Chapter 151 The Disappearance of the Third Lady
After practicing in the cave for a long time, he lost track of time. With Zhang Qing by his side, his help was equivalent to that of four ladies.
Therefore, recently Mo Juren has been practicing directly in the cave even though he has been inviting evil spirits into his body, without having to travel between the two places.
The main reason for coming back to Jiayuan City this time was because I remembered that Hong Jin, the inspector of Lingshou Mountain, had said last time that he would provide supplies at the Jingjiao Conference next year.
When senior brother "Zhang Tie" returned home, the Mo family gave him a warm welcome and held a family dinner to welcome him back. All the ladies of the Mo family gathered together.
However, the third and fifth wives were not there. He asked the fourth wife, Yan Liu, and then she told him,
The third lady has left the city as usual, but this time her return date has been delayed and she has not returned home yet.
Mo Juren didn't take it seriously. He thought it was probably some action or instruction from her mysterious master. These were hard to guess, and it was impossible for outsiders to know.
But if you are talking about worrying about the third lady's safety, there is no need to worry.
Not to mention the mysterious identity of Granny Jinhua as a foundation-building cultivator, the fact that the Third Madam has never been in any danger over the years is enough to give us some idea.
This was the first time that Mo Caihuan met her "Senior Brother Zhang Tie", so she came forward and shook Mo Juren's hand to ask for a gift.
The girl, who was about thirteen or fourteen years old, was so innocent and childlike that Mo Juren could not bear to refuse her.
But he had already given her the Tangram box last time as her father, and now he didn’t have any suitable gift.
Finally, when he found out that she was still a little money-grubber and wanted to cash in the gift, he had an idea.
He took out the gold from his bosom, and with his powerful finger strength, he pinched a large gold pendant for her on the spot, and secretly hid a strip-shaped essence-nourishing pill inside it.
Then he told the little girl,
"Don't underestimate this valuable gold pendant. It can also be a life-saving treasure. Just carry it with you."
"If you encounter any life-threatening injuries, you can just break it and a life-saving elixir will naturally appear."
"Remember you can only use it once, so don't break it accidentally."
Mo Caihuan took it excitedly and was reluctant to let it go. It was not known whether it was because of the gold weight on her hand or because she understood Mo Juren's hint.
Mo Juren also took out some second-order wire snake meat, saying it was a rare wild game delicacy, and asked the chef to make it into a home-cooked dish for everyone to taste.
The original intention was to use this thing with strong energy and blood to nourish the bodies of everyone in the Mo Mansion. Unexpectedly, most people disliked the bloody smell of the meat, which was too strong and not as good as ordinary meat, so they were not very interested.
Mo Juren couldn't force him, so he could only eat it with relish.
After the meal, the daughters of the Mo family left one after another.
When Mo Juren mentioned that Hong Jin wanted Jing Jiao to provide supplies to Lingshou Mountain, the fourth lady Yan Liu said,
"The Jing Jiao Society has been thriving recently, and the income under its jurisdiction has slowly increased. Since the 'immortal' has asked for it, there is no reason to refuse. I believe he will not be too harsh."
Mo Juren Dao,
"I don't know what to prepare specifically, but that person once said that everything should be similar to that of the Five Colors Sect. It looks like I need to meet the leader of the Five Colors Sect, Li Shizhuo."
The fourth lady said,
"Speaking of the Five Colors Sect, that's easy. Recently, our Yuzhu has been very close to the young master of the Five Colors Sect, Li Yan."
"I think that little girl is about to fall in love with someone. If Yuzhu asks, won't she be able to get the details from Li Yan?"
Mo Juren thought that was a good idea. The Five Colors Sect and his Jingjiao Society were a perfect match, and Li Yan was not someone with a bad reputation, so he just let things take their own course.
Yuzhu's personality is similar to her mother's. She likes to be in the spotlight and enjoy the limelight. It's possible that she may even take over the Fourth Lady's job in the future.
At this point, the Fourth Madam intentionally or unintentionally inquired about "Zhang Tie's" attitude, and seemed to be somewhat concerned about how Mo Juren would arrange for Jingjiao Club. Mo Juren told her not to worry, as long as the Fourth Madam was willing, she would always be the head of Jingjiao Club in public. Master Mo's heart was now devoted to cultivation and he had no time to care about anything else.
The fourth lady finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that she has become accustomed to this powerful position over the years, so it is normal for her to feel a little attached to it. For Mo Juren, it is just perfect.
The next day, the Fifth Lady came back from the dark rudder, and "Zhang Tie" left "just because of something".
Mo Juren once again "adventured" to sneak into the Mo Mansion, and staged a series of secret meetings with the ladies to comfort their bodies and minds...
Afterwards, Mo Juren lingered in the Mo Mansion for two more days, but still did not see the third wife come back, which made him more suspicious.
So before leaving, Mo Juren told the Fourth Lady that if Liu Yaruo did not show up after three days, she should send a letter to Wenjian Villa, and he would naturally deal with it after receiving the news.
At worst, I can go to Quling City and Bailian Gorge to look for it carefully.
Mo Juren still took his beloved fifth wife with him and left Jiayuan City and headed for Wenjian Villa.
Of course, there was a lot of heartfelt talk during the period, and they even went out of their way to find the hunting ground of the past to "reminisce the past" in person, with the sky as their quilt and the ground as their bed.
Both of them never get tired of it and even enjoy it.
Mo Juren suddenly had an idea and asked,
"Recently, under the management of the Fourth Madam, the Jingjiao Society has become more and more stable, and there is nothing that Jiayuan City needs to guard against."
"He'er, why don't you just unload the burden of An Du and let them all return to the Jing Jiao Society, so that you can also relax and enjoy it, how do you think?"
Seeing that Mo Juren was sincere and had a genuine wish, the Fifth Lady immediately agreed.
"He'er listens to her husband's arrangements. She does whatever her husband wants her to do."
"Why don't I just go to the cave and serve tea and water to my husband? How do you think?"
Mo Juren gently scratched Madam Wu's beautiful nose and said teasingly,
"That's not necessary. Zhang Qing is doing a good job. As for Wenjian Villa, I think it's suitable for you, He'er, to manage it."
"This place is close to my cultivation cave, so I can see my husband anytime, isn't that great?"
The Fifth Lady nodded in his arms and said again,
"Well, He'er will listen to your husband's arrangements. Whatever your husband wants you to do, He'er will do it."
Mo Juren laughed out loud.
The Fifth Lady suddenly said,
"Then how about letting Feng Wu come with me to Wenjian Villa?"
Mo Juren was puzzled.
"Why did you think of going to Feng Wu?"
The Fifth Lady explained,
"That little girl spends all day in the backyard of the Mo Mansion tending flowers and plants, and rarely talks to anyone. She's almost become a dumb girl,"
"Why not come to Wenjian Villa? There is a lot of space here, and we can open up a big medicinal garden and let her help you take care of it. What do you think?"
Mo Juren thought about it and agreed.
