Chapter 57: The Boy (150 Additions)
"What?"
"Are you looking for Brother Seven?"
"You want to see the seventh brother?!"
The teenagers and girls gathered around the door to watch the excitement on their faces.
The young man's gaze became more and more hot, and the girls looked at Mu Wu with blushing faces.
The sudden burst of enthusiasm made Mu Wu's body tense slightly, and she tried hard to recall the information she had about the Xia family.
The Xia family lives next to each other, the family is quite united, most of the brothers and sisters live in the ancestral house of the Xia family, because the ancestors are still there, they have not been separated, not to mention that the ancestors of the Xia family are not separated, and there is only one way for future generations to move out of the ancestral house - to leave.
Mu Wu had heard that it was said that she could not even wear a single piece of clothing, and that she could not enter the ancestral grave after death.
It is precisely because of this ancestral precept that the wealth accumulated by the Xia clan over the years is relatively concentrated, forming a huge commercial guild.
It is said that Xia's Commercial Bank is one of the top three major commercial banks in Beizhili, because of its strength on paper, and when it comes to mobilizing the wealth resources of the entire family at once, it is difficult for any commercial firm in the world to compare with Xia's Commercial Bank.
The Xia family who live together inevitably stumbles, fighting with each other openly and secretly, but when they look down and don't see each other, they look up and see each other, small contradictions are easy to resolve, and no one wants to live a life of anger.
The children of the Xia family have been fighting together since they were children, but they are even closer.
Regardless of the side branches, the rank of the integrated order, as long as the talent is revealed, the elders of the Xia clan will cultivate it, which is also the foundation for the Xia family to become stronger and stronger.
In her previous life, Mu Wu felt that the strength of the Xia family was different from that of the previous firms.
However, at that time, she was a major general, and she was also a heavyweight of the Xia family.
This is also one of the reasons why Mu Wu dared to come to the door to talk about cooperation with the Xia family.
At the beginning, she chose Xia's firm against public opinion and cooperated with them several times.
Xia's firm did not disappoint her, and of course, Xia's firm also took root in the northwest because of her support and acquiescence.
After that victory, the Silk Road was reopened, and Xia's firm should have expanded a lot of strength by virtue of the opportunity to lead others.
It's just that she didn't expect that in her previous life, the patriarch of the Xia clan invited her to the mansion several times, but she refused because of her busy military affairs, and in this life she can be regarded as a leader in the demeanor of the women of the Xia family.
I was a little more curious about Xia Wuye's wife Xia Wang, who dared to carry a sword to kill.
By the way, the maiden brother of the Xia Wang family is...... Yes, it's Jianghu people.
Xia Wuye was rescued by the Xia Wang clan when he was going to buy and sell at that time, and then ...... Then they broke through the layers of barriers and went to the church to get married.
This is also the reason why Xia Wuye, who is obviously very capable, has not mastered a certain aspect of the family's business until today, and his wife does not have enough support, so you can rely on your own efforts to win status and power in the family.
The Xia family will not force the children of the family to marry, but if you don't want the family to manipulate your marriage, show your determination and strength first!
Mu Wu silently combed through the information of the Xia family she had, she was not a major general, why were the young girls of the Xia family more eeriely enthusiastic?
"Seven...... Ahem, isn't the Seventh Young Master anymore? ”
Mu Wu could only guess that the blazing eyes of the group of people made her feel a little 'uneasy', "Then I'll come back another day." ”
"Wait." One of them, a young man who was a few years older than Xia Qiqi, stood up and looked at Mu Wu for a long time, nodding for a while, and shaking his head for a while.
The teenagers behind him urged in a low voice, "Fifth brother, hurry up and ask." ”
What to ask?
Mu Wu felt that she should really look at the yellow calendar when she went out today, and everything would not go well if the carriage broke down in the middle of the road, but Mu Wu had to admit that it was precisely because of these youthful teenagers in front of her that she remembered the memories of once riding a horse and whipping and hunting and frolicking with her comrades, diluting a lot of sentimentality after seeing Mu Shizi.
"Fifth brother, it should be her."
Among the girls crowded together, a seven or eight-year-old girl stood out, combing her hair and wearing a red jacket, chubby and very cute, "I sneaked into Seventh Brother's study and saw his portrait, Seventh Brother is so fierce, found out that I peeked at the portrait, and threw me out directly." ”
The little girl playfully stuck out her tongue, took a short step and ran to Mu Wu's side, tilted her head, blinked her round eyes, and blushed, "You are better looking than the person painted by the seventh brother." ”
The soft and sweet little girl made Mu Wu's heart soften, and she said softly, "You are also very cute, you are a little lady." ”
The little girl's smile was sweeter.
"Big sister, Xun'er likes you."
Mu Wan rubbed the broken hair on her forehead, and the little girl became more and more dependent on Mu Wu.
found another teahouse, and Liu Saburo, who was leaning against the window, couldn't help but clench the scroll in his hand, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
"Son, she's still a child."
The scholar dutifully comforted his son-in-law, but his scalp was numb by Liu Saburo's deep gaze, and he only heard Liu Saburo say: "Go back and recite the mean to me again." ”
“……”
The scholar can't wait to give himself a slap, it's okay to have more mouths.
In the mean, it's hard to carry it on your back, let alone backwards.
He doesn't have the ability of his son to remember and memorize backwards.
Liu Saburo's words made the scholar shrink into the corner, and no one would comfort him anymore, sprinkled salt on his 'wound', lowered his eyelids and carefully looked at the books when he was preparing for the exam, don't look at his confidence in front of Uncle Cheng and Mu Wu, he clearly knew that there were many talented students in the undergraduate imperial examination.
If you want to win the Toad Palace, you have to put in more effort than others.
As Mu Wu said, the competition in the undergraduate program is fierce and unprecedented, and there are not many talented students.
Originally, he didn't plan to participate in the undergraduate imperial examination, because he didn't need to fight with these students for the opportunity to enter the official career.
Even if he wins the top prize, what does it mean?
However, he couldn't see Mu Shilang's admiration for Chen Shilang, as if Chen Shilang would be successful, of course, Liu Saburo didn't think that Chen Shilang would fall off the list, but Chen Shilang wanted to win the champion, and then marry Mu Shilang...... Get past him first!
Looking at the situation at the gate of the Xia Mansion, Liu Saburo stroked his forehead, Mu Wu knows the children of the Xia family, and they are still the sons of the Xia family!
What does the group of teenagers around Mu Wu mean?
*****
"Are you really the mysterious girl who saved the fifth uncle and the seventh brother?"
The young man who stood up looked incredulous, touched his head and said, "I secretly inquired about the fifth uncle, and the fifth uncle said that you will always come to the door." ”
"The Seventh Young Master said about me?" Mu Wu didn't feel that Xia Qi, who was so proud, would take the initiative to mention himself, after all, Xia Qi didn't behave very well at the moment of crisis.
And he always suspected that she was a girl.
Mu Wu felt that Xia Qi's eyes were not very good, how did she not look like a girl.
"The seventh brother didn't say anything, but ......," the boys grinned, "we all asked the fifth uncle (uncle), but he wouldn't tell us, and we didn't tell him that he already knew everything!" ”
