The peerless and dark princess
Chapter 6 Meeting the Old Lady of the Mu Family
Early the next morning, Yihua got up from the side room and was about to go into the room to wake up Mu Wange, but she ran into Mu Wange coming back from outside. Yihua was a little surprised because her young lady usually would not get up at this time.
"Miss, are you going out?" Yihua looked at her and asked carefully.
"No, I just took a walk in the yard. I've been lying in bed for a long time these days, so I got up early this morning and went out for a walk. Yihua, have someone prepare some water for me and the young master to wash up."
Mu Wange gave the order, and then returned to the dormitory to wake up Mu Haolin. Mu Wange looked at the cute Mu Haolin who had just woken up, and her heart softened.
But then, Mu Haolin saw the person in front of her retreat subconsciously, which made her helpless. Because of the original owner, she could only approach Mu Haolin slowly. Fortunately, he was still a child and it was not too late.
"Lin'er, come here, let me put clothes on you, okay?" Mu Wange picked up the clothes that the servants brought to Mu Haolin last night, and couldn't help but frowned when she looked at them, because they were not suitable for a child at all, and they were a bit hard.
It seems that everyone in Mu Haolin's yard has been bribed. No wonder Mu Haolin has never been like a normal child.
Perhaps there were many secrets that Mu Wange didn't know. The original owner simply blamed Mu Haolin for leaving her motherless, and because of the instigation of Mu Ruohan and her daughter, she hadn't paid much attention to this legitimate brother. It was rare that the old lady's favor had allowed Mu Haolin to grow up, but still... Mu Wange's heart turned cold instantly.
At this time, Mu Haolin stepped back imperceptibly, looking at her with wet eyes, as if he was very scared. However, he felt so comfortable sleeping next to his sister last night, much better than sleeping in the yard, and he wanted to touch Mu Wange again. When Mu Wange came back to her senses, she saw a cute Mu Haolin. She was afraid that he would be cold, so she put on the clothes for him.
Mu Wange carried the washed Mu Haolin to the dining table in the front hall and put him down. The thoughtful Yihua had already set the tableware. She picked up the bowl on the table and filled half a bowl of porridge for the little carrot head. "Lin'er, drink porridge first in the morning. It's good for your health." At the same time, she gestured to Yihua to hand her the spoon.
Yihua handed the spoon to Mu Wange, secretly surprised. Ever since Madam Chu Wanran passed away, she hadn't visited the young master's courtyard. Every time she saw him in the old lady's courtyard, he looked displeased and resentful. Now, seeing Mu Wange treat Mu Haolin this way, she was naturally delighted. In the past, she only wanted to be with the Second Miss and Concubine Shen, and the young master would only go to see the Third Miss. It was truly pitiful, but she was too weak to speak up and was afraid of angering the young master. Now, at last, she had lived up to Madam's kindness.
Mu Wange, who was standing by, took Yihua's spoon and started feeding Mu Haolin porridge. Mu Haolin was a little stunned, because in all his memories, he had always liked Mu Wange and didn't want to get close to him. But then he remembered the warmth of sleeping with Mu Wange last night, which was much more comfortable than before, and he was stunned for a moment.
When he saw Mu Wange carefully blowing on the cool porridge before feeding it to him, he felt a little fond of this sister for some reason and opened his mouth.
Mu Wange fed Mu Haolin before eating breakfast herself, and Mu Haolin just sat there watching her eat, very quietly. Before long, this quiet and beautiful atmosphere was destroyed.
"Big sister, I heard that your dormitory was searched by the government last night. Really, I really don't take you seriously..." Mu Ruohan hurried in from outside and paused when she saw Mu Haolin sitting beside her. "Big sister, why did you bring this jinx back to the yard?"
Mu Wange stopped eating the bun and looked at Mu Haolin who was stabbing his finger because of Mu Ruohan's words. He suddenly lost the desire to continue eating breakfast. He took the handkerchief handed to him by Yihua, wiped the corners of his mouth and hands, and then picked up Mu Haolin.
"Second sister, what are you talking about? When did the legitimate son of the Shangshu Mansion become a jinx?!"
"Uh, big sister, didn't you say that before? Because 'Sweep...', uh, he killed mother!"
Mu Ruohan put the blame on Mu Wange. It was obvious that she and Shen had teamed up to deceive the original owner and then made up the story, which led to the Prince Yan's Mansion never caring about Mu Wange and her brother again. At the same time, she was angry with Mu Wange for not fighting for her. But no matter what, they were the children of the Shangshu Mansion, and the Prince Yan's Mansion could not interfere in other people's family affairs.
"That was because I was ignorant before. Now, I understand. Lin'er is the legitimate son of the Shangshu Mansion. This Shangshu Mansion will be inherited by Lin'er in the future. He also has the support of his grandfather and uncles in the Prince of Yan's Mansion. If he can get married and have someone to support him, why not? Don't you agree, second sister!!!"
Mu Wange deliberately said that Mu Haolin was the legitimate son and that Prince Yan's Mansion supported them.
"Uh. Of course," Mu Ruohan was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She had to maintain a gentle appearance, albeit a little distorted. "But if my mother becomes the wife and my brother is the legitimate son, then wouldn't big sister have more to rely on, right?"
"Well, you know, grandma is the housekeeper. Second sister, can't you just go and convince grandma?"
Mu Wange weighed Mu Haolin in her arms and walked out, while Mu Haolin just stayed in Mu Wange's arms obediently, hugging her neck tightly, as if he was a little afraid of Mu Ruohan~
Mu Ruohan thought to herself: If she could convince that damn old woman, she wouldn't have come to her. She tugged at the handkerchief in her hand, only to find that Mu Wange had left. She quickly chased after her, "Hey, big sister, where are you going?"
"Go pay your respects to Grandma!"
Mu Wange's voice came from outside the door.
Mu Wange had indeed gone to pay his respects to the old lady, and while he was there, he wanted to talk to her about the matter of Nanny Gu, bringing Mu Haolin back to his own courtyard, and replacing some of the servants there. Now that the old lady was in charge, it was natural to report to her. After all, unlike his foolish father, this old lady was more reasonable.
Mu Ruohan ultimately failed to catch up with Mu Wange. By the time she arrived, Mu Wange and Mu Haolin were already enjoying tea beside the old lady, looking so happy. Mu Ruohan was filled with jealousy. She, her mother, and her brother served the old woman daily, yet she never treated them kindly. Even that bitch Mu Lanxin could earn her a smile, yet why couldn't they, after all their hard work, earn her a little kindness? "Once my mother secures her position as Madam, I'll definitely give this old lady a lesson..." Mu Ruohan thought, her jealousy subsiding, unaware that the old lady's servants and Mu Wange had already seen through her.
"Ruohan, pay your respects to grandma." Mu Ruohan took a deep breath and saluted the old lady Jiang gracefully.
"Well, Ruohan is here. Get up and sit down. Your sister hasn't come to see grandma for a long time. She just told me something!" Jiang took a sip of tea.
"Ah? What are you talking about, sister? It was last night..." Mu Ruohan pretended to cover her mouth carelessly.
However, there were no fools in this room; everyone understood. Jiang was about to speak when Mu Qiaoyun and Mu Lanxin came in. Mu Lanxin also brought her younger brother Mu Yuqi, who was Mu Wange's fourth brother.
"Big sister, was our dormitory searched last night?" The speaker was Mu Qiaoyun. She had always been on the same page with Muruohan. In many things, Muruohan used her mouth to stir up trouble, which did not go well with the old lady, like now.
"Lanxin, Yuqi pays respects to grandmother." Mu Lanxin and her brother bowed obediently, as if they didn't hear what Mu Qiaoyun and Mu Ruohan said.
Mu Qiaoyun was stunned for a moment before she remembered that she had not given the old lady anything yet. She felt embarrassed and was about to bow and greet her.
"That's enough! You're just like that..." The old lady looked at Mu Qiaoyun sternly, "Just sit aside."
"Just now you said that the eldest girl's yard was searched. Did you see it with your own eyes?"
The old lady looked around, especially Ruohan and Qiaoyun, who both lowered their heads, while Mu Wange held Mu Haolin in one hand and took a sip of tea in the other.
Jiang was relieved. This girl had finally cleared her head, and her three years of favoritism were worth it. If she didn't wake up, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to protect them. "I know how to spread rumors. The eldest girl was helping the government catch the criminals, so how did it get spread? Tell me, who spread it?"
