Chapter 836: Cannon Fodder?
Although Chen Hao only went to the Mujia Manor for the second time, the route was extremely familiar, driving all the way to the city, just over ten minutes had already left the city, appeared on the road in the suburbs, and could vaguely see the huge manor from a distance.
Mu Xueli and Zhao Yi only realized at this time that the destination of Chen Hao and Mu Yanran turned out to be the Mu family manor.
In fact, when she first set off, Mu Xueli had already asked curiously whether she was going there, and she even had to take Zhao Yi with her, but she only got Mu Yanran's words of 'you will know when you get to the place'.
asked Chen Hao, but he didn't get a result, and Mu Xueli could only guess in her heart.
Now that she learned that she was going to the Mu Family Manor, Mu Xueli began to regret it in her heart, and immediately asked cautiously, "Brother-in-law, can I not go?"
Outside, Mu Xueli can express her personality at will, but when she arrives at the Mu family manor, she must restrain her personality and stay honest, otherwise, it will definitely arouse the anger of Old Man Mu.
For a long time, there was nothing particularly important, and Mu Xueli was reluctant to return to the Mu Family Manor, in her heart, staying in the Mu Family Manor was an extremely depressing thing.
"No," a playful smile appeared at the corner of Chen Hao's mouth, and he sternly refused: "I have something important to go there, and now I will be there soon, and if I send you back, I will definitely delay time when I rush over." ”
"Of course, if you're willing to get off here and walk back on your own, that's fine. ”
After listening to Chen Hao's words, Mu Xueli suddenly calmed down, looked outside with unwilling eyes, and didn't see a car passing by for a few minutes, so she had to say helplessly with a pitiful expression: "I'd better go with you." ”
It takes at least half an hour to walk back to the city from here, and that is still in the case of walking fast, when Mu Shirley has walked such a long road except for shopping, she is naturally unwilling, so she can only endure it.
Listening to Mu Xueli's helpless words, the other three couldn't help laughing, and Zhao Yi even joked next to him: "You forced your brother-in-law to bring you here, you can't blame others." ”
"Say it again?" Mu Xueli immediately turned her head, glared fiercely at Zhao Yi who was sitting beside her, and said in a gloomy voice.
"Okay, I won't say it," Zhao Yi shrank his head in fear, and his body involuntarily moved backwards, leaning against the car door tightly, obviously, he was very afraid of Mu Xueli's black-bellied cousin.
"Hmph, count you as acquaintances," Mu Shirley snorted coldly, with a satisfied expression on her face.
"Shirley, Xiaoyi is about to leave with your brother-in-law, be careful to wait for him to come back and teach you a lesson," Mu Yanran looked at Zhao Yi with a frightened look, couldn't help but show a helpless expression, turned her head, and joked to Mu Xueli.
In the Mu family, there are very few people who are not afraid of Mu Xueli, a little witch with a black belly, and even many uncles are often tricked by Mu Xueli, and only Mu Yanran and Old Man Mu can control Mu Xueli.
"How dare he?" a wicked smile appeared on Mu Xueli's face, and she turned her head to look at Zhao Yi.
"Big cousin, don't say it, I dare to bully her there, it's already good if I don't be bullied by her," Zhao Yi showed a wry smile on his face, looked at Mu Yanran with a hint of pleading, and said in a low voice.
"Hmph," although Zhao Yi said the truth, but in Mu Xueli's ears, he couldn't help but snort coldly, showed a hint of a sneer, looked at Zhao Yi, and threatened: "You give me a little care." ”
Zhao Yi suddenly shrunk his neck, not daring to say another word.
While a few people were chatting, the Mu family manor appeared in sight, and slowly stopped at the door through the rugged stone path.
As soon as it stopped, two guards stepped forward and took the initiative to open the door.
The four of them did not hesitate and got out of the car directly.
After Chen Hao threw the car keys to one of the guards, the four of them walked towards the manor together.
After walking for about a minute, when I came to the hall in the front yard, a middle-aged man in a blue robe greeted him, looked at the four of them and said politely: "Miss, uncle, please come with me, the old man is waiting for you in the study." ”
Chen Hao and Mu Yanran glanced at each other and nodded lightly.
Then, Mu Yanran turned her head and said to Mu Xueli next to her: "Xueli, you just take Xiaoyi around and wait for us to come out." ”
Although Zhao Yi is a distant relative of the Mu family, he rarely comes to the Mu family's manor, and even if he comes, he has important things, and he has no chance to wander around at all, even if he has time, he can't enter the backyard.
However, now that there is a curtain of Shirley with her, there is no problem.
"Okay. ”
In the manor, Mu Shirley didn't dare to do things according to her own temperament like outside.
Seeing that Mu Xueli agreed, Mu Yanran turned her head and said to the middle-aged man, "Uncle Peng, I'll trouble you to lead the way in front." ”
"Miss, please follow me," the middle-aged man smiled slightly, made a gesture of please, and led the way in front.
Chen Hao and Mu Yanran did not hesitate and immediately followed.
While walking, Mu Yanran explained softly to Chen Hao: "Hao, this is Elder Peng's son, and he has always been the housekeeper in the manor. ”
"Hmm," Chen Hao nodded lightly, not paying attention.
"Don't underestimate the position of the housekeeper," Seeing that Chen Hao didn't care, Mu Yanran had no choice but to explain patiently: "Uncle Peng is in the Mu family, except for my grandfather and those elders, the person with the most power, even if it is my father and uncle, they have to give Uncle Peng three points of face." ”
"Oh," Chen Hao replied softly, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, obviously he didn't expect that in the Mu family, a person with a foreign surname would have such a great right.
"You just have to know it in your own heart," Seeing that Chen Hao was still like that, Mu Yanran had no choice but to remind her and stop talking.
Uncle Peng in front didn't seem to hear the conversation between the two, and still walked calmly in front of him to lead the way.
Soon, he had already come to the door of the study in the backyard, Uncle Peng stopped, turned his head, and said with a smile: "Miss, uncle, the old man is waiting for you inside, you can go in by yourself." ”
"Uncle Peng, I'm sorry for your trouble," Mu Yanran smiled shallowly and said politely.
"Don't bother, this is what I should do, you guys go in first, don't let the old man wait for a long time," Uncle Peng's eyes flashed with a faint look of satisfaction, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly: "I'll leave first, Second Miss, they are still waiting for me to arrange." ”
After speaking, Uncle Peng turned around directly and walked towards the front yard.
When the footsteps gradually faded away, Mu Yanran and Chen Hao took a few steps forward, knocked on the door of the study gently, and said, "Grandpa, we are here." ”
"Come in," Old Man Mu's voice came from the study.
Waiting for Old Man Mu's consent, Mu Yanran directly pushed open the door and walked in with Chen Hao.
Entering the study, turning around and closing the door, the two of them walked inside.
At a glance, Old Man Mu was standing at the window, looking at the two people who came in with a shallow smile on his face, and then pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Yanran, Xiaohao, you sit first." ”
Chen Hao and Mu Yanran were not polite, and sat down directly.
Old Man Mu came to sit opposite the two, looked at Chen Hao and asked straight to the point: "Xiao Hao, I think you also know the reason why I called you over this time, take advantage of the fact that the Lin family kid hasn't come over yet, tell me what you think." ”
Although he was ready to hand over the matter of meeting Lin Yunzhi to Chen Hao and Mu Yanran, this matter was related to the Mu family after all, and Old Man Mu still hoped to have a number in his heart.
Chen Hao showed a hint of surprise, he didn't expect Old Man Mu to be so direct, but Chen Hao also reacted very quickly, sighed slightly, and slowly said the conjecture in his heart.
"Lin Yunzhi came to Mujia for two purposes, one is to test the real purpose of Mujia's operation, and the other is to hope to cooperate with Mujia. ”
"Just like I thought," Old Man Mu nodded with satisfaction, and asked with a smile, "Then what are you going to do?"
"It's very simple," Chen Hao's face showed a trace of confidence, and said indifferently: "If Lin Yunzhi wants to cooperate, I can completely agree to him, anyway, my purpose is also Ito Yuta, with the Lin family, it will be easier." ”
"Moreover, being able to use Yuta Ito to weaken the strength of the Lin family is beneficial and harmless to me. ”
"Then how are you going to explain the Mu family's sudden action?" The corners of Old Man Mu's mouth showed a hint of playfulness, and he looked at Chen Hao and asked slowly.
"Directly speaking, it's for Yuta Ito," a hint of vague disdain flashed in Chen Hao's eyes, and he naturally knew that Old Man Mu was testing Chen Hao by asking this, but he didn't hesitate, and said directly: "The Mu family, itself is not right with the Japanese, Lin Yunzhi will definitely believe this statement." ”
"If that's not enough, use the Black Tigers as a gap. ”
The latter words, Chen Hao did not say it, Old Man Mu and Lin Yunzhi must have known that behind the Black Tiger Gang was Zhao Yi, and the sudden demise of the Black Tiger Gang had a great relationship with Yuta Ito, or with the Japanese.
And behind Zhao Yi, it is the Mu family who is supporting, naturally the Mu family has an excuse to deal with Ito Yuta, if this reason is not enough to convince Lin Yunzhi, after all, Zhao Yi is just a distant relative of the Mu family, and there is no need for the Mu family to be so popular.
But if you add the first reason, with the hatred between the Mu family and the Japanese, it can be completely explained, not to mention, this time it was Yuta Ito who entered the Mu family's sphere of influence?
Old Man Mu naturally understood what Chen Hao meant, nodded without a trace, and said, "It seems that the Lin family's cannon fodder is decided." ”
