It's good to exchange marriages. My sister eats coarse food while I wear gold and silver.

Cold sweat dripped down Patriarch Mu’s head. In fact, not many people knew about what happened back then.

If this were to be exposed today, his prestige as the clan leader would be shaken.

"Patriarch Mu, if you remain hesitant, Old Madam Mu will be in greater danger." Yuan Buwei was still putting pressure on Patriarch Mu.

"Patriarch, I have explained my conditions to you before. As long as you agree, I will naturally be a good head of the Mu family and lead my people to a new situation. Don't you want to be praised by the Mu clan members as the greatest patriarch in the history of the Mu family a hundred years later?" Becoming famous and making great achievements is the fantasy of every man. Patriarch Mu is the same. He wants to be a prestigious patriarch, who will be respected and missed by others, especially after his death.

"Your conditions are indeed not difficult, but your mother..."

"Since I am the head of the Mu family, if outsiders knew that my biological mother was alive but I didn't let her go home and even recognized a thief as my mother, it would definitely have a bad impact on the Mu family. Clan leader, even though I knew from the beginning that Shen Fengyue had wronged me, I have never blamed the clan members since the day I became the head of the family. I have contributed money and effort. Now I just want to reunite with my real family. Is this wrong?"

"Okay, I agree."

The words "donate money and labor" really made it impossible for Patriarch Mu to refuse: "But how do you arrange for your biological mother's identity? You can't just leave the old lady..."

"I am only Cong'er's mother. The position of the old lady of the Mu Mansion will always belong to Shen Fengyue."

After going around in circles, Shen Fengyue lost everything and was left with only an empty title.

"Take me to see Old Madam Mu, I will go and treat her."

Yuan Buwei had received many stroke patients in Yaowang Valley, so after confirming that Old Lady Mu had indeed suffered a stroke, she skillfully began to treat her.

After a stick of incense.

Old Mrs. Mu woke up slowly.

She raised her eyes and saw a lot of people gathered around the bed, but when her eyes fell on Nanny Feng.

She suddenly became excited.

But when she opened her mouth, no word came out.

Just, woooooooo.

"Mrs. Mu, please don't get excited. Your condition is quite serious. You have a crooked mouth and aphasia."

Not only did these words fail to calm Mrs. Mu, but they made her even more excited.

"General Shen, don't get excited. Don't worry. I will take care of your daily life in the future." Nanny Feng came up, took Old Lady Mu's hand, lowered her head and whispered in her ear with a voice that only two people could hear, "Shen Fengyue, I swear that if I can return to the Mu Mansion one day, I will definitely repay you double for the harm you did to me back then."

"woo woo woo woo……"

When Mrs. Mu heard this, her eyes widened immediately, and her other hand trembled as she reached for Mr. Mu's clothes.

"Mother, you are old, so just enjoy your retirement. I and I will take care of the affairs of the Mu Mansion." Mu Cong held Mrs. Mu's hand and patted the back of her hand gently.

“Uh, wow…”

Old Mrs. Mu looked at Patriarch Mu, but he avoided her gaze.

In an instant, she seemed to have all the strength drained out of her body, her eyes rolled back and she became dizzy again.

"Oh, why are you dizzy?"

"It's okay, it's just the result of a sudden blood attack. I'll give Madam Mu a few injections and she'll be fine."

While Yuan Buwei was treating Old Madam Mu, Bai Wei turned around and came to her son standing at the door and asked, "Where is Li Yue? Such a big thing happened in the Mu Mansion, why didn't she come out?"

"I heard that she went back to her parents' home and I don't know when she will be back."

"That's right. She and Mu Lang are divorced. It's not a good idea for her to stay in the Mu Mansion. What about your sister Mu Qing?" Bai Wei turned her head and looked around. "Why is she not here? Your father said a lot about her in the letter he wrote to me before."

Mu Yu thought that since they lived under the same roof, there would always be a chance for them to meet.

Then he briefly described Mu Qing's situation, especially her celebrations with the young marquis and the young mistress.

After hearing this, Bai Wei's anger rose: "So she has done so many immoral things? I wonder, has she lost her mind? Is the young marquis the only man left in the world? She is good at both literature and martial arts, so can't she find anyone better than the young marquis?"

"She loves the young marquis, just like you love your father."

"That's different. When I first met your father..." Bai Wei looked around, and then whispered in her son's ear, "I eavesdropped for a long time and learned that he hadn't married yet, but his family had already started looking for a woman for him. I thought that if I couldn't keep him, it would be fine to leave him a child."

Mu Yu looked sideways, looking at his biological mother in astonishment: "Did you originally want to leave the father and son?"

"Keep your voice down." Bai Wei covered her son's mouth with her hand. "Your father doesn't know about this. If he knew, he would definitely be angry with me. Let's not talk about him anymore. Let's continue talking about Mu Qing. She knew that the young marquis was already married, and the marriage was arranged by the emperor. Yu'er, tell me the truth, is there really nothing wrong with her brain?"

"She is just too obsessed. I tried to persuade her, but she just wouldn't listen." Mu Yu sighed, "My grandmother has placed high hopes on her since she was a child. She has always been the best among her peers. Suddenly, a young lady who is better than her and understands the young marquis better appeared. Naturally, she is upset."

"She's just jealous." Bai Wei hit the nail on the head. "She is short-sighted, and her mind is smaller than the eye of an embroidery needle. But she is Mu Lang's daughter after all, and we can't just ignore her, lest she cause even bigger trouble."

"After father and mother remarry, you, as the mistress of the Mu Mansion, will naturally have the responsibility to discipline her."

"There's no rush for the wedding ceremony. The old lady is still sick. We need to keep a low profile at this critical moment." Bai Wei turned her head to look at the situation at the bedside and couldn't help shrugging. "It seems that the affairs of the Mu Mansion are much more difficult to handle than those of the Bai Family Village. But there's nothing I can do. My son, husband, and mother-in-law are all here. I can only bite the bullet and go ahead."

"Mother is knowledgeable and experienced. I believe that she will be able to take on the position of mistress." Although it was the first time I met my mother, it seemed as if I had been with her countless times, and when I was with her, I felt especially relaxed.

"That's right. I can even handle your father, so the position of mistress is no problem for me." Bai Wei is an optimist. The more difficult the situation is, the more it can inspire her fighting spirit.

In the blink of an eye.

Late at night.

Master Mu arranged for his clansmen to leave, and the huge Mu Mansion suddenly became quiet.

He returned to the house where he had lived before.

The house where they originally lived was messed up by Li Yue. All the valuable things were taken away by her, even the bedding on the bed.

"Squeak."

He turned his head and saw Bai Wei coming in.

Mu Cong, who was over fifty years old, seemed to have seen his backbone, and his suppressed emotions were released all at once.

"Come." Bai Wei understood her husband very well and opened her arms. "I've sent everyone away. I'll lend you my shoulder to lean on. Cry if you want."
