Chapter 369: Last Resort
The sun hadn't set yet, but the sunlight had become extremely soft, and even in Mu Wensheng's dilapidated small courtyard, there seemed to be a hint of peace.
Mu Wensheng stood up and said, "It's time!"
Lin Xuan asked, "Do you want me to accompany you?"
Mu Wensheng said with a smile: "Even if you go with you, you can only stand outside the gate in the backyard at that time." ”
Lin Xuan then got up and said, "I'd better go with me, who told me to be your bodyguard now?"
Mu Wensheng couldn't help but say: "Brother Lin, it's okay for you to come along, but don't make trouble, although I know that the Mu family can't afford to mess with you." ”
Lin Xuan smiled, he had to follow all the time, but also for his own sake, if something really happened to Mu Wensheng, how could he explain it to Wan Xiaoling?
The two walked along the paved concrete road to the backyard.
Lin Xuan realized that the Mu family's house was really not small, and the two walked for more than half an hour before coming to the backyard.
The three Mu Wenrui brothers and sisters were already there, but when the three of them saw Mu Wensheng, none of them spoke.
Next to Mu Wenqing stood his husband Cai Ping, Lin Xuan had seen him at the gate, but everyone still turned a blind eye, including Mu Wenqing.
Of course, Song Hong was also there, and there were more than thirty black-clothed men standing behind him, standing in three rows, each silent, and suddenly the matter in front of him became a little solemn.
Only Song Hong grinned again at Lin Xuan.
Since Lin Xuan sent the Luo family father and son to prison, he has not been in a bad mood, and now he is in a good mood, so Lin Xuan proudly raised a middle finger towards Song Hong.
The corners of Song Hong's mouth instantly fell, and his face was even more gloomy as if he had died in his family. He was also reminded by Mu Wenrui that he was not allowed to make trouble in the Mu family, so even if he wanted to kill Lin Xuan, he had to endure it at this time.
The courtyard door opened, and an old man with gray hair came out.
Lin Xuan thought that he was Mu Xiu, the old man of the Mu family, and he was still secretly praising in his heart: The old man is in good health.
How do you know that the old man opened his mouth and said, "The old man asked the eldest young master to come in first!"
Mu Wenrui bowed to the old man and walked into the courtyard, and then the old man closed the door.
Mu Wensheng said: "This is Fu Bo, who has been following the old man for decades. ”
Lin Xuan understood that this was an old servant of the Mu family, but after decades, no one would regard him as a servant anymore.
Mu Wenrui went in for more than half an hour, during this period, almost everyone standing outside didn't speak, just stood silently, Lin Xuan regretted coming with him, he knew that it was so quiet, it was better to sleep for a while.
Lin Xuan had already learned from Mu Wensheng that this was specially arranged by the old man, and no one knew what to meet and talk about alone, but everyone also knew that this separate meeting would affect the old man's decision, so Mu Wensheng would use his birthday to pit Mu Wenyi.
After Mu Wenrui came out, Mu Wenqing was the second to go in, and her husband Cai Ping stayed where he was.
When Mu Wenqing came out and Mu Wenyi went in, Lin Xuan asked Mu Wensheng, "Have you thought about what to say when you go in?"
Mu Wensheng smiled slightly, his face was a little pale, but his eyes became clearer and brighter, and he was obviously waiting.
Lin Xuan nodded secretly, he was really prepared.
Mu Wenyi came out, he sneered and said to Mu Wensheng: "Grandpa called you!" After speaking, he turned around and walked towards Mu Wenrui's side.
Mu Wensheng straightened up and followed Fu Bo to the backyard.
In a small courtyard full of potted flowers and plants, an old man sat at a stone table, his white hair and wrinkled face made him look even older.
"Wen Sheng, are you here?" the old man greeted with his gaze.
"Wen Sheng kowtowed to his grandfather!" Mu Wensheng walked closer, knelt down respectfully and kowtowed, he was not pretending, in the entire Mu family, only grandfather Mu Xiu was the most related to him, not to mention that the old man didn't have many days to live, once the old man was gone, Mu Wensheng had no relatives in this world.
Mu Xiu calmly waited until Mu Wensheng finished kowtowing before saying, "Get up!"
Mu Wensheng stood in front of the stone table, his hands hanging down.
Mu Xiu asked, "Your injury was caused by the third child?"
Mu Wensheng said: "Yes, grandpa, but it's no wonder that the third child is confused." ”
Regarding this matter, Mu Wensheng has always imagined that he will portray himself as a weak victim, but at this moment, he was suddenly horrified to find that he seemed to be seen through by his grandfather, so he thought about how to push it on Mu Wenyi, but he couldn't say it anymore, so he simply admitted it himself.
Mu Xiu didn't say anything more, as if he was in deep thought, but he was just pondering for too long, just when Mu Wensheng wondered if his grandfather was asleep, Mu Xiu suddenly said, "Wensheng, what else do you have to say to grandpa?"
Mu Wensheng didn't expect that his grandfather didn't have anything to say for a long time, so he had to ask him what he wanted to say, and his heart was extremely cold, but he had already calculated the good and bad, and at this time he didn't hesitate, looked up at Mu Xiu and said, "Yes!"
Mu Xiu said: "You say!"
Mu Wensheng said proudly: "I know that grandpa has been in a difficult situation recently, but I don't want family property, I just want to ask grandpa a word!"
Mu Xiu was stunned and said, "What are you talking about?" He looked at the child in front of him as if he didn't know him.
Mu Wensheng said: "Grandpa hasn't answered my question yet. ”
Mu Xiu said: "You ask!"
Mu Wensheng said: "May I ask grandpa, am I a child of the Mu family?"
Mu Xiu said: "Of course you are the child of the Mu family-"
Mu Wensheng laughed and said, "It's enough to have grandpa." Grandpa, rest more, I don't care. With that, he strode out, leaving Old Man Mu stunned there.
In Mu Wensheng's small courtyard, Lin Xuan couldn't help but laugh after listening to Mu Wensheng's words.
Mu Wensheng said with a dejected face: "Brother Lin, you don't know, how sad I am now, grandpa seems to have seen through my tricks to frame the third child." I'm a villain!"
Lin Xuan said with a smile: "The old man didn't see through, but was told in advance, I dare to say that Mu Wenrui did it, he can say it from an outsider's point of view." ”
Mu Wensheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said: "Yes, why did I forget my eldest brother!
Lin Xuan smiled: "It's not that bad! Your last question will definitely give the old man a lot of touch, at least he has already admitted that you are a child of the Mu family, and he will never leave you some family property." ”
Mu Wensheng said distressedly: "I have no way out! This is the last trick I have ever thought of! Fortunately, my grandfather has three points of affection for me!"
Lin Xuan said: "Blood is thicker than water, this can't be broken, the old man naturally knows it!
"Gollum-" Mu Wensheng's stomach suddenly screamed.
Lin Xuan smiled: "Let's go, let's go out for supper, but you have a treat!" Then he looked at the bags of instant noodles on the table and said disdainfully: "I don't eat this junk food." ”
Mu Wensheng smiled and said, "Be careful, I don't plan to eat at home these days." But I'm afraid, as soon as I go out, I will meet Song Hong. ”
Lin Xuan looked at the big moon hanging in the sky and said with a smile: "Let's go, I really met outside, and it won't be us who are unlucky." ”
