Ink Garden, study room.

Xiao Jinxi was lowering her head to help Mo Yi clean up the wound on his wrist.

Mo Yi on the side watched quietly, with a smile on his face, but self-blame appeared in his eyes from time to time... Xi'er, what did I do in the last life?Why did Mu Chen copy the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion with decree?
At this moment, Xiao Jinxi had finished cleaning up the blood scab on his wrist, felt the man's silence, looked up, and Mo Yi was staring at him in a daze.

Frowning, he asked, "Mo Yi, what's wrong? Does it hurt?"

Mo Yi just came back to his senses, and responded with a smile: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all, Xi'er changed my medicine, I'm happy!"

Xiao Jinxi smiled instantly: "Well, I will give you the medicine now."

Mo Yi nodded in response: "Yes, good."

Xiao Jinxi, who was lowering his head and putting on the medicine, asked again: "Mo Yi, does it hurt?"

Mo Yi shook his head: "It doesn't hurt, Xi'er, you have to give me medicine every day, otherwise the wound won't heal!"

Xiao Jinxi nodded with a smile and said, "Understood, Mr. Yi. Even if I forgot, wouldn't Luo Er help you and remind me?"

"The drugged gun you gave me last time was a good buy for Luo Er. Luo Er said that as long as Brother Yi asks her to help, she will definitely help. Do I still dare to be lazy?"

Mo Yi smiled, nodded and said: "Well, that's a good idea. From now on, I'll find more good things for Luo Er."

Xiao Jinxi looked up at Mo Yi, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said, "Mo Yi, you are the one who said you wanted to bribe me in front of me!"

"Why don't I spend some time to buy Qingfeng Qingyu Qingluan. By the way, there is also Yunshang, what do you think?"

Mo Yi smiled, looked at the woman, and said, "Xi'er, you don't need to try to bribe them, everything that belongs to Yi belongs to Xi'er."

"Let's not talk about them, the entire Mo Garden belongs to Xi'er. By the way, there is also the Four Seas Bank, which also belongs to Xi'er. Not only that, Yi also has a lot of properties in his hands, all of which belong to Xi'er."

"When will you be free, I'll take you there again. Xi'er, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxi choked for a moment, then responded with a smile: "Okay, I just found out today that I'm so rich! From now on, Luoer won't have to keep shouting, save some money and give it to Fuyou Church children."

Mo Yi nodded and said: "Well, tell her, Xi'er, there's no need to save, her lady has plenty of money."

Xiao Jinxi smiled instantly, and nodded in response: "Well, this is a good idea. Luoer must be very happy to know."

After a while, the medicine is ready and bandaged.

Xiao Jinxi warned: "Mo Yi, these days, be careful, don't dip your wound in water."

"Okay, I got it." Mo Yi responded.

Then he took the pastry from the side and said, "Come, Xi'er, have a piece of pastry."

Xiao Jinxi looked at it and said, "Mo Yi, I just had enough."

Mo Yi shook his head and said, "That's not enough, Xi'er hasn't eaten well for the past two days, so I need to eat more."

Xiao Jinxi took the pastry and replied helplessly: "Yes, I see."

Seeing the woman eating, Mo Yi smiled and hugged the woman into his arms from one side.

Xiao Jinxi was startled, and said helplessly, "Mo Yi, I'm eating."

With a smirk on his face, Mo Yi said, "Xi'er, you can eat like this."

Seeing the man's tightly encircled arms, Xiao Jinxi smiled helplessly, and finally gave up arguing, obediently lying in the man's arms eating snacks.

After a while, Mo Yi asked again: "Xi'er, do you want to know about Mu Chen?"

Xiao Jinxi was taken aback for a moment... It seems that his own reaction that day really scared Mo Yi.

After a while, he replied: "Okay, tell me, I'm listening."

"En." Mo Yi circled the woman tightly again, and said slowly: "Mu Chen actually came from an official family, and his ancestors have always been officials."

"And the one with the best ability is his grandfather, who rose all the way to the prefect of a state. His grandfather was very accomplished when he was young. But his father is not capable of taking on the responsibility."

"His father was in a good family since he was a child, and he was well-clothed and well-fed since he was a child. His grandfather was busy with official duties at that time, so he seldom disciplined his son."

"He was brought up by his grandmother. Since he was a child, his grandmother has doted on this son in every possible way. As a result, when he grows up, he is proficient in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling."

"By the time his grandfather found out later, it was too late, and his xinxing had already taken shape."

"Going to the back, looking at such a son, his grandfather was thinking, hoping to find a woman from a scholarly family for this son, maybe he hoped that after he got married, he would become a little more responsible, and hope that he would be on the right track. "

"However, Muchen's father was already notorious in the local area at that time. The daughter of a good family would not be willing to marry such a person."

"At that time, until I was thirty, I couldn't find a daughter from a good family who was willing to marry this son."

At this moment, after watching the woman finished eating the snacks, Mo Yi handed over the teacup and said, "Xi'er, come and drink tea."

"En." Xiao Jinxi smiled, took the teacup, and drank slowly.

Mo Yi smiled, and asked again: "Xi'er, is it cold?"

Xiao Jinxi shook her head and said, "You're holding me, it's not cold."

Mo Yi smiled, circled the woman tightly again, and continued: "And Mu Chen's mother, who came from a scholarly family, was famous far and wide since she was a child, but her family has fallen behind."

"That year, her grandmother was seriously ill and had no money for medical treatment, so she almost died."

"At that time, Mu Chen's grandfather learned about all this by accident, so he funded his grandmother's medical treatment. But he said that he hoped that the two families could become in-laws."

"In the end, the two of them got married. But in the end, his grandfather couldn't do what he wanted, and failed to guide this son into the right path."

"The two got married for less than a year. At that time, his mother was just a few months pregnant when it was reported that his father went to whoring again. When his grandfather found out, he was so angry that he beat the son and even cut off his daily routine. a month's worth of silver."

"His grandfather thought that if he had no money on him, he should take care of himself and stop going out to whores. That's how it was, two or three years passed relatively quietly."

As he said that, Mo Yi handed over another piece of pastry and said, "Xi'er, eat another piece."

"Yeah." Xiao Jinxi smiled, took the pastry, and continued eating.

Mo Yi continued: "But who knows, one day, several gambling houses and brothels came to ask for debts. The thick stack of IOUs made his grandfather faint."

"On that day, his grandfather had to pay off his debts, but he also fell ill afterwards, but he still had to continue to deal with the official affairs of the state with his illness."

"At that time, his grandfather also issued an announcement that anyone who dares to lend money to his son to go whoring and gambling, he will not recognize these debts, and he will not help to pay them back. At that time, he will just leave this son directly. Father-son relationship."

"It was also because of this announcement that there were no more door-to-door debt requests."

"But his father still doesn't stay at home every day, and hangs out every day. At that time, his grandfather had no hope for this son. So he only gave this son the most basic expenses every month, and the others were no longer Let's take care of it."

"All this was told to him later by Mu Chen's grandfather. Maybe it's hope that Mu Chen can learn from this and don't want to learn from his father."

Seeing that the woman had finished eating the pastry, Mo Yi handed over the teacup and said, "Xi'er, drink tea."

"En." Xiao Jinxi smiled, took the teacup, and drank slowly.

Mo Yi continued: "Since Mu Chen was three years old, his grandfather took Mu Chen with him and taught him himself. He even pinned his hopes on this grandson."
