Mu Hongshang followed her grandmother back to the courtyard, Mu Zhengyi had already arrived with the other brothers first, and as soon as Mrs. Mu came back, Mu Zhengyi immediately went to help her grandmother and sent her back to the house.

"Let's all go play," Mrs. Mu smiled and waved her hand: "Hongshang is here to accompany me for a while, so don't be restrained."

Mu Zhengyi glanced at Mu Hongsheng, nodded with a smile, and left with his younger brothers, almost in the blink of an eye, Mrs. Mu's side was clean, only the maids who were constantly quiet and busy remained, and Mu Hongsheng, who was running around behind the maid's buttocks, busy washing her grandmother's face.

"Red Dress, come here." Old Madam Mu beckoned to Mu Hongsheng: "You don't need to do these things, the maids will naturally arrange them." You don't have to be busy, grandmother is fine. ”

"Grandmother is fine" is a few simple words, and it contains a thousand meanings. Mu Hongshang turned around, walked to Mrs. Mu in a few steps, sat on the pedals, and looked up at her grandmother who was unloading her jewelry, her big eyes were shining, like a puppy staring at people.

"Really?" Mu Hongshang opened her mouth to ask, she stretched out a hand, grabbed the hand that Old Madam Mu put on her lap, and said very seriously: "Grandmother, Daddy, Uncle and Brother are all fine, really!" It's all good! The eldest brother said that bad news comes quickly, and no news is a good thing. If there is a mistake on the Qincha side, there must be a letter delivered to the capital early, where will it be so silent. It must have been delayed on the road to Qincha this year, but it was just delayed. ”

"Grandmother knows." Old Madam Mu patted Mu Hongsheng's little face and smiled at her: "Grandmother knows." Grandmother is really fine, you don't have to keep thinking about how to make your grandmother happy, it's always like this, your mother and they have to see the clues. ”

"Don't worry, grandmother," Mu Hongsheng's eyes bent, she pulled Old Madam Mu's hand and shook it, and said coquettishly, "I'm smart."

Mu Hongshang's self-selling boast made Mrs. Mu laugh: "Yes, yes, my granddaughter is the smartest."

On this day, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet of the Mu family was very lively. Even because Mu Zhengyi returned home, it was a little more lively than usual. Mrs. Mu cheered up and laughed with her grandchildren, and drank a few more glasses of wine for the first time.

The ladies are also smiling, and they don't look worried and anxious, and in order not to worry people, everyone is trying their best to make a relaxed appearance.

The banquet did not disperse until the middle of the moon, and Mu Biying and Mu Hongshang were impatiently waiting, and they all ran to the garden to find her.

Mu Biying has grown up a little, and now she is a little older than ordinary cats, but she is still a young leopard. It was no longer tethered, but running all over the yard.

When Mu Hongshang untied the chain on the first day, Mu Biying disappeared from her yard like a fly, as if she had escaped, Mu Hongshang was so anxious that she cried, and the people up and down the Anguo Mansion were busy all day, almost turning over the entire mansion, and they didn't find the escaped leopard.

Until the evening, Mu Hongsheng's eyes were swollen from crying, and she was almost desperate, feeling that she had lost the leopard that her brothers had worked so hard to find her, who would have thought that when the moon was in the treetops, Mu Biying would come back by herself.

Mu Hongshang was anxious all day, and suddenly saw the intact Mu Biying appear, and cried angrily, wanting to beat it but was reluctant, so she had to close the door and go to sleep by herself as if she was in a temper, ignoring Mu Biying.

However, early the next morning, as soon as Mu Hongshang opened the door, she found Mu Bi sitting upright at her door like a big cat, as if waiting for her to get up. As soon as she saw her appear, Mu Biying took the initiative to stand up and walked around her legs twice, rubbing back and forth, looking intimate.

From that day on, Mu Biying officially became Mu Hongsheng's leopard. No one locks it up anymore, and it doesn't run around. It is very smart, it can almost understand what Mu Hongshang says, but sometimes it pretends not to understand when it understands, and is too lazy to take care of its little master.

Although the leopard is fierce, the young leopard is very beautiful and cute, like a huge gray leopard cat, with a big head and a simple look.

But it's not really Han, the entire Mu family, it only allows Mu Hongshang to hold it alone, and even the lotus leaves and water chestnuts that feed it meat every day can't get close to two feet beside it.

The only one with a slightly better treatment is Mu Zhengyi, probably because Mu Zhengyi picked it up from the mountain and fed it for more than half a month, Mu Biying's attitude towards Mu Zhengyi is also "very friendly", at least Mu Zhengyi is allowed to touch it.

But it can only be touched, if there is any more intimate behavior, Mu Biying will unceremoniously raise his claws towards Mu Zhengyi, leaving a few bloody wounds on him.

The moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival is very bright, and Mu Biying's eyes under the moonlight glow with a faint green light, rubbing Mu Hongsheng's feet, making an affectionate hum.

Mu Hongsheng and Mu Biying walked back in the moonlight together, and it was not until they returned to her yard that Mu Hongsheng picked up Mu Biying, held it in his arms, and asked softly: "Biying, Daddy, uncle, and brother will be fine, right?" Actually, I'm worried about them too......"

Of course, Mu Biying couldn't answer Mu Hongsheng's question. It tilted its head, rubbed Mu Hongsheng's chin with the top of its head, then stretched out its barbed tongue, licked Mu Hongsheng's face twice, and licked Mu Hongsheng with a smile.

"Biying," Mu Hongshang stretched out her hand and patted the top of Mu Biying's head: "Your tongue is really powerful, when you grow up, I'm afraid that if you don't stick out your tongue, you will lick off a layer of my skin."

Mu Biying narrowed her eyes, pounced on Mu Hongsheng's neck like a big cat, and lay on her shoulder without moving. Mu Hongshang raised his head to look at the bright moonlight, and whispered: "I hope that as soon as I wake up tomorrow morning, I will be able to hear the news that Lao Junqin has returned to Beijing."

Maybe God really heard Mu Hongsheng's wish, two days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, although Lao Junqin had not yet returned to Beijing, the Mu family's own messenger arrived.

At dusk, the messenger dismounted in front of the Anguo Mansion in a sweaty manner, shaking both legs. The porter's servant hurriedly went up to help the messenger, who didn't have time to wipe his sweat, so he hurriedly took out a thick stack of letters from his bosom and stuffed them directly to the porter: "Give!" Grandpa Guo was afraid that the wives in the family would be worried, so he ordered me to send it over in the starry night, and send it in quickly. ”

The servant of the porter agreed, picked up the letter and hurriedly ran to the back house, and halfway through, he saw Mu Zhengyi hurrying out of the door with his robe.

"I heard the messenger has arrived?" After Mu Zhengyi saw the servant in the porter, he immediately asked;

"Yes!" The servant held up a stack of letters with a happy face: "Young Master, the letter from the north has arrived!"
