Found a Good Home (Second Update)
"Master, are there too many people? Wu Yun has arranged six..." Chang'an asked in a low voice. Read
М
At this moment, there are ten tall men surrounding Su Liang.
In comparison, Su Liang looks petite and weak.
Mu Fei sat under the tree, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Don't underestimate Miss Su. The contract has been signed, and she didn't say anything. She must have real skills."
How could Chang'an not hear that Mu Fei started to be sarcastic again?
Since meeting Su Liang and Ning Jing, Mu Fei, who used to be rational and calm, has lost control of his emotions more than once.
Chang'an knew that Mu Fei made such an arrangement to give Su Liang a warning, so he didn't say anything.
Nian Jincheng stood not far away, followed by his follower Nian Li.
"Where are the people?" Mu Fei frowned.
The reason why it hasn't started yet is because Ning Jing stained his hands with ink when adding the "Flying Cloud Bow" he wanted to the contract, and said to wash it, and asked him to wait until he came to fight.
Mu Fei was dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything. He waited for a quarter of an hour.
Chang'an was about to look for him when he saw Ning Jing coming. He held a box of snacks from Mingxianglou in his hand and chose a sunny spot to eat osmanthus cake.
It must have just come out of the oven to have such an attractive aroma. Chang'an could smell it.
Mingxianglou's osmanthus cake is very well made. It is baked at a fixed time every day and sold in limited quantities.
Chang'an deeply suspected that Ning Jing had calculated the time to buy it.
Nian Li couldn't help but say, "The seventh son of the Ning family doesn't look like the down-and-out man who was kicked out of the family as rumored. He is clearly living a comfortable and comfortable life!"
Nian Jincheng looked at the quiet and handsome man eating osmanthus cake and nodded slightly, "You are right."
Mu Fei glanced at Ning Jing, his face a little dark, "You really think of yourself as a gigolo!"
Chang'an coughed lightly, "There is no way, with Miss Su's pampering, being a gigolo is also the ability of Mr. Ning."
Nian Jincheng heard it: ... Although he doesn't agree, to be honest, it really looks a bit like it.
Mu Fei glanced over, and Chang'an asked loudly, "Is Miss Su ready?"
"Wait a minute." Su Liang said, walked out of the encirclement, went to Ning Jing, took a piece of osmanthus cake, ate it and came back, and suddenly attacked when Mu Fei's subordinates were unprepared!
Mu Fei suddenly sat up straight and snorted, "Is she trying to cheat?"
Chang'an hurriedly said, "Master, when the time comes to perform, it is Miss Su's decision when to start. It is precisely this situation, and it is impossible for all of our people to gather together and surround Miss Su!"
Mu Fei just didn't like Su Liang today, not that he didn't understand what she was doing.
Chang'an made a serious analysis, and got a cold look from Mu Fei, "So much nonsense! Go buy osmanthus cake!"
Chang'an weakly requested, "I want to see Miss Su's strength, and I will miss it. Master wants to eat osmanthus cake, I will ask Mr. Ning for a piece?"
Mu Fei's eyes were always on the battle situation, "Go. If he wants money, you pay."
Chang'an: ...Suddenly a little painful, premonition that he will be slaughtered soon...
But he still bit the bullet and went to Ning Jing.
Unexpectedly, Ning Jing was generous for the first time and motioned Chang'an to take the remaining two pieces of osmanthus cakes, "Please Lord Mu and General Nian have them."
No money was asked.
Chang'an was delighted and hurriedly took them, fearing that Ning Jing would regret it, "Thank you, Mr. Ning!"
Thinking that the box would be best placed in front of Mu Fei, Chang'an passed by Mu Fei and ran to give it to Nian Jincheng first.
Nian Jincheng rarely ate sweets and snacks since he was a child. He was concentrating on the battle situation and did not notice Chang'an asking for osmanthus cakes. Suddenly, he heard Chang'an say that Ning Jing invited him to have snacks. He was stunned for a moment and reached out to take the box, "Thank you!"
Chang'an hurriedly said that Nian Jincheng should take one piece, and the remaining piece was for Mu Fei.
Nian Jincheng used a handkerchief to pad it, took out a piece, and returned the box to Chang'an.
When Changan placed the snack box in front of Mu Fei and said respectfully, "Master, please enjoy", Mu Fei ignored him, not because of the sweet-scented osmanthus cake, but because he was looking at the ten-to-one battle in front of him with a shocked expression.
Changan stood up straight, looked carefully, and was shocked!
He only spent time to make sweet-scented osmanthus cake, and Su Liang had already knocked down three!
Although Su Liang's confidence not long ago made Mu Fei and Changan suspect that she was hiding her true strength.
But because of their understanding of Su Liang's past and their inherent prejudice against a young orphan, they actually felt that Su Liang had not yet fought with Mu Fei's subordinates, and she dared to ask for such a lion's mouth, which was a bit arrogant.
The dissatisfaction and anger that Mu Fei showed was also because although he forced Su Liang into his plan, he subconsciously did not believe how strong Su Liang could be.
Therefore, the arrogant Mu Fei felt that Su Liang's request was simply a provocation and overestimating his own abilities!
In fact, in Mu Fei's original plan, Su Liang had no ability to control the situation, but because of her hatred with the Wu family father and son, she was irreplaceable.
Mu Fei wanted his subordinates to not be so heavy-handed at that time, to create a chance for Su Liang to counterattack and escape, and even thought about how to guide them to act more realistically.
In short, Mu Fei insisted on looking for Su Liang, but he only treated her as a tool. Although he would not let Su Liang die for some reasons, he originally thought that Su Liang had to listen to his command and be controlled by him to complete the task.
As a result, Mu Fei was slapped in the face.
Nian Jincheng was very shocked.
The weak village girl in his memory suddenly turned into a beautiful and cold girl, which surprised him greatly.
Nian Jincheng had seen Su Liang riding a horse before, saving Mu Fei in a critical moment, and having superb medical skills, and he was impressed by her.
But he didn't see Su Liang's attack that time, he only saw the traitor's pierced knees and Su Liang's bloody double swords, and he didn't know Su Liang's strength.
Now, seeing is believing.
As a warrior, Nian Jincheng could see that Su Liang was not as imposing as ordinary masters because of her body shape and strength limitations, and at first glance, she looked very hard to fight.
After all, it was a one-on-ten, and the opponents were not weak.
But as time went on, it turned out that Su Liang had a hard time, but she was not suppressed!
Her mentality in the battle was too strong! It is extremely difficult to fight more bravely, especially when there is no advantage, it requires extremely clever tactics and reaction ability to fight with fewer people!
And these are the strengths of Su Liang, who has lived two lives, was a soldier in the previous life, and seized every opportunity to practice martial arts after traveling through time, and was carefully taught by Ning Jing!
It was agreed that this match was a "rehearsal" and that they would fight for real, but without real weapons.
No matter whether Su Liang or the opponent, they had to fight with the mentality of killing the opponent. Once they were hit in the vitals by the wooden weapons used, they would be "dead".
"Miss Su's moves change very quickly and are very tricky!" Chang'an couldn't help but comment.
"How is she compared to you?" Mu Fei asked.
As Mu Fei's close follower, Chang'an was naturally strong, but at this moment he couldn't say that Su Liang would definitely not be able to beat him.
After a moment of silence, Changan said seriously, "Only in terms of martial arts, I think I am stronger than Miss Su, but if we really fight, the result is hard to say. She has the ability to defeat the strong with the weak."
Mu Fei snorted coldly, "Strong or weak, it depends on victory or defeat!"
Changan nodded immediately, "Master is right. I hope to have a chance to spar with Miss Su in the future!"
"I underestimated her." Mu Fei looked at another subordinate being eliminated and sighed, "She dared to negotiate such a deal with me, and she really had enough confidence. If I had known she was so strong, I would not have frowned when she asked for those things."
Mu Fei is ambitious. If he wants to move up, he naturally needs the assistance of capable people.
He saw the potential of Su Liang. This girl hiding in a small mountain village is a real genius, whether in medicine or martial arts. And her most powerful is her mind.
Mu Fei approached Su Liang from the beginning, wanting to use her as a tool, and after returning to the capital, he wanted to deal with certain people in the name of redressing the Su family.
Even though Su Liang had surprised Mu Fei repeatedly during this period, he also wanted to win him over, but the "cooperation" he said was essentially treating Su Liang as a pawn, including this time.
Until this moment, Mu Fei began to regret that he should have listened to Chang'an and arranged someone to test Su Liang. If he had known that Su Liang was so powerful, he would have changed his approach on some things.
After the battle, Su Liang threw away the wooden sword in his hand, feeling that it was not useful at all, and Ning Jing was still more handy.
"Lord Mu, will I face such an opponent at that time?" Su Liang asked Mu Fei.
She had no other intentions, but just wanted to know if this "rehearsal" was different from the "actual combat" that would follow.
But to Mu Fei, it sounded like his men were all useless...
"There are only six people. Two of them are stronger than them, but you should be able to handle them." Mu Fei stood up and smiled, "Miss Su is so skilled at such a young age, I wonder who taught her?"
Ning Jing took out a knife and a wooden hairpin from nowhere and was carving seriously, as if it had nothing to do with him.
Su Liang chuckled, "I said I was self-taught, do you believe me, Lord Mu?"
Mu Fei glared at Su Liang, "Will you die if you tell me the truth?"
"Lord Mu is very generous." Su Liang looked serious, "This is absolutely the truth, my sincere words."
Mu Fei held his forehead, "As long as you help me solve the iron ore smuggling case, everything will be fine."
Su Liang heard that Mu Fei's attitude had changed, and knew the reason.
And she was going to take action this time, of course, not to help Mu Fei. The main thing was to make Wu Yun and Wu Huaian's crimes come to light. Su Liang hated the perverted father and son very much.
If there is any selfish motive, the person Su Liang wants to help is Nian Jincheng.
When Su Liang saw Nian Jincheng and Chang'an appear together yesterday and explained their purpose, he knew what Mu Fei was thinking.
Although Ning Jing did not say it, Su Liang had already guessed that he had a special relationship with Nian Jincheng. Nian Jincheng's impulsive questioning before also showed that he cared about Ning Jing very much.
In this case, Su Liang certainly did not want to see him tripped up by Mu Fei, so he helped him solve the problem.
And Ning Jing did not object to Su Liang's decision, which meant that he agreed.
After agreeing on the time of action and other details, Su Liang and Ning Jing left the county government and went to the house they bought in the county.
Mu Fei asked Chang'an to send a lot of food.
After Chang'an came back, he said in surprise, "Miss Su actually took the initiative to ask if she should wait for her to make meat patties and bring one back for the master to eat."
"Where are the meat patties?" Mu Fei asked.
Changan's face froze, "I think Miss Su might just be being polite, so..."
Mu Fei thought, "She has always been very polite to me. She didn't want me to see her true strength before, and now it's still a deal."
"Miss Su is kind-hearted. As long as the master does the right thing, she is willing to cooperate." Changan expressed his opinion.
Mu Fei's face darkened. This kind of person is simple, and it's true. He is the same as Nian Jinben. He is very useful at certain times, but he can't be completely controlled.
"After Su Liang leaves tonight, have someone keep an eye on Ning Jing. He hides deeper than Su Liang, let's see if he will be at ease staying at home." Mu Fei said, "Don't let him find out, and don't care if he goes out."
Chang'an's expression became serious, "Yes."
Mu Fei rubbed his forehead, "I still don't understand, how did the two of them get to Sujia Village?"
Chang'an thought about it seriously and said, "Maybe it's really like Miss Su said, their home in Sujia Village is a Feng Shui treasure land, which can change their fortunes!"
Mu Fei: ...
In the evening, Nian Jincheng came to find Mu Fei.
"I want to go secretly tonight to protect Miss Su." Nian Jincheng said seriously, "Although she is not weak, someone has to pick her up just in case."
Mu Fei looked at Nian Jincheng, smiling, "I have arranged everything. Your arm is injured, and Su Liang said that you can't fight for a month. If you have any accidents again, you will be useless."
Nian Jincheng nodded, "I know. If things go well, I don't need to fight with others. If I really want to fight, I can use my right hand. I always feel bad about putting Miss Su in danger. I can't do nothing here and wait for news."
Mu Fei snorted, "You can't really like that girl, right?"
Nian Jincheng shook his head, "I am just doing my job, and I don't have any other thoughts."
"Since you insist, go. Be careful, you are a favorite of my father, if something happens, I can't bear it." Mu Fei waved his hand.
Nian Jincheng's accident while doing his job is different from others who are fine but didn't do their job well. Mu Fei should be more or less responsible for the former, because he was in charge of the overall situation.
After Nian Jincheng got Mu Fei's approval, he secretly left the county government.
…
After making the last meat pie, Su Liang and Ning Jing were ready to eat.
Suddenly, they heard a noise in the backyard. The two looked at each other, Su Liang stood up, drew his knife and hid behind the door.
But Ning Jing picked up a meat pie and took a bite.
Su Liang: … Where is the tacit understanding? This man is more and more like the little white face she keeps…
The footsteps approached, Su Liang clenched the knife in his hand, ready to attack at any time, and heard a familiar voice from outside the door, "I am Nian Jincheng."
Su Liang was speechless, put away the knife, went back to sit down, and started eating. Ning Jing's friends, she didn't care.
Ning Jing certainly didn't care, holding a small knife, carefully cut the round meat pie into six equal pieces, picked up a piece with chopsticks, and it was much more convenient to eat.
Nian Jincheng, who was left outside the door, was embarrassed. The door was open, and he could see the two people enjoying the delicious food, and he felt deeply that he was not welcome.
It was Su Liang who spoke again, "General Nian trespassed into my house, what does that mean?"
"I told the Fourth Prince that I would secretly protect Miss Su tonight." Nian Jincheng didn't hear him come in, so he stood outside the door and spoke.
"Your arm is broken, are you sure you don't want me to protect you?" Su Liang asked back.
After a moment of silence, Nian Jincheng spoke again, "Mr. Ning...Mr. Ning, the Fourth Prince is likely to send someone to keep an eye on you. If you want to protect Miss Su, I can stay here for you."
Su Liang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the purpose of Nian Jincheng's sudden visit.
Seeing that Ning Jing was still too lazy to talk, Su Liang had to ask Nian Jincheng to come in and add a set of bowls and chopsticks for him.
Nian Jincheng was a little restrained, and then he heard Su Liang say, "I don't care what your relationship is, since you're here, don't be shy! Where's the energy you had when you questioned me aggressively?"
Nian Jincheng was even more embarrassed, "Sorry..."
Su Liang gave a piece of meat pie that belonged to Ning Jing to Nian Jincheng, and Ning Jing took away the meat from Su Liang's plate...
The atmosphere was a bit strange. Seeing that neither of them had the intention to talk to each other, Su Liang didn't want to speak.
The three of them had a quiet meal, and then Ning Jing went back to the room. After hesitating for a moment, Nian Jincheng got up and followed him.
When he entered the door, he heard Ning Jing say, "Take off your clothes."
Nian Jincheng reacted, took off his coat, and exchanged it with Ning Jing.
Ning Jing put on Nian Jincheng's clothes, took out a mask and put it on, and walked out. When he passed by, he said, "Wash the dishes, wash the pots, and clean the kitchen."
Nian Jincheng was a little confused. When he saw Ning Jing at the door, he blurted out, "I'm relieved to see you find a good home."
