Chapter 152: Don't pull it down
Otherwise, according to the degree to which the second young master is obsessed with learning martial arts, it is impossible for him to suddenly come home by himself for no reason.
The old lady thought about it for a while, and was convinced by her speculation.
"Then you say, what should we do about this now?"
The old lady is weak and confused, after all, she just let the second young master's biological mother die unexpectedly last night, and today she suddenly has to face this grandson.
Mother Yao didn't dare to hold it up, and after thinking seriously for a while, she said cautiously, "Old lady, you are the same as the second young master, but you don't know what's going on outside. ”
Aunt Zhang's accidental death, since it was an accident, it was unpredictable.
Therefore, emotions such as weakness of heart should never appear on the old lady's face.
When the old lady heard this, she pondered for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "That's the reason." ”
Moreover, even if the second young master really suspected something in his heart, he didn't dare to show dissatisfaction and disrespect to her on the surface, she was his elder.
Thinking of this, the old lady's panic when she first heard that the second young master had come back had gradually calmed down.
After a while, the subordinates who ran errands back and forth to report to the second young master came to the old lady again.
"What's wrong?" When the old lady saw her face with sorrow, her heart suddenly felt a little unhappy, "Second young master, can you go back and rest?" ”
"Old lady, the second young master said that you are always considerate of him, because you love the younger generation, but he can't be pampered." The servant paused, and then said again, "He also said that he came to Sukido to talk to the old lady, and he also rested, and he was happy when he saw you, so he drove away any tiredness." ”
These words not only expressed Mu Yunqi's filial piety and admiration, but also complimented the old lady without a trace. Even the old lady, who had just hesitated and didn't know how to face him, would be filled with joy.
"The second young master is sensible, I didn't hurt him in vain." The old lady smiled and raised her hand, "You invite him to the side hall to talk." ”
Yao's mother respectfully agreed, "The second young master is indeed a heart. ”
After a while, Mu Yunqi slowly walked into the side hall in a dark green robe, his gaze first stopped on the large lotus screen, and then turned to the old woman sitting in the first circle of chairs.
"Yunqi knocks to see grandmother." As soon as he entered the side hall, he immediately knelt down on the spot with his robe and kowtowed to the old lady respectfully, "May grandmother be blessed and safe." ”
"Hurry up," the old lady was happy in her heart, looking at the cold young man who kowtowed to her seriously, the old man's face was immediately full of smiles, and she stretched out her hands to help him, "Yunqi, hurry up." ”
"Thank you, grandmother." Mu Yunqi tried his best to express his gratitude with excitement, and then stood up respectfully.
The old lady looked at him silently, and saw that he was cold and polite, although his demeanor was a little cold and unfamiliar, but his eyes were showing closeness to her, and her heart became more and more happy.
"Okay, just come back." The old lady smiled and hurriedly pointed to the side, "You sit down and talk." ”
"Yes, grandmother." Mu Yunqi replied seriously with a glance, and then turned around and sat down at the bottom of her.
The old lady knew that this child had a cold temperament, and when she saw him smile slightly excitedly, she felt more and more comforted in her heart.
This kid is really worthy of her love for him.
"Yunqi, why did you suddenly want to go home?" The old lady asked with concern, but in fact it implied temptation, after all, that incident was an irrevocable thorn between their ancestors and grandchildren, "Why didn't you send someone to send a letter back first, so that someone could pick you up?" ”
When Mu Yunqi heard her implicit reproach, he immediately stood up uneasily, and was about to reply, when he saw an ugly and anxious mother-in-law outside the door hurriedly walking over.
The mother-in-law naturally couldn't break into the house casually without passing on the gift, the old lady talked to Mu Yunqi, and quietly gave Yao's mother a look. Yao's mother hurriedly walked outside and asked the mother-in-law what she meant.
After a while, Yao's mother led the mother-in-law to the old lady with a sad face, "You tell the old lady the truth." ”
When the old lady saw her sad face, her heart chuckled, and then she turned her head to look at the mother-in-law below, "What's the matter?" ”
"Old lady, the maid of Piaoxue Pavilion just sent someone to report that Aunt Zhang had an accident."
Mu Yun got up and immediately stretched as straight as a pillar; The old lady was shocked, and immediately asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”
The woman hung her head, not daring to face the old lady's cold and spiking gaze, and hurriedly said, "They found that Aunt Zhang was missing this morning, and they went out to look for it, just now...... I found Aunt Zhang in the pond of the lotus pond, but found that Aunt Zhang had ...... It's out of breath. ”
The old lady's body shook, and the teacup in her hand immediately fell to the ground, making a crisp sound, "What?" ”
After the shock, the old lady then burst into tears with grief, "I told them to wait carefully for Aunt Zhang at night, especially recently Aunt Zhang's soul seizures have been frequent...... They're so ......."
Choked up, the old lady took the handkerchief handed over by Yao's mother and couldn't cry anymore, and she couldn't even say the words of reproach.
Mu Yunqi was shocked, and it took him a long time to react, he arched his hand to the old lady with red eyes, "Grandmother, please forgive my grandson for being unfilial, I want to go over and see Aunt Zhang in person." ”
The old lady closed her eyelashes, kept wiping her tears, waved her hand at him in grief when she heard this, and choked up, "You go." ”
Mu Yun got up and walked out of the Suxi Hall, and directly strode to the Drifting Snow Pavilion, when he saw Aunt Zhang, who was already stiff and her face was blue, the person who had always been cold couldn't help but roll down several lines of tears.
Just now, the old lady seemed to have no intention of hinting at him that Aunt Zhang was purely from a soul attack before she accidentally stumbled and fell into the lotus pond.
But this accident, Mu Yunqi felt very strange, but this would make him sad in his heart, and he really didn't have the energy to guess anything else.
After a while, he slowly remembered the letter he received from Mu Mingyue before, and then remembered that he was inexplicably entangled in the city last night, and today Aunt Zhang died suddenly and unexpectedly.
However, no matter what kind of accident Aunt Zhang's death was, Mu Yunqi felt that there was nowhere to vent his anger at the moment, in addition to the grief in his heart at the moment, he felt that there was a group of anger that had nowhere to vent was forcing him.
Seeing the people in the hall who were cowering in all directions, he stood up from Aunt Zhang's body and pulled out the long sword he carried with him.
With red eyes, his face swept towards the people like a fierce wind, his sword fell, and the screams in the hall suddenly rose one after another. After a while, even the subordinates who reacted later and began to scatter and flee did not escape the fate of becoming the soul of his sword.
"You, the waiter is not effective," he said, holding his long sword that was still dripping blood, pointing at the corpses that were lying all over the ground, and said coldly and ruthlessly, "all of them, damn it! ”
Not long after Mu Yunqi entered the Mu Mansion, the concierge received a special letter of worship.
If you say not according to the card rules out of the card, the day of the delivery of the post regardless of whether the host is free or not intended to receive, directly to the door, in addition to the famous people called "ghost sorrow" from the king Chu Lige, this capital is really no one can stand out.
I voted for a sticker an hour ago, at most I gave the host's family an hour to prepare, and then I swaggered to the door.
Chu Lige never seemed to know how to write the word low-key, and this time he came to Mufu to be more flamboyant than before.
Not only did he sit in his unique agarwood carriage, but he also prepared a large cart of gifts.
When Mu Xiaofeng saw the column of guards with the same expressionless faces as their master rushing in in Fenglin Residence, he had a headache or a headache.
Not to mention that Mu Tianda had already gone to the court at this hour, even Mu Tianda did not dare to stop the actions of this overlord of Chu in the mansion. As for the old lady? She was still worried about how to comfort the second young master Mu Yunqi in Suxi Hall.
This time, Chu Lige came, in addition to bringing a large number of high-grade red ginseng to nourish blood and qi, he also prepared a large cart of silk and satin.
Those who left the palace guards to carry the gift boxes took two quarters of an hour to complete the delivery.
Mu Xiaofeng sat weakly in the pavilion, watching the guards exit in a row, and then saw that the person seemed to be walking slowly with dazzling grace.
"See Your Highness" The girl stood up and walked outside the pavilion to greet him, and saluted not very sincerely, her pretty face that used to smile and smile directly showed Chu Lige a sad face.
Chu Lige bowed slightly at her, and walked directly into the octagonal pavilion.
Mu Xiaofeng secretly rolled his eyes, and could only silently endure his anti-guest. After he sat down in the best position in the pavilion, glanced over at the stone bench again, and signaled coldly, Mu Xiaofeng reluctantly sat down opposite him.
As soon as she sat down, Mu Xiaofeng looked at the face opposite that was full of grace and had no signs of popularity, and she couldn't help but resent.
She stared at his calm face and said very seriously, "Your Highness, Xiaobai has been fat and white recently, and I have been in good health recently. ”
So, what red ginseng soup that makes her smell sick, don't force her to drink it anymore, right?
Besides, she hasn't contributed blood to Yao Lao for nearly two or three months, and she really doesn't need to make up for it every day.
Chu Lige didn't speak, but his eyebrows were slightly raised as if he was a streamer, and a faint breeze flew over his eyebrows.
"It's really a blessing in the midst of blessings, and I don't know how to be blessed." A grunt suddenly came out quite inopportunely from behind the world-shattering man, and when Mu Xiaofeng heard this voice, he was immediately shocked and straightened up.
She looked up with wide eyes and looked behind him, only to see that the round face that she usually smiled and grinned had been replaced by a beautified uncle's face today.
"Yao Lao?" The girl called suspiciously, and her face changed completely, but she was familiar with the muttering voice just now, otherwise she wouldn't dare to test the name, "Why are you here?" ”
Chu Lige raised his eyes slightly, a faint strange color flashed under his eyes, and he seemed to gently nod to the middle-aged uncle dressed as a guard behind him.
The uncle with an unfamiliar face behind him took a few steps forward, glanced at Mu Xiaofeng with half-squinted eyes, and replied decently, "Miss Mu laughed, the master is here, and I am naturally here." ”
Mu Xiaofeng smiled, she did ask a stupid thing just now.
Yao Lao came in disguise, naturally because of Chu Lige, could it be because of her?
Oh no, isn't this old man unwilling to set foot in Mufu? Usually outside, I can't find out about him treating others.
Today, I suddenly came over unusually, could it be that the girl's eyes turned, and her bright eyes immediately showed two points of interest and three points of pride, and the corners of her mouth curled, and she smiled lightly with her eyebrows bent.
"I understand, it turns out that Your Excellency is here for this." The girl raised her wrist and shook it proudly, looking at Yao Lao, her eyes shining amazingly, "You can want this thing, but Your Excellency should understand that there is no free lunch in the world." ”
This girl dared to threaten him.
The corners of Yao Lao's mouth twitched, and he immediately snorted angrily and looked up at the sky, but then he was swept by the cold gaze from the corner of Chu Lige's eyes, and his heart was excited, and he hurriedly lowered his head slightly to make a respectful gesture.
In a moment of anger, he forgot that he was now pretending to be a guard.
Chu Lige raised his eyes, his gaze came lightly, and when he saw the girl's slightly smug appearance, his heart moved, and a dull pain in his chest immediately rose.
He hurriedly picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea to suppress the strange look in his heart, and the heat in his eyes seemed to be cooled by the slightly cold tea.
"My mother vomited blood yesterday and fell into a coma, and she has not woken up yet." Mu Xiaofeng's pretty face suddenly had a sad face, and those slight smugness just now immediately disappeared without a trace, "If you are willing to move to see her, I will contribute a little bit of human essence." ”
As she spoke, she cautiously stared at Yao Lao with an unfamiliar face, stretched out her sharp onion white fingers, and compared them in the air.
Meaning, if he was willing to see her mother, she could let him collect as much blood as her two fingers here.
She compared, and squinted her eyes with a resolute attitude, the implication is that she can only contribute so much at most, and if Yao Lao wants to collect more, she definitely disagrees.
Seeing her stingy and defensive appearance, Yao Lao was so angry that he wanted to blow his beard and stare at her, but as soon as his eyes rolled, he had to reluctantly nod at the girl.
Agree to this unequal transaction.
The look on his face was indignant, but in fact, he was secretly happy in his heart.
This girl will know that in the past few days, the king has banned him for the sake of her health, and he is not allowed to take a drop of blood from this girl for three months.
Today, he was able to follow with his face with a dead face, completely because of Zhao Ziyue's unconscious light.
Now this girl volunteered to let him collect blood from his two knuckles, and he has already made a lot of money.
You know, the indifferent and ruthless His Royal Highness Liwang next to him only promised to let him pick a knuckle at most before he came.
In order to collect the blood on her body as soon as possible, Yao Lao almost couldn't wait to say, "Miss Mu, you can move to see Lingtang now." ”
The attitude is too positive, which is not in line with the image of Yao Lao who is used to taking Qiao. Mu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows and immediately stared at him vigilantly, "Your Excellency doesn't have any bad intentions, right?" ”
Yao Lao was immediately stabbed in the heart by her suspicious and direct words.
He glared at the girl and said angrily, "Go and go, don't pull down." ”
