Mu Xiaowan still went to the hotel.

As she walked to the door, she heard angry shouts coming from inside.

No need to ask, this wasn't meant for her to hear; Liu Guilan didn't know she was coming. She was just here cursing.

Liu Guilan's insults were incredibly vile, including many offensive curses. Those were not the words a mother should utter!

"Alright, alright, what Xiao Wan said is right. She's our child too, and we have to treat everyone equally. This time, Xiao'e was in the wrong, so it's normal for Xiao Wan to be angry, isn't it?"

"Normal my foot! That brat has found such a good family now. So what if she gets hurt by accident? She can still enjoy wealth and luxury, right? She doesn't have to suffer a little. But Xiao'e is different. She's not married yet."

"Xiao'e said she bought me gold earrings and a silver bracelet, but before she could give them to me, someone snatched them away. If that brat Xiao Wan had protected Xiao'e a little, wouldn't all those things have been ours?"

So it turns out she was biased, and it's true she loves money.

"No, I must borrow Xiao'e and ask that brat where her shop is. Isn't she a boss now? I don't believe she's not afraid of me making a scene."

“This son-in-law is an official, I dare not offend him. This daughter is my own child, no one can control her.”

Mu Xiaowan sneered and pushed open the door that wasn't closed.

"You've really got a good plan. I was thinking that since I've given birth to you, I should buy you a train ticket and send you back. But now it seems like my presence was unnecessary."

When Liu Guilan saw Mu Xiaowan, she raised an eyebrow and was about to start scolding her.

Mu Xiaowan spoke first: "Your youngest daughter was someone's mistress, and when she was caught by the other man's wife, it was already the greatest mercy that she wasn't beaten to death. And you still covet what belongs to her."

“Let me tell you. Even if you take that thing back to your hometown, they still have the right to take it back. The police will come knocking on your door. Your daughter being someone’s mistress, I’ll see your grandson’s whole life be spent with his head down.”

She had met people who were mean and snobbish, but Liu Guilan was the worst.

But if Liu Guilan had listened to her and understood the meaning behind it, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

"Pah, you know nothing. As long as I have money, who cares about me? Wouldn't they try to curry favor with me?"

"If you earned it yourself, it might be like this, but if you obtained it through other means, do you think anyone would even give you a second glance?"

Mu Xiaowan stood at the door without going in. She looked at her father, who was standing helplessly in the shadows, and said, "Dad, I heard from Officer Ye that you want to see me. Just tell me what's on your mind. I have something else to do after that."

“Xiao Wan… Now that I’m here, I want to see your sister. I’ll tell her to listen to discipline and try to get out as soon as possible. It’s not too late to get out then.”

Mu Daniu perfectly portrayed the honesty, simplicity, inferiority complex, and cowardice of a farmer.

Yes, what did he do wrong?

He just married a formidable wife.

"it is good!"

"Come with me now, the car is waiting downstairs."

Chu Junbai was worried after learning that Mu Xiaowan wanted to see them, so he followed along.

There's already a pervert in the family, what if there's another one?

Liu Guilan was still somewhat incredulous when Mu Xiaowan readily agreed.

It seems that the old man is still the most effective.

I'll have him ask that brat for some money later, that should work.

"Xiao Wan, we'll go by ourselves. You go and get busy. Don't delay things. We'll go back after we've seen Xiao'e."

Mu Daniu's mouth moved a few times, and finally he said, "Take care of yourself from now on."

He seemed to want to say something, but ultimately didn't.

"Have you not suffered enough or endured enough hardship? Since you have a car, why don't you walk? If you don't ride, I will. You'll be a beggar for life."

Liu Guilan went out first, and Mu Daniu sighed.

"Don't take your mother's words to heart; she's getting more and more senile as she gets older."

Mu Xiaowan's expression was indifferent.

I was like this when I was a child.

Whenever she felt wronged, her father would say this every time.

Looking at her father's hunched back, Mu Xiaowan felt a pang of sorrow. She knew that her father had always been timid; from childhood to adulthood, he had never truly stood up for her. Whenever Liu Guilan mocked her or treated her unfairly, her father would always stand silently by, only offering her a consolation with, "Don't stoop to your mother's level."

Mu Xiaowan followed Liu Guilan and Mu Daniu downstairs. Chu Junbai's car was already parked by the roadside. Liu Guilan muttered, "That brat is really lucky to have found such a rich man. He always picks her up and drops her off in his car. He's living the good life, but he doesn't even think about his sister in jail."

Mu Xiaowan ignored her and got into the passenger seat. Chu Junbai glanced at her and asked in a low voice, "Are you alright?"

Mu Xiaowan shook her head, forcing a smile: "It's okay, let's go."

The vehicle slowly started moving. Liu Guilan sat in the back seat, touching and looking at everything, muttering to herself, "This vehicle is so comfortable, much better than the tractors in our village."

Mu Xiaowan didn't reply, but just gave her a cold look. Liu Guilan was startled by her gaze and awkwardly shut her mouth.

The car arrived at the detention center quickly. Mu Xiaowan got out of the car and led Liu Guilan and Mu Daniu inside. The formalities were completed quickly, and soon they met Mu Xiao'e in the visiting room.

Mu Xiao'e looked much more haggard, with several bruises on her face, torn clothes, and filthy hair. She had clearly been beaten badly.

As soon as she saw Liu Guilan, tears welled up in her eyes: "Mom, you've finally come! I'm going crazy here. Everyone living here is mentally ill. They beat me and curse me every day. I can't take it anymore!"

This matter was entrusted to Chu Junbai. He told Ye Jincheng that Mu Xiao'e did not need to be locked up alone. Since she did not know how to get along with people, she should be placed in a place with many people to learn more.

Mu Xiaowan, however, thought this was just normal procedure.

Liu Guilan was heartbroken and tears streamed down her face. She quickly stepped forward and took Mu Xiao'e's hand, saying, "Xiao'e, don't be afraid, Mom is here! Don't worry, Mom will definitely find a way to get you out of here!"

Mu Xiao'e cried even harder, constantly complaining, "It's all that bitch Mu Xiaowan's fault! If she hadn't refused to help me, how could I have ended up like this? Mom, you must help me beat that bitch to death!"

Liu Guilan nodded repeatedly, a fierce glint in her eyes: "Don't worry, Mom will definitely get justice for you!"

Mu Xiaowan stood aside, watching the scene coldly, her heart unmoved. She had long been accustomed to Liu Guilan's favoritism and Mu Xiao'e's unreasonable behavior.

She simply said, "Mu Xiao'e, you made a mistake, so don't blame others. If you had listened to advice earlier, you wouldn't have ended up like this."

Mu Xiao'e suddenly raised her head and glared fiercely at Mu Xiaowan: "Stop pretending! You think you're so great just because you found a rich man? Let me tell you, you're nothing but a worthless slut that nobody wants!"

Mu Xiaowan sneered, too lazy to argue with her anymore. She turned to Mu Daniu and said, "Dad, you've seen the person and said what you needed to say. Let's go."

Mu Daniu nodded, his face full of helplessness and exhaustion. He looked at Mu Xiao'e, then at Liu Guilan, and finally sighed: "Xiao'e, listen to the discipline and try to get out as soon as possible. Dad... Dad can't help you much, take care of yourself."

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiao'e immediately became anxious: "Dad! How could you do this? I'm your own daughter! How can you abandon me?"

Mu Daniu lowered his head, not daring to look into her eyes again, and silently followed Mu Xiaowan out of the meeting room.

Seeing this, Liu Guilan quickly chased after her and grabbed Mu Xiaowan's arm: "Xiaowan, you can't just leave like this! Your sister is still suffering inside, you have to find a way to get her out!"

Mu Xiaowan shook off her hand and said coldly, "She should bear the consequences of her own actions. I can't help her, and I don't want to."

Liu Guilan was furious, her face turning ashen. She pointed at Mu Xiaowan's nose and yelled, "You heartless bastard! Your sister is in this state, and you just stand by and watch her die? Are you even human?"

Mu Xiaowan sneered, her eyes icy: "I have no conscience? What about you? From childhood to adulthood, have you ever treated me like a daughter? When Mu Xiao'e did something wrong, you all wanted me to clean up her mess. But have you ever thought that I am also your daughter?"

Liu Guilan was speechless and stood there stunned.

Mu Daniu lowered his head, his face full of guilt.
