Chapter 10 I'm right, be filial to your hypocritical mother
The old woman gave Chu Mu a displeased look.
"Madam, are you pretending to be crazy? Madam, you spend more than half of the year kneeling here. Is it possible that others in the Chu Family Ancestral Hall don't know Madam, but you don't know her?"
The old woman kicked the door open rudely, pushed Chu Mu in, and slammed the door shut.
He shouted outside, "The general and the old lady have ordered that you must not get up before you kneel for three days and three nights. During this period, I will ensure that you will not starve to death. Please accept the punishment sincerely.
I will come to check on you from time to time. If I find that Madam dares to disobey, I will report the truth to the General and Madam. Then Madam will suffer even more."
After saying that, Chu Mu heard the sound of the old woman humming a little tune and walking away.
As soon as the door was closed, the small room was immediately plunged into darkness.
It wasn't pitch black, I could still see things.
There were no windows around the walls, and the whole cabin was dark, damp and cold.
Apart from an altar in the middle with an anonymous tablet on it, there was nothing else.
Chu Mu looked at the ground and saw that there was not even a mat. Were they going to make him kneel on the floor?
And the old woman said that she was punished to kneel in this ancestral hall for more than half of the year.
How did she spend those days?
And why didn't he know when such a small ancestral hall appeared in his mansion?
Who is this nameless tablet dedicated to?
After a while, Chu Mu felt his legs and feet getting cold and his body was chilled.
He didn't kneel, he just stood. If he had really knelt, he would probably feel cold in his legs and feet.
Chu Mu rubbed his arms and walked back and forth in the ancestral hall.
"Have you always been punished here? Why didn't you tell me?"
Chu Mu muttered to himself.
The door was suddenly opened from the outside.
The visitor opened his mouth and said, "Never has this word been used well, huh!"
The person who came in was Shen Zhao, and she replied to Chu Mu in a mocking tone.
"When has the general ever taken anything I said to heart, or believed it? What difference does it make whether I say it or not?"
Shen Zhao took off his cloak and put it on Chu Mu.
There was a strange flash in Chu Mu's eyes. She still cared about him.
Chen Zhao understood the emotions in Chu Mu's eyes and rolled his eyes at Chu Mu. "Don't get me wrong, I'm just afraid that you'll hurt my body."
"How's your morning, General? Hmm?"
Chu Mu suddenly grabbed Shen Zhao's hand and said, "It's rare for him to speak.
"I'm sorry, Zhao, I made you feel wronged."
Chen Zhao felt sad when he heard this. Before they got married, Chu Mu called her Ah Zhao.
For many years, she had never heard him call her Ah Zhao.
But it's rare to hear "I'm sorry" from Chu Mu's mouth.
"But Ah Zhao's mother didn't treat you like this intentionally. She was instigated by Diao Nu. Don't worry, during the period when you and I exchange bodies, I will definitely make my mother change her opinion of you..."
Chen Zhao's face darkened instantly. It felt like he had suffered all this morning in vain, and she had been moved in vain.
“Pah…”
Shen Zhao knocked Chu Mu's hand down.
It was so heartbreaking when I saw that my fair hands were red and swollen.
She was angry with Chu Mu.
Only then can I not help but take action.
But the person she wanted to hit was Chu Mu instead of herself. She gritted her teeth and slapped herself.
This made her feel more balanced, but it really hurt.
She grimaced in pain.
"I'll make you stupid, I'll make you blind."
Turning to Chu Mu, he said, "Then please be more filial to your mother, General, and let her change her opinion of you. Come on, follow me to have breakfast."
There was no point in her saying more. It would only make Chu Mu truly understand what kind of life she was living and how her mother was hypocritical.
Only then can he see the true faces of these monsters in the mansion. This matter cannot be rushed, and neither can she.
After all, she is happy and at ease knowing that Chu Mu is suffering now.
Why not use Chu Mu's identity to plan for his father and brother?
Chu Mu sighed. A Zhao had a deep misunderstanding of his mother, and he must change their views of each other.
Watching Shen Zhao hesitate for a moment.
"How do you know I haven't eaten yet? And do you know who this ancestral hall is dedicated to?" Chu Mu couldn't help but ask.
Shen Zhao leaned against the door frame and glanced at Chu Mu.
He was wearing a cloak that was too big, and the dark brown cloak wrapped him tightly.
She is not short, and is even considered tall among women.
She was born bright and flamboyant, but when she looked at herself from Chu Mu's perspective, she found that her edges had been smoothed out by life.
The brightness and vigor of her delicate face were long gone, replaced by a hint of melancholy and decadence.
The messy hair, pale face, and eyes with clear and stupid look give her the image of a pure and masochistic little white flower.
This is not her, and it shouldn't be her. She replied to Chu Mu irritably:
"Because I never had a hot breakfast every day, if I said that I, as the wife of the general's mansion, was often hungry, you probably wouldn't believe it. After all, I am in charge of everyone's eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. Don't you think it's ridiculous?
I don't know who this ancestral hall enshrines, but I can tell you one thing for sure: this person must have a grudge against your mother, because your mother is extremely cruel to this person. This nameless tablet has been replaced three times, and each time it was smashed to pieces by your mother, who is devoted to Buddhism. Let's go now."
Shen Zhao took the lead and left.
Chu Mu followed closely behind. His mother was a kind-hearted person and would never harbor ill will towards others for no reason. There must be some hidden secret that Shen Zhao didn't know.
He didn't believe that his mother would do such a wicked thing as smashing someone's tablet.
The two of them were walking silently, one in front and the other behind, when they happened to meet a woman who came to deliver food.
When the old woman saw Chen Zhao, she quickly covered the things in the basket with a blue cloth, and her eyes flashed with guilt.
He was extremely respectful and saluted politely: "This old servant greets the general."
Then he saw Chu Mu behind Chen Zhao: "The general's wife is still being punished. Where does the general want her to go? She hasn't knelt for enough time yet. If the old lady knew..."
Shen Zhao was already feeling depressed, and this old woman often teased her.
Since she couldn't hit Chu Mu, she couldn't hit the old woman either, so she kicked the old woman who was blocking her way.
He glanced at the old woman unhappily.
"Get lost! Do you, a servant, need to interfere in my affairs? She is the wife of the general. Take away your disrespectful look. If you do it again, get out of the general's house."
The old woman cried out "Ouch" and looked at the general in confusion.
The general has always been kind to the people in his mansion and has never punished them.
What's wrong with the general today? Why did he kick her for no reason?
And what is the general saying? The general never cares about his wife.
Could it be that the general has been bewitched by the little vixen Shen again? No, she must go back and tell the old lady.
If Shen turned over, the first person she would not let go would be her. Thinking of the methods she had secretly used to torture Shen, the old woman could not help but shudder.
At this moment, the basket the old woman was carrying tilted, and the things inside rolled out.
The old woman hurried to pick it up, but it was too late. The thing rolled to Shen Zhao's feet.
After you provide the great god cat to eat raw pickled body swap, the general tore his white moonlight
