Mu Qi, who was in the study, frowned in displeasure when he heard the noisy sound coming from his ears.
These servants really don't understand the rules more and more.
He put down the brush in his hand and picked up the tea cup on the table, intending to moisten his throat.
At this moment, the boy who came in to deliver the message also rushed to the study, and his voice became louder and louder.
"Master, the second master is back!"
Mu Qi's hand shook violently, and the tea in his hand poured out, all of it spilling on the book below.
But he ignored the books and stood up in a hurry, the chair under him scraping against the ground making a harsh sound.
He quickly walked to the door and opened it. The boy outside who was about to knock on the door suddenly stopped what he was doing.
"Old...master."
Mu Qi looked at the boy and asked, "What did you just say?"
The boy who came to deliver the message was startled and stammered: "Slave, I just said that Butler Mu has brought the second master back."
Mu Qi suppressed his excitement and asked again: "Where did you hear the news?"
"Slave, I just saw it with my own eyes." The boy who delivered the message reacted and replied respectfully: "Butler Mu has already brought him in."
Mu Qi couldn't believe it. Is it what he thought?
His second brother is back???
When disasters occurred in King Changding's fiefdom, he also sent many people to pick up his second brother and his niece, but they all found nothing.
And after so much time, he kept asking for news.
But with the constant reports of the tragic scenes outside, he had actually given up hope for a long time.
Who would have thought that we would hear this news at this time!
Mu Qi even forgot to react.
He raised his feet, but he was afraid that all this was false.
Just when he was hesitating, Butler Mu's voice came over.
"Master, the second master is back!"
Mu Qi was startled and raised his eyes to look in the direction of the sound.
Butler Mu came over from behind the Crescent Gate with a large group of people.
There were more than twenty people in the crowd.
But the first thing Mu Qi saw was Mu Ping walking beside Butler Mu in the crowd.
The group of people who passed through the Crescent Gate also saw a boy who was bending over to reply in front of a house and another middle-aged man who looked somewhat shrewd.
Mu Ping took two quick steps to pass Butler Mu, and shouted excitedly: "Brother!"
Mu Qi finally came to his senses and knew that all this was true.
He also walked towards Mu Ping excitedly, not dissing the dirt on Mu Ping's body at all, and directly grabbed his shoulders with one hand.
"Second child?"
Mu Ping said happily: "It's me, brother."
Mu Qi looked behind and asked worriedly: "Where is Qiqi? Are they all back safely?"
Mu Ping waved back and said, "I'm back, Qiqi, come and see your uncle."
Mu Qiqi walked over and obediently gave a junior salute: "Well, uncle."
Mu Qi saw Ping An's second brother and gentle and lovely niece standing in front of him alive, and his heart finally settled.
He laughed and shouted "hello" so many times that the joy in his tone almost overflowed.
"It'll be good when you come back, it'll be good when you come back."
The three of them stood there chatting for a while, and then Mu Qi remembered that Butler Mu had brought back many people.
"Who are these people?"
Mu Ping quickly introduced: "Brother, thanks to them, Qiqi and I were able to get here safely!"
With that said, he quickly introduced the Jiang family one by one.
When introducing Ouyang Ming, Bai Yifeng, Ming Yixi, Ming Yuanqing, brother and sister, they just gave a brief introduction.
He then looked at the Jiang family and introduced him: "This is my eldest brother. Everyone should know it."
Mu Qi looked at the Jiang family and greeted them: "Everyone, please stop standing here. Let's go to the living room."
Everyone changed their positions and headed towards the reception room in the front yard.
Mu Mansion occupies a large area. After they left Mu Qi's study, they walked through a small garden before walking to the front hall.
While passing by the small garden, everyone happened to bump into a middle-aged woman who seemed to be quite wealthy.
Behind the woman were two maids, one of whom reminded softly: "Madam, it's the master."
After hearing the maid's reminder, Mrs. Mu looked towards the other side of the small garden, and sure enough she saw Mu Qi and a group of people behind her.
Arriving at the center of the garden, the two groups faced each other.
Mrs. Mu shouted: "Master."
Mu Qi smiled and asked, "Madam is back. Did anything happen in the hospital?"
Mrs. Mu nodded and said: "There are indeed some things. I will talk to the master in detail when we have a rest in the evening."
Then she looked at the group of people behind Mu Qi, and her eyes paused for a moment on Mu Ping's face, which was somewhat similar to Mu Qi's.
She asked: "Who are these people? Why didn't you hear from your husband that there are guests coming over today?"
She reviewed Mu Ping's appearance in her mind and asked with some surprise: "Is this the second brother?"
Mu Qi stepped forward to stand with Mrs. Mu and said with a smile: "Madam is really smart, she guessed it right."
Mrs. Mu opened her mouth, wanting to ask Mu Ping how he came back, but she swallowed it anyway.
Mrs. Mu turned her gaze to the Jiang family and asked, "What are these?"
Mu Qi said: "These are all brought back with the second brother. They helped the second brother and Qiqi a lot along the way."
Mrs. Mu looked at the dusty appearance of this group of people and scolded: "Second brother and the others have just come back, why don't they arrange a guest room for them to freshen up?"
Mu Qi slapped his forehead and said in annoyance: "My wife is thoughtful, butler, please take the guests to the guest room to rest for a while. I will ask the servants to deliver the meals to your respective rooms in a while. Let's have a good gathering in the evening."
.”
I just suddenly got the news that Mu Ping and the others were back, and I immediately wanted to have a chat with them. I actually forgot that they had just come back from a turbulent journey and were still exhausted.
The Jiang family and others were arranged into the guest room.
Not long after Jiang Zhiyue arrived in the room, a servant immediately brought hot water and a change of clothes.
Jiang Zhiyue felt that Mu Qi and Mrs. Mu's arrangements were quite thoughtful.
Jiang Zhiyue lay in the tub and sighed comfortably.
This is how people should live~
During the five months of escaping from famine, although they had never been without water, they did not have the opportunity to take a good bath like this.
Jiang Zhiyue washed the dirt on her body thoroughly before getting out of the tub.
Jiang Zhiyue put on the clothes just sent by her servants.
The material of the clothes is very good, similar to the material worn by Mrs. Mu just now, and the color is also a darker purple.
This color is very similar to what married ladies like Mrs. Mu wear.
When Jiang Zhiyue put it on, she found that the clothes were still a little loose.
The maid outside heard the commotion inside and said softly from outside: "Have you finished getting dressed? The maid will bring the food in."
Jiang Zhiyue's cold voice came from inside the house: "Come in."
