Miss Mu and the Canary

Chapter 40

Because today I just came to familiarize myself with the venue, after a while, Mu Xing and the third uncle left.

As soon as he got out of the pharmacy, Mu Xing hurriedly looked at Fu Guang, Fu Guang's eyes flickered for a while, and he followed Mu Xing and whispered about the ham.As soon as he heard that the ham would arrive in the evening, Mu Xing was in a good mood immediately, and felt that everything was going well. On the way back, he talked and laughed at Yanyan, which made the third uncle couldn't help but look at her several times.

After returning to Muyuan and exchanging thoughts with his uncle, Mu Xing went back to his study to sort out the files and notes brought back from the medical hall.It's just that she can always concentrate on work, but today she can't calm down.

I changed my pen for a while, I was in a daze for a while, and I tossed and tossed for a long time. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, the notes still stopped at the very first page.After a closer look, it was written "The only symptom of this disease is ham porridge, lotus root, ham soup, ham and fried peas"...I wrote a long paragraph of nonsense sentences and various recipes, and finally it all became two words: white Yan.

One stroke at a time, the two characters with pen and ink like a flower, rolled between the lips and teeth, and finally tapped on the lips, forming a series of unstoppable smiles.

"Fuguang, is the ham here?"

After urging and asking for countless times, Fuguang ran back and forth to the kitchen for countless times, and finally brought good news: "It's delivered, it's delivered..."

Throwing away the pen, Mu Xing stood up and ran to the kitchen, Fuguang followed behind, with a tangled expression, hesitating to speak.

Mu Xing ran to the kitchen to have a look, and sure enough, two very fresh hams were delivered, and the cook was arranging for someone to put the hams away.

After confirming that her mother was not near the kitchen, she quickly found Aunt Liu, and ordered a bunch of dishes like last time.After the last time, Aunt Liu had an idea in mind, and after writing it down in the small book, everything was arranged smoothly.

The thing she had been thinking about was finally settled, so that Mu Xing could go back to her room to do her work in peace. She turned around to go upstairs, but she happened to meet the confused look behind her, and Mu Xing couldn't help frowning.

Ok?

It seemed that something was wrong with this girl since the afternoon. At that time, she had something on her mind and didn't have time to ask, but now she had to ask carefully.

Without opening her mouth directly, Mu Xing turned back to the study, followed by Fu Guang. While refilling tea in the study, she kept looking at Mu Xing several times.

Mu Xing just pretended not to know, and when Fuguang continued to make tea and was about to go out, she said slowly: "Fuguang."

Fu Guang hurriedly turned around: "Hey, what do you want Miss to order?"

Just looking at the note in front of him, Mu Xing said: "You have been with me for xx years, and now you are a grown girl, and you have many small thoughts hidden in your heart, but I, a young lady, don't know the same thing."

Hearing that her tone was wrong, Fu Guang was so frightened that he said repeatedly: "I don't have it, miss! God is sorry to see you, no matter what my thoughts are, they are all on you, miss!"

"Really?" Seeing that she was frightened, Mu Xing couldn't hold back for a moment, and almost laughed out loud.Tightening her throat, she continued: "I see that you are so out of your mind all day long, it's just that you are thinking about when you will be a good match for someone else. I think Steward Wang and his son are very accomplished. Listen Said it was a material for reading..."

Seeing that Mu Xing's candidate had been proposed, Fu Guang only thought she was serious, and blushed from fright.There was another burst of excuses in a hurry, and he was just about to swear to the sky to express his loyalty.Seeing that she was going to take it seriously, Mu Xing calmed down and said, "Then tell me what you've been thinking these days."

Hearing this, there was another burst of indescribable expressions on the smooth surface.After hesitating for a long time, she hesitated and said: "Yeah, it's nothing. It's just that I heard a rumor a few days ago and felt strange in my heart, so I thought about it for a few days."

Mu Xing didn't take it seriously and said, "What rumor?"

Fuguang glanced at her secretly, and said in a low voice: "Yes, I heard that the eldest lady of the Pa family had a foreign name, she, she..." After hesitating for a while, she didn't dare to continue. .

Mu Xing raised her eyebrows: "Pa's?" After thinking for a while, she suddenly remembered such a person, and said quickly: "You mean Pa Anni? She, can you still hear about her? I only heard that There was a fire at her house, and there was no news of her. What have you heard?"

Gritting her teeth, feeling overwhelmed, Fuguang said bluntly, "I heard that she married a woman!"

"Oh, it's just married... What did you say?!" Almost breaking the pen in his hand, Mu Xing was shocked.

"Let me tell you, Miss Pa is married to a woman! It's the female master who often comes to make clothes for his wife, and they are married!" After finishing speaking, Fu Guang quickly looked at his own lady, hoping to see what was "normal" "Performance.

Women, and women, married...?

I don't know why there was a shock in my heart, Mu Xing's eyes widened, and he couldn't speak for a while, but Miss Bai's appearance appeared inexplicably in front of him... No, what do you want Miss Bai to do at this time...

Fu Guang probed again: "Miss, don't you wonder what happened to them?"

Although she was with the young lady all day long, occasionally she would have time to chat with the women outside the kitchen.Then I heard that a few days ago, there was a room full of wine in the Caiyun Pavilion with gongs and drums, and all the "bang" tailors were invited to have a drink.If there is a broken mouth, news spreads that Miss Pa and the female master are married.

Some of the women in the kitchen said that Miss Pa was scared and perverted by the family affairs; Unbearable, with nose and eyes, it's like seeing how the two girls got into bed with their own eyes.

Mu Xing didn't reply, and after a while, she frowned and said, "This is his own business, you just have to listen to it, don't follow the rumors, you understand?"

"Whoever I can spread nonsense to, I'll tell Miss that you are alone..." Fu Guang curled his lips, but his heart became more and more uneasy.

When she talked about this matter with the young lady, it was meant to be a test.Based on her understanding of the young lady, the young lady will definitely feel very curious, ask a lot of questions, and then post another comment.The reaction at this time, however, was quite strange, as if... trying to cover up...

Thinking about what Uncle Song told her two days ago... about my aunt, and said that this disease is hereditary...

When he walked out of the study with the tea tray, Fu Guang realized that he broke out in a cold sweat.

...

Yuhua Shuyu in the early morning still had a lifeless atmosphere.

The practice of the book house is never to allow guests to stay overnight, so in the early morning, the gorgeous girls in the evening seem to have taken off their painted skins.All of them showed their true colors, unkempt, and ran around pulling their slippers.

"Little bitch, I'm in a hurry to find your man. What a day! I don't have eyes anymore..."

"My mouth smells so bad early in the morning, did I not brush my teeth?"

The sound of quarreling like rooster crowing resounded upstairs and downstairs, which made people's scalps tense up.

After closing the window with a "snap", Bai Yan frowned and sat back at the desk. Just as she was about to pick up the pen, she suddenly heard the door latch slam. She immediately got up and stuffed the manuscript paper that was full of the desk into the bed.

As soon as she turned around, Muma was standing at the door, with a half smile: "Are you up?"

Bai Yan smiled very naturally: "Just got up." Saying that, she hurriedly called the maid to make hot tea.

Sitting opposite Bai Yan, Mu's mother didn't hold back, and said straight to the point: "You have been doing business for the third son Mu alone for the past two months?"

Bai Yan nodded: "Master Mu is generous, he alone can beat two or three other people. Besides, it was Mu Ma before, you said, you want me to raise my status..."

Mother interrupted her: "I said so." Looking at her nails, she said again: "But it was before, what I want to ask you is, what about now?"

She was already prepared in her heart, Bai Yan didn't panic, she kept smiling: "Yes, it's all the old calendar from before. I will naturally listen to Mommy what to do now."

"Oh, that's right." Mama said casually, "Then what if I told you not to accept Mr. Mu's match again?"

Bai Yan originally planned to talk about lighting a big candle, but she didn't expect her mother to say that.

With a chill in her heart, she managed to stabilize her mind, and said with a smile: "Mum, what does this mean? I managed to stabilize Mr. Mu San. If I give up at this time, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

With a sneer, Mom's expression was sarcasm: "If you continue to develop, I'm afraid I'm the real 'empty man and money'!"

Her tone was stern, Bai Yan was frightened and her heart tightened, and she suddenly remembered what Fei Hua had told her, that Mu Ma did not allow her girls to have feelings for guests.If the mother finds out, she will either be tortured and abused, or resold, and the most terrifying thing is to be sent to a salt meat farm to be the most lowly prostitute...

However, she asked herself that she hadn't shown any flaws, and it didn't count if she was out of the game. When she came back to the hall, she never liked to participate in the girls' chats.Even speaking, he never showed any extreme attitude towards Mr. Mu, why...

Without time to think about it, Bai Yan forced herself to calm down, and said in an aggrieved tone: "Mum, what are you talking about? We are just playing around with the guests, how can we get distracted? The young masters are foolish and serious. Do you also take it seriously, Muma?"

Mu Ma looked at her and examined her eyes, and Bai Yan forced herself to say calmly: "If I don't do it honestly, how can the young masters be willing to spend money? It's not like you don't know how much I collect and how much filial piety I have. "

"Mother has been in this hall for many years, why haven't I seen it? I don't have the experience of mother, but I know a truth, what I hold in my hand is the real thing, other gossip, it's easy to say, but it's hard to hear." Punishment. I'm afraid that if the wind blows in my ears, my hands will be soft and I won't be able to hold the money. At that time, even if I am still alive, my heart will be cold, so why talk about money?"

She swore to the sky and said a lot, and then Muma turned her eyes, took a sip of tea, and her tone softened a lot: "Of course I know what kind of temper you are, but I am worried that you are stupid and naive, and you will fall into the pit of other young masters. I just mentioned a few words to you, but you should get serious and say something about 'gossip'."

Putting down the cup, Mama changed her tone again: "However, after so many years, I also understand a truth. What you say is empty words, and you are sincere when you take practical actions. I will find someone to look at it next month. NO.17 is a good day, I intend to leave you a big candle, don't let me down."

Bai Yan frowned, and was about to speak, but suddenly heard the singing of a turtle from downstairs: "Young Master Mu, please—" The women in the building suddenly became agitated, and the sound of clinking slippers kicked on the floor. There was a resounding sound, like a slam on the heart, which disturbed people's mind.

Mother has already got up and left the door: "Go to meet the guests when they arrive, and you know everything else in your own mind."
