Chapter 430 Male Favorite
Mu Yufeng slept until noon the next day before slowly waking up.
After waking up, I looked at the layout of the room and felt a little confused, not knowing what day it was.
Seeing Mu Yufeng open his eyes, Dalin was excited and asked repeatedly: "Master, are you awake? Are you feeling unwell?"
The sunlight outside shone in through the window. Mu Yufeng squinted his eyes and asked, "Why am I here?"
Dalin said, "You got drunk in the tavern yesterday and slept for almost twelve hours. I was scared to death. Fortunately, you woke up. If you hadn't woken up, I would have called a doctor."
Although he knew some medical skills, he was not very proficient and he was afraid that his diagnosis would be wrong.
Mu Yufeng rubbed his temples, and yesterday's memories slowly returned. A flicker of regret flashed across his eyes. "How could I have gotten drunk? What about Lu Zhixi?"
"Master, you're already drunk, so I can only send you back. But don't worry, although you didn't run into her yesterday, I have someone keeping an eye on her. I heard she's very fond of business and often moves around in various workshops and shops. If you want to start with her, it shouldn't be difficult."
Dalin said as he helped Mu Yufeng sit up and said, "Master, I asked someone to prepare some hangover soup. I'll have it brought to you right away."
Mu Yufeng waved his hand, "No need, send someone to report the news."
Dalin advised, "Master, drink some hangover soup! You've never been drunk before, so you don't know how uncomfortable a hangover is."
Mu Yufeng carefully felt the sensations of his body and said thoughtfully, "I don't feel any discomfort."
Not only did I not feel the physical discomfort that people often feel after a hangover, but I felt as if all the fatigue that had accumulated in my body for a long time was swept away, and I felt more energetic than ever before.
His eyes were gloomy. Could it be because of the wine?
He ordered, "Go and find out who owns that tavern. What's the difference between Shenxianzui and other drinks?"
"Yes!" Dalin turned and walked a few steps, then remembered that the money he brought with him on this trip was almost all gone. He quickly turned around and reminded, "Master, I came back yesterday and carefully counted the silver in the account. There is no more than one thousand taels. If we don't find a solution quickly, I'm afraid we will have to sell our things, or even our house."
Mu Yufeng suddenly had a headache. "You go down and make the arrangements first. I'll think about the money later."
He had brought so much money with him that he thought it would be enough to last him a year or two.
But he never expected that the prices in Lingnan would be so high, and there would be so many rare and exotic things. He couldn't control himself for a moment...
A financial crisis arose so quickly.
But he was reluctant to sell either the house or the things he bought after coming to Lingnan.
Mu Yufeng had to think about how to make money.
Soon, Dalin came running back, "Master, Xiaolu came back with a message. He said he saw Lu Zhixi taking people to the industrial park on the outskirts of the city today."
Mu Yufeng changed his clothes and said, "Let's go to the industrial park today."
At the same time, the people sent by Wen Jianjia were reporting Lu Zhixi's whereabouts to her.
After listening to the report from her subordinates, Wen Jianjia frowned. "What did you say? Did she go to the industrial park with that girl from yesterday?"
She clearly said those words in front of her yesterday, but she didn't go to find her cousin.
This means he doesn't take her seriously and looks down on her completely!
A flash of resentment flashed across Wen Jianjia's eyes. But when she remembered where she was, she became cheerful again. "Mother, there's a very remote section of the road coming back from the outskirts of the city. We can station people there!"
"No!" Changsun rejected her daughter's proposal outright, "It's too risky."
"What should we do? If we wait any longer, she'll marry my cousin. Then she'll become the mistress of the household and take back your stewardship. There'll be no place for the two of us."
Wen Jianjia felt that things should be done sooner rather than later, as too many unexpected events would occur if they were delayed any further.
Changsun pondered for a moment, and finally listened to her daughter.
She looked at Xiaolian and said, "Keep watching, be careful, don't reveal any traces."
Xiaolian was the person they brought from the capital. Xiaolian and her husband made a lot of efforts to ensure that the mother and daughter could successfully come to Lingnan to seek refuge with Xie Xin.
But even so, Changsun was still worried. She looked at him fiercely and said, "You must know that only when we are well can you and your husband survive. If we are in trouble, there will be no place for you in this world."
Xiaolian knelt on the ground, "Don't worry, Madam. I know. We will definitely complete your instructions carefully."
Chang Sun waved her hand in a somewhat confused manner and said, "Alright, go ahead!"
Watching Xiaolian leave, Wen Jianjia walked around the room excitedly.
As long as Lu Zhixi ruins his reputation and cancels the engagement with his cousin, she can marry him.
Little did she know that her supposedly secret tracking had already been noticed by Lu Zhixi.
Xiaolian and her husband are just ordinary people. After Lu Jingcheng got into trouble, Lu Shiyan arranged secret guards for Lu Zhixi, Su Shi and others.
When Xiaolian and her husband were following Lu Zhixi, the secret guards noticed them immediately. However, after finding out that they were just following, they did not arrest them. Instead, they informed Lu Zhixi of their situation and waited for her decision.
Lu Zhixi did not punish the two men, but instead asked the secret guards to track them and find out their identities.
When Xiaolian went back to report Lu Zhixi's situation to Wen Jianjia, the secret guard also returned and reported the situation to Lu Zhixi.
Hearing that the person who was following him had gone to the General's Mansion, Lu Zhixi sneered, "It really was her."
When Jiang Tangtang heard that the person who was following her went to General Xie's residence, she guessed the identity of the person behind the scenes just like Lu Zhixi.
She looked at Lu Zhixi and said, "Are you really not going to ask General Xie to come over and talk?"
She felt that if there was a misunderstanding, it should be resolved. If Xie Xin and her cousin were unclear, then she should cut the Gordian knot and get rid of this man.
It’s hard to find a three-legged frog in this world, but two-legged men are everywhere!
What's more, with Lu Zhixi's current status, what's wrong with her not getting married and becoming a princess with a mistress?
With their support, who would dare to say anything bad about her?
There's really no need to drag things out.
Jiang Tangtang thought so in her heart and said so to Lu Zhixi.
Lu Zhixi knew that her sister-in-law was different from ordinary people, but this was the first time she heard such remarks.
She was terrified. "Sister-in-law, what if it was Big Brother... Of course, I know Big Brother isn't that kind of person. But Big Brother's status is different now, isn't it? I'm talking about hypothetical situations! Suppose a beautiful woman throws herself at Big Brother, what will you do?"
Jiang Tangtang said, "It depends on his attitude."
Lu Zhixi said cautiously: "What if, by accident, I'm assuming, what if Big Brother accidentally had something happen with that beauty?"
Jiang Tangtang said as a matter of course: "It's all dirty, so I definitely can't keep him! Such a dirty man who doesn't keep himself clean, of course I have to kick him out and keep a bunch of male concubines!"
As soon as Lu Shiyan came in, he heard this deafening declaration of a male favorite, and his handsome face suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
