56. Self-supporting portals
Mo Yan is about forty years old, his face is very young, with slender eyes and a few beautiful beards, and when he is not smiling, he is majestic and intimidating. He wore an auspicious cloud-patterned blue brocade robe, sat on a high position with a bold sword, his right hand regularly twisted a string of uneven Buddha beads, and stared at Mo Cheng sweating profusely in the flower hall with half-closed eyes.
The entire flower hall was unusually quiet, Mo Chengyu drooped his eyelids, put his hands together on the general's belly, his sleeves were half-covered, and no one saw that his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
For a long time, just when Mo Cheng thought that Mo Yan had squinted and fell asleep, a deep voice suddenly sounded in the entire flower hall.
"Old Five, have you been dissatisfied with me all these years?" Mo Yan's eyes fell on his right hand, and he asked calmly as he watched the Buddha beads pass through his fingertips one by one, and finally brought the person's body temperature.
Mo Cheng's fingertips shook, the big cold sweat on his forehead slipped down diligently, he didn't say a word, and he was speculating in his heart about how much Mo Yan knew.
Without getting an answer, Mo Yan handed over the Buddha beads in his right hand to his left hand, and continued, "I don't want to say more, Old Five, tell me honestly, how much silver did you take out, and how much did you borrow outside and send it to Linlang Pavilion?" ”
Mo Cheng's mouth moved, his eyelids lifted, looking at Mo Yan's face without a smile, his heart sank, and what he wanted to say instantly sank to the bottom of the dark lake like a stone, and he still didn't say a word.
Mo Yan's brows furrowed slightly, he slowly got up, took a few steps in front of Mo Cheng, and sighed in his tone, "Old Five, you used to ...... Wasn't that the case before? Did anyone tell you anything? ”
Hearing this, Mo Cheng's pale little face flashed in his mind, and even he didn't know what kind of psychology he had, so he immediately asked, "Big brother, ten years have passed, how did Cousin Mo Hui's family die back then?" And Mofei, are you sure she was taken to the house of the lord of Dajing to live a good life? ”
As he spoke, he remembered Gu Fei's pair of legs that were not good for walking,
Mo Yan's face was gloomy in an instant, his slender eyes stared at Mo Cheng, and the unpredictable dark twilight under his eyes could swallow people in one bite, "Old Five!" ”
He snorted coldly, with an obvious fierceness, "You should know my rules!" ”
Mo Cheng remembered that Gu Fei had said that the death of his father and mother Mo Hui was inseparable from Mo Yan, which would make him look at Mo Yan without blinking, trying to see something from his pupils.
With a "snap", Mo Yan twisted the Buddha beads for a moment, and then slapped it fiercely on the case, and the Buddha beads collided with the case, making a piercing sound, "Bastard, you actually doubt me?" Suspicious of your big brother? ”
He snorted angrily, walked a few steps back and forth, and pointed at Mo Cheng angrily, "Old Five, let me tell you, what did I tell you ten years ago, I will still say the same thing ten years later, Mo Hui's death has nothing to do with my Mo Yan, Mo Fei was picked up by the old lady of the Dajing Mo family, and you also saw it in person, and now you suddenly remember to suspect me?" ”
Mo Cheng's eyes flickered, he looked at Mo Yan for a moment, slightly asided, and asked, "Since Mo Fei is favored by the old lady of the Dajing Mo family, why didn't our Yizhou Xiaomo family ascend to heaven like other families, ten years have passed, Mo Fei has also passed it, she has a talent for ink making, where will there be a reason not to mention the separation of the family." ”
Many years ago, he had this question, and he had always been able to use Mo Fei's young age as an excuse to convince himself, but this time, Mo Fei stood in front of him in person, that look, obviously fifteen years old, but thin like a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, where is it like a good life.
Mo Yan was silent, he put the Buddha beads on his wrist, put his hands behind his back, and looked out of the flower hall with an uncertain face, and after a long time, he spit out a sentence, "Old Five, it was all ten years ago, why do you bother to ask, some shouldn't you know." ”
Mo Cheng pursed his lips and said nothing, but there was coldness on his body, "Since the eldest brother said so, then the younger brother will not ask in the future." ”
Mo Yan felt a little comforted, his tone softened, and he nodded, "You sort out a list and come out, see how much silver you folded in Linlang Pavilion, it's best to get some ...... back."
However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mo Cheng coldly, "The eldest brother can work hard, this kind of thing naturally requires the eldest brother to come out in person, and the younger brother is still at ease to be a little shopkeeper." ”
After speaking, Mo Cheng picked up his robe and was about to walk out.
The little patience in Mo Yan's heart was exhausted, his slender eyes narrowed, and his beautiful beard trembled, "Stop, Old Five, you come back and speak to explain it!" ”
Mo Cheng didn't have the heart to say anything, he stopped, but he didn't even look back, "There's nothing I don't understand, if the eldest brother is not at ease, he can naturally transfer the younger brother to other counties, like the third brother and the fourth brother." ”
Mo Yan's body was shocked, and his eyes were faintly disappointed, "I see, so it is, the fifth child, you have always thought that the third child is overseas, and the fourth child is in Yunli Country, it is all my deliberate doing, and then I can control the Xiao Mo family?" ”
"Isn't it?" Mo Cheng turned his head to glance at Mo Yan, and the white-faced Sven smiled mockingly.
Mo Yan only felt that the Mo Cheng in front of him was really unfamiliar, for so many years, it was the first time he had this feeling, the former Mo Cheng, although he didn't say how much climate he could become, but he was always obedient, and he was willing to mention it.
But now, he just went to other counties and came back, why does Mo Cheng seem to have changed his personality......
His thoughts suddenly stopped, and he raised his eyes and said with great seriousness, "You told me before that there was something wrong with the upper family in other counties and prefectures and I needed to deal with it personally, but you also deliberately separated me from Yizhou?" ”
Seeing Mo Yan react, the mockery on Mo Cheng's lips became deeper and deeper, and the word on his upper lip moved, but he just smiled but didn't answer.
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Mo Yan's mind, and he looked at Mo Cheng with deep eyes, unable to distinguish between good and bad.
Mo Cheng simply turned around, with a posture of breaking the jar and falling, "I don't need to be ordered by my eldest brother to come, I will leave the state on my own in two or three days, no matter where I settle down, I don't have to worry about it, I will also be like the third brother and the fourth brother, and develop the power of the Xiaomo family......"
He was still babbling, at best, it was just like adding to the ink banquet, and if he really wanted to leave, he didn't have that preparation, but what did he think-
"It won't take two or three days," Mo Yan spoke, he propped his head with one hand, and there was a lot of tiredness between his eyebrows, "Just tomorrow, if you want to leave, you will leave tomorrow." ”
Suddenly, Mo Xiang was a duck who suddenly grabbed his neck and lifted up, his lips were open and he couldn't say a word, and there was an incredible surprise on his face.
Mo Yan lowered his eyes, and when he didn't see Mo Cheng's expression, he continued, "Fold it in the Linlang Pavilion and the silver you borrowed, I will give you the aftermath, and I will have someone prepare it for you tonight, southeast, northwest, four directions, you will tell me when you are decided......"
Speaking of this, he paused in his tone, and raised his eyes to look at Mo Cheng, "Since you have chosen the same path as the third and fourth children, then you should also know that in the future, the family will not give you any help, everything is only on your own, it is ...... Self-supporting portal ......"
