Chapter 261 Mu Mansion
Chapter 261 Mu Mansion
"Did he really say that?" After hearing Xuan Er's words, Xu Shu swallowed a mouthful of tea and felt uncomfortable.
Seeing Xu Shu's bad expression, Xuan Er changed the subject: "The young lady has returned home with General Qiao, and Mu Ge'er is also at home. The two of them will have someone to take care of them in the future, which is also good."
Xu Shu did not express his opinion, but only asked: "Where does Xiao Mujin live? Do you know the exact location?"
"The lady hasn't sent a message yet..."
As they were talking, a kite flew towards them with its wings flapping. Xu Shu raised his hand and the kite landed steadily on it.
Xu Shu took the envelope off its feet, read it and smiled: "The ancient methods are sometimes useful."
Xuan Er asked him, "What did you say?"
"I told you where Xiao Mujin is now, and I also gave you an extra snack at noon." Xu Shu ate this mouthful of dog food in a depressed mood, thinking secretly in his heart that as soon as it gets dark, he will climb over the wall to see Mu Jinghua.
After hearing this, Xuan Er smiled at Xu Shu embarrassedly.
This Yuan was originally raised by Xu Shu, and the letter was also sent to Xu Shu. The young lady would not care about his meals on a normal day. She mentioned this today just to annoy Xu Shu.
But this feeling of being cared for made Xuan Er retract his fingers slightly, and thinking of his previous deal with Qiao Jianhong, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Xu Shu didn't want to stay here any longer, so he let Yuan go and went out for a walk.
Half an hour later...
Mu Mansion.
Xu Shu looked at the plaque in front of him and fell into deep thought.
Is this a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road? Just strolling around, you can reach the doorstep of your "father-in-law".
But since he was here, Xu Shu glanced at the dark sky, then glanced at the weary-looking doorman standing at the door, and went around to a desolate backyard next to the Mu Mansion.
Seeing that there was no one around, he jumped lightly and flipped in.
-
At the same time, at the Qiao Mansion.
As soon as Qiao Jianhong finished speaking, Mu Jinghua sensed something was wrong and interrupted him mercilessly, "Are you worthy enough?"
He was really angry, and his words were filled with genuine anger. Qiao Jianhong was stunned at first, and then he laughed.
"That's the way it is," he said.
After that, he lifted Mu Jinghua onto his shoulders. Mu Jinghua was so scared that he kept kicking him in the air, but he threatened Mu Jinghua viciously, "If you make trouble again, I'll spank you."
Mu Jinghua's body froze and he dared not move.
Seeing his reaction, Qiao Jianhong laughed even more happily. Mu Jinghua could feel his chest trembling when he was carried on his shoulders.
This made him feel extremely uncomfortable, but he dared not move. He could only look at Qiao Wan with grievance.
Qiao Wan gave him a bitter smile and immediately restrained her expression.
Mu Jinghua knew what she meant, wait a little longer.
But after returning to the Qiao Mansion, Qiao Jianhong became even more outrageous and directly arranged Mu Jinghua to live next door to him.
Although it is said to be next door, there is actually only a screen between them.
Mu Jinghua had not seen many houses of wealthy families, but he knew that these two rooms, which were separated only by a screen, were actually one room.
Qiao Jianhong wants to sleep in the same room with him?
It's really baffling.
Mu Jinghua sat on the bed sullenly, ignoring the luxurious and low-key decoration around him, and just tapped the table with his fingertips.
Ah Qiao was obviously puzzled by Qiao Jianhong's arrangement, and he also knew that Mu Jinghua would be unhappy. He carefully cut the watermelon, carefully picked out the seeds, and fed it to Mu Jinghua before whispering, "Sir, this is a freshly frozen watermelon. Please have a little."
Mu Jinghua lowered his eyes and glanced at her, showing no interest. He shook his head and asked, "Where is Qiao Wan?"
"The general called me to the lobby." Qiao took back the watermelon in disappointment and answered honestly, "I'm afraid it's not a good thing. When I came, I heard the sound of something being thrown."
"Oh?" Mu Jinghua became interested instantly.
Since Qiao Jianhong deliberately wanted to disgust him, he might as well cause some trouble for Qiao Jianhong.
"Pack up, let's go out."
……
"Sir..." A Qiao looked at the magnificent plaque in front of him and couldn't help but frowned. "The Prime Minister is very busy, I'm afraid he doesn't have time to entertain us."
"How could that be?" Mu Jinghua smiled, took out Qiao Jianhong's jade pendant from his arms, pointed it to A Qiao, and said, "Just say that I was sent by the general."
Ah Qiao was shocked: "This is not what the general carries with him..."
Mu Jinghua interrupted him: "Go quickly."
Ah Qiao responded, but didn't dare to ask more questions, and ran to negotiate with the doorman.
Mu Jinghua narrowed his eyes and saw the doorman nodding and bowing. He knew that the jade pendant was still useful and it was worth it for him to be taken advantage of by Qiao Jianhong.
However, when he meets Xu Shu, he will have to let Xu Shu teach this scoundrel who bullied him a lesson.
Mu Jinghua thought viciously.
Then he saw A Qiao walking towards him. Although his steps were much more steady, his voice was still trembling: "Sir, please."
Mu Jinghua nodded modestly.
When he was led to the main hall, the servant said that the prime minister wanted to wait for a while and served him tea politely.
Mu Jinghua didn't like drinking tea very much, as he always felt it was bitter, but the tea brought by the servant was sweet, very much like the scented tea that Xu Shu brewed for him.
The color is similar too.
Mu Jinghua was a little curious but was too reserved to ask. But just as he took a sip, Mu Tonghai, who said he would be here later, hurried over.
Perhaps because they had received the news earlier, Mu Tonghai was not surprised to see him. He just frowned and asked him, "Why are you here? What happened to Qiao Jianhong?"
Mu Jinghua had already thought of what to say. Just as he was about to speak, a servant rushed in and said in a panic, "Master, something bad has happened. There's a fire in the ancestral hall."
The ancestral hall is the most important place in the house. When Mu Tonghai heard this, he no longer had the heart to ask Mu Jinghua questions. He just walked out while cursing, "Quick, go get some water."
Mu Jinghua looked at his hurried figure, took another sip of tea, and curled his lips lightly.
Mu Tonghai suddenly turned around and looked at him: "Come with me."
Mu Jinghua said "oh" and didn't mind going to see the fun.
But suddenly a group of people came in a panic, not only pushing him behind the crowd, but also pushing him and Aqiao apart.
A Qiao called him anxiously from the other side: "Young Master, Young Master, are you okay?"
Mu Jinghua was about to respond, but a hand suddenly covered his mouth and pulled him to the dark place nearby.
The man behind him whispered, "Don't be afraid."
Mu Jinghua had a smile in his eyes. He waited calmly for the man to let go before he said with a smile, "Xu Shu!"
