Qinghe Pastoral

He drove the carriage all the way to the place Wang Gui said, where there was a white cloud, but there was indeed a lonely tomb. There was no birth date on the tombstone, only the date of burial.

Lin Mu put his hand on the tombstone tremblingly, and stroked it lightly, as if he was stroking his poor brother who died young.

"It's true, it's true."

Lin Mu murmured, but he was thinking in his heart: brother, soon, brother will take you back, and won't let you be alone here.

Bai Junyan was also very moved. His Bai family has gone through ups and downs in his life. In the end, only himself and his eldest nephew were left. Fortunately, he found his only relative in this world.

In the early morning of the second day, Lin Mu entered the Mu Mansion here, accompanied by Ji Ruixiu and Bai Junyan, with the Heli Letter and dowry list he wrote yesterday.

When the gatekeeper saw Lin Mu, his eyes were indescribably strange. The story of the Mu family had been spread throughout Dongzhou City. He didn't care what others thought or commented on him, and naturally he wouldn't even pay attention to the gatekeeper.

Last night there was a heavier snowfall in the evening, and when I woke up in the morning, the snow had already accumulated thicker.

The Mu Mansion was as grand and luxurious as before, but it was so quiet that no one was seen along the way.

After yesterday, whether Mukang's official position can be kept or not depends on the Holy Spirit, and the Chief Justice can make a decision, but before the order comes down, Mukang can't go to the government office for the time being.

And with Mu Kang's temperament, if such a big thing happened, he just wished he would never go out, right?So at the moment, he is at home.

In Mukang's courtyard, a few red plum trees are more beautiful in the white snow, but it can be matched with the current situation of Mufu, but it is indescribably abrupt and ironic.

Uncle Fu was not surprised when he saw several people coming, and even made a respectful salute.

"Fu Bo, is Master Mu there? I have something to tell him."

"Master Chen, no matter what, you have his blood on your body, he is your biological father, and you don't even call your father anymore!"

? ”

Fu Bo is Mu Kang's confidant, he has been in charge of Mu Mansion for more than ten years, even though he is a slave, he is somewhat dignified.Lin Mu watched Fu Bo act like an elder, amused in his heart, but didn't bother to tell him apart.

"I just want to ask you if he's here. If he's not here, I'll go directly to collect the land, the village, and the shop."

Seeing Lin Mu's decisive look, Fu Bo had no choice but to lead him to Mu Kang's bedroom.

Mu Kang suffered quite a blow yesterday, and sat kneeling on the ground for a long time, he developed a fever at night, and now he is being served by his aunt in the house, resting in the dormitory.

When Lin Mu arrived, the aunt was waiting for Mu Kang to take medicine. When Mu Kang saw the people coming, he seemed to have guessed it a long time ago. He was not surprised at all. He just waved his hand and let the aunt back out.

No one spoke. The atmosphere lasted for a quarter of an hour. Mu Kang looked at Lin Mu's face and laughed out loud.

"As expected of the son of my Mukang, he is tolerant and intelligent, but it is in vain for me to pretend to be intelligent. You all know this well, but I am the only one who was kept in the dark."

Seeing the irony on Mu Kang's sickly face, I don't know if it's a compliment or a sarcasm, but it doesn't matter to Lin Mu.

"You didn't come here today to see me. Tell me, why?"

Yesterday's Lin Mu was so determined, Mu Kang even thought, if Bai Junyu's death had not been wronged, perhaps, in this life, he would never know that his second son did not die at all.

"Two things. First, it is for my mother's dowry. Second, I will reconcile with you on my mother's behalf. From now on, the Mu family and the Bai family will have nothing to do with each other."

Lin Mu's words fell, and Mu Kang froze for a moment. He had thought of the first thing, but the second thing was beyond his expectation.

"What did you say? You're crazy, your mother has been buried in the earth for twelve years, you are really rebellious, cough cough..."

Mu Kang was obviously too excited and coughed continuously, Fu Bo hurriedly brought water.

"Master, you are blood relatives, how can you be so heartless?"

Seeing Mu Kang's appearance, Uncle Fu couldn't help but question him.

"Blood relatives? When the Bai family was in trouble, did he think about blood relatives? When he welcomed Wang Hui into the door, did he think about blood relatives? When he abandoned my brother, did he think about blood relatives? In this world, he has the least Quanquan and I mention blood relatives. Uncle Fu, I think you are older, but how can the servants interrupt the master's speech?"

Recently, all kinds of things about Lin Mu have shown that his temperament is not as innocent and harmless as his appearance. Although Uncle Fu couldn't get off the stage at Lin Mu's words, he had nothing to refute, so he had to stand beside Mu Kang.

"I know you hate me and resent me, but your mother is the wife I'm married to, how could you do such a thing on your own? It's so rare for a son to reconcile his dead mother. How do you stop the rumors?"

"Rumors, I, Lin Mu, are not afraid of rumors. Today, my mother's tablet will be taken away from the Mu family. I can do it if I can say it."

"Your mother really loves me, if she knows you are like this, how can she rest in peace under the Nine Springs?"

Seeing that Mu Kang dared to block him with such words, Lin Mu was even angrier.

"She can't rest in peace, that's why she asked me to meet my uncle again to avenge her grievances. My uncle said that my mother is also decisive. If he knows that she married a hypocrite and a heartless person, even if she alive, will do the same as I do now

decide 0,,

Without giving Mu Kang a chance to speak, Lin Mu opened the box again, and took out the dowry list and contract from that year.

"This is my mother's dowry. These are the money books from the fertile land, shop and Zhuangzi? These are all indispensable."

"This. Why is it in your hands?"

After Bai Junyu's death, they searched Bai Junyu's house, but couldn't find them. Now, they are intact, but they are all in Lin Mu's hands.

"The dowry list was given to Mrs. Zhou by my grandfather, and the deed was entrusted to Mrs. Zhou by my mother when she was dying. Unexpectedly, my mother actually doesn't believe you. Do you think that in the end, she still loves you like the first time I saw you? Do you believe me? My mother is not a fool, she is just kind, she has a heart that is more transparent than anyone else, and she can feel who really loves her and is worthy of her entrustment."

"The dowry, it's not a matter of a day or two to pack it out."

Over the years, the management of the mansion, his human relations, and Mu Xianhua's human relations are all money like water. Both he and Wang Hui are from poor families, and the accounts are filled by the dowry of the Bai family. How is it possible to be exact?

"I also know that for my mother's dowry, no matter how much the fields, shops, and Zhuangzi's annual harvests have been in these years, you have also used a lot of gold and silver jewelry, silk forgings, right?"

After all, this is a very disgraceful thing, Mu Kang didn't make a sound for a moment, he didn't know whether to be happy or resentful that he had such a powerful son.

"Ming people don't talk dark words. If you sign this and Li Shu, I will have to settle with you all the money from various harvests over the years, and I don't want to care about the dowry you used, but if you still like this If you want to delay playing Tai Chi with me, I will take this dowry list and let the people in Dongzhou see what kind of person their Zhoufu Lord is. Moreover, Dayu used the dowry, sin It's not too expensive. I'm in a hurry to leave here, and I really don't want to waste time with you, so you should think it through yourself."

Lin Mu grasped Mu Kang's lifeline one by one. Although Mu Kang was anxious, there was nothing he could do. Although the person in front of him was his own son, he had no affection for him, and was even full of hatred.

As soon as Wang Hui's incident came out, the Mu family's official career was hopeless, but they still had to live, so they would not be afraid of running out of firewood if they kept the green hills.

"Okay, okay, it seems that you have lost even a trace of friendship with me, and that's the case, so I signed it."

Lin Mu handed He Lishu to Uncle Fu, and Uncle Fu also knew that there was no room for transfer to the garden, so he had to study ink and helped Mu Kang up

Mu Kang stared at Zhang Zhang and Li Shu in a daze for a long time, and remembered how he saw Bai Junyu for the first time more than 20 years ago. In this life, after all, they were all wrong.

Sighing, he wrote his name on it. Mu Kang couldn't stand for a while, Uncle Fu hurriedly helped him to the bed and put him on the bed. Lin Mu finally softened his face while holding the book and leaving.

"I will collect the land property, shop, and Zhuangzi one by one, and I don't want to worry about the rest. It's just my mother's personal jewelry, can I still keep it?"

After not seeing Mu Kang's voice for a while, Lin Mu knew what it meant. He was a selfish person. Even in these years, whether he would treat Bai Junyu sincerely for a moment, Lin Mu didn't dare to think about it, so what? Can delusional he will leave those things.

"Okay, I will take away my mother's memorial tablet. From now on, the Mu family and the Bai family will have nothing to do with each other."

After Lin Mu finished speaking, he got up and left without waiting for Mu Kang to say anything more. Before he stepped out of the house, he heard Mu Kang's voice calling him, Lin Mu paused, and finally did not look back.

Mu Xianshang was a product of wishful thinking, while Lin Mu grew up with the love of his parents. The fire made Mu Xianchen go, but Lin Mu was born.For the past ten years, he has been Lin Mu, and for the rest of his life, on the road to Huangquan, he will only be Lin Mu.

Mu Kang looked at the young man who left without stopping, recalling the first time he called his father, he finally shed tears.Some mistakes, one mistake is a lifetime, some make up but can't make up.

He took out a well-packed cloth bag from his arms, and inside was a piece of fine jade pendant, which was Bai Junyu's favorite and the only one he kept with him.In the future, even the memorial tablet will not be found, so let him keep the only thing in his mind.

Lin Mu and the others went straight to the ancestral hall, took down Bai Junyu's memorial tablet, and then went to "Qinya Garden". The courtyard is now empty again, except for the white snow all over the ground, it is actually the same as when he just returned to Mufu exactly the same.

After staying for a while, Lin Mu looked at the tablet in his hand, and finally smiled in relief.After today, life, old age, sickness and death, this place has nothing to do with him, and he will never set foot here again.
