Song Nan's words touched Duan Si's heart and calmed his restlessness.
But she also felt guilty. "Auntie, the person I feel most sorry for is you. Mu Ci's health is so poor, I can't bear to see you suffer with him, and I can't bear to see you become a widow in the foreseeable future. That's why I have been hesitant to make up my mind to marry you to Mu Ci. But I didn't expect that a wild girl would suddenly appear now!"
"Just thinking about it makes me furious. If I had known this would happen, I should have helped you and Mu Ci. After all, even if Mu Ci is gone, you are still the eldest lady of the Mu family! No matter what, we both have a place in the Mu family! Even if we can't get the hearts of men in this life, we can still get their property!"
Song Nan lowered his eyes and thought to himself: Why was he not doing this before? Why is he only figuring it out now?
However, it was also because of his own hesitation that he had reached this point today. Who would have thought that Mr. Mu would actually do such a ridiculous thing as a wedding? And he actually managed to pick someone who was willing to come to the wedding, and this person just happened to catch Mu Ci's eye.
Thinking of this, her heart couldn't help but move.
"Auntie, I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter." Song Nan straightened his face and said seriously.
"What's the matter? Do you also think that little vixen has problems?" Duan Si immediately became alert.
The "little vixen" that Duan Si mentioned was the woman that Mu Guo had outside.
Song Nan ignored Duan Si's silliness and continued, "Auntie, I'm talking about Mu Ci's wife, Zhou Shuo. Don't you think her appearance is too coincidental? The old man has been looking for someone suitable for the wedding, but there has been no suitable one for such a long time. How come Zhou Shuo suddenly appeared? And she also happened to meet the old man's requirements?"
"I'm worried that Zhou Shuo might be approaching Mu Ci on purpose, just to seize Mu Ci's property and the position of the eldest young lady of the Mu family. You know, the eldest young lady of the Mu family, even if she is a widow, cannot remarry. If it weren't for this, why would even those small families be unwilling to marry their daughters into the family? Take you for example, if it weren't for this -"
Duan Si nodded fiercely, "Yes, yes, if it weren't for this, I wouldn't hesitate to let you marry Mu Ci. Even if you have feelings for him, I can't ruin the rest of your life!"
Song Nan remained calm, showing a hint of shyness along with Duan Si's emotions.
Duan Si finally understood what was going on. "You're right. This girl must have some ulterior motive!"
Is this also called a secret? Who can't see this purpose? Song Nan couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Duan Si must have saved the earth in her previous life. Only in this life could she become such a noble woman with such a flawed IQ.
She nodded slightly, "And Xuejinmaru."
Duan Si nodded fiercely, "Yes, yes, the most important thing is this Xuejin Pill! Back then, Grandpa spent 30 million to buy this Xuejin Pill. I gave it to Mu En, and Grandpa was furious for a long time. He wanted to buy another one, but no matter how much he paid, he couldn't get a single pill. Such a precious medicine, and she actually has a bottle! How is this possible? This girl is so suspicious!"
"But now, the old man believes in her, you can't go against him too much. You know his temper. No one can be tougher than him. You can't confront him head-on, don't you think?" Song Nan coaxed softly.
Duan Si raised his eyebrows and finally listened to Song Nan's words. "Then tell me, what should I do?"
Song Nan smiled and gently patted Duan Si's back. "Auntie, you are the smartest person. Think about it, what does the old man care about most at this time?"
Duan Si thought for a moment, "Mu Ci's body!"
Song Nan said with admiration, "Yes, in Grandpa's heart, nothing is more important than Mu Ci's health. So, if you want to make Grandpa happy, you should follow Grandpa's wishes and care about Mu Ci as much as he does. He accepted Zhou Shuo, so you should accept Zhou Shuo as well."
"No, I can't accept that wild girl! If Mu Ci can get better, he must marry you! If he can't survive, the position of the eldest lady of the Mu family will be vacant for me. I won't let anyone occupy this position to fill the gap for Mu En's future wife!" Duan Si said firmly.
Song Nan almost couldn't breathe. It turned out that this woman had this in mind. From the beginning to the end, she was still thinking about her little son!
No wonder Duan Si refused to let her marry Mu Ci, even though she had revealed that she didn't mind being a widow.
Song Nan took a deep breath and forced a perfect smile. "Auntie! I'm talking about the surface. You should at least accept Zhou Shuo on the surface and not go against the old man. This will make the old man let down his guard, and then you will have the opportunity to take the next step. Either find a chance to prove that Zhou Shuo is not a good person, or find a chance to drive Zhou Shuo out. Don't you agree?"
Duan Si did not realize that her words let Song Nan know her true feelings. She was seriously considering the feasibility of Song Nan's idea.
"It's difficult for me to accept that girl on the surface. I'm not the kind of person who is two-faced and says one thing and means another!" Duan Si was very distressed.
Song Nan looked at her and patiently advised, "Auntie, please think about Mu En. Mu En is now the recognized heir of the Mu family, and he is also very much favored by the old man. As you just said, if Mu Ci is gone in the future, are you willing to let Zhou Shuo stay in this family and get in the way of Mu En's future daughter-in-law?"
Duan Si immediately shook his head, "Absolutely not!"
"So, for Mu En's sake, you have to accept Zhou Shuo reluctantly and pretend to accept her. In the current situation, it's useless even if you suspect she has bad intentions. The old man doesn't let your doctor get close to Mu Ci at all. Whether you want to expose her or drive her away, you have to make a fuss about Mu Ci. What do you think?" Song Nan advised earnestly, feeling extremely impatient.
Duan Si finally nodded, "Song Nan, what you said makes sense. Let me think about what I should do. Let me think about it carefully. I really want to think about it."
"There's nothing to think about. Just think about Mu En and Mu En's wife from time to time." Song Nan finally got it and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Duan Si nodded again and sighed, "Song Nan, if you weren't by my side, how would I have gotten through this life? Alas, it's a pity for us mother and daughter-in-law. We don't have the blessing of being mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. What a pity."
Song Nan didn't say anything.
If she were to marry her to the eldest son, he would be afraid that she would use her status to bully her younger daughter-in-law when she became a widow. If she were to marry her to the youngest son, he would feel that she was not worthy of her treasure in any way.
Song Nan felt that if he didn't make good use of such a person, it would be a shame for all the years he had endured.
