Chapter 35

"I heard that you got a new soft cigarette?" Mrs. Hou asked the question in her mind as if she was gossiping.

Wen Jiuxiao paused as he lowered his head to drink tea, then said, "Who did you listen to, mother?"

Even his mother heard about it, so no wonder his second sister-in-law came to him to dress up with him.

Mrs. Hou sighed, "It's also my fault that mother was not strict with her subordinates. The servants there were talking privately, saying that you had made a piece of soft tobacco. It was spread as if it was true, and I gave her a good beating. Mother wanted to talk to you.

Say."

Meeting her mother's probing gaze, Wen Jiuxiao lowered her eyes and said, "Oh, there is such a thing. But it has already been given away. The second sister-in-law asked her son for it. It's not that the son didn't give it, it's that he really didn't have it. The second sister-in-law asked for it.

Maybe he is unhappy, and he has to ask his mother to help his son explain to his second sister-in-law."

Wen Jiuxiao is a vengeful person. As long as you offend him, he doesn't care whether you are a boy or a girl.

As a gift? Mrs. Hou was surprised at first, and then suddenly realized. No wonder her son didn't tell her, it turned out to be a gift.

As for whom to send, Mrs. Hou didn't ask in detail. As a woman, she didn't know anything about her son's officialdom, so why did she ask so many questions? There were a lot of people waiting in this room.

What should I do if my son's errand is ruined by a few words?

As soon as Wen Jiuxiao left, Mrs. Hou drank tea slowly and elegantly ordered, "My heart feels a little stuffy. I'm sick. Let the second daughter-in-law come and take care of me."

With her hand stretched out so long, it's almost certain that the news was deliberately released by her, this family troublemaker.

Then he added, "Let Aunt Ding and the other aunts come over too."

The mistress is sick, how can the aunts not come to take care of her? I haven't beaten them in some days, and all of them have become arrogant.

"Yes, I'll go right away." Xianglan responded, hesitated for a moment, "Where is the Crown Prince's wife ------"

She is also the daughter-in-law, and the second young lady is here. Wouldn’t it be wrong if the prince’s wife didn’t come?

"There is no need for her to come. The prince is not in good health. She can just take good care of him." Thinking of her little thoughts, Mrs. Hou was a little unhappy. "Let her copy a few volumes of Buddhist scriptures, which can be regarded as fulfilling her filial piety for me."

After getting married for so many years and having nothing to do, and having so many little thoughts, the prince indulged her too much, and as a mother-in-law, she had to give her a beating.

Wen Jiuxiao returned to the yard, turned to Qingfeng and said, "Go and receive the punishment yourself."

Qingfeng blamed herself very much, "Yes!" It was because he acted carelessly and almost brought trouble to the third master.

Not to mention how angry and aggrieved the Su family was, Qin Yushuang, the crown prince's wife, looked respectful on the face, but secretly her fingernails were almost torn through her palms.

As soon as the person who came to deliver the message left, she fell down on her seat with an embarrassed look on her face, "Copying Buddhist scriptures? She is trying to beat me up. She blames me for not giving birth to a son and a half daughters for the prince, she---

---"

Mrs. Hou didn't save any face for her, how cruel!

Qin Yushuang's hand was holding the handkerchief, trembling slightly.

Mi Shu felt distressed and held his master's hand, "Don't think too much about it, my slave. I will copy it for you."

Mi Shu swallowed even more. She has seen the hardships faced by the Crown Prince's wife in the past few years. She is worried about the Crown Prince's health and has to worry about the Qin family. How difficult it is for the master!

It was obviously the Second Young Madam who caused trouble and Madam Hou punished her, so why did she bring the Crown Prince's Madam with her?

Qin Yushuang stopped talking, and with Mi Shu's service, she washed her face and put on makeup again. She lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then she ordered: "Let people keep their eyes on that side."

That naturally refers to the second bedroom.

Coming out of the peach blossoms, Mu Mu tightly hugged the tattered clothes in his arms. Monkey and the others also stared at them eagerly. It was not that the clothes had any magic, but that the tattered clothes contained the money they earned from fishing for shrimps.

Money, a full fifty cents!

They had never seen so many copper plates. They were so heavy and the sound was so nice.

"Brother Mumu, now that we have money, let's buy meat buns to eat."

"No, let's buy a piece of cloth. Hua'er's clothes are too rotten to wear."

Hua'er is the youngest sister among them and the only girl. The elders all love her very much.

But Hua'er waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, buy it for Brother Mu. Hua'er can wear Brother Mu's clothes."

Hua'er's sensibleness made Mu Mu very sad. He touched her sparse hair and thought of Sister Yingying next to Miss Yu. He said firmly: "Don't buy it, don't buy anything. Save these coins."

Seeing his companions' confusion, he explained, "We have to save money to rent a house in the winter so that we don't have to worry about freezing to death."

"Will anyone rent it to us?"

"Yes!" Mu Mu said firmly. In fact, he didn't know if anyone would be willing to rent to them. "So while it's not cold now, we have to catch more shrimps, exchange for more copper plates, save a lot of money, and wait for the rent.

Once we have a house, we brothers and sisters will have a home. If we buy cotton-padded clothes, we can keep warm and well-fed even in winter, okay?"

"Okay!" Everyone was attracted by the prospect he described, and everyone's eyes were bright. Even the most greedy Xiao Bei didn't mention buying meat buns. This shows how tempting home is to them.

There was longing on Mu Mu's face, and he continued: "We have grown up slowly, so we can't be beggars for the rest of our lives, right? We will be hungry, cold, and beaten to death before one day. We don't even have a place to bury ourselves.

None, and ended up being eaten by wild dogs.”

Isn't the fate of all beggars like this? The beggar grandfather who first raised wood was like this.

"I don't want to be eaten by wild dogs, so we have to find ways to make money. Once we save enough money, we will not only rent a house, but also apply for household registration and live an upright life."

His eyes fell on Hua'er, "Let Hua'er wear beautiful clothes like Sister Cherry's, and wear such beautiful flowers on her head."

"Dai Hua!" Hua'er clapped her hands happily.

Others were also very excited, "What's the point of being a beggar? We all listen to Brother Mu, and we will do whatever you tell us to do, Brother Mu."

"Yes, yes, listen to Brother Mu."

At this moment, Mu Mu's mood was agitated. He couldn't express this feeling. He only felt that his heart was swelling, and he wanted to shout and vent.

After a long time, Mu Mu really became a human being. Others were amazed by his legendary experience, but he just smiled, thinking of the person he was most grateful for - Miss Yu in the Peach Blossom.

It was she who became the legendary beggar. At that time, he had a special name, Yu Mu.

Yumu, elmwood, elmwood bumps, many people say this is his self-effacement and introspection.

Actually no, he just put her last name in front of his name.

that is it.

Yu Zhi has used shrimp powder in cooking, especially when put into soup, the taste is so delicious.

Yu Zhi put down the bowl reluctantly. If her stomach couldn't hold it, she could have three more bowls.

Mother Jiang and Yingying also touched their bellies and were so satisfied that they didn't want to move.

It was so fresh. They had never tasted such fresh soup.

If such magical seasoning is added to sauce-flavored pancakes, wouldn't it be ------

The two of them were so excited that their faces lit up.
