Su Muge laid back to the coffin and closed her eyes, as if nothing had happened.
“My lord, it’s true. We all saw that the eldest Miss opened her eyes! She dies with everlasting regret!”
“You all shut up!” Su Lun entered the mourning hall wearing a loose regular suite, with an impatient expression as if the dead girl was not her daughter.
He was woken up in the concubine’s room, so he was filled with anger and impatience.
He didn’t believe in the saying of “die with everlasting regret”, however, when he swept into the hall, a chilly wind blew through his soles and ran straight to the back. He couldn't help shivering.
Into the hall, Su Lun caught sight of the dark coffin, he swallowed unconsciously. He always didn’t like this daughter. Moreover, even if she had died, she continued to interrupt him.
“My lord, it’s so dark in the evening. I’m afraid that they are dazzled. The doctor confirmed that the eldest Miss had had no breath.”
The feminine voice was from the master mistress An, Su Muge recognized.
Hearing that, Su Lun put down his guilty conscience.
He walked quickly to the coffin and frowned to see it.
Su Muge was the same as that of being put into the coffin. Nothing’s different!
“The eldest Miss is normal, what’s wrong?”
“Bu... but, just...now, we and the second Miss all saw that the eldest Miss opened her eyes!”
“Nonsense!” Su Lun snorted angrily because a bunch of useless things jeopardized his joy.
An also took a glance at the coffin, the drooping eyes hiding her laugh in the eyes.
“My lord, it’s so late. You should have a rest. You have to attend the imperial court session in the early morning, I will take care of here.”
“OK.”
“Aha!”
Su Lun was going to leave while hearing a heavy yawn suddenly, as if there was a breath that a person made when he was exhausted.
He stopped his steps and looked at An. He asked, “What are you doing?”
An flustered a little and said, “I did nothing.”
“Aha!”
There was another yawn.
An also heart this yawn.
The two became stiff instantly, because, the sound was from the coffin!
“Aha!”
The sound was more and more loud, more and more frequent.
Su Lun mustered up his courage to turn back, he saw Su Muge reaching straight her arms, and sitting straight up from the coffin!
Su Muge’s dark eyes shining weird light were on Su Lun straightly. Her bloodless lips opened a little, and it seemed that Su Lun could see tusks in her mouth which could eat people.
“Ghost, Ghost, there is really a ghost!”
An was to be scared to death, grasping the hand of Su Lun and shivering.
“Help, help, the eldest Miss has been a ferocious ghost, she has been a ferocious ghost”
For an instant, An’s eyes turned around and she fainted.
Su Lun was no better than An. His legs were shivering and the whole body collapsed on the ground. His frightened eyes were staring at Su Muge who jumped out from the coffin.
“Help, help!”
Su Muge jumped to Su Lun like a zombie with legs together. Her dark eyes were close to him bit by bit, lifting up her mouth slightly.
“Surprise!”
“Ah!”
The screams almost ruptured the eardrums. Su Lun stared at Su Muge, shaking severely and going limp.
Su Muge sneered looking at the yellow liquid that was full of reeks under the body of Su Lun.
“That’s all your courage.”
People in the hall almost ran away, Su Muge loosed herself up and took a bite of the roast chicken in the altar.
“Mumu, is Mumu awake? Is my Mumu awake?”
Su Muge had not been replete and she heart a mournful voice outside the mourning hall.
Su Muge caught sight of a skinny and pregnant woman staggering to the hall, wearing a plain white dress.
“Mumu, you really are Mumu, my honey...” The woman had a pretty oval face, at first sight you would recognize she was a beauty. However, she cried a lot, so her almond eyes were red and swollen and her face was pale, which hid her original beauty.
She was Zhao, the mother of the predecessor. For no reason, Su Muge felt stuffy and sour in the heart when seeing Zhao.
Maybe it’s the feelings of the predecessor. After all, she was her mother.
As an orphan, Su Muge had no idea about how to deal with the sudden affection.
Hesitating a second, she responded Zhao, “It’s me.”
“Mumu, Are you really OK? God bless you. God bless you.”
Su Muge embraced Zhao, comforting her in a soft voice, and she felt Zhao was really skinny.
“Yes, I come back to live.” And I will live a wonderful life on behalf of your daughter!
Su Muge and Zhao left the mourning hall to the Peachblossom Courtyard, even if she was prepared, she was astonished when seeing the yard.This yard was remote and empty. Except for an old and dying tree, there was nothing in the yard, not conforming to the yard name Peachblossom Courtyard at all. The table and chairs in the room had lost much paint and were so mottled that couldn’t recognize what’s the original color. Zhao and the predecessor lived a dozen years under this condition, however, as the husband and father, Su Lun didn’t care at all.“Mumu, you fell into water and scared, you should have a good rest tonight, I’ will invite a doctor to see you tomorrow morning.”“OK.”She just woke up and was feeble, so she fell asleep as soon as she lay down, closing her heavy eyes.This night, the whole Su mansion was messy, but the “chief criminal” slept tight.…“My Miss is to see
Su Lun wore a blue gown embroidered dark lines, with an agate belt which demonstrated his status. He was more dignified than wearing the loose dark gown.If Zhao had not repeated again and again that Muge was alive, he would have never entered this room.It’s so unfortunate!An wore a long dress to the ankle, lotus leaf colored with a pattern of moonlight in lotus pond, making her beautiful and elegant.An was a little over thirty and took a good skin care, so her skin was smooth and delicate while that of Zhao was withered and yellow.“Daddy, help me to plead my sister for forgiving me, please.”Su Lun saw that his favorite daughter was crying heavily and his face clouded. “Why are you blaming your little sister? It’s your own idea to play in the lotus pond and fell into water, is this your sister’s fault?”Su Muge had already given up on her slag father, but she had not expecte
It provoked Su Lun that Zhao was to kneel down to Su Jingwen. Even though he didn’t like Zhao and he didn’t treat them as human, she was his original wife and he thought that Su Jingwen looked down on him for bullying her blatantly. Maybe it’s because he had a low birth, he was inferior subconsciously.“How can you prove that your little sister drowned you intentionally?”“Daddy, maybe you don’t know I can swim from childhood. I can swim in big rivers, let alone the little lotus pond?”“Nonsense, you can’t swim at all!” Su Jingwen was anxious when hearing that.“Daddy, if you don’t believe I can swim, I can prove it.”Zhao thought this Muge was so strange and she was so different from the before.Su Lun thought Muge had no reason to lie. He frowned and turned to Su Jingwen, now he thought she lied.He knew that An and her daughter always didn’t like Zhao and Muge, but he thought
“You, you are chopping the logic!”Su Lun pointed at Su Muge with a shivering hand, and his eyes were fierce, as if he would eat her.“You don’t care about whether I was pushed by Su Jingwen into water and almost died. You only care about her. She just takes a little punishment, and your heart, liver, spleen and lung all ache, right? So that is what it is, I’m lower than a servant in your heart!”He did!An was to cry out when she saw Su Jingwen almost choked to faint.They were all astonished that Muge became so eloquent after dying one time.“You, how could it possible that I do not to care whether you live or die!” Even thought he was, he couldn’t speak out.Some fellow official accused him behind his back when he abandoned Zhao and married An. If they knew he didn’t care about the life of his original wife and truth-born daughter, he would get a bad reputation.“I just think y
Su Jingwen was choked with some water, and when she was lifted to Orchid Courtyard, she had fainted.An loved her daughter best and she was heartbroken when seeing that.“My lord, if something bad were to happen to Wen, I will die with her.” Su Lun was also worried about Su Jingwen.“Don’t worry, Wen will be OK.”The doctor came soon and felt the pulse for Su Jingwen.“Doctor, how’s my daughter?”The old doctor stood up and said, “My lord and madam, don't worry. The lady is just choked and scared. It's OK after taking the medicine for two days.”“Thank you, doctor.” An winked at Li Mama, an old maid of An, and Li gave a pouch having some money in to the doctor.“I will walk you out.”“Good bye.”Su Jingwen woke up after taking some medicine.Her eyes were red with blood because of congestion.“Mom, I will kill her,
The labor pain became more intense after Zhao eating some sugar porridge.Su Muge took a look at Zhao’s private part. The cervix had opened two centimeters. “Mom, hang on, the cervix is to open.”Zhao was healthy generally, but she had been bullied by An for many years, which harmed her health to some extent, and she went into labor early. She was dizzy but she made all her efforts to keep a clear mind. She had no energy to think why Muge knew a lot about labor.Su Muge sent Yueru to collect all she needed, at the same time, the cervix was open fully.“Mom, listen to me, breathe in and breathe out, try hard!”Zhao grasped the quilt and obeyed Muge unconsciously.Zhao had given birth to a child and this was her second labor. It should have been smooth. However, it’s been a long time, there was no more progress.Meihua and other maids were too young to know the childbirth things, and they were a
“Congratulations, my lord, Madam Zhao has given birth to a boy.”Su Lun was back from drinking, and everyone congratulated him on having a son. He was so excited that he treated the maids of Peachblosoom Courtyard better.He was in his thirties and expected a son for a long time, so he was so excited to see the baby.An followed Su Lun and she forced herself to smile, pinching Li Mama with her sharp fingernails so heavily that Li was frown for the pain.She really gave birth to a baby, and it’s a boy!“Congratulations, my lord, heaven is blessing you.”“It’s right, my lord. Madam An prayed for Madam Zhao in the temple in the daytime, and Madam Zhao gave birth to a boy in the evening.”Su Lun looked at An gently. “You are so kind.”An glanced at the yard and said, “My lord, the young master is precious and he should be taken good care of, but Zhao is so weak after a labor that she
“I want to strangle that bastard!”“Peng!” An pounded on the pear wooden table heavily.“Oh, my Madam. What are you doing? It will hurt yourself.”“Why didn’t she go to die!” An was so furious, up and down in the chest. For many years, she designed numbers of methods for killing Zhao and Muge, but she didn’t put into practice. The reason why she permitted Zhao being pregnant many months was because she was intended to make Zhao and her fetus both die and no one can suspect her. “Relax, my Madam. Now the baby is here. What are you worrying about?”“That bastard? You think I should bring up him? Don’t forget, he is Zhao’s son and with her blood, that bitch!”Li Mama understood that An had a higher birth than Zhao who was humble and An looked down on Zhao. However, An couldn’t give birth to a boy.But Li couldn’t say that out.“Madam, the young master is a treasure of the lord and n
