Chapter 2656: The Compensation Is in Place...
2656 The Compensation Is in Place... Chenshang said she first needed to pack her things. She would then make her way to Magnolia Court by herself.
Qiao Mu thought it understandable. Chenshang had lived here for so long, with a lot of memories. It was naturally necessary to say goodbye.
After departing Wind Chasing Court, Qiao Mu turned to look at that rundown courtyard that looked like a haunted house. She squinted her eyes.
...
The reason for her mother's departure from the Mu Clan in a fit of pique was actually related to her maternal clan's hidden affairs.
As the branch family, the imperial capital's Long Clan actually betrayed the main family to obtain benefits.
No wonder they had it so easy and carefree in the imperial capital all these years.
This karma truly needed her to personally take charge and resolve.
By the time Qiao Mu arrived at True North Garden, it was already past lunchtime.
When the old steward of True North Garden saw that the young crown prince consort had come, he dared not slight her. He hastily led her into the main hall and then immediately went to request the patriarch's presence.
Since Mu Cang was waiting for a chat with his young granddaughter, he naturally wasn't going to enter closed-door cultivation.
As a result, as soon as the old steward made his report, he immediately left his room and strode toward the main hall. He arrived quickly.
The old sir could see the little lady's chilly figure from far away. She was sitting upright in the big wooden armchair in the main hall, her expression taut.
It was actually impossible to tell anything from her face. No expression, whether it be joy or anger, could be discerned from her face.
Old Master Cang coughed lightly. He strode into the room and said with a smile, "Qiaoqiao, so you've come to find Grandpa."
Qiao Mu nodded. "Where is the compensation you promised? Could you still not have finished preparing it?"
Old Master Cang twitched his mouth. He felt like the little lady was very calm and collected saying this, just as if she had mentioned compensation with other people countless times.
"C-Compensation, I won't be keeping it from you. It's all ready." Old Master Cang coughed lightly and then quickly turned to walk outside. "Come, follow me Qiaoqiao."
Qiao Mu got up expressionlessly and walked outside with the old sir. When they circled around to a flat area behind the buildling, sure enough, there were many supplies heaped up there.
From the looks of it, there was a larger volume of items than the compensation from the first time.
The little fellow's mood finally turned pleasant. She nodded and said, "Mhm, very good. Step aside a bit for me to collect them."
The old sir quickly nodded and stepped backwards.
The moment he saw the little lady continuously take out five blue storage talismans and toss them to the sky his eyes popped out!
This? What was going on? When did blue storage talisman become so commonplace that you could just casually grab a stack?
These black-rank blue storage talismans Qiao Mu were holding could now store up to 100 cubic meters.
Five storage talismans were more than sufficient to store all these items.
However, this generous display shocked the old sir.
Qiaoqiao hadn't even taken out her jade storage talismans to scare people yet. These were the unused blue talismans that she had drawn in the past, so she was using them first.
The old sir watched unblinklingly for a while. He walked up excitedly and carefully examined the talismans floating in mid-air.
"This, these are?" The old sir pointed tremblingly, "Black-rank storage talismans?"
The talisman energy infused in them was truly black-level!
Heavens, why did the little fellow have so many blue storage talismans?
The entire talisman patrician family had only successfully crafted 19 storage talismans, with only a single blue storage talisman.
