After Mu Yan came to the Wei family in Baiyue City, she never went out. She had been cooking and washing clothes for Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin for three consecutive days.

Wei Yuan received a report that Elder Eighth and Elder Ninth had no choice but to send food in the big kitchen, and all the food was made by the girl Xing'er himself.

So on that day, Wei Yuan brought Wei Fangping to the yard where Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin lived, and as soon as he entered the door, he smelled an attractive fragrance.

The main hall of the courtyard was open, and Wei Yuan waved his hand to signal his servants not to report. When he and Wei Fangping approached, they saw Xiao Yuesheng and the other four eating. The food on the table was obviously made by the girl Xing'er. There were several dishes that Wei Yuan and Wei Fangping had never seen before. They were full of color, fragrance and taste, and they made people's index fingers move.

"Haha! I didn't see Miss Xing'er's delicate appearance. She was so good at cooking. She could smell the fragrance from a distance." Wei Yuan said with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin quickly stood up and retreated aside.

"What is the command of the city lord to send someone to ask his subordinates to go?" Xiao Yuesheng said with a smile.

"What? The Eighth Elder doesn't welcome us?" Wei Yuan asked with a smile.

"How could it be? I'm afraid of neglecting the city lord. Please sit down quickly, Lord and Young Master." Xiao Yuesheng said, "Xing'er, go and get two new pairs of bowls and chopsticks and prepare fragrant tea."

"Yes." Mu Yan nodded, then lowered her eyebrows and went out with her eyes open.

"I'm disturbing you for your meal." Wei Yuan said, and he was sitting down in the original position where Mu Yan was sitting.

"The City Lord is so polite. The food made by Xing'er is still in the mouth. If the City Lord and the Young Master don't dislike it, just enjoy your face and taste it." Xiao Yuesheng said with a smile.

"The Eighth Elder is so humble." Wei Yuan said, Mu Yan had already brought back the new bowls and chopsticks, and respectfully placed them for him and Wei Fangping. The father and son were not polite, so they picked up the chopsticks and started eating.

After tasting a few dishes, Wei Yuan praised her and said that Miss Xing'er's cooking skills were really amazing, and she compared the best old chefs in the mansion.

Mu Yan stood aside and silently watched Wei Yuan stretch out his chopsticks for the second time to pick up the chicken legs she made for Xiao Yuesheng. Xiao Yuesheng's fingers obviously shook abnormally...

When they were almost finished eating, Wei Yuan put down the chopsticks, and the others quickly put down the chopsticks. Mu Yan and Tuoba Yan removed the dishes and put them on fragrant tea.

Xiao Yuesheng waved his hand and said, "You two should step back!"

Wei Yuan said, "No, I have to explain some things to the two elders, so Miss Xing'er and Young Master Xiaohan will listen too."

"Master Lord, please give me instructions." Xiao Yuesheng nodded.

Wei Yuan did not beat around the bush and looked directly at Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin and said, "A few days ago, I went back and thought about it, and discussed with Fang Ping and other elders. They all thought it was feasible, and they selected the Fourth Miss as the candidate for marriage with Wilson City this time. But then they went to Wilson City to discuss marriage and cooperation. Everyone unanimously recommended the Eighth Elders and the Ninth Elders. I wonder what the two of them meant?"

Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin looked at each other, stood up, bowed and said to Wei Yuan, "I will follow the instructions of the city lord."

Wei Yuan smiled and said, "Don't be reserved, sit down quickly. Although the two are the youngest elders, they are also the ones that please me the most. This mission is a bit dangerous. After all, you have just captured Lian Ce's nephew before. Lian Ce may be detrimental to you, but I believe that you will definitely have a way to solve it. No matter whether you succeed or not, you will be rewarded when you come back!"

"Thank you, Lord City!" Xiao Yuesheng looked happy.

Wei Yuan's eyes turned to Mu Yan and Tuoba Yan, and said with a smile: "The two elders are not inconvenient to bring their families here, so please feel free to leave Miss Xing'er and Young Master Xiaohan in the City of Baiyue. I will not let anyone bully them. The ladies in the mansion and the girls from the elders' homes, Miss Xing'er can walk around more without seeing them. If you have any needs, just go out and buy them."

"Thank you, Lord City." Mu Yan said with his head down, Tuoba Yan was silent.

"How many people do the two elders think they are suitable to bring to Wonderland City this time?" Wei Yuan asked Xiao Yuesheng.

Xiao Yuesheng thought for a while and said, "This time we are going to have a marriage. We are the woman in Yuecheng, so don't be too busy and wait."

After Lian Ce agreed to the marriage, it was not too late to leave other etiquettes. If there were too many people, it would be difficult to let Lian Ce go to his guard."

Wei Yuan nodded: "The Eighth Elders are right, but the two elders came to worship Yuecheng and didn't even bring a follower, so it's inconvenient to go out. I picked four young disciples from the Wei family who are good at martial arts and clever. I will send you this time to you."

"Then I'll thank you for the city lord!" Mu Lin nodded, not feeling displeased or hesitant. Although this was obviously Wei Yuan's eyeliner to them. After all, the other elders of the Wei family were chosen from Baiyue City. It was the first time that the Wei family made an exception to promote elders from the affiliated town. Wei Yuan wanted to use them, but he was still somewhat suspicious.

Wei Yuan stood up with a smile: "Family, don't be so dissatisfied. Those two elders will leave tomorrow, and things should not be too late. Those four followers for your dispatch will be waiting at the door tomorrow morning."

Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin sent Wei Yuan and Wei Fangping out of the yard, and Wei Yuan asked them to come back.

"In the future, except for our own family, whoever competes with me for chicken legs is my enemy." Xiao Yuesheng said this to Mu Yan as soon as he entered the door, and then looked at Mu Yan and said pitifully, "My brother and sister, I haven't eaten enough, nor have I eaten well."

"I'll have afternoon tea later." Mu Yan said with a smile, "There is stewed on the stove, and it will be fine in half an hour." In the past few days, Xiao Yuesheng has been saying that he had been having too hard before and asked for five meals a day. In addition to three meals, there would be afternoon tea and midnight snacks. Mu Yan agreed one by one.

When Xiao Yuesheng heard that there was venison meat, he was immediately happy. Then Tuoba Yan looked at Xiao Yuesheng and said, "Uncle, your saliva is flowing."

Xiao Yuesheng hugged Tuoba Yan, twisted his face and said, "Langlang, no matter how naughty uncle, you really beat you up!"

"Brother, stop making trouble now. You will go to Wildfog City again tomorrow. Lian Ce has seen you and knows your true identity. I am not very worried about your safety. But there is a problem. Even if you really succeed in making Jin Liancheng become a monk this time, then the marriage will be gone. It is still far from the result Wei Yuan expected to want." Mu Yan said to Xiao Yuesheng, "What Wei Yuan wants is Wildfog City. Eliminating the threat of Jin Liancheng is secondary."

"Don't worry, younger brother and sister, we have already thought about this." Xiao Yuesheng said calmly, "As long as Xiao Jin becomes a monk, we can officially cooperate with Wonder City. I ask my younger brother and sister for the blessing of saving the Lian family father and son before, and Lian Yu is still waiting for us to heal his eyes, so it should not be difficult to make them trust us. At that time, let Lian Ce pretend to bow to the Wei family and use this method to protect Wonder City. After all, now that there are enemies around Wonder City, resistance is definitely not the best strategy."

"Okay, brother, you always love everyone, so it depends on you." Mu Yan smiled, "But I don't know if the monk Xuanku has left Lotus City now. If he is still there, don't offend him. Remember to say hello to Xiao Xing'er and I, so that he can go to Divine Soldier City if he has time. This monk is not a small person, we have to have a good relationship with him, and there will definitely be benefits in the future. As for the stupid things he does, such as taking Jin Liancheng as his disciple, you can just mention him a few words, and there is no need to say anything more. He is completely different from ours. Maybe he firmly believes that Jin Liancheng can turn from evil to justice."

"Well, I know this. Last time I met, I didn't tell the monk Xuanku about the evil that Xiao Jin had done before, because I was very clear that it would not be of much use. Maybe Xuanku felt that he should save Xiao Jin so that Xiao Jin would be lost and return." Xiao Yuesheng said.

"Little sister, when we leave, you and Xiao Yan must not act rashly. Although you have read the drawings and mechanisms of the Wei family's forbidden land, you will still find an opportunity to take action when we come back." Mu Lin looked at Mu Yan with a serious expression and said.

"Yes!" Xiao Yuesheng also said, "Sister-in-law, just wait for us to bring back the three dragon flame flowers of the Lian family. Don't be anxious about the Wei family's flowers. There are too many experts here. If we are not afraid of arousing Wei Yuan's suspicion, we should take you to Washimo City to be more appropriate."

"I know, I have always been the most appropriate." Mu Yan said with a smile, "Don't worry, two brothers. I have to read the martial arts secrets you brought out from the forbidden area for a while. If there is really a lady from the Wei family or the granddaughter of other elders who want to go out to play with me, I can go to the Baiyue City to explore the situation."

“Anyway, my brother

Sister, be careful, Langlang, look at your mother." Xiao Yuesheng's last sentence was said to Tuoba Yan.

Mu Yan held his forehead: "Brother, what do you mean? Do I make you feel more worried than Xiao Yan?"

Xiao Yuesheng sighed slightly: "Little brother and sister, you know how to behave, but you are too brave. Mu Xiaolin and I hope you don't go anywhere and just stay in the house to read calligraphy, paintings, but you definitely won't listen. The measure you know is a bit too big. Compared with it, you are not as steady as Lang Lang."

Tuoba Yan smiled: "Uncle, uncle, don't worry, I will take good care of my mother and not let her run around."

Mu Yan said that these people are really, she has always been very well-behaved and reliable...

However, what happened later proved that Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin's worries were definitely not redundant, but that was all about later.

Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin will leave early tomorrow morning, and they each went to pack up a burden.

The venison stewed by Mu Yan was ready, and most of the time it entered Xiao Yuesheng's stomach. Xiao Yuesheng also asked Mu Yan to prepare the dry food for them to eat this time, because the dry food prepared by Mu Yan was much better than ordinary ones.

It was soon the next day. Early in the morning, four young men were waiting outside the yard. This was the entourage prepared by Wei Yuan for Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin. However, whether it was the entourage or the eyeliner, it was not worth worrying about for Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin. They had their own way to avoid these people in secret.

Mu Yan and Tuoba Yan just sent them outside the yard and went back. Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin took their entourage and were personally sent onto a boat by the eldest elder of the Wei family and went out to sea to go to Wicker City.

The next day after Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin left, a girl came to visit Mu Yan to play. She was the granddaughter of the eldest elder of the Wei family, named Wei Qinfang. She was in her twenties and was a young widow with a plump figure and gorgeous appearance, with a somewhat charming charm.

When Wei Qinfang saw Mu Yan, she was about to hold Mu Yan's hand and call "Sister Xing'er", and Mu Yan subconsciously avoided it.

Wei Qinfang was not annoyed and said with a smile: "Sister Xing'er is afraid that she is a little bit resentful. It's okay. My sister should have come to talk to you long ago, but she is afraid that the Eighth Elder thinks I'm upset."

Mu Yan smiled slightly and called out a little embarrassedly: "Sister Qinfang joked." After the words, Mu Yan thought silently. It was not easy to pretend to be a delicate and gentle little beauty. She felt that it was a bit pretentious to speak...

"I heard from my grandfather that the city lord had a meal here and went back to praise Sister Xing'er's cooking skills! I will learn a few tricks with Sister Xing'er another day." Wei Qinfang said with a smile.

"Okay." Mu Yan nodded, but thought in her heart that she would be diligent in her heart, either a traitor or a thief. Her current identity is just a person who serves as a beauty and has no status. There is no need for the people in this mansion to have friendship with her. This little widow named Wei is too enthusiastic about her. If something goes wrong, there will be a demon.

"Since I want to ask Sister Xing'er to teach me cooking skills, I have to express my feelings first." Wei Qinfang said to Mu Yan with a smile, "The largest cloth shop in the city has newly added a batch of good materials. The boss lady is my friend. I agreed to keep it for me to choose first. Tomorrow, Sister Xing'er will follow me to pick some of her favorite fabrics and make a few new clothes. When the Eighth Elder comes back, she will like Sister Xing'er even more."

"Okay." Mu Yan said with a smile, "I brought two clothes when I came, and I was worried that I couldn't change it."

"Okay, I won't bother Sister Xing'er anymore. I'll come over and call you tomorrow." Wei Qinfang said and got up and wanted to leave.

"Sister, go slowly." Mu Yan sent him outside the door and watched Wei Qinfang leave with two maids. Just looking at her back, her waist was soft and graceful.

"What do you think she has the purpose?" Tuoba Yan's voice came from behind.

Mu Yan smiled and turned around: "I don't know, let's go and have a look tomorrow. Xiao Yan, you have to stay at home and don't run around."

Tuoba Yan frowned: "I want to go too, I promised my uncle and uncle to look at my mother."

"Son, don't be so nervous." Mu Yan rubbed Tuoba Yan's head, "Be good, you will stay at home tomorrow, don't run around, no one comes to find you, don't go out, just settle down. You go with me, I still have to take care of you."

"Mom..." Tuoba Yan expressed unhappiness.

“It’s useless to call dad.

"Mu Yan said with a smile.

Xiao Yuesheng and Mu Lin left, but Mu Yan was still cooking, and only she and Tuoba Yan were left. Xiao Yuesheng didn't compete with them, so I felt that there was much less fun.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Wei Qinfang really came again with her maid and asked Mu Yan to go out together.

Getting into a carriage with gorgeous appearance, Mu Yan asked Wei Qinfang curiously: "Sister Wei, I grew up on Xianluo Island. There are no new things on the shops on Xianluo Island and there is not much business. Baiyue City is so big, will he do business with other cities?"

Wei Qinfang smiled and nodded, "Of course I can. Baiyue City, Qi family and Han family have a lot of business dealings, but those who want to do business must obtain the consent of the City Lord's Mansion and communicate with other families under the supervision of the City Lord's Mansion, otherwise it will be easy to do a meticulous job, and 80% of the money you earn will have to be handed over to the City Lord's Mansion."

Mu Yan thought silently in her heart, it's really bad. In this way, those who do business will not make much money in the end, and the oil and water will be taken away by the people in power.

However, Mu Yan thought again that merchants are profit-seeking. Since there are people doing business in this city, it means that business is profitable. Then there is only one possibility left. The things you bought are sold at an unreasonable high price. In the final analysis, the city lord's mansion uses the merchant's hands to exploit ordinary people in disguise, resulting in the richer the richer and the poorer the poorer the poorer.

Mu Yan chatted with Wei Qinfang, who seemed to be a country bun, and asked many questions "thirsty for knowledge". The contempt in Wei Qinfang's eyes and the inexplicable jealousy and disgust hidden carefully were noticed, but it was not obvious on his face. He got a lot of information from Wei Qinfang. Wei Qinfang even unintentionally revealed to Mu Yan the weakness of a great elder of the Wei family, who was addicted to alcohol and could not walk when smelling the fragrance of wine...

While speaking, he arrived at the cloth shop that Wei Qinfang mentioned. After getting off the car, Wei Qinfang pulled Mu Yan in. As soon as he entered the door, he smiled and said, "Sister Xing'er, whatever you like today, just say, sister, buy it for you!"

"Oh! Whose lady is so generous?" A woman with heavy makeup walked over with a smile, looked at Mu Yan for a while, and said with an exaggerated expression, "Qinfang, is this the beauty you mentioned to me before that the Eighth Elders of your mansion brought? It's so beautiful. If I were a man, I would also like such a delicate little beauty..."

Before the woman finished speaking, she saw a hint of displeasure flashing in Wei Qinfang's eyes, and immediately stopped talking and said with a smile: "This sister is here for the first time today. I will choose whatever I want. I will ask her to take care of her in the future."

"Ruhua, don't snatch me. I've told you that I'll treat you to whatever sister Xing'er buys today. Will we give you the money?" Wei Qinfang said with a smile, but her smile became a little lighter.

The woman named Ruhua covered her mouth with a veil and said with a smile: "That's that's it, that's it, two distinguished guests, please, the best materials are already prepared for you."

Mu Yan could feel that Ruhua was a little afraid of Wei Qinfang, but she was a first-time visitor in Baiyue City and had no idea about Wei Qinfang's reputation. She was not very clear about Wei Qinfang's purpose of deliberately approaching her.

When he got upstairs, Mu Yan was not polite and picked a few pieces of material, one of which was indigo-green. Mu Yan smiled and said that she wanted to make two clothes for her eight elders. When she said this, Mu Yan clearly felt that Wei Qinfang's eyes darkened and she quickly returned to normal.

After picking up the ingredients, I drank two more cups of tea, and went downstairs together and said I would go back.

When he was about to get on the carriage, Wei Qinfang suddenly smiled and said, "Sister Xing'er, it's still early. Sister, please take you out of the city to the beach to see the scenery. The scenery of this season is also very beautiful. When you came here at night, I'm afraid you didn't see it."

Mu Yan looked very happy: "Okay!"

So the two got on the carriage and headed towards the city gate together.
