Chapter 4 Full Moon
"Erlang, why do you think my sister is so ugly, not like mother and us at all?"
"Didn't your mother say that it will look good no matter how long it is. However, my sister is really ugly now.
Mu Guiying, who just woke up, heard the conversation between the two little kids and immediately couldn't laugh or cry. After thinking about it, how can there be two children here? Are they the two cheap brothers in the mouth of his father Mu Tianwang?
Thinking of this, Mu Guiying opened her eyes. Wow, two big 'red envelopes'. The two brothers Mu Tong and Mu Tie were a little chubby, and then put on a big red gown, which was really like a 'red envelope'. However, the two brothers are good-looking. Mu Guiying thought about the appearance of her biological parents, and she should not be bad, so she became proud. Regardless of our previous life or this life, we are all beautiful women.
"Dalang, look at your sister smiling."
"Well, yes. Mother, mother, look, my sister smiled at me and Erlang.
"Real? Guiying should like your two brothers very much. Dalang and Erlang, you have become brothers, and you should protect your sister in the future, okay?"
"I know, mother."
Mu Tong and Mu Tie were just three years old and were very fresh for everything, so when they saw Mu Guiying smile at their brothers, they immediately shouted at Zhong Erniang, who was dressing up beside them. Zhong Erniang would never let go of this opportunity to unite the brothers and sisters and take the opportunity to educate the two brothers. Mu Guiying beside him was both funny and warm.
"Madam, the owner sent someone to say that all the guests in front of him have arrived. Please take Brother Tong, Brother Tie and Sister Ying to the front to meet the guests."
"Okay, I'll be there in a minute."
See the guests? I said why the two brothers dressed like red envelopes. It turned out to be a full moon wine. Mu Guiying's mind turned around and remembered that today was her full moon. Turning his eyes, Mu Guiying sighed in his heart that the baby's body was weak. If he didn't want to sleep every day, he would sleep. In the past month, I don't seem to have done anything except eat and sleep. It's really a pig's life.
As she was reviewing, Mu Guiying felt dark in front of her eyes, and she was taken out of the cot. Smelling this familiar breath, Mu Guiying knew that it was Zhong Erniang. Zhong Erniang can be said to be a good mother. Since Mu Guiying was born, she has fed and taken good care of herself. This is a treatment that Mu Tong and Mu Tie have never enjoyed. Of course, the two brothers don't know.
Zhong Erniang walked in front with Mu Guiying in her arms, and Xiao Cui and Xiaohuan led Mu Tong and Mu Tie behind respectively. The group slowly left the back house and walked to the front yard. As soon as she got out of the house, Mu Guiying narrowed her eyes and felt the warmth of the sun on her body. The comfortable look on the little face made Zhong Erniang feel happy. At the same time, Zhong Erniang thought that her daughter liked the sun, so she made up her mind to go out more to bask in the sun in the future.
"The second lady is coming..."
Zhong Erniang just walked into the Zhongwu Hall. I don't know who saw it, so she shouted. Instantly, everyone in the hall looked at Zhong Erniang at the door, um, the baby girl in his arms - Mu Guiying. Long before going up the mountain, the guests heard that Mu Kezhai Mu Tianwang had a daughter, and when the baby girl was born, the room was still full of fragrance. Therefore, all the guests are curious about what Mu Guiying looks like.
"Second Lady, last time you came to my house, you envied me for having a daughter, and this time you got what you wanted."
Soon, a man broke the silent hall and slowly walked into the hall from behind Zhong Erniang. This man is dressed in a long gown with elegant temperament and a smile on his face. Behind him was also a woman holding a baby girl. However, this baby girl is one or two years older than Mu Guiying.
"Brother Hu, why are you here? At dawn, I thought you, a senior official, disdain to come to Mu Kezhai.
"At dawn, this is to blame Wen Yong for being late. Later, Wen Yong punished himself three cups, haha..."
Mu Tianwang stepped forward and took Hu Wenyong's arm and led him to the main position. It can be seen that the relationship between the two is unusual. Between walking and stopping, Mu Tianwang introduced Hu Wenyong to the guests at all tables, and the atmosphere slowly became warm. Zhong Erniang first asked Xiao Cui and Xiaohuan to sit on the chief with Mu Tong and Mu Tie to wait, but she approached the woman with Mu Guiying in her arms.
"Madam Hu, how can Xiuying come? Can Xiuying stand the bumpy all the way?
"Er Niang, I don't want to bring Xiuying here, but in a month, Xiuying will leave home to learn art. Wen Yong planned to have a banquet and go back to my mother's house to have a look.
"So that's..."
When Zhong Erniang chatted with Mrs. Hu, Mu Guiying also looked at Hu Xiuying opposite her. I have to say that this child is very beautiful and well-behaved. Although her eyes were full of curiosity, she still stayed in Mrs. Hu's arms and looked around. However, more of her eyes fell on Mu Guiying.
Mu Guiying smiled at Hu Xiuying when she saw herself; when Hu Xiuying saw Mu Guiying smile, she also smiled. The two smiled so opposite that Zhong Erniang and Hu Niangzi also smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was very friendly. Just as Zhong Erniang wanted to say something, she saw Mu Tianwang stand up and knew that the banquet was about to begin. So, she led Mrs. Hu to the front to sit down.
"Friends from afar..."
Mu Tianliang's loud voice suddenly sounded, and the noisy sound in the hall slowly lowered, looking at where the sound came from. Mu Tianwang, with a red face, stood upright at the wine table with a glass of wine in his hands. He immediately smiled when the guests looked at him.
"Thank you very much at dawn for coming to participate in the little girl's full moon wine. At dawn, I would like to respect all the people present here first.
As he spoke, Mu Tianwang had a glass of wine, and the guests also had a glass of wine. After that, Mu Tianwang did not sit down, but poured another glass of wine. Seeing this, the guests understood that Mu Tianwang had something else to say, so they continued to look at him.
"Friends, today's banquet is not just to celebrate the little girl's full moon. There are still two things to enjoy with you at dawn. First, Mu Kezhai got a treasure of the village a few days ago, and today I will open my eyes to you. People, please come up with the 'treasure of the village'.
"Yes, village owner."
When they heard that Mu Kezhai had a treasure of the town, the guests were very curious, so they all turned out of the door. Several people carried large rectangular wooden boxes and slowly walked into the hall and stopped in the middle. The leader first took a look at Mu Tianwang and saw him nod before opening the wooden box with several others and standing the contents on the spot. In an instant, there was a moment of ** among the guests.
"Isn't this just a piece..."
"Den the dragon wood?!!"
Hu Wenyong's stunned voice suddenly made the previous guest stop talking. Mu Guiying, who was lying in Zhong Erniang's arms, was funny in her heart. She really heard it. The second half of the guest's sentence just now must be 'a tree'. However, Mu Guiying was still a little surprised why his father showed this dragon tree. Isn't he afraid of causing trouble?
"Dragon wood, it is actually dragon wood. At dawn, you are going to be famous all over the world this time.
With the affirmation of the Hu official from the scholarly family, all the guests finally believed that a large piece of 'tree' in front of them was the legendary 'dragon wood'. Mu Tianwang is also very lucky. First, he had a daughter born with a good omen, and now he has such a treasure. It's so jealous. Therefore, the hall immediately became a little messy.
"Friends, I just said the first thing at dawn, and there is one more thing I haven't said."
Mu Tianwang saw the guests slowly calm down again, but many of them stared at Jianglongmu and turned their eyes. Mu Tianwang sneered in his heart, but his face remained calm. He walked to Zhong Erniang and stood still, and his loud voice sounded again.
"You all know that I, Mu Tianliang, am happy with my noble daughter and have to surrender the dragon wood. These are all things that make Tianliang proud. Therefore, Tianliang decided that this dragon tree will become her dowry when the little girl gets married..."
" hiss--
After Mu Tianwang finished speaking, the guests took a breath of cold at the same time and looked at Mu Guiying in Zhong Erniang's arms in surprise. In their hearts, they also have the same idea. Mu Tianwang is too kind to his daughter. It's not cheap for the man to use dragon wood as a dowry. Yes, my husband. Thinking of this, the guests with sons at home immediately looked refreshed and calculated in their hearts.
"At dawn, there are many good men who know that there are good men in the Song Dynasty. Of course, your friends' sons are not so bad, but there is only one beloved daughter at dawn. Therefore, Tianliang will hold a martial arts competition in 18 years, at Mu Kezhai, and the winner is my son-in-law of Mu Kezhai.
At this point, Mu Tianwang stopped. In fact, he didn't say anything, and everyone understood that as long as he became Mu Kezhai's son-in-law, the dragon tree would be his. In an instant, the guests felt that their son-in-law was Mu Kezhai's son-in-law, and the smile on their faces was bright. After the banquet began, they all found excuses to get close to Mu Tianwang, and Mu Tianwang did not refuse to come.
Mu Guiying looked at those people's mouths and father's smile, and praised her father's cleverness in her heart, which was a matter of counting. Not only did it take out the dragon wood openly, but also gave everyone a big 'bubble', but this 'bubble' can make those Xiaoxiao dare not easily steal the dragon wood. Thinking about it, Mu Guiying will always defeat all the people in the martial arts competition on TV, which Mu Tianwang has already calculated. If it hadn't been for Yang Zongbao halfway, Mu Tianwang's plan would have been perfect.
"At dawn, although this move can solve the immediate problems, do you really want to 'match martial arts to attract relatives' in the future?"
"That's natural. I, Mu Tianliang, can say it, and I can do it."
"But in the future, when there is a martial arts competition, someone will really win. Will you really use Jianglongmu as Gui Ying's dowry?"
"Why, Brother Hu, don't you believe it?" Mu Tianwang looked at Hu Wenyong's disbelief, smiled and whispered, "Tell you Brother Hu, the final winner of this 'wu competition' depends on my Guiying."
"What do you say?"
"Brother Hu doesn't know that my Gui Ying is going to worship the hermit immortal Lady Li Shan. Do you think she can let these reckless men win?"
As soon as Hu Wenyong heard this, he immediately pointed to Mu Tianwang and smiled, "Tianliang, you, you are too treacherous..."
