Chapter 36
Xiao Shi has been listening silently by the side, with a miserable and helpless expression.

No matter how you say it, the Zhou family is her relative, but they treat her like this again and again, and they never treat her as a relative. How can she not be bitter?Now it is reasonable for her daughter and her husband to fight back, but morally speaking, she can't be cruel.

There was just one thing she didn't understand: "Gu... why did the Zhou family go to great lengths to deal with us?"

"There are three reasons." Mu Zhizhao sneered: "First, what happened at the flower fair last time made the Zhou family lose face. When they were brought up for inspection by the inspector, the Zhou family was put on the books. It is estimated that the decree of relegation will not be long. After coming down, the Zhou family was naturally depressed; secondly, Zhou Yixuan was married to the Xu family, and was implicated in the Xu family's rebellion, and was sentenced to death. In addition, the reputation of Zhou Yimeng, which they placed high hopes on, is ruined, and the Zhou family's hope is gone, so it is natural to avenge the loss of the second daughter; thirdly, the plot is of course my Mu family's wealth!"

Seeing Xiao's hesitation, how could Mu Yunge not understand her embarrassment?
She stepped forward to take Xiao Shi by her arms, and asked softly: "Mother, Yun Ge knows that you can't bear it, but think about it, my aunt is paralyzed in bed and wants to plot against our Mu family, how can I treat you as a relative? We don't Fighting back will only make them hurt us again and again. If one day, father is gone, daughter and Jinran are gone..."

"No!" Shaking her head again and again, Xiao Shi covered her mouth: "Don't say such unlucky things!"

She was really afraid that what Mu Yunge said would become a reality!

Mu Yunge knew that Xiao Shi had already been persuaded by her, as long as she and Jinran were involved, Xiao Shi would be cold-hearted about everything.

"Mother, for the next thing, both daughter and father need you!" Mu Yunge hugged her, thinking of all the past life, attachment spontaneously: "Father and daughter do these things to protect mother and Jinran, without you, Yun Ge's whole life is meaningless!"

Crying like rain, Xiao nodded slowly: "Silly boy, mother will do her best to protect you!"

After everything was settled, the three of the Mu family returned to Aunt Luo's yard and started the first step of the plan.

"You are all servants of my Mu family, and the contract of prostitution is also in the Mu family, helping outsiders deal with the Mu family. If the Mu family is in trouble, you will not get any benefits." Mu Zhizhao swept over the servants who were kneeling on the ground, With a straight face, he said slowly: "Other people really won the Mu family, you know the root cause, the first one will be eradicated, think about it for yourself."

Mu Zhizhao is in charge of thousands of shops in the south, once the accumulated coercion breaks out, it is indeed extraordinary.

The kneeling servants were intimidated by his aura and dared not make a sound.

In fact, they were also wronged. They thought it was just Aunt Luo fighting for the position of the head of the house, but who would have thought that it would lead to a grudge?You can't get out of it, as long as there is a glimmer of life, Mu Zhizhao will let them kill people, and most of them will be willing.

Hearing Mu Zhizhao's tone loosened a bit, they immediately knelt and kowtowed to beg for mercy: "Master, this slave and servant know it's wrong! I beg you to forgive me!"

Mu Zhizhao nodded in satisfaction, and said, "I don't blame you all for what happened today, but I will give you a chance to redeem yourself. After leaving this courtyard, if anyone asks you in the future, you can just say that..."

The girls and women looked at each other and nodded.

Let the maids go out, Mu Zhizhao called Dr. Wang who was being escorted by Imperial Physician Mei, and said with a gentle smile: "Dr. Wang said just now that the family has no money to do this wicked business?"

Doctor Wang was frightened and pitiful, and kept nodding.

"How much silver did the Zhou family give you?" Mu Zhizhao looked at him with a smile: "No matter how much silver the Zhou family gave you, I will give you double. As long as you go back, leave Jinling immediately as if nothing happened today!"

How could Dr. Wang think that there would be such benefits, and looked pitifully at Dr. Mei.

Just now, Mu Yunge told the imperial physician about his plan, he couldn't understand the Zhou family, and he liked Mu Yunge, a girl, so he immediately snorted coldly: "Take the money and settle down, practice medicine well, don't do such immoral things again! There is no impenetrable wall, if you persist in your obsession, one day you will find yourself dead!"

Dr. Wang was overjoyed, thanked Imperial Physician Mei, and Mu Zhizhao, took the money and walked out of Mu's house.

"Cui Luo." Mu Yunge said, "Do you know what to do?"

When Cui Luo heard Mu Zhizhao's treatment of everyone, she didn't realize that she had a chance of life, and immediately said cleverly: "Your servant understands. When people from the Zhou family come to ask, the servant will say that everything is normal here, and the Zhou family will pass on the words." , convey it to the master and the lady verbatim!"

Mu Yunge nodded slowly: "You are smart."

Cui Luo was overjoyed and thanked her.

Mu Yunge looked at Yunluo, saw her despairing gaze, and smiled slightly: "It's not impossible for me to save your sister if you want me to."

Yun Luo's eyes lit up, and Mu Yunge said again: "Cui Luo cannot be trusted by the Zhou family, but you are Aunt Luo's confidant, and your status is different. I want you to do more and better than Cui Luo!"

Yunluo fell deeply on the ground, choked with sobs and said, "Yunluo's ten thousand deaths are not enough to repay Miss' kindness!"

After doing this, Mu Yunge left the yard without looking back.She doesn't care at all how Aunt Luo will deal with the rest, and she believes that Mu Zhizhao will deal with it rationally.

only……

Mu Yunge lowered his eyes. During this period of time, just in case, it is necessary to let Jinran leave the place of right and wrong.

Tang Linyi was teaching Mu Jinran how to walk, when he saw Mu Yunge approaching, he stopped.Mu Yunge greeted Mu Jinran to sit down and have some snacks, and personally picked two pieces of mung bean paste and handed them to Tang Linyi.Tang Linyi thanked him, but he was not in a hurry to eat. He just smiled gently and said, "Yun Ge has something on his mind?"

Mu Yunge knew he couldn't hide it from him, so he smiled wryly and said, "You can't hide anything from Master."

"Family matter?" Tang Linyi guessed.

Mu Yunge shook his head, and dragged him aside.

She didn't know how to tell this banished fairy-like master about these dirty things, she kept drawing circles on the ground, lowered her head and murmured: "Master, someone is going to harm the Mu family, my parents and Jin Ran... ,I'm scared."

With hands on her shoulders, Mu Yunge raised his head, Tang Linyi said calmly, "Don't be afraid, there is a master!"

"But didn't Master say..." Mu Yunge frowned.

She remembered that when Tang Linyi came to Mu's house, he said that he would not care about anything in Mu's house!

Tang Linyi interrupted her with a chuckle: "As long as it's about Yunge, even Master Daoshan Huohai will go. You are my apprentice, and Jinran is also my apprentice, let alone..." He paused, and then said: "I don't If you come to Mu's house thousands of miles away, if you can't even protect you, wouldn't you be sorry for my hard work?"

For some reason, Mu Yunge intuitively felt that behind his sentence "not to mention", this sentence was not meant to be said at all.

But she didn't think much about it. Tang Linyi's words seemed to give her a reassurance, and her restless heart was at peace.

After a lifetime, she was no longer the Mu Yunge who was easily moved, but at this moment, she felt so warm, and the hands on her shoulders had magical power, filling her with courage.

"Master, can you take Jinran away from Jinling for a while?" Mu Yunge asked.

Tang Linyi suppressed his smile: "No, I'm leaving, who will protect you?"

"Master, trust me!" Mu Yunge said firmly: "I have been practicing lightness kung fu for a while, and I have no problem protecting myself. I am just worried about Jinran. He is too young and too fragile. Only by entrusting him to Master can I feel at ease." !"

Tang Linyi looked at her silently, and did not refuse this time.

After a long time, he slowly took out something from his sleeve and put it in Mu Yunge's hand.He held Mu Yunge's finger and asked her to hold it tightly before saying, "If you need anything, take this thing and poke a mark in a conspicuous place, and someone will come to help you. Remember, use black ink. Yes, don't take risks, your life is more important than you think!"

Mu Yunge grabbed the thing and nodded slowly.

With the important matter on her mind finalized, Mu Yunge returned to the table, touched Mu Jinran's head, and told him to listen to Tang Linyi's words, and she left Tang Linyi's yard.

Tang Linyi watched her off, his eyes were dim and the smile on his mouth was unpredictable.

When Mu Yunge returned to the room, he let go of what he was holding tightly in his hand.

It was a wooden handicraft, only the size of a walnut, and the upper part was a man's head.The head was carved lifelike, and a man with picturesque eyebrows showed his face and smiled, with an indescribable freedom in his calmness.There is a notch at the bottom, somewhat like a seal.She took out rice paper and printed it, and the printed figure was somewhat similar to rose flowers.

Black roses?

Mu Yunge stared, what does this mean?
She wanted to ask, but thinking of Tang Linyi's solemn appearance, she felt that she shouldn't ask.Carefully put away this thing, Mu Yunge returned to the desk, calmed down, wrote a letter with a pen, and asked Pei Xin to send it to Yunya Restaurant.

After writing the letter, Mu Yunge suddenly remembered something, turned to Peiying and asked, "Why haven't I seen Aunt Xiao, mother and daughter all day today?"

"Miss, Aunt Xiao and Miss Shen went out early in the morning." Peiying replied.

Mu Yunge frowned slightly: "Why, do they go out often recently?"

"Anyway, I haven't been in the mansion very often recently." Peiying curled her lips: "I heard that Aunt Xiao has made some friends, and these days they are hanging out with some noble ladies in Jinling."

Mu Yunge chuckled, just like in her previous life, Aunt Xiao still couldn't bear the loneliness, completely disregarding the rules of keeping filial piety, and started going out to play and attend banquets within a month, busy seeking a foothold in the Jinling aristocratic circle.

Pei Lian came back from the outside, and when she heard these words, she interjected with a smile: "Miss, Pei Ying was wrong this time. The maidservant just heard from Pei Rong that Aunt Xiao and Miss Shen are not allowed to go out today. It's not for fun, but I ordered some clothes at Jinxiufang a few days ago, and I went a long way to pick them up today. I just came back, and I'm tossing around in the small kitchen over there, I don't know what I'm doing .”

"Oh?" Mu Yunge raised his eyebrows: "Aunt Xiao cooks herself?"

"Isn't it?" Pei Lian sniffled: "The servants passed by over there, and they could smell the fragrance after a long distance. It smells so sweet."

Mu Yunge put down his pen, wiped his hands with a hot towel, and said with a strange smile: "Tonight, the Mu family will be lively again."
