Liang Yujie felt that she was not interested. When she heard Mu Yun's greeting, she nodded obediently.
Mu Yun suddenly had an idea in his mind and quickly added: "By the way, Miss Third, please wait a moment while I go get something."
Liang Yujie agreed, so Mu Yun immediately went back to his room and fetched a scroll in a short time.
The Qu family sisters secretly wondered when they saw this, and Qu Jingjing couldn't help but ask: "Brother Mu likes calligraphy and painting? Is this for Miss Liang?"
Mu Yun smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I can't say that I'm giving it away, I just want it to be returned to its original owner."
Qu Jingjing groaned and said as if she understood: "That's fine. Since Brother Mu likes the little princess, he shouldn't accept gifts from other girls. It's only proper that the things should be returned to their original owners."
Mu Yun was stunned. Before he could explain, Liang Yujie's eyes widened and she couldn't hide her surprise and said, "Ah? Mu Shaoxia doesn't want to be my brother-in-law anymore? Who is that little princess? Is she better than my eldest sister?
?”
Mu Yun was so confused that he had no choice but to say seriously: "Girls, please don't misunderstand me. I am just friends with Miss Liang and have no personal relationship at all. This is absolutely true."
The Qu sisters looked at each other with doubtful expressions, while Liang Yujie suddenly flashed her big innocent eyes and hesitated several times.
Mu Yun had no intention of explaining any more, so he said goodbye to the Qu sisters and took Liang Yujie to Jie Niuxuan.
Yunleixuan and Xieniuxuan are more than ten miles apart. In addition, the mountain road is winding and ups and downs, so the actual distance is close to twenty miles.
Liang Yujie usually practices martial arts lazily and casually, her cultivation is really loose and her physical strength cannot be complimented, so only halfway through, she was out of breath from exhaustion, and her pace became slower and slower.
Mu Yun had deliberately slowed down his pace, but he still overestimated Liang Yujie's lightness skills. Seeing that she couldn't walk anymore, he could only say in harmony: "Miss Third, are you tired? How about we take a rest?"
Liang Yujie's tender face was hot, and she said embarrassedly: "Well, my legs are sore. You walk so fast."
Mu Yun smiled, led Liang Yujie to the roadside, and found a bench to sit down and rest.
It was past afternoon, and the flowers and trees were blooming under the warm sun, and the fragrant aroma was refreshing.
Liang Yujie rested for a while and finally regained her breath. She hesitated and said cautiously: "Mu Shaoxia, do you really not like my eldest sister?"
Mu Yun thought in his mind and said carefully: "The eldest lady is my friend. I admire her very much, but it is not the 'like' that the third lady refers to."
Liang Yujie nodded slowly and said: "It seems that the second sister is right. Grandpa thinks too much, but the eldest sister has always been preoccupied recently. I also thought she has someone she likes."
Mu Yun thought that this was true, but the person Liang Yubing liked was not him, but the "Huangshan Bamboo Gentleman" Zhu Fengyin.
Unfortunately, Zhu Fengyin and Shang Hongxiu had already fallen in love with each other, but Liang Yubing had no intention of falling in love, and the flow of love was ruthless. As a friend, she should resolve it as soon as possible to prevent her from being trapped in it and unable to extricate herself, and even delaying her lifelong happiness.
Mu Yun sighed secretly, and Liang Yujie also had thoughts running around and took the opportunity to inquire: "Sister, I like to write and draw. Mu Shaoxia said before that 'things return to their original owners'. Is this scroll her work?"
Mu Yun nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it should be the eldest lady's handwriting."
Liang Yujie blinked and said, "Why do you say 'should be'? Is Mu Shaoxia not sure?"
Mu Yun hummed, "I heard it from others, so I really can't be sure. This painting was not given by the eldest lady personally, but was found by others."
Liang Yujie was greatly surprised. She grabbed Mu Yun's sleeve and said, "Young Master Mu, don't show off. What's going on? Can you tell me?"
Mu Yun's heart was moved, and he asked instead of answering: "Third Miss, don't worry, are there any distinguished guests coming to the house recently?"
Liang Yujie held her cheek in her hand and recalled: "Years ago, there was a thief at home. I heard that a lot of gold was lost. Grandpa felt very distressed. From then on, he kept closing the door to thank guests, but..."
Mu Yun had already expected it, so he took over the conversation and said, "But there is a man who calls himself 'Ju Xia' coming to the house as a guest?"
Liang Yujie let out a light sigh, nodded her head and said, "Yes, that giant hero's surname is Huangfu, how could Shaoxia Mu know?"
Mu Yun smiled and said, "I have dealt with this great Huangfu hero, and I heard from him that he visited his residence, but I don't know the specific circumstances."
Liang Yujie said softly: "That's right, that Huangfu giant was sent by the master of Wohu Gang Wen Village, claiming to help grandpa recover the lost gold."
"Grandpa was very attentive to him. He cooked a table of delicious dishes himself and invited me and my eldest sister to accompany him. As a result, he stayed at the house for three days and said that he had found clues. Grandpa was very happy and the food was delicious.
I entertained him a meal, gave him a lot of money, and then sent him away."
Mu Yun nodded secretly and continued to inquire: "After Huangfu Juxia left, did anything unusual happen to the eldest lady?"
Liang Yujie was even more surprised. She stared at Mu Yun and said, "Do you know this? After Huangfu Juxia left, the eldest sister seemed to be even more preoccupied. She was in a daze for several days."
Mu Yun knew something in his heart, shook his head and sighed softly: "It's a blessing, not a curse. It's a curse that can't be avoided. I hope that after this meeting, the eldest lady can look away."
Liang Yujie was still in the mist. She was stunned for a moment before she said angrily: "Young Master Mu is lying to me again and lied to me a lot, but you didn't say anything yourself."
Mu Yun laughed and said: "There are some things that Third Miss doesn't know, but it will be good for you. This is a secret that must not be leaked."
Liang Yujie looked helpless and could only pouted her mouth and snorted, turned her head and ignored Mu Yun.
After about a meal, Liang Yujie had had enough rest, and the two of them continued their journey to Jie Niuxuan.
Liang Yujie was tricked by Mu Yun. Still holding her breath, she gritted her teeth and ran quickly, determined not to be looked down upon by this cunning man.
Mu Yun was naturally happy to see the success, so he used only a small amount of his strength to accompany Liang Yujie unhurriedly.
The two of them kept pace and soon left the ten-mile journey behind them. Jie Niuxuan was already in sight in the distance.
The word "Jie Niu" comes from "Zhuangzi: Master of Health Preservation". As the saying goes, "The cook can Jie Niu with ease." This place is perfect for the chef and his family to stay.
Liang Yujie flew into the gate of Jie Niuxuan, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and shouted loudly while panting: "Grandpa, eldest sister, second sister, I'm back."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the east wing opened with a creak, and a young girl came out. She was wearing a sable fur, a silk skirt, a jade ring around her waist, and sea bream scale boots. She had a fair, oval face that revealed
Extraordinarily dignified, the clouds and mist on the temples are dazzling with pearls, showing a full sense of luxury.
Mu Yun glanced at him and realized that the person coming was none other than his old friend Liang Yubing.
Seeing Mu Yun's unexpected arrival, Liang Yubing showed surprise and joy, and walked forward with gentle steps. While holding Liang Yujie's hand, she bowed to Mu Yun and said: "Let's meet in Pingliang City."
