Chapter 247
Several people cleaned up the house, and it was already afternoon.

Huang looked at the sky and felt that it was time to start preparing dinner, so she ordered everyone to work together to cook a sumptuous housewarming meal.

Axiu was the first to cheer, very positively.

Mu Yun nodded to Axiu's head, and threw her a handful of leeks for her to clean up.

Axiu didn't find it troublesome, she would give almost anything for food.

Several people sat around the center of the yard, chatting and choosing vegetables.

"Let me tell you, the waters of these big families are deep." In the past few days when Mu Yun and the others left, Axiu has been following Jiangnan, and she has seen a lot of filth that she has never seen before. Quite a lot, and I think Mu Yun and the others should also listen to them, with a long-term mind, "Don't think that the relationship between the Lu family and the Bai family is good now, in fact, they were deadly enemies more than ten years ago. The Lu family and the Jiang family The alliance of the Bai family broke down...the rumor is also because of the Bai family."

Mrs. Huang let out a "huh" and said:
"The Bai family is really a troublemaker."

Mu Yun listened seriously, she still needs to know more about the quarrels among these big families in the capital, after all, the Lin family will live under their noses in the future.

After Lin Jinyan came back at night, Mu Yun told Lin Jinyan the news she heard from Ashina during the day.

Lin Jinyan groaned, and nodded lightly, expressing his understanding.

Seeing that he was calm, Mu Yun asked him:

"How are you getting along with your subordinates and colleagues today?"

Lin Jinyan originally thought that military officials were much better than civil officials, at least there would not be too many intrigues.He thought that he should be able to deal with it easily with what he had learned from Mu Yun.It's just that he didn't expect that he would face difficulties when he reported for duty on the first day.

According to Jiangnan, this is just a warning.

But he had some doubts about the officialdom because of this.

He didn't want to worry Mu Yun, so he didn't ask these questions, and only said that he got along well with his colleagues.

Mu Yun still knew little about officialdom, and felt that she could not help Lin Jinyan, so she patted him on the shoulder lightly, expressing that she would always support him.Lin Jinyan felt that everything else was easy to handle, but for some reason, the son of the Lu family who had been investigated before was of a higher rank than him, and he always seemed to be making trouble for him.

Lin Jinyan's hands were itchy with that flamboyant look.

Lin Jinyan looked at him, and always felt that he seemed to have a conspiracy.

However, he really looked down on this kind of person who was able to occupy a seat in the court because of his family background, and he usually didn't negotiate too much with him.

After a few days like this, the army stationed in the frontier had already arrived in the capital, but the crowd did not find General Lu.The accompanying lieutenant said that the general separated from them because of other matters on the way. He originally thought that the general had already arrived in the capital, but now it seems that he has not arrived in the capital.

Such a reply almost drove the Lu family crazy.

The grandmother of the Lu family was so anxious that she almost passed out.

What did General Lu do?
Why didn't he come back with the army?
No matter how the imperial court and the big families reacted, Mu Yun felt that her Lin family had a very comfortable life.

She has already planned to use the remaining money to open another shop, this time she will not focus on opening more, but only specialize in one.

Yulan and Yuyao once asked her:
"Brother Lin has become the champion of martial arts, and has a half-time official position. Mu Yun, you only need to be an official wife at home. Why do you have to open a shop?"

Mu Yun smiled and said:
"It's because he became an official, and all the management of the court needs money. Is this money enough with his little salary?"

What Mu Yun said was somewhat secretive, but Yulan and Yuyao understood.

If a military officer like Lin Jinyan didn't fight, he probably wouldn't have much income.After all, the biggest gain for generals is the emperor's reward after each battle.

The Lu family is a typical example. The reason why their family can stand at the top of the capital is because of the emperor's favor.

And if they go to war, then Mu Yun and the others will definitely be worried, so their first choice is not to make contributions, but to ensure Lin Jinyan's safety.If Lin Jinyan didn't go to fight, he would naturally have to deal with the officials in the court, and this deal would definitely cost a lot of money.Lin Jinyan is a military officer, and she doesn't focus on making money. Although she doesn't have much money, the money can only be paid from her shop.

Mu Yun thinks very clearly, so her shop must be opened!

In the past few days, Lin Jinyan and Huang's supervision of her has decreased a lot, probably because she is in better health than before, so they don't have to follow her when they go out every day, as long as they bring Magnolia, Yuyao and That's fine.

In the past few days, because General Lu has not returned to Lu's house, there have been more hooligans and beggars in the capital.

When Mu Yun went out, she was not as casual as before, she was forced to put on a veiled hat to go out after being repeatedly instructed by Huang.

Buying a shop in the capital is not much cheaper than housing.If you want to choose a good location, it will be several times the price.

Mu Yun looked around, but couldn't find what she wanted.

She was sitting sadly in the teahouse, looking at the passers-by, thinking that if it didn't work, she would start by setting up a stall.She was so lost in thought that she didn't notice what was behind her.

The visitor gave Yuyao and Yulan a look, and they kept Chen Mo.

Mu Yun was patted on the shoulder unexpectedly, she was startled, and looked sideways, but it was Xu Jiaying.

Xu Jiaying looked at Mu Yun with a smile, and when she saw her looking over, she sat opposite her, pointed at Yulan Yu and said to the two of them:

"I saw these two pretty girls from a distance, and thought that the two of them could follow, either you or Mrs. Huang, and I guessed it right. But why did you go out with a veiled hat?"

When Mu Yun was about to go out, Mrs. Huang said what she had said to her, and that demeanor taught Mrs. Huang to be vivid.

Xu Jiaying saw Mu Yun raised her veil and wanted to tease her a few more words, but she didn't expect that when she opened her mouth, there was a lot of complaints.After listening for a long time, she realized that Mu Yun was learning from the Huang family.

She couldn't help laughing, looked at Mu Yun and sighed:
"In this way, I am so close to you, but I have never met the Lin family's mother-in-law. Why don't I choose a day or hit the sun, and today I will go to your house to see her?"

Mu Yun's eyes lit up, Xu Jiaying's temperament was somewhat similar to Jiangnan's. If Jiangnan had more years of experience in the officialdom, she would probably be more similar to Xu Jiaying's temperament in the future.And Huang's likes Jiangnan, so he probably won't hate Xu Jiaying either.

She nodded slightly, and the two walked towards the Lin family.

They chatted and laughed all the way, but Mu Yun forgot to cover the curtain of the veiled hat.

When they were about to reach Lin's house, they were suddenly surrounded by a group of people, the leader of whom was the same person Mu Yun was molested at the teahouse that day.

When Xu Jiaying saw these people approaching menacingly, she knew that the situation was not good. She stopped Mu Yun behind her, looked at them and said:

"Who are you? Why are you blocking our way?"

Hearing her words, the leader took a step forward and said with a smile:

"Miss Xu, what are you talking about? I didn't block your way, I just wanted to block her way."

Following his words, Mu Yun saw the man raise his hand, pointing directly at her nose.

"Who are you, and why are you making things difficult for my wife?" Yulan stood up first and asked sharply.

Yuyao also took a step forward, standing behind Xu Jiaying with Yulan, surrounding Mu Yun, forming a defensive posture.

"A dog deserves to talk to me?" The man snorted coldly.

"you!"

Yulan was so angry that she jumped, but it was Mu Yun who stopped her.

"Yulan is my good sister, not a slave."

Mu Yun didn't lie.

A slave in this time and space refers to a person who is held by someone who sells a contract, and Yulan does not have a contract at all. She is free to work in the Lin family to make money.As for Yuyao, since she has become an official slave, she cannot easily get rid of this status.

"You don't treat people like dogs, but people still think they are dogs." The man didn't even look at Yulan, but only stared at Mu Yun.

Xu Jiaying frowned even tighter, she looked at the man and said:

"Your surname is Lu, don't look for trouble. This lady is my friend. If you want to stop her, you have to see if our Xu family agrees."

When Mu Yun heard Xu Jiaying call that person's surname Lu, she suddenly had some bad guesses.For a moment, she suspected that she had heard wrong.

Men are light.Stretching out his hands, he said:

"What is Miss Xu talking about? I just want to invite this girl to my house. Why did you say that, as if I want her life?"

"Hehe, ordinary people can't afford to drink tea from your Lu family. She is just an ordinary person, how dare she go to your house to bother her?"

Mu Yun is sure that she heard correctly this time, this person is actually from the Lu family, so according to his age, he is probably the mastermind behind the big Zhuye case - the son of the Lu family.

After Xu Jiaying finished speaking, she took Mu Yun's hand, trying to break through, but couldn't make up her mind.

She glared angrily and said, "Lu, don't be complacent. Your father is on his way back. If you do such a thing, aren't you afraid that he will break your leg when he comes back?"

The man put away his frivolous attitude and said in a cold voice:
"Miss Xu, I'm still willing to talk nonsense with you here because I think highly of your Xu family. If you insist on stopping me, don't blame me for turning my back on you."

"I'm thinking about your life, don't treat kindness like a donkey's liver and lungs."

The man didn't want to talk nonsense with Xu Jiaying anymore, he motioned for the guards around him to stop Xu Jiaying and Yulan, and then pushed Mu Yun to his side.

He ignored Xu Jiaying's cursing at all, stretched out his hand, raised Mu Yun's chin, and asked:
"Your husband is the champion of martial arts?"

Mu Yun said softly:
"Yes."

Mu Yun's somewhat humiliated face seemed to arouse his great interest.

"Girl, don't be so resistant, I just want to make friends with you."

As he spoke, his hand slowly slid down Mu Yun's chin.

Mu Yun only felt goosebumps all over her body with the movement of his hand.She wanted to step back, but she was restrained by several guards, unable to take a step back, and could only bear the man's frivolity forcefully.

But he said that the young master of the Lu family had already forgotten who Mu Yun was.

A few days ago, my grandmother knew that Father Lu was coming back, so she immediately sent him to the court and found him an official position so that he could behave well in front of Father Lu.

But since he was a child, he has been scolded by Lu's father a lot, so he is panicked towards Lu's father, and he also suppresses his temperament, trying to pretend to be good in front of Lu's father.

But after so many days, he didn't see Father Lu, and he viciously expected Father Lu to disappear, and at the same time, his nature gradually became uncontrollable.
