Chapter 365: They are all plotting against the Mu family
Liu patiently explained to Mu Baobao, "It's the benefits of silver."
"Look, baby, we have such a powerful backer behind us. Those people must be trying to get on top of us."
Now, Mu Baobao understood, "So that's how it is."
"Then we can't let Big Brother and his family get engaged. That would be so unfair to them."
Liu thought to herself that this was not a matter of fairness or unfairness, but that their family would be plotted against.
"Don't worry about these things, baby. Just have fun."
Mu Baobao chuckled, "I'm just curious."
"Aunt, please tell me more."
Liu tapped her forehead twice and said with a smile, "I think you are just a gossip."
"If you have this idea, you might as well go have fun."
Just as Mu Baobao was about to pester her to find out more, he saw a servant coming.
Yes, another matchmaker came to the door.
This time there were not just one matchmaker, but three.
main hall.
Liu sat in the first seat, Mu Baobao sat in her arms, and the three matchmakers sat at the bottom.
"I wonder what brings the three matchmakers here?" Liu asked with a smile.
Mu Baobao looked at the three matchmakers again and again. The matchmaker from Rongdu was dressed better than the ones in the village.
"Oh, I'm here to propose marriage." Matchmaker Hu said with a smile, "Someone has set their sights on your eldest son."
The other two matchmakers said with a smile.
"Matchmaker Hu, you are not allowed to take the lead. We are both here to propose marriage."
"That's right, as colleagues, we can't have conflicts."
Matchmaker Hu said, "Look at what you said. I didn't get ahead of you. I just explained the situation first."
"Which son of the Mu family are you here to propose marriage to?"
The two matchmakers said, "The eldest son of the Mu family."
Liu, “…”
Why are they all targeting Pingping?
Mu Baobao exclaimed, "Big brother is so awesome! Actually, everyone came to propose to him."
"I'm sorry, everyone," Liu said, trying hard to keep her smile from falling. "Pingping won't be getting engaged in the next few years."
Matchmaker Hu said, "Madam, don't refuse so quickly. Listen to the conditions of these families first. It's not too late to talk later."
Liu: "...Three matchmakers, you know it, and I know it too."
"These families don't really want to marry into our family. They want to use this as an opportunity to get close to Prince Rui, Mr. Cheng, and Doctor Deng."
Some even want to win the emperor's favor and gain greater benefits for their own family.
The three matchmakers looked at each other, and they saw that the Mu family had a very thorough understanding.
These families really looked down on the Mu family, but the Mu family had the Rui Wang Mansion as their backing and was deeply loved by the emperor.
If you can marry into the Mu family, not only can you get the support of powerful families like the Rui Palace, you may also get the favor of the emperor.
In this way, the family will be able to prosper.
"Madam, all family marriages are like this, they are all for profit."
"That's right. Madam, when you're looking for a partner for your own child in the future, won't you also consider benefits?"
"It's better to settle it sooner rather than later to avoid any trouble or being plotted against."
Liu refused again, the smile on her face almost unable to hold, "Three of you, our family does not sell our sons."
"Although I have many sons, I will never betray them."
"Please tell the three matchmakers that my family may be of humble origin, but that doesn't mean we can be easily taken advantage of."
When the three matchmakers saw this situation, they knew that they could not complete the task today, so they said goodbye and left.
After leaving the Mu family’s house, the three matchmakers looked back at the house.
"The Mu family must be even more blessed, otherwise they wouldn't easily reject such a good marriage."
"The Mu family has such a powerful backer. If it were you, would you easily arrange a marriage? And it's for the daughter of an ordinary merchant."
"Just wait and see, the Mu family will prosper soon."
Because matchmakers came to propose marriage many times, the Mu family simply stopped letting matchmakers in and announced to others that their children would not be engaged in the next few years.
For this reason, Lian Mubao was restricted from going out, and her family was afraid that she would be targeted by someone with ulterior motives.
this day.
Led by Zheng Xingguang, Mu Baobao and other children came to the horse farm of Prince Rui's Mansion.
The horse farm of Prince Rui's Mansion is located in a mountain in the suburbs.
The entire mountain is the horse farm.
The foot of the mountain was fenced off and guarded by special people to prevent the horses from leaving the mountain.
When Mu Baobao and his companions arrived here, they saw many leisurely horses.
Brown, white, black...horses of many colors can be seen, as well as adult horses and young horses.
There are also ponies that never grow up.
"Little brother, those small, short horses are so cute." Mu Baobao pointed at a pony and looked at it with starry eyes.
Boys like Mu Pingping prefer tall and mighty horses to ponies.
"Baby, how can a horse like this be cute? Tall and mighty horses are more beautiful."
"That's true, but everyone has different preferences. You can't force your baby to like tall horses."
Mu Baobao ignored them and pulled Zheng Xingguang to the front of the pony.
"Brother, can I touch it?"
This horse is so cute.
Zheng Xingguang was worried that the horse might kick its hoof, so he asked the steward to come over and say, "Please keep an eye on this pony and make sure it doesn't hurt the baby."
The steward bent slightly and led the horse respectfully, "Please rest assured, my lord. The pony has a gentle temperament."
Zheng Xingguang was still a little worried.
After confirming again and again that there was no danger, he agreed to let Mu Baobao touch the pony.
"Be careful, baby. Touch gently."
Baby Mu hummed, carefully stretched out his paw and touched the pony's neck.
"Wow, little brother, its fur is so smooth and comfortable."
Zheng Xingguang explained, "The horses here are all taken care of by dedicated people, so they feel very comfortable to touch."
The horses at the stables are not only cared for by dedicated staff, but their food and drink are also well-matched, so they feel naturally comfortable to touch.
Mu Baobao doesn't understand these things, nor does he know how much money it takes to maintain such a horse farm.
She touched the pony again and again, liking it very much. "Little brother, why are these horses so short? And so cute?"
Zheng Xingguang said, "It's because of the species."
Mu Baobao didn't understand much and didn't ask much, because he was mainly attracted by the various horses.
"Little brother, let's go over there and take a look. There are a lot of horses over there."
Many horses in the stable looked at Mu Baobao again and again, and some horses even wanted to get closer, but they couldn't because there were many servants nearby.
The wooden baby looked here and touched there, and was very happy.
"Little brother, can the people here take care of so many horses?"
Zheng Xingguang said, "Sure."
"Sir," the steward came over and saluted, "The Su family is here."
"The Su family?" Mu Baobao didn't recognize them at all. "What are the Su family doing here?"
