Chapter 68
In the Marquis Mansion of Wu'an in the capital, a handsome middle-aged man angrily smashed the teacup in his hand out: "Waste, it's all a bunch of waste, I can't even bring a child back, what's the use of me raising you." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
The little guy who was hit didn't dare to check the wound on his forehead, so he stepped forward to change a teacup in a panic.
"Please calm your anger." A handsome young man standing on the other side stood unmoved in front of the desk, as if he didn't see the man being angry, and said indifferently: "And you really can't blame the people below for this." ”
"Li Sui, you have followed me for so many years, and I believe that your ability will not be unable to do even this little thing." Wu'an Hou Li Xiang sat upright on the chair in a dark blue plain brocade forging robe, with an impatient face, and the ruthlessness hidden in the depths of his eyes flashed: "What the hell is going on, why can't I see that child until now." ”
"Master Hou, when we arrived in Nanshan Village, the target family was no longer in Nanshan Village, after investigation by his subordinates, it seemed that Chu Lou received a task to attack the target family, but for some reason the final mission failed, and the top killers of Chu Lou were almost wiped out, so the owner of Chu Lou has issued a hunt and kill order." Li Sui paused, and said with some hesitation: "According to the report of the spies, the forest steward beside Madame has been in and out of Chu Lou's stronghold in the capital, and traces of the forest steward have also been found in Ping'an County. ”
"Madame, you say?" Wu Anhou seemed a little surprised, and then looked at Li Sui with an angry face: "Didn't you say that you can't reveal this matter to anyone, and where did Madam know about it?" ”
"I don't know about this subordinate, but in addition to Madame, there is another party guarding the target task, and it seems that the failure of the Chu Lou chase order is also because of that side of the people, and our people have been cleared out several times, and they can't get close to Nanshan Village at all, so they haven't been able to succeed." Li Sui recounted with a flat face.
"Are there any other centaurs?" Wu Anhou restrained the anger on his face, knocked on the desk again and again with one finger, and his eyes were full of deep thought: "I don't know if it is all the way with the people who have come to trouble my Hou Mansion recently." ”
"The subordinates are incompetent, and they can't find the way." Li Sui frowned, it took several months of effort for the people under him to find out where the people came from, and the most important thing was that there were only a few people on the other side, but they had lost many of his good hands.
"Hmph, it seems that my Wu'an Hou Mansion has been really too low-key in recent years, and anyone dares to provoke my Hou Mansion casually, is it really easy for me to bully my Wu'an Hou Mansion." Wu Anhou's face sank, the new teacup in his hand suddenly shattered, and the warm tea trickled down his palm.
The little guy who was waiting on the side shrank his body in an inconspicuous place as much as possible in a panic, for fear that he would accidentally obstruct the eyes of the Hou Ye and be taken out of anger, Li Suizi knew his master's moody temperament, and turned his head to signal the little guy to go out first.
"Whatever method you use, bring that child back to me in a month." Wu Anhou shook his hand, took out his handkerchief and wiped his hands carefully: "As for the tail, dispose of it." ”
"Master Hou, if the tail is processed and the target's emotions rebound, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble." Li Sui said bluntly.
"Hmph, what kind of insight can come out of the poor countryside, if he still has nostalgia, it means that the things given are not enough, when enough wealth is placed in front of him, those shabby feelings are just a passing cloud." Wu'anhou snorted coldly, and said with some disdain, not to mention the blood nature, he didn't believe that the child was willing to give up his Wu'anhou mansion's wealth: "The child is forgetful, when the time comes, he will have so many people to accompany him, and then take him to enjoy those rich and prosperous days, and he doesn't want to want those poor and sour days anymore." ”
"Yes, my subordinates obey." Li Sui's eyes darkened and he didn't say anything, and retreated after saluting respectfully, but he didn't agree with Wu Anhou's judgment, as far as he could see, although the child was poor, he didn't seem to be the kind of person with shallow eyelids, and he was afraid that disaster would be buried in the future if he was so ruthless, but since Hou Ye had made a decision, he had to obey orders to act, but it was a pity for the family.
"Who will be against my Wu'an Hou Mansion, and where did that vulgar woman know." Wu Anhou closed his eyes and leaned back against his chair, recalling the woman who could only be regarded as a fair-eyed woman many years ago.
More than ten years ago, when he was not Wu'an Hou, he suddenly fell seriously ill and fell unconscious, and the imperial doctors in the palace sentenced him to death, or his mother did not give up and begged the abbot of Dade to save his life, when the abbot of Dade divined a hexagram for him Only Chong Xi could save his life, and this Chong Xi person could only be a destined person, that is, Qin Yunxiang, who was a fire girl in his kitchen at that time, even though Mrs. Wu'an Hou at that time had too much dislike about Qin Yunxiang's identity, but she was eager to save her child, and she still let the two of them hastily worship in accordance with the instructions of Dade Abbot, Qin Yunxiang was weak and didn't dare to resist, not to mention that she was originally a subordinate of the Marquis of Wu'an, Qin Yunxiang agreed to Chongxi as long as she had her deed of sale.
It's also strange to say, since the two became relatives, under the care of Qin Yunxiang, his body has gradually improved, and a year later it is completely better, at the beginning he still had some affection for Qin Yunxiang because of Qin Yunxiang's meticulous care, but Qin Yunxiang's status is low and illiterate, and her temperament is soft and cowardly, and she is gradually tired of it, so she naturally no longer pleases him, and it was also at that time that he happened to meet the eldest lady of the Shangshu family in the Ministry of Officials. However, the Wu'an Hou Mansion is not something that Qin Yunxiang can resist as a weak woman, and being his Wu'an Hou's concubine is not known how many times stronger than the head lady of the ordinary people, let alone the hard life in the countryside, who knows that the woman disdainfully disdained and just wanted to leave after begging for death, and the most important thing is that she actually concealed such a big thing as everyone having his heir, it is really damned, if it weren't for the fact that he heard the subordinates who served her before mention it by chance, his Li family almost broke the bloodline.
The summer sun was warm and brilliant, shining through the wide open window directly into the study, projecting on Wu Anhou's face like a layer of gold, and the already handsome face became more refined, if the Meng family was here, they would be able to find that the appearance was somewhat similar to Meng Qingxuan. If that woman who doesn't know what to do dares to marry another man with his heirs, then don't blame him for being ruthless.
The Meng family, who are far away in Nanshan Village, except for Chen Mu, are still ignorant of everything that happened, what happened during the Lantern Festival seems to have left them, and they can't imagine that anyone wants to harm them, the peach trees transplanted in the yard have already borne fruit, Meng Qingxuan's vegetable garden is full of vitality, and Meng Qingyao's chicken flock has expanded again, and every day is dull and fulfilling.
"Do you think it's time for you to give up your position?" Meng Qingyao pouted and sat on the small bench with an unhappy face and watched Chen Mu occupy her recliner, which was obviously made for her by her father, but she hadn't touched it since she made it, and it was already her temper that she could still live peacefully with this person now.
"Tea." The leafy peach trees blocked most of the sunlight, Chen Mu lay lazily on the recliner and half-squinted, glanced at the little girl with a depressed face drowsily, beckoned and said lazily.
"If you take my place and want me to serve you, are you stupid for me." Meng Qingyao's eyes moved with the movements of Chen Mu's hands, Chen Mu was particularly seductive in terms of figure and hands, and automatically replaced the disobedient face with the male god in his previous life, and suddenly laughed stupidly: "What kind of tea do you want, black tea, green tea, flower tea or milk tea." “
"What do you think, laughing so obscenely." Chen Mu saw the little girl's eyes and knew that the girl didn't know where she wanted to go, so she flicked the little girl's forehead hard, and asked angrily.
"You're lewd, your whole family is lewd." Meng Qingyao covered her forehead, her eyes were red with pain: "Do you know what it means to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, it hurts to death, don't you know how to lighten it." “
"Then are you incense or jade?" Chen Mu saw that the little girl's forehead was red, her eyes were full of tears, her eyes were dark, she didn't use much strength, why did this girl hurt like this, and she rubbed her with her fingertips apologetically.
"Chen Mu, I think it is necessary to solemnly remind you, I am a girl, and I am still a fragile little girl, please care for me more." Meng Qingyao was depressed and wanted to scratch the wall: "Aren't you afraid that I will have a psychological shadow." “
Chen Mu hugged the little girl to his lap, picked a peach from the tree and handed it to the little girl: "What kind of shadow can you have with your heartless appearance." “
"I'm still young, if I grew up in a loveless environment, I would be cranky and become withdrawn." Meng Qingyao lay on Chen Mu and touched it, took out the dagger he hid in his arms and peeled the peach skin seriously, not Meng Qingyao boasted, she had practiced the kung fu of peeling with one hand in her previous life, and the peeled skin was not only thin but also continuous: "To tell the truth, your dagger is really easy to use, and the peeling is fast and good." ”
“。。” Since she was inadvertently used as a fruit knife by this girl once, this girl is still addicted, turned her head and squeezed her fist, she really couldn't bear to watch the little girl treat her baby dagger roughly.
Xiao Wu's jaw that was hidden in the dark was about to fall to the ground, and he watched Meng Qingyao do something wrong with his master with a shocked face, and finally took out his master's valuable dagger as a fruit knife, the last time he heard Xiao Si say it, he laughed and said that it is absolutely impossible, this dagger is regarded as a treasure by the master, but after he got it, he was even rejected by the one who wanted to see it, and now he used it so casually, Xiao Wu's mind became active, It seems that he has to reassess the status of the Meng family in the heart of his master.
Meng Qingyao divided the peach into two halves and handed half to Chen Mu, the peach was crisp and a little raw, but the sweet and sour taste was just right for Meng Qingyao's appetite, Chen Mu frowned, he preferred the kind of juicy and thick peach, and put it aside with some disgust.
"I really don't understand you, it's clear that hard peaches taste like soft peaches." Meng Qingyao shrugged her shoulders and held the peach and nibbled on it contentedly.
"Qingxuan said that he would go for a picnic tomorrow?" Chen Mu didn't argue with the little girl, and hurriedly changed the topic.
"Well, let's go to Nanshan barbecue tomorrow, and it's just time to be homesick." Meng Qingyao nodded, she finally drew a barbecue grill that Meng Qingxuan could understand, a few days ago, she took Meng Qingxuan to the county blacksmith shop to create a complete set of barbecue utensils, and now Meng Qingxuan is going to get the goods, if it weren't for Chen Mu here, how could they use such twists and turns, just use the space as a means of transportation, thinking about it and glancing at Chen Mu sadly.
"Ahem." Chen Mu was uncomfortably moved by the little girl's eyes, cleared his throat and asked, "Everything is ready." ”
"I've been ready for a long time, and it's your turn to ask." Meng Qingyao wiped her slimy little hand stained with peach juice on the corner of Chen Muyi: "I'll go and see how the chickens are doing, you take care of the house." ”
Meng Qingyao looked at the sky and saw that it was almost time to change An Zhu, climbed down from Chen Mu's body with a smoke, and waved her hand: "You boil the water to cool down first, and then the chickens will come back and ask for water." ”
"Got it." Chen Mu waved his hand and lay down again, waiting for Meng Qingyao to disappear before saying, "Didn't you hear, go and boil the water." ”
"Yes." Xiao Wu responded.
It seems to be quite interesting to raise a daughter, looking at the place where Meng Qingyao was wrinkled, Chen Mu laughed lowly. (To be continued.) )
