Fortunately, Mu Yingyu is no longer the timid little girl in the past. She has grown flesh and blood and has an independent soul. She will no longer be used by the Lan family and Mu Ruge.

After Jiu Niang left, Yuzhan came and put a cloak on her. "Miss, it's almost winter and it's cold at night. Why are you sitting outside?"

Seeing that she was wearing thin clothes, Mu Qingyan asked, "Why don't you wear more clothes?"

As he spoke, he took off his cloak and was about to put it on her, "Young lady, you can't do this..."

Mu Qingyan did not stop, "I am a martial artist, I have internal energy to protect my body, I am not afraid of the cold, but you, you are just a little girl, you are weak, if you don't take good care of yourself, how can you take care of me?"

Yuzhi lowered her head, her eyes moist.

She had a miserable life, wandering around since she was young and was sold countless times.

I must have done something great in my previous life to be able to meet a good master like you in this life.

That night, the Qin Mansion was not peaceful. Three groups of assassins came one after another, but they were all dealt with by Prince Ling's men on the outskirts.

Xulin had been guarding secretly, and when Old Master Qin went to report for duty, he followed him.

Even though it is broad daylight, we cannot take it lightly.

Whenever Qin Sangbai went out, Mu Qingyan would order people to protect him closely.

The grandfather and grandson depend on each other for survival. If Qin Sangbai is lost, it will be a fatal blow to Mr. Qin.

On the way to the school, near the corner of the north city, Yuzhan inadvertently lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw a familiar figure, "Miss, that, is it Aunt Jinqiu? The back looks familiar..."

Mu Qingyan glanced at Yue Ban, and Yue Ban changed her route and followed her.

The school was as dull as ever, because the wealthy families in the entire Kyoto would not take two steps to this place.

Mu Yingyu came early in the morning because there was nothing good to stay at home. If possible, she wanted to live on her own. However, there were no female households in Da'an, and it was not safe for her, an unmarried girl, to live alone.

Mu Qingyan did not teach in the school. She was responsible for the logistics so that the children had no worries.

Of course, the children are not limited to studying, but also invited people from all walks of life to teach them how to make a living. It depends on which industry they like more. In addition to academic studies, they can take time to practice and learn.

At the beginning, there were many poor families who wanted to send their children here, but they were worried that they could not afford the tuition. After all, they had trouble even getting food, let alone buying paper and pens for their studies.

But when they heard that going to school didn't cost a penny, everyone rushed to send their children there. Even if they couldn't learn anything, they could get a meal for a day, and their children wouldn't starve to death with them.

The poor alley in the north of the city is full of old, weak, sick and disabled people who want to make a living but don’t have the energy.

When wealthy families select servants, they also want them to have straight heads and clean faces. They are afraid that buying servants like them will bring bad luck if they look sickly or even have missing limbs!

But since Miss Mu came, she not only provided them with free medical treatment, but also prescribed and boiled medicine for them.

Many people thought they could not survive the winter and were ready to die, but they were cured by a few prescriptions of medicine prepared by Miss Mu.

After everyone recovered from their illness and regained some strength, they spontaneously cleaned up the messy and narrow streets, and now the streets seem to have some life.

I heard that the eldest girl was going to open a pharmacy, so all the skilled craftsmen were picked to work there. Not only were they paid, but they were also given food!

Those who can open shops in Kyoto are all well-known families. They will not hire people with disabled hands and feet to work, so even if these people have skills, they have no place to use them. It is rare that the young girl is beautiful and kind-hearted and does not look down on them.

After finishing the chores at the school, Mu Qingyan went out and visited every household to see the elderly who were still not fully recovered from their illnesses.

Everyone was very grateful and wanted to express their thanks, but they were short of money and could not even offer a bowl of tea. They could only give plain water. They were afraid that the noble man would despise them, so they washed their hands again and again and wiped the bowl of water again and again.

Mu Qingyan never refused anyone and never showed any disgust or displeasure.

He told the patient to rest well, left some medicine, and left.

I happened to see the last one and met Yueban who went there to get some information.

"how?"

Yueban told the truth, "I heard her talking to someone and found out that she also followed a familiar figure on the street. The person she was talking to was an old woman, very old, and her face looked like it had been burned, with most of it destroyed. I heard her call the old woman Aunt Tan..."

Mu Qingyan naturally didn't know who Nanny Qin was. She told Yue Ban, "Take a few people and stay here to protect Sang Bai. I'm going to the Gu family."

She believed that Jinqiu's guilt towards Gu Qingqiu was not false.

But if she knew anything else, she would also want to know it.

After all, she still has to deal with the Lan family. The Lan family comes from a prominent family and has the support of the empress dowager. If she doesn't have solid evidence to take her down in one fell swoop, she won't act rashly.

If you miss the target at first, it would be even more difficult to deal with if you alert the enemy.

I bought some gifts and snacks on the way, then got on a carriage and went to Gu's house.

Old Master Gu and several uncles and cousins ​​had gone out of town to train their troops, leaving only the women at home.

The doorman went to announce that the young lady had arrived. The old lady and several other ladies were all overjoyed, including Madam Yuan.

"As soon as she saw someone walk in, Madam Yuan started talking. Your grandmother and I were just talking about you, and you came back. Isn't that a coincidence?"

Mu Qingyan went forward and greeted the elders one by one, and then greeted Yuan Ying, and then answered Madam Yuan's question, "Is it because Yan'er hasn't come to see grandma recently that grandma is unhappy?"

As she spoke, she stepped forward and took the hand that Old Madam Gu extended to her, acting like a little girl.

Yuzhan just handed the snacks she bought to the maids serving the ladies.

"I brought some snacks. I don't know if they'll suit grandma and my aunts' taste. Let's try them..."

She brought it specially, and even though she didn't like desserts, she would still eat some and praise it for being thoughtful.

"I am very happy that you can come back to see an old woman like me. What else do you want to bring? I am discussing your dowry with your aunts. Things from our Gu family will not enter the Mu family, but you will have to get a dowry. Not only that, but it must be splendid! But your aunt will go back to Huaiyang with your uncle soon. It's a pity that she can't see you get married in person..."

When talking about this, Mrs. Yuan's eyes turned red.

The eldest lady of the Gu family, Yu, spoke up, "My younger sister finally came back to Beijing, why not stay a few more days and spend more time with mother? The Gu family has been guarding Chiling Pass, and now there is no war for the time being, so they should not leave Beijing in the short term. The family has finally reunited, and now we have to separate again. Not to mention mother, as her sister-in-law, I feel bad when I think about it..."
