Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Young Man Doesn't Know His Sorrow (19)
Mu Xun raised his hand and scratched his head, smiled embarrassedly, and then asked: "Before, you said that Xu Che's appearance is very similar to one of your old friends, but when I asked you who this friend is, you don't want to tell me..."
As he spoke, he stepped down and sat on the chair beside Mu Beiting, and said gloomily: "You have never mentioned your past to me, I don't know what you have experienced in the past, and I don't know why you took me to leave my hometown and come here, even... I don't even know where my deceased mother was... Daddy, I'm not a kid anymore, I want to know everything about you, can you tell me about your past?"
Mu Beiting listened quietly to his son's words, slowly lowered his head, as if he wanted to deliberately avoid his son's burning gaze, and only after a while did he sigh faintly: "The reason why I didn't tell you those past events is indeed that I have the intention to hide it." First, I really don't want to mention the sad past, and second, I don't want you to bear the pain caused by those past..."
The two looked at each other, one sincere and eager, the other kind and sad.
After looking at each other, Mu Beiting closed his eyes again and sighed, "Well, you have to know after all..."
Seeing that his long-cherished wish was about to be fulfilled, Mu Xun only felt that his heart was surging with blood, and his heart began to beat wildly, urging urgently: "Say it quickly!"
Unexpectedly, Mu Beiting cut off the conversation at this moment and said: "Let me finish speaking, but I don't have to rush to know those past events at this moment, just wait for you to come to my study after returning from the appointment today, and I will tell you slowly then." ”
Mu Xun thought that since his father had agreed, there was no need to rush at this moment, so he nodded and responded, "Then when will we go to the appointment?"
Mu Beiting said: "I have asked people to prepare congratulatory gifts, and I will leave later." ”
As the two were talking, they saw the previous servant walk in with a beautifully packaged gift box in each hand, and said, "Master, this is a congratulatory gift you have prepared." ”
Mu Xun stepped forward to catch it, swiped it in his hand, and said with a smile: "Your congratulatory gift is streamlined, is it tea?"
Mu Beiting waved his hand and motioned for the servant to retreat, and asked, "What's the matter?
Mu Xun smiled slyly and said, "That's not it, it's just that the thought that these tea leaves are going to be poisoned by that Mu Gongzi makes me really unhappy." ”
Mu Beiting restrained his smile and said, "I was about to tell you, when you get to Mu Mansion later, you just have to be a dumb person, and I will deal with everything no matter what, do you know?"
Mu Xun pursed his lips, widened his eyes, and nodded vigorously.
Mu Beiting was amused by his funny expression, laughed out loud, and scolded: "You stinky boy, come with me." ”
Mu Xun was still silent, but made a gesture of please sideways. Mu Beiting was helpless, raised his foot and kicked his son lightly, and went out of the house first.
There was nothing to say all the way, and when the Mu family father and son approached the Mu Mansion, they saw that there was already a sea of people outside the mansion, and the people who were waiting to enter the mansion were side by side, lining up one by one to enter the door.
Mu Beiting looked at the dense crowd of people in front of him, and smiled helplessly in his heart, but then he also pulled Mu Xun to integrate into this flow of people, he just took two steps, and hurriedly turned around and glanced at Mu Xun, signaling Mu Xun to follow him.
When he got closer, Mu Beiting clearly saw Feng Yishan who was standing at the door of the mansion to greet guests, and at this moment, Feng Yishan also seemed to be aware of Mu Beiting's gaze, he turned his head sharply and looked at the Mu family father and son, immediately raised his eyebrows and smiled, walked down the steps quickly, separated everyone with his hands, and walked towards the location where Mu Beiting was.
As soon as the three of them met, Feng Yishan smiled heartily: "Brother Mu, you are finally here, but it really makes the old man wait!" He turned his eyes to Mu Xun and said, "Presumably this is Ling Gongzi." Well, it's really a handsome and dashing young man. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to make an invitation, and then said, "Two of you, please." ”
Mu Beiting clasped his fists and saluted: "Dare to wait with Feng seniors, I am really panicked. Senior please!"
Then Feng Yishan parted ways in front of the head, and the father and son of the Mu family followed closely behind him, and the three of them walked into the Mu Mansion in the stunned eyes of others.
Just as Mu Beiting was about to step into the mansion gate, he vaguely heard a whispered complaint in his ears: "Who are these two people?
If this sentence is heard by others, it will definitely be self-proud, after all, it can be regarded as a great honor to be able to get the courtesy of the Mu family.
However, when these words fell into Mu Beiting's ears, he could only smile bitterly, and secretly said in his heart: "Alas, if I had a choice, I would rather sit at home than come here..."
Entering the courtyard, Feng Yishan kept leading the Mu family father and son to a secluded place in the north.
Mu Beiting saw that the road was getting more and more deviated, and he was suspicious, so he blurted out and asked, "Senior Feng, where are we going?"
Feng Yishan turned around and said with a smile: "Brother Mu's chivalrous name is powerful and powerful, spreading thousands of miles away, Grandpa Guo learned that you were coming, but he was very happy, so that as long as the old man waits for you to come, he must lead you to meet him as soon as possible." ”
Mu Beiting said: "I'm a vulgar person, and I can be treated by the grandfather of the country, I'm really scared." ”
Feng Yishan said: "With the talent of the elder brother, you should be the dragon and phoenix among people, but don't be arrogant." After a pause, he said, "Let's go quickly, don't let Grandpa Guo wait for a long time." ”
The three of them walked for a while, and after passing through a long corridor with water, they finally stopped in front of a two-story attic with carved beams.
Feng Yishan stepped forward and said loudly: "Grandpa Yuguo, the hero of Mu Beiting and his son have arrived!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the attic opened with a "squeak", and then a servant came out of the door, and after bowing to Feng Yishan, he said, "Grandpa Guo, please come to the building to talk." ”
Feng Yishan turned sideways to make a petition and said, "The two of you, please." ”
Mu Beiting hurriedly replied, and Mu Xun on the side also followed his father's appearance and owed a debt, but he thought in his heart: "The red tape of this official eunuch's house is really uncomfortable, I will have to find a gap to slip away first..."
The three of them entered the building, and the eyes of the Mu family father and son quickly looked around, only to see that the entire first floor was extremely open, and four eye-catching white marble pillars stood in the four corners of the building, which were full of gorgeous patterns, and the style was dignified; There is also a drawing carpet on the ground, and walking on it, every foot is soft and comfortable.
After a hurried glance, the eyes of the Mu family father and son finally fell on an old man sitting at the round table in the east head.
I saw that the old man had white hair and a very great appearance, and he was dressed in embroidered purple silk cedar, showing a luxurious bearing, although he had not yet spoken, but his heroic spirit had been revealed through the smile between his eyebrows.
