A deadly virus erupts. The apocalypse descends. Zombies, various mutated beasts, and mutated plants attack wildly.
Mu Cheng is reborn from the apocalypse. Seizing the initiative, she begins c...
Is this woman here to make people laugh?
A thousand horses galloped past Mu Cheng's head. She knew very well that this woman was sitting here telling her so many so-called truths, just to make her agree to share Tang Nuo with the woman from the Rui family.
She knew the other party's intention in her heart, but she still put on a polite smile on her face, "It means that Dr. Rui doesn't mind her husband having three wives and four concubines anymore."
Rui Linlin's expression changed, and after a while she said, "Miss Mu, women from my Rui family will not marry outside the family unless there are special circumstances."
Mu Cheng pursed her lips and smiled. "So the son-in-law we recruit back home is not eligible to have three wives and four concubines. And to put it bluntly, if the women of the Rui family like, they can have as many husbands as they want, right?"
Mu Cheng's words clearly angered Rui Linlin. Although she still had a smile on her face, her tone had turned a bit colder. "Ms. Mu, as a well-educated and well-mannered woman, it seems inappropriate for you to say such harsh words."
"That's unpleasant?" Mu Cheng shrugged innocently. "Doctor Rui, isn't that what you mean? The men of the Rui family can have three wives and four concubines because it helps to improve the relationship between husband and wife. But what about the women of the Rui family? If a son-in-law doesn't have the right to have three wives and four concubines, and he still wants to improve the relationship between husband and wife, then the women of the Rui family will have to find more men themselves!"
Rui Linlin's smile gradually faltered. She spoke sternly, "Miss Mu, please apologize to me. The women of our Rui family learn the Three Obediences and Four Virtues from the time we are old enough to understand. We would never do anything to let our husbands down."
Rui Linlin's words were very harsh, but Mu Cheng still had a smile on her face and didn't seem to want to apologize. She just smiled and asked, "So what Dr. Rui means is that men can have three wives and four concubines, but women can't?"
Rui Linlin nodded and replied, "Yes."
"Okay!" Mu Cheng took a sip of the tea and said calmly, "I'm sorry, Doctor Rui. I didn't mean to say anything bad about the women in your Rui family. I just interpreted what Doctor Rui said, but it's obvious that I misunderstood."
"Ms. Mu, I came here today not only to see President Su, but also to talk to Miss Mu." The other party has already apologized, and Rui Linlin did not dwell on the matter, but she did not intend to continue persuading her. Mu Cheng has a sharp tongue and always manages to turn things around. Talking to her about big principles is like playing the lute to a cow.
"I don't know Dr. Rui, so I don't know what he wants to talk to me about." Mu Cheng's tone was still polite. Of course, that was because she didn't know what Rui Linlin was thinking. If she knew what Rui Linlin was thinking, she would definitely sneer and then point at Rui Linlin's nose and curse her.
Rui Linlin said aloud, "My niece is Jiang Xintong. I believe Miss Mu still remembers her."
Mu Cheng looked at Dr. Rui without saying anything, waiting for her to continue.
"Xiaotong is accompanying you to the ancient town this time. Something happened in the ancient town, and several people from my Rui family died..."
Before Rui Linlin could continue, Mu Cheng interrupted her, "Doctor Rui, the deaths of Miss Jiang and those people in the Rui family have nothing to do with us."
Rui Linlin continued, "But they did follow you on a mission, and that's when this happened. Someone from my Rui family died. Shouldn't you give an explanation and take responsibility for this?"
"Doctor Rui, if you want to find someone to be held responsible, you should go to Director Tang Ying, because he was the person in charge of that mission. There is no point in you looking for me here." Mu Cheng still had a smile on her face. Of course, she did this not to shirk responsibility.
It has been such a long time since Jiang Xintong came back, but neither the Rui family nor Jiang Xintong's parents have ever caused trouble for Tang Nuo. Knowing that Tang Nuo is the person in charge this time, Rui Linlin did not go to find Tang Nuo, but instead went to find herself. Why?
