Chapter 131 Ancestor Worship!
Chapter 131 Ancestor Worship!
Mu Nanyan wiped her hands and came down from the second floor, "Jun Zhuoyuan, do you think he can change?"
Jun Zhuoyuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Impossible."
Mu Nanyan asked: "Even if the disease is cured, you won't change?"
"Yanyan, do you know what it means to refuse to change your bad habits?" Jun Zhuoyuan fiddled with her hands from below.
Mu Nanyan shrugged, "I wish he could grow some brains! He didn't even know he was bought by someone."
Wushuang followed her up to the second floor, "Miss, Wushuang has something unclear."
"Speak." Mu Nanyan lowered her head and fiddled with the medicinal herbs in her hand, occasionally putting them under her nose and sniffing them.
Wushuang asked with resentment: "Miss, since you knew that the Sixth Prince would go along with them after he recovered, why did you still treat him?"
Mu Nanyan stood up and said casually: "He is not on the same level as us now. Even if he makes a big mistake, the emperor will punish him lightly because of his physical condition, and the queen mother has taken a fancy to his weak and sickly body. Do you think these advantages will still be there if he recovers from his illness?"
Wushuang looked at her in admiration, "Wow! Miss, what is your brain made of? How come it's so smart!"
Mu Nanyan always felt that her words were not good words, and there was an indescribable weirdness. "Stop and take back your gaze. Go and help quickly. Wanxi is very busy."
Wushuang curled her lips, "Miss Wushuang really doesn't understand, other people open a shop to make money, you open a shop to spend money."
Mu Nanyan rubbed her head and said, "No, I opened the shop to help the world! Okay, get busy."
Wushuang nodded. On the other side, at the Sixth Prince's Mansion, Jun Chengfeng once thought that he had been deceived. Why was the pain in his body getting more and more? It was not at all like what Mu Nanyan said that it would be relieved after a while. He had waited for half an hour. If the pain continued, it would be fatal.
Jun Chengfeng really couldn't stand it anymore, so he privately found several doctors to come to his house for treatment. These people said that it was not serious. He wanted to take medicine to relieve the pain, but they all said not to. Jun Chengfeng had no choice but to send someone to ask Mu Nanyan for help. Before the person he sent came back, the pain in his body began to slowly subside, and the pain disappeared only when the person he sent came back. He felt a wave of comfort in his soul.
It seemed that Mu Nanyan did not lie to him, "Where is Mu Nanyan?"
The servant shivered and said, "The master, Miss Mu, said that we don't need to look at it and just have to endure it, so she won't make another trip to waste time."
Jun Chengfeng was a little angry and smashed the teacup directly, "How dare she!" But then he changed his mind and thought, Mu Nanyan cured his illness and he didn't know whether it was cured or not. Now was not the time to break up with her. Besides, she was a little beauty. It would be great if he could welcome her and her sister into the house together.
Mu Nanyan didn't know that she had been plotted against, and was rushing to the Mu Mansion. She heard that there was a play to watch today, and she was the heroine. If she didn't go back, the play would not be performed.
Jun Qi was a man they met halfway and insisted on going with them. Mu Nanyan couldn't get rid of him so she had to let him go out with Jun Zhuoyuan, and she had even thought of the way they would go out.
As expected, as soon as he entered the house, he saw Mu Xiwen's big face, "What is father doing here?"
Mu Xiwen stroked his beard and said, "I'll wait for you. Come with me to the front hall to worship our ancestors."
Mu Nanyan rolled her eyes at him in her heart. How shameless! They knew that she was not of the Mu family's bloodline, but he went through so much trouble for the things in her hand. Wouldn't the ancestors of the Mu family jump out of their coffins? It was not enough to slap them in the face.
The old lady sat in the main seat with a kind face, and Shen stood respectfully below her, "Oh! Yan'er is back, come and meet your eldest sister, Yue'er and Wan'er."
Although Murong Yue was reluctant, she still bowed after thinking about the purpose of today, "Little sister greets big sister."
Mu Wanwan didn't think about that. She smiled and took Mu Nanyan's hand. "Big sister, have you missed me after not seeing me for half a month?"
Mu Wanwan has been studying outside, which is also something that makes Shen proud. Few people can be admitted to Bailu Academy, but her Wanwan was admitted, which really makes her proud. Mu Xiwen also praised it highly. In such a closed era, it is a miracle that only this academy recruits female disciples.
Mu Nanyan was still a little unfamiliar with her. After all, she was the daughter of the Shen family. As the saying goes, one should not have the intention to harm others, but one must be on guard against others.
Mu Nanyan nodded perfunctorily. Mu Yuhuai seemed to see her embarrassment and immediately rushed forward, "Big sister, you have been going out early and coming back late these days. You never come to play with Yuhuai. You take Fifth Sister with you every day. I am jealous." After saying that, he nudged her into his arms again.
Mu Xiyao hasn't come back today. She also heard about what happened today. Unfortunately, there were too many bills in the hospital and she couldn't come back because she couldn't finish them in a short time. She could only wait until evening to hear second-hand news.
Mu Xiwen also got angry when he heard this. What good would come from Mu Xiyao hanging out with Mu Nanyan every day? She was becoming more and more unruly. She didn't come back when he asked her to on such an important day. She was really running away.
I'll have to give her a good education when she comes back.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Mu Xiwen straightened his voice and said, "Okay, everyone go back to your seats. Yan'er, you come."
Mu Nanyan got goosebumps all over her body. Why was Mu Xiwen yelling so disgustingly? Was he crazy?
Seeing that she didn't understand, Mu Xiwen winked at Shen. Shen got the signal and stood up. "Yan'er, come here, mother will accompany you. Today is your ancestral recognition day. Your father has been preparing for it for a long time."
Really? I prepared it last night and started this afternoon. The whole morning was enough for her. Mu Nanyan pushed her hand away, "Auntie, you really don't learn from your mistakes. Why can't you just come to the point of saying this? Besides, are the ancestors you recognize really my ancestors?"
Mu Xiwen's expression froze. Did this damn girl know something? What should I do? It doesn't matter. The Su family has been exiled. Even if she knew, what can she do? She still has to rely on the Mu family to survive. If her identity is clear, Yue'er can also sit on the position of the legitimate daughter, which is not without reason. It is a good thing.
Back then, that bitch Su Jinrou lost her virginity before she even entered the house, and she dared to act so arrogantly in his house while pregnant with someone else's child. After so many years, she finally dumped the Su family. Now only Mu Nanyan is left. After squeezing her dry, all contact with the Su family will be completely cut off.
The more Mu Xiwen thought about it, the more excited he became. He held Mu Nanyan's hand and said, "Come on, Yan'er, come and pay respect to your ancestors."
Mu Nanyan even suspected that these people were selectively deaf. No wonder they lived so happily while pretending to be deaf and dumb all day long.
Jun Zhuoyuan had been standing outside the door and knew it was time to come out. He sorted out his clothes and rushed into the Mu Mansion with Jun Qi, "What ancestors are you worshipping, Prime Minister Mu?"
"People from my Jun family don't worship Jun's ancestors, but are here to worship your ancestors?"
Mu Xiwen was startled by the sudden change. The old lady was so scared that she dropped her chair. "Li, Li Wang Wang His Royal Highness!"
Jun Zhuoyuan nodded and squinted his eyes. "Why is Prime Minister Mu stuttering? He can't continue to be the Prime Minister like this. What will it affect..."
Mu Nanyan continued his words, "It affects the image of the country!"
"Yes! Yes! Yes! The image of the country is still Yanyan who is smart!" Jun Zhuoyuan clung to her like a scoundrel.
Mu Nanyan pulled away uncomfortably. She was not used to showing affection in front of outsiders. Jun Zhuoyuan also noticed it, but he didn't care. Anyway, Yanyan had never refused harshly, and habits had to be corrected slowly.
Mu Xiwen said, "Your Highness Prince Li, Yan'er hasn't married yet. This ancestor is still the ancestor of the Mu family. You don't want her to be talked about by outsiders, right?"
Jun Zhuoyuan squinted at him and said, "Really? I'll ask someone to go back to the palace and ask my father if this is the current rule. You know I never follow the rules."
Mu Xiwen shook his head. "No, no, I won't bother His Royal Highness Prince Li anymore. Let's all go home today."
Mu Nanyan hugged her chest and leaned against Jun Zhuoyuan, "It's a good opportunity for us to discuss our mother's birthday today."
Shen's eyes lit up. This birthday... That's not right. She had already celebrated her birthday. Who was this birthday for?
Mu Nanyan continued, "My mother has been gone for so long, and as her daughter, I have never been filial to her. I would like to discuss my mother Su Jinrou's birthday with you today."
Mu Xiwen's expression became more and more ugly. Jun Qi really admired her. This sister-in-law was not a good person. The Mu family was not enough for her to play with.
"I think my sister-in-law's suggestion is very good." Jun Qi finally interrupted!
Jun Zhuoyuan raised his eyebrows in satisfaction, thinking that he was tactful and it was not in vain for him to come here.
Mu Xiwen was completely embarrassed. The Fourth Prince and the Ninth Prince were both here, and he couldn't break up with Mu Nanyan. Why did this damn girl hold a birthday party for her? Wasn't this a clear display of his cuckoldry?
Mu Nanyan secretly pinched Jun Zhuoyuan and said, "Hurry up and finish it. I want to sleep."
Jun Zhuoyuan nodded and took her hand. "Since Prime Minister Mu has agreed, I will send people to prepare. You, the Mu family, just need to provide the venue. The rest will be handled by our Prince Li's Mansion."
The old lady couldn't stand it. How could this be allowed? It was a slap in the face of their Mu family. How could the Mu family's daughter let her fiancé pay for the service?
"Your Highness Prince Li, you are joking. The birthday of the Mu family mistress must be under the full control of the Mu family. How can we trouble Prince Li's mansion? What do you think?"
Mu Xiwen also reacted after her reminder. His mother was right. He almost lost face. "Mother is right. I must host Rou'er's birthday. I have never missed a birthday for her in all these years. I just held it privately. Since Yan'er said so this time, I will hold a big one."
Mu Nanyan raised her lips, "Okay, Father, what you said makes Yan'er feel better. Since we are going to hold it at home, let Aunt Jiang take care of it. I believe in Aunt Jiang's ability. What do you think, Father?"
Shen clasped her hands aside. This damn girl didn't care about Su Jinrou's birthday at all, but she even let Jiang Bitch take care of it. How could she, as the mistress, do anything in the future? I'm afraid she will become a laughing stock in this capital!
