章 698: 276 Gathered (Second Update)_1

Mu Yining caught sight of Ji Heng walking ahead, a long smoking pipe in hand, with Tang Ming by his side.

Mu Xiangguang hadn't come, which Mu Yining had expected.

As the cold wind blew, they could hear Tang Ming's cheerful voice, "Grandpa, look, that duck can fly!"

Ji Heng looked up and smiled as he took a puff of smoke, "That's a Spotted Goose."

The Mu Family's estate was located in a garden area, where many protected wild birds would take refuge, and Ji Heng recognized at first glance what bird it was.

Next to him, the butler followed on Ji Heng's left, uncharacteristically silent.

Mu Yining was somewhat astonished at the butler's neglect and straightened her clothes before approaching Ji Heng, "Uncle, you're here."

When she looked up, she finally saw Bai Lian and Jiang Fulai, who were lagging behind.

Bai Lian was wrapped in a green cloak, holding a box made of ebony in her left hand, tapping it leisurely as she chatted idly with the person beside her.
