As soon as they entered the door, they saw the Mu family members inside. They all stopped what they were doing and stared at them fiercely.
Lin Mengya and Axiu were fine, but Lin Mengwu couldn't help but wince and grabbed Shangguanqing's hand.
Mu Zhen's peripheral vision never left the four women behind him.
Even though he knew the young master's intention, the behavior of the four women behind him was really completely different.
No wonder the young master insisted on letting Su Mei be the hostage.
Finally, against the glare of those people, they passed through the front yard smoothly.
But unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he was blocked by someone.
"Mu Zhen, who are they?"
What appeared in front of Lin Mengya was a pretty girl.
The girl was only a teenager, but she was cute and charming, with an innocent look on her face.
But Lin Mengya could tell at a glance that the girl was a beautiful scorpion that could sting people to death.
Behind the girl, two identical twin girls were seen, obviously, they were her personal maids.
At this time, the girl was looking at them with curious eyes.
Mu Zhen said to the girl in a very respectful manner.
"In response to my cousin, these four are the guests specially invited by the Young Master from the Gong family. Recently, they will stay in our house temporarily."
Miss Cousin?
Lin Mengya passed through Mu Yucheng's information in her mind.
I heard that his mother's natal family was extremely powerful, so when Mu Yucheng was competing for the position of heir, he relied on a lot of influence from his maternal ancestors.
It seems that this cousin is not that simple.
She looked at the other person calmly, and the other person did the same.
Just as the two were secretly competing, she heard Lin Mengwu behind her speaking very affectionately.
"It turns out that you are Miss Song. I have long admired your name. When I saw you today, you are indeed extraordinary. Miss Song, you will be troubled by your dancing in the lower palace in the future."
Interrupted by Lin Mengwu, the two people looked away at the same time.
Song Lin'er hid the boredom in her heart and smiled sweetly, looking more like a harmless and ignorant girl.
"Miss Gong, if you are here, I am just a guest. From now on, when we are together, we must get along well. Mu Zhen, don't neglect the two of you. You two, if I still have something to do, I won't apologize.
You two are here. If you have a chance in the future, you can go to my place to drink tea and chat."
Lin Mengya nodded, her attitude seemed a little cold.
On the other hand, Lin Mengwu beside her looked familiar.
Seeing Song Lin'er disappear, Lin Mengwu came out looking embarrassed.
"Sir, it's not that Wu'er is talkative. Miss Song is so innocent and cute, why do you have to keep a straight face? It's no wonder that Mr. was born in a scholarly family and doesn't understand much about the communication between young ladies from such aristocratic families. In the future, Sir, just watch me more and see how I do it."
What do you see in her?
I don’t know where Lin Mengwu got her confidence.
Lin Mengya didn't bother to pay attention to her and walked straight into the inner courtyard.
"Sir, I'm doing this all for you, don't be ungrateful."
After leaving the Gong family, or because she was sure that Su Mei didn't have the ability to return to the Gong family, Lin Mengwu's attitude became even more rude.
Lin Mengya didn't take it to heart at all. This was the Mu family. Even though Gong Tu was colluding with the Mu family, Lin Mengwu didn't have the final say here.
Soon, they arrived at the guest living room.
Sandalwood is burning inside, and the energy is concentrated.
But Lin Mengya only thought it was ridiculous. This place was obviously the Asura Hell, how could there be room for such pure and elegant sandalwood?
Mu Yucheng is truly a person without any scruples.
In short, he is a lunatic.
There is no common sense in dealing with madmen.
"You two sit down for a while, I will go and inform the young master."
As soon as they sat down, tea was served to them.
The person who served the tea was an ordinary maid, but she looked trembling and timid.
Obviously, working as an errand in the Mu family is not that easy.
Not long after, footsteps were heard outside.
"Mr. Su, Miss Wu, my young master is here."
Mu Zhen's voice sounded again, and Lin Mengya tensed up all her nerves.
She stood up and saluted Mu Yucheng gracefully.
"Everyone, please sit down."
The clear and cold sound quality is inexplicably reminiscent of the glaciers in the twelfth lunar month.
It seems that everything will be frozen by him.
Talking to him is like walking on thin ice.
If you are not careful, you will be buried in his coldness.
However, there was someone who was blind and sent it up on purpose.
"Thank you, Mr. Mu."
The delicate and sweet voice, at this moment, is as greasy as cooled lard.
Lin Mengya secretly sighed in her heart that the other party was seeking death, but her face remained calm.
She was still hoping that they would bite the bullet, but obviously, Mu Yucheng did not give her this chance.
"I think Mr. Su Mei already knows everything about the palace merchants, right? Then I won't talk nonsense. I invite you here because I hope to urge the palace family to find out the truth as soon as possible. Here, I will definitely
I will not embarrass Mr. Sumei."
Lin Mengya's precise explanation also made Lin Mengya understand herself again.
situation.
"Yes, I understand everything."
She did not try to say anything else to Mu Yucheng. In fact, she hoped that during these days, Mu Yucheng would have as little direct contact and communication with her as possible.
This man smelled of death.
And she is a person full of hope for life, so she still hides as far away as possible.
"Just be clear."
Mu Yucheng's eyes never left Su Mei.
He has met a lot of people, but there are very few people, which makes him feel unpredictable.
He also had the chance to meet the eldest lady of the Gong family once.
Even though everyone thought she was just a vase at the time, he still saw a trace of the ripples hidden deep in that person.
And now Su Mei makes him feel the same way.
No wonder, after Gong Ya disappeared, she was asked to guard the Gong family.
However, it is still unknown whether she has that ability.
"If nothing happens to the young master, can Su Mei retire?"
She asked in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, and Mu Yucheng nodded in agreement.
After walking away from Mu Yucheng step by step, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Just now, she almost thought that she was going to be seen through.
Mu Yucheng has extraordinary insight.
In front of him, those who are slightly worse in moral conduct will definitely be seen through.
Fortunately, with the Shennong System, she could control her facial expressions and even her breathing.
Nothing should have been discovered, right?
After calming down her anxiety a little, she came to a quiet courtyard under Mu Zhen's guidance.
"This is the small courtyard for Mr. Su Mei to stay temporarily. After a while, two women will come outside to wait for your orders. If you have anything you are not used to here, you can ask them to tell me."
She took a quick look and found that it was okay and not too shabby.
Those two women must have come over to look at me.
But since she was here to be a hostage, she didn't want to live a good life.
"In that case, I'll help you."
She took Axiu and walked in first.
Lin Mengwu behind her, on the other hand, had a dark face all the time, but after seeing the yard where she lived, she became a little happy.
With such a dilapidated courtyard, Mu Yucheng must have wanted to embarrass Su Mei.
But he was different. After all, the news sent by Uncle Tu said that he had colluded with the Mu family.
"What about us?"
She asked Mu Zhen politely, but the latter looked at them coldly and pointed ahead. r> "Since she is a young lady from the Gong family, she cannot be neglected. Please, come with me."
Lin Mengwu was extremely proud, glanced at Su Mei's courtyard mockingly, and followed Mu Zhen away.
The environment in the courtyard is not bad, it is quiet and quiet, and there are some wild flowers blooming in the yard.
Axiu carefully checked inside and out, and after making sure that there was nothing in it, she started to arrange it.
They didn't bring much, most of them were clothes and supplies.
The room was fairly spacious and clean, which was pretty good for a hostage.
"I thought they were going to lock us up."
After Axiu finished cleaning up, she squeezed her shoulders and whispered some words by the way.
"This is the way of the big aristocratic families. These big aristocratic families still have to be good at what they do on the surface."
But inside, it was extremely dirty and dirty.
Soon, two women who looked very smart and capable came outside.
"Mr. Su, from now on, the little ones will be responsible for waiting outside. The Mu family has many rules. If you have nothing to do, please don't go out casually to avoid embarrassment for the little ones."
Those two women were not polite at all.
Axiu just wanted to reply, but she stopped her.
"I see."
Seeing the two women being so arrogant, Axiu was a little surprised that Sister Ya, who had always been extremely aggressive, "turned off" at this moment.
"Why are you in such a hurry with them? What is supposed to come will come."
These two cannot even be called chess pieces.
If she gets angry now, she is wasting her time.
She closed her eyes and rested her mind, calculating the time. Her eldest brother and the others should be here by now.
I hope I can pick up my second brother smoothly.
In the study room of the small courtyard, Mu Yucheng was handling family affairs.
With a "bang" sound, the door was pushed open violently.
Song Lin'er pouted and walked up to him dissatisfied.
"Cousin, you are going too far!"
When Mu Yucheng heard this, he just raised his eyes and glanced at her indifferently.
"What's wrong?"
"You still ask me what's wrong, I ask you, why do you want me to live with that idiot?"
When she mentioned this, she became very angry.
That idiot has the name and identity of the Gong family for nothing, and has not been officially recognized by the Gong family yet. Who knows where he came from?
Unexpectedly, her cousin arranged for her to live in a courtyard with him.
Isn't this sincerity, does it make her eyes suffer?
