Chapter 740

Chapter 740

For a moment, Mu Mian felt that the city lord was also a pitiful person.

He looks like a terminally ill patient who can't get enough of the woman he loves.

Mu Mian remembered the medicine that the city lord took just now, there is still in the drawer, what kind of medicine is it?With an idea, she turned her back to Feng Yun, pretended to wipe the drawer, and quietly took a medicine from the medicine jar and hid it in her sleeve.

Feng Yun shifted his gaze to Mu Mian, looking at her back thoughtfully, Yun Mian was clearly by his side right now, but he was already feeling sorry for Yun Mian who had returned from the catastrophe, so that he was overly worried.

People who know the ending in advance often have to bear more.

After Mu Mian wiped the inside and outside of the study, and then looked around, Feng Yun had already fallen asleep, and the portrait was rolled up by him, and he never let go of his hand.

People who have taken the medicine generally sleep more deeply. For Mu Mian, this is a good time to steal paintings.

Mu Mian cautiously walked towards the bed, and after further confirming that Feng Yun was asleep, she secretly pulled the portrait out of his hand.

Finally got it!
Mu Mian put away the portrait and was about to leave. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped and hesitated.

At this moment, her heart is at war between heaven and man, taking away the portrait, so that she can persuade her father to ask the city lord to cancel the engagement, but in this way, will the city lord lose the portrait of his beloved, will the disease worsen?
For some reason, Mu Mian suddenly felt pity. She turned around and put the hard-won portrait into Feng Yun's palm. Although she didn't achieve her goal, she felt inexplicably at ease.

After Mu Mian left the bedroom and closed the door, Feng Yun slowly opened his eyes, looking at the portrait in his hand, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he didn't know whether it was joy or sadness.

After Mu Mian left the city lord's mansion, she went straight to the pharmacy with the pills in her pocket, and asked the doctor to see what kind of medicine it was.

After looking at it, the doctor said: "My lord, this is a special-effect heart-rescuing pill. People who take this medicine have serious heart disease, which is caused by excessive worry for a long time. If the heart disease is not cured, it may be difficult to live for three years."

This……

Mu Mian was stunned, the dignified city lord actually suffers from a serious heart disease?Actually worrying too much?In the Windy City, it can be said that he wants the wind to get the wind, and the rain to get the rain, why is he so hard to think about it?
No wonder he said that anyone who knows about this will die.

Luckily she slipped away fast.

Mu Mian asked again: "Doctor, do you know how to cure heart disease?"

The doctor stroked his beard, and spread his professional knowledge to Mu Mian: "Heart disease needs heart medicine. It depends on what worries him in his heart. Untie his heart knot, and the heart disease can be cured."

"Understood, thank you doctor." Mu Mian said as she got up and left the pharmacy, wandering on the street.

Based on what he saw in the past two days, Mu Mian guessed that Feng Yun's heart disease might be related to the woman in the painting.

Who is that woman?Is it possible to cure his heart disease as long as he finds that woman?

Thinking in this way, Mu Mian came to the art gallery and found the best painter in the art gallery, and let her tell the girl's appearance and draw it from the artist's pen.

After the artist finished his brush, he took the portrait and looked at it carefully, looked at the portrait, then looked at Mu Mian, and then said: "Master, the woman in the painting is somewhat similar to you, could it be your sister? You said earlier, I It’s okay to draw according to your appearance.”

"Don't talk nonsense." Mu Mian took the portrait and looked at it again and again. I don't know if the woman in the original painting is too beautiful, or the artist's skill is not good enough. Now this fake is far from the real one she has seen. One-tenth of the woman's expression will be drawn.

Speaking of which, the eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to hers, but... the artist must have been lazy, and painted a few strokes according to her eyebrows and eyes, so there are some similarities, and you can't tell if you don't look carefully.

No matter what, I will reluctantly take the painting back and discuss with the two sisters before making a plan.

Mu Mian returned to Mu Mansion with the portrait, and just walked into the lobby, when she heard Dad's voice from inside, "Nonsense! You guys are getting more and more messed up! The city lord didn't say that he would cancel the engagement, so that means The marriage contract is still counted, and this matter cannot be mentioned again!"

Mrs. Mu said: "Master, I think what the children said is not unreasonable. If the city lord intends to fulfill the marriage contract, it will not be delayed for so many years. How long can the girl's youth last? In the past few years, people outside Judging by the jokes of our Mu family, canceling may not be a good thing, the twisted melon is not sweet."

Mu Yan and Mu Si agreed: "Yes, yes, the city lord already has someone he likes, as long as Dad mentions the divorce to the city lord, the city lord will definitely agree."

"Nonsense, if the city lord has someone he likes, how can he not show it at all? What kind of woman does he want? If he really has someone he likes, he would have been married long ago." Mu Zheng waved his hand, vetoing this statement.

Mu Mian listened outside for a while, and after hearing some clues, she walked into the lobby.

Everyone turned their eyes to Mu Mian, and Mu Si came up to meet her, stared at the portrait in her hand, looked happy, and asked, "Amian, did you get the portrait?"

Mu Zheng also looked at the portrait in Mu Mian's hand, and asked, "What portrait?"

Before Mu Mian could speak, Mu Si couldn't wait to take the portrait, opened it to look at it, and muttered, "This is the woman the City Lord loves? Why does it look familiar?"

"This is not the real work. I asked a painter to draw it. Let's just see." Mu Mian took the painting and put it away, and said to Mu Zheng: "Father, my child has already found out that the city lord does have someone he likes, so... ... I implore father to play the city lord and give an explanation on the marriage, so as not to delay the two sisters."

"Alas~~" Mu Zheng sighed. In his opinion, the marriage contract between the city lord and the Mu family was not his wishful thinking. After years of secret observation, he knew that the city lord was interested in the daughter of the Mu family. The Mu family followed her secretly.

The only thing Mu Zheng can confirm is that the city lord's heart has never changed, and the people he sent to the Mu Mansion to keep an eye on these years have not withdrawn. Not only that, he once saw the city lord appearing in the Mu Mansion late at night, coming and going quietly .

The city lord has been dragging on for the past few years, is there something unspeakable?

It seems that it is time to take the initiative to talk to the city lord about this matter.

Mu Zheng thought carefully and said: "The city lord's thoughts are unpredictable. If he opens his mouth rashly, the fact that Ah Mian sneaked into the city lord's mansion will be leaked. In this case, wouldn't it be like shooting yourself in the foot? Don't act rashly in this matter. Make plans when the time is right.”

The three daughters of the Mu family couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw that their father had finally let go.

Mu Si asked again: "Father, when will the time be considered ripe?"

Mu Zheng pinched his fingers and counted the days, and said: "Every year on May [-]th, the city lord will go to Fuze Mountain to fast for seven days, praying for good weather in Fengcheng and the well-being of the people. At that time, officials and family members will accompany them to collect blessings to the people."

Mu Zheng paused at this point, and continued: "At this time of year, there is an unwritten rule that whoever picks the biggest fruit and presents it to the city lord will be rewarded by the city lord. .”
