Destroy the scumbag husband, beat the bitch, the reborn legitimate daughter overturns the entire cap

Sure enough, just three days after Mu Changchun and his party returned to the Mu residence, the people sent by Liu Haiye arrived.

However, how could the old master and Mu Chang'an, seeing their own precious child suffer such an injustice, allow anyone to return? They immediately ordered the messenger to be thrown out and spread the word that since the Liu family was heartless and ungrateful, the Mu family would not be so easily bullied either. Liu Haiye's favoritism towards his concubine over his wife was plain for all to see, and the Mu family would never let this go!

As soon as these words were spoken, the servants of the Liu family were terrified!

Mu Chang'an's rank is several levels higher than my master's! If he really intends to hinder my master's future, then it's hard to say what will happen!

The servants of the Liu family immediately rushed back to the Liu residence in Yunzhou, fearing that if they returned too late, the Mu family would really take action again.

However, what the servants of the Liu family did not expect was that before they even left the capital, the horse they had ridden was lost, and the silver on their person was also stolen. With no other option, they had to walk to Yunzhou.

Although it was only fifty or sixty li away, and the servants could get there in two days at most, there was still someone causing trouble along the way!

For some reason, the servants were robbed by a group of beggars while spending the night in a dilapidated temple. They were stripped of their cotton-padded clothes and trousers. The group was shivering from the cold, and on a snowy day, they were nowhere to be found.

In short, the fate of these servants was truly extraordinary!

When Mu Xin Nuan received this news, she simply nodded and instructed Mu Qing to give fifty taels of silver as a reward to the guards who had worked for her.

That's right! The misfortunes of the Liu family servants were all orchestrated by Mu Xin Nuan. Her purpose was simply to delay Liu Haiye's arrival of the news, so that his father and grandfather would be even angrier and take real action to stop them!

Sure enough, after waiting for five or six days, it was almost the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the day for worshipping the Kitchen God, but there was still no news from the Liu family. Mu Chang'an really couldn't sit still any longer, so he wrote a letter and sent it to Yunzhou City.

As luck would have it, the next morning at court, the emperor issued an edict promoting Mu Chang'an, the Vice Minister of Works, to the position of Minister of Works, a third-rank official, while the original Minister of Works retired to his hometown!

This is great news!

It was the New Year's holiday, and everyone in the Mu family was filled with joy!

Madam Li beamed with joy as she personally buttoned up Mu Chang'an's fur coat and smoothed it out. "It just so happens that today is the last morning court session of the year, and we have such good news. When you attend court again next year, you will be the Minister of Works. What a joyous occasion!"

Mu Chang'an was also happy. These days, the mansion was filled with harmony and joy. Even though his own sister had returned home in such a disheveled and shameful state, his wife had not neglected her in the slightest. In particular, A'nuan had specially given some of her jewelry and trinkets to her niece, which made him very happy!

Overjoyed, Mu Chang'an exclaimed, "People say that harmony in the family brings prosperity! And it's true! Since Madam Song was placed under house arrest, many of the troublesome matters in this household have decreased. The children are also doing well. Especially Ah Xuan, who got a top grade in the teacher's exam this year! Excellent! He really brings me honor. You didn't see his handwriting, it's truly remarkable. No wonder the teacher praised him; I think it's excellent too."

“Ah Xuan has been by your side since childhood, and naturally he owes a lot to the master’s teachings. Otherwise, how could he be so promising today? But he is still a bit young, and sometimes he is inevitably a bit too playful.”

"Not bad! I'm very satisfied with both Ah Xuan and Ah Nuan! You didn't see it, but Father praised Ah Xuan's handwriting highly! I must thank Madam for giving me such wonderful children!"

Li blushed and glared at him, "What are you saying, sir?"

Seeing that she was shy, Mu Chang'an burst into laughter, clearly in a very good mood!

The Liu family in Yunzhou City naturally received news of the Emperor's appointment, though they learned of it a little later than those in the capital.

Upon hearing that Mu Chang'an was only in his early thirties and had already secured the position of Minister of Works, Liu Haiye was astonished! Where in the Six Ministries could one find such a young Minister? His first thought upon hearing this was, "Oh no!"

Not only him, but also his mother and his concubine knew that they had gotten themselves into big trouble!

With the end of the year fast approaching, Liu Haiye couldn't very well let his wife and children stay at her parents' house all the time. Besides, his brother-in-law had become a high-ranking official of the third rank, which was no joke!

Having served as an official for several years, Liu Haiye was no fool. With a quick glance around, he realized what it meant when he thought about the troubles he had encountered these days, the repeated criticisms from his superiors, and even the withholding of half a year's salary. What did this change in attitude from his superiors, who had previously treated him well, signify?

Liu Haiye wasn't stupid. After treating the people to drinks, he realized that his father-in-law and brother-in-law were both dissatisfied with him.

When Liu Haiye was preparing to go to the capital in person, he saw that the servants he had sent out were looking like beggars at his doorstep!

Now, didn't Liu Haiye understand? He immediately summoned the concubine and they all went to the capital together.

Along the way, he naturally gave the concubine He a lot of instructions. The purpose of going to the Mu residence was to apologize to Mu Changchun. He told He that no matter what, as soon as she entered the Mu residence and saw Mu Changchun, she had to kowtow and admit her mistake!

Although Madam He was unwilling, she understood that her husband was in trouble at the moment, and if she did not follow his wishes, she would be the one to suffer.

It just so happened to be the New Year holiday, and with Mu Chang'an's promotion, there were naturally many congratulatory messages coming and going from his residence.

Madam Li was extremely busy, and the old lady had been hoping that she would ask for her help, but unexpectedly, the old master spoke up first.

“Since you’re too busy, daughter-in-law, why don’t you let Nuan help out? She’ll be around 11 after the New Year, and she can’t always hide behind you. As the eldest daughter of the Mu family, she should learn some etiquette for welcoming and seeing off guests.”

"Yes, Father." Madam Li had been thinking this way all along, but she was worried that the old lady would disagree. Now that the old master had spoken, what could the old lady say? What could she dare to say?

Every day, Mu Xin Nuan followed her mother, learning how to register and record information, and how to speak with those important people. Of course, Mu Xin Nuan had already learned these things in her previous life. However, she certainly wouldn't let go of such an opportunity that would allow her to make more connections!
