Chapter 71 I Don’t Want to Be the Head of the Mu Mansion Anymore

Inheriting the Mu Mansion is definitely a great temptation for Mu Qing.

"grandmother!"

Mu Qing suddenly knelt down and looked up at her grandmother who had raised her since she was a child: "No matter what happened in the past, no matter what you did, I only know that you have raised Qing'er. Without your cultivation, Qing'er would have married long ago and stayed in the house all day, fighting with her husband's concubines for the little love she had from him. And now I am free and unrestrained, I can gallop on horseback, and I can travel the world with a sword. This is all thanks to my grandmother, so..."

She turned her head and scanned the faces of everyone present one by one: "If anyone bullies you, Qing'er will fight to the death with that person!"

"Good boy, get up quickly."

Old Madam Mu pulled her granddaughter up from the ground and looked at her son: "Mu Cong, since you don't recognize me as your mother, tomorrow I will gather all the members of the royal family, abolish your status as the head of the family, and appoint Qing'er as the head of the Mu Mansion."

Although Old Madam Mu was recuperating from illness every day, someone would regularly report to her every move of the Mu family. It was worthwhile for her to invest a lot of money in the royal family, so the Mu family had a very comfortable life in recent years.

"That's perfect. I've long since stopped wanting to be the head of the Mu Mansion. I'll pack up my things and move out as soon as I get back." Mu Cong had been doing business for so many years and had already achieved financial freedom. He had bought many houses in and outside the city. Although they were not as good as the Mu Mansion, he was very happy not to have to face his enemies hypocritically every day.

"No, no, master, what nonsense are you talking about? You are the head of the Mu Mansion, how can you move out?" Madam Mu was anxious. If her husband was not the head of the family anymore and was moving out, then did she have to follow him and no longer be the mistress of the Mu Mansion?

"Li Yue, you always put profit first. Your daughter is the head of the family, so you naturally have to follow her. As for you and me..." Mu Cong sneered, "Let's get a divorce."

"Master, what are you talking about?" Madam Mu looked at her husband in disbelief. "You want to divorce me? What did I do wrong that you want to divorce me?"

"Li Yue, you have been using money to support your parents' family behind my back for many years. As the mistress of the Mu Mansion, you beat or scold the servants when you are not satisfied, and you also deduct their monthly wages. When you go out to attend various banquets, you either quarrel with others or make a fool of yourself. If I hadn't settled everything behind your back, do you think you could have such a comfortable life?"

"Mu Cong, what do you mean by this? I am your legitimate wife, married in a grand ceremony. Aren't all the things you said the things you should do as a husband? Moreover, after I married into the family, I contributed all my dowry. My family is in trouble, shouldn't I help as a daughter?" Madam Mu's emotions were a little out of control. "You, you also switched my son, and made me raise that little bitch's son as my own son for 19 years. I haven't even settled the score with you yet, and you want to divorce me? No way!"

"Yu'er was sent to the old house when he was five years old. You just talked about him at most, but I never saw you go to the old house to see him. How come you said you raised him for nineteen years?" Mu Cong was now terrifyingly calm and strong. "Li Yue, you'd better think about it. If you don't divorce me, once my name is crossed out from the Mu family's genealogy, you won't be able to stay in the Mu Mansion and be your rich wife and live a carefree life."

Madam Mu's heart trembled, and she looked up at her mother-in-law and daughter.

"Mother."

Mu Qing got up and walked towards her mother, holding her hand and said, "Qing'er needs you, and so does grandma. I am the head of the family, and you are still the mistress of the Mu Mansion. No one can shake your position."

Mrs. Mu was somewhat moved by her daughter's words, but she was already at this age, and if she divorced her husband, she would definitely be criticized.

"Li Yue, men can have three wives and four concubines, so why can't women divorce their husbands and live their own lives?" Old Madam Mu straightened up, her wrinkled face showing her pride. "Without a man, the three of us can still support the huge Mu Mansion!"

Madam Mu lowered her head. She had been accustomed to a life of having everything provided for her, a life of being high and mighty and being flattered. If she followed her husband, she would become a merchant's wife, and would be inferior to others wherever she went.

So, she gritted her teeth and looked at Mu Cong: "Okay, let's divorce, Mu Cong, don't regret it."

Mu Cong had no regrets at all, he was so happy that it was too late.

He turned around and walked to the front of Marquis Wanning, bowing: "Marquis Wanning, please be a witness that from today on, I, Mu Cong, will have no connection with the Mu Mansion. I also thank you and your wife for taking my mother in and giving her a place to stay."

Yuan Buwei saw that they had already discussed it.

He walked to the door and welcomed Mu Yu, who had been standing outside.

"Yu, Yu'er?"

"Big brother?"

Mu Yu ignored them and walked up to Mu Cong: "Father, I am useless and I am a burden to you."

"Yu'er, you've suffered."

"Master Mu, don't worry, I can cure your son's illness."

Yuan Buwei walked up to the father and son and said, "Because of my previous bad experience in the Mu Mansion, I planned not to treat your son anymore, but the situation is different now. You are Nanny Feng's son, and your son is Nanny Feng's grandson. You have severed your relationship with the Mu family, so I will definitely cure him. And I think after he has completely recovered, if he is interested in joining the army..."

Wan Ninghou rolled his eyes and immediately replied: "You can come to the Swift Wind Camp."

"Marquis Wanning, can I join the Swift Wind Camp?" There was shock in Mu Yu's eyes. He had fantasized before that if he were not a sickly person, he would also join the army, fight on the battlefield, and become a real man who could defend his country.

"Of course, one of the criteria for selecting people in the Wind Camp is integrity and good character."

It was obvious that Marquis Wanning's words were implying Old Madam Mu and Mu Qing.

"I disagree!"

Mu Qing shouted out loud. Once Big Brother joined the Gale Camp, everyone would know the relationship between him and him, and there would definitely be comparisons: "Every soldier in the Gale Camp has gone through layers of tests. If Big Brother is given a backdoor, what would those soldiers who worked so hard to get through these tests think?"

"Is that so? Then tomorrow I will tell everyone that it was your grandmother who asked me to let you, a woman, join the Swift Wind Camp. For the sake of fairness and to appease everyone, I will expel you from the Swift Wind Camp?"

"Marquis Wanning, are you targeting me on purpose? Besides, I am now entering the Swift Wind Camp because of the Emperor's order. If you dare to expel me from the Swift Wind Camp, you are disobeying the Emperor's order."

"Ah!"

Marquis Wan Ning was so angry that he laughed and really wanted to strangle her to death.

"Qing'er, forget it. Yu'er is your half brother after all. We don't know when he will recover from his illness. Giving him a chance to live is also the generosity you should have as the head of the Mu family."
