Chapter 236 Unexpected
Chapter 236 Unexpected
Yu Heng held his chin with one hand, staring at Mu Yao quietly, thinking deeply about what she said.
He discovered an extremely crucial issue, moved his lips, and hesitated to speak, wondering whether he should express his thoughts.
"Jiyun, what do you want to say?" Mu Yao saw him frowning slightly and couldn't help but ask.
Yu Heng responded, then asked a question: "So, your father's house can actually be regarded as Wang Yanzhi's, right?"
Mu Yao blinked her eyes but did not deny it.
"That's the problem." Yu Heng picked up the teacup in his right hand and took a sip.
The young buds are fragrant and spirited, and when they are strong, they are like wine, and they bring you into a fairyland. Good tea!
He shook the cup twice and drank it all in one gulp.
"What's the problem?" Mu Yao's expression gradually became serious.
"You have to buy a house of your own, so that we can live in peace and comfort. Then you won't have to rush around everywhere."
She would not stop until her words shocked the world. A bolt of lightning struck directly from above Mu Yao's head, frying her to a crisp on the outside and leaving her tender on the inside.
What Yu Heng said, looking at Yunqi, is contrary to etiquette!
However, it makes sense! This statement was so eye-opening that it enlightened Mu Yao instantly.
She is not from Yunqi, so why should she care about these rules and regulations?
Without destruction there is no construction, destruction precedes construction, the greater the destruction, the greater the construction!
"Okay! I'll buy it tomorrow!" Mu Yao said with determination.
She not only wants to buy one in Lanling County, but also in Shangjing, as well as in Xianshui and Nanjiang. She must have her own place to stay.
This time it was Yu Heng's turn to be surprised. He had thought his wife would be unhappy after hearing what he said, but he did not expect her to be so considerate and willing to accept advice. He immediately felt better and drank a glass of red wine.
This wine is not as weak as the shopkeeper said.
After a while, his jade-like face turned rosy, his eyes were as clear as spring water, and he stared at his wife's gorgeous face in a daze, his heart and soul were distracted.
"Yaoyao, do you have to go back to your father tonight?"
Mu Yao looked embarrassed, and nodded, avoiding his burning gaze.
"Yes. Let's go. Dad will be worried if we go back too late." She looked at the moonlight outside the window and estimated that it was already midnight. Shaoyou might have returned, and she still had to talk to her father in detail.
"Okay." There was a barely perceptible disappointment in Yu Heng's eyes. He stood up and leaned against the railing, letting the cool breeze caress his face to dispel his drunkenness. He then got into the carriage with Mu Yao.
Yu Heng was surprised that Yueweilou gave them a discount today. The two of them didn't order much, and he felt a little bad about this unexpected kindness, so he bought a few taels of "June Yellow" to show his gratitude.
Mu Yao was immediately certain that the shopkeeper here must have known her identity, and she raised her lips and nodded slightly to Hu Xuan generously.
The flowers were so beautiful that they were dazzling. Hu Xuan was so moved by her smile that he did not withdraw his fascinated gaze until the carriage disappeared without a trace.
"Old Hu, stop looking. Tell me what the relationship between the Madam and that young man is?"
Ji Chuchen's voice suddenly sounded from behind him. Hu Xuan was startled and almost chopped him down with a palm.
"Are you looking for death?! Who are you calling Old Hu? You have no respect for your elders!" Hu Xuan was so angry that his teeth were itching. He was ranked ninth among the Ten Great Venerables, and Ji Chuchen was at the bottom. He kept calling him Old Hu, and he was spoiled by Old Feng!
"In three months' time, there will be an assessment for the Venerables. Not to mention ninth place, it's not impossible for me to advance to eighth or seventh place. Look how pretentious you are." Ji Ruchen shook his eyebrows with a roguish smile and glanced at Old Nine several times.
He wasn't talking nonsense! During this period, Jin Yanhui had been pestering him to practice martial arts, and he couldn't dodge no matter how hard he tried. Before they knew it, both of them had improved their martial arts skills.
If nothing unexpected happens, Jin Yanhui will be ranked tenth this time. As for him, he just needs to squeeze Hu Xuan out.
This was intolerable. These words hurt Hu Xuan's heart, and a strong palm wind suddenly rose up and swept towards Ji Chuchen's face.
Ji Chuchen didn't expect that Hu Xuan would actually attack him in public. He was unable to dodge and was hit in the left shoulder. He retreated three feet before he could barely stabilize his body.
"You're really serious!" He was also very angry.
"Who called you cheap!" Hu Xuan snorted heavily, flicked the dust off his sleeves, turned around and leaped into the void.
"You haven't answered my fucking question about the relationship between Madam and that guy!" Ji Chuchen wanted to cry but had no tears. The Lord was still waiting for his reply! But looking at the Lord's reaction today, he didn't look surprised. His concentration was really good! If it was him, he would have taught that kid a lesson long ago!
At the first quarter of the evening, the moon rose above the treetops.
After Yu Heng escorted Mu Yao to Xiasi Garden, he followed Li Dan's car back to Guiqi Garden.
At the gate, Mu Yao saw an unfamiliar carriage parked nearby. She looked at it suspiciously but did not see the coachman.
When he walked to the veranda, he saw Zhao Yu and asked loudly, "Uncle Zhao, is Shaoyou back?"
"Miss!" Zhao Yu looked back, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "My son-in-law hasn't come back yet. That young master has come and is in the master's yard. There is also a young man in his teens. I am rushing to bring him some fruit. By the way, the master said that when you come back, he will let you go find him."
Shi Jingchan and Li Yan are here? Strange, how did they know the address of Xiasi Garden?
"Uncle Zhao, I'll take it to Ali." Mu Yao took the tray from Zhao Yu with a smile.
"The young master is in the hall. Thank you, young lady." Zhao Yu smiled from ear to ear. He knew that the young man who was so handsome that he seemed unreal must be the new son-in-law.
In the central hall, Li Yan was lying on the eight-immortals table, fiddling with the potted plants beside him out of boredom.
"Ali." Mu Yao called softly, and smiled as she invited him to have some fruit.
"Sister, why did you come back just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time!" He had been bored for nearly an hour and was almost falling asleep while waiting.
"How do you know I live here?" Mu Yao asked curiously.
"The young master said so."
"Oh? How did Jingchan know that?"
Li Yan was slightly stunned. Didn't his sister tell the young master? He shook his head. He had never heard the young master mention this.
"Miss, I told Master Shi." Zhao Yu smiled and handed a nine-linked ring and a tangram to Li Yan, then continued, "That day, after you and Master Shi had dinner at Shuiyunjian, he came to look for you the next day, but you had gone to Lanling County. Later, on the day when we moved to Xiasi Garden, Master Shi came to the mansion to look for you again, and I gave him the address of Xiasi Garden."
So that’s how it is. Mu Yao understood.
But what urgent matter did Shi Jingchan have that made him look for her again and again?
She played with Li Yan for a while and went straight to "Han'aiyuan".
I knocked on the door, and the room was brightly lit and filled with the aroma of tea.
"Dad, Jingchan." Mu Yao smiled, with two shallow dimples on her cheeks.
Li Changan coughed and called her over, while Shi Jingchan sat upright with a serious expression and his back straight.
The atmosphere was a little weird. Mu Yao didn't understand what was going on. She looked at Shi Jingchan blankly, wondering how she had offended him.
If he really offended me, it was him who offended me! But Mu Yao didn't bother with him. Shi Jingchan was drunk that day, so he probably couldn't remember anything.
"Jingchan, why did you come to see me today?" Mu Yao drank a bowl of tea and saw that her father was still pouring tea into his mouth. He was as silent as Shi Jingchan, and she couldn't help feeling uneasy.
Shi Jingchan twisted the white jade Buddhist beads with a cold look on his face, glanced at the visitor, and suddenly stood up, bowed and left.
Mu Yao stared at his back for a long time, then turned to look at Li Changan and asked, "Dad, what happened to Jingchan?"
Li Changan stroked his white beard fiercely and said in a deep voice: "Yaoyao, Young Master Shi has come here today to ask Dad for marriage."
"What? Proposing marriage?" Mu Yao shouted out of control, her head buzzing and her heartbeat losing rhythm in an instant.
