Quick Wear: Another day of being criticized for falling in love at first sight

Chapter 538: The Republic of China, the Marshal's Gentle Cousin 7

My nephew is indeed a son of destiny. His eyes are terrifyingly deep, just like the bottomless lake, which makes people feel terrified...

It was mainly because of the bottomless lake, which was rippling with waves, as if a terrifying beast was imprisoned inside...

Miaomiao didn’t know whether this description was appropriate or not. In short, subconsciously, Miaomiao dismissed the most real feelings as dizziness.

For example, she saw something burning in her eldest nephew's eyes, which made her face burn...

"Aunt..."

Miaomiao originally didn't think that the young marshal would really be too polite to her, who was so far away from her and older than her.

But she never expected that Young Marshal Mu would actually call her "cousin" in a very gentlemanly way.

Miaomiao coughed lightly, and under the eldest lady's joyful expression, she softly responded with a "Hello."

"I'm sorry to bother you these days, aunt. I'm very grateful that you can stay with my mother.

From now on, if there is anything you need from Yuan Zhao, please just ask."

The eldest lady did not expect that her son would say such embarrassing words on the spot.

The man who usually behaves coldly is actually warm in front of his mother. Unlike the old man in her family.

Miaomiao nodded and thanked him hurriedly, but didn't say anything else.

She kept in mind what Baobao had said, and was prepared to be cautious and prudent every day she stayed in the Marshal's Mansion, and to be a gentle and virtuous cousin.

Mu Yuanzhao looked at the girl who was only a few steps away from him. The look of surprise on her face due to his words and then her gentle thanks made ripples in his heart.

These calls of "cousin" are used to remind him what he should and should not do.

Now that everyone is here, it’s natural for them to sit down and eat.

At dinner time, the Marshal did not come back to eat for some reason, and there were only two men at the table: Mu Yuanzhao and his younger brother Mu Yuanze.

Mu Yuanzhao was still silently repeating the word "cousin" in his heart, using ethics and morals to restrain his eyes.

But he saw that his little brother, who was tall but not smart, was very close to Miaomiao.

In an instant, all the previous efforts at restraint seemed to have gone to waste...

Mu Yuanzhao watched Mu Yuanze calling "Aunt" all the time, sometimes asking Miaomiao to help him pick up the dishes that he couldn't reach, and sometimes sharing delicious snacks with Miaomiao.

He even clumsily shared his few hiking experiences...

This clumsy flattery attracted the favor of his pretty cousin, and the two of them even lowered their heads and laughed together while discussing things! !

There is a nine-year age difference between them!!

What does this kid Mu Yuanze want to do?! Doesn’t he have any moral bottom line at all?

Mu Yuanzhao looked at the scene in front of him, and the hand holding the chopsticks unconsciously tightened until the knuckles turned white.

The originally stern face also twisted slightly at this moment.

A subtle sense of jealousy and fear secretly grew in my heart.

At this moment, he was no longer the decisive and ruthless Marshal Mu on the battlefield. In front of this "cousin", he lost the most important calmness and self-control.

The sour feeling grew wildly like weeds and could not be suppressed.

He could only keep reminding himself in his heart to restrain himself. His unintentional gaze swept over Miaomiao and his younger brother again and again, and then moved away...

The intimate interaction between the two was like a knife, stabbing him so hard that he almost couldn't maintain his composure.

"Yuan Ze..."

Unable to hold it back any longer, Mu Yuanzhao called out softly.

His voice was low and carried a hint of imperceptible eagerness. His eyes were fixed on Mu Yuanze, who was chatting with Miaomiao. However, his peripheral vision was always on that pretty face without a moment's hesitation.

Hearing his elder brother's call, Mu Yuanze's attention was diverted and he looked at his elder brother, who had a calm but inexplicably scary face.

Miaomiao's attention was instantly diverted and she looked at Mu Yuanzhao.

Although Mu Yuanze was a little confused, he finally put down his bowl and chopsticks obediently, sat up straight, and prepared to listen to his elder brother's instructions.

The moment Miaomiao looked at him, Mu Yuanzhao secretly felt a hint of joy, and his face, which had been a little scary just now, also regained its youthful look.

She is looking at me, it's so nice, I hope she can keep looking at me like this...

"elder brother."

Mu Yuanze didn't understand why his elder brother remained silent after calling him, so he asked again in a low voice.

"How are your studies going lately? I've been so busy I forgot to ask you."

Mu Yuanzhao came back to his senses and looked at his well-behaved brother. He was just chatting and laughing with Miaomiao, but he had too little schoolwork and was idle.

Disrespectful to elders, too intimate...

Mu Yuanze didn't expect that his elder brother would suddenly ask him about the school exam. After answering a few questions honestly, he lowered his head in shame.

"You're old enough now, and it's time to add some combat and strategic analysis courses to your studies.

So, from now on you will stay in the barracks with Adjutant Qian for two days every week.

Learning more about survival will only benefit you."

Mu Yuanze didn't expect the bad news to come so suddenly, but living in troubled times, he knew that his brother was doing it for his own good. Although his face turned bitter for a moment, he finally nodded obediently.

The eldest lady actually liked this arrangement very much. These days, her husband and her son were the foundation of her survival in this world. In the past decade alone, countless warlords had lost their families and lives.

Therefore, she did not think there was anything wrong with her unfilial son asking the fourth child to practice well, and she even encouraged it.

Miaomiao had some indigestion after the meal. It was not for any other reason, but she always felt that someone was watching her, and the sticky feeling like spider silk made her unable to swallow.

But after looking around, I didn't find anything strange...

After dinner, Miaomiao was about to leave. The eldest lady held her hand affectionately and told her with a smile to have a good rest.

On the contrary, although the second aunt was quite polite in the original owner's memory, she was not as enthusiastic as tonight, which gave Miaomiao goosebumps.

The words full of love and praise made the eldest lady mistakenly believe that the second son had something to ask of her cousin.

In short, more than ten minutes had passed by the time Miaomiao politely said goodbye to everyone.

She stood up, gently straightened her wrinkled skirt, and prepared to leave.

But at this moment, the young marshal, who had just assigned homework to Mu Yuanze with a cold face, pursed his lips slightly and stood up.

He pursed his lips, as if he didn't like the lively atmosphere, and turned to ask the butler.

"Do you remember where you put the Mauser C96 pistol I used before I became an adult?

That gun is suitable for Yuanze. It is simple to operate and has relatively small recoil, making it easy to use.

The recoil of the guns used in the military camp is too strong and is not suitable for Yuanze."

Mu Yuanzhao spoke seriously. This man, who usually only stated the conclusion but not the reasons, actually gave a lot of reasons for taking the gun.

The butler was a professional after all, and gave the answer in just a few seconds.

"Young Master, all your training materials are placed in the small building at the back as instructed. If you don't do this, I'll send someone to get them."

After the butler finished speaking, he wanted to look for someone, but was stopped by Mu Yuanzhao.
