It was early morning when we arrived at Shoushan Town.
A hint of fish-belly white just appeared on the horizon, and the entire Shoushan Town was still asleep.
When a dog barked, Mu Yunhan opened his eyes and wanted to sit up and watch excitedly.
"Stop." Mu Ying quickly ordered the stretcher to stop and helped her up: "Sister, we are home."
After not returning for many years, Shoushan Town has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The quiet and elegant town that used to be was gone, and it was surrounded by towering brick walls.
A round arch was tightly closed, and there was a river leading outside. There were people looking down on the wall, and dogs were barking loudly.
At first glance, it looks like a small city.
Mu Yunhan's breathing became rapid. She stared blankly at the town in her memory with complicated emotions.
After spending so much money, it finally got something going, and thanks to Wu Yanzhuang turning a blind eye, it was able to be repaired.
"It's the madam who's back!" Someone shouted from the wall.
After the sound of the chains, the suspension bridge was lowered and the door was opened. Gou Sheng'er supported the white-haired Goddess Gu and walked out, followed by Zhang Butcher, Mu Donglai, Mu Tietou and others.
"Han girl..." Butcher Zhang shouted impulsively and was about to push forward.
But he saw Goddess Gu with a serious look on her face, straightening her back and bowing before her: "I have met Madam."
Butcher Zhang, Mu Donglai and others just had a meal and knelt down and kowtowed in salute. Upon seeing this, the group of young and strong men following them all followed suit and saluted.
Mu Yunhan was a little anxious, but still couldn't make a sound, so he grabbed Mu Ying and made a few gestures.
Mu Ying understood, stepped forward to help Goddess Gu, and then helped Zhang Butcher and others. She smiled and said, "Elders, please stop doing this. It's embarrassing."
As for the group of young and strong children and the slaves of the Mu family, she didn't give them much good looks. She just said calmly: "Everyone, please get up and act according to the rules."
After Mu Yunhan and others left, the old house in Shoushan Town was handed over to the management of Gu Shenpo. She was careful and resourceful in her work. She didn't need Mu Ying to pay more attention to it, and arranged everything first.
Already.
After entering the town and walking to the door of her house, when Mu Ying looked around, she saw that the courtyard wall of the house was much taller and thicker than before. There were people patrolling it day and night, just like the king of the mountain.
As for the inner courtyard, the furnishings and structure are almost the same as before, not much has changed.
After everything was settled, Goddess Gu took advantage of the rice to help Mu Yunhan take medicine, eat and wash up, and then called Mu Ying out: "What's going on? I think Madam's face is really ugly, and she has been silent... and your brother-in-law..."
After finally meeting a trustworthy elder, Mu Ying couldn't hold on any longer and threw herself into the arms of Goddess Gu and sobbed softly.
"Something happened to my brother-in-law... The underground river is deep and fast. I searched for several days but still couldn't find anyone. My sister's health is not optimistic. There are so many people who have to eat, drink and defecate, and they are afraid of leaking the news, so they are divided into two groups.
My brother is still there, let’s come back first..."
After listening to the general story, Gu Shenpo was so choked that she could not speak.
She and Old Man Gu had no children, and she had always regarded Gu Fenglin as her own. She only hoped that he would live a long and healthy life. When she suddenly heard such bad news, it felt like the sky had fallen.
Mu Ying was afraid that she would not be able to bear it as she got older, and she was filled with regret and fear, so she kept comforting her.
Comforting and comforting, the two hugged each other and cried together, fearing that Mu Yunhan would be even more heartbroken when he heard it.
