But then again, it was good that Xiao Que Mao didn't try to push them for anything and only chatted for information.
'Xiao Family, huh?'
While Xiao Qiang, Empress Xiao, did help Nan Hua, those help was basically negligible. The relationship between Xiao Family and Nan Family was not close and could only be acquaintance at best.
Besides, their pursuit in life were completely different.
Nan Family focused on military and would stay at the frontline or other battlefield most of the time. Xiao Family was a scholar family and most of their family members were officials, including Xiao Que Mao.
They wouldn't interact with each other that much.
At this moment, Steward Tou came and bowed. "Young Master, Young Commander Mu and Fourth Miss Mu is here to pay a visit."
"Young Commander Mu?" Nan Luo was dumbfounded. What in the world that Mu Sheng Xi want to come here today?
No, in the first place, he didn't remember that Mu Sheng Xi was part of their army when they first headed to Yi City in this battle. Did he come here afterwards because of some matter related to Mu Family?
Ever since General Mu retired, the army under him was under General Cao. Perhaps Mu Sheng Xi came here because they were also here?
Also, who's Fourth Miss Mu?
Xiao Que Mao's eyes flashed when he heard that. He cupped his fist. "Since First Young Master Nan had other guest, this one will bid his farewell first. I hope that we can talk again in the future, First Young Master Nan."
"It has been a pleasant talk." Nan Luo kept a polite smile. "Thank you for your invitation, Second Young Master Xiao."
After a few more polite words, Xiao Que Mao walked to the gate. On the way, he could see Mu Sheng Xi walked with a young girl following behind him. He cupped his hand in greetings and then left.
Mu Sheng Xi frowned when he saw Xiao Que Mao but then again, there were a lot of influential families in Fei Yang Kingdom. He couldn't possibly remember all of them and interact with them.
"Second Cousin, who is he?" Fourth Miss Mu, Mu Fei Jiao, asked curiously.
"He should be another official who come to compete for the position in Yi City." Mu Sheng Xi frowned. "Also, I'm not your second cousin."
"I don't want to recognize the others who had passed away. Since you're the second oldest after your older brother, I will naturally call you as Second Cousin." Mu Fei Jiu stuck out her tongue playfully.
Mu Sheng Xi looked at his playful cousin and felt helpless. Whenever he was interacting with Mu Fei Jiu, he always felt that he was interacting with a little kid. This made him rather helpless, but he loved this playful and cheerful cousin of his.
While she was coquettish and playful, she was not annoying.
It was really hard to describe.
