letter of commitment

6.

Mu Chu felt that his body was light and light, and then he came to the sky above Mu's mansion. Looking at the people below, Mu Chu saw that the people in the mansion were in a mess, and during the period, people carrying medicine boxes kept going in the same direction , Mu Chu followed, came to the West Courtyard, and saw that the people carrying the medicine boxes had all entered the Lintong Courtyard where she lived now, she heard crying, this voice seemed to be from her mother...

At this time, she saw her little self kneeling in the garden again, but the people who came and went ignored her, they just kept going in and out of the house, and the expressions of the people who came out were all full of pain, even a few A little maid came out wiping her tears.

Mu Chu walked in, but the people around didn't seem to notice her existence, they were all busy with the things at hand. She saw her mother leaning over the bed and crying, during which time she kept calling for the person lying on the bed. The name of the villain, while Dad talked with the person carrying the medicine box with a serious face but could not hide his sadness.

Mu Chu went to the bed again and saw clearly the villain lying on the bed, it was a little girl, but her face had lost all color, and the obscene clothes she was wearing that should have been white turned blood red at this moment.Mu Chu remembered that the person lying on the bed was his sister, mother's real daughter, named Mu Xi, and he was just the result of his father's ignorance of hanging out with that woman outside. I learned from the discussion of the next people.She only knows that she has never seen her biological mother since she was conscious, and has been living in the Mu Mansion, but no one in the mansion treats her very much except her father, and her mother just treats her existence with cold eyes. Give much attention.It's just that Mu Chu would feel very envious when seeing his mother's love and care for Mu Xi sometimes.

Until one day, when Mu Chu heard Mu Xi and herself complaining that her mother was taking too much care of her and that she really wanted to see the outside world, she kindly suggested sneaking out to play. She knew there was a very interesting place on the mountain behind. .Although every time the two could not escape the ending of being carried home by the servant who came out to find someone, the two never tired of it.

To this day, the two are still playing in the old place as usual, Mu Xi is a ghost, and she hides herself.It's just that she didn't hide for long before she heard Mu Xi's shout. When Mu Chu thought it was just a trick to lure her out, she heard the voices of several men. When she followed the sound to find Mu Xi, She saw several men with knives holding Mu Xi to the ground and doing something to them. Mu Xi struggled a lot, but she couldn't hold back the crowd, and was even beaten because of her own struggle.Seeing such a scene, Mu Chu only felt that she wanted to find someone to save her sister, so she quickly ran back to the house to bring someone over, but when she brought them to the scene, there were still those men. , only Mu Xi was left disheveled lying in a pool of blood.So there is the scene I see now.

It's a pity that Mu Xi didn't hold back, and finally left. She remembered that her mother looked at her with nothing but resentment, because her mother told her why it wasn't her who suffered these things, but hers. Mu Xi.

Mu Chu lowered her eyes, but suddenly the scene changed again, this time she came to the house where her father and mother lived, and she could hear their conversation.

"Xi'er has already left... There is nothing I can do... Madam must cheer up... The family still needs your care, you can't fall down." It was Yuan Wai who spoke. "Although Xi'er is gone, we still have Chu'er..."

"Mu Nian! Mu Chu is just a bastard you gave birth to with other women outside! How can you be compared with my Xi'er! She is the one who killed my Xi'er..."

"Ma'am! Chu'er is my daughter! Also your daughter! I know that Xi'er's departure hurts you, but it has nothing to do with Chu'er."

Later, I don't know how my father persuaded my mother, so I was brought up under my mother's name. In order not to attract people's tongue, my father sent all the servants of the magistrate away, and said to the outside world that it was Mu who did the funeral. The second young lady of the mansion contracted an emergency, but failed to ask for medicine, so she let go, and because of this, she became the legal daughter of the Mu mansion.

It's ridiculous that I was still young at the time, and I didn't feel anything special about the change of my identity. I just knew that I could have my mother's love and care, but Mrs. Mu never looked at me directly, and sometimes she couldn't even see her mother's figure. arrive.Until one time she was playful and fell into the pool near the west courtyard. When she was picked up after drinking enough water, she saw the mother who had informed her, but her eyes were cold, but The foolish self thought that this was something that could attract mother's attention, so she kept tossing herself in the future, because mother would show up in this way.

Fortunately, the unpleasant things will be forgotten due to the passage of time, and my mother has gradually accepted herself, but she has more demands on herself...

Returning to reality, it is said that Shen Qingshu came straight out of the mansion after visiting Mu Chu. I have to say that there are many advantages to being a teacher in Mu's mansion. Monthly money is issued in advance.But Shen Qingshu knew in his heart why he came to Fengdu City, and he also knew that his identity as a woman might be discovered at any time. He suffered from the fact that there was no whereabouts of Uncle Sun, and the imperial examination still had to wait for more than half a year. I just hope that I can get through this time safely.

When I came to the street market, it was daytime, and the bustling crowd was even worse than what I saw at night when I first came to Fengdu. The surroundings were full of bargaining voices from buyers and stall owners. Occasionally, a few children playing I ran around by myself, so lively!

Wandering around leisurely, wrote down all kinds of shops on each street, first went to the tea house to drink tea, and then went to the cloth shop to cut some clothes, although the clothes tailors and materials prepared by the mansion were excellent Yes, but few fit.

After leaving Buzhuang, it was already noon, and the inventory in my stomach had bottomed out. I found a soup noodle stall and sat down to order a bowl of noodles. Then I heard the shouts of selling Fuling cakes again.For some reason, I thought of Mu Chu. She seemed to be responsible for her illness, and then she had to drink medicine when she was sick. Naturally, the medicine was bitter. Thinking of the feelings Mu Chu gave her these days, she decided that she would not Obediently drink the medicine, this tuckahoe cake is not only a small snack to relieve the craving for a while, but also has medicinal value in preventing colds and promoting digestion. After thinking about it, I quickly finished eating the noodles and paid for it. I found a seller of Fuling cakes I packed a copy in front of the stall, and it would be good to take it back to her.After strolling around for a while, I rushed to Mu Mansion.

(Mu Mansion, West Court, Lintong Court)

When Mu Chu woke up, he saw that he was still lying on the bed. It turned out that those were dreams...

"Miss, you are awake, but do you still feel unwell?" Chang Chun walked in and asked.

"I want to drink……"

Hearing Mu Chu's request, Changchun went to pour water for him, "Miss, it's good that you are awake, otherwise you will almost die of slaves" and handed the poured water to Mu Chu.

"How long did I sleep for?" After drinking all the water and almost choking, Changchun replied obediently, "More than four hours."

"so long……"

"Fortunately, the fever is gone. Miss, are you hungry? Do you need a servant to prepare some food for you?"

"Alright, let's go."

After Changchun left, I saw another servant girl coming in, holding something in her hand, it couldn't be... "Miss, it's time to drink medicine."

as expected! "You take it away, I don't want to drink the medicine, and what are you in charge of, what is your name, why have I never seen you before."

When Mu Chu heard this, he strongly resisted and tried to change the subject.

"My maidservant's name is Xiaohe, and I used to work in the dining room. In the future, I will live with Changchun's elder sister and waitress." But he didn't put down the medicine in his hand. "Miss, medicine..."

"Take it away, I don't want to drink it..." Woohoo, the medicine is so bitter, Mu Chu thought about crying without tears.

The master and the servant were at such a stalemate, and when Xiao He was anxious about how to persuade his young lady to take the medicine obediently, a voice came from behind, "Why don't you take the medicine when you are sick?" It was Shen Qingshu who came.Shen Qingshu put down the things in his hand, came to Xiao He's side, and took the medicine from Xiao He's hand.I knew she wouldn't drink medicine obediently.

"I don't know if there are candied fruit in the house? Please trouble the girl to get some." Shen Qingshu said to Xiao He.

"But this medicine..."

"Just leave it to me."

Hearing what Shen Qingshu said, Xiao He felt relieved.

"What are you doing here?" When Mu Chu saw Shen Qingshu, he felt inexplicably angry. If it wasn't for this guy, he wouldn't be copying books late at night and getting cold.

Shen Qingshu was not angry when he heard Mu Chu's angry question. "When you are sick, you have to drink medicine."

"I said I won't drink." Mu Chu simply turned his head to one side, not looking at him.

"How can you get better if you don't drink medicine?" Shen Qingshu was also patient. (So ​​what is the use of the Fuling cake you bought?)

"If you don't drink, you don't drink! Don't worry about it, and how you got in, get out!" Mu Chu pretended to get up and chase people away. "If you want to copy it another twenty times, you don't have to drink it." Shen Qingshu said it lightly, but it played a certain role.

"You!" Mu Chu really didn't expect him to say such a thing, is it true? "Punish me twenty times again, and I won't drink!" I, Mu Chu, have made up my mind, what can you do to me?

"really?"

"Seriously!" Shen Qingshu sat on the side of the bed as soon as he finished speaking, "What are you doing!"

"If you don't want to drink it yourself, then someone Shen can only do it for you and feed Miss Mu the medicine." As he spoke, he scooped up the medicine soup and brought it to Mu Chu's mouth.Then he said in a coaxing tone, "Open your mouth, ah~"

Mu Chu was obviously stunned by Shen Qingshu's operation, and obediently opened his mouth to drink the medicine, but was soon brought back to reality by the bitter taste. "Ouch~ it's so bitter!"

"Good medicine tastes bitter and is good for the disease." As he spoke, he wanted to deliver the medicine to the other party, but Mu Chu snatched the thing from her hand.

"I'll do it myself! Don't bother Mr.!" He squeezed his nose and drank it down, but he choked bitterly.Seeing this, Shen Qingshu hurriedly recited it for her, but this scene was seen by Changchun and Xiaohe who just came back.Seeing how the two of them stood still, Shen Qingshu realized that his behavior was inappropriate, and hurriedly backed away. Mu Chu also blushed because of this intimate gesture.The atmosphere became tense for a while.

In the end, it was Chang Chun who endured the complicated emotions in his heart and said, "Please also ask Miss to change clothes and eat." After speaking, he motioned to Xiao He to change clothes for Mu Chu, while he set up the dishes himself, and naturally noticed what Shen Qingshu brought. "This is……"

"Ah, this is Poria cocos cake, which has the effect of preventing colds and aiding digestion. I bought some when I happened to see something on sale when I went out today. So Shen has something to do, so I will leave first, and leave." The reaction went like the wind.
