Chapter 072: An Interest

Manager Xu was worried all the way, a little afraid that he would be punished if he bothered the castle master with something as trivial as choosing clothes. Even if he was not punished, he would be scolded. Who knows...

Jimo Wuxuan was not angry at all. He looked at all the clothes in front of him carefully, and finally pointed to the lavender dress and said coldly: "That's it."

"Yes." Manager Xu was a little puzzled. He didn't understand why the castle master wasn't angry, but he didn't dare to ask. He just kept his doubts in his heart.

Jimo Wuxuan knew very well what Manager Xu was thinking, but he didn't care and asked seriously: "How is the eldest lady's physical condition recently?"

"Everything is fine, madam. Her body has recovered to 70%, her complexion is good, and she is in good spirits."

"I purchased some thousand-year-old ginseng yesterday and had it stewed and delivered to the eldest lady."

"Yes." Manager Xu accepted the order and then stepped back. He was even more puzzled. The Lord's concern for the First Lady seemed to be beyond common sense. He had never seen the Lord care so much about a person.

Weird.

Jimo Wuming happened to walk in and heard clearly what Jimo Wuxuan had just said to Mr. Xu, so he jokingly said, "Brother, you are more and more concerned about your sister-in-law now. It's a holiday, it's

Didn’t you also forget about my younger brother?”

"How are things going?" Jimo Wuxuan was too lazy to talk nonsense to Jimo Wuming, and directly asked about business seriously. Little did he know that his non-answer was tantamount to acquiescence.

"I have personally taken action, and there has been nothing I can't do." Jimo Wuming looked confident, sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and then continued: "As you expected, Nong Kaishan

There is indeed a problem, and it is a big problem. He has swallowed up almost all the money earned by Dulin Ranch this year. He did not dare to swallow too much in the past few years, so we still see profits, plus Dulin Ranch Limo Castle

It’s far away and not too big, so we didn’t put too much effort there, so Nongkaishan has reaped the benefits for a few years. In the past few years, Nongkaishan has become more and more courageous. Last year, it was just swallowing

Half of the profits were swallowed up this year, using the excuse of an epidemic on the ranch as an excuse to cover up."

"How much has he eaten?" When Jimo Wuxuan heard this, his reaction was not big. His face still had the same glacial expression that he always had, but no one could see the fierceness under his eyes.

Mo Castle's money is not so delicious.

"In the past few years, the total is about 500,000 taels, which is not a lot. I have followed your instructions and did not deal with him immediately. Instead, I will wait for the annual stewards meeting."

"You should go back to your room and rest. The day after tomorrow is the emperor's birthday banquet, and you will have to enter the palace then."

Jimo Wuming was not surprised or interested in attending the emperor's birthday banquet. What interested him was other things. "Brother, the emperor must have specifically asked you to bring your sister-in-law to attend the banquet. You plan to bring your sister-in-law with you."

go?"

"Since this is a specific request, do you still need to ask more questions?" Jimo Wuxuan did not answer and asked indifferently.

"Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore. It's all up to you. I haven't been able to sleep well for a few days, so I will go back and sleep with him for two days and two nights."

Although Jimo Wuxuan did not answer Jimo Wuming's question just now, he had been thinking about this question in his heart.

He knew what Jimo Wuming wanted to ask. Shi Qingyun had reminded him before, and he himself knew the question, but he still hoped that Qian Diewu could stand on his side and keep some secrets for him.

I just don’t know if this hope is a luxury?

It would be great if she was completely his, not only her body, but also her heart.

Qian Diewu looked at the clothes Jimo Wuxuan chose for her. When she saw it before, she had no feeling at all, and she even didn't like it. But now that she looked at it, she found it very pleasing to the eye. The dazzling gold threads on the clothes no longer dazzled her.

, that faint purple color vaguely revealed indifference, she liked it.

"Madam, you have been staring at this dress in a daze for half an hour. Don't you like it?" Cuixiang has been standing next to her. When she saw Qian Diewu staring blankly at the dress for half an hour, she was a little worried about her, so she

Ask.

"It's nothing, I'm just admiring the embroidery work and tailoring on the clothes. I admire those embroiderers and tailors, but I can't believe how good their skills are?" Qian Diewu randomly found an excuse to explain her daze, not wanting anyone to know her.

What I am thinking about is Jimo Wuxuan. When he deceives others, he is also deceiving himself.

How could she possibly think about that annoying man?

Cuixiang stupidly believed what Qian Diewu said, without much doubt, and praised: "Of course, this dress was made by the clothing workshop of Mo Castle. I'm afraid there is no one in the world who can compare to Mo."

The castle's dressmaking shop makes better clothes."

"You little girl, you have only been to a few places, do you know how big the world is? Let me tell you, the world is huge, full of wonders, there is no eternal number one, sooner or later the strongest will be surpassed one day, so

Don’t be too extreme when looking at anyone or anything, you know?”

"I know, but Castle Mo is really number one in everything. This is true. The first and second castle masters insist on being number one no matter what they do."

"The things that Mo Castle ranks best in the world are all tangible, but for intangible things, they are probably the last."

"What are tangible and intangible things, do you not understand? Madam, you are so mysterious." The expression on Cuixiang's face became even more stupid, she had no idea what Qian Diewu was talking about.

Qian Diewu smiled slightly and did not answer immediately. Instead, she folded the clothes in her hands and put them in the cabinet herself. Then she explained: "Tangible things are visible things, and intangible things are invisible things."

, for example, money, money can be seen, so it is a tangible thing, and family affection, love, and friendship, for example, are invisible, so it is an intangible thing. Do you understand? "

"Still do not understand."

"When you grow up and see more things, you will naturally understand."

"Oh." 13acv.

At this time, a maidservant came in with a bowl of ginseng soup, respectfully presented it to Qian Diewu, bowed her head and said, "Madam, this is Millennium Ginseng Chicken Soup. The Lord of the Castle ordered me to stew it for Madam to drink."

"Thousand-year-old ginseng chicken soup." Qian Diewu was extremely surprised. She stared at the small bowl of chicken soup, thinking about the value of it, and didn't even dare to drink it.

Thousand-year-old ginseng is a priceless thing. Her body is almost in good condition. Wouldn't it be a waste to drink it?

"Yes, a few days ago, the Lord of the Castle ordered people to go to Tianshan Mountain to purchase ginseng. He got several thousand-year-old ginseng plants and ordered them to stew them to replenish the body of the eldest lady. Please drink it while it's hot, eldest lady."

"Ah..." Do you want to replenish her body? She has taken enough supplements recently. If she continues to replenish her body, won't she get a nosebleed?

But this Jimo Wuxuan also cares about her!

Qian Diewu smiled unconsciously when she thought of Jimo Wuxuan's concern. Her heart felt warm. All she could think about was Jimo Wuxuan's concern for her. However, as she was thinking about it, she suddenly thought of a sentence: "I'll raise you later."

"I'll eat you again after I'm fat and in vain." Just because of these words, all her good mood disappeared in an instant.

He gave her so many supplements. Could it be that he wanted to make her fat and fat before eating them?

Thinking of this possibility, Qian Diewu was particularly repelled by the ginseng chicken soup in front of her. She refused and said, "I just had dinner and am feeling a little tired now. You can bring this chicken soup to the Lord of the Castle."

"Madam, this is what the Lord of the Castle ordered to stew for you to drink." The servant was so embarrassed that she still held the chicken soup and placed it in front of Qian Diewu, not daring to give it to Jimo Wuxuan to drink.

"Then it's reasonable for me to order you to send this bowl of chicken soup to the Lord of the Castle!"

"Madam, if the Lord knows that you didn't drink this bowl of chicken soup, he will definitely think that the slaves did not do well and Madam doesn't like it, so the Lord will punish the slaves. Madam, please, please give me the chicken soup."

Drink it."

"How can there be such a saying? Whether I drink or not is my own business. What does it have to do with you?"

Cuixiang knew the reason for this, so she answered Qian Diewu, "Madam, you'd better drink the chicken soup, otherwise Cuizhu will definitely be punished. No matter what the reason is, if the eldest lady didn't drink the chicken soup, it's Cuizhu."

If Zhu neglects his duty, the Lord of the Fortress will definitely punish those who fail to do so without mercy."

Listening to what Cuixiang said, Qian Diewu had to drink it even if he didn't want to drink it. He stared at the bowl of chicken soup with an unhappy expression. After a long time, he reached out and picked it up, drank it all in one go, and then put the empty bowl back with a trace of anger.

, cursed in a low voice: "What a rotten person, you have to be punished like this, you are really a devil."

It's over now. If you continue to drink like this, sooner or later you will turn into a fat and white person and be eaten by someone. It's always harmful.

When Cuizhu saw Qian Diewu drinking the chicken soup, she breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face and said gratefully: "Thank you, madam."

"Okay, all of you, please retreat. I will stay by myself for a while and then rest." Qian Diewu shook her head helplessly, not thinking too much about the troublesome things, and asked the maids to retreat, intending to be alone.

"Yes." Cuixiang and Cuizhu responded in unison, and then retreated.

Qian Diewu sat alone by the window, in a daze with a disturbed mind, staring at the scenery outside the window, from the setting sun to the night falling to the bright moon, and unknowingly she climbed on the window and fell asleep.

Although it is summer, the wind at night is quite cool and makes people feel slightly chilly.

Jimo Wuxuan quietly came to see Qian Diewu at night, but unexpectedly saw her sleeping on the window. He frowned and became very angry. He stood up, walked over, gently picked her up and sent her to the

He went to bed and covered her with a quilt, then left a light kiss on her lips and scolded her in a low voice, "Woman, you are so disobedient. I told you to take a good rest, but you are lying on the window."

Go to sleep and I’ll settle the score with you tomorrow.”

After saying that, he touched her lips again, then stood up and left.
