CHAPTER XXII

Xiao Lanjun sat up straight, looked at Mu Qingling's cramped feeling of being caught, and said, "No, I didn't do anything." ”

Mu Qingling walked over and picked up the rabbit with condemnation in her eyes. Xiao Lanwei laughed dryly, trying to divert Mu Qingling's attention, "That, junior sister, didn't you say that you were meeting guests, why did you come here at this time?" ”

Speaking of business, Mu Qingling temporarily let go of Xiao Lanhuan, sat down opposite him, and said, "Senior brother, what happened?" Don't fool me with outsiders' unclean hands and feet. Xiao Lanwei saw Mu Qingling looking like I wouldn't leave if you don't tell the truth, and chuckled: "Little girl, the eldest brother is like a father, what the senior brother says is what it is, don't doubt it." ”

Xiao Lanwei didn't want the dirty thoughts of the Wang family mother and son to taint Mu Qingling's ears, so she only said that outsiders were caught being greedy. But Mu Qingling is not a person who gives up easily, she looked at Xiao Lanhuan stubbornly, and said, "Senior brother, Mrs. Mu Qiuming's business was asked by you to do it, right?" ”

"Oh? How could you think that? Xiao Lanwei raised her eyebrows and looked at Mu Qingling with some playfulness. Mu Qingling saw that Xiao Lanjun had nothing to hide in this matter, and lowered her eyes and said softly: "Senior brother, there is no need to mix these things with your respect, I know that you are doing these things...... It's all for me, Qingling remembers it. Today's events, I also hope that my senior brother will not hide it from me. ”

Xiao Lanhuan looked at Mu Qingling, she lowered her head slightly, from her forehead to her chin, the light outlined an almost perfect outline. The shadows of the trees on the side fell on her face, half bright and half dark, but accentuated her beautiful face. Such an innocent person who should have been firmly protected by his father and brother all his life, now he has walked into the sun, bearing all the light and darkness, praise and slander.

"Mu Qingling, do you know what the word prince means?" Xiao Lanjun suddenly called Mu Qingling by name and surname, and Mu Qingling, who had never seen him so serious, was stunned for a moment and nodded.

Xiao Lanwei laughed, indescribably flamboyant and noble, "No, you don't understand." Xiao Lanhuan looked at Mu Qingling's eyes, and the whole person had a little more irresistible momentum, "I am the youngest son of the Queen Mother, and I am the Holy Princess." When the head of the court still has to kneel three times and bow nine times in front of me, if I want to protect a person, even if the sky falls, it will not stop me. ”

Mu Qingling looked at the completely unfamiliar Xiao Lanwei in front of her in a daze, Xiao Lanling has always behaved freely and wantonly, and there is no prince on her body, causing Mu Qingling to forget that this person in front of her is a high-ranking nobleman.

"My junior sister is not called in vain, you have all kinds of scruples and embarrassments, but I don't. If you say bitter, don't say that these fly camp villains are just white now, even if I am a first-class official in the court, I can make him take off his official uniform and dare not take a step forward; If you want to face it yourself, you can, but there are some things that are too dirty for you, and you don't need to get to the bottom of it. You just need to know, no matter what you want to do, you are the younger sister of the King of Ease, although this identity is not as noble as the princess and the county lord, but it is enough for you to rely on, understand? ”

Mu Qingling was still stupid and couldn't come back to her senses, Xiao Lanwei rarely saw her like this. smiled, stretched out his hand and flicked it on her forehead, and said, "Okay, little girl, go back." In the future, if you have more things, come and ask your brother, and your brother will not harm you. ”

Mu Qingling covered her forehead, looking at Xiao Lanyu smiling openly, her face suddenly turned red, and the little rabbit in her arms seemed to get into her chest, and it was jumping "dong" and "dong". Mu Qingling stood up, stuffed the rabbit to Xiao Lanwei indiscriminately, looked at it and hurriedly said, "Then, the senior sister will leave first." ”

Xiao Lanwei watched with amusement as Mu Qingling hurriedly took people away, raised the rabbit in her arms, looked at its jewel-like red eyes and smiled: "Little one has no conscience, can a dog chase you?" ”

The tip of the little rabbit's nose shrugged, tilted its head, and looked at Xiao Lanwei innocently.

Xujia Town, Mulian Mansion.

"The medicinal materials are all here, and the house will prepare them as soon as possible, otherwise if it drags on, I am afraid that the son will hinder his actions in the future." Lao Langzhong closed the medicine box and handed the prescription to Mu Lian, Mu Lian took a look at it, and said in a trembling voice: "This, people like us have never heard of these things, where are we going to find them!" ”

Lao Langzhong looked at Mu Lian's face, shook his head and said, "It's not that I deliberately embarrassed the house, it's just that the injury on the son's leg is too serious, and it can't be cured without good medicine." You can figure it out for yourself, either ask for medicine or drag someone to help, anyway, as soon as possible. This bone injury is no more than others, and the effect of dragging on for one day is one day less. ”

The medicine boy picked up the medicine box and followed Lao Langzhong out, Mu Lian saw that someone was leaving, and hurriedly shouted behind him: "Doctor, doctor, think about it again!" These things, where can we ordinary people afford them! ”

The Wang family in the room heard Mu Lian's shout and walked out. That day, she came back from Yufu, did not wait for the good news that her son succeeded, but waited for the bad news that her son was broken and hung naked on the city gate, and the Wang family who learned the news fainted on the spot, and when she woke up, she saw that her baby son who was carried back had blue and cold legs, and he had more air and less breath, and immediately cried.

Mu Lian and she didn't care about seeing their son naked all over the town, so they hurriedly invited the best doctor in the town to come over for treatment. The old doctor snatched Mu Cai back from Lord Yama, but the follow-up prescriptions were indeed more expensive than the other, and many medicinal herbs Mu didn't even know or hear of them, so it was easier to let him find them than to let him die headlong.

"What did the doctor say?" Wang walked up to Mu Lian and asked, Mu Lian didn't want to look at her now, and walked out with a serious face with the prescription. Wang grabbed Mu Lian and asked sharply, "You say!" What did the doctor say? Is there any salvation for my wealth? ”

Mu Lian was irritable in her heart, and now she was entangled by Wang, and she had a bad anger in her heart, and she raised her hand and slapped Wang, slapped her to the ground, and shouted: "Help, help!" Let's see if you can save your son by putting the whole family on board! ”

Wang covered his face, looked at Mu Lian and shouted, "What do you mean! Do you want to give up your money?! I'll tell you Mulian! If you dare not save the wealth, I will fight with you! Mu Lian saw that Wang still dared to speak to himself like this at this time, and kicked Wang out of the country with a heartwarming foot, scolding while beating: "You fought with Lao Tzu?!" I haven't settled accounts with you yet! My son went out with you, you didn't have a good, why was your son beaten like this! is still hanging on the city gate, how can you let my Mu family be a person in the town! How do you still make me do business! Mourning star, Lao Tzu should have killed you with a bowl of medicine, and the province let you harm my whole family today! ”

Wang was kicked by Mu Lian and curled up on the ground, the blood was coughed up, she had not been treated like this by Mu Lian since she married in, and then thought of her son who was still on the sickbed, Wang didn't dare to spill anymore, reached out and grabbed the corner of Mu Lian's clothes and cried: "It's all my fault, it's my fault, you can kill or scrape, but I beg you, Cai'er is also your son, you save him, you save him!" ”

Mu Lian had a seizure, and at this time he lost his strength, panting and glaring at Wang. Hearing Wang's begging, Mu Lian kicked Wang away and walked out angrily.

Wang fell to the ground, only to feel pain all over his body. She couldn't stand up by herself, and the people in the family didn't dare to help her, so they could only let her lie on the ground. Wang thought of his son, who was still lying on the bed, and gradually cried. She has only had one son, Mu Cai, for so many years, and now that Mu Cai has broken her leg, looking at Mu Lian's appearance, she will definitely not do her best to ask for Mu Cai, she has such a hope in her life, and now it is all over, all over!

"Ahh Wang let out a sharp cry, "Mu Qingling, you can't die well, Mu Qingling!" ”

Wang didn't feel that there was anything wrong with designing Mu Qingling first, she only knew that his son went to Mu Mansion and was thrown out with a broken leg, and he had nothing else to think about except Mu Qingling. She could only put all her resentment on Mu Qingling, and she didn't dare to admit that if she hadn't been tempted to move forward, Mu Cai would not have this catastrophe.

"Ahem...... ahem" Mu Qiwen put down the prescription and coughed twice. His face was not very good, he was so angry that the matter of Mu Qiuming's family before he was so angry that it was not easy to find out, so Mu Lian came to the door with a prescription again. Mu Qiwen looked at Mu Lian, who was worried, and said in a deep voice: "You can think of other ways." ”

As soon as Mu Lian heard this, he knew that Mu Qiwen was not going to help, so he knelt down and burst into tears, "Patriarch! Cai'er will also be watched by you to grow up, you can save him! ”

Mu Qiwen didn't feel good either, he stomped on the cane in his hand and shouted, "Is it because I don't want to save him?!" See for yourself what is on this recipe! You can only afford to put all your belongings in it! How long do I have to take this medicine?! Can it be better in less than a year and a half? Are you going to let the whole clan drink the northwest wind with your family?! ”

Mu Lian said in despair: "Then, don't you care about money?" I'm just this one son! ”

Mu Qiwen remembered that he was angry, and Mu Qiuming's family had an accident, but because he was behind his back, he couldn't do it. Mu Lian's family was doing ghosts behind his back, but not only did he not catch anything, but he also lost a person.

"Now you know to ask me! Why don't you tell me when your mother-in-law is messing around! Now that you know crying, what did you do earlier! Mu Qiwen scolded, and Mu Lian sat down on the ground, crying more and more sadly.

Mu Qiwen sighed and said, "Don't cry, you are still young, and you have some industry at home." Are you still afraid that there will be no son to inherit the lineage? ”

Mu Lian was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Mu Qiwen. Mu Qiwen continued: "Cai'er is not good, even if he is rescued, after all, he has been injured fundamentally, and it will be hindered in the future in the heirs, send him to the countryside to raise him in the Zhuangzi, there is no shortage of his stuttering on the Zhuangzi, and it can be regarded as the friendship between your father and son." ”

Mu Lian hadn't thought about it yet, so he stumbled and said, "Can ...... But ......"

Mu Qiwen looked at Mu Lian coldly and said, "The Mu family doesn't raise waste people, so send the mourning star of your family over with you, you don't have to stay here to make trouble." The aunt and grandmother of the Liu family in the town have just left and gone home, if you are willing, I will find someone to help you make peace. Liu's aunt and grandmother are young and healthy, and I heard that they look good. I will definitely be able to add another son to you in less than two years. You also know from the Liu family that the grain shops in the town belong to their family, and if you can marry her, it will also be a help to our clan. ”

Mu Lian was shocked by Mu Qiwen's arrangement, but after being surprised, his mind was irrepressibly alive, when he took the Wang family, his family was not very wealthy, so there was no choice in the matter of marrying a wife, now the Mu family has established a foothold in Xujia Town, and he himself has some net worth, but the Wang family is tightly controlled, and he is not allowed to accept the small in life or death, he is not without anger, and now he has a legitimate reason to send the Wang family away, Mu Lian's heart is untimely with a wave of joy.

"Then, that Cai'er ......" Mu Lian still had the last bit of conscience, Mu Qiwen glanced at him and said: "Mu Cai is the descendant of our Mu family, when he recovers from Zhuangzi, you hire him a daughter-in-law, and then give him some money, enough for him to live in the countryside for a lifetime." The Mu family is now a little bit out of our family, don't delay your future because of these children's personal affairs! ”

Mu Lian repeated Mu Qiwen's words in his heart, and then thought of Mu Caitieqing's face on the hospital bed, gritted his teeth, and said, "Okay, I'...... When I go back, I will send them to Zhuangzi ......"
