Mr. Li, please stop abusing me. My wife is getting engaged.

Xiao Muyang pouted his lower lip and blew the loose hair on his forehead, looking a bit naughty.

Su Jinyan felt a little guilty. She didn't know how long he had been standing in the side hall, and whether he had heard what she said.

Li Zeyi was very surprised to see Xiao Muyang: "Why didn't you tell me you were here, kid?"

"If I had told you in advance, I wouldn't have been able to hear your wonderful conversation."

"What do you think, sister-in-law?" Xiao Muyang emphasized his tone, and every word he uttered was filled with sarcasm and dissatisfaction.

Everyone was puzzled and thought that what Su Jinyan said just now happened to be heard by Xiao Muyang, causing Xiao Muyang to misunderstand her.

Li Zeyi quickly explained: "Zi Zi just said that to comfort Grandpa, but you are so erratic that we have to explain to you to prevent Grandpa from being sad."

"Zi Zi?" Xiao Muyang curled his lips and smiled sarcastically.

Then he walked to the empty seat next to Su Jinyan and sat down: "Sister-in-law, do you think what my brother said is right?"

Su Jinyan felt very uneasy. She had seen Xiao Muyang's thick skin and casualness before, and Xiao Muyang's thinking was not something a normal human like her could guess.

She really didn't understand whether Xiao Muyang was trying to embarrass her or was joking, and her hands were clenched tightly.

In the cool air-conditioned room, Su Jinyan's palms were clenched so hard that cold sweat appeared on them, and she didn't know how to answer for a long time.

Xiao Muyang just looked at her with a smile, but his smile had an ambiguous meaning.

Li Muzhong looked at Xiao Muyang with some dissatisfaction.

"Kid, why do you make jokes about everyone? Your sister-in-law just said a few casual words. Are you really angry with your sister-in-law? You have no manners." Li Muzhong said angrily.

"Grandpa, you know that your grandson has never been well behaved." Xiao Muyang smiled faintly, with a bit of mischief, and spoke nonchalantly.

He always spoke and acted in a frivolous manner, and everyone just regarded him as a child who had not grown up and was playful. No one cared to find out the deeper meaning of his words spoken in a joking tone.

The maid came over to remind them to eat, and everyone walked towards the main hall.

The huge dining table was filled with dishes. Li Zeyi asked Su Jinyan to sit down, and then sat next to her.

Li Zeyi and Li Muzhong sat opposite each other. Xiao Muyang sat down calmly beside Li Muzhong and sat opposite Su Jinyan.

Li Muzhong looked at the family dinner scene and said happily: "I used to eat alone, and occasionally you two boys came to accompany me."

"But today is different. Today we have Miss Jinyan again. Grandpa is very happy."

"Grandpa, eat more if you're happy." As he said that, Xiao Muyang put a piece of food into Li Muzhong's bowl.

Li Muzhong looked at the happy scene of the family and felt even happier.

Butler Chen was also smiling happily when he saw the harmonious scene of the family.

"Old Li told me before that after I find a girl, she would be of the same age as the young master and I could introduce her to him. I didn't expect that the girl would have a connection with my master..."

Su Jinyan was shocked when she heard it, and the spoon in her hand fell into the bowl with a crisp sound.

Li Zeyi turned his head to look at Su Jinyan, gently shook Su Jinyan's hand, and then looked at Butler Chen with a warning light in his eyes.

Butler Chen felt a chill on his back, realized that his words were inappropriate, and immediately fell silent.

However, Xiao Muyang smiled and took over the topic, asking Li Muzhong: "Oh, Grandpa still has this idea, what do you think if Grandpa had found——"

Xiao Muyang paused, glanced at Su Jinyan calmly, then retracted his gaze and continued casually: "If we find Miss Su and bring us together, will she not choose my brother?"

"Mu Yang——" Li Zeyi shouted harshly, anger flashing in his eyes.

"Grandpa, you see, I was just joking. You see, my brother really can't help being teased..." Xiao Muyang returned to his usual harmless look, his tone a little coquettish.

Everyone thought he was just being childish and joking.

Li Muzhong patted Xiao Muyang on the head and said, "They say she's your sister-in-law from now on, so you can still joke around with her?"

"Oh, grandpa, you're not my sister-in-law yet? I won't open it anymore in the future." Xiao Muyang said coquettishly.

"Grandpa, I plan to get engaged to Zizi at the end of this month." Li Zeyi held Su Jinyan's hand and said solemnly to Li Muzhong.

Su Jinyan was a little surprised. She looked up at Li Zeyi. Seeing Li Zeyi's determined eyes, Su Jinyan nodded happily.

"Okay, it has been a tradition since ancient times to start a family and build a career. Now that you are determined to start a family, grandpa is deeply comforted." Li Muzhong looked kind.

"But my Li family has a wide range of friends and relatives. Your engagement is a big deal, and you also have to take care of the woman's relatives. The end of the month is a bit tight."

"I'll ask a master to calculate an auspicious day for next month so that grandpa can take advantage of this time to make arrangements..." Li Muzhong said.

Li Zeyi asked Su Jinyan what she thought, and they both nodded with satisfaction.

Li Muzhong smiled happily.

"Okay, okay, my Li family hasn't had such a big happy event in a long time..." Li Muzhong exclaimed happily.

Li Muzhong wanted to say something else, but Xiao Muyang handed him a mouthful of soup and said, "Grandpa, take a break first and drink some soup."

Even Xiao Muyang's interruption could not suppress Li Muzhong's inner joy.

After the dinner, Li Muzhong and Li Zeyi had a great conversation about the engagement party.

Su Jinyan sat obediently beside him, her posture straight, dignified and generous.

The pearl flowers on her head swayed gently, her three thousand black hair hung around her waist as soft as brocade, and her fair face was bright and charming.

Compared to Li Muzhong and Li Zeyi who were talkative, Xiao Muyang was silent.

Su Jinyan noticed that someone was looking at her. When she turned around, she saw Xiao Muyang was resting with his eyes closed.

Su Jinyan turned around and breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it was just her illusion.

After a long time, the conversation between Li Muzhong and Li Zeyi ended.

The two of them went away hand in hand, and Li Muzhong watched them leave with a smile on his face.

It was not until the two left that Xiao Muyang slowly opened his eyes, looking as if he had just woken up from a dream.

"Child, why did you fall asleep here? What if you catch a cold? Go back upstairs and rest if you are tired."

"You're so old and still can't take care of yourself." Li Muzhong scolded.

"Grandpa, I'm going back." Xiao Muyang slowly opened his eyes, looking like he had just woken up. He stretched his body and said naturally.

"What? Boy, you don't want to accompany grandpa anymore?" Li Muzhong complained.

"Grandpa, I have something else to do. I'll accompany you later." Xiao Muyang said coquettishly, then trotted out the door.

"This kid..." Li Muzhong said helplessly, "Why is he still so playful? He will never grow up."

After Su Jinyan left, Li Muzhong opened Su Jinyan's brocade box and found a delicately carved cinnabar bracelet.

"It is said that cinnabar has a calming effect on the mind and spirit." Butler Chen said after looking at the bracelet.

"He's a thoughtful child." Li Muzhong said.

"Now that Zeyi's matter has been settled, it's time to find someone for Yangyang."

"That child is very playful. We need to be more careful and find a steady and capable girl to bring them together..." Li Muzhong sighed.
