Destroy the scumbag husband, beat the bitch, the reborn legitimate daughter overturns the entire cap
Chapter 105 They're coming to our door!
"What nonsense are you talking about? What thieves? Who dares to call them thieves?" The boy's tone was extremely domineering and arrogant. After a moment, he seemed to realize that it was a bit inappropriate. "Most of the gold and silver jewelry is marked. It's not worth it to melt it down and make new ones. So, doesn't Xiao Nuan want silver right now? Let's see how much real gold and silver the Song family has right now. Get it all for me to put her mind at ease."
The young man in blue swallowed hard and said with some difficulty, "Master, are you sure you're not mistaken? Sending real gold and silver? From what I see, that Miss Mu isn't short of money!"
"What do you know? Little Nuan wants to do her own thing and doesn't want to use the Mu family's money. Besides, didn't you see how obsessed this little girl is with medicine?"
The young man in blue rolled his eyes. "Master, please forgive my bluntness, but you treat Miss Mu so well, but she may not know it! Right now, she considers that Young Master Chu her savior."
"So what? She'd find out sooner or later anyway. Besides, do you think she didn't know someone secretly came to her rescue, or that even her maid didn't know? The place I was hiding was completely opposite to the direction Chu Rong came from!"
"But even if the maid knows it's you, she can't be sure it's you! Now, what was supposed to be a chance to be a benefactor has turned into a benefit for that Chu Rong!"
"Tch! I don't care about benefactors or anything like that. What I want isn't some kind of debt of gratitude. Alright, you wouldn't understand anyway. Go on, I'm hungry."
"Yes, master."
The young man in blue ladled out a bowl of soup for his master to have first, and then hurriedly went to instruct people to prepare other dishes.
When Mu Xin Nuan woke up the next day, she felt refreshed, as if she had just had a long dream the night before!
When Granny Yu came in to serve her, she saw that the young lady's complexion was rosy and she was full of energy, and she was finally relieved. She quickly helped the young lady finish washing up and then began to comb her hair.
"Miss, what should we do with this jar of hair oil?"
Mu Xin Nuan glanced at the oily hair. "I don't like this smell. It's too strong. You can decide what to do with it, Granny."
"Yes, Miss." Granny Yu continued combing her hair, and when she was putting on the jewelry, she opened the dressing case. "Oh! Miss, this honey-colored crystal hairpin, I don't think I've ever seen it before. Do you remember which master bestowed it upon you?"
Mu Xin Nuan was also a little curious. She took the hairpin and looked at it again and again, but she couldn't find any clues. She suddenly remembered Chu Rong's unease when he was here last night. Could it be that he secretly slipped it in when he came to visit her?
The more Mu Xin Nuan thought about it, the more she felt it was true. Ordinary people probably had never even seen such a precious hairpin, let alone given it away as a gift.
Seeing the slight embarrassment on her young mistress's face, Granny Yu quickly guessed who had given it to her. The hairpin hadn't been there before she left last night, but it had reappeared overnight; it must have been given to her by Young Master Chu, who had come to visit her last night.
"Miss, would you like to wear it?"
Mu Xin Nuan shook her head and put the hairpin back into her dressing case. "This hairpin is quite valuable. I am still so young, it is really not appropriate for me to wear something so conspicuous. Besides, Father has only recently been promoted to Minister of Works. Even when he goes out, he should not be too ostentatious, lest he attract resentment."
“Miss is right. Master is only in his early thirties, yet he has already risen to the position of Minister of Works. His future prospects are certainly limitless!”
After Mu Xin Nuan finished washing up, she went to pay her respects to the old lady. Naturally, she heard many comforting words from the old lady. Of course, this was mainly because the old lady had protected Mu Qing Yuan the night before, which is why the old lady was so kind.
After Mu Xin Nuan agreed to each of her requests, she quietly withdrew. She figured the old lady's smile would soon fade. And not only the old lady, but Mu Xin Yao herself would likely be burning with rage soon!
Mu Xin Nuan accompanied Li Shi to do needlework in Jin Yuan. Sure enough, in the afternoon, the steward of the mansion came to report that people from the Song family had arrived.
When Li heard this news, she didn't move, but just sneered, "So they invited him to the old lady's courtyard?"
"Yes, Madam. I saw the person just enter the backyard, so I came to inform you first."
Mu Xin Nuan smiled faintly. Now all the servants in the manor have become smarter and know who the real masters are. If there is any disturbance, there is no need for Mother to send anyone to investigate. Soon someone will bring the news to our door!
"Hmm. You're very thoughtful. Do your job well, and I certainly won't treat you unfairly." After saying this, Madam Li gave a wink, and a maid handed her a thick purse. The steward happily accepted it and then left.
"Mother, I imagine Grandmother will send someone to invite you soon. What do you think?"
"Ignore him. Someone, bring the second young master here. Tell him the eldest young lady wants to see if his calligraphy has become rusty these days."
"Yes, ma'am."
Mu Xin Nuan understood. Her mother knew that Mu Qing Yuan was clinging to her, and as soon as she heard that she was in Jin Yuan, she would definitely rush over. If the people sent by the old lady saw that the second young master was also there, it would be inappropriate to mention the Song family in front of the second young master, right?
When the old lady of Rongyuan heard Xu Huilan tearfully recounting Song Tao's grievances, she was immediately stunned!
She naturally knew about the attack on Mu Xinnuan and Mu Qingyuan last night, but she never expected that it was all arranged by Song Tao! Although Xu Huilan now insists that this matter has nothing to do with Song Tao, how could the old lady not understand?
If it's truly unrelated, why bother asking yourself for help?
"Aunt, my husband is your own nephew, and the only hope of the Song family. Are you really going to just stand by and watch him be wrongly accused, imprisoned, and lose all his achievements? What if someone puts pressure on him in the meantime? I'm afraid it will be my husband who suffers the consequences?"
At this point, Xu Huilan cried even more bitterly, "I'm afraid my husband will never see you again!"
Upon hearing this, the old lady was immediately stunned! Song Tao was the only heir of the Song family! If he died, the younger generation would inevitably be affected. Leaving aside the Song family's reputation, his children would likely be barred from officialdom because of Song Tao's crimes! And no one would dare marry a daughter of the Song family!
"Didn't I tell you to go and invite Madam? Why hasn't she arrived yet?"
A young maidservant said tremblingly, "Reporting to the Old Madam, I went. But at the time, Madam was watching the eldest young lady teach the second young master calligraphy. I dared not speak frankly. Therefore..."
Upon hearing this, the old lady felt a tightness in her chest, a phlegm stuck in her throat, and she fainted!
