Chapter 218: The Man Who Can't Be Mentioned
"What! Brother Boyuan has died!" Liu Huaiyong stood up and exclaimed, his body trembling slightly because of his emotion!
"I didn't expect to say goodbye to Brother Boyuan back then, and today I will be separated by heaven and man!" After speaking, his eyes were slightly red, and he couldn't help himself. Slightly distracted for a while, Liu Huaiyong's loneliness was fully revealed, and he said: "I see the young man in front of me again, and I often hear that the old man has died, alas, I am also old! ”
Wu Jin and Mu Xue stood up and clasped their fists with both hands and said, "Thank you, Uncle Liu!"
Liu Huaiyong nodded, then moved his gaze to Mu Xue's face, frowned, and said, "Mu Xue, what's the matter with the injury on your face?
As soon as Mu Xue heard this, she felt that Liu Huaiyong had the intention of avenging her, it seems that this Uncle Liu is really a temperamental person, fortunately he didn't tell him the real reason for his parents' death, otherwise this Uncle Liu might really want to go to Taiyi to seek revenge immediately!
"An hour later, the thieves robbed him of his property and wounded him. Mu Xue said.
Liu Huaiyong said angrily: "These thieves are really bold. Liu Huaiyong probably thought that he was injured by the thief, and he couldn't find someone to take revenge, so he said to Mu Xue again: "Mu Xue, don't worry, I will definitely find a famous doctor and medicine to heal your scars for you." ”
After hearing this, Mu Xue was shocked and moved, she didn't expect Uncle Liu to care so much about herself, and she wanted to find a famous doctor for herself, so she immediately said: "Mu Xue thank Uncle Liu." ”
Liu Huaiyong nodded, and then said: "You guys take a rest here first, and I'll ask Uncle Zhang to take you to the guest room to rest in a while, I'm a little unwell, go and rest first." After speaking, he instructed Uncle Zhang to take care of Wu Jin and Mu Xue, and then got up and walked back, but the footwork was no longer as windy as when they first met, and they were a little faltering.
After Wu Jin and Mu Xue finished drinking tea, they asked Uncle Zhang to take them to the guest room, Uncle Zhang led the way in front and walked on a long and narrow corridor, Uncle Zhang said while walking: "I have been in Fengqi Wushan Villa for fifteen years, and I have often heard my lord mention your father over the years, and your father is still a generation higher than the owner of my family, but the two have the same temperament, so they worship as brothers." The owner regards Mu Boyuan as a lifelong confidant, when he traveled the world with your father, so my lord also met Mrs. Mu Anran, the lord often sighed if it was not for the door different, he would definitely invite Boyuan brother to live in Wuzhou, fifteen years ago Mrs. died, the owner was grief-stricken, dismissed all the servants, the owner only left me to take care of Anya, and now suddenly heard that the confidant has died, I am afraid that it is a tide of grief, so I neglected the two and left first. ”
Wu Jin and Mu Xue were also sad after hearing this, and Mu Xue said: "Uncle Liu is a person who values love and righteousness, and this also makes me feel uneasy. ”
Uncle Zhang sighed and said, "Miss Mu Xue doesn't have to worry about it, my lord will definitely treat you as his own daughter." ”
At this moment, a woman appeared in the corridor, about twenty-five or sixteen years old, wearing a plaid dress and holding a rattle in her hand.
It's just that it doesn't look like a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old person, but like a child
The woman ran in front of Uncle Zhang, and suddenly threw herself into Uncle Zhang's arms, pouting and saying, "Uncle Zhang, I want to eat sugar gourds." ”
Uncle Zhang touched the woman's head and said, "Sugar gourds are only available on the street, how can there be them at home?" When the woman heard this, she pushed Uncle Zhang away, and she cried, crying and saying: "I don't, I want to eat sugar gourds, I want to eat sugar gourds." ”
Uncle Zhang had no choice but to say: "Anya, don't cry, I'll sell you sugar gourds in a while." The woman immediately stopped crying, said "yes" in a milky voice, and burst into laughter.
Wu Jin and Mu Xue were so surprised to see this woman's actions, they were very puzzled, Uncle Zhang glanced at Wu Jin and Mu Xue, and said: "This is Mrs. Liu's personal maid, she was an orphan, Mrs. took her in and treated her very well, just like her own sister, and named her Mu Anya, but she saw Mrs. dystocia and hemorrhage with her own eyes, and died in her arms, she suffered great stimulation in her heart, and she lost her heart and went crazy, and since then she has behaved like a child." ”
Wu Jin and Mu Xue understood, nodded at Uncle Zhang, and looked at Anya, Anya also looked at Wu Jin and Mu Xue with his eyes, and suddenly jumped forward and reached out to touch the scar on Mu Xue's face, and said, "Does my sister hurt?"
Mu Xue couldn't help but laugh dumbly, although this Anya is Mrs. Liu's maid, but Mrs. Liu has regarded her as her sister, then she should be Mu Xue's elder, and now she calls Sister Mu Xue upside down, which makes Mu Xue a little embarrassed.
At this time, Uncle Zhang said: "She still calls me Grandpa Zhang, you don't have to be embarrassed." ”
Mu Xue smiled helplessly, turned back to Anya and said, "It doesn't hurt, you like to eat sugar gourds." ”
Anya nodded and said, "Well, the sugar gourd is sweet, when Grandpa Zhang buys it for me, I'll give you one to eat." Mu Xue smiled and said, "I'll buy it for you in the future, and buy a lot of sugar gourds for you to eat." ”
As soon as Anya heard this, she grabbed Mu Xue's hand and jumped up, and said happily: "Great, great, sister, you are too good." The three of them looked at Anya so innocent, and their hearts were also a little sour.
After the three of them were silent for a while, Uncle Zhang pushed open the door of a room next to him and said to Mu Xue: "Miss Mu Xue, this is your room, I will take Wu Jin to his room." ”
Mu Xue was about to enter the house, but Anya grabbed Mu Xue and said, "Sister, I'll take you to catch crickets, there are a lot of crickets in the yard." ”
Uncle Zhang turned around and pretended to be angry and said, "Anya, my sister is coming from afar, I want to take a break, you can go play by yourself." Anya looked unhappy, and stood there in a daze without speaking or letting go.
Seeing this, Mu Xue said to Uncle Zhang: "It's okay, I'll play with her for a while." Uncle Zhang shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay," and was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered something, and then said to Mu Xue: "Don't take Anya to the handle hall to play, she doesn't like to see the owner of Liu Zhuang, and when she sees the owner of Liu Zhuang, she will talk nonsense." ”
Mu Xue was puzzled and asked, "Why doesn't she like to see Lord Liu?" Uncle Zhang said: "She blames Lord Liu for failing to save his wife, and has a grudge against him. After listening to this, Mu Xue nodded to Uncle Zhang, Anya next to her couldn't wait, pulled up Mu Xue, and walked happily to the courtyard, Uncle Zhang shook his head helplessly, and walked to the other side with Wu Jin.
Wu Jin and Mu Xue lived in Fengqi Wuzhuang, probably because of Anya, Liu Huaiyong rarely came to the backyard, and Liu Huaiyong asked Mu Xue and Wu Jin to eat with him every day in the holding hall, and asked them to warm up, really caring about the two of them, Wu Jin and Mu Xue were a little sorry in their hearts because they did not tell the truth about the cause of their parents' deaths.
Anya's side, except for meal time, she will go to Uncle Zhang, and as long as she sees Mu Xue and Wu Jin at other times, she will come up and pester him to play with her, and she doesn't have much time to have a good time with Mu Xue and Wu Jin, Uncle Zhang also deliberately opened a door in the backyard, and took Anya out from the door of the backyard, so as not to meet Liu Huaiyong.
On this day, Anya came to Mu Xue's room to play again, after Uncle Zhang told Anya, Mu Xue was very curious about Anya, Anya has always resented the owner of Liuzhuang in her heart, and Mu Xue also wanted to try to help Anya untie the knot in her heart, which can be regarded as repaying the kindness of the owner of Liuzhuang for taking him in.
Anya was running and playing in Mu Xue's room, so Mu Xue pulled Anya over and sat on the stool, and said to her: "Anya, my sister has something to ask you, if you answer me seriously, my sister will buy sugar gourds for you to eat, okay?"
Anya blinked her eyes, and when she heard that there was a sugar gourd, she said in a loud voice: "Okay, good!"
Mu Xue asked, "Why do you hate Lord Liu?"
Anya's eyes widened, her face was inexplicable, and she said, "Who is the owner of Liu Village?"
