This somewhat familiar name and location caused Madam Mu to abruptly stop in her tracks.
She frowned and started to think about where she had heard the word "Zi" before.
The sound of the word "Jin".
At this time, Mu Cheng had already entered the courtyard. After a few seconds, even his back could not be seen.
Without being summoned, Mrs. Mu did not dare to stay here any longer.
She did not have time to think clearly and quickly left.
After returning to her room, Madam Mu thought about it for a long time before she finally recalled it.
Didn't the name of the adopted daughter of the Family Ying in Hu City sound the same?
But how could an adopted daughter's name come out of Mu Cheng's mouth?
It sounded like Mu Heqing was going to look for her personally.
Mrs. Mu felt that it was impossible.
But she had always been cautious and would not let go of any clues.
After thinking about it for a long time, Madam Mu called Hu City.
She did not ask about the Family Ying, but directly asked Mu Chen Zhou.
After all, she wanted accurate information.
If the Family Ying was exaggerated, she would not be able to make a judgment.
When he heard the name "Ying Zijin", Mu Chen Zhou was stunned.
"Her?" Then his tone became much calmer. "She is not a big deal. Her confidence comes from the Zhong Family and the Fu Family."
The Zhong Family. Mrs. Mu knew what was going on.
Ying Zijin was the adopted daughter of the Family Ying, but Old Mr. Zhong treated her very well.
She had never cared about the affairs of other families.
But the Fu Family?
Mrs. Mu remembered that when Mu Heqing was young, he had stayed in Hu City for a period of time and had some connections with the Fu Family.
Just as she was thinking about it, Mu Chen Zhou said, "The Fu Family has a few young masters. The seventh one is a playboy, but Master Fu dotes on him the most, so he is quite arrogant."
It was no secret that he came to Hu City from the capital. It had long been known in the circle of celebrities in Hu City.
Mu Chen Zhou did not like to socialize, but he did not resist, so he became friends with a lot of rich young masters.
Naturally, he also heard about the incident that happened at the Century Mall.
He could even order his elder brother and sister-in-law around. He was indeed spoiled by Old Mr. Zhong.
He was not interested in getting to know such a person.
Mu Chen Zhou felt the same about Ying Zijin.
But more than that, he was disappointed..
"Ying Zijin is with him, but her grades are quite good in school and she is quite popular."
Hearing this, Madam Mu did not ask further. She knew what was going on.
She knew that she did not have much ability. She would not be able to survive long if she relied on others.
This kind of person did not deserve to have anything to do with the Family Mu.

The sun was setting in the west. Gradually, it sank below the sea level.
More and more people came to the island, especially the bounty area. There were many people going in and out of it.
Ying Zijin looked around. She did not find the herbs she needed, so she did not stay there for long.
After parting with Yunshan, she took off the human skin mask Fu Yunshen gave her and put on another set of makeup.
Although it was just a simple disguise, it was enough to fool the detection equipment.
When she went to Norton University, she got a few new identification cards and went through the customs smoothly.
However, two hours had already passed, and Diwu Yue and Diwu Feng were still following behind her.
But she did not chase them away.
"By the way, Miss, what's your name?" Diwu Yue finally remembered something important. "I haven't seen you on this island. Did you just come here?"
Ying Zijin did not answer. Instead, she looked up. "How long have you been here?"
There were many permanent residents on the island.
But to get a permanent resident certificate, one had to have more than 100,000 growth points in the NOK forum.
Growth points were consumables. It took a long time to accumulate, but it was consumed very quickly.
"It's not long. It's only been two months." Diwu Yue waved her hand and sighed sadly. "But it's been so long, and I haven't earned enough money to go home."
She was very disheartened. "Brother, the people here are really not easy to fool. They are not like when we were in the capital. Those idiots were really good at cheating people. It's easy to get 100,000 yuan."
Diwu Feng patted his clothes, which were no different from a beggar's. He looked unfathomable and did not say anything.
"Miss, don't mind him." Diwu Yue held her forehead. "My brother has some problems with his brain. He's slow to react."
Ying Zijin nodded. "You have two siblings?"
Although Diwu Yue's personality was jumpy, she was definitely not stupid.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have closed down the fortune-telling stall so easily.
"Yes." Diwu Yue counted with her fingers. "I have a brother called Diwu Hua and a sister called Diwu Xue."
Ying Zijin glanced at her.
This way of naming was no doubt rubbish.
"My brother and I were thrown here by my grandfather." Diwu Yue did not hide anything. "He asked us to train here. Miss, if you hadn't generously transferred 500 yuan to me, my brother and I would have starved to death today."
Ying Zijin was silent for a moment.
She remembered something from a long time ago.
The last time she was on Earth, she had only stayed in Hua for less than three years.
She had only gone there temporarily before she left.
At that time, it was still the dynasty period, but it was already close to the end.
She had taken in a few disciples and passed down some of her abilities.
One of them was Diwu Shaoxuan.
Divination was not something that could be understood just by learning and reading books such as Zhou Yi and Plum Blossom Divination.
Like ancient martial arts and ancient medicine, it required talent.
Diwu Shaoxuan was extremely talented in divination. He could even deduce major events such as the fate of a country.
But at the same time, because of peering into the future or changing the cause and effect, the lifespan of a diviner was also very short.
She had already seen Diwu Shaoxuan's lifespan when she first saw him.
36 years old.
It was too difficult to change the lifespan, especially for the diviner himself.
If the diviner wanted to change their lifespan, the lifespan of their close relatives would be correspondingly reduced, and they would also suffer undeserved disasters.
Therefore, generally speaking, diviners would not do this.
However, when she left Earth, Diwu Shaoxuan was only in his early twenties. She did not know what happened after that.
But now, she still could not calculate things that were so long ago.
Ying Zijin turned her head. "I've never heard of the name Diwu Shaoxuan."
"Diwu Shaoxuan? So familiar. " Diwu Yue scratched her head and bumped Diwu Feng's arm. "Brother, who is it? Do you remember?"
After a full 30 seconds, Diwu Feng finally reacted.
He spoke very slowly, so anxious that Diwu Yue wanted to slap him. "Ancestor."
"Ah, yes, yes, ancestor!" With this reminder, Diwu Yue also remembered. "He is my great-grandfather's great-grandfather. I don't know how many great-grandfathers there are, but they all died young. Sigh, forget it. Anyway, our family has never lived long. My grandfather can't even get out of bed."
She blinked. "Miss, how do you know the name of our ancestor?"
Although in the capital, the Diwu family was as famous as the Nie family and Family Mu.
But in fact, in the past ten years, fewer and fewer people knew about the Diwu family. Many people even thought that they were liars.
She and Diwu Feng were the direct descendants of the Diwu family, which was the bloodline of Diwu Shaoxuan.
"I calculated it."
"…"
The corner of Diwu Yue's mouth twitched. "Miss, you really look like a quack."
"It's okay." After confirming, Ying Zijin's eyebrows relaxed a little, and she was generous. "If you want to go back to Hua City, I can give you a ride for free."
**
Hua City, Hu City.
Since the last time she was locked up in the detention center for 15 days and received a warning from Ying Tianlu, Zhong Manhua had been quiet for a long time.
But even if Zhong Manhua wanted to hide this matter, the news of her being locked up in the detention center spread to many people.
These days, those rich ladies who used to curry favor with her took a detour when they saw her.
Zhong Manhua had never been wronged like this.
However, Ying Tianlu ignored her.
She had been talking to Ying Yuexuan every day for the past few days.
Even Ying Yuexuan was annoyed by Zhong Manhua's words, but she could not refuse.
"Mom, my sister is not in school. I've looked for her. You did that kind of thing, so don't bother her." Ying Yuexuan endured and said respectfully, "Can you not be so prejudiced? Most of the things you know are probably just a few words from others. "
"Yes, I know. It's my fault for being prejudiced, but can you blame me?" Zhong Manhua was still sad when she mentioned it. "She's my biological daughter, but she's not as good as you. I can't teach her. How is it wrong for me to hope that she will become a phoenix?"
Outside the door, Ying Tianlu's hand paused on the door.
