Chapter 486: Chapter 487: Eyebrows and Eyes Resemble Old Mu
"Her? What about her?"
"Don’t you think she actually resembles Old Mu a bit around her eyes and eyebrows?"
Yang Chuxia carefully thought about the little girl from her last visit, those eyes, that nose, and indeed, she did bear some resemblance to Old Mu.
"What’s their relationship?" Yang Chuxia asked with curiosity.
Ye Zi’an thought for a moment and said, "They must be relatives. The question is, how are they related? Father and daughter? Uncle and niece? Or something else?"
"So you’re saying Old Mu must also be an extraordinary person, which we’ve actually confirmed before. Now, the only thing we can confirm is that Mu Shaoling knows Old Mu and is quite familiar with him." Yang Chuxia’s thoughts flowed, unstoppable, "And the fact that Old Mu ended up here means something must have happened to him. But since Mu Shaoling found Old Mu and didn’t take him back to Capital City, it shows that the matter with Old Mu is not trivial. So, in conclusion, we may have gotten ourselves into big trouble?"
One, two, three, three, two... after deducing step by step, Yang Chuxia thought she had uncovered the truth.
"Brother An, is it too late for us to kick Old Mu and Mu Shaoling out now?"
"It’s too late," Ye Zi’an said, "Let’s pretend we don’t know for now."
"Didn’t Mu Shaoling say he came to find a woman? How did it become Old Mu?"
"Who said he only came here to find one person?"
Yang Chuxia nodded in agreement, "That’s true."
"So, are we going to the town now?" Yang Chuxia held the silver note in her hand and asked again. The jade hairpin she had mentioned seeing in the town earlier was real.
It actually cost one hundred taels. She had originally planned to buy it herself, but she hadn’t expected Mu Shaoling to be so generous, giving her an extra two hundred taels.
She wouldn’t bother being polite with Mu Shaoling now. Old Mu and he must have a strong relationship; otherwise, would he have brought Old Mu’s daughter or niece along with him?
He hadn’t taken Old Mu away yet, causing their family so much risk. Taking his silver now was only fair.
"You won’t be able to go now!" Ye Zi’an pointed in the distance, to an approaching oxcart.
Yang Chuxia followed his gaze, and surprisingly, the people from her grandmother’s side were coming. Her grandmother, Ms. Liu of the Wang Family, was leading her second son, as well as her grandson and granddaughter, Wang Yunlian and Qian Xiaoqing.
Seeing her grandmother and the others, Yang Chuxia felt quite happy. However, her mood dampened when she saw Qian Xiaoqing.
"Brother An, why does Qian Xiaoqing always show up? She’s so annoying." Yang Chuxia complained to Ye Zi’an.
Not only did Ye Zi’an despise Qian Xiaoqing, but he also wanted to avoid her as much as possible.
If Yang Lichun disgusted him, Qian Xiaoqing made him want to run away as far as possible.
"Grandma, Uncle, Cousin, Cousin sister!" As the oxcart arrived, Yang Chuxia greeted them warmly, intentionally not mentioning Qian Xiaoqing.
"Xiaxia!" Ms. Liu of the Wang Family got down from the oxcart and hugged Yang Chuxia, "You’ve grown taller after several months of not seeing you."
"Really?" Yang Chuxia said happily, "My mom says I haven’t grown at all."
"You have, you have," Ms. Liu of the Wang Family assured her, laughing.
"Come on, let’s all go inside!" Yang Chuxia brought everyone into the house. However, upon entering, they found that Mu Shaoling and his servants were not yet gone, sitting in their chairs drinking tea.
Seeing Yang Chuxia bringing in another group of people, Mu Shaoling raised his eyebrows but remained silent.
Ms. Liu of the Wang Family was curious about the handsome stranger in her granddaughter’s house.
But it seemed that Yang Chuxia had no intention of introducing him, "Grandma, Uncle, Cousin, Cousin sister, please take a seat."
