Chapter 72: The Seductive Master's Wife
The Fourth Lady did not expect that this "Zhang Tie" who sneaked into the Mo Mansion knew all the secrets of her husband.
Seeing that she had no questions, Mo Juren continued,
"I wonder if Madam Four believes what I said to be credible?"
After hearing this, the fourth lady no longer doubted Zhang Tie's identity, because these secrets were not revealed to anyone other than the four ladies, not even to their daughter.
Seeing that the Second and Third Madams also nodded in agreement, she hurriedly said,
"In that case, please tell me the details of my husband's situation as soon as possible..."
To make a long story short, Mo Juren made up a story.
"Zhang Tie" met "Doctor Mo" who was practicing medicine everywhere in Jingzhou. After becoming his disciple, the two of them accidentally rescued a wounded mysterious man. In the end, he was given elixir and precious medicine, which cured Doctor Mo's hidden illness. Now he is in seclusion to recover his strength, and he doesn't know how long it will take, so he sent himself back to Lanzhou to help the Mo family.
When the three ladies heard the news that Mo Juren was not only alive and well, but also had fully recovered his powers and was expected to return soon, they were all delighted and excited. They looked at each other with tears in their eyes and were almost crying with joy.
When Mo Juren saw this scene, he secretly empathized for a while, but when he thought that he would eventually appear in his true form, he put these thoughts aside for the time being.
After a while, the fourth lady came back to her senses and said to Mo Juren,
"Zhang Tie, since you are our husband's disciple, if you don't mind, I would like to call you Tie'er. I am your Fourth Master's Wife, and these are the Second and Third Master's Wife. There is also a Fifth Master's Wife, and your Master Mo's three daughters. I will introduce them to you later."
Tie'er? Mo Juren's face jumped, but after thinking about it, it was normal. After all, he looked only sixteen or seventeen years old. So he nodded to the three people to show his greetings, and then got down to business.
"The Iron Yellow Essence I showed you today was obtained by chance by Master Mo, and was given to me to bring back for use. If used well, it may be able to resolve the current situation in the Mo Mansion in one fell swoop."
The ladies were delighted and said,
"Could it be that my husband has already come up with a plan?"
Mo Juren nodded and said,
"He has already told me the direction of action. Now that this treasure has appeared in the world, it is bound to stir up a storm in Lanzhou. It may even attract some old guys who have been hiding from the world. I think the Mo family should mobilize all their elite troops, firstly to protect the safety of the disciples, and secondly to take advantage of this opportunity to wipe out all the forces in Jiayuan City in one fell swoop and restore unity."
The fourth lady said,
"That's exactly what I meant. Now our Mo Mansion has been fully prepared to deal with the situation. We have also arranged for the elite members of the Jing Jiao Society to be dispatched, as well as An Du and others. Tie'er can rest assured."
Then I worried,
"I heard from Yuzhu that Tie'er, you are a martial artist with amazing body movements. I wonder if someone will target you if you carry the Iron Yellow Essence with you? During this period of time, you should stay in the Mo Mansion to avoid being targeted and robbed. What do you think?"
The third lady was also very interested.
"Yes, Tie'er, you are learning your husband's martial arts? Magic Silver Hand? Trapped Dragon Skill or Body Skill? Haha, I wonder how strong you are?"
Liu Ya is the most active one, and I'm afraid I won't be able to convince them unless I show some skills.
So Mo Juren met her charming smile and said with a smile,
"I heard from Master Mo that besides the Fifth Master's Wife, the Third Master's Wife has the most powerful martial arts skills. If you don't believe me, let's have a fight and we'll know. How about that?"
The third lady didn't want this boy to look at her so openly, not treating them as elders at all, so she covered her face and smiled,
"Haha, it's not that I don't trust you, but words are false, seeing is believing. I hope Tie'er will show mercy. Third Master's Wife hasn't fought with anyone in a long time... Watch out!"
Before she finished her words, the jade hand hidden under her sleeve had already poured out pink true energy and suddenly attacked Mo Juren.
Mo Juren was very familiar with the Third Lady's "Red Skeleton Palm" moves. He did not dodge or retreat, but used two fingers of his right hand to point out like a sword, attacking the Third Lady's armpit acupoint from bottom to top.
The Third Madam retracted her palm to defend herself, blocking while raising her foot, and kicked out from under her skirt with lightning speed, but Mo Juren took the opportunity to catch it with his left hand, and with a slight pull, the Third Madam fell backwards.
Mo Juren then deliberately let go, and the Third Madam fell backwards, and he flashed with Luo Yan Bu, rushed forward, and held the Third Madam's back with his hand, hugging her upper body. When their eyes met, the Third Madam blushed, which was rare, and hurriedly avoided his arms, turned her back to the crowd, pretending to tidy up her clothes, and panted secretly.
In such a scene, with a coquettish master's wife and a burly disciple pulling each other, it was naturally against etiquette and inappropriate.
The Second Madam turned her head away when she saw this, while the Fourth Madam coughed twice and said with a smile,
"Haha, it's rare that you can embarrass Sister Liu with just two moves. Tie'er's martial arts and body movements are really superb. There's no need for us Master's wives to worry in vain."
Mo Juren said as if nothing had happened.
"Everyone, rest assured. Please ask Madam Four to make arrangements and spread the news that the Jing Jiao Association will hold a 'Heroes' Meeting' in the south of the city tomorrow. At that time, Mo Juren's disciples will return to compete with the heroes of the city and re-establish the prestige of our Jing Jiao Association!"
"Well, the Fourth Master's wife knows that she will definitely make this event a success as Tie'er wishes."
Mo Juren thought further and asked,
"Also, do you have any paper and pen? I need you to buy some things for me tomorrow, which will be very useful then."
"Of course, Tie'er, come this way."
Not long after, Mo Juren wrote down a bunch of material names and asked the Fourth Lady to purchase them as soon as possible.
After discussing some details with them, he agreed to stay in the Mo Mansion under the enthusiastic persuasion of the three "master's wives".
The fourth lady arranged,
"There are too many guards and disciples in the mansion, and there are too many people in the guest house. If you don't want to show up, why don't you go to the medicine garden first? There are a few simple rooms there. Tie'er can stay there for one night. Is that okay?"
Mo Juren does not care about Tao.
"Okay, the quieter the better."
The third lady laughed and said,
"The medicine garden is where your Master Mo's adopted daughter Feng Wu lives. If Ku Tie'er is bored, he can go talk to Feng Wu to relieve his boredom. Haha, that little girl is also a quiet person, so it's just right to have someone to keep her company."
Mo Juren nodded and took his leave, and was personally taken to the medicine garden by the Second Madam.
He saw that this familiar place where he often lingered in the past to grow medicinal herbs and grass had not changed much. Many kinds of medicinal herbs were planted in the medicinal fields.
It was obvious that someone was taking care of it and it had not been abandoned, which made Mo Juren happy.
The second lady introduced,
"This place is now being taken care of by the little girl Feng Wu. She is just like your Master Mo. She likes to play with these flowers and herbs. She is also obsessed with pharmacology and medicine and never leaves her house all day."
After bringing the person here, the second wife said goodbye and left.
She came from a scholarly family, and her ancestors had been officials for many years, so she was very polite.
Mo Juren didn't treat her like he treated the third wife, always trying to tease her.
It was not the right time to recognize each other yet, so he did not say much and just watched her leave.
Thanks to book friends "Daoxincangmang" and "Dongganyizu" for their monthly ticket support, thank you.
