Chapter 644: Old Ancestor

"Who?" I hurriedly asked.

Steward Mu was silent.

It cannot be said, it is not appropriate to say, it cannot be said.

But at some point, silence itself is the best testimony.

"I have one more question." I nodded slightly, "Grandma's child, what happened in the end?" ”

"Got rid of it." Steward Mu said.

"Hmm." I squinted.

"Don't get me wrong." Steward Mu said, "It's just that we are entrusted with someone to be sent to another place for foster care, and we will not be so cruel." ”

"But Grandma doesn't know, does she?" I said.

"That's right, the statement to the eldest and young grandmother is that the child died." Steward Mu said.

"That's why she's crazy?" I said.

"This ...... We weren't expecting it. Steward Mu said.

"Aren't you cruel when you kick a mad woman out of the house?" I said again.

"Actually, it's not a kick-out of the house, it's just that she moved to the outskirts of the town, and she still lives in the Mu family's house." Steward Mu said, "This is what the master meant...... New master. ”

"Okay, I see." I patted Steward Mu on the shoulder, "Uncle Zhen, take your leave." ”

After speaking, he glanced at Jiang You and turned to leave.

"Wait." Steward Mu hurriedly said, "What do you want to do?" ”

"You can rest assured." I said, "I just want to figure out what's going on, and I don't necessarily have to do something." ”

"Figured out?" Steward Mu said, "Young man, haven't you heard an old saying - it's rare to be confused? ”

"There is only one kind of good confusion, and that is to pretend to be confused." I said, "How can you start to get confused if you haven't understood it yet?" ”

"I hope you know what to be confused about and what not to be confused." Steward Mu sighed, and the whole person was left in the shadows.

I left the little dark room.

left together, in addition to Jiang You, there was also You Da.

You Da wanted to leave, but I stopped him.

"Great." Since Steward Mu doesn't speak, I naturally have to find someone who is willing to speak.

"The little ones are here." You Avenue.

"Let me ask you, how old is your master, that is, Mu Yuansheng, this year?" I said.

"This ...... Seven out of twenty. "You Avenue.

"It's not too small, but have you ever been married?" I asked.

"Nope." You Avenue.

"Why?" I asked.

If you are a person in the rivers and lakes, it is normal not to marry at the age of thirty or forty, but for ordinary people, this age is a bit too old.

"Hey, hey, hey." You laughed wickedly.

I threw him a penalty.

"Actually, you just can't have children." You Da lowered his voice and said, "The second young master liked to visit the kiln when he was young, and he accidentally fell ill, and he couldn't cure it well, so he simply didn't marry, saying that it was so as not to have one more person to take care of himself." ”

"Can't have children?" I thoughtfully said, "Well...... Is it not good for him to divide the family property? ”

"It's not just bad." You Dadao, "According to the family rules of the Mu family, children and grandchildren who have no heirs will be given at most a little silver tael when they divide the family, and the industry will not have a single hair." ”

"Without industry, no matter how much silver there is, it will be empty." I continued, "What's more, someone is a lazy and profligate loser......"

"If the two brothers don't have offspring, that's a matter of flattening." Jiang You followed my train of thought and said, "But the wife of the dead eldest brother is pregnant, and the father also admitted the child!" ”

"If things are allowed to develop naturally and the child inherits the Mu family's inheritance, then the second half of someone's life will be very miserable." "So he has to 'get rid of' the child in order to ensure his own prosperity and wealth." ”

"With his status in the Mu Mansion, there is definitely no shortage of money, and it is very simple to do things in secret." Jiang Youyi said, "The motive is there, the conditions are thereβ€”more importantly, in the entire Mu Mansion, there are only three people who have the ability to do this without knowing it, and two of them are already deadβ€”how do you say that?" All impossibilities are ruled out, and the rest is the answer! ”

Really?

Is that really the answer?

"Mu Yuansheng!" Jiang You gritted his teeth and said, "It's too obvious, there will be no one else but him!" ”

"What do you want to do if it's him?" I asked.

"I ...... I'm going to beat him up. Jiang You hesitated for a long time before he said tremblingly.

yes, what else can you do but beat him up?

As the head of the Mu family, he is the last lone seedling of the Mu family, even if Mu Yuansheng commits a heinous crime, the Mu family has to protect him and protect him.

You, an outsider, do you have to forcibly interfere in other people's family affairs and cause other people's families to be ruined?

Unless......

"I think we can find another person." Jiang You said suddenly.

"Is there anyone else who can cure Mu Yuansheng?" I guessed.

"That's a good guess." Jiang You said, "Mu Yuansheng, the head of the family, is only in name, he is not the one with the highest status in the Mu family, not even Old Man Mu." ”

"Higher status than Old Man Mu?" I was surprised.

"Exactly." Jiang You said, "She is the mother of Old Man Mu - Old Ancestor Mu He!" ”

"Old Ancestor Muhe?" My eyes rolled and said, "The ancestor is also surnamed He, does it have anything to do with the Mu He family?" ”

"Of course it does." Jiang You said, "The Mu family and the He family are both big clans in Bingzhou, and the marriage between the two families has a history of hundreds of years. The Chenzhou Mu family is a branch of the Bingzhou Mu family, which also inherits this marriage tradition. ”

"Then how old is this old ancestor?" I wondered.

"I'll do ......the math," Jiang right-pinched his fingers, "It should be eighty-seven years old, and I was still in the Mu family when she was eighty years old." ”

"It's a blessing." I said.

Although there is no shortage of 100-year-old monsters in the rivers and lakes, they are all some top masters who have reached the pinnacle, and ordinary people can live more than sixty years old, or how to say that life is rare for seventy years.

"However, what use can you do to find the Ancestor?" I said again.

"It can be big or small." Jiang You said, "Mu Yuansheng can't have children, do you know how to deal with this?" ”

"See a doctor and take medicine, burn incense and worship Buddha." I said, "What else can I do?" ”

"You have to rely on a miracle to say this." Jiang You said, "It is impossible to try luck with the inheritance of a family, so there is only one way to deal with it - succession!" ”

"I see, it's to 'borrow' a son from the Lord's house." I said.

"Borrowing and borrowing, the key is who the child belongs after borrowing." Jiang Youdao.

"Mu Yuansheng is the head of the family, and the borrowed child is naturally his." I said.

"What if Mu Yuansheng did something that was spurned by the family?" Jiang Youdao.

"So......" I nodded, "If the old ancestor knew about Mu Yuansheng's bad deeds, maybe he would let the borrowed child recognize Mu Yuanfang as his father, which is equivalent to depriving Mu Yuansheng of his inheritance rights in disguise!" ”

Lately the form has been quite mysterious......
