Chapter 317, A Secret Story
Having said that, but there was not much pity in Mu Jin's tone, Cijing and Guiyue were outsiders after all, so they couldn't ask more, a few people were silent for a moment, and Mu Jin spoke again: "Since the owner of the village is still in a coma, why don't you stay in the villa for a few days, what's the matter, wait for the owner to wake up, although I am now managing the villa, I can't call the shots." ”
Cijing pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
She looked up around the room and asked, "What about your young master?" ”
Hearing this, Mu Jin smiled bitterly: "I smiled, the young master, he lingered in the gambling house and has not come back yet." ”
"Your owner is seriously injured and dying, but the young master still has the leisure to gamble?" Ci Jing was surprised.
Mu Jin just smiled helplessly, and glanced at Guiyue, but Guiyue didn't seem to hear anything, and only cared about drinking tea by herself.
In the afternoon, it was raining again, and Mu Jin asked people to arrange the residence of Cijing and Guiyue, and arranged for two maids to take care of their daily life. At night, Cijing finally saw Mu Hao, but Mu Hao didn't recognize him, and even if Cijing had the same face as before, Mu Hao might not recognize him, because Mu Hao and Mu Jin quarreled, and Mu Hao went down the mountain angrily.
Cijing saw that Mu Jin sent two men in black to follow Mu Hao, Mu Jin stood under the eaves with an umbrella for a moment, then sighed again, and when he turned around, he smiled lightly and turned around and entered the house.
Cijing went to find Guiyue, and Guiyue said: "Mu Jin said that the person who assassinated the owner of the village was the son of the eldest lady Mu Yanran, and according to his age, he was still the nephew of the owner. ”
"So what? The position of the owner of the village may be Mu Yanran's, but it fell into the hands of others, so he escaped death as a son and came back to take revenge. ”
"There's no news out there?"
"Don't make a family ugly public."
Guiyue glanced at the mirror, and was not completely convinced by this reason, Qingnan Villa is not a small sect, and it is not far from the capital, the owner of the village is injured, how can they not let out any rumors?
Maybe the owner wasn't hurt at all?
Moreover, where did the boy who came back for revenge go after stabbing the owner?
Guiyue felt that this matter must be more complicated than it seems, but he and Cijing were outsiders, and he didn't want to get involved, so he said: "Let's deal with the matter quickly, I am afraid that something will happen if we stay for a long time." ”
Cijing nodded, "I know, but we can't see the owner now." ”
Mu Jin didn't accept the ancient sword and the letter, he said that he didn't dare to make decisions about these things, and he had to wait for the owner to wake up.
This housekeeper is very responsible, and he will not exceed the rules at all.
But both Guiyue and Cijing invariably felt that Mu Jin was not just a housekeeper, and Mu Hao's performance was too strange, right?
It was late at night, and she couldn't sleep listening to the sound of the rain, so she went out for a walk with an umbrella, and after walking a stone staircase, she saw the moonlight grass, emitting a soft white light in the darkness, surrounded by an ethereal mist, and there was a person standing next to the moonlight grass, he was wearing a blue coat, his hair was scattered, and he held a black bone umbrella in his hand.
Hearing the sound of the mirror coming from him, he turned around and smiled politely at her.
Ci Jing blessed his body and said, "Mu Gongzi likes this moonlight grass very much? ”
Mu Jin nodded, "It's beautiful, isn't it?" ”
Ci Jing snorted and asked, "You like moonlight plants not just because they are beautiful, but because they have something to do with someone, right?" ”
She said it casually, but Mu Jin stiffened for a moment and said with a smile: "Does Miss Ah Ci also have special feelings for something because of a person?" ”
When she introduced her to Mu Jin, she used her previous name, originally except in front of Dong Minglan, she was very resistant to this past name, but now she can calmly accept the past injuries.
Cijing rubbed the warm bracelet on his hand, smiled, and said, "Sort of." ”
The two fell silent again, and after a while, they said: "Actually, I also like moonlight grass very much, but I simply like its fragrance, so I won't come to see it in the rain at night like you, someone once told me that moonlight grass can make him a woman, he is a man, but he is in love with another man, so he is looking for moonlight grass everywhere." ”
A few green tendons burst out on the back of Mu Jin's hand holding the umbrella, Cijing glanced at him, and without saying any more, Mu Jin asked, "How is he now?" ”
"I don't know, I haven't heard from him for a long time."
Mu Jin smiled, "What a sad story." ”
"But I don't think," Ci Jing shook his head slightly, "he's brave, isn't he?" Who in the world can do what he did? If I were the man he loved, then I wouldn't care if he was a man or a woman, as long as I loved him, I would accept him. ”
"Even if you are spurned by the world?"
"Wouldn't it be nice to be afraid of being spurned, so let's go to a secluded mountain where no one is around?"
Mu Jin felt a trace of bitterness in her heart, and she held the umbrella handle in both hands and spun it around, spraying water everywhere, Mu Jin didn't care, and listened to her seriously: "I used to, probably care about these haves and not, I used to like a person very much, but his status is higher than mine, and there is a woman with the same status as him standing beside him, I want to rely on him, but on the other hand, I feel that I am not worthy of him, and I am retreating and advancing, so that I am not a person inside and out." ”
She sighed, "I almost missed him because I was afraid of this, but luckily, we were together again." ”
The night breeze with moisture hit Cijing's face, she stretched out her hand to wipe it, and the old god said slowly in a passerby's tone: "So, I think if you really want to love someone, you have to grab his hand quickly, don't let it go, not everyone is as lucky as me." ”
She turned her face slightly sideways and raised her eyebrows at Mu Jin, Mu Jin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled again, "That's what the girl said." ”
The two stood on the stone steps for a while, and Mu Jin said that it was cold at night to send her back, Cijing responded with a smile, and after walking a few steps, Cijing turned around and asked, "Who are you from Mu Hao?" ”
The smile in Mu Jin's peach blossom eyes faded a little, he narrowed his eyebrows, and said, "If I say that I am his father, do you believe me?" ”
Cijing obviously didn't believe it: "How can his father be so young as you?" Shouldn't his father be lying in bed?
Mu Jin smiled and stopped talking.
I slept too late this night, and the next day I wanted to lie in bed for a while, but the string of copper bells under the eaves was very strange, and I didn't hear it shake when there was wind at night, but at that point in the early morning, it began to tinkle, disturbing people's dreams, and the person who didn't get up was also tossed up with a belly of fire, she grabbed her hair, got up and changed her clothes, and put on a mask, and went out, a little maid stood outside, and the mirror pointed to the string of colored copper bells and asked: "Why doesn't that thing ring at night, but it's endless noise in the early morning?" ”
The little maid said in a thin voice: "Girl, this is the rule set by the owner, when it comes to the fifth watch, people will hang up the colored copper bells, if the soul of the eldest lady can hear this voice, it can be retrieved." ”
Cijing listened to it but got goosebumps, "Recruit ghosts to your home?" Shouldn't normal people all go to the soul and go fast? ”
The little girl smiled innocently: "This is what the owner ordered." ”
Cijing was wrapped in a coat, and saw that Guiyue, who lived next door, was sitting on the steps, holding a simple-shaped guqin in her hand, Cijing walked over and asked, "Where did you get this qin?" ”
"Do it yourself."
"When will you ......"
"Last night."
"You didn't sleep last night?"
Guiyue hummed and turned the piano over, but before it was wound, he asked, "Do you know what is the best way to make the strings?" ”
Cijing sat down beside him, raised his eyebrows and said, "Silk? Horsetail hair? ”
Guiyue hooked the corners of her mouth and smiled, did not answer, Cijing got up and left again, she didn't have so much patience to wait, last night she secretly rubbed the plan, first quietly asked where the owner lived, and then went to him and handed him the letter.
Cijing spent a morning wandering around Qingnan Villa, but he didn't find the owner's residence, but bumped into Mu Hao, who didn't recognize her, and only asked a maid: "Where is my father-in-law?" ”
Cijing froze in place.
She remembered Mu Jin's seemingly true sentence last night, "I am his father, do you believe it", she originally thought that Mu Jin looked no more than thirty years old, maybe he looked younger, but it should not be more than forty years old, and Mu Jin is also a guy in his early twenties, how could he be his father?
But what if Mu Hao is not Mu Jin's biological son?
However, Cijing scratched his hair, Mu Jin and Mu Hao did not look alike, but Mu Qiao and Mu Jin were a bit similar.
She was a little confused by the relationship, and a drop of water on the eaves suddenly fell into her neck, and she was agitated, and suddenly remembered that she had come to find the owner.
But what if the owner is Mu Jin? But in this case, why did he refuse to accept the ancient sword and the letter? Isn't he the one who went to Sun Longyou and said that he wanted to take back the ancient sword?
Cijing felt that his brain was really not enough.
Mu Hao saw her, snorted coldly, smiled at him, and shouted, "Young master." ”
Mu Hao still had a breath out of his nose, and looked at her angrily, "What's the matter?" ”
"Are you the owner's own son?"
Mu Hao looked at her with an idiotic look, she had just heard his father-in-law ask, she still asked this kind of question?
However, Mu Hao still replied: "No. ”
"That housekeeper Mu Jin's son is your father-in-law?" Ci Jing walked over a little more and asked.
Before Mu Hao could answer, Ci Jing's eyes were already a little more aggressive: "Then your father-in-law is the owner of the village?" ”
"But why did he lie to us that the owner had been stabbed?"
Mu Hao took two steps back and said, "That's his business, how do I know?" ”
"You're the real Mu family, right? And what about your own father?
"Porcelain girl!" ”
