There are some things they both know well and there is no need to point them out.

Mu Chenze nodded to show that he understood.

They both had memories of their previous lives and knew that their eldest brother and sister-in-law gave birth to a son instead of a daughter, and that the child was not born this year.

Mu Chenze was about to leave when Chu Xuan grabbed his arm and said, "Something's wrong."

Mu Chenze was surprised, "What's wrong?"

"Our mother only told you about Li Qiang and nothing else?"

"No, what's wrong?"

"The Li Qiang incident happened last year. Why did my brother and the others wait until now to tell us? Something must have happened that we don't know about. You can call our mother or my brother and ask."

"Okay. I'll make the call."

Soon, Mu Chenze walked into the main room and dialed the phone.

"Hello……"

It was Qin Mahua who answered the call.

Mu Chenze asked quickly, "Mom, are you hiding something?"

Qin Mahua couldn't hold back her tears and choked up as she said, "I can tell you the truth, but you must not tell Xiaoxuan about this. She's still in confinement after giving birth."

"Okay, I won't tell you."

"Your little niece is gone. She died yesterday. Your sister-in-law said it was your eldest brother's fault and the consequences are on the child. That's how Li Qiang's case came to be."

Hearing this, Mu Chenze's heart ached.

I have been busy at home and at work recently, and I passed away before I had the chance to see my little niece.

In my previous life, I didn’t have a niece or a son.

My niece is gone in this life, will my son also...

Thinking of this, Mu Chenze couldn't help but shudder.

This must never be told to Xiaoxuan.

Xiaoxuan is still in confinement after giving birth.

"Mom, you should stay at my sister-in-law's house for a while. Don't rush back. Don't call me recently." Having said this, Mu Chenze glanced at the door to confirm that no one was there before continuing, "Xiao Xuan must not know about this. We must keep it a secret until Xiao Xuan is out of confinement."

Otherwise, Xiao Xuan would not only be sad about the death of her niece, but also worry about her son.

"Okay. Then investigate Li Qiang's case as soon as possible."

"I will."

After Mu Chenze hung up the phone, he was thinking about how to reply to his wife.

Soon, I thought of a reason.

Walk into the bedroom.

Xiaoxuan is feeding the baby.

Mu Chenze deliberately lowered his voice, "The child is not asleep, right?"

Chu Xuan smiled and said, "He's still breastfeeding. He'll probably fall asleep soon. Did you contact our mother just now? Is there something you're hiding from us?"

"Indeed. But it wasn't a good thing. My sister-in-law was upset because my brother didn't pay enough money home this month, so she said something unpleasant. The two of them ended up arguing, and my sister-in-law brought up the fact that my brother didn't save Li Qiang, and our mother heard it."

"What's there to hide about paying less?"

"Because big brother lost the bet. Mom didn't tell me at first because she wanted to save face for him."

"Gambling is not allowed. Let our mother teach Big Brother a lesson."

"Of course not. Mother will definitely teach him a lesson. By the way, wife, I'm going to Lin City to find Liu Dapeng right now."

Some things cannot be discussed over the phone and must be discussed face to face.

"Chen Ze, eat first before you leave."

"No need to eat. I'm not hungry. I'm going to miss my flight soon!"

Mu Chenze gently held his son's hand, kissed it, kissed his wife's forehead, went to the kitchen to say hello to his mother-in-law, and then went out.

When they arrived in Lin City, it was already early morning, and Mu Chenze found a guesthouse to stay in.

At around six in the morning, I went out to have breakfast, bought some gifts, and walked towards Liu Dapeng's house.

Just then, Liu Dapeng went out to buy breakfast.

"Liu Dapeng."

"Mu Chenze, why are you here?"
