Chapter 1 There's a Treasure Girl in the Shepherd's House
In the season when spring is warm and flowers are blooming and everything is reviving, there is a slim girl in the back garden of a large mansion in the capital. She was picking up the peach blossoms that were knocked down by the heavy rain the night before, one by one, and wrapped them in a veil.
Her expression was not as sad as Lin Daimei for falling flowers, but instead she smiled with the innocent and romantic girl.
"Girl, the flowers are dirty. What are you doing?" A girl next to her couldn't help asking.
"I like it." After saying that, Mu Yingbao walked to the lake not far away, raised his hands and threw the flowers in the handkerchief into the lake one by one.
"Annie, look, aren't it good?" Mu Yingbao looked at the peach blossoms on the lake, waving with the ripples blowing from the breeze. The beauty was completely different from the beauty on the peach tree.
The girl nodded, thinking that the girl was really different from the other girls in the mansion, and her head was full of strange things.
"Girl, my maid's name is An Yi." The girl couldn't help but correct her.
The person by the lake turned around and frowned slightly and asked her, "Am I your master?"
The girl nodded, although she had been following her for a few days, so was that.
"Then your master, I like to call you Annie. Do you have any objections?" Mu Yingbao asked again with Changyin.
Ah? Well, how dare you have an objection? "If the girl likes it, then my maid will call Annie in the future." The girl then realized that it was not because the master heard it wrongly, remembered it wrongly, and called it wrongly, but it was intentional.
"Annie, when is it? Is it time for lunch?" Mu Yingbao said, and without waiting for anyone to answer, he shook the handkerchief in his hand and walked in the direction he was in.
This is the third day she was taken to the Mu Mansion. Although she is not familiar with the people in this mansion, it has to be said that the food in the Mu Mansion is still good. Although it is a bit worse than her own, she still enjoys the days when she is dressed and food.
If you don’t enjoy happiness, you are a fool. What’s more, the current environment is not as stable as she looks, and she doesn’t intend to show her cooking skills. She doesn’t want to make her own food for these people with ulterior motives.
After the two walked away, five people came out behind the rockery by the lake.
Two maids dressed up, and three more were the three ladies from the Mu Mansion.
"Girl, look at her. She has never seen the world and is uneducated in the countryside. She has only been in the door for a few days and she has really regarded herself as her master." A maid said indignantly.
"Shut up, no matter what, that's my sister. I must have suffered a lot when I've been away over the years. My father and her father are brothers of my fellow-in-law. Since she has news about her, she knows that she is an orphan outside, so of course she has to take her back.
If your power neglects her, don't blame me for not talking about the relationship between master and servant." Mu Jinyi glared at her apricot and scolded her maid.
"What the elder sister said is that Bao sister is also a pitiful person. The manager said that when she was three years old, her fourth uncle passed away, and when she was five years old, her fourth aunt was gone. Fourth aunt was not a local person, and she had no care of her parents. They also said that Bao sister was a disaster that killed her parents.
So, no one is willing to adopt her.
Fortunately, the fourth uncle is very popular there, and the neighbors didn't care about it. It means that Sister Bao grew up eating a hundred families of food." The person who spoke was born to Aunt Lu, the eldest house of the Mu family, and was named Mu Jinshuang.
"Okay, my mother and several aunts are making silk skirts for Sister Bao. It's not good for us sisters to be idle. The two sisters go over and take a look first, and it's good to help chop and embroider the thread. Sister, I'll go to the kitchen first and ask someone to make another peanut pastry. Yesterday, I looked at Sister Bao and seemed to like it very much." Mu Jinyi said with a very old sister style.
"What my elder sister said is very much, then we'll go now." Mu Jinlian, who came out of Aunt Chen in the Great Room, quickly responded.
The three girls from the Mu Mansion were divided into two groups and left each.
They all walked a long way, Mu Jinlian turned around and looked in the direction where her elder sister left, and said, "I really don't know that my elder sister and mother are such kind people. Which one did they sing?"
"Shh, whisper, be careful that disaster comes from your mouth. Sooner or later, you will suffer losses. I've said how many times have you been? Our mansion is so charming. If you hear it, you and I will be punished to kneel to the ancestral hall. What if you hurt your aunt and are driven to the village, what if you are sorry for it?" Mu Jinshuang was so angry that she pointed her sister's forehead with her fingers and warned in a low voice.
Mu Jinlian was still very dissatisfied; "I just couldn't stand their hypocritical appearance. They always had one thing in front of outsiders, and another behind their backs. The fourth uncle and fourth aunt did not leave any home title deed for Bao sister. What was their intention to pretend to be? Who did they want to show it to?"
After hearing this, Mu Jinshuang looked around again and saw that there was indeed no one, so she whispered, "Are you really stupid or fake stupid? You won't move your head. Think about it carefully? In fact, my father has known about Sister Bao for a long time.
But why don’t you pick it up early and late? But you pick it up at this time? Don’t you think something is wrong?"
Ah? Yes, after hearing Mu Jinshuang's mention, Mu Jinlian suddenly remembered that several years ago, my aunt had told me about this. At that time, my aunt also said that she was pitiful to that child, no matter how much she said, it was all the blood of the Mu family, but she was alone outside.
He also said that the Mu family’s financial resources didn’t care about raising more mouths.
However, it seemed that my father had no reason to pick him up at that time, and it seemed that he learned that the baby sister was an ominous person.
"Sister said this, I remembered it. Yes, why are you taken back now? It's not that the wedding date between my elder sister and Prince Xue is approaching, so I'll take her back for a wedding banquet? That's not right. Since she was a ominous person back then, shouldn't the big sister avoid the day of her happy life?" Mu Jinlian seemed to understand something just now, but after thinking about it carefully, she became even more confused.
Mu Jinshuang looked at her sister who was not born by the same mother but who had the same identities in front of her. "Are you stupid? I tell you, don't complain about anything you are used to or dislike.
Both your biological mothers are aunts, and their identities are not as good as that one. So what if they can’t stand their hypocrisy towards the precious sister?
You just said that the marriage date with Prince Xue is coming, but two months ago, there were rumors that the prince who escorted the prince of Xiyue back to his country was intercepted and killed by an unknown person on the way back. Until now, he has never seen anyone in his life or a corpse.
What's more, the granddaughter of Yongwei Marquis was named a concubine when he entered the palace and was deeply favored. As for the daughter of Marquis Ding'an, Xue Yi, Concubine Xue, caused a noble man to have a premature birth due to restlessness. Although he was not sent to the cold palace by the emperor, it was no different from following the cold palace. The Xue family was no longer in glory.
Our father already regrets this marriage, but he just can't grasp the Holy Will. He is not sure whether the Xue family is really beginning to decline? Whether it will turn the tables in the future, so hesitated and did not say that he broke the engagement.
Think about it again, how could our high-minded sister be willing to be a widow?"
"Ah? Second sister, do you mean?" No matter how stupid Mu Jinlian was, she understood it now, but she still couldn't believe it.
"Sister's meaning is very simple. If you don't want to be a victim and marry into the Xue family for our good sister, just keep your mouth shut. Especially in front of Sister Bao, say less about what you have or not." Mu Jinshuang warned again cautiously.
She also sympathized with the precious sister, but she didn't dare to do this good person.
Oh, I understand. Mu Jinlian immediately stuck out her tongue after hearing the powerful relationship. She didn't want to marry a widow, so what about the prince's concubine? She may be a widow for the rest of her life.
These two sisters didn't know that the little white rabbit who fell into a trap in their eyes, Sister Bao, knew that there was something wrong with it before they were picked up.
If family affection was taken into consideration, I would have brought people back long ago! I would be dedicated to my carelessness if I had nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief!
But she lived in that place where she didn't care for three years and was already tired of being tired. She took this opportunity to go to Beijing for free and also provide food and accommodation. As for the real purpose of the Mu family picking her up into the mansion, she didn't take it seriously. The ancestor had thirty-six strategies, and it was really inappropriate. At worst, she could leave.
Of course, you can't come in vain when you come, and you can't leave empty-handed. Want to design her? That's not free...
