Chapter 149: A Great Zhou Family? Fu Xuanheng's Plan
Madam Mu saw that Shen Yunyue, though not tall and quite young, had the demeanor of a lady from a wealthy family. She was steady and organized in her work.
I couldn't help but sigh:
"Thank you very much, benefactor. I will go buy some food first."
After saying this, Madam Mu pulled up the heel of her shoe, which had two holes in it, walked to the yard, and went out with a basket.
There was a boy with a long hair and a finger in his mouth.
He glanced at Shen Yunyue and ran out.
"Mom, wait for me."
After they leave.
Mu Ya bowed to Shen Yunyue and said, "My benefactor, Mu Ya is willing to stay by your side and be your servant."
Shen Yunyue didn't say anything and gently helped Mu Ya up.
She gathered her messy hair into a simple bun, took off a peach blossom wood hairpin from her head and pinned it on Mu Ya's bun.
He also took out a purple velvet flower from his bag and put it on the side of her bun.
"I'm still in mourning, and the velvet flower I'm wearing on my head is white. I can't take it off to give to you. This velvet flower suits you very well."
Mu Ya reached out and touched the velvet flower, her eyes filled with tears of excitement.
"Girl. This is too expensive."
Shen Yunyue took her hand and whispered:
"I don't need anyone to serve me. My husband and I are going to Shihan Province. It's a bitterly cold place, and we don't know what the weather is like there.
If you follow me, you'll only suffer. It's better for you to follow your parents."
Tears welled up in Mu Ya's eyes, as if she had suffered a great injustice. She bowed again and said, "I can never repay you for saving my life." Mu Ya envied the girl's martial arts skills and courage.
I hope to stay by your side, and I am willing to serve you as a slave."
Mu Ya made a great decision and looked at Shen Yunyue and said:
"Please give Mu Ya this chance. My parents will agree too."
"Shihanzhou is a bitterly cold place, and the young lady has no one to serve her. Mu Ya is willing to follow the young lady for the rest of her life."
Mu Ya still bent over steadily, as if she would not get up unless Shen Yunyue agreed.
Shen Yunyue didn't expect this girl to be so stubborn.
"Mu Ya, your parents will have a good life in the future. Wouldn't it be nice for you to follow them and marry into a good family?"
Mu Ya raised her head, her eyes clear and resolute.
"Girl, getting married depends entirely on luck. Mu Ya wants to live the life she wants and is willing to sign a death contract."
"this……."
If Mu Ya was critical of her, Shen Yunyue would find it easy to deal with.
Mu Ya didn't look like the kind of person who didn't know what was good for her. A girl like that, after some training, would definitely be a good helper.
Besides, this girl looks pitiful and sincere.
This put Shen Yunyue in a difficult position.
The door to the study opened.
Mu Yang clasped his fists and said:
"Girl, let Mu Ya serve you."
Shen Yunyue shook her head slightly. "To be honest, Xuan Heng and I were exiled to Shihanzhou as commoners. You've suffered a lot if you follow us."
Mu Ya didn't care.
"Mu Ya is just a humble person, born to suffer hardships. If I can serve you, I won't be afraid of any hardship."
A surge of blood rushed into Mu Ya's heart. She was not afraid of hardship, but she was afraid of a hopeless life.
Those days are more despairing than death.
She felt that at least she was in a good mood when she was with Shen Yunyue.
"I know how to do needlework, embroidery, laundry, and cooking. I've been educated by my father since I was little. I also understand financial matters. You might as well sign a death contract with me, young lady."
If I do anything wrong, it's up to the girl to decide whether to beat me, scold me, or sell me off."
Fu Xuanheng glanced at him indifferently.
"Yunyue, you really need a maid to serve you."
"Take it."
Since Fu Xuanheng said he would accept her, Shen Yunyue naturally agreed.
Fu Xuanheng has always had a good eye for people.
"Well. You stay at home today, and let Yingfeng come and take you to the Big Banyan Tree Inn tomorrow." Shen Yunyue thought about it and felt that Mu Ya was suitable to follow her.
It would be nice to be a maid by my side in the future.
Anyway, she went to Shihanzhou to be a rich and idle person.
She needs a maid who knows how to do financial calculations to help her with things.
"Thank you, young lady." Mu Ya saluted happily.
Fu Xuanheng gave Mu Yang some instructions and asked him to pack some books.
Mu Yang's words were full of respect.
"Sir, can I have someone deliver these books to the Banyan Tree Carriage Inn?"
"No need. Let us borrow your cart."
Fu Xuanheng naturally would not allow these books to appear in the inn.
It will cause controversy and make those people in the capital alert.
Mu Yang agreed.
Fu Xuanheng asked Mu Yang and Shen Yunyue to put the packed books in the car. Mu Yang couldn't move the books at all, so he watched Shen Yunyue lift them up with one hand and put them in the car easily.
He felt depressed.
Mu Ya couldn't close her mouth and tried it secretly.
Oh my god, I don’t have any strength at all.
Fu Xuanheng saw the dejected look on Mu Yang's father and daughter's faces and said coldly:
"Yun Yue is stronger than any ordinary man. You don't need to compete with her. You can't compare."
Mu Ya: .... He is indeed the person I admire, even his strength is a gift from God.
Mu Yang:……
Shen Yunyue looked at the small cart of books, and then saw that there were still many books in the study.
She blinked at Fu Xuanheng.
"I'll send these away first. You wait here until I come back."
Fu Xuanheng understood what Shen Yunyue meant, "Okay."
Mu Ya quickly spoke:
"I'll go with the girl."
Fu Xuanheng refused coldly:
"No, you wait here. You walk too slowly and you're holding me back."
Mu Ya: .... I thought to myself, I have to practice walking speed in the future.
After Shen Yunyue left, Fu Xuanheng picked out a lot of books. "I'll return these books to you later."
Mu Yang no longer looked listless as before.
Although the clothes didn't fit, the look on his face was different.
"Sir, these are your books. They have nothing to do with me, Mu Yang. From now on, I will not be lenient with the books collected by the Hexi Yang family."
"When the time comes, I will select some good books and send them to you, young master."
Fu Xuanheng happened to pull out a book with the words "Great Zhou Family" written on it.
"The Great Zhou family?" There was a smile on his lips, but that smile made people feel inexplicably cold.
The coldness in his eyes was like falling into an ice cellar.
Shen Yunyue was out for only a cup of tea before she came back pushing a cart.
Mu Ya looked at her in surprise, "Girl, such speed?" Could it be the legendary Qinggong?
As if seeing Mu Ya's doubt, Shen Yunyue smiled calmly:
"I don't know Qinggong. Only Xuanheng knows how to do it."
"The girl can read minds." Mu Ya quickly poured a glass of water for Shen Yunyue.
Putting the books on the cart again, Shen Yunyue took a look at the remaining books.
"Leave these to Mu Yang."
He asked Shen Yunyue for five hundred taels of silver and took off an opaque jade pendant from his body. He handed it to Mu Yang and said, "For the specific arrangements, please follow Jiang Chong's instructions."
"Take this jade pendant to the capital and find He Qishao, the owner of Feiying Tower."
"He will assist you with the rest."
Fu Xuanheng said a few more words.
Shen Yunyue thought that Mu Yang's body was too weak.
She took out a few bottles of pills from her cloth bag and gave them to him. "This bottle of green pills is for strengthening your body. Take one pill every day.
This bottle is the antidote pill. This bottle is for the person you want to deal with."
After handing these to him, he also gave him a bottle of golden wound medicine. "This golden wound medicine is different from the previous ones. It's the real good stuff."
Mu Ya's eyes were filled with tears.
How lucky they are to have met such a good master.
Mu Ya is determined to be loyal to Shen Yunyue for the rest of her life.
Mu Yang took it and knelt on the ground and bowed deeply.
"Mu Yang thanks the master."
Shen Yunyue pushed the cart, and Fu Xuanheng turned his wheelchair out of the Mu family courtyard by himself.
When they arrived at a secluded place, Shen Yunyue even put the cart into the space.
She looked at Fu Xuanheng's cold face and couldn't help but reach out and pinch his ear. "Xuanheng, how many things have you not told me?"
Fu Xuanheng's bony hand covered hers.
"You want to hear it?"
"Forget it, I don't want to listen." After a pause, he asked again:
"Are you sure about Mu Yang?"
Fu Xuanheng's mouth twitched, "Don't worry, Mu Yang has his own principles in dealing with people. He will be a loyal person."
"Yunyue, Jiang Chong is here. Let's go find him."
"Okay." Shen Yunyue also wanted to know what happened to Shen Ci'en and Mu Xiujin?
The two came to a teahouse.
In a secluded corner, Jiang Chong was seen sitting there drinking tea, with his ears perked up as if listening to someone talking.
Jiang Chong glanced at Fu Xuanheng and Shen Yunyue and nodded.
Only after Fu Xuanheng and Shen Yunyue arrived did Jiang Chong salute with his hand on the table.
"Master, it's too crowded and noisy here. We'll do the formalities later."
Fu Xuanheng said coldly:
"No need to be so polite."
"Pay your respects to Miss Yue." Jiang Chong knew the position of Shen Yunyue in Fu Xuanheng's mind.
He originally thought that the little girl was just Fu Xuanheng's wife.
People who have nothing to do with the business.
But it can be seen in Yanling Prefecture.
Fu Xuanheng would never avoid her no matter what he did.
Shen Yunyue nodded and said:
"How is the situation in Yanling Mansion?"
"The second wife of the Mu family is missing. It seems that she was taken away by a group of people with great martial arts skills, including Mu Xiuming." Jiang Chong said with his head lowered.
Fu Xuanheng frowned, "Why did he disappear?"
"Our people are still scattered all over the place, and some people are watching us. So we didn't send too many people to deal with the Mu Mansion.
Also, I was negligent and didn't expect someone to take them away."
Fu Xuanheng sighed:
"This is irrelevant. It's their Mu Mansion's business. Where is Mu Xiujin?"
"Second Young Master Mu found evidence to prove that Mu Xiuming is someone else's bloodline, and now Second Young Master Mu is trying to please him in every way.
However, the real Madam Mu Er has not been found yet."
"Well, let Second Young Master Mu participate in next year's Spring Examination. Send someone to find a way to submit his name list and also tell him the key topics."
Fu Xuanheng gave instructions one by one.
"yes."
Fu Xuanheng was talking to Jiang Chong about other issues.
…….
Shen Yunyue drank tea and ate snacks, occasionally interjecting her opinions.
Fu Xuanheng always stopped to listen carefully to Shen Yunyue's words, or explained things to her quietly, or asked Jiang Chong to follow Shen Yunyue's advice.
This made Jiang Chong feel even more that he would rather offend Fu Xuanheng than offend Shen Yunyue.
