Chapter 65: Father-Son Dialogue
Half a month has passed since Mu Tong was injured, and Han Shan was conferred the head.
Mu Tong, whose temperament had changed greatly, only learned about the content of the notice of Han Shan's head and the city lord's mansion after returning to the house that day, although he was a little surprised, he didn't care at all. Recuperated with peace of mind, and was silent about Mo Qingyan's injury to himself, no matter how Mu Mu Wang and several aunts pressed him, he didn't reveal the slightest rumor, and all of them took care of him and brought up this topic.
Until half a month later.
Mu Tong, who was already able to get out of bed and move freely, stood on the stairs outside the gate of Mu Mansion today, with Wei Shiyi and Mo Qing behind him.
The middle door of the Mu Mansion is now wide open, and the servants on both sides are waiting there with basins for washing their hands and faces.
Today is the day when Master Mu Muddy returns home, and Mrs. Mu, who received the letter early, got up early in the morning to discuss internal affairs. Not only did she let the people clean all the playthings that Master Mu liked, but even the study room that Moody used to put on a show was cleaned by her subordinates under her supervision.
In the kitchen, he began to prepare the dishes that Master Mu liked to eat.
The warm mountain ginseng stewed duck has been stewed in the casserole in the kitchen for four hours, just waiting for Master Mu to come home and start the banquet.
"Click. ”
A slowly approaching convoy appeared in everyone's sight with the sound of horses' hooves.
"It's coming, it's coming, the master is back!"
"Go and inform Madame. ”
A few little maids who were sent to wait for the letter shouted out of their minds, and the older ones directly ordered a younger maid behind them to report the news. It's not that she deliberately summoned or oppressed the little girl, but she was taking care of her, a newcomer. Because reporting can be rewarded by the lady, this is the practice of Mufu for many years.
Mu Tong was indifferent to the movement behind him, now he was as plain as water, standing indifferently on the steps, only the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, showing his joy at his father's return.
"Hahaha! My Mu Jialin'er actually came out to greet me in person, hahaha, the old man is so happy. Mu Zhong, reward! Those present will be rewarded with two months' monthly salaries, and those who are not present will be rewarded for one month. ”
"Yes, sir. ”
The housekeeper Mu Zhong reluctantly stepped forward. Alas, the Mu family's subordinates are rewarded more than their salaries every year, alas, think about the family's assets, why don't you buy a few pieces of land and build a house by yourself? But the family has a single lineage, and the sons and grandchildren are all together, so what's the use of building so many houses? Is it possible to live with those relatives in the family who can't beat the eight poles? It is not proper, the people's hearts are not enough, and others will not cherish the things they give for nothing, but they will not be able to give them in the future, and they will still attract resentment. It's better to wait until the evening when I go back to dinner, talk to my son, let him give birth to a few more grandchildren, it doesn't matter if he is male or female, anyway, our family has money.
Don't blame Mu Zhong for being inflated, just because every time Master Mu wants to reward someone, he will have a share, don't do it. However, his monthly salary is higher than those of the Mu family branch, and it can be said that he has the highest salary. It's almost as much as the usual money of a few partial ladies.
Of course, this can't be compared, the example money is the example money, when it is really used, the Mu family has never needed the use case money, it is all spent on the Mu family's accounts. The so-called routine money is just Moody's use for them to take care of their mother's family.
said that Muddy, happily took a few steps up the steps, grabbed Mu Tong's arm, and looked at Mu Tong left and right.
"Well, I'm getting more energetic. Not bad, yes, it looks much more mature and calm. Less of a scholar's Confucianism, more of a well, how to say it, by the way, is self-confidence. Good, good. Let's go, let's go home, don't make your mother wait. ”
The resolute Muddy pulled Mu Tong and strode into the gate of Mu's house, leaving a group of subordinates behind him to unload and count the goods outside the door.
"Father, wash your face first. ”
Mu Tong followed Moody into Mu Mansion, and spoke out when he passed in front of the few people who were carrying water. After all, it is not easy for this group of subordinates, just this basin of water, it has been served for nearly an hour, if you don't use it, it won't be a waste of their hard work.
"Okay, just tell me what happened to your injuries. Who in the end ate the bear's heart leopard gall and dared to poison my Mu family's lifeline in Black Dragon City. ”
"Mo Qingyan. ”
Master Mu, who was washing his hands, was stunned, this answer was indeed beyond his expectations.
Master Mu picked up a handful of water, threw it on his face fiercely, and then rubbed his somewhat stiff face vigorously. Only then did he take the towel of the next person to wipe the water stains off his face, and then turned around and walked towards the back house.
"If it's him, it's a little tricky. Originally, I had already settled the matter of a month ago this time. You wiped out the executor, so that the person behind the curtain was disgraced, and then I exerted my strength over there, and finally understood the matter. At least on the surface, he didn't dare to be so arrogant anymore. Someone pressed him. It's just that this Mo demon wants to do something. In the past few decades, my Mu family and he have been in the well and not in the river, and they have nothing to do with each other, why did they suddenly attack you this time?"
"The child doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know. Anyway, this surnamed Mo, his life, the child is going to be decided. ”
Since my son has this confidence, then I will not interfere. But remember, this person is deep and hidden, and it's not easy at all. Don't take it lightly. You must know that a few decades ago, this person almost sat in the high position of Mohai Kingdom. ”
Mu Tong's eyes shrank slightly when he heard this, and he was a little more vigilant in his heart.
Ginger is still old and spicy.
The father looked kind and grinning. But there's no ambiguity in looking at things. I'm still too young.
"Let's go, hurry up, first accompany your mother to dinner, and then go to the study to see what good things Dad has brought you. I was supposed to be able to come back half a month ago, but I wasted half a month of time for this thing, and my father specially asked for it. ”
Feeling his father's selfless care, Mu Tong felt a little guilty, but for the decision in his heart, Mu Tong showed a firm look.
Secretly determined: Those who stand in my way will be slaughtered.
"Dad, after the New Year, the child wants to go out for a walk, why don't you hand over the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce to me next year, and you can enjoy the happiness at home with your mother and a few aunts." ”
Moody, who was walking in front, was stunned for a moment, and looked back at him with an inquiring gaze.
"Why?"
"It's better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles. This time, the child suffers from eating to death, reading, and self-righteousness. If I look at all the states of life, I should be more precise and meticulous in my work, and strategize. ”
Moody thought about it, and then felt that Mu Tong was reasonable. So he nodded in response.
"Okay, I agree. Just go and talk to your fourth uncle. But where do you go to say your mother. I don't care. Otherwise, I'll sleep in the study. ”
"Well, it's good for Daddy to agree, Mother, the child will go by himself. ”
"Alas, you are talking in a crepe now, which makes Lao Tzu very unaccustomed. Sure enough, you're still the cuter you used to be. ”
"Yes, that disappointed my father, it was a child's. ”
"Yes, awkward. Father, it doesn't matter what path you choose. But since you have chosen, go on bravely. Even if you fill in the entire Mu family, it's not a big deal. Anyway, your sisters have already gotten married, and the third doesn't know where to go. As long as you are fine, I can toss your Mu family up and down. You can squander your family property. ”
"Thank you, father......"
