Chapter 217: The Huo Family's Suggestion
The brothers of the Huo family also got up and returned the salute. If Mu Tong had given the gift in his personal capacity, the Huo family brothers would not have returned the gift so solemnly. But Mu Tong brought the Mu family, which represents the Mu family, which cannot be rude.
Although the Huo family does not need to cling to the Mu family, the Mu family is also a big businessman all over the world, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a family, everyone is a nouveau riche, but the Mu family, the nouveau riche, broke out a little unreasonable, and the people are actually a family with inheritance, but it has just declined. It's not comparable to the Huo family, so the respect that should be given is a must.
Otherwise, the age of the three brothers of the Huo family, except for the third child, the age of the other two is more than enough to be Mu Tong's father. Why associate with his peers.
But Mu Tong's nephew is the same generation as Huo Lao'er's daughter, and the old man thinks that he is also a member of Moody's generation, and the three brothers of the Huo family can only be wronged and equal to Mu Tong.
But in real terms, Mu Tong is a golden branch and jade leaf, and the same generation as the three brothers really exalts them.
At least on the surface, the dwarf of the Huo family does not know how many people the Mu family has.
The two sides saluted and sat down again.
The boss of the Huo family spoke.
"Brother Mu, now this Lingguang City is surging, all because of you. The Huang family is still making a big deal to trouble you, I'm afraid they want to be ruthless to you!"
Mu Tong smiled bitterly and replied, "What Brother Huo said is that although I know the intentions of the Huang family, I have to accept it." I would like to think that my righteous brother and Miss Huang are in love, and for the sake of Miss Huang's face, the head of the Huang family will not be as familiar with him. I didn't expect him to be ruthless and threaten his brother's life. I'm in a dilemma right now. ”
Huo Laosan is younger than the two brothers, under the cover of the two brothers and his father, he has not been beaten by society, and his speech is a little out-of-the-box and brainless, and he opens his mouth to say something nonsense that makes Mu Tong change color.
"Brother Mu, do you think it could be that your brother-in-law and the Huang family acted together and tricked you into coming to your door?"
"Humph!"
"Stop talking!"
"Third brother, shut up!"
As soon as Huo Laosan's words came out, except for Mu Qiu, who was too young to express his position, Mo Qing snorted coldly to show his dissatisfaction. Old Man Huo and Boss Huo and Huo Lao Er spoke out one after another to stop Huo Laosan from talking nonsense.
Old man Huo even got up and apologized to Mu Tong, and said: "The old man has no way to teach his son, and I also invite Mu Xiaoge Haihan." ”
Mu Tong got up to avoid the old man's rudeness, and said politely: "The old man is serious." Third Brother Huo doesn't know my brother-in-law's personality, it's just random speculation, those who don't know are not guilty, but the younger brother hopes that the third brother will not say this kind of presumptuous speculation in the future, so as not to cause misunderstanding. ”
Although Mu Tong said it beautifully, there was nothing superficial in and out of his words: I won't pursue you Huo Laosan for talking nonsense, but you Huo Laosan don't frame others casually in the future, otherwise it's no wonder that I'm not emotional.
Except for Huo Laosan, who was still confused, no one else could hear the meaning of Mu Tong's words.
Seeing Mu Tong reveal the matter, except for Huo Laosan, the Huo family's father and son breathed a sigh of relief.
To put it bluntly, although the Huo family took in Mu Tong and the three of them with kindness, most of them were in the intention of repaying their kindness and befriending the Mu family.
There will always be a time when the wealth that relies on people's alms will collapse, and it is impossible for the Huo family to hang themselves on a tree if they want to develop. Being good friends with the Mu family is very conducive to the future development of the Huo family.
Therefore, Old Man Huo did not hesitate to offend the Huang family to help Mu Tong.
But this little bit of affection really can't compare to the life-saving grace of other people's hatred to Niuniu.
Even the eggs that the Huo family gave Mu Qiu to eat, Mu Tong returned them a hundred times, and they really didn't owe their own family.
Huo Laosan's words just now really made Mu Tong anxious, and it was not impossible to slap the table and leave.
When the time comes, don't say it's good to make friends, just don't become enemies.
Who is Mu Tong, what do you think Huo Laosan can worship with him?
What's more, Shao Wei was captured to save him Mu Tong from danger.
Even if Shao Wei and the Huang family conspired to plot against Mu Tong afterwards, it was not something that you, Huo Laosan, an outsider, could talk about.
At least the people's life-saving kindness to Mu Tong is still there, and before the facts are conclusive, even if there is this possibility, no one will bring it up. This is the exquisiteness and practice of the big family.
But as soon as Huo Laosan's words came out, it was equivalent to rubbing the Mu family's face on the ground.
Why? If you don't want to repay the life-saving grace, forget it, and blame the Rains to avoid your own danger?
Although Mu Tong didn't have this intention, Huo Laosan's words spread out and the Mu family wanted to act like this!
How can this keep the people here from looking ugly.
Fortunately, although Mu Tong was young, he could also see that Huo Laosan was a mallet, but the speaker was unintentional and didn't care about him.
Therefore, Huo Laoer directly dragged Huo Laosan out, and he didn't dare to leave him present to be embarrassed.
Mu Tong and Old Man Huo sat down again, put aside the embarrassment just now, and discussed the countermeasures against the Huang family again.
"Brother Mu, it's better to be like this. Nowadays, there are many people in Lingguang City, almost all of them are here for you. Although there are inevitably people harboring evil intentions, they are more here for the reward of the Sword Sect that day. It's better for you to blow up your identity, even if you can't save your brother-in-law, but at least you can be protected. Thinking that those people in the rivers and lakes will definitely not let the Huang family move you at all for the reward of the Heavenly Sword Sect. ”
Boss Huo wanted to alleviate the embarrassment caused by his younger brother, and immediately threw out a solution that was not a solution. made Mo Qing's eyes light up, but then shook his head and denied this method.
He knows best who his young master is. Although the young master still has many secrets that he doesn't know, there is no one else who knows the young master the most except for him Mo Qing. Neither the old lady nor the old lady.
Mu Tong really objected to this proposal as Mo Qing expected.
"No, I am a dignified seven-foot man, and I have not yet fallen to the point where I need to rely on a woman's prestige to save me. Besides, I don't plan to have anything to do with the daughter of the Heavenly Sword Sect Master. I'm going to marry her if she takes a fancy to me? In addition, if I expose myself, the people of the rivers and lakes will definitely fight for me for the reward. At that time, I will be dragged by the Jianghu people and unable to go to the Huang family, and my brother-in-law will definitely be put to death. This is inappropriate. ”
His own method was denied, and Boss Huo didn't care, after all, he only proposed this idea to distract Mu Tong from the scene just now. Adoption is not detrimental to him.
Old man Huo glanced at the boss appreciatively, and he deserved to be the boss who was comfortable among the children of the family.
The old man saw that Mu Tong was no longer at ease about what he had just done, and immediately put forward his own suggestion. "Brother Mu, it's not like this. While it's still early today, I'll ask the boss to take you out of town. Although my Huo family is not a big family, it is still possible to send someone out of Lingguang City. When the time comes, after you leave the city, I will release the rumors to explain your whereabouts, and turn the eyes of the people in Lingguang City and the attention of the Huang family to you. Maybe the Huang family will let him go when they see you get out and know that it is useless to threaten your brother-in-law with his life. After all, you also said that he has a relationship with Miss Huang. Maybe it can really solve his dilemma. ”
