C351 How Much Is Face Worth
"Little girl, you don't have to worry. The child will still be with you before the age of ten. He will only be sent up the mountain after the age of ten. He will have the upbringing of the Elders Guild. How about it? You have to know that ten years old is considered quite old in many families. Many families' children usually start to raise at the age of four or five years old? "
The chief's words were not without basis. Many families' children were raised from the age of four or five. The next generation of children began to teach all kinds of skills when they were about four or five years old, in order to select a child that was most suitable to be the successor of the family.
However, the descendants of the Dongfang family had always been thin. Muh Jingyan was a woman after all. The elders naturally had to worry about the issue of the Dongfang family's incense offerings. They wanted the child to come over first. As for the surname of the child, it didn't matter.
Of course, if they were to give birth to a few more children in the future, they might as well give birth to a few more children with the surname Dongfang.
"I will remember what the chief said. But I need to discuss this with my husband! "
Muh Jingyan didn't know what Yung Mo's attitude would be, so she naturally wouldn't agree to the patriarch's request. Although the Dongfang family had very few heirs, she had already married Yung Mo. Naturally, she was thinking about Yung Mo's attitude.
The patriarch wasn't in a difficult position. After all, this wasn't a small matter. Naturally, he would give Muh Jingyan more time to think about it.
"No worries. Take this order from the hidden guards first. You can tell me the answer the next time you return it to me!"
As he spoke, the chief took out a brocade box from the side and opened it. He took out a crystal clear jade pendant and handed it to Muh Jingyan.
Muh Jingyan originally thought that the secret guard token was a wooden and iron plate. After all, a large family like Dongfang family, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, might use those things.
But she never thought that the token of the Dongfang family's secret guard was actually such a crystal clear and high-quality suet jade!
"Don't be surprised. The Dongfang family has a deep foundation. There are countless of good things like this. Otherwise, why would the outside world say that the Dongfang family is as rich as a country? However, those things are all in the old mansion on the mountain. However, once you inherit the position of the patriarch of the Dongfang family, those things will be under your control!"
The chief of the major families saw this. Muh Jingyan was a little surprised and couldn't help but smile. She passed the order to guard the place to Muh Jingyan and let her bring it along.
Not to mention, Muh Jingyan wearing the order was no different from an ordinary jade pendant. It was as if she was wearing an ornament. However, all the Death Warriors and Dark Guards of Dongfang family only recognized this Dark Guard Command Plate.
What made Muh Jingyan even more surprised was that this Dark Guard Command Plate was actually a good quality warm jade. It was truly a rare item among rare items when it was warm in winter and cool in summer.
"Thank you, Great Patriarch!" Muh Jingyan looked at the Great Patriarch and could not help but thank him.
"I will take you to pick people!"
In the end, Muh Jingyan chose a few men of sacrifice and hidden guards with good skills. Among them, Ge Qing who took care of her also wore them. With a girl protecting an outsider by her side, it would not be too suspicious of her.
Juliana and Dongfang Jing were not removed. Her father had not returned and his whereabouts were unknown. She could not let others know that she was carrying a child now. Otherwise, Juliana would be able to see this weakness of hers and deal with her.
At night, after Muh Jingyan had dinner at the old residence, she brought ten or so men of sacrifice and the hidden guards out the door. Not long after she went out, she saw a tent in the distance and Ouyang Shaoqing stood in front of the tent.
Ouyang Shaoqing had been waiting outside for Muh Jingyan to come out these few days. Even though he knew that Muh Jingyan was fine, he was still worried.
"Mumu, are you alright?"
Muh Jingyan also did not expect Ouyang Shaoqing, this silly kid, to keep watch. When she saw Ouyang Shaoqing's concerned eyes, the coldness in her eyes could not help but dissipate a little. She shook her head and said, "I am fine!"
"Then. . . Is the child alright?"
Ouyang Shaoqing lightly sighed. Thinking that Mumu actually had a child in her womb, and it was another man's, he could not help but feel a little depressed and uncomfortable in his heart.
"Yes, he is very good. He made you worry. Oh right. You didn't tell Yung Mo about this, did you?"
Muh Jingyan frowned and looked at Ouyang Shaoqing. She was deeply afraid that Ouyang Shaoqing would tell Yung Mo and make him worry.
Ouyang Shaoqing looked at Muh Jingyan deeply. In his heart, he felt sorry and liked this silly woman. Unfortunately, no matter how good Mumu was, she did not belong to him. He could only protect her quietly behind him.
"Don't worry. Am I that careless?" Ouyang Shaoqing pretended to be relaxed and said.
Muh Jingyan only let out a sigh of relief when she heard that Ouyang Shaoqing did not tell Yung Mo.
"This is?" At this moment, Ouyang Shaoqing only saw a dozen or so people standing behind Muh Jingyan. Each of them had a strong momentum and could not help but narrow his eyes.
"My people, let's go!"
Muh Jingyan said lightly. She didn't hide anything. Ouyang Shaoqing knew who these people were with just a glance. Even if they were the so-called men of sacrifice or the guards of the Dongfang family, there were also some from the Ouyang family. However, compared to the people behind Mumu, they were obviously not on the same level.
"Mumu, our relationship is so good. Why don't we let the men of sacrifice and the guards of the Ouyang family stay in the Dongfang family for a while?" Ouyang Shaoqing shook his golden hair and revealed a smile on his handsome face. He looked at Muh Jingyan and asked.
"Are you courting death by letting the Dongfang family go?"
Muh Jingyan's cold eyes lit up and looked at Ouyang Shaoqing. She had seen the sacrificial warriors and the guards of the Ouyang family back then. Sending them into the Dongfang family was akin to sending themselves to their doorsteps and seeking death!
"Can't you give me some face?!" Ouyang Shaoqing looked at Muh Jingyan with grief.
Muh Jingyan did not understand him at all. She just glanced at Ouyang Shaoqing indifferently and said something. She coldly walked forward and said, "How much is face worth?"
"What a heartless woman!"
Ouyang Shaoqing sighed and followed Muh Jingyan.
Muh Jingyan had just reached the mountainside when a dangerous and strange aura came from the air. She stopped and her cold eyes looked around coldly.
"Who is it, come out!"
Muh Jingyan coldly shouted. The men of sacrifice and the hidden guards behind her could not help but be shocked at the same time.
Ge Qing originally thought that this big miss was nothing more than a little stronger than the young miss of an ordinary large family but she did not expect that big miss's perception was so strong. These men of sacrifice and hidden guards did not even notice the danger in the dark and big miss had already noticed it. In her heart, she could not help but look at Muh Jingyan in a different light.
Sensing the surrounding danger approaching, the men of sacrifice and the hidden guards immediately went forward and surrounded Muh Jingyan to protect her.
Ouyang Shaoqing narrowed his eyes and looked around coldly. He stretched out his hand and took out a gun from behind his waist.
