Seeing that Feng Ling Xi's expression wasn't good, everyone was silent for a moment. Then, they turned to look at Chen Mu.

With the culprit right here, he had to find her in a fit of anger.

Feng Ling's heart was moved as she looked at Chen Mu Mu Mu, "I was kind enough to find a place for you to rest, yet you were rejected by them. What do you mean by this?"

"They are indeed unsuitable to stay in the general's estate." Chen Mu Mu Mu spoke softly, "We are just commoners, it is easy for us to be frightened by the formalities of the general's manor."

Nonsense, she was just a martial arts family, a bunch of unarmed men who drank and ate huge mouthfuls of wine while loudly speaking.

Feng Lingxi rolled her eyes. "A proper reason."

This was obviously a fake answer, but hearing it made her heart clench tightly.

Chen Mu paused for a moment. "I made a trip to the Prime Minister's Estate and obtained a medical fee of fifty silver taels."

"And?"

"We can be self-reliant and self-sufficient." Chen Mu Mu smiled. "We are just commoners. In order to live a life, we must be busy. If we disturb the peace of the general's manor, we will be guilty of a crime."

However, the general's manor was heavily guarded, and not everyone was like her, with free access.

Feng Ling'er was silent for a moment, then said: "Alright, it's up to you."

"Don't be upset." Chen Mu Mu Mu patted her on the shoulder, "Since you have the heart to do so, I'm still very happy."

There was still some time before night, so Chen Mu Mu Mu didn't need to go out to accompany Chen Qingyun and the rest to tidy up the courtyard.

Seeing that the Wang Jiang Lou house was in such a terrible condition, Feng Ling Xi thought that Chen Mu and the rest were cleaning up too slowly, so she went to the general's manor and called over a dozen helpers.

The guards of the general's residence were all old veterans of the battlefields. They had extraordinary strength and had endured hardships.

The more people there were, the stronger they would be. It wasn't even nightfall yet, and the entire backyard of the restaurant was almost all cleaned up.

Even though there were holes and air leaks, at least they were not completely missing places to stand on.

The bed in the room could still be slept in if it was simply made.

Chen Mu Mu Mu expressed his satisfaction.

"Do you really want to sleep here?"

After tidying up the restaurant, the atmosphere in the restaurant was still exceptionally shabby. Feng Lingxi felt disgust towards this.

"We can't sleep on the streets." Rong Rongliu quickly replied.

While she was working, Chen Mu Mu Mu had already talked with her friends. Their previous Wang Jiang Lou had already been destroyed, so it was now difficult for them to live any longer. Everyone had to work together to overcome these difficulties … Earning money together.

As the manager of the restaurant, Chen Mu Mu Mu still gave the butler Rong Rongliu a chance. She took out all one hundred and eighty silver and gave it all to Rong Rongliu. From now on, all the food and drinks would belong to Rong Rongliu.

Thus, the pressure on Madam Guan, Rong Rongliu, increased.

One hundred and eighty silver taels for a living in the capital was not much. Other than the renovation and arrangement of the new restaurant, all the family members wanted to eat and drink.

Therefore, Rong Rongliu, who was determined to live frugally, even if he had to live in this crappy place, would definitely not go out and stay in an inn.

So many people! A night's worth of silver taels! A prodigal son!

With the money in the hands of the Guan Jia Village, if Rong Rongliu wanted to keep it, no one dared to say anything.

Feng Ling'er helplessly sighed and patted Chen Mu Mu Mu's shoulder. "If you don't have enough money, I can lend it to you."

"If you give it to me, I'll be happy to give it to you." Even if he borrowed it, he would still have to return it. It was too troublesome.

Feng Lingxi went silent for a moment, "My money is being controlled by this old lady. I don't have any face left over from eating, drinking, and playing. I also don't have any money with me after I send the bill to the general's estate."

Everyone was silent.

A bunch of paupers.

When the sky turned dark, they naturally went back to their own homes.

Feng Lingxi had been arguing with the Wang Jiang Lou for a while, afraid that the parents would be worried, so she hurriedly returned.

Chen Qingyun stood at the door, looking at the street where no traces of Feng Ling Sheng could be seen, in a daze.

A 15 or 16 year old youth was at the point where his heart was moved. The relationship had just begun, and it was uncontrollable.

Ning Yuan could not help but give him a blow, "Qingyun, the General's Estate will not take this son-in-law of yours. "Don't even think about eating the meat of a swan. It can't."

Rong Rongliu nodded his head, "Yes, the two of you. One is in the sky, the other is in the ground.

Xiao Mao also interrupted: "She doesn't like you at all. She didn't even look at you once when she entered the door and left."

He felt as if his heart had been stabbed a few times. It was so painful.

How can you all still be good friends with your venomous mouths!?

The injured youth who had just begun to have feelings for her looked weakly at his sister. "Mu Mu, they're all rubbing salt on my wounds."

Ask for comfort, ask for caress, ask for mercy.

Chen Mu Mu Mu's actions of tidying up the windows paused as she shot a glance at him. "Serves you right."

The young man's heart was hurt even more. His voice was faint, but it carried a hint of resentment.

"They don't understand me, and you don't understand me. I'm so tired."

She was still annoyed.

Chen Mu Mu snorted, "I won't laugh at your way of looking at people, but you still need to know your basics. If there's someone you like with your Feng Lingxi, why are you sticking it up? If you don't slap your face, who else can it be?"

What a venomous mouth.

"You were right when you said you liked someone."

"But liking a married woman is definitely wrong!"

"Um, Young Miss Feng isn't married yet."

"It's about time." After which, Chen Mu Mu Mu was stunned for a moment before the light in her eyes deepened by several folds.

Almost getting married... Who would Feng Lingxi marry?

And now, who was the one that made Feng Ling Xi's heart belong?

His head hurt at the thought of that name.

In the end, she did care.

"Mu Mu." Upon seeing Chen Mu's expression darken, the crowd was slightly worried.

"I'm fine." Chen Mu regained his senses and was silent for a moment. Then he cautiously said, "Next time, stay far away from Feng Ling Xing."

Everyone: "..."

He had just accepted Feng Lingxi's help and turned around to tell them to stay away from him. Was this really okay?

Chen Mu Mu Mu didn't explain, but said, "She's no longer the pure Feng Ling Shi that she used to be. There are some things you need to remember, don't tell everything to Feng Ling Xi."

Everyone: "..."

Wasn't their relationship just now pretty good? They were talking and laughing, but the moment they turned their heads, they could no longer recognize each other. This change was too quick.

Chen Mu Mu ignored the gazes of the crowd as he turned to Ning Yuan and said, "Big Brother Ning, pay more attention to us in the next few days. I have a feeling that someone is following us."

After returning from the Ox Head Mountain, she felt that there were many people and things that had changed in the capital. She did not want herself to become someone's weakness and chess piece.

Hearing this, Ning Yuan's eyes turned deep as he nodded his head heavily.

"I will."

Did someone actually spy on them from right under their eyes?

It seemed that his sense of existence had been too low recently.

The sense of danger came too suddenly.

The atmosphere was heavy. It was so stifling that it was hard to breathe.

Rong Rongliu couldn't take it anymore and shouted: "Let's not talk about these depressing things, let's go eat dinner first."

A night passed quickly.

The next day, after getting up, Chen Mu Mu Mu thought about Su Yanyan's promise and quickly ate two mouthfuls of rice, then ran to the entrance of the Prime Minister's Residence and squatted under the gazes of "kids are all naughty".

If Su Yanyan wanted to enter the palace, he would have to walk through the main entrance and wait outside the door of the residence. Naturally, he knew if Su Yanyan still remembered to keep his promise.

However, she hid it well enough and was discovered by the sharp-eyed guard.

The guard was still the same group as yesterday's group of two. When he saw that she did not speak harshly of them, he was slightly baffled. "Didn't I tell you before that you are not to wander around the Prime Minister's Estate? Why have you come again today?"

If the trail was found, even a child could not completely avoid responsibility.

Moreover, she was already thirteen years old. In ancient times, a man and a woman maturing early, thirteen years old was just like a child in the eyes of these two brothers, but not in the eyes of others.

Chen Mu Mu Mu smiled lightly as he braced himself to spout nonsense, "Yesterday, after seeing the princess, I was panicking. I don't know what's going on with the princess, so I came to investigate."

She scratched her head, feeling a little embarrassed, "But the gate of the Prime Minister's Estate is too tight, and I don't dare to enter."

Of course, the gate to the Prime Minister's Estate wasn't one that could be entered just because someone wanted to.

The two guards looked at each other with understanding in their eyes.

One of them laughed and said, "If you come here to investigate, there's no need to be so secretive. The princess said that as long as a doctor wishes to enter, they can be released at any time."

The other one also laughed, "Look at you, you little radish. Let us forget that you are also a doctor. Since you are so worried about the princess' illness, let's go in and take a look ourselves."

The dignified Prime Minister's Estate truly entered through the door casually.

Sometimes, people's mentality was like Zhuge Liang singing the song of an empty city. It was fine for the city gates to close, but the city gates to open up the city gates for the citizens to relax.

This attitude of the Prime Minister's guard made Chen Mu feel extremely guilty.

Therefore, he shook his head and said, "I just want to know about the princess' situation. I have no intention of entering. My two brothers …"

"They're already here, what are you dawdling for?" Before he could finish his words, a girl's voice interrupted him.

Chen Mu Mu looked up, who else could it be other than the servant that stood by Su Yanyan's side?

Was she waiting for her?

Su Yanyan knew she was coming?

His calculations were quite f * cking accurate.

However, given the current situation, it was impossible for him to escape. Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu could only brace herself and face it head-on.

"Thank you for leading the way, Miss."

Following the maidservant through the entrance of the Prime Minister's Estate, Chen Mu Mu Mu was once again shocked by the golden splendor and grandeur of the Residence of Prime Minister.

He didn't think much of money before, but now that he was poor and had seen so many valuable things in this corrupt official's residence, what was he going to do about it? He really wanted to dig up two pieces of gold and jade.

Thankfully, he still had his rationality. Glancing at the servant girl beside him, Chen Mu Mu Mu retracted the strange greedy thoughts in his heart.

No matter how rich the prime minister's residence was, it would not be squandered so easily. If the bricks were made of gold and the pillars were jade, the prime minister's mansion would have long since been pried apart by someone.

As the Greatest Official in the world, Su Huguo would definitely be aware of this sense of danger.

As a result, the gold on the walls and the jade on the pillars were probably all fake.

"Lady Chen." The young maid looked at her surroundings with a strange look in her eyes. She patted her shoulder and said, "Stop looking around. If you discover any secrets, the prime minister will be unhappy."
