Chapter 461 Find out about Mo Mo
Of course, if she just wanted to find out some information, it would be fine. After all, she had helped him before. Although the reward was marriage, it was a way for both parties to get rid of trouble. This marriage was more like a transaction, and it was not purely to help her.
However, since you are looking for it, you naturally have to ask in more detail.
Si He didn't know what he was thinking. At this moment, she frowned and thought seriously. After all, they had not seen each other for more than ten years, and she didn't know how old Mo Mo was now?
Because it grows faster than ordinary snakes. She had been sleeping for more than ten years before, and when she woke up, it had grown from a small snake into a giant snake, its body as big as her waist. Now that so much time has passed, is it twice as thick as before?
Thinking back to the size of its giant snake mother, if nothing unexpected happens, it is estimated that it may indeed be twice as big as before.
Yue Fuli saw that she had been thinking for a long time but had not given an answer. Is this question difficult to answer?
At this time, Si He looked at Yue Fuli and raised her hand to gesture towards him, "I guess it might be this big."
The hand she gestured with was as big as an ordinary basin!
If he hadn't seen the black scales as big as copper coins before, he might have thought she was talking nonsense.
If this snake is really that thick, it would be an unprecedented giant snake!
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Si He thought he didn't believe her. She wasn't too sure herself, because she was just estimating. Logically, it would probably grow that big, so she said, "It used to be this big."
As she spoke, she gestured again, and the circle she was measuring with her hands shrank considerably, seemingly larger than the plate. She continued, "It has a special body and grows very fast. I haven't seen it in years, but I guess it might be this big now."
He asked, “How many years have been lost?”
Upon hearing this, Si He couldn't help but pursed her lips. This question was really difficult to answer, mainly because her identity limited the answer. Moreover, she had just gestured and estimated Mo Mo's size. If the time was shorter, the growth rate would be outrageous, and no one would believe it!
But it would not be appropriate to say that she was lost for a long time, after all, her age is there.
She suddenly felt a little regretful for letting him find out the news. Although she didn't want to hide it from him, there were some things that really shouldn't be known to him right now.
She was silent for a while, then replied with a guilty conscience: "Probably... seven or eight years."
She estimated that this time was more appropriate, because Guo Jiaqu was exiled to Qingmu City when he was about eight years old, and he was seventeen this year.
Yue Fuli stared at her with his deep eyes, and he could tell that she was not telling the truth. However, he did not delve into it and asked again: "What if you find it? Are you sure it will still listen to you? Can you control it?"
According to her, she was only nine or ten years old when the giant snake was lost. How could she be so young at that time and control such a big snake?
And judging from the time, she didn't spend much time with the snake.
He asked several questions in a row, and although he spoke casually, there was still a sense of testing in his words.
Si He looked into his scrutinizing eyes, feeling somewhat helpless. She could only say, "My master raised it since it was young. It's very intelligent. Although I haven't been with it for a long time, it listens to me very well. I'm confident I can control it."
Actually, the word "control" is not appropriate. She didn't treat it as a pet, but since he asked her, she could only say that.
"It was lost in the Tianshan Mountains. I think it might have been injured and drifted along the river, unable to find its way back."
As she spoke, she lowered her eyes, feeling a little sad.
She hoped it was just drifting out there, not trapped in the underground currents, or...
If she had not met Yue Fuli before and then been trapped and unable to escape because of her marriage, she might have taken the map and gone to the riverside to gather information.
Now that her marriage with Yue Fuli was settled, she naturally had to start looking for Mo Mo's whereabouts.
Yue Fuli said: "I will arrange for someone to investigate."
"Thank you, husband."
She spoke in a familiar and intimate manner, and looked well-behaved.
He calmly looked away and asked, "Is there anything else?"
She shook her head and said, "No more."
He stood up and was about to leave, but before leaving, he said, "The servants in the mansion are all experienced and know the rules. You can give them whatever you want. The steward will send another batch of maids tomorrow. You can choose as you like."
Because a group of Guo family maids were sent away halfway, and the rest were placed in by Princess Wei, it was natural to add some new people.
"it is good."
She didn't thank him again, but stood up as well, a faint smile on her face.
"I still have some official business to attend to. You should settle down earlier and don't have to wait for me."
After he finished speaking, he walked out, and soon his figure disappeared into the night.
Si He looked towards the door, and after a while, she looked away and sighed silently in her heart.
When I went to bed at night, he didn't come back.
He was still avoiding her after all, but it wasn't surprising. After all, he had been like this at the post station. Before, in the palace, he had only stayed in the same room with her because he was worried about rumors. Now that she was in his territory, she naturally had fewer concerns.
take it easy.
I had a good night's sleep, but I didn't see him at breakfast the next morning. I heard that he had gone out on official business.
After Si He had breakfast, the housekeeper of the mansion asked the pawnshop to send a group of maids for her to choose from.
She didn't know much about choosing people, so she just chose based on her personal preference, picking some maids who were more pleasing to the eye and looked honest.
After choosing the maid, Si He originally planned to walk around the mansion and get familiar with it, because it was indeed not small. After all, it used to be the main house of the Yue family.
But when she casually asked Gao You about the situation in Wucheng, she changed her mind and decided to go out.
Because there is a Ruyuan Tower in Wucheng.
Ruyuanlou is an auction house, but it also sells information. As long as you can pay, you can collect any information. Of course, this does not include the private information of powerful people, nor does it involve court affairs.
Si He thought about it and decided to go.
Although Yue Fuli had agreed to help her get information, it was always good to have another channel to get information. She also thought that if Mo Mo really appeared in the riverside area, as long as the news spread, interested people would look for him, and it would be useless for her to keep a low profile.
After all, although it is a giant snake, people who know the business know its value. When it was in Tianshan in the past, many people wanted to hunt it.
The sun was scorching hot today. Si He changed into casual clothes, put on a veil hat, and went out with Gao You and Gao Zi. However, because of their different identities now, they were followed by a team of guards, making for a large group.
She had no objection to this, as it would save her from more trouble.
However, when they reached the gate, they saw Yue Fuli returning with his subordinates, accompanied by several officials-looking people, who seemed to be discussing official business.
"Husband."
Si He lifted the curtain of her veil and bowed to him politely.
