The head of the Mu family

Chapter 121 The Intelligent Noblewoman, Jingtang, Lost in Thought

"Madam! It would be good if all the women in the world knew what you meant!"

"Huaisheng, you refused to marry Uncle Jingtang, not because of the reasons you told them, right?"

What you really want is a complete and consistent love from beginning to end.

It is common for men in this world to have multiple wives and concubines.

Why can't a woman have a complete heart?

No matter how good this man is, if his heart is divided in two, it's better not to have him at all.

"lady..."

Huai Sheng couldn't stop her tears from flowing. The noblewoman quickly gave her a handkerchief and hugged her.

After a while, Huai Sheng stopped crying, and the noblewoman smiled and said:

"Just cry it out~"

There's still a long way to go, Hui'er, you haven't seen it yet, have you?

"You heartless bastard! This baby was born thanks to your prescription, and you didn't even come to check on it!"

"Madam, what you say is true of Jingyang as well~"

Huai Sheng chuckled.

At this moment, the attendant announced that it was time for lunch, and the noblewoman took Huaisheng with her to the dining hall.

The old Marquis and his wife were having their meal in their own courtyard, as was the noblewoman with her children.

Jingtang and Jingyang have already arrived, and Xiaohui'er is so cute and babbling.

Everyone sat down to eat as usual, and after finishing their meal, they went for a walk in the garden and chatted.

"Sister Huaisheng, you seem happier today than last time!"

Xiao Jingtang said happily.

Huai Sheng and the noblewoman exchanged a glance and smiled at each other.

Huai Sheng tapped his nose and said:

"How could I not be happy because I saw Jingtang, Jingyang, and Xiaohui'er today?"

"From now on, come and visit us often, and don't look at those people who make people unhappy~"

"Okay! I'll come every day from now on, I'm sure I'll be happy."

Jingtang is right after all.

Huai Sheng then spoke with the noblewoman about the recent situation involving Tibetan slaves.

After explaining the whole story to the noblewoman, she hesitated for a long time with tears in her eyes before finally speaking:

"There are still such people in the world, who deserve to be torn to pieces."

Seeing you like that before already made me feel the bitterness of the world, but I never imagined...

"Sister Huaisheng, next time I have a day off, could you take me with you to help out?"

Xiao Jingtang choked up as she spoke.

Huai Sheng glanced at the noblewoman after hearing this, and the noblewoman wiped away her tears:

"No need for the next day off. If Huaisheng goes tomorrow, I'll ask the master for leave, and you can go and help out tomorrow!"

"Your Highness, if you're going, you really need to help me. Have you thought this through?"

“I’ve thought it through. I want to bring Jingyang with me.”

Sister~ You've always told me since I was little that people need to see and experience more in order to grow.

Only then can I do more right things~

Mu Huaisheng was somewhat moved:

This is truly a good child with impeccable character!

"Okay, it's settled then. I'll pick you up around 7 AM tomorrow. Dress comfortably."

After their walk, the two boys went to read. Jingtang turned back and said:

"I don't care~ Sister Huaisheng, you have to stay for dinner~"

"Okay, okay, okay~"

Even if you don't say anything, I'm still going to stay here and have dinner.

Huai Sheng smiled helplessly. After the two left, the noblewoman pulled Huai Sheng aside to talk.

It turned out that after Huaisheng returned, the kind-hearted couple planned to find another opportunity to persuade him.

The noblewoman then told the two of them what she had said.

After hearing this, the two remained silent for a long time. After that, their relationship seemed to improve, and they never mentioned Huaisheng again.

After listening, Huai Sheng remained silent for a long time before finally speaking softly:

"If a woman like General Yan cannot find a truly sincere heart in this world."

"Oh God, you've really lost your eyes!"

The two of them chatted on and on, talking about many everyday things.

The noblewoman indicated that she could also arrange for some Tibetan slaves to go to her estate.

Upon hearing this, Huai Sheng was so grateful that he didn't know what to say.

The noblewoman also needed to arrange for the remaining soldiers and orphans, so Huai Sheng directly told her to find Ping Bo, as the Great Hao Dynasty had far too many remaining soldiers and orphans.

They had another pleasant dinner together that evening. If it weren't for the fact that he was older, Jingtang would have loved for Huaisheng to stay in his courtyard all night.

At the beginning of the next day, Huai Sheng and Uncle Mo rode their horses to the Marquis's residence, where Jing Tang and Jing Yang were already waiting at the gate.

Upon seeing Huaisheng dressed as a man and riding a horse, a servant immediately led the horse over, and the two of them mounted and followed without any attendants.

Because the two young masters of the Marquis's mansion had arrived, Madam Lan gave them a formal reception. Jing Tang immediately said:

"We are not young masters from the Marquis's mansion today; we are the younger brothers of Sister Huaisheng, here to help her."

Mrs. Lan, there's no need for such formalities.

Mu Huaisheng was very pleased:

I didn't notice!

The air of nobility cultivated by this aristocratic family is truly extraordinary!

These few words are so elegant and sophisticated!

Mrs. Lan was surprised for a moment, but immediately returned to her usual self.

They only sent two more head maids and two clever servants to help.

When the two young noblemen saw the Tibetan slave, they almost vomited from the physical reaction.

He went outside and rested for a while before coming back in.

After the two children came in again, they earnestly helped Huaisheng.

At the end of the day, the two boys remained silent the entire way home.

A few days later, Jingtang came to see Huaisheng at lunchtime, and Huaisheng arranged for him to have a meal.

"Sister Huaisheng, I'd like to help out again next time I have a day off!"

"I don't need your help anymore, I have others to help me~"

You must know that you were born a nobleman's son, and now that you've been granted the title of heir apparent, your hands can help even more people!

Seeing Jingtang's puzzled look, Huaisheng explained further:

“Like when I walked from the pastoral village to Panlong, you know there are very few people like that in the surrounding area.”

But if I hadn't met you and my wife, I might not have even set foot in Yedu yet.

If I hadn't been unwilling to be sold since childhood, I would have tried to learn arithmetic and literacy.

Later, I tried to learn medicine, but I probably will never be able to leave Duoshui Town in my lifetime.

If I were to acquire some medical skills, enough to make a living, that would be fine.

Even if I go to Panlong, I won't have the opportunity to see a doctor at Jishetang.

I had no chance to gain any reputation so that my wife would seek my treatment.

And you—even if you don't meet Mu Huaisheng of Jishetang, there are countless Mu Huaishengs that you, Madam, can find.

Because of the Marquis's family fortune and the country's influence on the frontier.

What I've achieved after twenty years of hard work.

It's just one of the hundreds of things you were born with in the Marquis's mansion!

If you work harder, you can help more than just these few Tibetan slaves.

Perhaps you can help millions of poor people like this!

"I think I understand now, I'm going back to school!"

Saying his farewell thoughtfully, Huai Sheng saw him off onto his horse.

A moment later, Jingtang turned back and smiled:

"Sister Huaisheng, if you don't come to my house for meals, I'll come to eat with you more often!"

"Good, good, good!"

Come here! Come here!

After thinking for a moment, he changed the subject.

No! No!

"I'll come to your house for dinner. A kid's appetite is terrifying!"

Jingtang left with a grin, and Huaisheng also went back into the house with a grin.

At the end of February, Qingyue, Wanxing, and Uncle Dong went and took over the cloth shop next door.

The shop alone costs 3,000 taels, and the goods and people inside will cost 2,000 taels to acquire.

The three of them worked together, and in the end, the landlord bought the item for 3,800 taels of silver.
