Xu Che saw Mu Xun's excited expression, and was slightly surprised in his heart, and said: "It's just a servant who sent a letter, I asked him what was the matter, he didn't say to me, only said that he wanted to tell you father and son in person, I saw that he looked anxious, lest there was something big, so he ran to Mu Mansion to summon the news." ”

Mu Xun couldn't suppress his joy, pulled Xu Che up and ran in the direction of the attic, saying as he ran: "My father is in the attic in front, let's go find him!"

Mu Xun was windy under his feet, running extremely fast, Xu Che couldn't keep up with his pace, and he was dragged into the air by him just a few steps after running out, as if he was a kite being put into the sky, that scene was extremely funny.

In a few moments, the two of them ran (floated) to the attic door. However, at this time, the door of the attic was still closed, and the reflection of the building was about to laugh and talk.

Mu Xun put Xu Che aside, stepped forward and knocked on the door, Xu Che stood aside with bared teeth and shook his sore arm, and scolded in his heart: "Isn't it great that you run fast? Why don't you go to heaven?

The door of the attic opened in response, and Mu Beiting walked out first, followed by Mu Chaofu, who was in a wheelchair, and Feng Yishan, who was pushing and supporting a wheelchair.

Mu Xun saw his father going out, and hurriedly greeted him to report: "Dad, at home... Someone is looking for us, let's go home quickly!" He wanted to say it bluntly, but when he saw someone else on his side, he only said "someone" instead.

Mu Beiting Qi said: "Someone is looking for us? are you..."He originally wanted to ask, "How do you know" but in a blink of an eye, he saw Xu Che on the side, and his heart suddenly understood.

Seeing this, Mu Chaofu said with a smile: "Since there is something in the family, let's go back and take a look first, but be sure to rush back before the banquet in the evening, Brother Fool is waiting for you to announce the happy event to everyone." As he spoke, he glanced at Mu Xun and said, "Ling Lang, please also be present." ”

Mu Beiting nodded and responded: "Then the little brother will retire first, and come back to see the elder brother in the evening." ”

When Mu Chaofu and Feng Yishan retreated into the building, Mu Xun asked anxiously: "How does Grandpa Mu call you a virtuous brother? Could it be that you have bowed to him?"

Mu Beiting didn't answer, but only asked, "Who is looking for someone in the family?"

Mu Xun whispered: "It's someone from my mother's family who came, saying that there was something to inform our father and son..."

Mu Beiting's body was shocked, and he asked nervously, "Where is the person who delivered the letter?"

Mu Xun said: "Now I am waiting for us at home." ”

Mu Beiting didn't hesitate any longer, and after saying "go quickly", the figure flickered, and in an instant, he walked to the entrance of the water corridor. Mu Xun also hurriedly chased after him, but he didn't take two steps out of the run, and suddenly turned around and shouted at Xu Che: "Let's take a step first, and you will come slowly." As soon as he finished speaking, the figure disappeared in a flash.

Xu Che looked at the fleeting two people dumbfounded, his heart was full of envy, and he sighed after a while: "You can all soar through the clouds, only I have to go step by step, alas..."

Mu Beiting was the first to return home, as soon as he walked into the door, he was stopped by Aunt Wang, who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time, and she said urgently: "Ouch, my lord, you can be regarded as back, Brother Liu who delivered the letter is waiting for you in the hall!"

Mu Beiting's footsteps did not stop, he flashed sideways, and at the same time answered casually, and ran straight to the main hall, he just walked on his front foot, and Mu Xun, who followed closely, also rushed straight to the main hall.

In the main hall, Ah Liu was pacing back and forth, his face was full of anxiety, and when he heard footsteps, he hurriedly raised his eyes and looked at the door, but saw a gray shadow flashing outside the door, and Mu Beiting had already appeared in front of him.

Ah Liu looked at Mu Beiting, stunned for a while, and after carefully looking at it, his eyes suddenly became sour, and he choked up: "Uncle, master... He's seriously ill in bed, I'm afraid time is running out!"

On the way here, Mu Beiting also had a guess in his heart, and although he had confirmed that his guess was correct, he still couldn't believe it, so he asked, "Yue... His old man's health has always been strong, why did he suddenly become critically ill? Could it be that he was suffering from some kind of emergency?"

As soon as he spoke, he suddenly felt speechless, after all, he and this father-in-law had not seen each other for more than 20 years, so how could he talk about the word "always".

Ah Liu didn't seem to realize it, held back his tears, shook his head and said, "It's not caused by a sudden illness. It was the winter of the previous year, the old man accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the water when he was walking in the garden, so he frostbitten the lung lobes, and since then, the body began to become weak and weak, sometimes in the dog days will also be cold and cold, Mrs. has also visited the famous doctor to prescribe prescriptions for the old man, but unfortunately with little effect, as the days drag on for a long time, the old man's body is getting weaker and weaker.

"On the fourth day of the first month of last month, the old man suddenly fainted in the room when he got up early, and fortunately the maid at home found it in time, and finally rescued him after a needle administration, but after this incident, the old man lost his ability to move, and his mind was also sober for a while, and he was confused for a while. After that, Mrs. spent a lot of money to gather famous doctors from all over Jiangnan to consult the master, but after the diagnosis, they were all unanimous - the master was on the verge of extinguishing the candle, even if he tried his best to use medicine, he could live for a year and a half at most. Therefore, Madame ordered me to come and deliver a letter, imploring my uncle to take the little master back to Gusu for a trip, so that the master could see the little young master, so that he could fulfill the wish of the master for the rest of his life. ”

When Mu Xun came to the door of the main hall, he happened to hear Ah Liu start to speak, so he stopped and listened quietly outside the door, but when he heard the last sentence, he could no longer suppress the worry and emotion in his heart, and immediately jumped into the hall and said urgently: "Dad, let's go quickly, maybe I can accompany my grandfather for a few more days!"

Ah Liu looked at the handsome young man in front of him, was stunned for a moment, and then said with great joy: "Little young master! You're so old, do you remember me, you were so big when I hugged you. As he spoke, he gestured with both hands to length.

Shicai waited outside the door, Mu Xun did not see Ah Liu's appearance, at this time, he saw that this person was in the prime of life, although he was short and thin, but he was born with a kind face, which made people feel good at a glance.

But before Mu Xun could reply, Ah Liu suddenly slapped his head again and said, "I'm really confused, you just turned one year old at that time, how can you remember..."

Mu Xun turned his face to look at Mu Beiting, with a look of resentment in his eyes, obviously complaining that his father had hidden too much from him.

Mu Beiting ignored Mu Xun's eyes, and just ordered in a deep voice: "You go and prepare some softness, and then I will set off with your Uncle Liu first." ”

Mu Xunqi said: "What, aren't you going with you?"

Ah Liu also looked at Mu Beiting in surprise.

Mu Beiting explained: "You two go first, I have an urgent matter to deal with in three days, and I will chase you after you after the end." ”

Mu Xun's face suddenly turned displeased, and he complained: "What kind of urgent matter is it? Is it even more urgent than going to see a critically ill loved one!"

Mu Beiting frowned, hesitated quietly, and then explained: "I promised Grandpa Guo that I would compete with others on his behalf in three days, and when I was done, I immediately found a fast horse to travel day and night, but I can catch up with you in a day or two." ”

Mu Xun suddenly smiled coldly, and then said in a weird manner: "No wonder that old man Mu is a virtuous brother, it is really called an intimacy... It turns out that you really worshiped the son and became a brother! Do you really plan to die for him?"

As soon as he heard this, Mu Beiting suddenly became angry, and immediately shouted: "Grandpa Mu and I have the righteousness of worship, naturally it is your elder, you are not allowed to be disrespectful!"

Mu Xun snorted coldly and said, "Do you say that he is willing to bow down to you? In my opinion, he just fell in love with your good martial arts for his use, and he also had the intention of letting you go to take care of the home for him..."

As soon as Mu Beiting saw Mu Xunban's disdainful face, he was immediately furious, and took a step forward at the moment, raised his hand and slapped him over.

This slap was so powerful that Mu Xun was caught off guard, and five bright red fingerprints immediately appeared on the left side of his face.

Mu Xun covered his face, his eyes were full of disbelief, and in an instant, tears loomed, and after glaring at Mu Beiting fiercely, he suddenly turned around and rushed out.
