Mu Qianjiao had not left her yard for three days. She asked the maids and servants around her to copy what the old lady asked her to do, and she just read the storybook peacefully.
When the maid brought her punishment copy to Gu Yunran, Gu Yunran casually flipped through it and took out a few books. There were notes of four or five people. She smiled as if she didn't notice anything, and asked someone to give some things to Mu Qianjiao as a reward.
"Sixiaojie hasn't recovered from her illness yet, so give these things to her so she can take good care of herself."
"yes."
The mother in charge took the things from the warehouse and delivered them to Mu Qianjiao.
After everyone left, Zhuye stamped her feet in anger: "Miss, this fourth lady let so many people help her copy your punishment to fool you. It's obvious that she doesn't take you seriously."
Gu Yunran didn't care, "Why get upset over such a small matter?"
If she kept fussing about everything, she didn't know how many years she could live.
What's more, Mu Qianjiao has been spoiled by Qin since she was a child. She has just taken over as the housekeeper. If she keeps holding on to this matter of Mu Qianjiao, not only will the eldest wife make a fuss about it and deliberately embarrass them, but it will also be really not worth it for her to be exhausted over such a small matter.
As long as Mu Qianjiao doesn't go too far, she will let her go.
Zhuye said, "Miss, I just feel that you have been wronged."
Ruizhu said, "Zhuye, Second Madam has her own ideas."
Zhuye didn't dwell on it anymore. She said, "Miss, I'll go make you some cakes."
"good."
Zhuye went to the kitchen and met Mu Qianjiao's personal maid on the corridor. She didn't know what they were doing in the garden, but the two maids got their feet covered in mud.
And when he saw the bamboo leaves, he acted sneaky.
Zhuye frowned, thought about it and called them out.
"What are you two doing? You're sneaking around like you're not going to show up in public."
"Nothing."
After saying this, the two of them lowered their heads and ran away in panic.
Zhuye frowned, finding it strange to see the two girls holding a handful of hay in their hands, but she didn't think much about it.
When the two girls returned to Mu Qianjiao's yard, they quickly handed the hay to Mu Qianjiao.
"Fourth Miss, we ran into Zhuye when we were coming back just now."
"So what..." Mu Qianjiao said calmly, "You just went to pick some grass, you didn't do anything bad."
"Yes, yes, Miss Fourth is right. We only picked a handful of grass."
"Okay, go down." Mu Qianjiao waved her hand impatiently.
She then ordered the maid to go to the embroidery room and get needle and thread.
…
Zhuye went to the kitchen to make osmanthus cake and peanut candy for Gu Yunran.
"Miss, please try and see if my servant's cooking skills have improved."
Zhuye placed the snacks in front of Gu Yunran to ask for credit. Gu Yunran pinched a piece of peanut candy and put it in his mouth: "Your craftsmanship has improved quite quickly. It tastes like my mother's now."
"Thank you for the compliment, Miss!"
At this time, the third and fifth young ladies came.
"Second sister-in-law." The voice of Fifth Miss Mu Qianyao came in before she entered the yard.
Gu Yunran was eating peanut candy. When she heard the voice, she knew that it was the Fifth Miss.
"Yaoyao." Gu Yunran reached out to hug the fifth young lady.
The fifth young lady was less than ten years old, but her height reached Gu Yunran's chest. She had a pink little face, which was round from eating so much, and her whole body looked like a ball.
Mu Qianyao sat in Gu Yunran's arms and kissed her on the face.
"Second sister-in-law, what are you eating? It smells so good?"
Gu Yunran pointed at the osmanthus cake and peanut crisps on the table: "Here, I knew you were coming, so I prepared some snacks for you."
"Wow! These are all my favorites. Thank you, second sister-in-law!"
The fifth young lady jumped out of Gu Yunran's arms and reached out to grab something to eat.
Zhuye reached out and slapped her little hand: "Fifth Miss, you have to wash your hands before eating."
"Sister Zhuye, let me eat one first." Miss Five stared at the osmanthus cake and peanut crisps with shining eyes.
"No, I'll get an upset stomach."
"oh."
Miss Five went to wash her hands reluctantly. While no one was paying attention, she secretly grabbed a piece of peanut crisps and put it into her mouth.
When Zhuye turned around, he saw that her mouth was bulging. She shook her head and smiled, but finally said nothing.
"Second sister-in-law, these are the clothes and shoes my mother made for the child."
The third lady, Mu Qianshuang, placed the things she brought on the table.
Gu Yunran picked up the finely crafted little dress and the tiger-head shoes and smiled, "Third Aunt, that's so thoughtful."
Mu Qianshuang blushed, "Mother didn't know whether my second sister-in-law gave birth to a boy or a girl, so she simply made clothes for both boys and girls. Mother said they would be needed sooner or later."
Gu Yunran: "Thank Third Aunt for me!"
Mu Qianshuang: "Hey, why bother thanking me? My mother said she made this for her grandchildren."
Gu Yunran's smile deepened. She ordered Ruizhu, "Go get my jade bracelet."
"yes."
Ruizhu turned and went in, taking out a pair of jade bracelets from her dressing box. Gu Yunran took one and gave it to Mu Qianshuang to wear: "This is a gift from my second sister-in-law."
"No, I can't have it." Mu Qianshuang was unwilling to accept it, but Gu Yunran insisted that she take it with her: "This is a little gift from me, just like how Third Aunt loves my children. If you don't accept it, it would be inappropriate."
Mu Qianshuang lowered her head and bit her lip: "Thank you, Second Sister-in-law!"
When Mu Qianyao came back, Gu Yunran gave her another jade bracelet to wear. She shook her head and said, "Second sister-in-law, wait until Yaoyao finishes eating these delicious foods before you bring it back."
