Chapter 116 His Purpose
Mu Xiaobei watched the housekeeper of the old house walk directly in front of him, and his intuition... wasn't good.
"Uncle Zhang, are you looking for me?" Mu Xiaobei asked.
"The old lady hasn't seen Mr. Bei for a long time and misses him very much. Please come and see Mr. Bei." Uncle Zhang said with a smile, he was close and loving, and it really seemed like that.
Although Mu Xiaobei is young, he is smart and self-aware. This old lady in their family does not like anyone and only cares about the power in his hands.
If her little uncle hadn't been too powerful, she wouldn't have gotten close to anyone at all. The people she was recruiting now were just to restrain her little uncle.
As for her now looking for herself, her purpose is very clear.
She wanted to know about Xiao Mo's condition.
Mu Xiaobei smiled and said, "Uncle Zhang, I made an appointment with my parents for dinner. I'm very hungry, and I haven't seen my mother for a long time. Come with my parents after I finish dinner."
Uncle Zhang smiled a little deeper than before, "Master Bei, the old lady will just talk for a few minutes."
Mu Xiaobei thought to himself: He is indeed an old fox.
"Okay then, I'll put my bag down first." After Mu Xiaobei finished speaking, he strode into his house without waiting for Uncle Zhang's consent.
Of course, Uncle Zhang couldn't stop Mu Xiaobei. Although Mu Xiaobei called him Uncle Zhang, in fact he was just a hired servant of the Mu family.
Mu Xiaobei shouted at the top of his lungs as soon as he entered the door, "Mom, Mom."
Mu's mother, Xie Siyuan, heard the sound and stood up to greet her, "Xiao Bei is back, why is this child still losing weight?"
"I've lost weight, but I've definitely become stronger." Mu Xiaobei said with a smile, reaching out to hug Xie Siyuan's arm, "Mom, my great-grandmother wanted to see me, and she said it would only be a few minutes. If I don't show up in ten minutes, you
Just call me for dinner."
Xie Siyuan frowned slightly, wondering what kind of medicine the old lady was selling in the pot, "Be careful yourself."
"Yeah." Mu Xiaobei put down his bag and walked out in a few steps.
Uncle Zhang was still standing where he was just now, waiting for him, with a smile on his face, "Master Bei, please."
Mu Xiaobei nodded and followed Uncle Zhang into the old house, all the way into the front hall.
"Great-grandmother, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you?" Mu Xiaobei saw Mrs. Mu and asked with a smile.
"Very good, Xiaobei, come sit here. Great-grandmother hasn't seen you for a long time. You've grown taller." Mrs. Mu turned her eyes around Mu Xiaobei and said lovingly.
Mu Xiaobei smiled and sat down. Of course he would not take the initiative to fall into Mrs. Mu's trap and just said the words on the surface with a smile.
"Xiaobei, do you have a good relationship with your little aunt?" Mrs. Mu would not let Mu Xiaobei lead her. If he refused to say it directly, she would ask directly.
Mu Xiaobei paused slightly, "It's okay."
"It was you who introduced her to your uncle." Mrs. Mu continued. Mrs. Mu naturally found out that Mu Nanjin and Bai Xiaomo came out of the hotel one after another.
Before that, Mu Xiaobei opened a room for Bai Xiaomo, and Mu Xiaobei also gave him the room card.
Mu Xiaobei didn't know how to respond to Mrs. Mu's words for a while...
Mrs. Mu looked at Mu Xiaobei. She had always been aloof. Except for Mu Nanjin who didn't give her face, everyone else behaved in front of her. Mu Xiaobei would not answer her question, which made her feel very unhappy.
.
Mrs. Mu's face darkened, "Xiao Bei, great-grandmother is asking you something, please answer."
"Ah, great-grandmother, of course not. How could I have the courage to do such a thing." Mu Xiaobei said, "I don't know anything."
"Don't you know that it was all you..." Before Mrs. Mu could finish her words, footsteps sounded outside the door.
"Grandma, have you eaten?" Xie Siyuan and Mu Zhi walked in side by side.
Mrs. Mu frowned slightly, and her eyes towards the two of them were far from friendly, "Why, are you still afraid that I will eat your son? Come together as husband and wife."
Mu Zhi looked at Mu Xiaobei, who had jumped up from his seat, "Dad, I'm so hungry that my stomach hurts."
Mu Xiaobei's voice was aggrieved, and he pressed his stomach in a decent manner.
Mrs. Mu almost rolled her eyes.
Xie Siyuan stepped forward and didn't mind Mrs. Mu's attitude at all. She said softly, "Grandma, Xiaobei is a naughty child. We, the couple, are worried that he will make you unhappy, so we came here to have a look and take the child back for dinner."
Mrs. Mu raised her hand, and the maid beside her stepped forward to help her.
"Then why don't you go back?" After saying this, Mrs. Mu strode inside and said, "Mu Zhi, come in with me."
Mu Xiaobei looked at Mu Zhi sympathetically, "Dad..."
"Yes, grandma." Mu Zhi responded, raising his hand and patting Mu Xiaobei's shoulder, "You and mom go back first, I'll be back in a minute."
"Okay, be careful." Mu Xiaobei warned silently.
Mu Zhi nodded and followed Madam Mu towards the inner courtyard.
Xie Siyuan took Mu Xiaobei back home first.
"Mom, is my dad really okay?" Mu Xiaobei said.
"Don't worry, your dad has more experience in fighting." Xie Siyuan comforted her gently. She looked at Mu Xiaobei gently, reached out and pinched his face, "Aren't you hungry? Come here and have some snacks first."
"Okay, thank you, Mom." Mu Xiaobei smiled and followed his mother to eat. He felt that he had just remembered something, but he seemed to have forgotten something...
At this time, Mu Zhi and Mrs. Mu were standing opposite each other in the courtyard, and the servants around them were far away.
"You have raised a good son, but at such a young age, he dares to be disrespectful to his elders." Mrs. Mu said coldly.
"Grandma, Xiaobei is still a child, so don't worry about it." Mu Zhi said quietly, not taking Mrs. Mu's anger into consideration at all.
He looked completely different from the friendly and gentle look he had just now.
"Mu Zhi, what's going on with Mu Nanjin and Bai Xiaomo?" Mrs. Mu asked.
"Nan Jin is young and promising, Bai Xiaomo is young and beautiful, that's what happens between the two of them. Gan Chai Lie..." Mu Zhi hadn't finished speaking.
The crutch in Mrs. Mu's hand hit the ground heavily.
"Mu Zhi, are you now that your wings have become stiff and you don't take me seriously anymore? Don't forget that it was me who helped you up. If I can let you go up, I can let you down!"
Mu Zhi chuckled softly, "Does grandma think she can get back the things she gave away?"
Mrs. Mu's face suddenly changed, and she pointed at Mu Zhi with one hand, "You! You! You wolf bastard!"
Mu Zhi smiled indifferently and maintained an elegant posture, "Grandma, you just need to know that our goals are the same. At your age, wouldn't it be nice to enjoy your old age in peace? I will give you what you deserve, but if
You are trying to do something."
