Mu En was stunned. He didn't expect that the country girl could be so smart. He couldn't help but admire her.
He laughed heartily, "Sister, it seems that you are not only kind, but also innocent. Girls like you are so rare nowadays! If I take you back, my grandfather will love you very much."
Flowers were blooming all over Zhou Le's heart, but his face had a confused expression.
Mu En patted her shoulder and said with a smile: "This kind of document has no legal effect. Only a silly girl like you would take it seriously. Listen to me, it's okay. Treat our Mu family as relatives. We are legitimate relatives. My brother has been in poor health since he was a child, so his temper is inevitably strange. It sounds like your sister doesn't have a very good relationship with you either. Maybe it's because she didn't live with you since she was a child? Doesn't that mean you should visit each other more often?"
Zhou Le nodded as if relieved, looked at Mu En with innocent eyes, and nodded heavily: "Thank you, Brother Mu En."
Mu En was stunned for a moment. The words "Brother Mu En" made him feel sick to his stomach. However, he immediately responded with a bright smile and told the bartender beside him, "This is Miss Zhou Le. Remember, next time she comes, she'll get a free meal."
Then, he came back and said, "This is my family's property. When you come to play with friends in the future, all expenses will be paid by me."
Zhou Le looked at Mu En with stars in his eyes, and he really wanted to throw himself into his arms.
The God of Destiny finally favored her when she was twenty years old. She understood men!
Mu En looked at her with eyes full of tenderness and affection. It was obvious that he liked pure women. Fortunately, this was also her usual style.
It seems that a wealthy kid like Mu En has seen all kinds of wealth and luxury. Naturally, he is surrounded by gold diggers. As long as she always behaves pure and untainted by worldly things, he will definitely love her to death!
She could already see wealth and glory waving at her from afar. A golden road lay before her. She couldn't help but straighten her back and sit up straighter.
Zhou Cong squeezed until he was sweating profusely before finally getting close. He immediately saw his sister sitting with Mu En. His eyes lit up and he was overjoyed. He shouted, "Zhou Le, Zhou Le, you scared me to death!"
Zhou Le hurriedly introduced: "This is my brother Zhou Cong!"
Now the Zhou family is her springboard, including that slippery Zhou Shuo, she won't let any of them go!
"Brother, where have you been? Leaving me here alone?" Zhou Le complained softly, tears glistening in his eyes, timid and soft.
Zhou Cong and she grew up together and had a tacit understanding. He apologized immediately, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Did I scare you?"
Brothers are friendly and sisters are respectful.
"Brother, this is my brother-in-law's younger brother, Mu En." Zhou Le introduced him to Zhou Cong somewhat embarrassedly.
Mu En looked at Zhou Cong and stretched out his hand. Zhou Le introduced him as her brother-in-law's younger brother, not the second young master of the Mu family. This meant that we are not trying to marry into a wealthy family, we are real relatives. Interesting!
Zhou Cong quickly extended his hand to shake his, "Second Young Master, I've long heard of your name."
Mu En extended his hand warmly and put his arm around his shoulders. "Why are you being so polite? We are legitimate relatives! This is also our family's fault. My brother is ill, and we don't know when we can hold their wedding. As a result, our two families haven't had the chance to meet. Mr. Zhou, please visit more often in the future."
He turned around and glanced at Zhou Le, who was standing timidly beside him, and said with a smile: "You can't hide a lovely girl like Zhou Le at home."
Zhou Cong immediately understood what Mu En meant from his eyes and was filled with joy.
When they sat down again, the Zhou brothers and sisters had become close friends of Mu En.
On the other side, Duan Si paced back and forth in the living room like a trapped beast.
Song Nan brought over a pot of scented tea and placed it on the coffee table. She walked over to Duan Si, helped her sit on the sofa, and said softly, "Auntie, you should take a break. You've been walking for a long time. What are you worried about?"
Duan Si looked at the beautiful face in front of her and couldn't help but feel distressed. She patted Song Nan's hand and said, "Song Nan, I'm lucky I still have you!"
Song Nan smiled, "It seems that you are worried about Uncle Muguo again. Auntie, haven't you let it go? As long as Uncle doesn't bring that woman back, as long as you have the status of the eldest wife of the Mu family, you don't care what he does."
Duan Si sighed, "That's what I said, but it's easier said than done. When I think about how I'm surrounded by enemies and how I've become a laughing stock in this family, I just want to kill that bitch to vent my hatred! Song Nan, you know how hard it has been for me over the years."
Duan Si's eyes turned red.
Song Nan held Duan Si's hand and leaned towards her. She had heard such words for several years, countless times.
However, every time she would pretend to be distressed to express her empathy and shared hatred for Kai.
Duan Si sighed again, "I work so hard for this family, but Mu Guo is all sweet and tender with another woman! He never cares about his son's affairs! Are these all my sons? If he was really capable, he would have withstood the pressure from both families and not married me! Since he married me, he treats me badly and has no sense of contract at all! This kind of person, huh! It's no wonder that the old man was reluctant to give him power! He deserves it!"
Song Nan said softly, "After all, the old man treats you well, and he knows it in his heart. You should relax and stop making things difficult for yourself. Getting angry like this is not good for your health, is it?"
Duan Si sighed, "I miss you too! For all these years, if you hadn't been by my side, constantly reminding me and comforting me, I really wouldn't have been able to get through this for a minute. But, Song Nan, I thought this Mu Kingdom was my destiny, and I accepted it. I didn't expect that my own son wouldn't actually be on the same page with me. Have you seen his attitude towards me? In his eyes, how can I be his biological mother? I'm not even as good as his stepmother!"
Song Nan knew that Duan Si and Mu Ci had never been a loving mother and filial son. If it weren't for this relationship, her situation wouldn't be so embarrassing.
"Auntie, please listen to my advice and have a good talk with Mu Ci. It's just right that while he's sick, you can spend more time with him and ease the relationship. How can there be any overnight hatred between mother and son? Mu Ci has the same temper as you just because he is your biological son. You are both so pure and stubborn in your demands for family affection. You care about Mu Ci in your heart, but you don't show it in your attitude. It's no wonder that Mu Ci misunderstood you, don't you think?"
