Chapter 163: Living a Widow



Luo nodded and said, "Yes, and if nothing unexpected happens, our Mu family will have another child in a few months."

Luo Shi hadn't seen her daughter-in-law Feng Wu for several months, and her belly had already swelled.

Luo Shi hurried forward and said to Feng Wu, "Wu'er, I haven't seen you for such a long time, your belly is showing."

"Mother bought you a lot of nutritional supplements for the fetus in the capital. You must take them on time so that the baby you give birth to will be strong and easier to take care of after it is born."

"Okay, thank you mom!" Feng Wu said.

"When I was not at home, did the second brother bully you? Did he make you suffer any injustice?" Luo asked.

"Mom, no!" It was Mu Zimin who answered.

Seeing Mu Zimin's straightforward answer, Luo glared at him and said, "I'm asking Wu'er, not you! Stop interrupting!"

Mu Zimin shut up immediately.

Feng Wu glanced at Mu Zimin, and then said to Luo Shi, "Mom, he didn't bully me, nor did he let me suffer any injustice."

"Well, it's best if there is none. Pregnant women cannot suffer any injustice. It's not good for the fetus." Luo said.

After a pause, he taught Mu Zimin, "Second brother, besides defending the country, nothing is more important than your wife who helps you bear children. You must cherish Wu'er! Treat her well!"

Mu Zimin knelt down and said, "Mother, I know I was wrong. I did let Feng Wu suffer."

Only then did Feng Wu's eyes sparkle with tears.

Luo knew there was something wrong, so he asked, "What's going on?"

Mu Zimin said, "The weather at the border was unpredictable a few days ago, and I rashly decided to go to the mountains to live and take care of the crops. I left without telling Wu'er in advance."

"When Wu'er found out, she was worried about me and went to look for me alone..."

"Wu'er had an accident and fell on the way to find me. Fortunately, it was nothing serious. She is staying in bed to rest."

"Mom, I didn't mean to hide it from you."

Upon hearing this, Luo was horrified.

He picked up the stick beside him and hit Mu Zimin with it.

"Before leaving, mother told me many times that you must take good care of Wu'er." Luo was disappointed. "Is this how you take care of Wu'er? Fortunately, Wu'er and the baby in her belly are fine. If anything went wrong, would you be able to take the responsibility? You care about the crops, and Wu'er cares about you. Don't you understand?"

"The weather is unpredictable, don't you know to stay at home with Wu'er?"

Mu Zimin lowered his head and let Luo's stick hit him hard again and again.

It was he who failed to protect Feng Wu, causing Feng Wu to get hurt.

Fortunately, someone saw Feng Wu fall and sent her to see a doctor.

Mu Zimin went back immediately after learning that his wife had fallen.

Feng Wu was angry with him for a few days because of this.

In the end, it was only through the help of the mother-in-law that Feng Wu was coaxed.

Feng Wu was not angry with Mu Zimin, but she thought that if anything happened to the baby in her belly, she would be a sinner for all eternity.

I’m sorry to the Mu family and I’m sorry to mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law cured her mother's illness and restored her mother to health.

"Mom, please don't hit Zimin. He didn't mean it. I was sleeping at the time, so he didn't have time to inform me." When Feng Wu saw Mu Zimin being beaten, he immediately stepped forward to plead for him.

Luo was not satisfied and hit him twice more.

Use force with every stick.

"Since Wu'er pleaded for you, I will forgive you this time. If you don't protect Wu'er well, I will beat you to death." Luo was very angry.

Watching his wife scolding their son, General Mu held Mu Yan and watched from the side, never intervening.

"Mom, please rest assured, I will definitely protect Wu'er well." Mu Zimin said.

"Wu'er, from now on you should just focus on taking care of your pregnancy. Don't let the affairs of this brat affect you anymore. A stable mood is good for you and the baby in your belly." Luo passed on his experience to Feng Wu.

Feng Wu nodded, "Yes, mother, I understand."

"If he dares to treat you like this again, you must tell mother, and I will beat him to death!" Luo said gritting her teeth.

Feng Wu said, "Mom, please don't do that. If you kill my people, won't I be a widow?"

Upon hearing this, Luo was stunned at first, then he suddenly realized.

She hurriedly said to Feng Wu, "I'm sorry, it's my fault for not thinking it through."

Feng Wu is right.

If she beat Mu Zimin to death, Feng Wu would become a widow.

"Mom is also protecting me." Feng Wu said.

"Mom, how are uncle and the princess now?" Feng Wu changed the subject.

Luo said, "The eldest brother is very happy in the Prince Consort's Mansion with Princess Zhaohua, so don't worry."

"Did they say when they will return to the border?" Feng Wu asked.

"It will take some time. The palace has many rules." Luo said, "The boss will bring Princess Zhaohua to the border to meet us when the time comes."

"Mom, what does my sister-in-law look like? Is she like a fairy?" Mu Zizhong asked.

"Mom, why does sister-in-law like brother?" Mu Ziwei asked right after.

"Mom, is my sister-in-law really Princess Zhaohua?" Mu Zisheng asked curiously.

Luo also answered them one by one, "It is indeed Princess Zhaohua. I heard from Princess Zhaohua that she came to the border to celebrate the Lantern Festival before and was saved by your eldest brother. Princess Zhaohua vowed to marry the man who saved her."

"It just so happened that your eldest brother was the top scorer in the imperial examination and happened to meet Princess Zhaohua who was selecting a consort. Princess Zhaohua recognized the eldest brother as her savior and chose Zishi as her consort."

After hearing this, the brothers looked at each other in bewilderment.

What my sister said is really true!

During the Lantern Festival, my eldest brother met Princess Zhaohua.

It’s just that my eldest brother didn’t recognize Princess Zhaohua.

Unexpectedly, after so many twists and turns of fate, they still ended up together.

"That big brother is really amazing! He went to Beijing to take the exam, won the first place, and even married a princess."

"Congratulations, bro!"

"Brother is definitely a winner in life!"

"Madam, now that the eldest and second sons are married, we, as parents, have accomplished two major events in life." General Mu said while hugging Luo.

"Yes, now only Zi Wei and Zi Zhongzi Sheng are left..." Luo said.

As Luo said this, her eyes suddenly fell on Zisheng, "Old Five, why are you at home? Aren't you at Jinshan Temple?"

Mu Zisheng said, "The abbot knew that my mother would be returning home today, so he asked me to go back home to see her. I will return to Jinshan Temple at sunset."

Luo Shi felt a little sad and reluctant to let you go, "Old Fifth, I'm letting you go to Jinshan Temple when you're so young..."

"Mother, I went to Jinshan Temple voluntarily, and I have already gotten used to the life there. The abbot said that after my worldly ties are over, he will let me shave my head and become a monk." Mu Zisheng said.

Luo touched Mu Zisheng's little head and learned from her daughter's thoughts that Mu Zisheng's final destination was Buddhism.
