Because of Muchuan's words, the head of the Lin family was very happy and asked someone to prepare a banquet as soon as possible. He wanted to entertain Master Mu and the three of them.
The housekeeper quickly went to the kitchen, where a group of people who were eating looked at each other in confusion.
The butler slapped his forehead, it was just after lunch?
What kind of banquet are you having?
However, the head of the family had already given instructions. Failure to prepare would inevitably bring disgrace to the Lin family, so the cooks quickly picked up the food and went about their business.
Over in the front hall, Muchuan waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no, I just finished my meal, so there's no need to spend any money."
The head of the Lin family heard this but was unwilling.
"Master Mu, are you unwilling to sit at the same table with Mr. Lin?
Is the same true for the prince?
Where is Mr. Fang?"
The head of the Lin family looked at everyone with a hurt expression, as if they dared to say that if they nodded, he would faint from pain.
"No, no, no, Master Lin has misunderstood."
"Then I'll trouble you, Master Lin. I just want to try the Lin family's dishes."
Before Muchuan could finish speaking, the prince spoke.
Muchuan glanced at the prince, who waved his fan and had a calm expression on his face.
"Okay, okay! I also have some good wine specially brought from the south. We must have a good drink!"
The head of the Lin family was overjoyed when he received the prince's reply. He immediately went to order someone to open the wine cellar and get the wine without giving anyone else a chance to speak.
"I can't eat anymore."
Muchuan said helplessly to the prince.
"Master Mu, don't you plan to take advantage of the Lin family leader?"
The prince raised his eyebrows and asked.
Muchuan touched his chin, it seemed that it was not bad.
This man had a complete trade route from the Tang Dynasty to India and Pakistan. In the future, through his trade route, the merchants of the Tang Dynasty would have an additional foreign trade route.
Fang Cheng looked at the prince and then at Muchuan. He knew that eating or not eating this meal would affect whether he would have a friend like Master Lin in the future.
Under the warm reception of the head of the Lin family, Muchuan and the three of them all came out from the Lin family with their faces flushed.
"Go back to Shangshu Mansion."
After Muchuan finished giving instructions, the prince and Fang Cheng had already climbed onto the carriage. Muchuan also groped his way up, but the three of them finally couldn't help themselves and collapsed in the carriage.
Before Muchuan fell asleep, he had only one thought: The cost of this meal was really high.
It was already evening when several people woke up again, and they didn't know how the housekeeper got the three sleeping men out of the carriage. In short, Muchuan saw the familiar tent when he woke up, and it took him a while to realize what happened.
Something happened.
"Sir, you are awake. Do you need dinner?"
As soon as Muchuan came out of the room, he was discovered by the housekeeper.
"No need for now, where are you going?"
Muchuan saw the housekeeper holding a large roll of gauze, followed by a man carrying a bucket, a long pole and a large coat.
In this battle, I really couldn’t tell what I was trying to do.
"Oh, it's Miss Fang. I don't know when there was a beehive on the tree next to her courtyard wall. It looks quite big.
Miss Fang's maid was stung once, and Miss Fang was afraid that they would hurt others again, so she asked the old slave to poke the honeycomb."
The steward said.
Does he still have a beehive in his house?
Muchuan was a little curious and followed the housekeeper there.
"Brother Mu, are you okay?"
Xin'er was standing under the tree, trying to find the location of the beehive with the maids, when she heard someone talking by the door, turned around and saw Muchuan walking in front, and happily went up to meet him.
"Ahem, yes."
Muchuan was still a little embarrassed because Xin'er saw him drunk, so he felt awkward about it.
"What happened to Brother Mu so happy?"
Xin'er's two big eyes flashed, curious.
"Xiao Nizi is such a gossip, be careful not to get married!"
Muchuan teased her and scratched her nose.
"If I can't get married, I can't get married. I will live on the Mu family's food for the rest of my life and make you poor!"
Xin'er snorted from her nose and made a face at him.
"Then I have to work hard to make money, otherwise I may not be able to survive for long."
Muchuan looked so embarrassed that Xin'er stomped her feet angrily.
"Brother Mu, I didn't eat that much!"
Xin'er protested unhappily.
Muchuan chuckled and walked towards the tree.
Xin'er kept her hand on Muchuan's arm and walked forward with him.
"The leaves are too dense and it's hard to see clearly."
The housekeeper talked to the people around him, and he walked around trying to find the specific location of the hive, but the leaves were blown by the wind, and he couldn't figure it out for a while.
There were already attendants, fully armed, waiting for the steward's order.
"Can you climb a tree?
How about stabbing it in a tree?"
The butler asked the attendant beside him.
"This slave doesn't know how to do this."
The attendant's voice came from under the mask, muffled.
Muchuan stepped forward and observed it. He could see that there was a rough outline of a honeycomb, but he couldn't tell how big it was.
"Come here, go get Mingzhu's telescope."
Muchuan ordered.
Although he couldn't see clearly, he always felt that this hive was no ordinary hive.
After a while, the telescope was delivered, and Mingzhu and Sophia followed.
They had already heard that they were going to poke the beehive in Xiner's yard.
"Brother Mu, are you awake?"
Mingzhu asked happily when she saw Muchuan.
Muchuan responded awkwardly. Everyone had to wait for a while. This feeling was really unforgettable.
Muchuan took the telescope, found a suitable angle, and observed it carefully for a while.
A gust of wind blew and the leaves rustled. Everyone raised their heads and felt the comfort brought by the cool breeze.
Muchuan, who was observing on the other side, took a breath of cold air!
This is not an ordinary honeycomb, this is the honeycomb of a human-headed wasp! This nest shape resembles a human head, and Muchuan will not mistake it!
This honeycomb must not be poked!
While he was observing, the butler and the attendant who was about to poke the honeycomb had another exchange.
"I can't find the specific location. You need to be careful when stabbing. Are you sure?"
the steward asked.
"No problem. I've been poking honeycombs and stealing honey since I was a kid, and it's okay!"
The attendant was so confident that he even patted his chest to show that he could do it.
The housekeeper nodded and said to Xin'er, Mingzhu and the others behind him:
"Why don't you three ladies go to the house first? Let's start now."
Mingzhu and the others knew not to disturb them at this time, so they nodded and entered the room.
"Close the windows, don't open them."
The housekeeper warned again, these are all beautiful girls, but they can't be stung by bees, that would be a pity.
The housekeeper looked up again and looked at Muchuan's position. It was quite high and far away, at a safe distance.
"Okay, I'll go into the wing and you can do it."
After the butler finished speaking, he went into the utility room and watched the attendant's movements through the window.
So, when Muchuan was surprised that this was actually the hive of a human-headed wasp, he saw that the human-headed wasp suddenly flew up like it was frightened, but then quickly fell down.
