Chapter 139: Who's Outstretched Hand
Several shopkeepers looked at each other when they heard this.
They wanted to get back the money, not the spirit, and they were not interested in sending the Mu family's family to prison.
What the hell does this make them do?
"Rest assured, all the shopkeepers, with my father's guarantee, this matter will never be relied upon." Mu Xiaofeng added softly, and indifferently glanced at Aunt Zhang, who was almost on the ground, "Moreover, the old lady is also listening here, Aunt Zhang will naturally not let you suffer losses in vain." ”
After repeated assurances, the wooden shopkeeper took the lead and agreed to let Aunt Zhang make the documents and press the handprint as evidence, which led to the mixed feelings and took the person out of the Mu Mansion.
The old lady thought about it, and she was in no mood to mention the matter of helping Yan or Shi again. She looked at Mu Tianda and said, "I'm tired, you all go back." ”
Mu Tianda naturally took the lead in standing up, "Then mother have a good rest, and I will come to see you later." ”
After he finished speaking, Mu Xiaofeng also saluted and left, and Aunt Zhang then prepared to leave.
"Aunt Zhang stayed."
In a word, Shengsheng intercepted Aunt Zhang, whose legs were weak, in Suxitang.
Xiu Muri encountered such a disturbing thing, Mu Tianda was also not in a good mood at the moment, and after leaving Suxi Hall, he asked Mu Xiaofeng to go back to her own yard first.
The next day, after the court meeting ended, Mu Tianda walked out of the main hall and walked to the square and was about to leave quickly, but a lazy and magnetic voice suddenly came from behind him, "Master Mu, I haven't congratulated you on finding a good son-in-law, so I would like to send congratulations here." ”
Mu Tianda's face froze, he stopped and slowly turned around, and saw Xia Xingshen, the right minister, walking towards him with a slight smile.
"Right is ridiculous." Mu Tianda was silent for a long time before he held back this extremely heart-stopping kind words.
Yesterday's events were enough for him to worry about, and he really didn't want to hear anything about that unscrupulous girl today.
But the elegant right minister in front of him didn't want to go as he wanted.
Mu Tianda was extremely depressed and entangled in his heart, when he heard Xia Xing's lazy voice drift into his ears again, "I heard that Mu Tianda's son-in-law is really a rare talent. ”
Xia Xingshen said this sincerely. But Mu Tianda heard it in his ears, and he felt very harsh. In short, after yesterday's events, he now feels full of off-string sounds when he listens to everything.
This off-string sound is still absolutely not a good word.
He raised his head, and met Xia Xingshen's slightly curved eyebrows, with a lazy smile on his face, and his eyes were meaningful.
Mu Tianda's heart sudden, and he suddenly bent down to slap him, and said sincerely, "Please advise the right minister." ”
"Don't dare to advise." Xia Xingshen had an easy-going attitude, but his eyes clearly told Mu Tianda that he had a secret, and it was a secret about Yan or Shi.
Mu Tianda saw his eyes, his heart was stunned, and then he said, "The green bamboo season in my house is just right, I wonder if the right minister is interested in going down to watch it?" ”
Xia Xingshen smiled, and when he looked at him with beautiful eyes, he showed a little interest.
Mu Tianda immediately understood, and gently made a gesture of invitation, "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, and it's better to go with me?" ”
Xia Xingshen nodded, "Master Mu said it well, I heard that Mrs. Zun is sick, and Xia, as a junior, should go to visit one or two." ”
After he finished speaking, he had already taken the lead and walked outside the palace gate.
Mu Tianda was stunned in place, and he couldn't get back to Xia Xingshen's sentence just now that he suddenly called himself a "junior".
The two went to Mufu, and Xia Xingshen naturally offered gifts to express his intention to visit, and then followed Mu Tianda to his Yazhu Courtyard to "appreciate the green bamboo at the right time".
In fact, in the name of appreciating bamboo, it is true to go directly to Mu Tianda's study for a secret talk.
I don't know what the two talked about in the study, in short, after Xia Xingshen left, Mu Tianda's face became very ugly.
There are still angry words in his mouth, "It's just unreasonable, any kind deeds are all mirages piled up with lies!" ”
The maple grove dwells in a pavilion with cornices into the trees.
"Miss, the right minister sent a gift to visit Madame."
Mu Xiaofeng looked up at Qing Ruo, and a streamer flashed in his eyes, turning a faint strange color, but his reaction was quite flat, "Oh, he has a heart." ”
Qingruo choked, what is Miss's reaction?
"It is said that the right minister and the master sat in the study of Yazhuyuan for more than an hour."
Mu Xiaofeng nodded to indicate that he knew, "So he gave a gift by the way." "Xia Xingshen and her father are courtiers in the same court, and it is normal to have official discussions.
After thinking about it, she looked sideways at the quiet girl on the other side, "Red Shadow, reveal those rumors to Daddy." ”
In this life, Yan or Shi never wants to use Mufu as a springboard to set foot on Qingyun Road.
Red Shadow respectfully agreed, and then went down to make arrangements.
It didn't take long for Red Shadow to report to her that the old man's reaction was flat and he didn't seem to care much about the rumors.
His father's unexpectedly cold reaction made Mu Xiaofeng very strange, "This can only show that Daddy already knew these things before." ”
She propped her chin and pondered.
Who the hell revealed it to her father before her?
After thinking about it, Mu Xiaofeng suddenly remembered something.
She felt an inexplicable abrupt in her heart, secretly surprised and suspicious at the same time, "If it's really him, why did he do this?" ”
It's like being ahead of her again, doing what she wants to do and what she has arranged earlier.
"Woo me? What about the purpose? What about motivation? The girl's eyes became serious, she didn't believe that there would be people in this world who would be good to you for no reason.
Unless it is the biological parents, and even the biological parents may not be able to be unconditionally good to their children.
If Mu Xiaofeng wants to confirm the suspicions in her heart, it is naturally very easy, as long as she takes a few words from her father's mouth.
However, she was more alarming about why the man did it once or twice.
Mu Xiaofeng hadn't guessed Xia Xingshen's intentions yet, but another thing had already been done. It was Mu Mingyue who pretended to be difficult to arouse Mu Tianda's pity, and then combined with Yan or Shi's various good comments, and then used the old lady to let Mu Tianda take the initiative to voluntarily seek an official position for Yan or Shi.
Under Mu Xiaofeng's covert sabotage, there was no drama at all.
And Aunt Zhang didn't do this, and she was forced to pay a debt by the five shopkeepers that day, so she didn't dare to contact Mu Mingyue recently.
And recently being pressed by the five shopkeepers, Aunt Zhang is already hesitating about whether to take a risk.
She hesitated and hesitated, until Mu Xiaofeng's patience was exhausted.
"Red Shadow, help her and let her make a decision as soon as possible."
Don't be forced into a desperate situation, Aunt Zhang is afraid that she will have to continue to hesitate. Mu Xiaofeng flipped through the account book that Hongying had just brought over, without raising his head, his eyes were still staring at the thick account book on the limestone table, and he gave an order directly.
Rabbits bite when they are in a hurry, not to mention that Aunt Zhang is not a rabbit, and she is by no means a good person. was forced by the five shopkeepers to be in a hurry, and among the two ways of sending her to the yamen to see an official without compensation, she naturally chose the former.
After all, I hope there is still a little possibility, and no one wants to go to prison.
On this day, it was Mu Tianda's day of rest, and he used to go to Suxi Hall to talk to the old lady if he had nothing to do after breakfast.
Before Mu Xiaofeng went to Suxi Hall, he first sent someone to Piaoxue Pavilion to invite Aunt Zhang to Suxi Hall.
"I've seen the old lady, I've seen my father." Entering the side hall, Mu Xiaofeng first saluted in a proper manner, and then sat down at the head of Mu Tianda.
"While everyone is here today, I have something to say."
As soon as the old lady heard her tone, her heart began to feel uncomfortable. Every time this girl comes to Sukido, it must be no good.
She subconsciously frowned, glanced at Mu Xiaofeng lukewarmly, and said, "If it's not something important, don't talk about it here." ”
The implication is that since you have taken over the power of the family, don't use any trivial things to disturb everyone's mood.
Mu Xiaofeng completely ignored her cold face, but looked up at Aunt Zhang first, and then nodded towards the door.
Red Shadow brought in a stack of books, placed them on a low table beside her, and respectfully retreated to her side.
Mu Xiaofeng said, "Old lady, what I want to say here today is related to the foundation of our Mufu, even if I am reluctant to take charge of the family business, I dare not take such a heavy responsibility alone." ”
"Xiaoxiao, don't worry, there is a daddy." Mu Tianda turned his head and cheered her up gently at the right time.
The girl smiled slightly, her expression moved, "Thank you, Daddy." ”
If she wasn't sure that her father would stand on her side unconditionally and support her, she wouldn't have deliberately chosen to shake this out on his day off today.
When Aunt Zhang heard her words "related to the foundation of our Mufu", her heart was so nervous that she was fluttering.
But after thinking about it, I felt that she was scaring herself.
Rough account books, this cheap girl may still be able to see the flaws, she can do a perfect job in the accounts of other account books, with this milky little girl, she must not see anything to see, she can't show the signs of cowardice herself.
After hinting several times, Aunt Zhang finally felt settled.
Mu Xiaofeng didn't look at her at all, he just took the account book and flipped through it to make a look. Then he raised his head and looked at the old lady with a solemn face, "Old lady, after my recent audit, I learned that the deficit in our house is very serious. ”
The old lady's eyelids were slightly raised, and her expression did not fluctuate much, and it was obvious that she was purely alarmist in what she said.
She said unhurriedly, "Since you have found out, let's talk to everyone here, what is a serious law." ”
Don't believe her? Think she's made it up out of thin air?
The girl sneered in her heart, her face respectful and rigorous, "The properties in our house, including the field shops and the various valuable collections in the cash and treasury, have been checked one by one recently, and I have found that they are basically empty. ”
The old lady raised her eyebrows, and a cold light burst out of her eyelids, shooting at the girl's calm face.
Mu Xiaofeng was not affected by her cold eyes in the slightest, and continued to flip through the account books while saying, "Right now, there are only a few shops left in our house, and those few industrial incomes can only barely sustain our current life. ”
