The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Chapter 2446 - 25: Tattling

Mu Huarong sat on the chair for a long time without speaking.

Nanny Lin always knew that this young lady had a ruthless heart; her silence at this moment didn’t necessarily mean she was disagreeing.

Sure enough, she heard her ask again, "Do you have a good place?"

Nanny Lin quickly put on a smile, "Yes, of course. I have a sister; her hometown is in the mountains of Yunchuan. Some days ago, she told me her elder brother wrote to ask for money to buy a wife for her nephew, but since the family is poor, they reached out to my sister for silver. That sister is very close to me; she wouldn’t dare not listen to the young lady."

"Not bad, it’s a good place." Mu Huarong’s face revealed a smile upon hearing this. "No need for her to buy; I’ll gift her."

The maid beside her felt a chill down her spine upon hearing this. Sending her own sister to a maid’s nephew? Is that really okay? A trace of unwillingness flashed through her heart.

"Shall I proceed with the arrangements?" Nanny Lin asked with a smile.

"Don’t tell your old sister yet," Mu Huarong waved, "First find someone to lure Mu Huaen out of Yushu Alley before making a move. Yushu Alley is Ye Haoyang’s territory; outsiders aren’t allowed easily."

"Leave it to me; I promise to handle it well."

"Very good, do it well, and there will be a reward. If you mess it up, watch your back."

"Yes, yes!!"

After giving the instructions, Mu Huarong returned to the Mu Residence with the maid.

Mu Niancheng saw her and treated it as if he hadn’t, and Mu Huarong snorted coldly; wait until you can no longer see your sister, let’s see how you ignore me then.

"Did you go to Prince An’s Mansion again?" Initially thinking Mu Niancheng wouldn’t speak to her, who knew he would stop her.

"What if I did?"

"Can you be a little more decent?" Mu Niancheng couldn’t stand her arrogant attitude, "Don’t forget, you’re not yet married to him, and Prince An’s Mansion is filled with men. What does it look like for a girl like you to run there every day? What will outsiders say about our Marquis Mansion?"

"Old-fashioned!" Mu Huarong shrugged indifferently, "Just mind your own business, big brother; you don’t need to concern yourself with mine."

She walked a few steps and turned back, "Didn’t our parents send you a letter saying anything?"

Mu Niancheng was inwardly surprised, why did she ask this?

This sister has always been deep in thought, and everything she says might have a deeper meaning.

Thinking of this, he called his attendant to ask if any letters had arrived from the south.

Unexpectedly, the attendant said the month’s letters from the south had not yet arrived.

That night

Mu Niancheng was still at the medicine furnace, staring blankly at a pile of medicinal herbs.

He failed again.

These days, he didn’t know how many times he had failed. Alas, the more he failed, the smaller Hua’en’s chance of recovery became.

"Knock knock... knock knock..."

The knocking interrupted his thoughts, and opening the door, he saw his attendant holding a young maid outside.

"What’s going on?"

"Master, this young maid was sneaking around the medicine furnace."

"Mmph mmph..." The young maid’s mouth was covered.

Mu Niancheng looked closely; wasn’t this Mu Huarong’s maid?

"Bring her in."

Inside the medicine room, the young maid was thrown to the ground.

"I remember you’re Cui’er, Huarong’s maid, right?" Mu Niancheng asked coldly, "What has she tasked you with?"

Cui’er shook her head vigorously.

"Untie her and let her speak."

Once freed, Cui’er hurriedly said, "Young master, please find a way to save the second young lady."
