Long Song Fenghua: The Demon Queen Confused the King's Heart

Chapter 362

"what do you know?"

"Young Master, he has no parents. Our ancestor picked it up from the village. He was supposed to be raised under the name of the master, but the ancestor must have been reluctant to part with it, so he stayed with him." Yuzhi said.

It turned out that he was brought up by Mrs. Liu alone. Mu Changge was thoughtful, but... If this is the case, shouldn't the relationship between Liu Yu'an and Mrs. Liu be deeper than others? Why did she But I feel that the love between the grandparents and grandchildren seems to be nothing more than that.

"Miss, is there anywhere else to go?"

"It's nothing, let's go back and rest first." Mu Changge said, "I'll see Second Brother and the others later."

"Yes, ma'am."

Yuzhi obediently followed behind Mu Changge, and when their master and servant took a few steps, Suyu's eyebrows froze very subtly, and was about to turn sideways, but Mu Changge calmly grabbed her cuff .

Suyu was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood, pretending to stop to straighten her belt, she followed again.

Just after they walked a certain distance, a figure sneaked out of sight from the dark place, looked at the direction they left, and after confirming that they would not come back, carefully dodged out from the dark place. This person was not someone else, It was Mrs. Liu whom Mu Changge visited just now.

After straightening her clothes, Mrs. Liu acted as if nothing had happened, and walked in unhurriedly.

Before approaching the door, Mrs. Liu heard a crisp sound, which rang out together with someone's sobbing.

Liu Wanru's icy voice came from the crack of the door, "I haven't said anything yet, you're wronged first."

"Ma'am... I don't have any servants. I am just afraid that my wife will offend my ancestors by doing this. This servant is for my wife!"

"Afraid of offending the ancestors, do I have to let everyone hold it? Heh, is it for me, or my temple is too small to accommodate a big Bodhisattva like you, and I am in a hurry to go to other places to get some good incense."

Liu Wanru's voice has always been neither high nor low, but these cold words are more piercing than the beating and scolding. After listening to the servant girl, she just kept sobbing with grievances, repeatedly saying "I have no servants" and so on, sobbing uncontrollably.

Mrs. Liu, who was standing outside the door, listened to all this carefully, with a bit of contempt and sneer in her eyes. Liu Wanru's temperament was really not what she expected.

Pretending to have just arrived, Mrs. Liu patted the door, and the maid's crying stopped immediately, and after that, there was no other sound in the room.

Not surprised by this, Mrs. Liu raised her voice, "Wanru, it's me, I'll bring you something."

After a while, I heard a lifeless sentence from inside, "It's my sister-in-law."

After Liu Wanru's words fell to the ground, the little maid opened the door from the inside. In the room, Liu Wanru was still lying lazily, a cup of tea was broken on the ground, and a maid with swollen eyes from crying was kneeling beside her, trying her best to Hold back the sobs.

"But I broke a cup and cried like this. Those who don't know think how harsh I am to the two of them on weekdays." Liu Wanru's expression was not at all turbulent, and she wrote lightly, "Go and clean it soon."

As if she had been pardoned, the maid hurriedly stood up and swept away the broken porcelain pieces.

"My place is deserted, and mynahs don't even bother to fly one here, so my sister-in-law has to be free."

"I heard that our family's wandering lady is coming back. I prepared some supplements for her earlier. But she can't use that much by herself. Thinking of your weak body, I left some for you."

Liu Wanru raised her brows and sneered, "Even you have to curry favor with her? The blood of the Liu family is just different."

Now if you still pretend nothing happened, it would be a bit too stupid to pretend to be in a daze. Madam Liu pursed her lips lightly, "Why do I listen, this sourness seems to be coming towards me? Thanks to me, I am still thinking about it." Looking at you, I came to you because I thought you were my own, knowing that you were unhappy, and wanted to talk to you a few words, but you are better off, just chase me away."

Picking up the new tea served by the maid at the side, Mrs. Liu took a sip, and signaled the maid who was waiting on the side to step back first, then gave Liu Wanru a sideways glance, and said in a low voice, "Besides, what can I do to curry favor with her?" , I don’t know if the yellow-haired girl I found from somewhere is really the Liu family, but it’s not certain.”

Liu Wanru fiddled with the censer's hand, a glimmer of light appeared in her previously chaotic eyes, "What do you mean by that?"

"Do you really not understand, or are you just pretending to be confused?" Mrs. Liu sneered, and leaned closer to Liu Wanru, "The old ancestor said she is, so is she really? Don't forget, from the beginning, it was just The ancestors are saying that she is, but what about the evidence? Has the evidence ever been shown?"

Mrs. Liu's voice became weaker and weaker, and even Liu Wanru, who was about to touch her lips, had to listen carefully to hear what she said, "Why did the old ancestor want to hide the truth and find someone for the first time? There is no need for anyone to pretend not to know, everyone knows it well. The ancestor needs such a person, who knows if the one who came back now is real, or was it arranged by the ancestor?"

Liu Wanru was fascinated by what she heard, and without paying attention, she stuck her fingertips to the hot spot of the incense burner, which made her shudder, "Impossible, how could mother lie about such an important matter!"

"The more important it is, the more likely it is to be fake. If you can't find the real thing, don't you have to get a fake one? Otherwise, why didn't she prove it to us?"

Madam Liu moved her body back again, "Although it's not up to me to speculate on whether the person the ancestor found is true or not, but I still feel a little bit on your behalf."

"What does this have to do with me?" Liu Wanru still had that cold tone, but it was extremely rare that she didn't issue an order to evict the guest.

Mrs. Liu smiled, "Although in the past, when we were in the mansion, we had a peaceful relationship at most, but you are still closer than that person who I don't know where to find. Since the ancestor wanted to find such a person , looking for others, it is better to find you. You who are the most filial to the old lady are not necessarily inferior to an outsider, right?"

Liu Wanru vaguely realized something, and her face, which had no warmth at all, sank again, "Sister-in-law can distinguish between what to say and what not to say."

"What should I say, what should I not say?" Mrs. Liu snorted coldly, "If she stands firm, what will happen to the rest of us, don't say you don't know! At this point, I still Is there anything to say or not to say!?"

"What the hell is sister-in-law trying to say today!?"

Mrs. Liu's eyes were fixed, she grabbed Liu Wanru, and said ruthlessly: "You are living and dying, do you want us to die together, or do you choose to let others die?"

Liu Wanru gasped, her cold and clear eyes had never been so vivid before, but after an instant, her face was shrouded in fear again, her deep voice with a slight tremor squeezed out from the bottom of her throat, " But what if she is real?"

Mrs. Liu squeezed her hand harder, her eyes were a little more stern than before, "So what if it's true, people are already dead, how can the old ancestor still have the ability to bring the dead back to life!? It will be done by then It's a foregone conclusion, it may not be true that in the heart of the ancestor, treating her daughter with all his heart and soul since she was a child will not be as good as the life of an outsider!"

Cold sweat oozed from Liu Wanru's palm in an instant, Madam Liu stared at her, "We are all in the same boat, so you can do what you want."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Liu returned to her former dignity, got up gracefully, and left without saying a word.

Liu Wanru was still in a daze, looking down at the hand that Mrs. Liu had squeezed so hard, fear and hesitation began to alternate in her eyes...

After a stick of incense time, Mu Changge's room.

The door of the room opened a crack silently, and Suyu sneaked in, fearing to startle Mu Changge who was sleeping with her eyes closed, she called softly: "Miss, the servant is back."

Eyelashes trembled, Mu Changge opened his eyes, "But what did you hear?"

"Yes, Madam Ru told Madam Ru a lot." Suyu said in a deep voice, standing beside Mu Changge, and told in detail what she had heard, "Madam Ru is unguarded, slaves Just hiding under the window, never missed a word."

His eyes darkened, and Mu Changge played with the teacup in his hand, with a thoughtful expression on his face.

Suyu said again: "Although Madam Ru is hesitant, it's still not safe for Miss to be here. Should I go back and keep an eye on Madam Ru?"

"No, there is no need to go to Mrs. Ru's place anymore." Mu Changge said decisively after rubbing his fingertips on the rim of the cup, "If you want to inquire about something, you should go to Mrs. Liu's place."

Suyu responded, and immediately disappeared outside the door.

Not long after Suyu left, Yuzhi came in with a stack of snacks, and said with a smile, "I don't know if Miss has tasted Cangde's snacks, so the servant started to make some. Hey, where is sister Suyu?"

"I have some things I need, so I sent her to the street to buy them." Mu Changge replied very naturally.

Yuzhi did not doubt that he was there, and sighed: "We are the only two serving ladies, and I feel a little wronged. The ancestors also said that it is better to call more servants for the lady. Why doesn't the lady not want it?"

"When I was in Bai'an's house, I was used to the quietness, so many people made me noisy and irritable." Mu Changge smiled, and motioned Yuzhi to come closer, "Come on, I'm new here, and I still don't understand the rules here. And ask you first, so as not to make any mistakes in the future."

Yu Zhi nodded honestly, "Miss wants to know something, but if the slaves know it, they must tell the miss in detail."

"It's not an important thing to say." Mu Changge looked at her and said with a smile, "I also occasionally heard a few people passing by the gate muttering that there seems to be some tension between Madam and Madam Ru in our house. For the holidays?"
