Chapter 3 A Critical Attack from My Mother
A hint of disbelief flashed across Chu Mu's eyes, but after a moment he realized that his mother must have misunderstood him.
Otherwise, mother would never treat Shen Zhao so harshly.
It was all because of that old rascal, Madam Liu, who was jumping around and deceiving her superiors and subordinates.
"Mother... Your daughter-in-law has something to ask..."
Before Chu Mu could finish speaking, he wanted to reveal Aunt Liu's true face in front of his mother.
But I heard an order: "Come here, let Shen remember this. I just gave her an order. If she dares to do it again, I will beat her severely."
Chu Mu looked straight at his mother.
The mother in front of him, with her sinister eyes, harsh voice and cold face, was completely different from the kind-hearted mother who always spoke gently in his impression.
It must be that Aunt Liu instigated it too much, and my mother was so angry that this happened. After all, even a clay figure has some temper.
A woman holding a rattan stick as thick as a finger approached Chu Mu step by step.
He raised the cane in his hand and was about to hit Chu Mu on the back.
“Wait!”
A voice that Chu Mu was so familiar with sounded from behind him. This deep and imposing voice was his.
When Shen Zhao passed by Chu Mu, he glanced at himself with a complicated expression.
She really hoped that Chu Mu could also experience the pain of this cane, which was so painful that it went deep into the bones.
But she didn't want her body to be whipped again. She was afraid that when the two of them switched back, her body would not be able to bear it.
Following Chu Mu's previous tone and approach, he spoke:
"My son pays respects to my mother. I wonder what this Shen has done to make you so angry. I hope you will calm down and not get yourself hurt. I will always be there for you."
After saying that, he looked at Chu Mu with a sour face.
She is now Chu Mubenmu.
Chu Mu must have suffered the torture she had to endure every day, and this was just the beginning.
This is what Chu Mu did whenever she had conflicts with the old lady in the past.
Yes! He didn't distinguish right from wrong, just listened to his mother's orders, and punished her ruthlessly and at will.
The old lady regained her usual kind and gentle face, speaking softly, "Mrs. Shen has always been arrogant and domineering. This early in the morning, before I even got up, she barged in, ignoring the servants' attempts to stop her, and yelled at me, her mother-in-law. May the Buddha have mercy on us! How could our Chu family covet such a disrespectful daughter-in-law?"
As she spoke, the old lady turned the Buddhist beads in her hand and looked at the astonished "Chen Zhao" with a sad face.
Chu Mu found it hard to believe that these were the words his mother said.
Mother, this is...
Or maybe my mother didn't send Aunt Liu to call Chen Zhao to serve her at all, and it was Aunt Liu who deceived her superiors and subordinates.
I called Shen Zhao here without telling my mother.
That's why his mother got angry when he came in just now!
But... the first thing he said when he came in just now was that his mother was saying that he was arrogant and had kept her waiting for a long time.
But...if that's the case, mother is now confusing right and wrong!
Chen Zhao looked at Chu Mu's stunned expression and felt a little secretly happy.
How was it? Was it good? Was a critical hit from my mother good?
She knew the old woman's character very well, she had two different faces in front of people and behind their backs.
Before her Shen family fell into decline, the old woman treated her quite well, at least on the surface.
When her Shen family was driven out of Kyoto, the old woman's vicious side immediately revealed itself to her.
Shen Zhao put away her thoughts of watching the show, and she was about to start acting.
With a cold face that could kill people, he looked at "Chen Zhao" unhappily.
"Ms. Shen, I never thought you would be so stubborn and repeatedly contradict your mother. I thought you were a lady from an aristocratic family, well-versed in etiquette and familiar with the rules and regulations of women's virtues. But I didn't know you were born evil. Don't blame me for not considering the love between husband and wife.
Someone ask Madam to kneel in the ancestral hall and only stand up when she realizes her mistakes."
Chu Mu just felt that this scene was so familiar.
I feel even more wronged.
He had never felt so powerless even when facing an overwhelming force.
He wanted to make a few more arguments.
But I heard my mother cough softly:
"Mu'er, may Buddha have mercy on her. Shen is stubborn and won't admit her mistake anytime soon. If she kneels for too long, it might harm her health. Why not punish her for three days and three nights?"
Another three days and three nights passed. Aunt Liu said that her mother had also locked up Chen Zhao's wet nurse for three days and three nights.
I almost died.
Doesn’t the mother know that this can kill people?
Chen Zhao sneered in his heart. Don't think that the old woman is being kind. Every time Chu Mu punished her, he never set a time.
It was the old woman who always set a time for her, using the excuse of doing it for her own good.
You are not allowed to stand up until you kneel down.
She is not stupid. She just wants to admit her mistake. She just agrees with her mouth and kneels for a while before she stands up and says she is wrong.
Who can say anything? The penalty has already been taken.
But if a time was set, she had to kneel down, and her body was worn out day by day kneeling in the cold, damp ancestral hall where there was no sunlight all day long.
She spent nearly half a year in the ancestral hall.
"Okay, let's do as mother said and let Shen kneel for three days and three nights to temper her temper." Shen Zhao agreed. This was Chu Mu's usual answer.
She wanted him to personally experience the coldness of the ancestral hall and the servants' bullying.
But she will show up in due time, as she doesn't want her body to suffer in such a cold and damp ancestral hall.
The old lady looked at Chu Mu with satisfaction and said, "Mu'er, it's getting late. You should go to the morning court. Go quickly. Wait until mother lets Shen have breakfast before punishing her to kneel in the ancestral hall."
The old lady kindly urged "Chu Mu" to leave.
When Shen Zhao passed by Chu Mu, he smiled meaningfully.
What’s coming next is the highlight, my dear old man, you better be patient.
As soon as Shen Zhao left, the old lady's expression changed drastically.
"What are you still standing there for? Come over here and help me get dressed and wash myself."
Chu Mu couldn't believe what he heard and saw.
Didn’t mother tell him to eat first?
Chu Mu stood still. The old lady's face turned cold. "Shen, what's wrong with you today? First you hit Madam Liu, and now you're standing there like a wooden stake. Do you want me to "invite" you over?"
Chu Mu felt mixed emotions, wondering if his mother had misunderstood Shen Zhao too deeply.
That's why he behaves so abnormally.
It must be so.
He is Shen Zhao now. If he can respect and serve his mother well, he can do it.
Wouldn’t my mother be like this?
Chu Mu strode forward. A flicker of disgust flashed across the old lady's eyes. She said unhappily, "Look at what you look like! You stride with such a majestic air, how can you be a lady from a noble family? You are so vulgar! No wonder Mu'er hates you. Can't you learn from Miss Lin?"
Chu Mu paused. Although Chen Zhao had a carefree personality, she behaved like a daughter of a wealthy family.
And he never said he hated Shen Zhao.
Lin Jiaojiao's rules and etiquette are not even one ten-thousandth of Shen Zhao's. If Shen Zhao really wants to learn from Lin Jiaojiao, he will be laughed at by everyone.
"Yes, I've got that." Chu Mun agreed patiently. He wanted to change his mother's opinion of Shen Zhao.
Perhaps the mother did not dislike Chen Zhao, but was instigated by the cunning servants around her.
Coupled with Shen Zhao's bad temper now, this situation has led to today's situation.
It must be like this!
