【003】 Embroidery

After the fourth update, the snow outside the window became heavier and the bitter cold wind poured in through the thin window paper, and the coldness penetrated the bones.

The autumn rain had already stopped. Ye Jin was still holding a bronze mirror in his hand, staring at the face in front of him in the dim lights, and his thoughts couldn't help but float far away.

From the conversation between the two just now, Ye Jin probably knew his current situation.

Mu Zhennan, the Dingguo of Southern Jin Dynasty, had heard that although she lived in the harem of Northern Yan, sometimes Chu Jingheng would accidentally reveal some news.

At that time, the ancestors of the Mu family followed Emperor Xiao'an to expand their territory and made great achievements in their military achievements. They were highly valued by Emperor Xiao'an, and were therefore named the Dingguo Magistrate. Now, although many years have passed, the Dingguo Magistrate's Mansion has not declined, but has become more and more prosperous in the hands of Mu Zhennan, and has gradually become a century-old family.

Mu Zhennan had a high prestige in the court, was extremely sleek in his behavior, never offends others, and never participated in various party struggles. Therefore, even Emperor Xiaocheng, who was extremely suspicious, trusted him very much.

Mu Qing's biological mother came from the Xie family in Chen County. When Emperor Xiao'an was in power, the Xie family was originally a family of Zhongming and Ding Food, but later gradually declined.

Mr. Mu was happy to travel everywhere during his lifetime. When he was in Luoxia Mountain in Dongzhou, he encountered a vicious bandit, but fortunately he was rescued by Xie Ling'er, the youngest daughter of the Xie family.

In order to repay his life-saving kindness, Mr. Mu felt that Xie Ling'er was smart and charming, so he soon got married to Mr. Xie and asked Mr. Xie to marry him to the capital.

When Xie Ling'er married Mu Zhennan, she already had a concubine in the mansion. She was originally Liang Yan, the concubine's daughter of the deputy governor of Qionghai, and had given birth to the eldest son of Mu An. Xie Ling'er was pregnant the first year, but she accidentally gave birth to miscarriage. Two years later, she gave birth to Mu Qing.

A few months later, Liang Mei gave birth to her daughter Mu Weilan, which was extremely favored by Mu Zhennan.

When Mu Qing was seven years old, it was Mrs. Mu's 60th birthday. The guests who came from the Marquis's Mansion were all famous ladies and ladies who went to the capital.

At that time, Liang Qiong was pregnant again.

In the hot summer, Xie Ling'er, as the hostess of the Marquis's mansion, naturally wanted to accompany you all wives and ladies.

Then, by the pond, Xie Ling'er pushed Liang Mei, who was pregnant at the time, into the pond in front of everyone, and the child was not saved immediately.

Mu Zhennan was furious and wanted to divorce his wife immediately, but Liang Jing pleaded for Xie Ling'er, and was later locked up in the ancestral hall facing the wall.

Because of Liang Jing’s miscarriage, Mu Zhennan was already angry. Later, according to the doctor, Liang Jing’s pregnancy might be another son, so he became more and more disgusted with Xie Ling'er.

At the same time, Mrs. Mu also felt very dissatisfied with Xie Ling'er.

But although Xie Ling'er is simple, she is not stupid. She will never admit what she hasn't done. She was originally a strong personality. No matter how Mu Zhennan forced her to ask, she said that she had never done it and refused to admit it.

Later, Mu Zhennan was too lazy to ask again, but he still hated Xie Ling'er for doing something wrong and refused to admit it, so he kept her in the ancestral hall. However, he didn't expect that in the middle of the night two months later, Xie Ling'er actually committed suicide by hanging herself on the beam.

In order to avoid quarrels and to avoid causing trouble by Xie, Mrs. Mu immediately killed all the maids and servants who knew about this in the mansion, and only claimed that Xie Ling'er died of illness.

Just a year after Xie Ling'er's death, Mu Zhennan straightened Liang Jing's concubine and became Mu Qing's stepmother.

But what is strange is that when Mu Qing was nine years old, he inexplicably suffered a serious illness. The disease came in a fierce way and the doctor was almost helpless.

But somehow, maybe Mu Qing's life should not be lost, so he survived it, but because of the continuous high fever, he became a fool.

The Huaiyin Marquis Mansion had an engagement with the Dingguo Marquis Mansion. It was just because Xie Ling'er had a handkerchief with the wife of Huaiyin Marquis when she was three years old. The two families got married when Mu Qing was three years old.

Later, Mu Qing became a fool. Although Mrs. Hou thought of her friendship with Xie Ling'er, Mu Qing could not be a mistress, so she intentionally broke off the engagement. However, before the marriage was completed, Mu Zhennan obeyed Liang Jing's words and sent Mu Qing to the ancient temple in the deep mountains for a restful cultivation.

After only half a year after Mu Qing went to the ancient temple, he was treated extremely harshly by the Taoist nun in the temple. Later, a young nun died of a serious illness. Qiuyu had always been clever, so he discussed with Mu Qing to escape from the ancient temple.

After changing the nun's Ziyi and Mu Qing's, Qiuyu took away all the valuable things in the house and pretended to be a mess.

Even if the people in the temple discovered that Mu Qing died of illness, the maid around him fled with silver and jewelry because of greed for money.

In just two days, Mu Qing died of a serious illness, which reached Liang Jing's ears. In order to ensure that Mu Qing was dead, Liang Jing sent someone to examine the body.

But because the little nun didn't know what disease he had, her face was already unclear, and her body was very similar to Mu Qing's, she had hidden it from Liang Jing's eyes.

At this point, Mu Qing completely disappeared into this world. Miss Mu San, who only knew the name of a talented woman, was far away from the crowd, but she didn't know that Miss Mu Er had already left the ancient temple and lived in seclusion in a remote village, living in a hidden place for five years.

Because Mu Qing was "dead", the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion still wanted to become a relative of the Marquis Mansion of Dingguo. After all, Mu Zhennan was also famous in the officialdom, and the marriage between the two families was beneficial and harmless, so he replaced the person who had originally been engaged with Mu Weilan...

Ye Jin lowered his eyelashes and thought quietly.

I thought that Mu Qing, as a daughter of a daughter, was forced to go to the temple, so he had to escape under the name of death. He couldn't help but feel some sympathy for this body.

Then, Ye Jin laughed at herself. The world has always been like this, so why isn’t she full of grievances? Fortunately, God has eyes, so she lets her live for a lifetime.

Ye Jin closed his eyes and silently recited in his heart: From now on, there will be no Ye Jin in this world, only Mu Qing, who lives by revenge.

In this life, she must make the Ye family feel guilty and let those who have harmed her and Ye family get retribution one by one.

The next day, the snow had stopped.

Qiuyu got up early, yelled, rubbed his hands, and picked up the shovel and went to the small piece of land in front of the wooden house, and shoveled the snow with all his might.

Because of the heavy snowfall for several days, most of the vegetables were frozen. Qiuyu sighed while shoveling: "Girl, what should we do? We just live on this land, and we may not be able to eat this dish for a few days."

Mu Qing looked calm and stared at Qiu Yu shoveling snow quietly without saying a word. After a long time, he said: "There are still some rice and grain in the room, and there is no vegetables. This rice can last for a few more days."

After saying that, Mu Qing returned to the wooden house.

However, when Qiuyu heard this, she couldn't help but pause and looked at Mu Qing's slim back in disbelief. She had discovered from last night that something seemed wrong with the girl since she woke up.

In the past, the girl was not very clear, so why did she be so awake? Qiuyu thought about it and then smiled unconsciously. It was because of her wife's blessing, so the girl's illness was probably cured.

Thinking of this, Qiuyu couldn't help but work harder in shoveling snow because of joy.

In the room, Mu Qing sat quietly by the window, embroidering a handkerchief.

Her embroidery skills have always been excellent. Because she knew that Chu Jingheng liked piano, chess, calligraphy and painting and was good at knitting women's red, she asked her father to specially invite the best embroiderer in Yanjing to teach.

She is also a smart person, and she quickly learned it, and she is better than her.

Mu Qing lowered his head and thought, it would snow heavily from time to time in winter, and vegetables would probably not be planted well; only by embroidering a few handkerchiefs, selling them at a good price, and buying some dry food, can you survive.

Otherwise, if you don’t have food in this cold winter, you may not be able to get through it.
