Chapter 1433 The cropped photo
In the days that followed, Mo Yuchen stayed at the Lu family to recuperate, and handled official business in the study.
Mu Qingyan still loves to go to the garden and learns how to grow flowers with Aunt Pei every day.
The two of them didn't communicate much. Apart from nodding and shaking their heads, Mrs. Pei asked most about Mo Yuchen's condition.
Aunt Pei was the second Lu family member Mu Qingyan saw besides her grandfather who was really worried about Mo Yuchen.
After going back and forth, Mu Qingyan learned something.
Sister-in-law Pei has been in the Lu family for many years. When Lu Ruoyu was not married, she had been taking care of Lu Ruoyu and treated her as her own daughter.
After Lu Ruoyu married into the Mo family, Mrs. Pei moved to the kitchen. Later she heard that Lu Ruoyu committed suicide and was heartbroken, so she applied to grow flowers and tea in the back garden.
Mu Qingyan learned from Sister-in-law Pei that her mother-in-law liked two things most in her life, one was flowers and the other was cello.
Sister-in-law Pei took this opportunity to commemorate the passing of the young lady.
"Do you have a photo of my mother-in-law?" Mu Qingyan typed out curiously and showed it to Aunt Pei.
Mrs. Pei was stunned for a moment and looked at her doubtfully.
Mu Qingyan explained: "I don't have many photos of my mother-in-law and father-in-law at home. It seems that they locked them up because they were afraid that my grandpa would be sad. Even Mo Yuchen didn't have a few photos in his hands. I really want to see what my mother-in-law looked like when she was young. Yu Chen is so handsome, my mother-in-law must have been a great beauty when she was young."
Mrs. Pei¡¯s eyes lit up, as if she was happy when someone else praised her daughter. She nodded with a smile, pointed at Mu Qingyan, and made a gesture, which meant:
Very beautiful, as beautiful as you.
??Sister-in-law Pei can see that Master Biao and Mrs. Biao have a very good relationship. Ruoyu will definitely be very happy that the child is in the spirit of heaven.
Unable to bear to refuse, Mrs. Pei put down the scissors and shower head, wiped her hands on her apron, and took Mu Qingyan to her room.
This is the first time Mu Qingyan has been to the servant's room at the back. Because it is working time, the house is deserted. Aunt Pei's room is very remote, at the end of the corner.
The door opened, and inside was a small bedroom with very few things, only some necessities.
Mu Qingyan, who was also an old employee of the Lu family for decades, thought of the butler¡¯s clean and high-end uniform and the gold watch on his wrist.
Mrs. Pei affectionately pulled Mu Qingyan to sit by the bed, and pulled out an iron box from the bottom of the wardrobe with a rusty lock on it.
Mrs. Pei took out the key from her pocket and opened it. There was a small stack of photos inside.
Mu Qingyan¡¯s eyes lit up when she saw the first one.
She had seen the wedding photos of her mother-in-law and father-in-law, and the family photos taken by the Mo family. The picture of Lu Ruoyu in them all looked like a gentle married woman. But in the old photo in her hand, the girl had bright eyes and bright teeth. She smiled sweetly, and her smart and beautiful eyes curved into crescent shapes.
A hint of Mo Yuchen can be seen in the girl's outline.
Mrs. Pei and Mu Qingyan looked at it together and pointed at the time in the corner.
This was taken when Lu Ruoyu was in high school.
Mu Qingyan flipped through the photos one by one, and suddenly found that half of the photos were missing.
Lu Ruoyu seemed to be holding someone's hand, but that person was cut out.
"Sister-in-law Pei, what happened to this? Did you tear it off accidentally?"
Mrs. Pei's expression was stagnant, and the smile on her face faded a lot. She nodded casually, then took away this one and pointed at the bottom to let Mu Qingyan continue reading.
Mu Qingyan pretended not to notice anything and continued to admire it.
Leaving Aunt Pei¡¯s place, Mu Qingyan walked from the garden to the main house. She was stopped as soon as she reached the door.
