Chapter 51 Lunch at the Mou House

The woman leading the way was taken aback, and after seeing who it was, she immediately smiled,

"Oh! Brother Long, where are you going? How did you get our Wenyu Academy to come?"

But it was Mou Biao's personal servant, Mou Long. Mou Long looked at Jia Silian and said to the woman,
"I took this person away..."

Oops, my mother-in-law blocked the way,

"Brother Long, you can't force it. Outsiders are not allowed to walk around in this house. If you bump into any young master or miss, this old slave can't afford it!"

Mou Long replied with a straight face,
"Don't worry, I took the person away, and I will take care of things..."

He told her again,

"You are not allowed to tell anyone about this matter, even the young miss. If the news leaks out, our Eighth Young Master will not spare you!"

The old woman's face changed when she heard this, and she covered her mouth with a smile,

"Don't say it! Don't say it! The old servant must keep his mouth shut!"

Mou Long nodded and led Jia Silian away. After turning the corner and the woman was no longer seen, he turned his head and whispered to her,

"Miss Silian, why did you come out at this time?"

The eighth young master of their family was waiting for lunch in the yard. He was so hungry that he dropped two teapots in anger. Mou Hu advised the young master to eat without waiting, but was slapped on the forehead by the young master.

"Master, if I invite someone to dinner, if the guests don't arrive, I will eat first at home. Have you given all the etiquette I taught you to the dog?"

Mou Biao sent the steady and reliable Mou Long to the eldest sister's yard to inquire about news. Mou Long stayed outside for a long time, and then saw Si Lian come out, so he hurriedly took her to the front of Mou Biao's yard. Caringly pointed out the introduction of various courtyards for Jia Silian,
"This is the backyard of our mansion. All the ladies who live there. Our master is the commander of Jin Yiwei. There are seven young masters and six young ladies in the family. The one you met just now is the eldest lady... This place...is The second lady's yard, she is the first daughter..."

He led Jia Silian through a huge garden and through a moon gate. In front of him was a small lake with a small boat tied to a willow tree by the lake. After opening the moon gate, I went to another garden...

Jia Silian followed Mou Long and gradually became less restrained, so she raised her head and looked around, Mou Long said,
"This is the yard where the young masters live..."

He pointed to a nearby path,
"Over there are Yinzhu, Changshu, and Liuguang Courtyard, where the Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master and Third Young Master live..."

Pointed to another path,
"Over there are Fourth Young Master, Sixth Young Master and Seventh Young Master..."

After a pause,

"The fifth young master of our family died when he was young, or there would be eight young masters in the family..."

"Then... which courtyard does Mr. Mou live in?"

Jia Silian asked curiously, Mou Long pointed to the path ahead,

"Master Mou is the youngest in our family, ranking eighth, and lives in the Xiulan Courtyard in front..."

As he said, he led Jia Silian all the way, and when he reached the end, he saw Mou Hu standing on tiptoe in front of the courtyard gate with the word Xiulan on it, stretching his neck and looking around, he was overjoyed to see the two of them coming over.

"It's coming!"

She rushed over and led Jia Silian in. Knowing that this was Mou Biao's yard, Jia Silian opened her eyes, walked slowly, and looked around. This yard was at least three times older than Missy's, but The yard is very simple. There is a large yard in front, paved with blue bricks, nothing is planted, only a weapon rack is placed at the east corner, and knives, guns and other things are placed on it.

"Silian, come here..."

Mou Biao stood on the third step of the main room, beckoning to Jia Silian, Jia Silian hurriedly came to salute,

"Son..."

Mou Biao waved his hand and said,
"Don't call me son, you said we are friends, and you call me Xiaolin..."

After thinking about it, I felt that it was too elegant and formal, so I said,

"...Or you can call me Old Ba..."

Brothers Mou Long and Mou Hu looked at each other after hearing this, and thought to themselves,

"Old Ba... only family members can call me this!"

The young master is too close to Jia Silian, right?

Mou Hu had big eyes but didn't think much about it, but Mou Long thought to himself,

"Young Master, it's not like Jia Silian has taken a fancy to him, has he?"

The young master's age is not too old, but he is not too young. He is also a little enlightened about men and women. He doesn't mean he wants to take Jia Silian as his concubine?

Two brothers, Mou Long and Mou Hu, grew up with Mou Biao. Mou Hu was two years older than Mou Biao, and Mou Long was three years older than Mou Biao. Biao walked very close to Ni Dongchu and Wen Zifeng, both of them started eating meat early, and when they had nothing to do, they urged Mou Biao to play in the flower building. Naturally, Mou Long and Mou Hu also learned a lot.

Thinking of this place where Mou Long looked up and down Jia Silian without any trace, Jia Silian was born thin and small, her body shriveled like a yellowed leek leaf with no roots,

"Such a little girl, any sweeping girl in our house is better than her..."

The young master's eyesight is too bad!

But Mou Biao didn't care about how his servant despised him, so he beckoned Jia Silian to come over.
"Why did you come, I'm almost hungry!"'

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Jia Silian to respond, she continued,
"Did Mou Xiumei treat you to dinner?"

Jia Silian shook her head, nodded again, and stretched out her hand to show him the copper plate in her palm,
"Missy gave me a copper coin and asked me to go outside to eat a bowl of noodles..."

"laugh……"

Mou Biao was greatly disdainful when he heard the words,

"Mou Xiumei is really stingy, just a few copper coins, and you're sending off beggars!"

Jia Silian didn't say anything, but secretly said in her heart,

"Although Sister Ling doesn't think I'm a beggar, but... she doesn't think much of me..."

But this is not to blame for Mou Xiumei, there is a difference in respect and inferiority, so it is natural for a master to look down on poor people!
Mou Biao looked down and saw the cloth bag in her hand again,

"what is this?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for her to speak, he stretched out his hand to grab it and opened it, and couldn't help but sneer twice,
"It's a shame to give away an old dress. Mou Xiumei is not stingy, she is stingy!"

As he spoke, he threw it to Mou Hu who was behind him in distaste, Jia Silian hurriedly blocked the way,

"Such a good material, don't throw it away..."

Mou Biao replied,

"If you want to make clothes, I'll give you the materials. You don't need this girl's old clothes!"

Jia Silian said,

"What's wrong with the old clothes? In our family, all the younger sisters wear older sister's clothes..."

Sometimes when the clothes are passed to Liulian, they can no longer be worn!

Mou Biao thought for a while, then frowned,
"You take this back and wear it for your sisters, I'll give you the material, and you make a new one..."

Jia Silian still wanted to shake her head, but she has not dealt with Mou Biao for a day or two. She knows that this rich man has a strong temper, and if you don't want it, you will be slapped in the face.
"Isn't Mr. Mou hungry?"

As soon as Mou Biao was reminded by her, he immediately remembered that his stomach was still growling, so he put aside the matter of clothes, turned his head and went to the side hall first, and did not forget to correct him,
"Call me Xiaolin..."

A table was set up in the side hall, and there were several dishes on the table, including rice and a jug. Mou Biao sat down and beckoned Jia Silian to sit down. He reached out for the jug and poured it into the wine glass in front of Jia Silian. busy covering with hands,
"I...I don't know how to drink..."

Mou Biao smiled,
"I only eat alcohol outside, I don't drink alcohol at home, this is juice..."

Only then did Jia Silian move her hand away, and Mou Biao poured out the body of the jug, and the dark red liquid inside poured out, the fruity fragrance hit her face, but it was pomegranate juice.
"Do you try to enter?"

Mou Biao motioned her to try it, Jia Silian took a sip carefully, the taste was slightly sour and sweet, she had never tasted such a delicious juice in her life, she couldn't help but smiled at Mou Biao,

"Delicious!"

Mou Biao was very satisfied, and brought some food for her. With Jia Silian's background, she had never eaten anything on this table in her life, and everything was delicious. Fortunately, she knew it well when she came here. The rich and powerful people in the family must eat delicacies from mountains and seas. She repeatedly warned herself not to gobble it up or show a poor image!
So no matter how delicious the food on the table is, she chews it in small mouthfuls, sipping pomegranate juice from time to time, but Mou Biao is so hungry that he is not gentle at all, so he takes a bowl and eats with big mouthfuls, and picks up vegetables with his big chopsticks , Most of the pot of pomegranate juice went into his stomach, and the two of them just ate like this. Although they didn't talk much, they were relaxed, as if they had been friends for many years.

Jia Silian put down the bowl and chopsticks after using a bowl, Mou Biao frowned,

"Why do you eat so little..."

After that, he personally served her another bowl,
"You were born so thin, if you don't eat more, how will you grow taller?"

Jia Silian thought about the heights of her sisters, smiled and shook her head,

"I'm afraid I won't grow taller..."

Jia Jincheng was tall and slender, but Xiang's was short and fat. None of the girls in the family were tall from Dalian to Liulian. Jia Laoqi was also a thin and small child, and he didn't know if he would grow taller in the future.

As she thought, her eyes fell on Mou Biao,

"I want to come to Xiao... Xiao Lin will be a very tall president in the future..."

Mu Biao nodded,

"That's natural, I will grow to nearly six feet in the future..."

"Six feet?"

Jia Silian was amazed,
"Can you grow that tall?"

It seems that the elders in Mr. Mou's family must be tall!
Mou Biao secretly said,

"I grew to nearly six feet in my previous life..."

In his previous life, he practiced martial arts diligently and had a big appetite. Before the age of fourteen, he was about the same size as his brothers, but after the age of fourteen, somehow, his stature climbed up and he became the tallest man in the Mou family!
The two chatted and ate, and Jia Silian ate another bowl unknowingly.
"belch……"

She hiccupped and quickly covered her mouth with a blushing little face. Mou Biao laughed in satisfaction,
"You are full, you should be full!"

Jia Silian blushed and lowered her eyelids, since she came to this world, she has never eaten so well,

"That means we're full, let's go for a walk..."

Mou Biao put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and stretched out his hand to pull her sleeve,

"Let's go, let's go to the backyard first..."
