The Old Mu family, who were so poor they jingled, went crazy. It was a time of famine, and everyone was rushing to flee, yet they went out of their way to pick up a little girl.

Chapter 477 Bandits Run Rampant
Both were matriarchs and intelligent women; Madam Wen knew that Meng Xuanyi had left under a pretext.
She quickly said to Meng Xuanyi,
"Xuanyi, if you're not busy, please listen to their opinions and offer some suggestions."
To be honest, I'm a little undecided about this myself.
Hearing Madam Wen's words, Meng Xuanyi, who had stood up, sat back down.
"Alright, I'll have a servant go and take a look. Sister-in-law, come and sit down."
Madam Wen sat down opposite Meng Xuanyi.
"Fei'er, I want to ask you something."
Yunfei nodded.
"Is your aunt asking about my gentle cousin?"
Mrs. Wen nodded.
"Yunfei, you know that Wenrou is usually a very carefree girl, but she seemed to have something on her mind when she came back today."
I could tell at a glance that this girl had something on her mind.
I just asked around and someone said it's related to a young man. I'd like to ask you about his character.
I don't want her to be deceived or hurt.
Yunfei thought for a moment,
Aunt, I know you're worried about my cousin.
My gentle cousin recently met a man who impressed her. This man is sixteen years old and just passed the imperial examination at the county level.
He is the eldest son of my husband's cousin's adoptive parents. My husband said that he is a good person and comes from a good family.
Their family is an ordinary family of farmers and scholars. In recent years, they have opened a winery in Yunlu City and are doing quite well. There are four brothers in their family, and Wenrou has taken a liking to the eldest.
It is said that all four brothers are good and have potential, and they should do well no matter which industry they go into in the future.
Oh, right, he also came to the wedding procession that day.....................
Yunfei didn't hide anything and told her everything she knew about Mu Cheng'an's family situation and how Wenrou and Mu Cheng'an met.
After listening, Madam Wen remained silent for a while, then sighed softly.
"Now that you mention it, I do remember that child. He was quite good-looking and didn't look like a farmer's child at all."
Moreover, the Mu family does sound quite good. Although their family background is a bit weak, the Wen family doesn't care about such things.
Our family has no shortage of money. Rou'er's dowry will be enough for her to live on for several lifetimes. I'm not worried about her working hard to make a living.
I just want to help her find a family-oriented man who treats her well and is ambitious. If he could also have kind-hearted parents-in-law and a gentle sister-in-law, that would be perfect.
However, the Mu family is quite far from us in Yunlu City. I'm too old to visit my daughter's home now.
"I only have one daughter. Look at Yunfei, she married into Yuncheng, which is far enough away for me. If Rou'er marries someone even further away than Fei'er, or even several times farther away, I really can't accept it."
Meng Xuanyi smiled and comforted Madam Wen.
"Sister-in-law, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. As long as the children are happy, that's all that matters."
We can overcome the rest later. Actually, it doesn't matter if it's far; we can just treat it as a trip.
Mrs. Wen smiled and nodded.
"Yes, Xuanyi is right. As long as someone has good character and treats Rou'er well, everything else is negotiable."
Moreover, it's too early to talk about these things now; nothing is certain yet, and the two families are so far apart that it's uncertain whether they'll ever have a chance to meet again.
There's no point in worrying about these things now. Let's talk about Fei'er instead. How's she doing with her in-laws?
