Chapter 142 A Mind-Blowing Idea
Oh dear! Mother, don't you know why Mu Long is so downcast? It's because of that woman named Xia Rong, of course! I was fortunate enough to see her once at the market, and she truly is an absolute beauty! No wonder our young master Mu Long is so distracted by her!
Haha! Elder brother, your words make it sound as if I, Mu Long, am a womanizer. I've simply been neglecting some trivial matters at Long Sheng's place lately! Why must you speak of me like that?
Besides! I can rest so freely now that I have you, my elder brother, by my side, right?
Haha! Yang Mulong, why do I feel like you're starting to act like a sycophant again? Hey kid, is there something you need your older brother to handle again?
Hey! Alright! You two brothers, can you stop bickering every time you meet? The most important thing now is to find the vanished wine as soon as possible. Could you have inadvertently revealed the exact location of this cave and that you've stored a large amount of wine in it?
No! No! Absolutely not! We always secretly transported those fine wines to this cave under cover of darkness. Furthermore, to prevent anyone from ever discovering that we had hidden some wine in this cave, my brother and I set up many traps and mechanisms within it.
What's more, when Zhuzhu and the other girls entered the cave, all the fine wines were still safely on the floor. I even carefully counted them, and not a single jar was missing.
Haha! Do you think it's possible that our little fairy Zhuzhu made all those fine wines disappear into thin air?
Just as Yuqin was about to say, "Mulong, you're talking nonsense," she remembered what had happened a few mornings ago. So she remained silent.
Zhuzhu, who had originally wanted to watch her father and uncle bicker, found herself bewildered when they shifted the topic from her uncle to her side. Her head was spinning; she hadn't yet figured out how to answer their question.
During her time in the cave, Zhuzhu, feeling bored, browsed her system. She discovered that her system not only contained a giant supermarket but also a large farm and pond. She could freely grow her favorite fruits and vegetables on this farm.
Originally, Zhuzhu wanted to ask her father and uncle to plant more grapes next spring. But when she saw that the cave contained so much wine, she was reminded of how she loved to sell several kilograms of grapes to make wine during the grape harvest season in her previous life.
Haha! I used to advise my father to drink less, but in my previous life, I would drink a little of my own homemade wine every day after lunch. I wonder if this love of drinking is hereditary? My siblings and even the next generation are all very fond of wine.
Yes, yes, yes! It must have been my fairy sister-in-law who made all of Father's fine wine disappear. Otherwise, who would have such power?
Upon hearing what Yingying said, Zhuzhu quickly ran to Yingying's side and covered Yingying's mouth with her little hand.
Alright! You little rascal, aren't you as troublesome as you've caused? I'm starting to see you becoming more and more like Rosa when she was little. So nagging! I'm even starting to wonder if Rosa inherited her nagging genes from you, her aunt?
Sister-in-law, could you tell me who Rosa is? Why do you keep mentioning her lately?
When Zhuzhu heard Xiaoyingying ask her this question, she answered without thinking: "Rosa is of course your older sister's daughter! Why do you even have to ask me this question?"
Ah! At this moment, Xiao Yingying's mouth was wide open, and she looked at her sister-in-law with disbelief.
My dear sister-in-law, are you kidding me? We don't even have a brother-in-law yet! How could my eldest sister possibly have a daughter?
After being reminded by Xiao Yingying, Zhuzhu realized that they were still little children who hadn't reached adulthood yet. Jianmei gave birth to Rousha when she was thirty-eight, responding to the national policy of late marriage and late childbirth. Because her brother-in-law was a teacher, they only had one daughter, Rousha.
Thinking about it, Jianmei must have been incredibly lonely giving birth to her daughter, Rousha! She wouldn't know who to consult with in case of any major event. Isn't this a common worry for all only children?
Zhuzhu, why won't you answer the questions we asked you? Did you destroy all the rice wine in this cave?
Yes, Father, it was indeed me who moved the rice wine to another place! I felt it was very unsafe to leave all the rice wine in this cave. Just like what happened, it could explode if we weren't careful. If all our rice wine had still been in this cave, it wouldn't have been just a simple explosion.
There is a high possibility of a fire, and this cave is only one meter away from the Shenglong Hotel! Moreover, most of our Shenglong Hotel is built with bamboo and wood.
Upon hearing Zhuzhu's words, Mu Long recalled why he had felt uneasy at the Gaishenglong Hotel.
Uncle, I don't know what you were thinking when you built the Shenglong Hotel? Why did you use wood and bamboo to build it?
What's wrong, Zhuzhu? Why did you suddenly bring this up? Back then, to make our grand hotel look more unique, I had people use materials like wood and bamboo when building the Gaishenglong Grand Hotel.
Haha! Uncle, I feel like your IQ is a little off today? Didn't you consider the safety hazards when you were at the Gaishenglong Hotel?
Yes! Do you remember the night the Shenglong Hotel opened, someone maliciously dumped a whole barrel of oil into the river?
Mu Long frowned when his elder brother brought up the issue.
Are you trying to say that the person who wanted to set fire to our Longsheng Street did so because they saw that the buildings on our street were made of wood and bamboo?
Hmm! Mu Long, now I feel that there was something wrong with how you built this commercial street back then?
If this were just an ordinary business...
If this were just an ordinary commercial street, perhaps it wouldn't have attracted so much trouble. Don't you think that since our Shenglong Hotel opened, we've had one accident after another?
