Chapter 310: Chapter 308: Quite the Strong Taste_1

Everyone laughed helplessly at her words, as none of these old gentlemen would take the other’s advice. But now, the elder Mr. Mu had no choice but to take it!

"Su Man! How many moves have you taken back already, and you’re still taking them back? Have you no shame?" Mr. Mu shouted in frustration.

"What’s there to be embarrassed about? If you want to take a move back, you can too, come on..."

Su Qinglong truly infuriated Mr. Mu, who hadn’t been this angry in the last twenty-plus years!

Who would dare to make him this angry on a normal day? Apart from his unfilial grandson!

"Tell me... what will it take for you to be willing to marry your granddaughter off to my Mu Family?" Mr. Mu slammed his hand on the table and glared at Mr. Su across from him in a huff.

It seemed that Su Qinglong had been waiting for just this moment and immediately chuckled, "Sure, sure, you be my younger brother from now on, and I’ll be your elder brother!"

At these words, Mr. Mu trembled with fury, nearly flipping the chessboard in front of him!

"You wish!" Mr. Mu said angrily.

He was obviously older than him; why should he call this brute his elder brother!

"Otherwise, we wait until I’m in a good mood to discuss it again," Mr. Su said with an indifferent expression.

Mr. Mu could no longer stand the humiliation and suddenly slammed the table, "You go ahead and play, barbarian!" After speaking, he stood up in a huff, shook his sleeves, and without so much as a glance at Mr. Su, who was still seated, he huffed and walked towards Mu Yingchen and the others.

Seeing his furious state, Mr. Su burst into hearty laughter while sitting in his place, delighting in the effect he’d achieved!

--

After lunch, Mr. Su accompanied Yaoyao and Shanshan to bask in the sunshine in the back garden, with Su Wanxia also tagging along, occasionally frolicking with the two little ones.

Mr. Mu and Mu’s mother were peering over from not too far away when Mu Yingchen suddenly approached Mr. Mu.

"Grandfather..."

Upon seeing his expression, Mr. Mu’s face fell, realizing this kid must want something from him.

"Don’t beat around the bush, just tell me what it is," Mr. Mu said, feeling both helpless and annoyed.

"Aren’t you well acquainted with that old gentleman? Do you know of any special preferences he might have?" Mu Yingchen had to start by figuring out Mr. Su’s preferences, knowing he liked things that had an ancient charm wasn’t enough.

"You little rascal, when have you ever cared about your grandfather’s preferences?" Already in a foul mood, Mr. Mu was further enraged by the question.

"Grandfather, don’t get me wrong, isn’t this all for your sake? Do you really wish to address him as ’elder brother’? As far as I know, although you were both born in the same year, you are indeed half a year older than him," Mu Yingchen said with a look that meant they were on the same team.

Mr. Mu felt his anger subside somewhat, but he still looked at his grandson with a hint of suspicion, "Really?"

"Truer than true gold."

"You little..." Mr. Mu stretched out his finger and pointed at him.

Mu Yingchen chuckled softly, "Just think about it for me, what can make him relent? If he agrees to let me marry Wanxia, then won’t all these problems be solved?"

After hearing his words, Mr. Mu fell into deep thought, furrowing his brows for quite a while but still unable to think of anything that would tempt that brute.

Beauty tricks or the like were of no use to him.

After pondering for quite some time, he finally shifted his eyeballs.

Then he waved Mu Yingchen over and gestured for him to bring his ear closer.

Mu Yingchen raised an eyebrow, could there really be something?

Immediately, he leaned his ear in.

Old Master Mu’s eyes were full of mischievous glee, and then with some excitement and a bit of disdain, he murmured something to Mu Yingchen.

The more Mu Yingchen listened, the more surprised he became, and the smile in his eyes grew deeper.

"His old man’s taste is really strong..." Mu Yingchen said with a laugh as he moved his ear away, his face sporting a smile that seemed somewhat off.

"That’s for sure, Su Man is not like us literati and scholars when it comes to taste," Old Master Mu said with a face full of disdain.

"But..." Mu Yingchen began, then couldn’t help but frown.

"But what?" Old Master Mu asked back.

"But in that case, wouldn’t I also have to accompany the old man..." As he said this, Mu Yingchen’s face started to look distressed, although he was not picky, his tastes were not as strong as Su’s elder’s.

Old Master Mu now became the persuasive speaker, he patted Mu Yingchen on the shoulder with a sigh of what seemed like empathy, sincerely saying, "Ah, for the sake of your happiness, what’s eating a couple of stinky duck eggs?"

When Old Master Mu spoke the words "stinky duck eggs," a relentless mirth surged within him.

He knew some of Su Man’s special preferences, like his favorite, stinky duck eggs.

However, that Man was also a man who loved his face. When he was young and not yet famous, he could eat whatever he wanted, but after gaining status, he hardly ever ate that thing, afraid of being laughed at and tarnishing his authority as the head of the Qinglong Association.

But a dog can’t change its eating habits, and neither could Su Qinglong give up eating stinky duck eggs. He would bet that that weak dragon’s tastes were still the same!

At that time, he didn’t understand what was so delicious about those rotten duck eggs. He had ordered some to try, but upon smelling them, he didn’t even want to look twice, wondering how Su Qinglong’s tastes could be so strong!

Upon hearing Old Master Mu’s words, Mu Yingchen couldn’t help but stroke his own stomach involuntarily. It seemed that for the sake of his future happiness, he was going to have to compromise his stomach!

With this decision in mind, Mu Yingchen immediately ran to the kitchen to give instructions. When the kitchen staff heard that their young master wanted some stinky duck eggs, they were instantly stunned.

Although there were people who liked stinky duck eggs, such a thing had never before appeared in the Mu family’s kitchen.

Mu Yingchen, ignoring the surprised looks of everyone present, reiterated his instructions, then finally left the kitchen.

After leaving the kitchen, he couldn’t help but frown with some vexation. No, he felt he had to get used to that taste beforehand; otherwise, during dinner, he would inevitably give himself away. By then, it would be all for nothing like a wasted effort drawing water in a bamboo basket.

Turning around, he immediately told the kitchen staff to inform him as soon as the duck eggs arrived, further astonishing everyone. They couldn’t comprehend the charm of stinky duck eggs that had so captivated their young master.

Mu Yingchen spent the entire afternoon psyching himself up, and halfway through, someone from the kitchen really came over.

From a distance, he saw the kitchen staff heading his way. Fearing others might discover what he was up to, he immediately went to meet them.

"Young Master, that..." Upon seeing him, the staffer immediately began to speak excitedly.

"Hmm, got it, let’s go," Mu Yingchen quickly interrupted him, swiftly heading in the direction of the kitchen.
