Mu Ci reached out and pinched her face, glaring at her: "You should thank the gods and Buddhas. It is because of their blessings that you are alive and well today!"
Zhou Shuo felt pain and slapped his hand away, covering his face with his hands. He said dissatisfiedly, "I was raised by my master!"
Mu Ci was angry and amused, helpless and distressed. Looking at the cute and innocent girl in front of him, his heart was suddenly filled with joy.
Everyone in the hall, whether they were getting married or divorced, looked over, because this pair of handsome men and beautiful women was so pleasing to the eyes.
"Who is that man? Why does he look so much like the eldest young master of the Mu family?"
"Are you sure? I heard that the young master is very violent and few people dare to approach him. Besides, he doesn't like women at all! It doesn't seem like that!"
"I can't be wrong! Once, Madam Mu held a charity gala, and I saw him from afar. No one who has seen his appearance will forget it. In terms of handsomeness, no one can compare to him!"
"I heard that the Mu family is looking for someone to bring him good luck! If he can't get through this winter, he might..."
"Is this true? This is too harmful, isn't it? If she dies after six months of marriage, a family like the Mu family won't allow their daughter-in-law to remarry, right?"
Mu Ci's hearing was not amazing, but because those people did not avoid them and spoke in a high voice, every word he said fell into his ears.
His face turned ugly, and his aura involuntarily turned cold. He glanced coldly at the group of onlookers.
Zhou Shuo pushed the wheelchair out with his head held high. He raised his voice and said sweetly, "Brother Mu Ci, where are we going to celebrate our wedding?"
Mu Ci felt a warm feeling in his heart, his face brightened slightly, and he patted Zhou Shuo's hand as he pushed the wheelchair, "Go home!"
Butler Liu came up quickly and said, "Master, the old man wants you to take the young mistress back to the old house."
Mu Ci frowned, then said, "Okay, let's go back to the old house."
Only after this group of people got on the bus and drove away did the hall of the Civil Affairs Bureau finally seem to thaw.
"Whose daughter is that girl? Whose family is marrying into the Mu family? Isn't this too fast? They registered their marriage without any prior notice?"
"Yes, yes! I just heard the Mu family's housekeeper call her 'Young Madam'. This means they've officially gotten married and are returning to the old house! How come I haven't heard of which family's daughter Mr. Mu has chosen?"
"I don't know! I just heard that Mr. Mu is looking for a wife, and interested parties can send their birth dates and horoscopes to the Mu family. I haven't heard of any follow-up. I heard that not many people send their birth dates and horoscopes! Although the Mu family is a top tycoon, who would want to jump into the fire pit?"
"Hey, don't worry about it. A big reward will always bring a brave man. I heard that the Zhou family handed over their fortunes. The Zhou family's investment failed and they are almost bankrupt. Now their lives are in the hands of the Mu family. Why don't they send the girl in right away?"
"Impossible! Zhou Le is the Zhou family's darling! Besides, isn't Zhou Le already engaged to the eldest son of the Gu family?"
"Look at you, you're so ignorant, aren't you? Zhou Le! She's not the real eldest daughter of the Zhou family. She was adopted. The real eldest daughter of the Zhou family was only found over a month ago! However, this eldest daughter of the Zhou family grew up in the countryside and is not presentable! That's why the Zhou family hasn't announced it to the public. If they used this background to form a marriage alliance with the Mu family, wouldn't the Zhou family make a fortune?"
There is really no wall that is impenetrable in this world.
Before Mu Ci and Zhou Shuo arrived at the Mu family's old house, Zhou Shuo's life report had already been delivered to the Mu family's old man and Mrs. Mu.
Mrs. Mu, Duan Si, rushed into the old man's study with a pale face, "Dad! How could you agree to let such a country girl marry Mu Ci? He is your most beloved grandson!"
Mu Chen looked up at his daughter-in-law, took off his reading glasses, and asked slowly, "So, what kind of person do you want to find for Mu Ci? What do you think of Song Nan?"
Duan Si was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything.
Mu Chen snorted softly, "You watched Song Nan grow up. Her parents entrusted her to you, and you treated her like your own daughter. But Mu Ci was in poor health, and you were afraid he wouldn't live long, and that Song Nan would suffer if she married into your family. Now that I've found a wife for Mu Ci, you despise her because she's just a country girl!"
Duan Si couldn't help but say, "Our Mu Ci, no matter what, is the eldest son of our Mu family. How could he possibly marry a poor family like the Zhou family? The Zhou family's daughter grew up in the Zhou family, but she's actually a country girl. Dad, this is too, too outrageous!"
With her upbringing, she couldn't say anything more unpleasant.
Mu Chen sighed softly, "Liu Ming called me and said that they had originally gone to the Zhou family to break off the engagement. How could a kind-hearted child like Mu Ci have the heart to drag others down? But when he arrived at the Zhou family, he took one look at Miss Zhou and changed his mind. He directly dragged her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register. You are Mu Ci's biological mother. You know Mu Ci's physical condition well. In the current situation, do you have the heart to stop Mu Ci? If he really likes that girl, why should we care about her background?"
Duan Si stopped talking, tears slowly welled up in his eyes, and his eyes turned red.
"Don't I know that marrying someone to get a wedding is nonsense? But even if there is a one in ten thousand or one in a hundred thousand chance, I am willing to give it a try for my grandson!" Mu Chen couldn't help but emphasize his tone.
"Dad, please stop talking. As long as Mu Ci is willing, I won't be picky, I won't be picky." Duan Si couldn't control himself and covered his face and cried.
When Mu Ci and Zhou Shuo came back, Mu Chen and Duan Si were already waiting in the living room.
Mu Ci introduced Zhou Shuo: "This is grandpa."
"Hello, Grandpa!" Zhou Shuo saluted politely.
