Mu Hanyan vaguely understood that these playboys were actually a bit like her former self: not valued by her family, always wanting to prove themselves, but using the wrong methods, they accidentally became a group of playboys. However, their reputation was not very good, and they had not done many rebellious things.
These guys are really not beyond redemption yet, Mu Hanyan once again confirmed her previous judgment.
"How about this, my sword is broken, let's go to the market first to see if there is a suitable long sword to buy." Of course, Mu Hanyan couldn't take them to Zui Xiang Lou. Seeing that they were embarrassed, she changed the subject.
"Okay, okay. I'm very familiar with the market. Brother Hanyan, just choose whatever you like. No one dares to charge you a penny more." Mu Ze started showing off again.
"Well, thank you very much." Mu Hanyan was now skeptical about what they said, but of course, she would not say it out loud.
"We are brothers, why should we be polite?" Mu Ze patted his chest loudly.
"Isn't this Zexian? Where are you going so early?" Just as he reached the gate and was about to go out, a group of young people came towards him. The young man in the lead had a cold smile on his face and said to Mu Zexian.
"Good morning, Brother Chengyang. Let's go shopping in the market." Mu Ze forced a smile and replied.
"Good morning, Brother Chengyang. Good morning, Brother Chengyang." Mu Zeran and others also greeted him.
It can be seen that they are a little afraid of Mu Chengyang and his group. Just now they were so full of vigor and ambition that they acted as if they could do whatever they wanted in the whole capital, but now they are all timid and as obedient as rabbits.
"Do you have money to go to the market?" A young man behind Mu Chengyang said contemptuously.
"Don't buy something and not be able to pay for it when the time comes. You'll have to wait for your family to pick you up. Our Mu family can't afford to lose face like that." Another young man followed suit sarcastically.
"We're just going to take a look." Mu Zexian's face flushed red with shame, and there was some anger in his eyes, but he didn't dare to get angry.
"Instead of practicing well, you wander around all day causing trouble. How disgraceful!" Mu Chengyang snorted coldly and scolded mercilessly.
After being scolded by him, although Mu Zexian and others were indignant, no one dared to talk back.
Mu Hanyan frowned. Mu Chengyang, if he was right, was probably from Mu Chengxuan's family, a peer of Mu Zexian and the others. Yet, he acted like an elder, scolding Mu Zexian so harshly that he couldn't even lift his head. The Third Elder's family held considerable prestige within the Mu family.
"Brother Hanyan has just arrived in the capital. Let's take him to the market town for a stroll." Mu Zeran was still young and a bit stubborn. Although he was afraid of Mu Chengyang, he couldn't help but whispered.
"Mu Hanyan, Mu Hanyan from Black Stone City?" Mu Chengyang looked at Mu Hanyan in the crowd and asked puzzledly.
Mu Hanyan then noticed that this group of people looked exhausted and had probably just returned from training. Therefore, they didn't know that they had returned to the clan family, let alone that Mu Chengxuan had been defeated by them.
In fact, the Mu clan has strict rules and the third elder is extremely prestigious. Although some people saw the fight between Mu Hanyan and Mu Chengxuan yesterday, no one dared to spread it out. So let alone outsiders, even few people in the Mu family knew about this, not to mention that Mu Chengyang and others had just returned.
"It's me." Mu Hanyan nodded. Mu Chengyang had acted like a senior the moment they met, mocking and ordering his brothers around without mercy, which made her feel completely unimpressed.
"I was wondering why these losers were so happy. It turns out you're here. Well, I've heard that the eldest son of Black Stone City, Mu, is uneducated and does all kinds of evil things, bullying men and women. He's just the same kind of person as them." Mu Chengyang said bluntly.
"That's right, Mu the Prodigal, Mu the Playboy, Mu the Clothes Tearer, just listen to how resounding these names are. This bunch of losers has already ruined the Zong family's reputation, and with him added to the mix, it's probably going to be completely ruined."
"After causing trouble for the Mu family in Black Stone City, he has come to cause trouble for the Zong family now. I really don't know what the elders are thinking to let such a person return to the Zong family." Others also echoed.
Several servants happened to pass by. When they heard what they said, they looked at Mu Hanyan with strange eyes, then quickly went around her through the path nearby.
Mu Hanyan's face darkened.
Having been branded a playboy for two lifetimes, she deeply detested the title of Mu Rui'an, the prodigal son of a wealthy family. Back in Blackrock City, others, out of concern for Mu Rui'an, would only whisper about her in private, never daring to speak to her face. Even though the Great Elder had previously despised her, he still had to give her some face and not yell at her in front of the servants.
Now Mu Chengyang and the others were so brazen in front of the servants and in front of the whole hall. It was clearly a slap in the face. Not only was it a slap on his face, but also on his grandfather's face.
I just came back yesterday and Mu Chengxuan came to my house, and today it’s Mu Chengyang’s turn. Do the Third Elder and his family really think that I, Mu Hanyan, am easy to bully?
"Pa!" Mu Hanyan's eyes fixed, and she raised her hand, and a loud slap landed heavily on Mu Chengyang's face.
You want to slap me in the face with words? Fine, I’ll really slap you in the face!
There was dead silence all around, and everyone looked at Mu Hanyan in surprise. Even the servants who had already walked away couldn't help but stop and turn their heads to look.
He actually dared to take action!
No one expected that Mu Hanyan would dare to take action.
This was the main clan, not a branch clan. Because there were so many people and so many things to do, clan rules were much stricter. No matter who it was, no matter what conflict or dispute there was, according to the rules, it had to be mediated by the elders, or the elders of each clan had to discuss privately. No one should resort to violence rashly.
Even if negotiation fails and fighting is necessary, then we should fight slowly behind closed doors, or make a war agreement to exchange skills and not let outsiders see us laughing at us.
But Mu Hanyan not only did he do it, but he did it right at the gate, in front of the servants. Not only did the servants see it, but even passersby saw it. Others' slapping in the face was just talk, but this was a real slap in the face.
Mu Chengyang's group was completely stunned. In the past few years, they followed the brothers Mu Chengxuan and Mu Chengyang, relying on the prestige of the third elder, and did not take Mu Zexian and others seriously at all. They could curse and step on them as they pleased, and no one dared to talk back.
Who would have thought that Mu Hanyan, who had just returned to the Zong family and hadn't even warmed up her foothold yet, would actually dare to take action! And she was targeting Mu Chengxuan's younger brother, Mu Chengyang.
Huayue, Zirong, and Jiang Yuzhe exchanged glances. They knew the clan's strict rules, and they hadn't expected Mu Hanyan to suddenly attack.
Looking at the stunned servants around him and the surprised looks of the passersby outside, several people rolled their eyes. The young master hated the reputation of being a dandy, but his words and actions would only make the reputation of being a dandy more and more famous. However, this slap was really satisfying.
