Chapter 7: The Secret of the Third Uncle

Turning the corner, Mu Qingwan looked at the direction Mu Sanye left, and a glimmer of light flashed in her mind.

"Follow up and find out where the third uncle went."

Mu Qingwan whispered, and saw an inconspicuous person nearby, quietly following in the direction of Mu Sanye.

As early as after knowing that Mu Sanye was suddenly promoted to the official career, Mu Qingwan had an intuition in her heart that this third uncle might have a lot of secrets. Before, Second Master Mu and Mrs. Mu didn't let themselves interfere in Aunt Li's affairs, could it be related to Third Master Mu?

Mu Qingwan is no longer a novice five years ago, and he is not at the mercy of others without a guard of honor, so what's the harm in checking him?

Although the Anping Hou Mansion did not have much contact with the people in the front yard in the past, but now, the daughters in the house are basically married, and the An family, who has been making trouble, has also suffered a stroke, and the Anping Hou Mansion is a little depressed and cold, and the people are also a little loose, lazily grinding foreign workers.

When Mu Qingwan returned to the Anping Marquis Mansion, she saw such a scene, the Anping Marquis Mansion was in decline, I don't know why, such a sentence suddenly appeared in my heart.

"Hey, woman, come over to the master."

When Mu Jun saw Mu Qingwan's appearance, he immediately lifted his spirits and shouted at Mu Qingwan with his nostrils up.

At this time, Mu Jun's son was standing in the corridor, holding his hands on his chest, obviously looking proud, but Mu Qingwan felt that he was a little pitiful.

The Anping Hou Mansion still doesn't know if it can be passed on again, Mu Sanye has no intention of the Hou Mansion, waiting for the old Hou Ye to be a hundred years later, it is inevitable to divide the family. But Marquis Anping has long known that Dafang is not his own flesh and blood, and the title is destined to have no chance with Dafang, and now he is in a state of disregard. Uncle Mu himself has nothing to do, so what is left for Mu Jun? What would a crooked child look like if he fell down one day?

"Come here, what did I call you?"

Mu Jun saw that Mu Qingwan didn't react, and was a little angry.

Mu Qingwan didn't want to pay attention to the spoiled child, and walked straight forward.

"Hey, don't go, don't go......"

Mu Jun shouted behind Mu Qingwan, but what was the use.

Mu Qingwan went to Mrs. Mu's yard.

After the bride entered the door, Mrs. Mu, who was the mother-in-law, did not take Qiao, but happily handed over the housekeeper of the second room to the sister-in-law, so Mrs. Mu is now very leisurely, raising flowers every day, drinking tea, and teasing her grandson.

In Mu Qingwan's view, Mrs. Mu is obviously not yet forty years old, and she is living a retired life. The advantage of returning to the capital is that Mu Qingwan felt that she was a child in front of her father and mother, and only then did she feel that she had a home.

……

"Miss."

Mu Qingwan sat quietly at the table in her room, and the person standing in front of her was the person who had been ordered to follow Mu Sanye today.

"Tell me, what did you find?"

"Miss really expects things like a god, Mu Sanye really has a secret, if it is exposed, it will definitely cause a lot of waves in the Anping Marquis Mansion."

"Oh? Say. ”

The subordinates quietly followed Mu Sanye, and saw that Mu Sanye finally entered a house in the deep alley. The subordinates didn't dare to make a noise, so they inquired around. That house is the outer room of Mu Sanye, and it has been raised for some years. It is said that the outer room has given birth to a son and two daughters for Mu Sanye. The eldest child was a daughter, who was also said to be fifteen years old. On weekdays, Mu Sanye only goes once in a while, but recently the number of visits is more frequent, I heard that there is also a famous matchmaker in the capital recently, and the subordinates suspect that it is because of the marriage of the eldest daughter, I am afraid that there is something wrong between Mu Sanye and the outer room. ”

Does Mu Sanye have an outer room? Mu Qingwan was surprised when she learned the news!

Mu Sanye also has a concubine in the Hou Mansion, and he also gave birth to two daughters, but why do you want to keep people outside? I already knew that the identity of an outer room was even lower than that of my aunt. What's more, that person also gave birth to a son to Mu Sanye, why didn't he give that woman a name? Mu Qingwan felt that there was something strange in it.

"Send someone to keep an eye on the people in the house, don't make a noise first, if there is anything unusual, report it immediately."

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

After letting people withdraw, Mu Qingwan was thinking about how to deal with Mu Sanye's affairs. Finally, I thought about it, after all, this is Mu Sanye's privacy, if there is no damage to his own people, put it aside for the time being.

"Miss, the Jin Mansion sent an invitation."

Ruyi came in and handed the invitation to Mu Qingwan.

"Auction?"

Li Ying will hold an auction tomorrow, and it is said that there will be an auction of the treasures of the Fusheng Master, and Jin Ling'er invited Mu Qingwan to go with her. The old lady of Jin Mansion is about to celebrate her sixtieth birthday, and Jin Ling'er wants to take pictures of the works of the floating master and give them to the old lady Jin as a birthday gift.

Mu Qingwan had never been to Li Ying's auction, so she wrote back to Jin Ling'er and would definitely be able to attend on time tomorrow.

The next day, estimated the time, Mu Qingwan set off. and Jin Ling'er first met in Yipinju, changed into men's clothes, disguised themselves, and then entered the auction hall together.

Li Ying opened an auction house in the capital, and compared to her pastry business, which ended dismally, the auction house's business is still good. At the beginning, the business did encounter troubles, such as the exclusion of major pawnshops and pawn shops in the capital, and later it is said that after the four princes became shareholders, the business only gained a firm foothold.

Li Ying's cooperation with the four princes is tantamount to seeking skin with the tiger. In Mu Qingwan's inside information, the auction house's Lisuo, the fourth prince and Li Ying are seventy-three open, and the fourth prince occupies seventy percent of the profits in vain.

In a territory like Beijing, if there is no one or force behind the major shops, it is difficult to gain a foothold. Therefore, such a thing as written in the crossing is that the crossing woman can make a fortune at every turn, which is not realistic at all.

Mu Qingwan's several businesses in the capital are all powerful and shareworthy.

For example, the treasure building, which has the shares of the Dingguo Mansion in it, the income of Linlang Pavilion is the largest, and Mu Qingwan is a monopoly, but it also borrows the momentum of the Zhenguo General's Mansion......

When Mu Qingwan and Jin Ling'er arrived at the auction house, there were already a lot of people here. The two of them ended up in the box.

The auction house has a hall and a box, and the people who can enter the box are naturally the people who can afford to pay for it.

"There are so many people here today!"

There was a crowd of people below, Mu Qingwan leaned closer to the window and looked out, and couldn't help muttering.

"Afraid of what? I brought enough money with me this time. ”

Jin Ling'er drank tea slowly, not worried.

Mu Qingwan shrugged her shoulders and sat back.

On the side of the box, there was still a man sitting quietly, the man was not listening to Mu Qingwan and Jin Ling'er talking, but lowered his head and looked seriously at the book he was holding in his hand, but from time to time he nervously glanced at Jin Ling'er, this person was Jin Ling'er's son-in-law.

"Ah Feng, drink tea and eat snacks."

Jin Ling'er took out a distraction and gave food to the man from time to time, obviously two people who were not very compatible, Mu Qingwan actually felt that the aura of the two people was very harmonious.
