Chapter 228 Are you quarreling with me?

Mo Jiuye did not tell Nanrui that he could not send his beloved wife to the forefront of the storm at this time.

Although what Nanrui said can stand up to scrutiny, Nanrui has done things that are detrimental to the Mohist school anyway.

If he knew that Ranran could remove the poison, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't have some bad intentions.

"The one who cured myna was a hermit, and I don't know his whereabouts now."

Nan Rui became anxious upon hearing this. He had finally found someone who could remove the poison using other methods, but Mo Jiuye didn't know the other person's whereabouts.

"Can you give me some clues?"

Mo Jiuye didn't want to keep the matter secret completely. In case helping Nanrui's mother to remove the poison would be beneficial to him, he would still consider letting Ranran take action.

"The person who helped my starling detoxify has a rather eccentric personality. He doesn't like to meet strangers and doesn't reveal his true face. If I were to rashly disclose his whereabouts, I'm afraid it would bring trouble to the Mohist School."

Nan Rui promised sincerely, "I swear, as long as you can help me find the master who can remove the poison, I will agree to do anything you ask me to do."

Mo Jiuye was not in a hurry to express his opinion on this. For such a big matter, he had to discuss it with Ranran before giving a response.

"If Prince Rui is not in a hurry to leave these days, I will try to contact that expert and inform you as soon as I have any news."

There is a reason why Mo Jiuye did this.

He wanted to follow the clues of Nanrui to find the mysterious man with white hair and youthful face. Only by finding that person could he get the news of his eldest and second brothers.

Seeing that Mo Jiuye was willing to help him find a solution, Nanrui stood up excitedly and even forgot that he was a prince.

He bowed deeply to Mo Jiuye.

"As long as you can help my mother get rid of the poison, I will do anything you ask of me."

Many nobles in the capital knew about Nanrui's filial piety.

Nanrui and his mother were not favored in the palace since childhood. It can be said that they have survived to this day by sticking together for warmth. It is easy to imagine Nanrui's feelings for his mother.

Mo Jiuye stood up directly: "Three days later, it will still be this place. I will inform His Royal Highness Prince Rui."

"Okay, I'll wait here for your good news."

Mo Jiuye stopped looking at Nanrui, took He Zhiran's hand and stood up: "Myna, let's go back."

Instead of returning to Xiling Village immediately, they went to the county government office.

At this time, Meng Huaining had already dealt with the aftermath of the smallpox incident. Seeing the few people coming back, he prepared to treat them to a dinner.

As for Nanrui, he didn't come to see me, so I just ignored him.

Mo Jiuye politely declined.

"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Meng. However, we have been out all day, and my mother at home will be worried. I will not bother you here today."

Meng Huaining did not force them to stay: "In that case, I will take you out."

The three of them got on the mule cart. Mo Jiuye and Mo Chuhan looked around vigilantly. After seeing that there was nothing wrong, they drove the mule cart straight to Xiling Village.

Nan Rui is here, and even though most of them believe what he says, there is always a chance of something happening.

In this regard, they think it is better to be cautious.

When they returned to Xiling Village, the family was indeed very anxious. Old Mrs. Mo, accompanied by her fifth son, was anxiously looking into the distance at the entrance of the village.

If they don't come back, the old man plans to let Mo Zhongyuan go to Yuncheng to look for them.

Mo Chongyuan is a martial artist, so his hearing is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people.

When the mule cart was still some distance away from the village entrance, he heard the noise and helped Mrs. Mo to go over.

The mule cart was moving very fast and soon appeared in Madam Mo's sight.

Mo Jiuye didn't bother to explain too much. He first sent his mother into the carriage with He Zhiran, while his fifth brother and eighth brother walked home.

In the carriage, He Zhiran told his mother-in-law about his encounter with Tang Mingrui today and the smallpox misunderstanding. After all, there must be a reason why they came back so late.

As for Nanrui's coming to Yuncheng, He Zhiran did not intend to tell Madam Mo, so as not to add to the old lady's troubles.

When they returned home, the furniture they had bought in the city had already been delivered, everyone had settled in, the sisters-in-law had prepared the meals, and the whole family was waiting for them to come back for dinner.

Fantuaner was originally following Mo Hanyue in the room to play with some little rabbits. When he sensed the presence of his master, he rolled and crawled out.

But when the little guy saw He Zhiran, he didn't throw himself into her arms as he did in the past. Instead, he came to her side and didn't look at her awkwardly.

He Zhiran couldn't help laughing and picked up the little guy.

"Rice ball, are you quarreling with me?"

Fantuaner turned his head away again, refusing to look at his master.

He Zhiran was immediately amused by this little guy.

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. Isn't it okay to give you something delicious later?"

Is there anything delicious?

After all, Fantuaner couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food. He slowly turned his round little body and rubbed it hard in his owner's arms.

He Zhiran coaxed the naughty little cutie into peace, and after dinner he took Mo Jiuye and the little guy into the space.

She took out carrots, apples and pumpkins directly from the warehouse for Fantuan to eat, and then sent the little guy to its own bamboo forest with just a thought.

Seeing his wife was free, Mo Jiuye asked, "What do you think about removing the poison from Nanrui's mother?"

The reason why he didn't agree to Nanrui immediately was that he wanted to ask his wife's opinion privately.

If his wife disagrees, he will not force her no matter what benefits it brings to the Mo family.

He Zhiran could more or less guess what Mo Jiuye was thinking.

"Are you planning to use Nanrui's connections to find that person?"

Mo Jiuye nodded: "I do have such an idea."

"It's indeed correct for you to think this way. If Nanrui's mother can really remove the poison, he will no longer be controlled by that person, and it will be easier for him to do things then.

In addition, Nanrui placed his hope of helping his mother to get rid of the poison here. He believed that he would not spread the affairs of the Mo family after returning, which would temporarily shut him up.

But do you really trust Nanrui that much? "This is the real question that He Zhiran is thinking about.

After all, she and the original owner didn't know Nan Rui well enough, so it was up to Mo Jiuye to judge whether he was an enemy or a friend.

"I have carefully considered what Nanrui said, and there is no contradiction between what he said and what he said. Therefore, I can conclude that what he said is true.

But this does not rule out the possibility that Nanrui did this deliberately to retreat in order to advance. Regardless of his purpose in coming to the Northwest, I just want to achieve my goal first.

As for what happens in the future, we can only deal with it as it happens."

He Zhiran completely agreed with what Mo Jiuye said.

From Nanrui's description of the mysterious man, it can be concluded that this man's actions are very strange and he does not show his true face. It must be difficult to find him.

Therefore, the third brother may not gain anything from this trip. Now that they have clues to find the mysterious man, they cannot let this line break at any cost.
