Chapter 517: You can go up the mountain of knives and down the sea of fire

This back and forth naturally led to meeting Dai Xiaoyao, who was visiting Dai Mu, several times, and he even learned quite a few of Tang Shan's "achievements" from Dai Xiaoyao's mouth.

Knowing that her son was already able to stand on his own, Tang Mu, as a mother, naturally wanted to see those industries. After obtaining Li Chen's permission, she and Dai Mu disguised themselves and went out of the palace together. Unexpectedly, they happened to run into Tang Shan's aunt, Tang Hongxiu, and were invited into her residence, but they didn't have time to chat before they had to come here to discuss the Tang family's affairs.

"Since Shan'er has his own grasp, then let it be so." Seeing Tang Shan so determined, Tang Hongxiu naturally couldn't say much.

Before she left, Tang Mu had repeatedly urged her not to let Tang Shan know about their whereabouts. She had promised this at the time, so she couldn't say much.

In Tang Hongxiu's eyes, the matter of Tang Shan's father involved a wide range of issues. Tang Mu should have her own arrangements. If she made decisions on her own, she might ruin the plan.

After the Tang family members discussed some details, Tang Hongxiu hurried back to her residence.

Three beauties who still had charm sat together in the lotus pond pavilion under the moonlight.

"Speaking of which, when I last met sister-in-law, Shan'er hadn't grown to my knees yet. It hasn't been easy for sister-in-law to raise Shan'er alone all these years. Fortunately, Shan'er is promising, and sister-in-law will have blessings to enjoy in the future."

Tang Hongxiu smiled and opened the conversation. The two hadn't seen each other for many years; saying there was no gap would be a lie. Facing a child's mother, the best way to pull closer the relationship was naturally to praise the other party's child.

"Hongxiu, are you teasing sister-in-law? I am clear about what Shan'er is like. If it weren't for the help of you, this aunt, and the Tang family, how could he have done these things?"

Tang Mu also responded with a smile, but in her heart, she was thinking about how to ask Tang Hongxiu if she had told Tang Shan about her whereabouts.

After all, Tang Mu was still relatively conservative, and being a thief with a guilty conscience, she was afraid that the matter of finding a "stepfather" for Tang Shan would be exposed.

"Sister-in-law is too modest. We are all one family. What's more, what Shan'er has done has allowed our entire Tang family to take a step forward."

Tang Hongxiu waved her hand, then pretended to continue inadvertently: "By the way, sister-in-law, is there any progress on my brother's matter? Thinking of my big brother still suffering, I feel uncomfortable in my heart. If there is anything I can help with, just say the word. Even if it's going up the mountain of knives or down the sea of fire, I won't refuse!"

Tang Hongxiu said this, of course, to urge Tang Mu to quickly find a way to release her brother. After all, the nephew is the continuation of the brother. What's more, only with Tang Father's strength can the Tang family truly take a step forward.

Tang Mu heard this and smiled awkwardly: "There is indeed progress, but this matter is very complicated, and I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve results in a short time."

Tang Mu, whose new world door had been opened by Li Chen, had her mind full of how to get Li Chen's favor these days. The matter of Tang Shan's dead ghost father had long been thrown to the back of her mind. Being mentioned now, she naturally didn't know how to deal with it.

Dai Mu, who had been sitting beside them without speaking, heard this and secretly cast her gaze toward Tang Hongxiu. After sizing up Tang Hongxiu, she couldn't help but nod secretly in her heart.

It had to be said that although Tang Hongxiu's figure was not as charming as hers and Tang Mu's, whether it was the slenderness that should be there or the stoutness that should be there, it was not weak. More importantly, there was a special greenness that had been baptized by time but had not been developed.

Dai Mu was very clear about why Dai Xiaoyao could gain Li Chen's appreciation. If she could follow the example, wouldn't she also be able to gain Li Chen's favor?

What's more, this was what she said herself: she could go up the mountain of knives and down the sea of fire!

Is this going up the mountain of knives and down the sea of fire? This is clearly enjoyment!

Tang Hongxiu suddenly froze, only feeling a chill for no reason in the bottom of her heart. She frowned and looked around, but couldn't figure out where this feeling came from.

Tang Mu was sitting opposite Tang Hongxiu. Seeing Tang Hongxiu's expression, she felt even more guilty. She hurriedly pretended to be tired and said: "Hongxiu, I suddenly feel a bit tired. Why don't I go back first?"

"Oh, the night is already deep, why don't you sleep here at my place? Could it be that sister-in-law dislikes me, this younger sister?" Tang Hongxiu hadn't asked clearly about Tang Shan's father's matter, so how could she let Tang Mu leave so easily? After some polite words, it finally ended with Tang Mu and Dai Mu staying at Tang Hongxiu's courtyard. ===== CHAPTER 518 =====
