Mu Cao gave her a reproachful look, as if dissatisfied with her sudden appearance.

As for the actor, his expression was terrified, but deep in his eyes, there was a provocative look.

Mu Jinghua looked deeply at Hongye, then lowered his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.

Mrs. Mu Cao glanced at Hongye's clothes, envious and jealous, and even spoke in a strange voice, "Oh, you really spent a lot of money to attend the queen's palace banquet. This outfit is so expensive. Less money, now that your business is bigger and you earn more money, you haven't treated yourself badly!"

The actor Xiaoqing, with a pure and innocent smile on his face, bowed to Hongye, "I have seen my sister, I must have worked hard for my sister, my family just made a pot of white fungus and lotus seed soup, my sister came back It’s just right, it’s ready to eat, Xiaohui, why don’t you go to the kitchen and bring the soup!”

Hongye watched her every move and smiled.This little opera singer who was born in an opera has only come here for a while, seeing her domineering appearance, it seems that she is the hostess.

Xiaohui didn't move, but shrank behind Hongye.

She is the young lady's dowry girl, an actor, why should she order her, and how can she order her.

Seeing Xiaohui's disobedience, Xiaoqing's eyes flickered with joy, the singers, for the face-changing, didn't they just say it, there was still a triumphant smile in their eyes, and the expression on their face changed, and they were about to cry.

She wrung her handkerchief and said to Mu Cao with an aggrieved face: "My sister seems to have misunderstood me. I just saw that she just came back, and it is very cold outside today. I am afraid that she will catch a cold. That's why I asked Xiaohui to serve her a bowl of porridge, there is really no other meaning, my sister must have misunderstood something."

Before Mu Cao made a statement, Mu Jinghua couldn't sit still, and stared at Hongye with displeasure, "She is also kind, if you don't like it, just refuse, although Xiaohui is your dowry girl, but If you marry into our Mu family, she is the maidservant of the Mu family, dare she refuse to do what the master orders?"

"You can't even teach a servant well. How can you sit securely as a young lady!" Mrs. Mu Cao was not far behind. He acted arrogantly, and put all the money in her own account. If Hongye handed over all the money he earned to her, maybe Mu Cao would not hate her so much.

Hongye walked over slowly and sat opposite Mu Jinghua, "Xiaohui, go and pour me a cup of tea, I want to settle a settlement with my mother-in-law and my husband today!"

"Yes, I'll go now, slave girl," Xiaohui became obedient now, and obediently went to pour hot tea for her, not too far away. Earlier, Xiaoqing took a thermos to make tea in order to please Mrs. Mucao. It is perfect for making tea.

As soon as Mu Cao heard that she was going to settle accounts, her mind was buzzing, "What account do you want to settle? What account do I have with you? Hongye, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense. You married into our wooden house. Over the years, I have never treated you badly. Look at what you eat, wear, and use. None of them belong to our Mu family. This marriage was made in front of our lord, so it's not certain whether it will come true or not!"

Xiaohui sent the tea to Hongye, holding the hot tea, Muxiang felt that her body was not so cold.

She smiled coldly, "Really? Mother-in-law, you remember it very clearly. It's only a dozen acres of Susukida? Why didn't you say that when I married, your family was poor, and only this house was left, and a man who only accompanied me and didn't earn money?" The rice shop, not only has no money, but also owed a huge debt at the beginning. Whoever opened the tailor shop, relied on hard work, and made clothes day and night, paid off those debts for you. The days have passed, and you just want to cross the river and demolish the bridge, don't you?"

Xiaohui stood aside and secretly wiped away her tears. She saw all the hardships that the young lady suffered when she got married, and she felt the pain in her heart.

Where was Mu Jinghua when the lady was still doing embroidery late at night?He was drinking with his so-called friends, reciting poems.

What was Mu Jinghua doing when the young lady was pregnant in October and was still busy with business in the store?Playing with writing and ink, thinking of himself as a literati and poet, thinking of being romantic and suave.
