Chapter 14
When Shuang Muzi returned to the room, she saw Mother Du sitting at the table, drinking tea from time to time.
"Mom Du hasn't slept so late yet?" Shuang Muzi was very curious. It must be something that Du's mother is so late.
"Where is your mother, keep your word. Tomorrow, Cui'er will go out for fun with you, but..." Mother Du paused and said, "You have to come back before the opening, and don't apply such heavy makeup again, otherwise, don't blame me for turning against me." Mother Du glanced at the eyes of Shuangmuzi and said without saying goodbye.
"Muzi thanks Du's mother. However, the appearance problem will not affect Muzi's performance." Shuang Muzi nodded and said, and how could such words make her excuse Du's mother?
"It will not affect your performance, but it will affect my business; look, what do you paint such a beautiful face? Miss Xia and you are introducing it at the same time, and now they are the number one young man in "Liangcheng", Mr. Song's treasure; but you are scary all day long with heavy powder, and you still let me live." Mother Du pulled Shuangmuzi to the bronze mirror and scolded her very much.
"Mom Du's lesson is that Muzi is incompetent and embarrassing Mom Du." Shuang Muzi looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and heard about Song Jingran and Yu Zixia, and felt depressed.
"Mom is not teaching you a lesson, mom just wants you to know that if you have the ability to fight for it now, you have to make good use of it. If you can't be the best, you will have to be trampled on for the rest of your life. Do you understand?" Du's mother felt unhappy when she saw Shuangmuzi, and comforted her again.
After experiencing the changing times, she knew very well that a girl's helplessness and unfamiliarity when she first entered a fireworks place, and her fate did not allow her to choose, but everyone has the right to change or choose a way to live. She just hopes that Shuangmuzi will get into the state as soon as possible. After all, her fate belonged here a few years ago.
"Muzi understands it. Please give Muzi some time. Muzi will definitely not disappoint Du's mother." Shuang Muzi admitted that Du's mother was right. If she didn't fight for it, she might miss her whole life, but she still needs time to prepare.
"Okay, think about it yourself and take a break early!" Mother Du shook her head helplessly and left. Maybe what she wanted was time, and I hope she would not wait too long.
"Mom Du is easy to leave." Shuang Muzi said thoughtfully at Mom Du's fat figure.
When Du's mother left, Cui'er served Shuangmuzi to wash.
"Cui'er, are you familiar with 'Liangcheng'?" Shuang Muzi sat down in front of the bronze mirror.
Cui'er took off her hair bun for Shuang Muzi and said, "Although I am from 'Liangcheng', I have been sold to Yanyu Building since I was a child and rarely have time to go out, so I am not familiar with it."
"As a slave, you don't have to call yourself a slave, just call it a name." Shuangmuzi and Cui'er had a time together. Cui'er was serious and meticulous, and she was very smart. Shuangmuzi liked it very much.
"Miss Xie Shuang." Cui'er saw that although Shuang Muzi never laughed, she was still gentle and got along very well.
"It's getting late, you can go down early and go to bed. Tomorrow, I'll have to worry about you to accompany me out." How long has it been since Shuang Muzi's sandalwood comb in Cui'er's hand been that she no longer has the habit of being served by others.
Cui'er stepped back and nodded and said, "Miss Shuang also rested early, Cui'er said she was leaving."
Shuang Muzi nodded and answered, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, she didn't know what expression to give back.
The next morning, Shuangmuzi left with Cui'er and two big men. The accompanying sounded good, but actually was surveillance.
Shuang Muzi was wearing white clothes and simply tied up her front hair, while her back hair was scattered casually behind her back. The heavy powder on her face caused people coming and going on the street to wink and point fingers.
Shuangmuzi looked meaningless and walked around the street casually. Cui'er followed closely, and the two big men were just in the distance, just keeping Shuangmuzi from running away. After a while, they came to a big mansion and stopped. I saw that the vaguely visible "Lin Mansion" hung high on the gate that had been rusted; Shuangmuzi stood in a daze; this was the place where she grew up since she was a child, but now she has fallen to this point; she felt a burst of sadness in her heart, and tears flowed down the corners of her eyes.
"Miss Shuang..." Seeing this, Cui'er stepped forward and reminded Shuang Muzi with her eyes.
Shuang Muzi understood and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes; she looked reluctantly, then turned around and left.
Song Jingran walked out of the path beside him and happened to see Shuang Muzi leaving behind, but she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity in her heart. She shook her head gently and turned around and left.
After leaving the "Lin Mansion", Shuangmuzi was unintentionally wandering, so she hurriedly returned to Yanyu Tower. After experiencing the past, Shuangmuzi was unintentional to deal with those pastime and fun, so she simply asked Cui'er to ask Mother Du to take sick leave on the grounds of preparing and resting in the room.
"Miss Shuang knows that 'Lin Mansion'?" Cui'er was stunned when she saw Shuang Muzi come back from the Lin Mansion's gate, thinking it was related to this moment.
"Why, Cui'er knows it too?" Since the Lin Mansion was killed, very few people have dared to mention it again. Cui'er suddenly asked whether Shuang Muzi could find out some situations with a slight excitement and expectation.
Cui'er shook her head and said, "How could Cui'er know such a wealthy family? But when Cui'er occasionally heard that when she went out to do business, the Lin family was often haunted, so no one dared to live there."
"Haunted..." Shuang Muzi looked at Cui'er curiously and unknownly. It would be too ridiculous if there were any sayings about ghosts and gods;
"That's right? Over the years, several wealthy families have been willing to buy the Lin Mansion. However, when they heard that the haunted ghosts were still there, they sent people to try it. Those who didn't want to try it went crazy when they came out and said that there were ghosts in the mansion. Later, no one dared to mention the Lin Mansion again." Cui'er said seriously, with a hint of horror on her face.
"Did no one go to check it?" Shuang Muzi wanted to know too much about Lin Mansion.
"Many people have investigated before and after, but in the end they were fruitless. Later, no one has investigated again." Cui'er said while pouring water.
"Oh..." Shuang Muzi nodded thoughtfully, and felt funny in her heart. How could the huge Lin Mansion be haunted? Even if there are ghosts and gods, they are still the wronged souls who were brutally killed in the mansion, and they are here to ask for their lives from those evil people.
Cui'er handed over the tea and saw that Shuang Muzi was still in a daze, she also asked tentatively: "Miss Shuang, are you..."
"Oh... I have a distant relative who once worked as a servant in the Lin Mansion, so..." Shuang Muzi came back to her senses. She was too sensitive to the Lin Mansion and lost her composure for a while. I hope that Cui'er would not notice it.
"No wonder Miss Frost is sad. I heard that a few years ago, Lin's family was destroyed overnight, and no one in the mansion was spared. I believe that your distant relative..." Cui'er couldn't bear to say anything more, and didn't want to continue to try it. After all, everyone has their own secrets.
"A person cannot be resurrected after death. After so many years, I have become calm." In order to prevent Cui'er from being suspicious, Shuang Muzi had to say this. Although her heart hurts, she has to endure it.
Cui'er nodded, suddenly remembered Du's mother's orders, so she said, "By the way, Du's mother just sent someone to give the order, saying that she would let Miss Shuang appear tonight."
