Within a minute, the servant who went in to report came out and said a few words in the butler's ear.
After hearing this, the housekeeper immediately opened the door and made an invitation gesture to Mu Jingchen and Bai Liyue.
"Mr. Mu, Mrs. Mu, please come in."
Mu Jingchen and Bai Liyue walked side by side and followed the housekeeper into Dongfang's house.
The housekeeper led them into the Dongfang family's living room and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mu and Mrs. Mu, our young master is still in the company now.
"However, our wife is at home and specifically asked me to ask you to go in and sit down first. She has informed our young master that he will be back soon." "
"Well, it doesn't matter."
Mu Jingchen's face remained expressionless, his mood did not fluctuate at all, and he walked steadily towards the living room of Dongfang's house.
He came here not to see Dongfang Han.
¡
soon.
The housekeeper led Mu Jingchen and Bai Liyue to a villa hall and introduced: "This is the living room of our Dongfang family, and our wife is inside."
"Thank you."
After thanking the housekeeper, Bai Liyue followed Mu Jingchen into the hall.
The living room of the Dongfang family is luxurious, clean and very quiet.
When Mu Jingchen and Bai Liyue entered the living room together, they saw a woman wearing a brown dress and a short black cloak walking down the stairs.
The manner is very elegant.
This woman has a soft appearance, and her black hair is pulled back with a simple pearl hairpin, which is very delicate.
It looks like he is less than thirty years old.
I heard that the Dongfang family has three children, Dongfang Han is the youngest, and he has two sisters.
Dongfang Wan and the others have met before. Presumably, the person in front of them is Dongfang Han's second sister, Dongfang Yi.
Bai Liyue took two steps forward, smiled gently at these women, and said politely: "Hello, Miss Dongfang, we are"
Before she could finish speaking, the woman covered her mouth and smiled.
Bai Liyue looked at her doubtfully: "Miss Dongfang, why are you laughing?"
The housekeeper of the Dongfang family hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "Mrs. Mu, this is our wife."
Bai Liyue was surprised and glanced at the woman in front of her again.
This woman¡¯s skin can be broken by blows. She only applied a little makeup, but there is not a trace of wrinkles.
As far as she knows, Dongfang¡¯s wife Wen Rumeng is over fifty years old.
¡°But she looks so young, it¡¯s almost an exaggeration to say she has grown in reverse.
Bai Liyue smiled apologetically and apologized quickly: "Sorry, Mrs. Dongfang, you are so young, so I mistakenly thought you were the daughter of the Dongfang family. I'm sorry."
Wen Rumeng waved his hand lightly, obviously not taking it to heart.
After all, no woman will be angry if she is praised for her youth.
Wen Rumeng looks young, but her demeanor is steady, and the difference between her and young women can be seen in her movements.
Mu Jingchen took two steps closer and introduced himself: "Mrs. Dongfang, I'm sorry to bother you because I'm here unexpectedly."
Wen Rumeng smiled and nodded lightly.
"The servant has come to report just now. You are the young master of the Mu family and my son's friend. You don't need to see anyone outside. Please sit down."
Wen Rumeng invited Mu Jingchen and Bai Liyue to sit aside.
When Wen Rumeng walked past Bai Liyue, Bai Liyue smelled a strong scent of perfume on her body and almost choked.
She covered her nose lightly and almost sneezed impolitely.
At the same time, I was also a little curious, how could such a dignified woman like Wen Rumeng wear such a heavy perfume.
After looking at Wen Rumeng, Bai Liyue followed Mu Jingchen and sat down.
The Dongfang family¡¯s servants were very discerning and quickly made some good tea and brought it over.
After Wen Rumeng invited Mu Jingchen and Mu Jingchen to drink tea, he said, "You guys sit down for a while, my son will be back soon."
Mu Jingchen took a sip of the tea in front of him, then put down the cup and looked at Wen Rumeng.
"Mrs. Dongfang, you misunderstood. We are not here to find Master Dongfang, but to find you."
"Find me?"
Wen Rumeng paused as he picked up the tea, confused.
Bai Liyue nodded and added: "Yes, Mrs. Dongfang, we heard that the Dongfang family has a rare herb, Hanzhucao.
We need this herbal medicine right now, so I would like to ask Mrs. Dongfang if she can?Sell to us. "
Hearing that Mu Jingchen and Bai Liyue were here to seek the Cold Pearl Grass, the smile on Wen Rumeng's face froze, and she was obviously a little embarrassed.
¡°What a coincidence, Master Mu, Mrs. Mu, this year¡¯s Hanzhu Grass has already been booked.
You also know that the herb, Cold Pearl Grass, is extremely picky about its growth environment. It only grows in extremely cold places, and its survival rate is extremely low.
Even though my Dongfang family has a homemade ice cellar and sows thousands of seeds every year, the survival rate has never exceeded one.
??This year¡¯s surviving cold pearl grass, someone has paid a high price to reserve it with me two days ago. After a period of time, the person will come to pick up the goods. "
When Bai Liyue heard that there was only one herb this year and it had been reserved, she quickly stood up and said, "Mrs. Dongfang, we need this herb for life-saving purposes. Could you please tell the person who made the reservation that we are willing to pay for it?" Buy this medicinal ingredient at double the price!¡±
Wen Rumeng apologized directly: "I'm sorry, Mrs. Mu, we businessmen are all about integrity. Once sold, we will never change it."
Bai Liyue didn't expect that she would arrive a step too late.
The herb "Hanzhucao" has miraculous effects of warming, nourishing and detoxifying. It can be used by dying people to hang themselves, but it is of no use to ordinary people.
Bai Liyue still refused to give up and said, "Then can you tell me who bought it? I can go and negotiate with that person."
Wen Rumeng shook his head and smiled: "I'm sorry, I promised to keep the buyer's information confidential."
"But¡¡"
Bai Liyue wanted to say something else, but Mu Jingchen reached out and gently grabbed her arm, winking at her to signal her not to continue talking.
Bai Liyue understood what he meant.
Even though he was a little reluctant, he didn¡¯t say anything else.
Mu Jingchen looked at Wen Rumeng and said directly: "In that case, Mrs. Dongfang, please excuse me."
Wen Rumeng chuckled and nodded: "It's okay."
After saying that, Mu Jingchen took Bai Liyue and they walked out of the Dongfang family's living room together.
The moment she walked out of the living room, Bai Liyue shook off Mu Jingchen's hand and asked with some dissatisfaction: "Why don't you let me continue talking?
That herb can save your life! And there¡¯s only one! If someone else buys it, you will be hopeless! "
Mu Jingchen looked at Bai Liyue's angry expression and knew that she was too concerned about his safety.
He smiled softly and held her hand again.
"I have inquired before coming here. The Dongfang family is the most honest. Since they promised to keep the buyer's information confidential, they will never tell us."
Bai Liyue was a little discouraged. She hugged Mu Jingchen's arm and said, "What should I do? I can't watch you die of poison, can I?" (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com
