The temperature in the living room continued to drop, and no one dared to say a word. When everyone came to their senses, a subtle expression appeared on their faces, and Mu Qingyi's expression was the most obvious.
They were gloating, as if they thought Yang Shushu was doomed.
Yang Shushu was calm, although she was also nervous. She didn't think the old man could do anything to her. Could he really kill her?
At most, she would be kicked out, which would just satisfy her.
But in the end, Old Master Mu said nothing. He just drooped his eyelids again and waved his hand: "Go, don't go out these few days, and think things through before you do anything in the future."
The voice was not loud, but very majestic, like a warning.
Yang Shushu lowered her eyes, turned and walked out of the living room. Only after she left the small courtyard of the main house did she breathe a sigh of relief. She turned around and walked towards the place where she had lost her original residence in her memory.
Yang Shushu's original residence was a little far from the main house. It took Yang Shushu nearly twenty minutes to find it. It was an exquisite two-story building. The house was not big and there was no yard around it. It was just surrounded by some flowers, plants and dwarf trees. From a distance, this small white house exuded a warm and romantic atmosphere, but when you got closer, you could see that the warmth of this house only belonged to the past.
The white paint on the outside of the house was already mottled, and the flowers, plants and trees around it had no one to take care of them, appearing a bit messy. Some had even climbed up the outer wall of the house. The stone-paved path had weeds struggling out from the cracks in the stone slabs. At this moment, there was a person sitting in front of the main entrance of the house basking in the sun. Yang Shushu flipped through the memories of her previous life and remembered who that person was.
She is the servant sent by the Mu family to take care of Yang Shushu, the young lady. However, this servant usually lives more like a young lady than Yang Shushu does. Sometimes, she even brings her a portion of breakfast when Yang Shushu prepares it herself. The basic hygiene here is also taken care of by Yang Shushu herself. At most, when Mu Shicang comes over, this servant will show off and act coquettishly in front of Mu Shicang, just like a maid in a wealthy family in ancient times.
At this time, the young servant sitting at the door basking in the sun saw Yang Shushu, but did not stand up. He just smiled with a fake smile: "Oh, Madam, you are back."
Yang Shushu walked over and stood in front of her, looking down at the woman with her back to the sun. In fact, she was not bad looking and had some looks. No wonder she was restless and always wanted to climb into her boss's bed. It was just that she was unlucky. The Yang Shushu who was bullied by her was gone. There was only a piece of iron lump here. She was afraid that her teeth would fall out.
The maid couldn't see her expression because of the sunlight behind her, but she intuitively felt that Yang Shushu was different today, but she couldn't put her finger on what was different. So she didn't feel any crisis and still treated Yang Shushu with her usual attitude.
"Madam, you haven't been home these few days, and the house is a little messy. Please clean it up later. I heard that the young master will be back today. Be careful that he will scold you for being useless again."
Yang Shushu tilted her head to look at her and smiled: "Chun Xiao, right?"
She asked for the maid's name. The maid was stunned by her smile. Just as she was about to ask her what she meant, the chair under her was suddenly kicked away. She sat down on the ground. The marble floor was extremely hard, and it hurt the base of her tail so much that she almost fainted.
"You...what are you doing?" She held her lower back with a resentful look on her face.
Yang Shushu looked down at her condescendingly: "In front of the Mu family, I am an outsider, but in front of you, I am the master. If you want to eat this bowl of rice, do your job well. If not, get out immediately. I still have the power to replace the servants or not use them anymore."
Yang Shushu looked at Chunxiao expressionlessly with that soft face that had made anyone want to bully her. Chunxiao fell to the ground and began to feel a little scared for some reason, but she refused to accept it. In her eyes, Yang Shushu was no different from her. They were both dogs raised by the Mu family. Why did she act so superior to her?
But just when her face was about to twist into that of a horrifying vicious woman, it suddenly turned into a look of aggrieved panic. Yang Shushu was stunned for a moment and thought to herself: What kind of magical magic is this?
And just then, she heard Mu Shicang's voice: "What's going on?"
Yang Shushu turned around, and Chun Xiao was sitting on the ground crying. She held her waist with one hand and crawled forward twice with the other hand, as if she had half of her body paralyzed. "Master."
Mu Shicang walked forward, glanced down at Chunxiao, then turned to look at Yang Shushu: "What's going on?"
Yang Shushu crossed her arms and nodded at Chunxiao with her chin, not smiling. "Don't ask me yet. This beautiful lady seems to have something to say to you."
Looking at her smile, Mu Shicang was stunned again. Yang Shushu never smiled like this before. Her smile always revealed timidity and inferiority, but now her smile was as bright as light and as sharp as a knife.
Feeling Mu Shicang's gaze on her, Yang Shushu secretly nervous. Was her true nature revealed again?
Fortunately, Mu Shicang only looked for a while and then looked at Chunxiao who was sitting on the ground pitifully.
"you say."
Chun Xiao finally got her chance. She pinched herself secretly to make her tears flow more freely before she choked out, "Young Madam, maybe it's because I was lazy and not working, plus Old Master was in a bad mood just now. When he saw me sitting here, he...he kicked the chair. Or...maybe Young Madam didn't mean it."
Yang Shushu looked at Chunxiao's expression and couldn't help but burst out laughing. The two of them looked at her at the same time. She waved her hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay, you continue."
After hearing what she said, Chunxiao couldn't go on anymore. It would make her look like a clown on the stage, like a fool.
Mu Shicang was no fool either. He turned around and looked at Yang Shushu for a while, then said to Chunxiao, "You should go and rest first."
After saying that, he said to Yang Shushu, "Follow me," and went into the house first.
Yang Shushu waited until Mu Shicang entered the house before she squatted down and said to Chunxiao with a smile, "Beautiful girl, do you usually watch a lot of dramas and online novels about palace fighting and family feuds? Haha... My acting skills are a bit lacking, and need to be improved. Come on."
After saying that, he patted Chunxiao's cheek, stood up and followed her into the house. No one noticed that Chunxiao was holding a chair leg with her hand, and her nails were almost embedded in the wood.
…………………………
Yang Shushu followed Mu Shicang into the house. The decoration of this small house was not new, and some things felt a bit old, but the overall decoration still looked very exquisite and noble, and exuded a sense of home warmth. She guessed that the family that lived here must have been a very warm family, but the Mu family members she saw just now did not seem to have such tastes.
and--
Neither she nor Yang Shushu in the past had ever seen Mu Shicang's parents, and no one in the Mu residence had ever mentioned them.
It's like it's a taboo that can't be spoken out.
