309。 They are all born to a mother, so the difference has something to do with the father
"Mingluan doesn't understand this." Picking off the few tender leaves casually, three black lines fell on Qi Mingluan's forehead. It seems that many people have been talking about it recently, and they will say that she will marry in the future, is she so impatient. "As for what you said, father-in-law, Mingluan also doesn't understand much, my eldest brother has been very good to me since I was a child, no matter what his background is or what decisions he makes, he will always be my eldest brother Qi Mingluan."
"Actually, this king just wants to give the Qi family a psychological preparation, if you bring your stepmother directly to the door, maybe it will scare your grandmother and your father." Mu Tong walked around the two saplings and stretched out his hand, but he didn't know whether to put his arm on Qi Mingluan's shoulder or take her little hand.
"Cut, it may be that you are thinking too much and mistaking someone, father-in-law." In order not to save the face of this marquis who was not good to serve, Qi Mingluan took the initiative to hand over his little hand, calculating the time, it was time to send the four members of the Mu family out of the house.
"At the beginning, there was indeed a trade-off between Da Qiao and Shaocheng, except after seeing Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, I was really convinced that Da Qiao was indeed the elder brother in a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, naturally, after knowing Da Qiao's real age, the only person in the Qi Mansion who met was Shaocheng."
Getting Qi Mingluan's closeness, Mu Tong's heart was inexplicably a little happy, he never thought that the investigation of the Qi family on a whim would get a lot of unexpected news, found the origin and son of the Min family, and recognized the daughter of the Qi family as a righteous daughter, but the person he wanted to know the most was never found too much.
"That's what Brother Jian sent over for?" Even his own son has been used, who is not in the calculation of this Mu Tong, let Mu Jianping personally find out which is his half-brother, this kind of thing is only done by Mu Tong.
"Jian Ping doesn't know much, for his mother, what he knows is what he sued you, that child is too sincere, honest and not at all like a child born in the Hou Mansion, fortunately he is not the son of my Beihou, otherwise it won't take a year after I enter the earth, and all the Mu family's property will be lost by him."
The more he talked to Qi Mingluan, the more Mu Tong's humorous cells were developed one by one, including making fun of his own son again and again.
"That Brother Jian and the eldest brother can get along so well, so that the stepfather, do you think it is because the brother's bloodline in their bodies echoes each other? Tsk, it's good when they are born to the same mother, but father-in-law, you see, the eldest brother is a role model, elegant manners, high-minded, gentlemanly, gentle and polite, Brother Jian is a little worse, in terms of kung fu is not as good as my Da Qiao, in terms of character...... The matter of the ten ingas owed......"
"Yes, isn't it just ten ingots of gold, my father-in-law promised here, and I will definitely pay you back. When Mingluan comes to the post station to meet your stepmother, how about a thick meeting gift? ”
Mu Tong is really afraid of this Qi Mingluan, is it a crab, and he won't let go of the ten ingots of gold, every word is helping her eldest brother Qi Shaocheng, and he is saying that the various differences between the two half-brothers are actually the differences between his biological father, could it be that his dignified Beihou Mutong's genetics are not as good as Qi Houru who can only do business?
Well, whoever made Mu Jianping, the youngest son, really doesn't seem to have a strong point that can be displayed in front of others.
"If you don't pay it back, you won't pay it back, just when I, the righteous sister, gave Brother Jian the gift money when he got married." can occupy such a little upper hand in the battle of words, even if Mu Tong sees that he is a little girl and doesn't care about himself, just enjoy himself for a while.
"Just marry a Rongjin, where did you ask for so much gift money." Mu Tong's words can be regarded as making his position clear in front of Qi Mingluan, Xiao Mingluan is not right with the brothers and sisters of the Rong family, Mu Tong also knows that in order to get along with the Qi family in the future, it is necessary to have a good relationship with this important daughter of the Qi family. "Why don't you just treat these ten ingots of gold, how about Xiao Mingluan and my father-in-law buy a news?"
"Oh? Message? Is it worth ten ingots of gold? "Is there any gossip to listen to? Mu Tong has a network of secret agents, and he will definitely be able to get a lot of secret information, which immediately hooked the curiosity in Qi Mingluan's heart.
It's just that she was soon disappointed, Mu announced that she was Mo Lan who had already told her that the Rong family brothers and sisters were not the eldest princess Yu Yixin's biological sons, but she had to pretend to be surprised on her face to show Mu Tong, it was too boring.
A little guy came over, and asked Beihou and Fengluan County Lord to move to the dining room for lunch, Qi Mingluan inadvertently asked who there was, and the little guy said that there was only Mrs. Qi, the old man and the eldest young master, and no one else. This made Qi Mingluan have a thought, maybe a little radical, but since Mu Tong will do this sooner or later, it is better to break it earlier.
"That's right, that's right, since my father-in-law is well-informed, why don't you check for Mingluan, what kind of family is the Shen family who opened the bank?" After walking for a short time, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao were already waiting at the intersection, and then followed behind Qi Mingluan.
"The Shen family? This person is definitely not a big family, and I have never heard of it, but since it is Mingluan, you ask, and your father-in-law will go back and inquire for you. However, can the father-in-law know why Mingluan is interested in this Shen family? Mu Tong didn't shirk it, just a trivial matter, and by the way, he tried to tease Xiao Mingluan.
"It's nothing, it's just that I occasionally heard my mother mention that this Shen family wants to marry our Qi family's young lady." Regarding Mu Tong's expression when he asked, Qi Mingluan knew at a glance what purpose Mu Tong was asking, his eyes were full of teasing, so let's see who can tease whom.
Sure enough, Mu Tong's expression was obvious, and he must have been thinking in his mind that since Mrs. Qi could mention the Shen family's proposal in front of Qi Mingluan, it was likely that it was Mingluan who proposed marriage, and since Mu Tong had already regarded Xiao Mingluan as his own daughter, he would definitely find out the eight generations of the ancestors of the Shen family.
"Grandmother, daddy, big brother." Let Mu Tong misunderstand, just misunderstand, anyway, she just told the truth, her mother did say that the Shen family wanted to marry the Qi family, but she didn't tell Mu Tong who she was with, and she wanted whoever she wanted.
"Fourth sister!" Mu Jianping was still the one who couldn't sit still, and he ignored Grandpa Hou.
"Don't be so diligent, Brother Jian, the ten ingots of gold you owe are already considered the gift money I gave to Brother Jian and Sister-in-law Jian's wedding gift." Without Mu Tong to speak, Qi Mingluan was the first to not wait to see Mu Jianping, and even less after knowing that Mu Jianping and his eldest brother Qi Shaocheng were half-brothers.
"Mingluan, come to grandmother." Mrs. Qi was a little embarrassed, her little granddaughter's temperament was used to being flamboyant, and she was cute and helpless.
"Grandmother, just now Mingluan saw the two small apricot saplings sent by his father-in-law, and planted them in the flower garden, so that grandmother can see apricot blossoms in Qifu in the future." The plan was being implemented, and he trotted two steps to Mrs. Qi's side.
"Apricot trees? Speaking of which, there have never been apricot trees in the house, and my mother likes to see apricot blossoms? Why didn't you tell your son earlier that it was not difficult to move a few saplings, but it was the work of the marquis. Qi Houru got up and filled a glass of water and wine for Mu Tong, who had just taken a seat.
"Hey, I also heard Xiao Mingluan talk about it, and I knew that Mrs. Qi loves to appreciate apricot blossoms, and this time she only transplanted two plants, which is not as good as the one in the palace." Mu Tong didn't shirk either, and drank it all after touching a glass of wine with Qi Houru.
"It is also my father-in-law who said that my mother loves to appreciate flowers, especially apricot blossoms, but it can't be planted in the bitter cold of Muliang City." The hateful Mu Tong is really a difficult person to deal with, and he almost got around him with a word, looking at the way his grandmother looked at her, as if he had betrayed his grandmother's secret.
"Sister-in-law is not a Mu Liang person? Could it be that he is from the capital like his mother? In the entire Daewoo Dynasty, the apricot blossoms in the capital city of Huoyan City bloomed the best. "Qi Houru is definitely a good helper, and anyone can go further to the point.
Qi Mingluan squinted at Mu Tong a little triumphantly, this time, do you want to find an excuse to bring it, or do you just say it directly, now that you don't talk about it at this time, there is no more suitable and natural opportunity.
"Yes, after my condition got better, I can only remember that I have seen apricot blossoms all over the mountains, so during my stay in the capital, I have been looking for relatives or acquaintances." Mu Tong is clear, and the people who are here now are very suitable.
However, Mu Tongcheng's expression in his chest made Qi Mingluan very unconfident, what she ignored, what was not thoughtful, let Mu Tong tell this past, what else would be involved.
"But you have eyebrows? Although Brother Wei is a businessman, he has accumulated some contacts in the capital in the past few years, if it is useful, Brother Mu said. The second glass of wine was poured immediately, if Qi Houru really knew that Mrs. Beihou was his woman, I don't know if he could calm down.
"I did find some, I once worked as a personal maid for the daughter of an official family in an official family, followed the young lady to enjoy the flowers, and then became a wedding maid to marry Mu Liangcheng......" Mu Tong slowly started from the beginning, deliberately paused slightly, and looked at the change in Mrs. Qi's expression.
Because of this pause, Qi Mingluan's mind was buzzing, and she once again ignored such a crucial matter! If that Min family was his grandmother's personal maid, then the Min family also knew about what happened more than forty years ago, just like Aunt Qingxi!
Mu Tong can find out that the Min family is the person next to his grandmother, so maybe he has also found out that his grandmother's real origin is the youngest daughter of Sun Gelao, as well as the entangled relationship between the emperor Yu Yujue, the queen Sun Lian'er and her grandmother! That's not a good thing! Definitely not!
