Chapter 726 - 727 - Su"erHe seemed to be an outstanding little errand boy.
Standing to the side, the Manor Lord was very curious as to where this child had come from.
However, even though he was curious, he was not able to ask about the matters of his master.
Then, he placed the list in his hands in front of Mu Jin: "This is the cost of spending in the villa for the next two years!"
Mu Jin picked up the list and looked at it, while the Su"er did not forget to miss this chance. Although she did not recognize many of the words, she understood the most important amount of money!
He didn"t expect that the cost of a single year would reach over ten million taels of silver in this c.r.a.ppy manor.
Mu Jin held up the brush that was unique to Huizhou, dipped it in the brush, and signed his name on the list.
He was vigorous and powerful, as sharp as a dagger. It was as if he could pierce through this piece of paper.
Even though Mu Jin wrote something, she still could not understand. The first character was rather unrestrained, and among all the words that she knew, there was not a single one that looked similar.
But that was not the most important thing, the most important thing was that as long as Mu Jin could sign it, he could receive over ten million silver taels.
Heavens, this was too amazing in her young worldview. She suddenly felt that all these years she had lived in vain.
Her mother worked so hard every day to do surgery and research on medicine, but she still couldn"t earn that much money a year.
But with so much money, Mu Jin only needed to slightly write a name to have it.
She couldn"t take it anymore. She was going to do something bad.
"Young master, do you want some water? I"ll get you some water! " Seeing that the manor lord had taken the list out, Su"er immediately found a reason to go out.
She wanted to see where the manor lord was going to exchange the list for silver.
Mu Jin looked at the empty cup and nodded.
He thought that Su"er was using the teapot to pour water for him, so he intentionally moved the blanket in his hands towards the middle.
In the end, Su"er carried the teapot and ran out. It was fine if there was no water on the teapot, but there was still half a pot of water on the teapot.
When she went out with the teapot, the water spilled from the spout of the teapot.
This girl was probably greedy for wealth again.
"Nong Yue, follow her out!" Mu Jin"s tone was full of helplessness.
Then, he smiled and said to Han Yue: "Is there any news from the Southern Mountain State Emperor?"
"No, once we enter the Southern Mountain State, we will definitely be followed by people. However, other than when we first entered the city, this subordinate did not find anyone else monitoring us from the shadows!" Han Yue also felt this was a little strange.
Regardless of whether someone was following them or not, it was all within Mu Jin"s expectations.
Mu Zhi, this cousin of his who he had only heard of before, was someone whose ident.i.ty was low enough to not be loved by his father, and even hated by his father. Being the new emperor of the Southern Mountain State proved that his strength was not to be underestimated.
Not only did he have the ability, but he also had extremely good luck.
If Mu Zhi had not been sent by his father to become a prince in a remote and barren land of the Southern Mountain State and instead stayed in the Imperial Palace, then not to mention becoming the emperor, even living or not would have been a problem.
"Then let"s enter the capital tonight!" Mu Jin squinted his eyes, a glimmer of light shining in his pitch-black eyes.
"But Mistress, we"ve been hurrying on our journey for the past few days. Why don"t we take a break and leave tomorrow?" Han Yue was a little confused. There was no need to be in such a rush to reach the capital, was there?
Mu Jin smiled charmingly, and looked outside the door. "The first time was from the moment we entered the Southern Mountain State, the emperor should have sent someone over, but until now, there hasn"t been a single person sent over by the Battalion Emperor. This is extremely inconsistent with the emperor"s previous zealous att.i.tude in inviting me over to the Southern Mountain State! This means that the Southern Mountain State"s Emperor must have met with some sort of accident! "
"Secondly, I have to send that little girl to the Yu Building as soon as possible!"
"Master wants to send the little girl away? This subordinate likes that little girl very much when I see master! " Han Yue could understand the first point, but he could not understand the second point.
"If I"m not wrong, the reason why she left the manor just now was to find out where the manor lord can withdraw the money from!" Mu Jin narrowed her deep eyes. "So that"s why I really want to know who this child"s mother is. How exactly did she teach such a clever and greedy child!"
He didn"t mean to send the girl away!
It seems like he had been following his master for a long time. It seems like his master was interested in a woman, right?
Although this woman had already married someone else to become their mother, as long as their master could have a new liking for women, that would still be good enough.
"Then when this little girl sees her mother, will master really return the child?" Han Yue asked.
After all, this was the only child that his master could get close to!
"The child belongs to someone else after all, so of course I have to return him to someone else. The Clear Ming Pavilion is not the Heavenly Demon Pavilion it used to be!" So what if he liked this child? After all, it wasn"t his.
Han Yue did not say anything. If Master really wanted to keep this child, he could do some things in secret so that the child"s mother would not be able to find his child. Then Master would keep this child by his side.
It was also good to be with his master in the future.
He had been by his master"s side for the past few years, and he truly felt that his master was very lonely.
It was as if he was alone deep in an endless dark abyss. No one spoke, and no one could tell anyone.
Other than taking care of the matter at the teahouse, Master had also locked himself in his study. He drew pictures of Wei Yuanwei one by one, depicting every scene after they met each other.
In the span of five years, the number of paintings in the room had increased to almost an entire room.
It was a loneliness that no one could enter into the master"s heart, and the master was unwilling to walk out.
He would rather shut himself in a lonely door and not let anyone near him.
It wasn"t easy to meet such a child that master wanted to get close to. It was enough to ease some of the master"s loneliness, but the master wanted to send the child away!
Oh yeah, Xuan Li wrote to me a few days ago, and Meiyu was pregnant with a child. According to the date, she should be born soon, go and prepare some gifts for her to be sent over! When Mu Jin said Xuan Li, the expression on his face softened a little.
As his personal bodyguard, Xuan Li naturally had to leave as well. This was because Mu Jin was already dead, and no longer existed in this world, so naturally, the person who was once Mu Jin"s bodyguard should not appear by his side.
He wouldn"t let anyone find any trace of him alive.
"Yes, your subordinate will prepare it!" Han Yue lowered his head and said respectfully.
After the time it takes to burn an incense stick to burn had pa.s.sed, Su"er carried the teapot that was filled with water and walked in with some difficulty. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Mu Jin staring at him and took out the explanation she had prepared: "Young Master, this manor is so big, Su"er is lost!"
