Love and Cherish: The Twin Sisters ( Part 1 )

At that Moment, there was a loud cursing coming from across the street. Mu Linfeng turned around and saw a man trampling a woman while scolding her, but the distance was too far for Mu Linfeng to make out what he was saying.

Kong Wu was startled by the sound as well and quickly stood up to look out the window. Mu Linfeng asked, "Who are these people?"

Kong Wu angrily replied, "They're all the sons of officials."

Seeing how angry Kong Wu was, Mu Linfeng guessed that he was witnessing the sons of wealthy families bullying someone weaker. He asked, "What is that place across the street? Is it like a brothel?"

Kong Wu clenched his fist and said, "It's not a brothel officially, but it's already like one. It's a restaurant opened by Prince Fu."

Mu Linfeng was surprised. He knew that Prince Fu, the future Fu Wang, had escaped to Nanjing after his father was killed by Li Zicheng. But he didn't think that Prince Fu should already be in Nanjing now, and his father shouldn't have been killed by Li Zicheng yet. He was confused and wondered if he had unknowingly changed history.

Kong Wu didn't notice Mu Linfeng's thoughts and continued, "Fu Wang is fearful of my family's wealth and reputation, and he puts on an act of politeness towards my family in public, but secretly he has been plotting against my family, trying to take them down."

Mu Linfeng was puzzled. "What does Prince Fu gain by doing this? Once the Qing army enters the pass, the other southern leaders will appoint a new ruler, and Fu Wang could rely on the wealth of the Feng family. Why would he do something so self-destructive?" He thought to himself, "But it seems that his foolishness and muddleheaded are true." He sighed, not knowing if he should try to get closer to Fu Wang to make some plans for the future.

Kong Wu saw Mu Linfeng sighing and asked, "Why are you sighing, Mu Brother?"

Mu Linfeng shook his head and said, "Fu Wang should find some way to deal with him."

Kong Wu looked at Mu Linfeng in surprise. "Even our family's master doesn't dare to confront Fu Wang directly. Mu Brother, what..."

Mu Linfeng smiled. "You don't have to confront someone to deal with them."

Kong Wu was confused, not understanding what Mu Linfeng meant. Mu Linfeng had some plans in mind, but he didn't explain any further to Kong Wu.

At that Moment, the food and drinks were served, and Mu Linfeng and Kong Wu returned to the table. After having a few drinks, Mu Linfeng remembered that he had promised Su Duxiu to get up early the next day to practice martial arts, so when Kong Wu offered Mure drinks, Mu Linfeng declined three times. After talking for Mure than an hour, they parted ways.

When Mu Linfeng returned to the Mu residence, he saw that his brothers had gathered in a circle and were talking loudly. He was curious and walked in to take a look. He smiled and said, "You figured it out so quickly?"

It turned out that the center of the circle was a human-powered cart. Although it was slightly different from the ones on Shanghai Beach, it looked somewhat similar. Wu Xing was sitting on it and a brother was pulling him back and forth.

Wu Xing saw Mu Linfeng come back, jumped off the car immediately and said: "There are still some details that need to be perfected, I believe it can be completed tomorrow."

Mu Linfeng patted Wu Xing's shoulder and said: "I knew you could do it." Wu Xing asked his brothers to pull the car in the yard and said: "Look, the wheel is made of wood, there is no bullet to help lubricate it, it can't run very fast, I will think of a way to improve it tomorrow."

Mu Linfeng nodded his head and said: "You just do it, let the brothers count all the goods we brought from Shandong tomorrow, we need silver now, I have already found the buyer."

Wu Xing nodded his head and hurriedly gave orders.

After Mu Linfeng said some details to Wu Xing, he returned to the room and saw Chen Yuanyuan was preparing for bed. Mu Linfeng lay on the bed and sighed for a long time, but he was calculating in his heart how to establish a relationship with Mr. Feng first, so that he could help himself in the business community of Nanjing.

This night, Mu Linfeng changed his usual style, not touching Chen Yuanyuan at all.

Chen Yuanyuan was strange, thinking that Mu Linfeng was not feeling well, so she asked Mu Linfeng about it, and Mu Linfeng said that he was too tired to accompany his friends, and tried to restrain himself.

Mu Linfeng thought: "After talking about business with Mr. Feng tomorrow, I must find a way to see Zhu Youyong and see what kind of person he is."

The next day, Mu Linfeng just opened his eyes, and heard Su Duxiu's voice coming from outside: "The master has got up to practice martial arts."

Mu Linfeng immediately sat up and dressed. Chen Yuanyuan was also woken up and opened her sleepy eyes and asked Mu Linfeng: "Mu Lang, why are you getting up so early?" She was about to get up to serve Mu Linfeng to dress, but Mu Linfeng quickly gestured for her to continue sleeping: "I promised the master to get up early every day to practice martial arts, you don't have to get up early."

Mu Linfeng saw Su Duxiu's face full of joy when he walked out of the room, and he knew that he was very satisfied with his words and deeds. He also felt the same. He thought that no one could be a leader without letting his subordinates be relieved.

Mu Linfeng took out "Xuewei Common Knowledge" and read the unfinished part before Su Duxiu told Mu Linfeng the acupuncture points he didn't know, and even demonstrated several times with Mu Linfeng.

After remembering all of this, Mu Linfeng exchanged several moves with Su Duxiu. Fortunately, he still remembered what Mu Linfeng had taught him that day, and the techniques and steps he had performed were quite skillful.

Su Duxiu only faced Mu Linfeng, not watching Mu Linfeng practice the techniques and steps. After Mu Linfeng finished, Su Duxiu said, "Let me make a personal sword for you today." Mu Linfeng said, "Sword?" He thought to himself, "I should start a business in the future. It's not convenient to carry a sword all the time."

Su Duxiu seemed to have seen Mu Linfeng's worries, and quickly said, "If you think the sword is not convenient, I can make a soft sword for you, so don't worry about it."

Mu Linfeng still felt uncomfortable. Zheng Xiyu also used a soft sword. He had seen Zheng Xiyu draw his sword. Although the posture was elegant, there was still an indescribable feeling.

Mu Linfeng said to Su Duxiu, "Can I not use a sword? I'm not learning sword techniques, just techniques and steps. Besides, the highest level of swordsmanship is that all things are swords. No matter what I have in my hand, as long as I have a sword in my heart, why do I care if I have a sword in my hand? "

Su Duxiu looked at Mu Linfeng in surprise. Suddenly he knelt down and said, "Please forgive me, master."

Mu Linfeng was at a loss when he saw Su Duxiu suddenly kneel down to himself. He hurriedly helped Su Duxiu up, but Su Duxiu still did not get up and said, "When I saw the old master wanted to take you as an apprentice, I objected. The old master said that you were born with extraordinary intelligence and talents. I didn't realize it at that time. When I heard your understanding of martial arts, it was beyond my expectation. I really believe that you can fulfill the wishes of the old master and make the martial arts of the Mu family flourish. "

Mu Linfeng wondered in his heart, "My understanding of martial arts?" He thought, "That's just some lines I've heard in TV and movies. I didn't expect to use it, just to let Su Duxiu look at me differently. " Mu Linfeng hurriedly helped Su Duxiu up again and said, "I forgive you."

Seeing that Mu Linfeng had forgiven himself, Su Duxiu finally got up and asked, "Then at least the master needs a personal weapon?"

Mu Linfeng thought for a while. He only remembered that the heroes in those martial arts movies were not barehanded but waving a paper fan. He said, "Yes, give me a paper fan."

Su Duxiu said in surprise, "Paper fan? Okay, since the master ordered, let me customize a treasure fan for the master!"

Mu Linfeng thanked Su Duxiu with his mouth, but he thought in his heart, "What weapon do I need? I have a gun, which is enough! "
