The last touch of gentleness on Cheng Muyou's face disappeared with Aunt Hua's words, he looked at her coldly, but his tone was as calm as deep water, "Do you know that Qingpo has dozens of lives in her hands, and it won't be a loss to exchange her life for one person's life?"
” Hua Gu leaned back on the chair, there was no fear on her face, but there was a hint of mockery, "Everyone is dead, of course adults can say whatever they want, but what I saw with my eyes was that someone in Xin'an Mansion sneaked into my Qifeng Tower, and then my people disappeared, where can I reason with this?"
” Cheng Muyou's face sank, he knew that the evidence in his hand had long disappeared with the death of Qingpo and Yunying, coupled with Aunt Hua's connections in the capital, it was easy to say that white was black, and he lowered his voice, "What do you want?"
” A smile bloomed on Aunt Hua's face, her eyes flickered, and she put her face to Cheng Muyou's ear, "I want land." ” "Ground?"
"Why should adults pretend to be confused, my people have come to Xin'an Mansion a few times, but I can't find adults every time.
The owner of the pear orchard has signed a contract with me, but the government has never approved it, and my hundred or so girls from other lands are still waiting to enter the city. ” Of course, Cheng Muyou knew what she was talking about, half a year ago, Aunt Hua fell in love with a piece of land next to Qifeng Tower, and then she didn't know what dirty means she used to force the owner of that land to agree to sell the land to her.
According to the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, the transfer of land rights needs to be filed with the government, but although Cheng Muyou had just taken office at that time, he had heard about the behavior of Hua Gu, and he avoided the people she sent again and again, so that the land was idle until now, and there was no way to start building buildings.
Cheng Muyou groaned slightly, "Let me think about this matter again......"
"My lord, this is what you have to do with a big stroke, what else is there to consider," Hua Gu said as she took out a contract and put it in front of Cheng Muyou, "I have brought all the land deeds, so I will bother the adults to make it convenient." ” Cheng Muyou stared at the title deed and did not move, his handsome figure seemed to be frozen, and after a long time, Aunt Hua finally showed an impatient look on her face, she pushed the title deed towards Cheng Muyou again, and gently called: "Lord Cheng, it's not too early, the son-in-law of Lord Shi Zhang is still waiting for me to go to eat and drink." ” Cheng Muyou finally raised his head, and a light smile appeared on his face, "Since Aunt Hua has something, then you can go first." ” "That'......
What about this title deed......"
"I don't approve it."
His voice was crisp, like a jade bead falling to the ground.
"Buying and selling houses have been drawn, how can you ...... adults?"
"Aunt Hua is old, is her ear bad, I won't approve what I said."
Cheng Muyou looked at the dumbfounded woman opposite, got up and dusted off his sleeves, and then looked out the door, "It's getting late, Aunt Hua should go back as soon as possible, save the mistake of eating and drinking." ” Hua Gu sneered a few times, stood up from the chair, grabbed the title deed in her hand and walked towards the door, but just took a few steps, she turned around unwillingly, and stared at Cheng Muyou viciously like an eagle foraging for food, "New calf, it's a pity that Xin'an City can't call the shots now, let's settle this account slowly."
After speaking, she strode forward, startled the oncoming little guy, and quickly hid aside.
Cheng Muyou ignored her evil words, he looked coldly at the back of Aunt Hua who was far away, and then turned his gaze to the little guy who was rushing towards him, "What is so in a hurry?"
” "Little boy......
The little boy didn't eat dinner, and cried in the house almost out of breath.
The little guy said that he was about to cry too.
"If you don't eat, you're hungry, you're already enrolled in the school, where can you be so pampered."
Cheng Muyou couldn't see Xun'er's soft personality like a little girl the most, so he never compromised him on trivial matters.
"My lord, the little boy is not playing tricks, he keeps saying that Miss Jiang has an accident, so he can't eat in a hurry."
When Cheng Muyou walked into the house, Xun'er was lying on the bed crying and the pillow was wet, and when he saw Cheng Muyou coming in, he hurriedly ran forward and hugged his thigh, "Daddy, save my sister, she is dying." ” Cheng Muyou hugged him into his arms, frowned and asked, "Why do you say that?"
” "I had a dream just now, I dreamed that my sister was lying in a black hole with blood on her face, her face was so white, her eyes were slightly open, I don't know if she was alive or ......"
After speaking, he hugged Cheng Muyou's neck and cried, and kept saying, "Daddy go and save her, Daddy go and save her." ” Cheng Muyou handed Xun'er to the nurse, and then walked out of the room quickly, and shouted "prepare the horse" to Shi Fei and Shi Jin, who were guarding the door.
"My lord, let's go with the two of us, Xun'er just had a dream, are you going to find Miss Jiang in person?"
"Xun'er's dream is definitely not his own whimsy, the last incident of Xiao Su has confirmed this, besides, three days have passed, unfortunately there is still no news at all, she has never been like this before," Cheng Muyou clenched his fists, "I have to go to Yuquan Town in person to feel at ease."
He glanced at the two brothers behind him, and then said, "I told her not to reveal her identity, so when you get to the Jing family, you must not say anything, remember?"
” Shi Fei Shi Jin nodded desperately, and the three of them took advantage of the night to leave Xin'an City and ran all the way in the direction of Yuquan Town.
It was late at night when they arrived, and a heavy rain fell from the canopy without warning, drenching the three of them.
The Shi brothers escorted Cheng Muyou to hide under an abandoned ancestral hall, looking at the moss-covered green bricks in a daze.
"This rain is not in a hurry, but it is getting heavier and heavier, my lord, let's stay here for the night for the time being, and then go to Jingfu tomorrow morning to check."
Shi Fei took off the clothes on his body and twisted it again and again, and looked around, "But this ancestral hall is so broken, there is no place where you can make a fire." ” "Although it is broken, you can see that this place was once very prosperous, you see that the pink walls and black tiles, the high ridges and cornices, and the arcade columns are all magnificent, gorgeous and elegant," he said, untied the cloak on his body, and took two steps in, "Its cornerstone alone is six feet high, the gate is wide and wide, there are three suites inside, dozens of houses, and it is also full of pines and cypresses, and the ...... of the wall" He stopped suddenly, and looked at the graceful figure under the pink and white wall in front of him with a surprised face, "Miss Yan?"
Why are you here?
” The woman in front of the wall turned her head and focused her eyes on Cheng Muyou, long and profound, "Master Cheng, what a coincidence." ”
