promise you

Cypress Alley.

Mu Cheng feels that he has been really lucky recently. Originally, few people came to the breakfast shop at home for a whole day, but now he just put it out for a while in the morning, and he can slowly sell out two barrels of wontons.If it's just that, it's fine, after all, their Mu's wonton tastes really good.But if you can pick up pieces of silver when you go out all day, it would be unusual. Look, another piece of silver appeared under his feet.

Mu Cheng bent down to pick up the broken silver, looked around very vigilantly, but found no trace of anyone.Did someone really accidentally throw this money away?

It was getting late, and now it was spring, and although the sun above his head was not enough to make people sweat profusely, it was still extremely glaring, so he had better go home early and prepare something for his grandma for lunch.

The other corner of Baishu Hutong is Mu Cheng's home. He opened the gate, put down the things on the stall, and shouted inside: "Grandma, I'm back! Today's things are sold out again, and I made a lot of money." Yinzi, I brought back a roast chicken, come out quickly."

"You kid, you have so much food at home, you can just eat some casually, why do you buy it again?" Grandma Mu scolded him as she staggered out, "It's hard to earn some money, and you have to pay for it." Save it for you to marry a wife."

"Grandma, I have enough money. I will definitely earn money to marry a wife. Don't worry." Mu Cheng quickly ran a few steps, helped Grandma Mu sit on the stone bench in the courtyard, and placed the roast chicken on the stone bench. table, said, "Grandma, you eat first, I'll cook."

The freshly baked roast chicken exudes a rich and attractive aroma. Grandma Mu is the best one. Looking at the roast chicken in front of her eyes, she couldn't help swallowing.But she held back in the end, and waited until her grandson came to eat before eating. Look at Mu Cheng, a young man in his 20s who is so skinny that he is useless as a grandma.

When Mu Cheng cooked the food and brought it over, he found that the roast chicken on the table hadn't been touched. He purposely said with a straight face, "Grandma, why are you so disobedient? Didn't I tell you to eat first?"

"Let's eat together, grandma will see that you eat deliciously." Grandma Mu looked at him lovingly, and put a big chicken leg into his bowl, "Cheng Er, eat quickly."

After lunch, Mu Cheng helped Grandma Mu walk around the yard again, and then took her into the house to rest.As for him not being able to rest, although the business these days is not bad, plus whether he picks up some money, it is reasonable to say that his money should be very loose, but he promised his parents that he must let grandma live a good life. These days, these silvers are far from enough.

However, it is obviously inappropriate to sell breakfast in the afternoon. He has traveled to many places in the past few days, trying to find a job.It is reasonable to say that it is not too difficult for a person like Mu Cheng to find a hard job, but he can't go all morning and can only go to work after noon, so he has not found a suitable one.

Even so, Mu Cheng still goes out to look for it every day. Good things don't happen every day, but what if he bumps into him?

After Mu Cheng left, Yun Wan appeared at his home.The hidden guards had already come to investigate and found that Mu Cheng was indeed the Mu family's biological child, but Yunwan always felt that something was wrong, so she finally couldn't help but came to the Mu family and decided to ask the old lady Mu herself.I believe that no one knows Mu Cheng's life experience better than her.

Yun Wan could have walked directly into the Mu family's courtyard quietly, but this might scare the elderly Mrs. Mu, so she stood outside and knocked on the door.No family visits relatives and friends, and it will not attract other people's attention.

Mrs. Mu was old, so she walked slowly. Yunwan knocked on the door for a long time before she came out and opened it.

"Who is the girl—?" Mrs. Mu asked directly after inviting Yun Wan to her home.Judging by Yunwan's attire, she didn't look like anyone they could know, so they asked directly.

Yun Wan didn't think about the stereotypes, and said straight to the point: "Mrs. Mu, I have only one purpose here, and that is to ask about Mu Cheng's life experience. Is he a biological child of the Mu family?"

"..." Mrs. Mu was silent for a while. In fact, her silence only meant one thing. Thinking of this, she also told the truth, "Cheng'er is indeed not a child of the Mu family. Back then, my The daughter-in-law had a difficult labor when she gave birth, and the child died at birth. At this time, an abandoned baby appeared at the door of the Mu family. Cheng'er and I took the child back and treated it as a child of our Mu family... ...Later, Cheng'er's father also left early, and only I knew the purpose."

This is also why the secret guards investigate, and Mu Cheng is a child of the Mu family.Because the Mu family did appear and gave birth to a child 21 years ago, and Mu Cheng happened to appear at that time, everyone thought that Mu Cheng was the child of the Mu family.

But just in case, Yunwan asked again: "Madam Mu, do you still remember what was on Mu Cheng back then?"

"Did the girl find the wrong person? When Cheng'er was thrown at my door, she had nothing on her but a piece of cotton cloth." Mrs. Mu looked at Yun Wan with a frown, thinking that she might have found the wrong person. People, because Yunwan seems to be either rich or expensive, if Mu Cheng really has something to do with her, he should have had a token on him back then.

In fact, nothing can prove Mu Cheng's identity. After all, he is a child who came out of the palace. If there is really any token on him, someone must have discovered it long ago. Mu Cheng will definitely not live like he is now. Carefree.

"There is no mistake, Mu Cheng should be the person we are looking for." Yun Wan confirmed again, "Mrs. Mu, is there a red circular birthmark on Mu Cheng's left waist?"

Mrs. Mu nodded and said, "Cheng'er does have a red birthmark on his waist. Are you Cheng'er's younger sister? Why did your family throw Cheng'er away?"

"...I'm not Mu Cheng's younger sister, but I do have something to do with him." Yun Wan pursed her lips and said, "I had no choice but to send him away. I hope Mrs. Mu can understand." Although very helpless, it is indeed unfair to Mu Cheng. With the same background, Chu Hui is extremely noble, but Mu Cheng can only live humblely and hard in a corner of the capital.

Now that the matter has come to an end, Mrs. Mu can't say anything more, she asked: "Are you here today because you want to admit Cheng'er back?"

"This...now is really not the time. I hope Mrs. Mu can understand. When the time is right, we will definitely take Mu Cheng back as soon as possible." It's not up to Yun Wan to decide, everything depends on Chu Hui's will.

"What?" Mrs. Mu was angry, "You don't want to recognize Cheng'er, what's the point of coming to him now? Are you playing tricks on him?"

"Of course not." Yun Wan quickly denied that neither she nor Yun Wan meant to play Mu Cheng at all. She came here now, just hoping to save Mu Cheng from having such a hard life. "My...and Mu Cheng's family are still unable to bring him back, but I don't want to see him working hard to survive every day. I hope that I can give him some money first and send him to the academy to study and read. .”

"Okay, so it turns out that you refused to recognize Hui Cheng'er because he can't read or write, and you think he's ashamed?" Mrs. Mu became even more angry, she picked up her crutches and said, "Go, get out! We The Mu family doesn't welcome you, Cheng'er is a child of our Mu family, get out!"

Mrs. Mu obviously just wanted to drive her away. Yunwan was not afraid that she would hit her, but because she was too excited and then flashed her waist, so she had to back away, saying, "Mrs. Mu, I hope Don't get me wrong, no one will despise Mu Cheng, and no one has the right to despise him, everything I do is not compensation, but because of a debt, which he deserves..."

Leaving Baishu Alley, Yunwan walked back with a dazed look on her face.But on the way, he was pulled over by someone and held in his arms.

Being able to perceive the existence of Chu Hui has almost become Yunwan's instinct, and she seems to have all the strength taken away from her body at this time, pressing herself on Chu Hui, saying: "Princess, you are right. , until I can explain everything clearly, everything I have done is nothing more than a waste of effort." No wonder Mrs. Mu was so angry, she never considered this issue from Mu Cheng's perspective.

Chu Hui tightened her hands, and hugged Yunwan even tighter. She knew that Yunwan was for herself. The attention she paid to Mu Cheng these days was because of herself, and today's bumping into a wall was also because of herself. What she was afraid of was that she would I was hurt, so I stepped on all the traps first, it was silly, but it made people feel extremely distressed.

"Awan, you don't have to do so much for me. I'm a heartless person. Even if Mu Cheng doesn't want to recognize me as a sister after the matter is over, I won't feel too much." She tried her best Raising the corners of her lips, she said, "But you are different. As long as I see you being wronged, I will feel very distressed, very distressed, very distressed. If you don't want me to feel distressed every day, then don't wrong yourself like this. In the future, If Mu Cheng is not willing to forgive me or admit me, it’s fine for me to kneel down and admit my mistakes, but you can’t.” Because in my heart, you are the most important one. Bi Niang... an existence more important than everyone else.

The author has something to say: Some people may not understand it. Let me explain. At first, Chu Hui thought that she and Chu Siyuan were born by the same mother (the former queen), but later she realized that it was not. At the beginning, Chu Anxiang gave birth to dragon and phoenix twins. A daughter can be given to the queen to be raised, but a son who is given to someone else to be raised will definitely be killed, so without the emperor's knowledge, Mu Cheng was sent out, all of whom are the emperor's children
