Rebirth and Revenge: The Imperial Master’s Pampering of Me is Addicting Me
13. Listening to the east and west ears and the south and north ears - can't hear it anyway
Qilan leaned against the rockery, still looking down at the medical book, cramming for the exam. Who knew when Master Fu would test her? If she couldn't recite the medicine, it would be so embarrassing. She didn't want to do that!
As he was reading, he heard Cheng Qin's words and quickly put the book away. He subconsciously glanced behind him before replying loudly.
"Madam, the young master and the young lady are in the pavilion chatting and drinking tea with Master Fu. They asked us to go outside and play. I want to read some medical books."
Anyway, I'm not standing here to keep watch. Madam, you shouldn't doubt it, right? She said it so sincerely!
The two girls beside his daughter were trained by Xiao Fu himself for several years before being sent back. One of them was good at martial arts and the other studied medicine and followed Ali early on. Cheng Qin was very confident in them and spoke to them in a gentle tone.
"Then continue reading and practice your medical skills. If you need any books, ask Ali to buy them for you."
Cheng Qin didn't think much about it and immediately took Lianxiang in.
Lianxiang glanced at her sideways and found her reaction a little strange, but she didn't point it out.
Qilan hurriedly followed them in and walked to the front to lead the way. She couldn't help but complain in her heart.
She had been quite loud just now, and I wonder if the young master or the young lady heard it? Even if they didn't, at least Master Fu should have heard it, right?
Fu Chen was a martial artist with good hearing, so he could hear clearly. Finally, he warned the two brats with a dark face.
"Your mother is here. If you don't want her to find out, be careful what you say! I can promise you not to tell them for now, but you must follow my instructions on this matter and not interfere, otherwise I will complain to your father!"
He finally realized that these two kids only listened with their ears to the east and west - they couldn't hear anything anyway!
Mu Qingli cooperated very well and adjusted the smile on her face. She stood up and refilled his tea with a soft tone.
"Don't worry, we don't want our parents to know this any more than you do."
Only then did Fu Chen realize that from the beginning to the end of the discussion, the little girl had only a faint smile on her face, and even the curve of the smile did not change.
He couldn't help but frown slightly and asked a question subtly.
"Ah Li, if your father knew you dared to contact the people from the Ferry Pavilion, would he come straight back from the border to teach you a lesson?"
Mu Fushu glanced at his sister and smiled, "That's why we hope you'll keep it a secret, godfather. Just treat it as a little secret between the three of us."
"Given my father's personality, he would probably frantically send letters home to stop me while he went to His Majesty to ask for permission to return to the capital."
Mu Qingli lowered his eyes to hide the dark color surging in his eyes, then stood up and walked towards the people walking not far away.
It was really the style of his sworn brother. Fu Chen was inexplicably choked and finally shook his head helplessly. He quickly concealed the complicated expression on his face, smiled and raised his hand to greet.
"Sister-in-law, are you back from the banquet? You've been really hard-pressed these past few days with Ali ill. It must be hard to take care of two children on your own. My eldest brother also said that he would ask His Majesty for permission to return to the capital as soon as the border war is settled."
He meant what he said sincerely. After all, the deep love between his elder brother and sister-in-law made him, a person who had never been involved in love, extremely envious.
"He's always been good at using these words to coax people. The surrounding small countries have been unstable in recent years, and his efforts are still needed at the border. It's not that easy for him to come back. If I hadn't stopped him, I'm afraid even my son would have run away with him."
Cheng Qin complained casually, but the smile on her face never faded, and the sweetness in her eyes was visible to the naked eye.
Mu Qingli just glanced at his mother and then lowered his eyes. The fingers on his knees couldn't help but tighten a little.
My parents loved each other deeply all their lives. If it weren't for the news that the Mu family had committed treason, and that my father, brother, and adoptive father had died on the battlefield, coupled with the incident of her being "caught cheating", how could my mother, who had always been in good health, have suddenly collapsed and eventually died of illness?
Fu Chen raised his hand and poured her a cup of tea and pushed it over to her. He behaved in a measured manner and couldn't help but sigh.
"It's true that things have been tough at the border these past few years, but things have started to improve recently. With my eldest brother's abilities, it's easy to subdue them. Perhaps His Majesty will allow him to return to the capital soon. It would be good to let Zi'an study in the capital for a few more years."
"Speaking of which, I also have to thank my adoptive father for finding me a very good martial arts master. I go to the academy to study during the day, and learn from the martial arts master at night. My martial arts have improved greatly in the past few years. If you don't believe me, you can try me out when you have time."
Mu Fushu stood up with a smile and bowed solemnly to thank his adoptive father.
But only Mu Qingli and Fu Chen knew that his thank you was not just for that, but also for thanking him for being willing to help them.
Fu Chen didn't say much, just agreed with a smile.
Cheng Qin's eyes were filled with pride and doting when she saw her son like this. Apart from anything else, she believed that she had educated the two children in the family relatively well. Compared with children of the same age from other powerful families, her son was a leader.
As if she thought of something, she suddenly smiled and changed the subject, telling Fu Chen enthusiastically.
"By the way, the palace also sent some medicinal herbs when Ah Li was sick this time. Take them with you when you go back. They may be useful to you at the border."
Fu Chen smiled and nodded, glanced at the two children inconspicuously, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
But this kid, Ali, asked for five years. Who knows if he can even go back from here?
Mu Qingli sat quietly listening to them talk, occasionally raising her hand to take the pastries her brother fed her and eating them slowly, while chatting quietly with her brother.
The two of them sat directly next to each other and whispered to each other.
"Brother, didn't you ask Shu Yan to get some information last time? Did you find out anything? Why did Shi Pei beat his son when he was fine?"
Mu Qingli was indeed very curious. In her previous life, when she heard the news, she was detained by her mother and could not leave the house, so she didn't get to know any of the gossip. When she heard that Shu Yan had gone to inquire about it, she really wanted to know.
However, the little devil of the Shi family really needs to be dealt with properly. After all, the older he gets, the less useful he becomes.
Mu Fushu tilted his head slightly, bent over, and explained to her in a low voice.
"I heard it was Shi Guang'an who broke the jade inkstone screen with a pine and crane pattern in his study, and he had snuck in. Shi Pei got so angry that he beat him up. Even his mother couldn't stop him. It was only when Shi Guangling returned that he stopped him."
A jasper inkstone screen with a pine and crane pattern? She remembered it clearly...
Mu Qingli frowned when he heard this, thought for a while, and then turned his head to ask his brother.
"Brother, are you sure the jade inkstone screen with a pine and crane pattern in his study is broken?"
Mu Fushu was a little puzzled, and thought about it seriously before nodding.
"What Shuyan told me personally should be correct. When he comes back from his work, I'll ask him to come and tell you in person, or I can ask someone to find out more."
Mu Qingli shook her head slightly at him, but felt strange in her heart.
She had clearly seen that thing in someone's hand in her previous life. Shi Pei... was lying!
