Zhang's mother was stunned by her yelling. She didn't seem to say anything. Why was she jumping up and down?
Zhang’s mother: “Hua Ling, what’s wrong with you?”
Hua Lingqi glared at her, and Zhang's mother suddenly felt confused.
But we only met once, as for maintaining it like this?
"Oh, okay, okay, it's mom, I said the wrong thing, I'm stupid, that young man is smart, okay?"
Hua Ling snorted and turned her head away, ignoring her.
Zhang’s mother: “…”
Yueru: "Hey, but what is that man's name?"
Hua Ling replied: "Sima Kongkong! My husband!"
Mother Zhang choked on her water, coughed, and looked at her in disbelief.
What did Hua Ling say just now?
Husband?
This is too coincidental, huh, but why is the name Sima Kongkong so familiar?
Ziyi: "Sima Kongkong, isn't he the disciple of that city lord?"
At first, Ziyi felt that this name was familiar. After thinking about it carefully, the city lord's apprentice seemed to be called by this name.
"What? The city lord's apprentice?" Zhang's mother was surprised, "Are you serious?"
Ziyi shook his head and said, "Who knows if it's the same name."
But think about it, it's possible. If he was the city lord's apprentice, how could those officers and soldiers not recognize him?
So, maybe it’s really the same name, Zhang’s mother comforted herself.
Yueru asked doubtfully: "Isn't it said that General Sima has not been in the city recently? It should be, not him, right?"
Zhang’s mother clapped her hands and said, “Hey! That’s right! If you don’t tell me, I wouldn’t even think of it. Then it’s not him. What I said is that, if this is really General Sima, how could he have no money and still be raped by the officers and soldiers?
Caught him."
Ziyi said quietly from the side: "Maybe he came back early."
Zhang’s mother: “…”
Ziyi just likes to see Zhang's mother frustrated, and she is best at deliberately embarrassing her.
Just as Mu Zichen was about to go out to fulfill his previous promise to Hua Ling to redeem her life, an uninvited guest appeared beside him.
"Where are you going?"
"...Master."
On the second day, Hua Ling finally saw the good husband she had longed for.
"Empty!"
Mu Zichen staggered when he was shouted at. This girl is really...the two of them shouldn't be that familiar yet, right?
"Kongkong! Are you here to redeem me?"
"Ah," Mu Zichen nodded, "Um, yes, yes..."
"I knew you would come." Hua Ling's eyes narrowed into slits with a smile.
Mu Zichen was surprised by her inexplicable trust in him, but he didn't know what to say.
Zhang's mother was slightly startled when she saw him. She secretly thought that this young master must not be an ordinary person. Even if he is not the rumored General Sima, he is still from a rich and powerful family. Otherwise, how could he get out of the government so quickly?
Yes, I should have known she was giving money to the officers and soldiers.
"Mother Zhang, you're fine." Mu Zichen spread his fan and smiled.
"Hey, I thought who was coming here. It turned out to be Mr. Sima. Hahaha, come on, come on, come and sit down. Someone, come and bring the best tea here to Mr. Sima!"
Mu Zichen raised his eyebrows slightly. This mother deserves to be able to make Wanhua Building look like this. She can see people talking and ghosts telling lies. One moment, she can have officers and soldiers arrest you, and the next second she can still greet you with a smile and pretend to be.
Mother Zhang smiled: "Sir, tell me, this flower spirit, I just brought it here recently. Her body and everything are pure and clean. She didn't even let her welcome the guests all day long. She,
If she is here, she will definitely have a future, and I will train her as the next number one in our Wanhua downstairs. The young master wants to redeem our flower spirit with just a few words. Isn't that good?"
Mu Zichen opened his eyes slightly and looked at her in disbelief.
What did he just hear?
Is there a future? Is Wanhualou?
No, how could this person say these words without blushing or heart beating?
Or the next number one? Who cares? What kind of number one does this serious girl care about?
Mu Zichen closed the fan, leaned back on the chair, and sneered: "Ask her, is she willing to come with me, or be you, the number one in Huanhualou?"
"Of course I'm going with you!" Hua Ling jumped up and replied.
Mu Zichen praised with satisfaction: "Well, you're so good."
Hua Ling chuckled and wagged her tail.
Zhang’s mother: “Here, the contract of sale is in my hand.”
"Didn't you say that you wanted to give her the money to redeem her life? I will give it to you, sir."
As he spoke, Mu Zichen threw a bag of money and a pile of silver notes on the table.
Mother Zhang's eyes lit up in an instant when she looked at the handfuls of money and the stack of silver notes protruding from the money bag.
But how could a thousand-year-old fox be impressed so easily?
"This... Young Master, please don't embarrass me and my mother. I really can't let go of Hua Ling. She is not only worth this price."
Muzi frowned. For some reason, he felt uncomfortable with this kind of price negotiation.
"What I gave you is three times the price of the ransom for the number one."
"Here, young master, you see, this flower spirit attracted the attention of countless men when it first appeared, and the price will naturally follow..."
Mu Zichen slapped the table: "I think you are looking for death!"
"Hey, what did the young master say?"
"In a word, I have to take this person away today, whether you give it to him or not."
When Mother Zhang saw that she didn't get the extra gas money, the conversation broke down. Just when she was about to speak, the young man had already turned over the table, and Mother Zhang's eyes suddenly froze.
"It seems that the young master wants to come to our Wanhua Building to cause trouble today, so I won't be rude to you, mother."
As soon as he finished speaking, several thugs came in immediately, and the door was already closed.
Mu Zichen stood up slowly, not forgetting to show off his fan at this time.
"Okay, then let me come and learn from you."
Suddenly, thugs swarmed forward, and Mu Zichen was alone, but he did not have the upper hand.
Hua Ling was watching from the side, wondering what happened, why did they start fighting?
Huh? However, the prince’s kung fu in this life is still very good!
Suddenly, the door was opened by someone unknown, it was someone from outside.
At the same time that the door was split open, all the thugs had been knocked down by Mu Zichen.
"Master."
Hua Ling looked at the people who came in and was stunned for a while.
"Tanyou?!"
Mu Zichen was confused: "Hua Ling, do you know my master?"
Hua Ling was surprised: "Master?"
Tanyou: "I really didn't expect that I could meet my old friend here. Zichen, it turns out that the girl you want to redeem is her."
Tanyou had a smile on her face. In other words, she never expected to meet Hua Ling in such a place.
"Hmm? Zichen?"
Mu Zichen made a shushing gesture.
"Keep your voice down, I'll explain it to you later."
Mother Zhang on the side stared blankly at this unexpected event.
Wait, what did that woman call him just now?
Zhang's mother raised her head in astonishment and looked at this handsome young man with surprise and uncertainty.
There is only one person named Zichen in Xun'an City, and this person is named Mu.
"...Mu, Zichen?"
Tanyou groaned: "I'm sorry, I forgot that you are so famous, but you actually said it directly."
Mu Zichen smiled. This apology was so insincere.
"The little people don't know that Mr. Mu is the master. I bumped into him and hope that he will forgive me."
"Hey, don't kneel down, I didn't say anything."
Zhang's mother was still kneeling on the ground, and Mu Zichen sighed.
"Don't worry, I won't blame you. Get up."
"Thank you, Mr. Haihan."
Mu Zichen had no official authority in Xun'an City, but he was a special being in everyone's hearts.
When he was born, the war in Bei'an had subsided, and the number of refugees in Xun'an City had been reduced by more than half. The farmers' harvest that year was actually exceptionally good. What's more, the people's taxes were also reduced by half. For a time, the entire Xun'an City was no longer in ruins due to the war.
The difficult situation of refugees living everywhere suddenly changed.
It was already a strange rumor that he was born with a foreign object in his mouth. Later, some Taoist priests said that it was a lucky star that came into the world, a symbol of Xun'an's auspiciousness and prosperity.
All of a sudden, this child who didn't understand anything was inexplicably recorded in people's merit books.
In addition, Nai Muyan was a well-known miracle doctor and good man in Xun'an City. He was loved by the people of Xun'an and had a distinguished status.
It is said that the city lord and Mu Yanming had a close brotherly relationship, and later they adopted Mu Zichen as their adopted son.
He is the young master of the Mu family and the son of Mu Yanming, which is already a special existence. Later, he became a son of the city, and his status was completely different. The most important thing is that he is also the symbol of good fortune and auspiciousness in Xun'an City.
, the people of Xun'an City do not miss him.
So even though it was Zhang's mother, she didn't dare to be disrespectful to him. Besides, she was also someone who came here during the war.
Mu Zichen was quite helpless regarding their various perceptions. He could rely on his status as Mu Yanming's son to have others treat him with courtesy and respect, or he could rely on his status as the adopted son of Suicheng to walk sideways and say
Really, when doing these two things, he didn't feel any burden at all when Mu Zichen did it. Not only did he not do it, it was also very natural.
Later, I learned that others had this inexplicable relationship with him, and I couldn't be happy for a while, and I don't know why.
He could rely on his father to play tricks, but he couldn't use this empty talk about lucky stars, and he always felt uncomfortable.
He was still a little baby back then, just born and didn't understand anything.
As a result, he was given such a good name. To be honest, even now, he is a little bit overwhelmed.
"Okay, you go down. By the way, I must redeem this girl."
"Hey, yes, yes, everything is according to Mr. Mu, ah, just take it away without any money. I will send Hua Ling's deed of sale to you later."
Mu Zichen waved his hand, and Zhang's mother retreated.
