There is no way. Now it is not like before. Li Mofu now has too deep feelings for these two cats. If the Marquis's Mansion really wants to kill Daju, he will definitely not be happy.
Nanny Liang's eyes wandered for a moment, but she still comforted him, "It's okay, sir. This is the Marquis's residence after all. The guests should at least give the Marquis some face. I don't think he will mind."
Li Mofu thought of the woman screaming and it didn't look like she would not care.
Daju was dissatisfied and continued to stay in Li Mofu's arms. Even though Li Mofu was still having wild thoughts about it, he struggled to get off the ground.
Li Mofu gathered his scattered thoughts and watched Daju jump down and run away. He couldn't help but feel that Daju was a heartless kitten.
But it's okay if it has no conscience. It's just a cat. How can it know all those twists and turns? It's good enough that it knows how to run.
In this way, Li Mofu sat in the hall with an uneasy mood. Later, Guozi came and advised him to go back to the house to rest, but he remained indifferent. He felt that if something really happened and the Marquis's Mansion came to catch his cat, he would cry, make a fuss, or even hang himself. Anyway, his life would be over.
After Mo Yi knew about it, he quietly went to the front yard to look for Lu Mingyun, but he never came back. This was not a good sign.
He waited from the sunny afternoon until the sun set, and from the sun set until the night fell. It was not until the end of the birthday banquet that Mo Yi brought back a piece of news. The woman Daju caught was the Crown Princess. Although the Crown Prince did not care, the Marquis of Wu'an asked him to take Li Mofu to the ancestral hall now.
“......Ah? Me, going to the ancestral hall?” Li Mofu pointed at himself and asked.
Mo Yi sighed, his face a little gloomy, and nodded, "Yes, the Marquis invites Master Li to the ancestral hall."
Li Mofu looked at Guozi and then at Nanny Liang uneasily. He stood up in surprise, "That's not the case. She ran into the backyard by herself. Who knows what she came here for..."
"Mr. Li, don't worry. The young master is also in the ancestral hall." Mo Yi said helplessly.
Li Mofu was even more confused. This ancestral hall belonged to the Lu family. What was he, an outsider, doing there? If there was to be a punishment, then Lu Mingyun should be punished. It was the same thing anyway.
"......Can I not go?" Li Mofu was intimidated.
Nanny Liang went up and patted Li Mofu's back soothingly, saying, "It's okay, sir. The young master is here. Since the Marquis asked you to go, then go."
"The Second Young Master's wife is here too." Mo Yi also said.
Li Mofu covered his face, his heart finally giving way. What should he do? Although he knew that he would most likely not be "physically punished", what if Wu Anhou asked him to hand over the orange? He didn't want to...
"Young Master..." Guozi looked at Li Mofu with some guilt. He didn't want Li Mofu to go see the Marquis either.
Li Mofu pursed his lips and blinked hard a few times. He suppressed his uneasiness and said unhappily, "The Crown Princess clearly wanted to sneak into the backyard. Her motives were not pure. Why should I be called in for a lecture?"
No one answered him and the hall fell silent.
In the end, Li Mofu followed Mo Yi. This was the first time he appeared in other places in the Marquis' Mansion so openly.
Four or five servants stood guarding the ancestral hall, one of whom was Mo Zhu. As soon as Mo Yi and Li Mofu arrived, a middle-aged man approached them and whispered, "I'll take them in. You wait outside."
Mo Yi did not follow him in. Li Mofu was led into the ancestral hall by the middle-aged man. The hall was brightly lit. Two chairs were moved in from the front. Marquis Wu'an and the old lady sat on them, while the two Lu brothers and Wang Ruiyan knelt in front of the hall.
Li Mofu was stunned when he saw this scene, thinking, is this matter really that serious? Even if we take a step back, it was the Crown Princess who was looking for trouble!
"Master, I've brought the person here." The middle-aged man said loudly, and then whispered to Li Mofu, "Kneel down quickly and call me Marquis."
Li Mofu was stunned for a moment, then he knelt down with a plop. He was unprepared for kneeling because he had never done it before. His knees hurt. "My Lord."
The atmosphere in the ancestral hall suddenly became awkward, and the middle-aged man quickly left and closed the door.
Li Mofu was only two meters away from Lu Mingyun and others, but after he knelt down, he kept staring at the floor and didn't dare to look anywhere else, so he didn't notice the twitching corners of Lu Mingyun's mouth. Lu Mingyun's legs were not numb originally, but after Li Mofu's knock, they became numb.
The old lady sat in the ancestral hall and sighed clearly. Today was supposed to be her birthday party, but something like this happened. She felt tired just thinking about it, so she said tiredly, "I'm tired. You can decide how to punish me."
"Yes, mother," said Wu'an Hou.
As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady called out two names, and two little girls came in from outside the door, bowed respectfully, and then helped the old lady up and left.
Li Mofu stared at the floor the whole time with an expressionless face, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, as if the person kneeling there was not him.
"Is the cat in the mansion yours?" Wu'an Hou asked. Although he didn't mention the name, Li Mofu knew that he was asking him.
"Yes." Li Mofu said as he prostrated himself on the ground, making a gesture as if to say, "I am guilty, I am guilty of a heinous crime, I plead guilty."
"Do you know everything that happened today?" Wu'an Hou asked again.
Before Li Mofu could answer, Lu Mingyun said, "Father, he knows nothing."
"Did you speak?!" Marquis Wu'an roared angrily.
Lu Mingyun said nonchalantly, "There's no point in calling him here. If you want to punish someone, punish me. Why bother with this?"
