Chapter Seventy-One: Servility Under Absolute Authority

Ke Junxia insisted on wearing his own clothes to the banquet, of course, no one dared to disobey him.

In fact, for a moment, Ke Junxia wanted to just leave, what grandfather! What a family! In his heart, it was actually worthless.

When it is still there, the home is the place where there is a mother; After his mother's death, Ke Junxia was confused, but he is now building his own home. In this big family, there are friends, lovers, and relatives, and everyone supports each other to prepare for the impending disaster.

Ke Junxia feels that this is a kind of happiness and hope for the future.

And the family, it is difficult for Ke Junxia to imagine that he is actually one of them, and even he rushed to humiliation for having such a bloodline.

Yes, the families represented by the Metropolis's Board of Directors have indeed made the Metropolis a home to millions of people, but it is these families that are the source of the Metropolis's decline and imminent destruction.

Ke Junxia didn't want to join such a crime.

But now he has to patiently accompany the old man to lunch, because yesterday he was hit by the old man in the weakest part of his heart, defeated in a mess, completely lost his square inches, and the information he should have gotten was not obtained at all.

But he still chose his own way of resisting - wearing his own clothes to the feast, which is the only thing he can keep to himself at the moment.

The restaurant is large and the dΓ©cor is very simple, but Ke Junxia can see that this simplicity is actually another embodiment of luxury. For example, a tapestry on the wall, very old and clean, one of the few works of art brought from the earth, Ke Junxia once saw in the museum.

Although he is not an expert in antiquities, his intuition tells him that the one hanging here is the original product, and the one in the museum is a high-quality imitation.

Old Man Mu was already sitting at the dining table, the long dining table was ten meters long, Old Man Mu sat at the end of the upper position, and judging from the placement of the tableware, Ke Junxia's seat was at the lower end, and the two sat opposite each other, but there was a distance of ten meters.

"Mr. Mu, I'm here." Ke Junxia didn't call Old Man Mu's grandfather, although it must be the case in terms of blood, after all, even the top nobles in the metropolis like to do nonsense, but it is not to the extent of indiscriminately recognizing blood relatives. And Ke Junxia is also difficult to get close to this grandfather who fell from the sky.

Fortunately, Old Man Mu didn't seem to care about this, he raised his head slightly, and although his voice was weak, it was full of majesty: "Oh, sit down." ”

A servant pulled out a chair, and Ke Junxia sat down with a grin.

The old man looked at Ke Junxia, his eyes were not soft, he was full of dissatisfaction, and then he asked, "Who is in charge of Young Master Xia's clothes?" ”

A maid, Ke Junxia recognized her as the maid who massaged him in the morning, she stood up, bowed first, and then whispered: "It's me" After speaking, she bowed again.

Old Man Mu asked again: "Why didn't Young Master Xia change his small dress at home?" ”

Ke Junxia had a premonition that something bad would happen, so he hurriedly grabbed in front of the maid and said, "Mr. Mu, I'm not used to any dresses, I'm more used to my original clothes." ”

Old Man Mu said "um", Ke Junxia breathed a sigh of relief, but just when he felt that this matter had passed, Old Man Mu suddenly said lightly: "Pump her." ”

Almost at an electric speed, a man in a suit stepped forward and pulled the maid's wide-shouldered maid's skirt to his waist, and the maid instinctively protected her chest, let out a half-exclamation, and was already pushed to the dining table.

At this time, the maid's face was facing Ke Junxia, and Ke Junxia saw her frightened and desperate expression.

The man in the suit took a step back, pulled out the whip from his waist, glanced at the old man Mu, and saw that the old man didn't say anything, so he whipped it down fiercely.

A bloody streak suddenly appeared on the maid's back, but she didn't dare to let herself scream, so she bit her hand.

Ke Junxia stood up and stopped: "It's not her fault, it's that I don't want to change my clothes." ”

The man in the suit stopped, but it wasn't because Ke Junxia stopped him, he was waiting for Old Man Mu's order.

Old Man Mu seemed to be enjoying everything in front of him, he tasted the red wine in his glass, and seemed to be very satisfied with everything in front of him.

So the man in the suit whipped down again.

Ke Junxia couldn't bear it any longer, jumped up and grabbed the whip, and pushed the man in the suit back a few steps again. Then he disdainfully threw away the whip and took off his coat and draped it over the maid's body.

Old Man Mu was still sipping red wine, and said to the man in the suit: "I let you smoke her, but I didn't let you stop." ”

The man in the suit looked at Ke Junxia, and Ke Junxia still used his body to protect the maid.

The man in the suit did not dare to step forward.

Old Man Mu said again: "I asked you to smoke her, you can't do it, you have to punish yourself." ”

The man in the suit looked at Ke Junxia again, then gritted his teeth, stepped forward and put his right hand on the dining table, then pulled out a short knife with his left hand, and nailed his right hand to the table with one sword.

This is a ruthless man, and he doesn't even snort.

"Are you crazy!" Ke Junxia burst into a shout, and stepped forward to give first aid to the man in the suit, when the old man Mu said, "If you want to help them, don't do anything." The punishment is offset by the mistakes made, and it will be fine. The more you help them, the less they can correct their mistakes. You're doing them harm. ”

Ke Junxia's breathing intensified.

People in the lower city always think that the upper town is a paradise, and when they get to the upper town, it is more like climbing to a higher position. But today, Ke Junxia has seen what heaven is like.

Old Man Mu saw Ke Junxia's anger rising, and he didn't panic at all, but said slowly: "Otherwise, if you call me grandfather, their mistakes will be forgiven." ”

Ke Junxia sneered: "Call you grandpa? I'll call you an old king! ”

said that it was too late, Ke Junxia's voice did not fall, he had already pulled out a gun and pointed it at the old man Mu, and said: "I have a suggestion, you apologize to them, and then I won't open a hole in your head." ”

Old Man Mu coughed with a smile again, and only said after a while: "How many years, how many years, how many years no one dares to hold a gun at me." That's right, you are indeed the seed of my Mu family. ”

Ke Junxia said: "Don't talk nonsense, apologize quickly." ”

Old Man Mu said: "Let's not talk about whether you will shoot or not, even if you shoot, can you kill me?" ”

These words really provoked Ke Junxia's fire, he didn't believe that such an old guy could still be invulnerable?

But the next scene made Ke Junxia desperate. First the two nurses beside the old man, then the man in sunglasses, then the other servants in the room, even the man in the suit and the maid who had been whipped struggled to get closer to the old man, they surrounded the old man and formed a human wall in front of him, blocking Ke Junxia's muzzle.

"Crazy, you're all crazy!" Ke Junxia was furious, "He treats you like that, why do you still protect him?" Lose your marbles! Are you all crazy? ”

"They're not crazy, not only are they not crazy, but they can settle accounts." Old Man Mu's voice came from behind the human wall: "Each of them has a monthly salary that can make it easy for their family members to live a life above the middle class. And some talented people will also be recommended to some departments to be officials. Also, although they are minions here, if they have the opportunity to go out on errands, it will be more beautiful than the minister. So, they cherish their current profession. And you, my stupid grandson, have no more pity and concern for them, and in fact your cousins, sometimes when they are naughty, deliberately make mistakes to watch them be punished for their amusement. ”

Ke Junxia was dumbfounded when he heard this, but he quickly understood that he might indeed be nosy, and the people here may not need his sympathy and help at all, and those who need his help are not here, and they do not belong here.

"Grandpa." Ke Junxia shouted clearly.

A few seconds of silence followed.

Then Mr. Mu said in an old voice, "Everyone get out of the way." ”

Get out of the way.

Old Man Mu said to Ke Junxia: "You are a smart and strong child, so although you called me grandfather, you didn't really recognize me as a relative, but just wanted me to stop punishing them." ”

Ke Junxia smiled and said: "No, you have made it very clear just now, they don't need my help, and I have also figured out that some objective existences are not transferred by subjective will, just like you are my grandfather, this is an objective existence." ”

Old Man Mu nodded and said, "This is where you are smart, is there any other reason?" ”

Ke Junxia said: "Because of my mother." My mother is a great person, and she never mentioned you in front of me, but she will never stop me from calling you grandpa. ”

Old Man Mu sighed: "You are as stubborn as your mother, you just willingly called my grandfather, which means that I am going to lose you again." ”

Ke Junxia said, "Yes, I'm leaving." And the Mu family is prosperous, you are already four generations in the same house, there is no more than me, and there is no less than me, so why should I stay, let us hate each other? But I have one more request before I leave, and I ask you to grant it, grandfather. ”

Old Man Mu smiled: "You're leaving, and you actually begged me, okay, you can say it." ”

Ke Junxia said: "After I leave, please don't punish them for my mistakes. ”

Old Man Mu began to laugh, began to cough, and finally asked the nurse next to him to take a mouthful of phlegm before saying, "I just said that they don't need your sympathy and pity, why did you still make such a request?" ”

Ke Junxia said: "I'm not for them, it's for myself, for my own conscience. ”

Old Man Mu frowned and said, "It's really a tone to talk to your mother, okay, you go, I promise you." ”

Ke Junxia took a step back, tidied up his clothes, and then said loudly: "Thank you, grandpa." Then he knelt down, kowtowed three times in a proper manner, and then stood up and said, "Thank you, Mr. Mu, for your hospitality in the past two days, and you are going to say goodbye." ”

After he finished speaking, he bowed again, turned and walked out.

After a long time, Old Man Mu first let out a long sigh, and then laughed again, laughing until he coughed.

Then the maid who had been whipped suddenly said, "Ah...... Young Master Xia's coat ......"

Old Man Mu said: "He rewarded you, you can stay, in addition, you, pick a few people with him (the man in the suit), go to the new office of 405 to follow the young master Xia, you are the head maid, and he is the chief guard." The paycheck bonus is still taken from the family. ”

The two of them were a little surprised, but also a little happy, no matter what, no matter what kind of character Ke Junxia is, the rules of the family are too big, and the people who are pressed are out of breath, how can they be much more free outside than here. Not to mention the salary increase. So he hurriedly thanked him.

Old Man Mu waved his hand, leaned back on the chair, and muttered: "Stinky boy, if you want to jump out of my Five Finger Mountain, there is no door." ”
