After receiving Uncle Zhong's tacit approval, the two guards were extremely excited. Their big eyes sparkled like the brightest stars in the night sky, but...they were glittering with calculations.
Uncle Zhong looked at the two guards who were instantly excited, and their eyes flashing with evil amusement, and felt a little worried. He wondered if these two brothers would ruin him...
Uncle Zhong thought about it and felt that his worries might become a reality, so he lowered his voice and reminded the two guards: "Don't go too far! The master still needs to see them later!"
The two guards nodded and answered in unison: "Got it, we will be careful!" After that, they looked at each other and smiled, their smiles were extremely cunning!
Seeing the calculating look in the two men's eyes, Uncle Zhong shook his head and walked away. The Murong family wasn't a pushover either. He hoped nothing would happen...
But it doesn't matter what happens, it's none of his business anyway. He did remind the two guards...
In fact, secretly, Uncle Zhong also hoped that the Murong family would learn a lesson. He had followed Grandpa An since he was young, and later when Grandpa An passed away, he still chose to stay in the An family.
It could be said that he had watched almost all of the An family grow up, especially An Ran, who had been cute and well-behaved since she was little, beautiful and kind, following him around all day, calling him "Grandpa Zhong" all the time. She was practically no different from his own granddaughter! How dare Murong Jin disdain An Ran! And insult the An family!
Xinghu City is now the territory of the An family. No matter how powerful the Murong family is, they can't reach Xinghu City. Besides, haven't you heard the saying "a strong dragon can't suppress a local snake"? You've offended the An family and yet you dare to come to their territory. Aren't you looking for trouble?
After Uncle Zhong left, the entire yard was almost left to the two guards.
In the room, Grandpa Murong and Murong Jin sat waiting for An Changcheng to come. They waited left and right but An Changcheng still didn't come.
Murong Jin was getting a little impatient as An Changcheng still didn't come over. In the huge house, there were only Old Man Murong, Murong Jin, Uncle Sun and two guards from the Murong family. It could be said that since they entered the house, except for Uncle Zhong, they had hardly seen anyone from the An family!
Murong Jin really couldn't go down. He looked at Old Man Murong, who was still resting with his eyes closed, and said anxiously, "Grandpa! What does he mean by settling down here? We've been waiting for so long, and he still hasn't come?!"
Without even opening his eyes, Mr. Murong said calmly, "Jin'er, be patient. He will come out eventually."
Murong Jin felt even more frustrated as he listened to Mr. Murong's calm words. He casually picked up the teacup on the table and discovered it was empty! There was no water in it!
Murong Jin has been suppressed by Old Man Murong these past few days. He already had many dissatisfactions in his heart, and coupled with the An family's contemptuous attitude, the anger that had been suppressed in Murong Jin's heart for a long time finally burst out!
"Grandpa! What does he mean by settling down here? We've been here for so long, and we haven't even had a cup of tea! Could it be that after falling into decline, he doesn't even know how to entertain guests?!"
Old Master Murong felt Murong Jinru's tangible anger and sighed softly in his heart. The An family still blames us a little...
He slowly opened his eyes, looked at the furious Murong Jin, and said in a slightly blaming tone, "Sit down! It was our Murong family who wronged the An family first, you have to endure it!"
Murong Jin heard the reproach in Mr. Murong's words. He sat back depressed and angrily put the cup heavily on the table!
The two guards at the door heard the commotion inside and were filled with resentment. "I just wanted you to experience being ignored, but you dared to say the An family doesn't know how to entertain guests?! Fine! Then I'll let you experience the An family's true hospitality!"
Guard A showed an evil smile, called a maid over, whispered something to her, and let the maid go down.
After a while, the maid came over with two cups of tea. Guard A winked at her and whispered, "Remember not to bring the wrong cup!"
The maid nodded in understanding, smiled at Guard A, and walked in.
After the maid walked into the room, she gently picked up the cup of tea on her left hand and placed it on Mr. Murong's table.
Then, he walked gently to Murong Jin and placed the remaining cup of tea on the table next to Murong Jin.
Murong Jin was feeling irritated when he saw the maid bringing tea over. He couldn't help but sarcastically say, "It's so hard to get a cup of tea from your An family! Do you have to fetch water from outside the city?"
In the vast continent, only the poorest families would carry water to drink. Those with a little bit of wealth would buy water from outside and store it in water tanks for future use. Some prominent families even had several wells at home and did not need to carry water at all. A large family like the An family, which had been passed down for thousands of years, had countless wells at home, even for the servants to drink!
Murong Jin's words directly compared the An family to those of the poorest families at the bottom of society, expressing his disdain for the An family to the extreme! It was simply rude!
When Mr. Murong heard Murong Jin's rude words, he frowned. This grandson really gave him a lot of worry. He was getting worse and worse as he grew older!
"Nonsense! The An family has been passed down for thousands of years and is the largest family in Xinghu City. How can we compare them with those poor families?"
Murong Jin was speechless after being scolded by Old Man Murong. He was so angry that he had no place to vent his anger, and he couldn't vent his anger in front of Old Man Murong. He picked up the tea in annoyance, wanting to drink some tea to suppress the anger in his heart!
"puff!"
The tea that Murong Jin had just taken a sip of was spat out by him. He held the cup of tea and looked at the maid, his eyes filled with anger!
"What kind of tea is this? Is this the only kind of rotten tea you use to entertain guests? It's not even as good as what my servants drink! Go get your master!"
The maid looked at the anger hidden in Murong Jin's eyes, feeling a little smug in her heart that her evil plan had succeeded, but her face remained calm and she said neither servilely nor arrogantly, "Master Murong, my master is busy with something important. He will come over when he is done!"
Listening to Murong Jin's angry questions, Old Master Murong felt annoyed. Why is this grandson becoming more and more impatient? Where is his previous patience and perseverance? Waiting a little longer is no big deal. Yelling at a maid is really unbecoming!
Old Master Murong was unable to educate his grandson in front of outsiders, so he suppressed his anger and gave Murong Jin a beating!
