100 Kyoto matters
Mu Xi arrived in Kyoto on the same day, and returned to Mu's house after handing over the task. Qi Qian didn't know that Mu Xi would come back today, so she took the daughter-in-law and little girl of the Mu family's third room and went out shopping, leaving an old man of the Mu family to guard the door, and by the way, she brought an old friend to play chess.
"Big or Young?" The old housekeeper standing in the living room saw Mu Xi who had not returned for a long time at first sight, and ran out of the sprint championship speed with the appearance of a dying old man, "When did you come back, why don't you call first, what do you want to eat at night?" ”
"Uncle Mu, just mess with it, what about grandpa?" Mu Xi was still very respectful and polite to the old butler.
Mu Bo's name is Mu Ming, and he is the captain of the guards who has been following Old Man Mu back then, and later Old Man Mu retired, Mu Ming retreated, and then went to Mu's house to work as a housekeeper.
"The old man is playing chess with Old Man Cheng in the backyard." Mu Ming looked at Mu Xi's obviously 'thinner' figure, so he muttered to himself: Otherwise, stew some chicken soup at night to make up for Da Shao.
Hearing this, Mu Xi's feet slipped, and he instantly remembered the fear of being dominated by chicken soup a few days ago, and immediately turned back to Mu Ming and said, "Uncle Mu, don't make dishes related to 'chicken'. ”
Mu Ming looked puzzled when he heard this, but when he saw Mu Xi's face, he replied 'yes', and Mu Xi didn't explain much, so he raised his feet and walked to the backyard.
The sun, which is close to three or four o'clock in the afternoon of June, is gradually getting hot. However, there are many trees in the backyard of the Mu family, and the sun can only shine into the wisps of sunlight, forming mottled spots on the ground. As soon as I stepped into the backyard, it was as if the temperature had dropped by several degrees.
"Grandpa, Grandpa Cheng." Mu Xi stepped into the backyard and saw two old men sitting facing each other in the shade of the trees, and the white and black chess pieces fell on the chessboard, making a crisp sound in the air.
Old Man Mu looked up, and saw his grandson, who he hadn't seen for a long time, walking towards him, and the white chess on his fingertips paused, and then said with a relieved face: "Finally back." ”
After all, he is a member of the army, and he also knows that he has been in the rescue force some time ago, and he can't guess what happened when he contacted Mu Xi, who had been missing for many days. During this time, he was also worried, lest he hear any bad news coming back, but fortunately, there has been no news. It also made him settle down a little and worry a little.
"Mu boy, it's really rare to see you!" Old man Cheng was on the side, holding a sunspot in his hand, and he smiled very kindly.
In fact, Chen Li, the old man of Cheng, is the leader of the Chen family, one of the four major families in Kyoto, and he was also born in mud legs back then, and he has led the Chen family to this point, and his means and mind are also very accessible.
"Grandpa Chen said with a smile," Mu Xi walked over, dragged a chair and sat next to Old Man Mu, and looked at the chess game in front of him, Lang smiled and said, "Grandpa's chess skills are up!" ”
Old Man Cheng was originally a veteran of chess, and Old Man Mu was already very good at being able to hold out for a few rounds under Old Man Cheng, but looking at the current situation, I am afraid that it has been back and forth for a while.
"That's it, I've been ...... recently" Old Man Mu was proud, and the next second Old Man Cheng cut off his words.
"It's not his chess skills that have improved, but his cheekiness, and he has played a chess game more than a dozen times."
"Fart, that's called judging the situation."
Mu Xi's eyes twitched, and he knew in his heart that Old Man Cheng was also wronged. Mu Xi knows what kind of character his old man knows tightly, he doesn't know how to play chess, he is still a stinky chess basket, but he still likes to play chess, and he often regrets playing chess several times when he asks a few friends to play a game of chess. After a burst of emotion in his heart, Leng Buding heard the old man's voice be lowered, and when he raised his eyes, it turned out that the old man Cheng was blocking the way of the white man with a black child, and a soft chuckle hung on his face.
When the chess game was over, Chen Lao didn't stay long, and left after half an hour. Then Mu Xi took over the seat of Old Man Cheng with great vision, held the white zi, and played chess with Old Man Mu.
In fact, the structure of the Mu family is also very simple, there is an old man (Mu Ge) supporting the scene, in the middle there are the eldest Mu Cheng and the third Mu Zhe in the middle of the development in the army, and a little sister Mu Ci married into the Meng family and lived happily.
Mu Xi is the child of Mu Cheng and Qi Qian, the third generation of the Mu family is the eldest, Mu Xiao is the child of the third Mu Zhe and Jian An'an, the second in the Mu family, and the third is Mu Xiao's sister Mu Jing.
Qi Qian is the third daughter of the Qi family, and if the Qi family counts its true strength, it will not be worse than the four major families in Kyoto. However, the Jian family is a little weaker, Jian An'an is the eldest daughter of the Jian family, and the Jian family is a second-rate family in Kyoto, but it only goes to the business world, and the Jane's Group is still a first-class group.
The Meng family, which Mu Ci married, is a second-rate family in Kyoto, and those who take the road of politics can be regarded as low-marrying, but because they are free love, the two are now living very happily.
In addition to free love, this can also be regarded as a marriage of a big family. A marriage family connects the two forces, but if it is really calculated, maybe you have to add the foreign family, that is, the four forces are gathered. The marriage relationship is complicated, and if you really count the various relationships of these families in Kyoto, I am afraid that it will not be clear for three days and three nights.
But these are all off-topic, and now Mu Xi is playing chess with Mu Ge Haosheng. However, even though Mu Ge repented many times, he was finally killed by Mu Xi at the gate of the city.
"Grandpa, you lost."
Mu Ge put down the chess pieces, his face full of displeasure, "How can you kid go out and improve your chess skills?" ”
Mu Xi was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, and his eyes were bent up, full of starlight. Chess skills on the rise? It's not because every time I'm bored, I'll have a game with Mo Jin. Mo Jin is a real ancient, and there is no need to say much about chess skills. The two of them played heartily, winning and losing half, and if they came a few more times, their chess skills would naturally rise.
But when he thought of Mo Jin, Mu Xi felt very sweet in his heart, and a smile unconsciously hung on his lips.
"By the way, when will you bring my granddaughter-in-law back?" Mugo has a big opinion on this, neither of them came back for the Chinese New Year last year, and it is impossible to say that they are still running this year.
"It's the New Year this year." As soon as Mu Xi stretched out his hand, a sunspot landed on the chessboard.
"It's okay, give birth to a grandson as soon as possible, and I'll hug me too," Mu Ge said as he followed Mu Xi and dropped a child, "That kid from the Shi family did a good job, and it is estimated that he will be able to go up and walk again after a while, you will be fine for the next two days or so, talk to them, it seems that Kong He's kid lost a lot some time ago." ”
"I don't know, I'll talk about it tomorrow." He is not in the country all the year round, and it is not particularly clear what happened, but fortunately, there is an old man who reminds him, and the news is not too lagging behind.
"Kyoto has not been normal in the past two days, the turmoil is not small, the old man of the Li family left some time ago, and many families are staring at it."
"Grandpa Chen is here~" Mu Xi didn't finish speaking, but Mu Ge understood.
"He's here to help the Meng family stand on the side."
Mu Xi understood in an instant, as soon as the old man of the Li family left, even if the next generation of the Li family developed well, no one could support the girder of the Li family, so the Li family naturally had to retreat, and the position of this withdrawal depended on which one could climb up.
On the other hand, the Meng family is not only the in-laws of the Mu family, but also the in-laws of the Chen family. The Mu family is the only one who is the in-law of the Meng family, but the Chen family is not the only in-law of the Meng family, so Old Man Chen came today to tell everyone that the Chen family and the Mu family have joined forces to support the Meng family.
The two top families in Kyoto support the same family, and the position has already been decided.
This is why a qualified heir is very important, if the Li family has an heir qualified, the Li family will not decline, and even the family status will not be maintained. However, how many people still remember the love of Old Man Li, and there is not much difficulty for the Li family.
In this afternoon's chess game, Mu Ge has already given Mu Xi the matter of Kyoto for a period of time, which is also one of the ways for the two to exchange feelings.
After Mu Xi finished calling Mo Jin at night, he made an appointment with the two of them to meet at the old place the next day.
Brilliant is a very famous place in Kyoto, known as "no million-dollar place can't get into". The decoration inside is also worthy of this title, the decoration is splendid, the well-trained waiters wander in the hall, and in front of each box door stands in front of each box, a man and a woman in uniform, two waiters, with a professional smile, and the behavior is very decent.
"Mu Dashao, please come here." The manager rarely went into battle in person today, and his round body was magically bent into ninety degrees, and he respectfully took Mu Xi to the top box. There were two young men sitting inside, one holding a glass of red wine in his hand, swaying one leg up, and telling some jokes aloud.
"Kong He, I heard that you lost money some time ago, it's really rare~Tut-tut~" Shi Duan looked at the small hair of the depressed pawn in front of him with a wicked smile, and deliberately poked at the sore spot.
"Fuck off." Kong He's eyes widened and he glared at Shi Duandan, let out a heavy 'hum', and took a big sip of the wine in the cup by the way.
"I want to know too," Mu Xi heard as soon as he stepped through the door, and immediately cut off his beard, and then said to the manager behind him, "You go down." ”
The manager brought the door to the door and saw that the three people in the room were chatting happily, and he was very tired.
Kong He Chaotian rolled his eyes, speechless. How did he come across this kind of small hair, friend!
"What is a loss, it's just a lot of bleeding," thinking of the loss some time ago, Kong He was also in pain, distress, and pain everywhere, "You don't know, that Ross family is simply a vampire, and they can't wait to suck our small group dry, and there is no blood left." ”
Kong He said hatefully, thousands of thoughts flashed in his heart, and finally sighed helplessly and continued: "I can see it clearly, this family, once it starts a fire, it is simply not human. With the power of one family, it has set off an economic crisis all over the world. It's awesome, one day I can do this, tsk~"
"How do you know?" Mu Xi raised his eyebrows, skeptical of his friend's sentence 'With the power of a family, he actually set off an economic crisis in the world'.
"The whole world knows that the group with roots in the United States knows it!" Kong He sent a pair of health balls again, and then lamented again that he had lived too miserably.
Mu Xi and Shi Duan looked at each other, especially helpless. The Roth family has also heard that none of the oldest families in the United States specialize in the economy, and it is normal to have strong economic strength.
However, the two of them directly ignored Kong He's lofty ambitions, the Roth family is a family that has lasted for thousands of years, is it something that ordinary people can achieve!
