Mu's mother hadn't dared to bring up the car issue yet.

That day was just a preliminary test.

But it has already been rejected.

If I actually speak up, I'm afraid I'll just be kicked out.

These past few days, Mu's mother has been working very hard, her back aching from exhaustion every day, yet she still has to put on a smiling face in front of Mu Mian and Gu Xiangque. She has never felt so stifled in her life.

Mu's mother is not planning to borrow the car from Gu Xiangque now.

I figured driving for Didi around wasn't exactly a respectable job.

She then told Mu Gang, "I heard your brother-in-law has a lot of friends, and he can even buy those hard-to-find clothes. I'm thinking of having him help you find a proper job at the company."

Ideally, it should include the five social insurances and one housing fund.

This way you'll have some security in the future.

Upon hearing this, Mu Gang...

That seems reliable.

He originally didn't want to drive for Didi.

I heard it earns about the same as delivering food. You're always on the go, and with so many cars on the road these days, it's not safe if something happens.

A proper job is good.

Sitting in an air-conditioned office every day, still getting a salary, and having money even after retirement—isn't that better than delivering food or driving for Didi?

It's 6 PM now.

Mu's mother glanced at the time. "Oh dear, your sister and the others are coming back soon. You two hurry back before they find out."

Mu's mother quickly pushed her son outside.

"Mom, Weiwei and I will come over again tomorrow at noon. I just saw some hairy crabs in the refrigerator. Could you cook them for us tomorrow at noon?" Mu Gang said.

"Okay, I'll get it for you tomorrow."

What about Weiwei?

Where have the people gone?

"slight?"

Mu's mother called out.

Lin Wei responded from the master bedroom, "Mom, I'm here."

Lin Wei rummaged through Mu Mian's master bedroom, taking a face mask from a drawer. Each mask cost several hundred yuan; she had never used anything so expensive in her life.

These face masks were brought home by Gu Xiangque.

He thought that Mu Mian was a girl and would need it since she takes care of her skin, so he took it back. Mu Mian hasn't used it much yet.

The couple left home.

In a taxi.

"Wife, what are all these things you've got?" Mu Gang asked.

Lin Wei opened the bag. "I got this from your sister. Guess how much each face mask costs?"

"How many?"

Mu Gang didn't understand these things.

Lin Wei gestured with her hand, and Mu Gang thought it was a few yuan per sheet. "That's quite expensive, several yuan per sheet. You throw it away after using it for a while."

"You are stupid."

Lin Wei nudged Mu Gang, "It's not a few yuan, it's several hundred."

what?

Mu Gang was almost dumbfounded.

A face mask costs several hundred?

"My sister is willing to buy face masks that cost hundreds of dollars each?"

It overturned Mu Gang's worldview.

He had no idea that his sister's face mask cost several hundred yuan, while he, her own brother, was living a life of misery.

"Are you stupid? Do you think your sister needs to call you before she spends money?"

Now you know how disgusting your sister is.

She's actually richer than anyone else, she just doesn't want to spend it. Do you really think she's some kind person, that she treats you like her own brother?

Be more careful.

school.

It was time to get out of school.

Mo Yu and Mu Mian walked out of the school together.

Mo Yu answered the phone. "What? Okay, I understand."

"What happened?" Mu Mian asked.

She noticed that Mo Yu looked unwell after finishing the phone call.

"It's Uncle Xu. He was so angry that he took Xu Shan's ashes and went to the Zhang family to cause trouble. I have to go and check on him, lest something else happens," Mo Yu said.

"I'll go as well."

Mu Mian also went.

**

At Zhang Jiayin's doorstep.

The maid didn't let Uncle Xu in, stopping him at the door. But it wasn't that the maid wouldn't let him in; all the maids here knew that Xu Shan was the former mistress of this house.

Xu Shan is a very nice person, and she's kind to everyone.

The servants in the house liked her.

Knowing that Xu Shan had jumped off the building, everyone felt uneasy, but one thing at a time, since Zhang Jiayin wouldn't let them in, there was no way to let them in.

"Mr. Xu, there's really no way. Mr. Zhang is very busy right now and has no time to see you. Besides, his ex-wife is already in this state, so why bother?"

Why don't you go back first?

"If this continues, it won't look good for anyone."

The maid tried to persuade her.

Uncle Xu was holding his breath.

He just couldn't understand it.

How could a daughter I raised for so long just suddenly die like that?

At this time.

Mu Mian and Mo Yu rushed over.

"Uncle Xu."

"Mu Mian, Mo Yu, you've come at the right time. I just want to go in and see Zhang Jiayin to ask him why he divorced my daughter."

I just want to know why he's avoiding me.

Mu Mian understood Uncle Xu's request.

He just wants justice.

"Uncle Xu, please wait a moment, I'll find a way to let you in."

Mu Mian called Mu Nianhua, "I know you and Zhang Jiayin are both at home. Let us in, otherwise no one will be able to handle the situation."

But I'm not afraid of losing face, after all, I have nothing.

But you and Zhang Jiayin are different.

The Zhang family is currently under investigation, and if this matter is exposed again, it could...

You know better than I can weigh the pros and cons.

Mu Mian hung up the phone.

She had said everything she could, but whether Mu Nianhua would let them in was uncertain.

at this time.

Mu Nianhua stood on the balcony on the third floor of the villa. From her perspective, she could see everything outside the door, including Mu Mian's annoying face.

He really loves to meddle in other people's business.

Do you really think she's a peacemaker who meddles in everyone's business?

Mu Nianhua knew that Zhang was under investigation.

This is very strange.

Everything was fine yesterday, without a single whisper, but today there's been a sudden bombshell. It's obvious someone is targeting the Zhang family.

Mu Nianhua asked Zhang Jiayin.

He is usually very careful in his business dealings and rarely offends anyone. The fact that the Zhang family has been able to develop to its current scale in Chengdu is naturally due to the fact that they have made some friends.

Zhang Jiayin had no idea who was behind it.

Mu Nianhua wondered if it was related to Mu Mian. After the wedding riots yesterday, Zhang Shi made a huge fuss, which was obviously related to yesterday's events.

But where did Mu Mian get this ability?

"Let them in."

Mu Nianhua spoke.

Then she would ask Mu Mian directly to see if it was Mu Mian who had done it.
