Mu Huan never imagined that Lao Mu decided to buy such a house for her! She always thought Lao Mu was unreliable because he was always stingy when she asked him for money. But she never thought that Lao Mu would spend so much money to buy such a big house for her!
"It must have cost Lao Mu a lot of money!" It was not easy for Lao Mu to hide his money, and now he bought such a big house, so all his savings must have been spent.
How to say it? Si Xue found it difficult to speak.
"Actually, it didn't cost much." I only spent a few hundred taels and got it.
"How could such a big house not cost any money?" Mu Huan didn't believe it. It must be that Old Mu bought it without his mother's knowledge in order to prevent her from knowing that he had hidden a large amount of private money, and then he deliberately said a very small number.
"It really didn't cost much, just a few hundred taels of silver, and I got the title deed to that house." Logically speaking, a house that large would cost thousands or even tens of thousands of taels. But the design of the house was problematic, and the seller was eager to sell it, so they agreed to a few hundred taels to get it done.
"!!!" Are you kidding me?!
"Mom, are you sure you're not kidding me?"
"Why would I lie to you about something like this?" Si Xue looked at Mu Huan sincerely, with her eyes wide open, just to make Mu Huan believe it!
At first, Mu Huan thought her mother was afraid she would feel uncomfortable, since she had bought the house for her, so she deliberately said a few hundred taels. But seeing her mother's sincere expression, Mu Huan had to believe it. Si Xue was a hot-tempered and straightforward person, and she didn't like lying at all.
So Lao Mu must have been really lucky, as he was able to buy such a big house for just a few hundred taels.
"By the way, Ah Huan, why did you suddenly think of coming home to visit this time? Isn't there a four-nation academy competition being held recently? Is it really okay for you to come back so suddenly?" Si Xue was afraid that the child would neglect important matters in order to come back to see them, and then someone would gossip about them behind their backs, which would be really uncomfortable.
"Mom, I've awakened my thunder spirit roots. Now I can openly cultivate my thunder-attributed spiritual power." When she was little, she always found it so exciting to watch her mother strike people with lightning. But back then, her thunder-attributed spiritual power cultivation often resulted in inexplicable health problems, or she would suddenly lose control of her temper. So, at that time, she stopped cultivating her thunder-attributed spiritual power.
Si Xue stood up suddenly with a serious look on her face. She put the child down on Mu Hu's own crib, then closed the doors and windows tightly.
"Mom, what are you doing?" Why do I feel like I'm afraid of everything?
"Ah Huan! Mother is asking you now, is there anyone else who knows that you can now cultivate thunder attribute spiritual power?" This question is very important!
"No, it was just me. However, on my way here, I met a person from the upper realm. He discovered that I could cultivate thunder spiritual power, but I killed him in the end." Although I didn't know why my mother was so anxious, it was right to answer honestly. After all, my mother would not harm me!
"That's good!" Si Xue breathed a sigh of relief.
"You said that you met someone from the upper realm?" That group of people really refused to give up and even now they are still thinking about merging with the human race and annexing the entire lower realm!
"They must have followed someone's orders to come and pick a fight with me, but I drove away the first wave of people and picked up their tokens. Then another person came the second time, probably wanting to kill me to silence me, but I managed to outmaneuver him and kill him." Mu Huan was quite happy when he talked about this, as he had taught a lesson to a cancer of the human race.
"As long as you're safe!" We must not let them discover Ah Huan's existence, otherwise...
"After your brother's full moon banquet today, mother will teach you how to truly enter the cultivation of lightning spiritual power."
I had thought those people from the upper realm would at least wait until the contract ended before taking action, but I didn't expect them to be so impatient now. I absolutely couldn't let them discover Ah Huan's existence, so I had to force Ah Huan to improve his strength so that even if he was discovered, he would have some ability to protect himself.
"Okay, I'll listen to you, Mother!" Although she always felt that her mother and Old Mu were hiding something from her, they were definitely not telling her for her own good. One day, when her strength was no longer intimidating, she would be able to know the truth that they had been hiding.
Mu Yuntian had strong organizational skills. He managed to organize a full-moon banquet with great fanfare, receiving gifts from many prominent families. That night, when Mu Yuntian was alone in the warehouse counting the gifts, his mouth never closed, and he kept laughing like a fool.
Mu Huan couldn't bear to watch it any longer and snatched the account book from Mu Yuntian's hand. She wanted to see how much Old Mu had collected, which was why she was laughing like that. Who knows, you wouldn't know until you see it, it's really shocking. It was so densely packed with all kinds of rare and precious items, it seemed that Old Mu had done quite well these years!
"Alright, Lao Mu, your ability to make money is getting stronger and stronger."
"That's it!" Mu Yuntian puffed out his chest proudly. Why does it feel like something is wrong?
"What do you mean by swindling money?" How could he say that? He had clearly earned these gifts by using his own personal charm. If he hadn't gotten along well with those old guys over the years, they wouldn't have been willing to give him such precious things.
