As the Third Elder finished his words, he suddenly felt something was amiss and exchanged glances with the First and Second Elders. It seemed, after all, that Mu Hanyan had rendered service to the family. It wasn't just a seeming thing, it was a fact. No, this couldn't be said out loud. This dandy, doing nothing all day, even hoarding family resources. Now that he'd done something, what if he deserved a reward? Reward him? No, absolutely not! That would be a waste!
At this moment, the three elders exchanged glances and reached a tacit agreement. They must not mention, absolutely not, Mu Hanyan's meritorious service.
"But how did Han Yan know such a secret place of the Zhou family?" The elder cleared his throat and asked in confusion.
"Well, everyone knows Hanyan likes to wander around all day, so she must have stumbled upon this by accident," the Second Elder offered a seemingly reasonable explanation. However, the underlying meaning was clear: Mu Hanyan was simply an idle dandy, with nothing to do all day. This time, she'd simply gotten lucky. She must have gone to a restaurant to indulge in some finery, only to unexpectedly attract the Zhou family's captive beast.
"Well, it's also good luck. Our Mu family should be more cautious." The third elder touched his beard and said solemnly.
Mu Ruian glanced at the three elders singing the same tune, without saying much, but nodded lightly: "Now that you know, you should be on guard against it in the future."
When the three elders heard Mu Ruian say this, they all felt relieved. Fortunately, Mu Ruian did not think about that. Otherwise, what would happen if he forced a credit on that dandy idiot?
Mu Ruian stood up, still in a calm tone: "That's it. Pay more attention to the movements of the Zhou family and other noble families." After that, Mu Ruian left.
The three elders exchanged glances, and a hint of relief and success flashed in their eyes.
But, does Mu Ruian really not know what these three people are thinking?
…
At this time, Mu Hanyan was sitting in her yard drinking tea: "Xier, your tea-making skills are still so good." Mu Hanyan said, shaking her head.
Xi'er burst out laughing: "My dear, you talk like you haven't had the tea I brewed for a long time. You obviously drink it every day."
Mu Hanyan just smiled and said nothing. Of course, she hadn't had Xi'er's tea for a long time, too long. It was just that she couldn't say this out loud.
Just at this moment, a servant came to report to Mu Hanyan that outside the City Lord's Mansion, Yi Qinglian, the eldest daughter of the Yi family, came to see him.
When Mu Hanyan heard this name, she was stunned for a moment.
Qinglian, Qinglian...
Can I see you again?
"Let her in quickly. No, wait, I'll go out to pick her up myself." Mu Hanyan stood up and rushed out in a hurry.
Xi'er looked at Mu Hanyan's hurried back and covered her mouth with her hands as she laughed. The eldest son still had the nerve to talk about her and her cousin, but look at him, he lost his composure when he heard it was Miss Yi. She didn't believe that there was nothing wrong between the two. Miss Yi was a good person and cute, and the most important thing was that she was truly kind to the eldest son. No matter what people said about the eldest son being a playboy or a fool, Miss Yi was the only one who insisted on being friends with the eldest son.
Xi'er didn't think they were just friends. She must have a keen eye for talent, knew the good qualities of the eldest son, and had a special liking for him! Xi'er insisted on thinking so in her heart.
If Mu Hanyan knew what she was thinking, she would definitely hit her head. What nonsense!
