When Mu Qing spoke, his face changed slightly.

"Are you trying to tell us that this Mu Zhuang will not come out to see us?"

Xius smiled slightly and asked.

Mu Qing was obviously stunned, not understanding the identity of this man, but he still replied.

"Hmm. ”

"But why did you come to see us?"

Hughes asked rhetorically.

"Because I am from the Mu family. ”

Mu Qing said with a firm expression.

Xiusi was slightly stunned, and then asked again after a long time.

"Just because of that?"

Theseus had some doubts in his mind.

Mu Qing didn't look impatient because of the repeated questioning, but smiled at Xiusi.

"I know you will doubt my original intentions, to be honest, in fact, I was able to sit as a bookkeeper because of my father, my father is an old Mu family bookkeeper, which made me stand in this position through the relationship, this is a little ashamed, but what I want to say today is not this, but, if the second lady does not come today, I am afraid that the Mu family rudder in this curtain town is no longer the Mu family."

Mu Qing said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Xius looked at the man's expression in front of him repeatedly, but he didn't find the slightest flaw.

"How do you say this? Could it be that this Mu Zhuang wants to do the opposite?"

Xius asked unhurriedly at this moment.

"But?How dare he? Even if he has that heart, he won't? If you want to be in the rich iron production area of Yanlian Town, although it is not taken too seriously by the Western Xia Empire, but the Western Xia is very good at financial revenue is from here, no one can understand the meaning of the Western Xia regime, but because there is a lot of oil and water in it, this is the favorite place of these people in Mu Zhuang, they grow old and benefit from it, and the finances are no longer recorded in the family account books, but income." Therefore, even if he had this heart, he would not dare to rebel, but in this way, over time, this rudder would become a place where he would cover the sky with one hand, and the order of the chief rudder would be far away from the emperor of the sky. ”

Mu Qing's words were a little 'agitated', as if he had been suppressed in his heart for a long time these days.

Xiusi's expression changed slightly, but he understood what Mu Qing meant.

"Is your purpose today to explain to us that this is not possible, and how do we believe you? Why do you do this?"

A series of questions from Hughes were asked.

"Today's purpose is not to take the opportunity of the second miss to expose the behavior of Mu Shuang and others, but to keep this rudder for the Mu family, I didn't ask the second miss to believe me, the reason why I did this is just because I am a member of the Mu family, but unfortunately I didn't know that the second miss was here at first, so I snubbed the second miss, and it wasn't until I came to the account book of the Mu family village that I knew that the second miss was here. ”

Mu Qing looked at Xiusi and Mu 'Lu' and said.

Xiusi was a little Xiu at the moment, and his smile made Mu Qing very inexplicable.

Mu 'Lu' also didn't understand why Hughes was laughing.

"Aren't you afraid that once Mu Zhuang behaves until today, he will fight against you?"

Hughes asked again.

"If the second lady fails to rescue this rudder, then it means that this rudder has reached the end, as for me, I can't hide it, I haven't thought about the consequences, I'm just a person now, my father and mother have passed away a few years ago, and I have nothing to worry about. ”

Mu Qing couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly when he said this.

"Hehe, you go back first. ”

What do you think, Xiusi smiled, and said to Mu Qing like this.

Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, but he looked at Mu Lu, he didn't know what the identity of this man was, and he had been rushing to ask himself about the words of the second lady.

Mu 'Lu' also didn't understand what Xius wanted to do, and looked at Xiusi suspiciously.

Xius nodded slightly.

Although Mu 'Lu' still didn't understand, he said according to the meaning of Xiusi: "You go back first, you don't care about this matter for the time being." ”

Mu Qing obviously sighed helplessly, but he could only behave like this for the second miss's reaction, today he really didn't think about what would happen in the future when he knew that the second miss was coming, so he came to tell the second miss and the others about these things, but so far, it seems that the second miss doesn't believe in herself.

"Second Miss, this is the real account book of the Curtain Town that I have been keeping for the past few years, which is different from the account book of the 'Jiaodao' chief helm in the past few years. ”

Saying that, Mu Qing took out the basic folded bill from his brother's place and lowered it to Mu 'Lu', and then he left unwillingly.

Mu Qing came suddenly, which was something that no one expected.

"Theseus, why are you doing this? I think he was very sincere. ”

Mu 'Lu' saw Mu Qing leaving, but at this moment he asked puzzled.

"If I let him repeatedly 'meddle' in this matter, wouldn't it be to erase the loyal people of your Mu family, I am afraid that there are many people who can have this kind of person who is dedicated to the sake of the Mu family in a place like this, but I am just a personal conclusion that he is loyal to your Mu family, I do this because I want to see his sincerity and then observe the actions of the helmsman called Mu Zhuang, and the other is naturally what I said before, if he is sincere, he naturally does not want to involve him. ”

Xius said with a faint smile.

"I knew you weren't like that. ”

Seeing Xiusi explain like this, Mu 'Lu' couldn't help but smile and said.

"Hmph, what's the big deal. ”

Bailihan secretly splashed cold water.

Sure enough, as this Mu Qing said, this Mu Zhuang has not yet come, and now the Xiusi and the others have been waiting in the council hall for more than an hour.

However, there are a lot of people who come in and out to serve, and Xiusi shook their heads when they asked, even the deacon who originally appeared was gone at this moment.

"Hmph, I'm so angry, you dare to treat me like this, when I go to the family, I must let my father and sister take care of these rudders. ”

Mu 'Lu' was really impatient at the moment, and said angrily at the moment.

Seeing that Mu 'Lu' still couldn't bear his anger after all, Xiusi couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, are we still more anxious than them?"

"yes, why didn't I think of it, they should be in a hurry. ”

Mu 'Lu' was so little by Xius that he understood the stakes and woke up immediately.

"Subordinate Mu Zhuang visited the second lady, Mu Shuang is really guilty of missing the distance, please punish the second lady. ”

At this moment, I heard a low voice from the 'door' of the council hall again.

Hughes and the others looked at it, but they saw a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes who was extremely 'fat' and appeared at the entrance of the 'door', and at the same time at the entrance of the 'door', there was also the deacon who appeared more than an hour ago and some other important officials.

"You're the helmsman?"

Mu 'Lu' looked at it coldly at this moment and asked in a deep voice.

"If Miss Hui Er's words are true, her subordinates are exactly. ”

The middle-aged 'fat' man didn't look up, but he still whispered.

"It just so happens that you are all standing at the 'door' for me, and Miss Ben just has something to ask you. ”

Mu 'Lu' recalled the clothes of Mu Qing who appeared an hour ago, and compared them with the clothes of the few people in front of him, he couldn't help but be very annoyed, and said in a deep voice at the moment.

"This"

When Na Muzhuang heard this, he obviously hesitated.

"What's the matter? Could it be that you people are so face-raising Miss Ben today, and I am now asking you to stand at the 'door' but it is embarrassing for you?"

Mu Lu's face changed when he heard this, and he asked.

"No, don't dare, Second Miss, it's just that today's 'color' is not early, and a few of my subordinates think that Second Miss should not have eaten yet, so they specially prepared a meal for Second Miss and specially invited Second Miss to go. ”

Na Mu Zhuang said resignedly.

"I'm now..."

Mu 'Lu' was about to refuse angrily, but he heard Xiu Si make a 'look' at him, although Mu 'Lu' didn't understand Xiusi's intention, but he understood the meaning of Xiusi's 'color', and quickly changed his words.

"That's right, Miss Ben is hungry. ”

Seeing that Mu 'Lu' was actually looking at Xiusi's eyes, he agreed to his request, but at the moment, they secretly glanced at Xiusi, and secretly speculated in their hearts about the identity of this man.

"Mu Zhuang, you lead the way. ”

Mu 'Lu' said again at this time.

When Na Muzhuang heard this, he hurriedly responded, but there was a bit of 'gloom' between his faces, which was extremely imperceptible.

Xiusi's expression froze slightly, and then he sneered in his heart.

A few people followed Mu Zhuang to come, and they sat down at the moment, Mu Zhuang hurriedly beckoned this 'attendant' to pour wine for everyone, and he wanted to raise a glass at the moment, but at this moment Xiusi was the first to say: "The helmsman master, since we have all sat down at the table, then this meal is not in a hurry, we think why don't you take this opportunity to report the situation of the Mu family's rudder in the curtain town to the second lady by the way." ”

When Namu Zhuang saw Xiusi say this, his face couldn't help but condense slightly, and the wine glass he had just raised couldn't help but stagnate in the air.

"This, I'm afraid that talking about business at this dinner table will hinder the second lady's meal, so it's not too late to wait for the second lady to finish eating, and it's not too late to talk about it. ”

Mu Zhuang's heart turned, and he raised his glass again and said.

"I'm just afraid that this time I will be silenced by you, the helmsman, and we won't have time to listen to the helmsman's report in the future."

Xius was not in a hurry, as if intentionally or unintentionally, he picked up the small wine glass in his hand, looked at it carefully, and said.

When Na Mu Zhuang heard this, seeing Xiusi's actions, where would he not understand what Xiusi meant at the moment, his expression couldn't help but be stunned, and his heart chuckled, but he didn't show much on his face.

"Hehe, since the second miss has come to the town of the curtain of the city, then as the helmsman of the Mu family, I will naturally be hospitable, as long as the second miss is willing, I can summon my subordinates to report at any time. ”

Mu Zhuang still didn't say anything about it, and raised his glass to toast again.

"Why are you so long-winded, and you are still not satisfied with the report? Miss Ben would like to hear your report on the rudder of the Curtain Town now. ”

Mu 'Lu' was impatient at this moment, and when he saw Mu Zhuang acting in such a secretive way, his heart was on fire at the moment.

Mu Zhuang saw that Mu 'Lu' suddenly became angry, and his heart sank, but after all, he had been 'touching' and crawling for so many years, and he was still extremely quick to respond to this kind of scene.

I saw Mu Zhuang reluctantly smiled and said: "Hehe, the second lady is really young and promising, it is really the luck of our Mu family, the luck of the Mu family." ”

Mu Zhuang said with a haha, and at the same time said to one of the 'attendants' beside him: "Go and ask Mu Qing to come and report to the second lady about the current situation of the rudder." ”

"Who is Mu Qing?"

Although Xiu Si knew about Mu Qing a long time ago, he still pretended not to know and asked suspiciously.

Everyone also understood at the moment, and knew what Xiusi's 'desire' meant, but they saw that everyone's faces were calm as usual, and they were silent and 'lust', waiting for Mu Zhuang's reply.

"This Mu Zhuang is the account of our rudder in the town of Xianlian, and the account book that our rudder sends to the general rudder of Chaoge every year is managed by Mu Qing alone. ”

Mu Zhuang's words obviously showed that he didn't know that this Mu Qing had actually seen the second miss more than an hour ago.

"Oh, since he is the master of accounts, then this Mu Qing must also be a trustworthy figure of the helmsman?"

Xiusi looked at Mu Zhuang strangely and asked.

"I really don't have to say anything about this Mu Qing's personality, otherwise I wouldn't dare to let him manage the accounts, after all, there is only ' on top of this account. I can rest assured that I will not be able to make mistakes in the accounts so that the interests of the family will be damaged, speaking of this Mu Qing is actually a little pitiful, his father was originally the bookkeeper of our rudder, died of illness a few years ago, and then only Mu Qing was left alone, I saw that he was pitiful and a good person, that is, he was included as the bookkeeper of our rudder, fortunately, Mu Qing has been managing the accounts of the rudder in an orderly manner over the years. ”

When Mu Zhuang said this Mu Qing, he sighed again and again, and his words were full of praise for Mu Qing, but he didn't know that this Mu Qing was still stabbing him with a knife earlier, as for which of these two people was telling the truth, naturally we will see later.

It didn't take long for the 'waiter' to bring Mu Qing over.

Since the people sitting here are all important members of the curtain rudder, and Mu Qing, the bookkeeper, is not qualified to participate, Mu Qing saw the people sitting around the table, his face changed slightly, and when he saw the second lady, he was also slightly stunned.

"Mu Qing, this is the second miss of our Mu family, the second miss came to our curtain town this time is the blessing of our rudder in the curtain town, and now the second miss wants to know about the recent situation of our rudder of the rudder, you usually manage the rudder accounts, you are even clearer about the details than me, the helmsman, so you come to report the situation to the second lady. ”

When Mu Zhuang saw Mu Qing coming in, he didn't care about Mu Qing's expression change at the moment, but he pulled Mu Qing to introduce him.

Mu Qing looked at Xiusi at this moment, and when he saw Xiusi secretly shaking his head, Mu Qing understood it at that moment.

"Subordinate Mu Qing has seen Second Miss. ”

Mu Qing also pretended not to know Mu 'Lu' and the others at the moment.

"You are Mu Qing?"

Mu 'Lu' also pretended not to know and asked again.

"Second Miss Hui, the subordinate is Mu Qing. ”
