Li Xiulan immediately felt herself stand up straight. With her son backing her up, she was no longer afraid!

She nodded and said, "I really should go back, otherwise I'll just keep staying with Yue'er and cause her trouble."

Li Xiyue said, "I'll go back with you."

Li Xiulan looked at Li Xiyue gratefully, then turned to her son and said, "But aren't you too tired? I'm worried about your health, you've only just gotten back!"

Mu Cangnan said, "Mom, I'm fine. The surgical incision inside my heart should have healed by now. It's just a superficial wound."

The doctor won't let me leave the hospital, just because they're worried my sutures might come undone. They said I'll be fine if I'm careful.

Li Xiulan hesitated before asking, "Will this work?"

Mu Cangnan said, "Okay! Mom, I'm fine, I'll definitely be okay!"

He got up and got out of bed.

Li Xiulan wouldn't let Mu Cangnan put on his shoes himself; she put them on for her son.

The mother and son helped each other out of the room.

Mi Bao said in the space, "Looking at the mother and son, who would guess they are adopted? Li Xiulan is really good to Mu Cangnan!"

Li Xiyue said, "Li Xiulan is very kind. I really don't know how she gave birth to those two daughters. They are both more cunning and wicked than the other!"

Honey said, "Is it possible that their father is bad? Who is their father?"

Li Xiyue was taken aback. Only after being reminded by Mi Bao did she realize the problem she had been unaware of.

Who is Mu Cangnan's adoptive father?

Li Xiulan never mentioned it!

Even though she officially married Mu Cangnan in her previous life, Li Xiulan never mentioned her man.

She said quietly, "Yes, who is Li Xiulan's man? I've never heard her mention him. I'll ask her later!"

She followed Li Xiulan and Mu Cangnan out the door, then drove the jeep to take them back to the Mu family home.

When they returned to the Mu family home, the gate was tightly shut, and several people were banging on it.

Li Xiyue stopped the car, opened the door and got out, asking the people gathered at the entrance.

What are you doing here? Who are you looking for?

The men blocking the doorway turned around and looked back at Li Xiyue.

They asked each of them one by one, "Are you from this family?"

What is your relationship with the people inside?

"She owes us money, you should pay it off for her!"

"Don't let her go, make her pay back the money!"

Li Xiyue asked, "What money? Who owes you money?"

The man in the lead said, "The woman inside owes us money. She ate at our restaurant and didn't pay!"

"She took our cooperative's eggs without paying, and she even stole a piece of meat from us!"

"She stole a steamer basket of steamed buns from our shop! Holy crap, I really don't know how she managed to take the whole basket!"

Speaking of this, the waiter at the steamed bun shop was furious. He hadn't even noticed it for a second, and the steamer basket had been lost!

Fortunately, the people at the door saw someone carrying away the steamer basket, and she chased after them all the way here.

Mu Cangnan said, "Tell me how much money I owe you, and I'll pay you!"

Mi Bao said in the space, "Why is Mu Cangnan giving money? It's clearly money that Mu Jiuchun owes!"

Li Xiyue and Mi Bao said, "Mu Cangnan just doesn't want others to suffer losses. These people are all innocent."

The debt collectors outside had all left, so Li Xiyue instructed Mi Bao, "Go and open the courtyard gate!"

Mi Bao laughed and said, "Hehe, you've come to the right person! This is my forte!"

It immediately ran out of the spatial passage and went straight to the roof of the Mu family's house.

Then he jumped from the roof of the Mu family's house into the yard, climbed onto the door, and unscrewed the door bolt.

Mu Jiuchun, who was hiding in her room, almost thought she was hallucinating. She actually saw a cat clinging to the door latch and trying to pry it open.

But the next moment, she realized it wasn't a fantasy; the cat had actually pried open the door latch.

As the cat unlatched the door, both doors were pushed open from the outside.

She rushed out and saw Li Xiyue, Mu Cangnan, and Li Xiulan walking in.

Li Xiulan didn't expect that the courtyard gate would open so easily with just a casual push.

But just now those people were banging on the door desperately, and they couldn't get it open!

What exactly happened?

However, she didn't have time to think about these things. As soon as she walked in the door, she saw her unfilial daughter, Mu Jiuchun!

She angrily slapped her daughter across the face, "What sins have I committed to give birth to you two sisters!"

"Do you two have any conscience? You kicked your own mother out of the house!"

Mu Jiuchun's face stung from the blow, and she retorted, "Why did you hit me? It was my older sister's idea, go find her!"

Besides, your second and third brothers aren't your husband's, so why should the house go to them? I won't give it to them, I don't agree!

Li Xiulan said, “Whether you agree or not is none of my business. From today onwards, we will sever our mother-daughter relationship!”

You are no longer my daughter. I don't need you to take care of me in my old age or see me off in my death. We're severing all ties!

Mu Jiuchun was shocked that Li Xiulan would say such a resolute thing. She pointed at Li Xiulan and said, "You...you want to sever ties with me? Am I not your biological daughter?"

Li Xiulan cried and said, "I wish you weren't my biological child, how could I have given birth to such a beast!"

She punched herself in the heart. It was all her fault. How could she have ended up with that beastly father of theirs?

With his hands on his hips, Mu Jiuchun said, "You think you can just cut ties like that? No way!"

However, before she could finish speaking, Mu Cangnan grabbed Mu Jiuchun by the collar and dragged her towards the courtyard gate!
