Zhou Shuo smiled sweetly, "Yes, my master and fellow apprentices have always said so since I was little."
Luo Bing took out his phone and sent a WeChat message, then reached out and took the armrest of Mu Ci's wheelchair, "Let's go, Master Mu."
Mu Ci hesitated for a moment, "Someone from the Mu family also came to celebrate the birthday today."
Luo Bing didn't hesitate. "The one who comes must be someone of the level of your Mu family's heir. It has nothing to do with you. If you get humiliated in the Mu family in the future, you can rely on your wife. I will let the Shen family support you."
Mu Ci laughed, "Looks like I'll be living off my wife from now on."
Luo Bing snorted, "Just don't force yourself to eat soft rice."
Shen Bai glanced at the phone and said in surprise: "Grandma, here I come!"
Ning Xin, who was chatting with someone, immediately turned around and said, "Where is he? Quick! Let him come over!"
Chen Bai looked towards the door.
There are quite a few guests in this hall which is not open to the public, and the hosts and guests are having a pleasant conversation.
Duan Si was chatting affectionately with Mrs. Shen, Yu Ling. "I raised Song Nan myself, just like my own daughter. She's very gentle and considerate. Even our old man loves her very much. He thinks she's a daughter of our Mu family, and she'll be the same even after she gets married."
Yu Ling smiled reservedly, "Such a good girl, of course everyone loves her."
Duan Si felt that he had laid the groundwork for the event, so he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to them. He lowered his voice and asked, "Why didn't I see your eldest young master today?"
Yu Ling had long seen through Duan Si's thoughts. She smiled and glanced at the main table on the old lady's side. "Our eldest young lady and young master both grew up with the old man and the old lady. The eldest young lady is filial and always by their side. Even after getting married, she spends more time at her parents' home. As for the eldest young master, he's like a dragon that's hard to find. Not to mention you, even people in our Shen family don't see him often. Whether he's single or not, I think, except for his sister Shen Bai, no one should know, right?"
Duan Si was stunned for a moment. From Yu Ling's tone, it seemed that she was not so warm towards the eldest lady and the eldest master!
But there have been rumors that although the eldest daughter and the eldest son of the Shen family are not the biological children of Madam Yu Ling, she treats them as her own children! They have always been the role models that other families and clans are vying to emulate.
Are they all pretending?
Yu Ling looked at Duan Si's expression and felt amused.
Not to mention that she couldn't make the decision for the eldest young master at all. Even if she could, it was impossible for her to decide on Song Nan based on Duan Si's performance. She was thinking too simply. Did she think that the Shen family was a nobody and that anyone could come in just because the door was open?
As a stepmother, she has always been a decoration. When the eldest daughter reached the marriageable age, she was often surrounded by wealthy ladies. At that time, she was full of enthusiasm and wanted to do her part for the Shen family and find a good marriage for the eldest daughter. What was the result?
Ha! She didn't intend to make the same mistake twice.
Besides, the eldest young master of the Shen family is not someone that anyone can afford to offend. Not to mention her, even his biological father Shen Bei doesn't have the courage to take charge of this matter.
Duan Siben is a confused person and her reputation outside is not very good, so Yu Ling is unwilling to be hypocritical and simply makes it clear to her directly to save her from continuing to pester her.
Song Nan beside her suddenly pulled her sleeve. Duan Si was annoyed and couldn't help frowning.
"Auntie, look!" Song Nan's voice was tense.
Duan Si quickly turned around and was stunned.
A tall and straight man, as gentle as jade, walked in pushing a wheelchair, accompanied by a pretty girl in white. The grandchildren of the Shen family stood up one after another, but Duan Si did not notice.
She only saw that the person in the wheelchair was her eldest son Mu Ci, and the person pushing the wheelchair was Luo Bing, who had come to pick a fight! And wasn't the little vixen beside him the wild girl Zhou Shuo?
Duan Si lowered his voice and asked, "Why are they here?"
Song Nan also looked puzzled and whispered, "Didn't they say that it was Mu Ci who voluntarily gave up this opportunity and asked Grandpa to bring Mu En here?"
To Duan Si, this was like telling her directly that Mu Ci had changed his mind and was here to publicly assert his sovereignty! What a ruthless move! Was he going to cut off Mu En's escape route in public?
Duan Si strode out, and Song Nan couldn't hold him back.
The fingers of her outstretched hand bent and retracted the moment they touched Duan Si.
Yu Ling noticed her little action.
She had a premonition that a good show was going to happen. She didn't care what shameful things the Mu family had done, but Duan Si obviously didn't know that the person who was coming was the eldest young master of the Shen family, haha!
She didn't mind at all that someone was trying to offend the Shen family.
Yu Ling glanced at Song Nan, her voice tinged with a faint smile, "Miss Song, your aunt has a bit of a bad temper. How come she doesn't even listen to your advice?"
Song Nan showed a bit of embarrassment and said softly, "Yes, my aunt has a bad temper. She's a bit impatient."
Yu Ling looked at her meaningfully, smiled and said nothing.
This girl's scheming is probably much deeper than that of Mrs. Mu.
"Mu Ci? Didn't you agree not to come and let Mu En accompany grandpa? What? Do you regret it? If you regret it, you should wait until we get home. Why did you find us here? Do you want to embarrass our Mu family on purpose?" Duan Si stopped in front of Mu Ci's wheelchair and said angrily in a low voice.
Mu Ci originally thought that he would first meet the old man and the lady of the Shen family to finalize Zhou Shuo's "recognition of relatives", so that he wouldn't have to waste time explaining anything.
But unexpectedly, he was stopped by his own mother, and without saying a word, he started to speak harshly to her.
Mu Ci looked at his mother's angry face and was momentarily distracted.
She had never liked him, no! She had always hated him.
She hated him just like a malicious stepmother hates her stepson. Why?
Being hated by his own mother was like an invisible knife that always stabbed accurately into the weakest part of his heart. It was a dull pain that wouldn't kill him, but he always had to use all his strength to stay alive.
Zhou Shuo immediately stood in front of Mu Ci and said anxiously: "Madam, we, we——"
We what? Zhou Shuo didn't know what to say for a moment.
They came to see Second Brother's grandmother, but who would have thought that the wife would be here? And here she is, not only was she not happy to see her own son, but she came up and started to blame him. Is there something wrong with this woman's brain?
"Shut up! Do you have the right to speak?" Duan Si was angry and didn't even lower his voice, glaring at Zhou Shuo.
Zhou Shuo was also very angry. At home, she scolded and yelled at her brother at will, and now outside, she still didn't care about her brother's feelings at all.
She was about to speak when Mu Ci held her hand. She lowered her head and saw Mu Ci shaking his head gently at her.
