Chapter 132 Death
Chapter 132 Death
Everything happened as Mu Jinghua expected.
He had just fixed Old Lady Shen's legs with a wooden board when he looked up and saw that Old Lady Shen's face had turned blue and her lips had turned purple. He was so frightened that he quickly looked back and in a panic forgot that he couldn't speak. He just called out, "Master."
At this time, Shen Guang and the eldest son of the Shen family went to the town to get medicine, and only Shen Zhuo and Aunt Shen were waiting by their side.
Shen Zhuo was familiar with Mu Jinghua and Xu Shu, and he was smart. When he saw Mu Jinghua's reaction, he knew that something was wrong. Then he looked at his grandmother and quickly called out to Qi Huairen: "Doctor Qi, Doctor Qi."
Qi Huairen was right beside. Although he couldn't read lip language, he was old and experienced, so he could guess what was going on by looking at her expression. He quickly dropped the porridge in his hand and stood up to take Old Lady Shen's pulse.
As soon as he touched it, he began to sigh: "It's too late, the pulse has stopped."
Aunt Shen immediately started to cry out, "Why? Why, Doctor Qi?"
Qi Huairen flipped Mrs. Shen's tightly closed eyes, looked at her tongue again, and gave his own judgment: "She's poisoned. It's too late."
Shen Zhuo frowned: "Why is he poisoned?"
Xu Shu came forward and pulled Mu Jinghua up, and asked casually: "Where did you find her?"
Aunt Shen looked at Shen Zhuo with red eyes.
Shen Zhuo swallowed his saliva and said uncertainly: "I found it in the back mountain. I fell into a ravine. Could it be that I was bitten by a snake?"
"How could he fall for no reason?" Qi Huairen said, "I'm afraid he encountered a snake and accidentally tripped while running, so he fell into the ravine."
Aunt Shen looked up at the sky with dismay and cried, "Oh my God, why did you do this to our Shen family? First my daughter, then my mother. Why, why, why?"
Xu Shu pulled Mu Jinghua to another place, and then heard Qi Huairen say, "Found it, the bite mark is here, it is indeed a snake, I am sorry."
Aunt Shen was crying so hard that she was out of breath. Xu Shu didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only pour her a cup of hot water and hand it to her.
After a while, Shen Guang and the eldest son of the Shen family came back driving a ox cart. As soon as they entered the door and heard Aunt Shen crying, they knew that things were not going well.
Qi Huairen sighed at him: "My condolences."
After all, the village chief's family had a good relationship with Xu Shu, so Xu Shu still helped symbolically and it was not until very late that the matter was finally settled.
Xu Shu said goodbye to Qi Huairen and took Mu Jinghua home in silence.
When they were about to reach the door of the house, Xu Shucai said, "Xiao Mujin, don't run to the back mountain anymore. There are snakes there. It's very dangerous."
Mu Jinghua did not refute and nodded obediently.
Xu Shu urged him to go to bed. Anyway, he couldn't help it last time and kissed and hugged her. He had already done everything. Now he didn't hesitate to do anything and directly carried Mu Jinghua to bed.
The bed is a little small and not sturdy. I think it will fall apart after a few more uses.
Xu Shu was planning to move to his new home in a week. The villagers seemed to have a custom of warming up the house, as if to invite everyone to have a meal together.
At that time, it will be a good opportunity for the chefs of Muyi Building to try out their skills. If they do well, it can also provide some simple publicity for Muyi Building.
Even if the villagers have low purchasing power, it doesn't matter. The main thing is to let others know his current strength, and don't let a few more people like Old Lady Shen come, who are full of foul language and are simply disgusting.
As for the pottery kiln, although I don't need the money right now, it has been delayed for a long time, so I might as well put it on the market this morning.
Just take the shops that he had cheated from Xiao Ran. Xu Shu was thinking about it, but the person in his arms suddenly reached out and touched his Adam's apple, causing his body to stiffen and his voice to become hoarse immediately: "Don't want to sleep?"
In the darkness, Xu Shu saw Mu Jinghua smiling at him sweetly, and a little helplessly, he kissed him on the forehead: "Good night, baby."
He had a dreamless night. When Xu Shu opened his eyes the next morning, the person in his arms was still lying softly on his chest, sleeping soundly.
Xu Shu had no intention of waking him up, but as soon as he moved, Mu Jinghua opened his eyes, smiled at him, then looked up and kissed him.
His position could only touch the tip of Xu Shu's nose, so it was just a touch, but Xu Shu's heart was still moved by the kiss and he couldn't help but hug him tighter.
Mu Jinghua was very well behaved at first, but after a while he reached out and poked Xu Shu in the chest.
Xu Shu lowered his head to look at him and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
Mu Jinghua smiled and mouthed, "Hard."
"Fuck." Xu Shu couldn't help but curse. He was thinking about how to teach Mu Jinghua a lesson, but Mu Jinghua was very foresighted and ran away.
Xu Shu did not chase him. Seeing him run off the bed barefoot, he just urged him, "The floor is cold, come here."
Mu Jinghua turned around and smiled at him, but refused to go over, and just said, "No."
Xu Shu lifted the quilt and let him in: "Okay, okay, I won't move you."
Mu Jinghua hesitated for a while before obediently crawling into his bed.
As soon as he got on the bed, Xu Shu hugged him in his arms through the quilt and kissed him hard before letting him go: "Okay, I have something else to do today, get ready, we'll go pick up your master."
Mu Jinghua was wrapped inside and couldn't resist, so he could only nod obediently.
He got dressed and went to the kitchen to cook, while Xu Shu took some time out of his busy schedule to review what he needed to do today.
First, go pick up Qi Huairen and take him to the Huimin Hall to pack his things.
The next step was to send Mu Jinghua to Muyi Building for training.
Then there is the matter of the gambling house, and the land deed needs to be obtained.
There were a lot of things to do, so Xu Shu didn't waste any time. After breakfast, he drove the carriage to pick up Qi Huairen.
It was Qu Xiu who cooked the meal for Qi Huairen. It was obvious that Qu Xiu was very reluctant. When he saw Mu Jinghua and Xu Shu, he couldn't help but secretly ask about it.
"Brother Xu, didn't you say you wanted to live with us?" Qu Xiu glanced at Mu Jinghua, "When are you going to move in?"
Xu Shu glanced at the food on the table that had not yet been cleared away. The appearance of the food was not as good as the one cooked by his little Mu Jin. He knew what Qu Xiu was thinking.
However, he had already made up his mind and would not change it casually, so he told the truth: "Wait for seven days."
"Ah?" Qu Xiu let out a depressed sound, looking extremely depressed.
Xu Shu ignored him, helped Qi Huairen into the carriage, and went to the front to drive the horses.
However, he had good hearing and could easily hear Qu Xiu quietly asking Mu Jinghua in the carriage: "Brother Mu, why don't you talk to Xu Shu and come to live in the new house as soon as possible."
"No matter what, this new house was built with the money and effort of Brother Xu. How can my master and I move in first?"
Xu Shu couldn't help laughing. Sorry, we have already moved in. Is there any point in talking about it now?
But he didn't interrupt. If Mu Jinghua really agreed to Qu Xiu's request, he would be happy to do so and could propose some conditions to Mu Jinghua.
So that I don’t have to seduce him without restraint these days.
Silly goose.
