Revenge of Rebirth: Intrigue

Chapter 19 The Lady's Residence
Mu Huaxian watched the second wife act coldly, and followed her will and asked, "The south courtyard is haunted?"

The second lady made a face of embarrassment, her eyes flicked left and right, and finally she pursed her lips, as if she had made a decision, she held Mu Huaxian's hand tightly with both hands: "I shouldn't have let you know about this, Now that you have heard it, I can't hide it even if I want to."

"Second Madam, please tell me, I will definitely not tell others." Mu Huaxian tilted her head, showing an innocent and sincere smile.

There was a gleam of joy in the eyes of the second lady, and she said softly: "Originally, the haunting is just the ignorant nonsense of people in the house, but...it's not good to be haunted, why must it be the idle courtyard in the south courtyard?"

"Xianting? What's that place?" Mu Huaxian asked suspiciously.

She had never heard of this place.She became vigilant in her heart - it must not be that simple to live in a place that she has never heard of in two lifetimes.

"You... you don't even know about it?" The second lady looked at Mu Huaxian in surprise, "This, this is your mother's former residence!"

"Shouldn't my mother live in Fuyunju with my father?" Mu Huaxian was shocked. She knew that the second wife would not lie to herself about this matter. Yes know.

However, in the previous life, it seemed that everyone had forgotten about the eldest lady of the Mu family. No one had ever mentioned her mother in front of her. She had asked Mu Ying before, but all she got was cold eyes and scolding.

The second lady's eyes were full of frost, but her face was very kind: "Your mother likes to be quiet, and the layout of the courtyard is also her favorite. She has lived there since she entered the mansion. Even your name is not your mother's name." Is it derived from adding Xianting's Xianzi to Xianting's surname?"

It turned out to be like this... Mu Huaxian didn't know why her name was so different from other sisters until now.

"Since you..." The second lady paused, sighed, and said, "The eldest lady died in childbirth, and after that, the master kept secrets about Xian Ting. If anyone mentioned a word, he would feel uncomfortable for a long time. Therefore, Xian Ting gradually The land has been laid waste until this day."

Mu Huaxian felt strange, even if Xianting is her mother's residence, it has been abandoned for many years now, what's the use of the second wife telling her this?
"A few nights ago, the servant girl said that she heard the voice of a woman singing when she was passing by. I didn't pay attention to it, but I didn't want to. The servant girl went crazy after returning to the room!"

"It's not just like that," Qingmei looked around in fear, before she said, "Yuqiu, a sister from the same village as the slave girl, said that the night before yesterday, she went to the laundry room in the south courtyard to get clothes. But I saw a black shadow suddenly flashing outside the courtyard!"

Although what they said seemed to be true, Mu Huaxian absolutely did not believe in ghosts and gods.What she cares about is why all the servants have kept their mouths shut all these years and never mentioned anything about Xianting.

She has never even heard of her, the eldest lady's own daughter.

Seeing Mu Huaxian's contemplative face, the second lady had a strange smile on her face, and then she suddenly woke up, and said to Mu Huaxian, "Second Miss, I'm the one who is talking too much today, so just pretend you didn't listen to me. Come on. It's getting late, you should go back."

"Then don't bother the second lady."

Mu Huaxian has an innocent smile on his face, but his heart is as bright as a mirror—now he is playing hard to get with himself.
