Miss Mu and the Canary

Chapter 58

After scolding Song Youcheng, Uncle Song said: "In short, this is the end of the matter, I just ask Axuan to be considerate and considerate of everything, and the Song family will definitely urge Song Youcheng to correct it..."

The implication is that you don't want to divorce?

Withdrawing his mind of walking away, Mu Xing was about to speak, but Song Youcheng, who was beside him, suddenly knelt down, startling everyone.

Song Youcheng said: "Father, aunt, I am sorry for my parents, uncles and aunts, and even more sorry for Axuan. I am ashamed of the world, but I can't turn around! Now the only way to save the two families is to divorce, and Axuan's reputation…"

Before he finished speaking, Uncle Song was already furious: "What nonsense are you talking about!" He got up and wanted to make a move, Mu Yun who was sitting nearby quickly stood up and stopped him, and everyone continued to comfort him.

Uncle Song said repeatedly: "Don't stop me, let me kill this evil son, and he will be clean!"

In the chaos, Uncle Mu, who never spoke, said, "Okay! Shu Ye, I'm not going to persuade you, Uncle Song!"

The aunt also said: "That's right, hurry up and pull it away. You child, you Uncle Song is angry, you are confused, you are messing around like this, don't persuade, but follow suit!"

Mu Yun was named inexplicably, and he had no time to be wronged, so he could only persuade Uncle Song to sit down.

Although Mu Fuqian's words were directed at Mu Yun, they fell into the ears of the Song family, and they gradually calmed down.

After coughing and coughing, Uncle Mu said: "Master Song, don't worry about getting angry. The matter has come to an end, and everything depends on how we Mu Xing and Youcheng decide. Regarding young people, it is useless for us elders to talk too much. They can decide for themselves." He said, looking at Mu Xing.

Everyone's eyes also came together.

Facing the burning eyes of the Song family, Mu Xing said word by word: "Uncle, even if it's like this, it's useless to force it. My marriage contract with Youcheng, let's let it go."

As soon as the words fell, Brother Song suddenly asked: "Miss Mu, forgive me, why are you so calm when you hear about You Cheng? Did you know about this a long time ago?"

After a moment of silence, Mu Xing just nodded.

Mrs. Mu was shocked and said, "What...Ah Xuan, you already knew? Why didn't you tell us?"

Uncle Song also said angrily: "You knew about this a long time ago? You guys, how long are you going to keep it a secret?! Are you going to keep it so that Man Wenjiang knows about this scandal!"

Seeing that he was so angry, Aunt Mu hurriedly said: "Master Song, don't be in a hurry. I think we, Axuan, just knew about it, right? Young lady, where did you encounter such a thing before, you will inevitably feel flustered, and it's okay if you don't make a decision. Accusable, isn't it?"

Mu Xing also said: "Yes, I just found out not long ago. Seeing this situation now, it's useless to force it. I hope uncle will do it."

Uncle Song couldn't sit still angrily, and wanted to say something more, but the uncle interrupted at the right time: "Naturally, there is no need to force this matter. Ah Xuan just came back, and her father didn't know about it yet, so he needs to think more about it. , Master Song, let's delay for a few days before making a decision." After speaking, he got up and asked Uncle Song to move into the study, saying that he had some gossip.

This move is to ease the atmosphere and also to give Mu Xing room to consider.

Although Master Song was angry, he also knew that no matter what the outcome of this matter was, he must not hurt the harmony of the two families.In this way, the Song family got up and followed their uncle.

As soon as the Song family left, Mrs. Mu scolded: "You child, you don't discuss such a big matter with your elders after you know it, and you hide it quietly by yourself. What do you think!"

Knowing that he was wrong, Mu Xing didn't dare to talk to him.He could only hug his mother with a low eyebrow.

The aunt on the side asked Mu Yun again: "And you child, did you already know about it? You really should explain it to us anyway, and you can prepare in advance for what to do, so as not to cause trouble It's so ugly. Ah Xuan doesn't understand, don't you understand for such an adult? Why don't you hurry up and go with your father, what are you doing here guarding us?"

Mu Yun was scolded innocently again, but he didn't dare to reply, so he had to go out with a bitter face.

Looking at his mother's face, he knew that he couldn't tell the truth now, so Mu Xing could only pick it up and say it didn't matter.She said: "Auntie, don't blame brother, he beat you up when he found out about it. But I think it's not easy for Song Youcheng, so I want to discuss it later, but I didn't expect Mr. Liu to be like this Say it without hesitation..."

The aunt shook her head when she heard it: "You silly girl, he did such a thing behind your back, and you still help him hide it."

"Yeah, I never imagined that You Cheng, who looks so well-behaved, would be like those dudes." Madam Mu also sighed.

Mu Xing had already prepared a draft of the story about this matter, and she said: "Mother, aunt, you don't know. The young lady that Youcheng and him are dating is really in love. If I want to marry him, what can I do? Even If you change your mind, can you just pretend nothing happened? Besides, there are so many lovely people in the world, why should I marry someone who doesn't love me?"

As she said that, she also bowed her head, her eyes blushing: "It's just that my daughter is unworthy, and she will make her parents sad and the family criticized."

Wiping away her tears, Mrs. Mu sighed: "What kind of face is shameful? You are a mother's flesh and blood. As long as you can be happy, it is more important than any face. If you want to divorce, your father and I will support it. You have been wronged."

"It's just that you Cheng was chosen by your aunt for you. When she was dying, she only cared about your grandma and you. Who would have thought that this child, You Cheng, would do such a thing. If I usually If Li has some snacks, there won't be such a thing..." After speaking, Mrs. Mu began to cry again.

The aunt comforted and said: "Don't be too sad, the matter has come to this point, it is very good to rein in the precipice before the worst situation. If people's hearts are like this, even if there is no such thing, I am afraid that the future will not be peaceful. Ah Xuan just said That's right, our Mu family's daughter has no reason to rush."

Just as he was talking, his uncle returned to the living room and said that he had sent the Song family away, and asked Mu Xing how to make a decision, and Mu Xing told him what he thought.

The uncle sighed and said, "It's best if you can think about it. Your father thinks the same way. When your father comes back, discuss it with him. If the final decision is made, please ask Uncle Song and your relatives to make it clear. Return the deed and the token, and this matter will be over. But I have something to do recently, so let's wait for your father to come back to preside over the matter. And the most important thing, don't rush to tell the old lady, she and Negative Xue has a single mind, and he only remembers the big things about you brothers and sisters, if he finds out at this time, I'm afraid it won't be good."

Everyone nodded yes.

When Mu Yiqian came back, Mrs. Mu and Mu Xing told him about the divorce. Mu Yiqian couldn't help being angry for a while, but his attitude was the same as Mrs. Mu's, that is, Mu Xing must not be wronged.

That being the case, the matter of retiring the engagement is completely settled.

In the early morning of the second day, Mrs. Mu sent someone to Mr. Lushui's house, and wanted to ask Mr. Lushui to come and do a divination.

Mrs. Mu rubbed her temples, and said: "I've thought about it, when you got engaged to You Cheng, Mr. Lu Shui's hexagrams were clearly good, why did something happen suddenly? You must ask Mr. to do the math again. "

Mu Xing never believed in the magic fortune teller, so he only said after hearing the words: "Doesn't this mean that his calculations are inaccurate? Mother, you forgot, when I just came back, didn't he still say that I would have a bloody calamity. Now I No, it's still pretty good, it can be seen that this old magic stick is not allowed..."

"Don't talk nonsense." Madam Mu glared at her, "Is this kind of talk also allowed to talk nonsense? Why don't you drink water and swallow it back."

Mu Xing curled his lips indifferently, picked up the milk and swallowed all the words.

After breakfast, Mu Xing accompanied Mrs. Mu to wait for Mr. Lushui in the living room.

Still thinking about the matter with Shu Wan, Mu Xing looked at Mrs. Mu and whispered: "Mother, what happened yesterday all started because of Song Youcheng's empathy, but in fact, I can't say that I like him very much. You Look, you and my father, my aunt and uncle, got married because of mutual affection. If I can meet someone I really like after I retire. If, if her family background is not as strong as the Song family, it won't matter. As orthodox as the Song family..."

Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Mu sighed, and said: "Actually, I talked with your father for a long time last night. When we agreed to get engaged, we just thought that You Cheng was the child we grew up with, and we knew it well. As for what Family background and financial resources, although our Mu family is only a middle-class family, we do not lack that support after all."

"But even though I was so troublesome, I never expected such a thing to happen. In the final analysis, even the best people will change. You Cheng will change his mind. After all, it is because you have been abroad for so many years. You are all young children, and everything you see is new. How can we talk about unswerving determination? This year is already different from ours then."

Rubbing Mu Xing's hand, Mrs. Mu was very emotional: "So, from now on, if you can meet someone you really like, we don't need him to be so rich and ambitious, these are all empty. As long as If he likes you and treats you sincerely, he won't do anything else."

"Well, I know." Rubbing on Mrs. Mu's shoulder, Mu Xing thought silently, Shu Wan is like this, he likes me and treats me sincerely.Even if she wants to hide and escape, I know that all the affection she can give is with me.

In this world of turmoil, she is the only one who bumps into my eyes.

After waiting for half a day, the sent personnel rushed back, only to know that Mr. Lu Shui wandered away, leaving only a hexagram, and ordered him to send it.

Mrs. Mu took a look at the hexagrams, and saw the words on the paper: "Be careful not to fall into the trap of the past, rather change the course and make another change. Happiness does not know how time passes, so be vigilant and not be careless."*

After checking it over and over again, she was sure there was no comment. Mrs. Mu asked the footman, "What's the meaning of this? Did Mr. Lu Shui have any other explanations?"

The servant shook his head and said, "No, the people in Mr.'s house said that there is no other explanation for what's 'foolish and incomprehensible'."

Mu Xing said from the side: "I'll just say this god...Mr. Lu Shui is playing tricks. He must have run away wrapped in clothes as soon as he heard that I was going to divorce, afraid of being smashed on the signboard."

Glancing at her, Mrs. Mu said: "I don't think this hexagram is a good idea. Your father and I will deal with the divorce in the next few days. You stay at home and don't run around. Do you hear me?"

Mu Xing pouted and agreed, but in the afternoon, he still secretly changed into men's clothes and slipped out.

The Song family's bracelet is still in Shu Wan's place. It was inconvenient for Mu Xing to take it back, but now I think I should take it back.If you want to end the engagement, then you should get rid of it cleanly, and it will be her own wish to give Shu Wan another one at that time.

What's more, on the day when the big candle was lit, Shu Wan was clearly concerned about the engagement, but now that the engagement is broken off, of course he should tell her.

In the end, hum, Sun Yimin was staring at him, shouldn't she be on the lookout?

It was already five o'clock when he went out, Mu Xing hurriedly went to the jewelry store, wanting to buy another piece of jewelry for Bai Yan.Unexpectedly, the shop that often provided jewelry to Mu's family was not very good today. She picked it out for a long time, but she still felt that it was not eye-catching.

I went to a few other stores and looked at it, but I was still not satisfied.After a flash of inspiration, when Bulova chose a Kun watch, it was almost seven o'clock.

Sitting in a rickshaw bumping all the way to the inside and outside of Yuejiang, Mu Xing glanced at it out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly remembered the shortcut that Bai Yan had taken with her before, which seemed to be closer than taking the rickshaw on the main road.

Thinking of this, she simply paid the bill, put the watch box in the pocket of her jacket, and walked into the alley alone.

Outside the white houses, the spotlights flickered endlessly, rendering the sky an ambiguous smoky blue, which weighed heavily on the top of the head.

Mu Xing walked behind the noise, only separated by a wall, but there were two voices.The smell of fine dining and snacks wafted out the rear window, mixed with the smell of dirty excrement.The obscenity. Ci Langyu was higher and higher for a while, accompanied by the cry of the night cat, showing a sense of wonder.

While driving, she couldn't help thinking about what Bai Yan would think when she wandered in this corridor in the past.

The sky was still struggling to get dark. There was no light in the path, and it was covered by houses on both sides, so it was dim.As the noise became more and more complicated, the silence in the trail gradually appeared.

In the midst of the noise, Mu Xing suddenly heard the sound of a stone being kicked behind him.

Um?Are there other people who also took shortcuts, or are they prostitutes who came to the alley to relieve themselves?

She thought about it casually at first, but gradually, an inexplicable uneasiness surged into her heart.

There is more than one person behind.

The habit of observing the patient's state all the year round made her keenly hear the sound of continuous breathing, either behind her was an asthmatic patient, or there was more than one person.

Is Xiaojie going to form a clique these days?

Uneasy in her heart, Mu Xing subconsciously accelerated her pace, but soon she found that the people behind her also accelerated to catch up.Footsteps, which were not clear at first, kicked up, hitting one after another in the narrow alley, like a violent and exciting symphony.

What are they going to do?

She first thought of the robbery case mentioned by Tang Yu before, but she felt that the robbery case was fabricated by Tang Yu before.The guard booths in this area are mainly concentrated at the intersection, if you just want to rob, why bother with her for so long?

If it's something else...could it be that mysterious lady from before?

Before he could think about it carefully, the movement behind him became louder and louder. Mu Xing suddenly remembered that Bai Yan once said that there was a long-abandoned garden in front of him. If they wanted to do something...

As soon as he raised his head, he caught a glimpse of a black figure flashing in front of him from the corner of his eye. For a moment, all the blood in Mu Xing's body poured into his brain, and his thinking went blank for a moment.But soon, she saw that the man was just peeing on the wall.

Most importantly, the back door that this person opened was not closed!

Seeing the faint yellow light emanating from that door, Mu Xing's heart suddenly beat violently like a heavy hammer.

She forced herself to be calm and kept walking forward.Just as Mu Xing walked over, the man shook his legs and pulled up his pants.

The moment the man turned around, Mu Xing strode over and hugged him.

"Who are you—"

"Pee, you!" His heart was beating violently, and Mu Xing said loudly, "Let's go in together!"

The footsteps behind him sped up suddenly, before the man could react, Mu Xing pushed him into the door, closed the door with his backhand, and at the same time kept running inside.

"Who are you, you are not allowed to come in here!" The man was confused and wanted to hold her back, but just as he stretched out his hand, the wooden door behind him was kicked open.

"stop!"

Mu Xing ran forward without looking back, but what she broke into was also a brothel, and before she ran to the front hall, people who heard the movement at the back door had already blocked her.

"Where did you come from! How dare you break into my shop!"

Attacking back and forth, seeing that the road ahead was blocked, in a panic, Mu Xing had no choice but to walk around the table in the back hall, then rushed out of the kicked wooden door, and as soon as his feet stepped on the stone road, he ran non-stop .

Although she was back in the alley again, this detour bought her a little time, and she also saw that the people chasing her were all dressed in black and uniform, so they must not be gangsters running around and committing crimes So simple.

"Stop!" There was a chasing sound coming from behind. Naturally, it was impossible for Mu Xing to stop. Fortunately, she usually likes to exercise, and she ran for a while, but she was not chased.

And during their chase, no one in the white houses on both sides put their heads out to take a look.

Seeing that the abandoned garden that he passed by was getting closer and closer, Mu Xing decided to jump over the wall and run into the garden. Taking advantage of the chaos, he ran to the security office on the other side of the street. Maybe there was still a glimmer of life.

But before she ran over, gunshots sounded behind her!

The sound of breaking wind rang in her ears, and she saw with her own eyes how a stone wall beside her exploded, and the scattered lime almost dazzled her eyes.

However, she had no choice but to step on the garden wall, she climbed up with both hands, rolled and stretched her abdomen, and the whole person had already jumped onto the top of the wall.But at the same time, a tearing pain hit the curly waist, and Mu Xing lost his strength for a moment, and fell into the wall suddenly.
