He was clearly excited when he saw Mu Xiaoyu.
"Little Fish, Little Fish, why are you back so soon after you left yesterday? Did the Jia family bully you?"
Although there are no restrictions on painting, I still couldn't help but feel a lump in my throat when I saw this person.
It seems this person is Mu Xiaoyu's mother, but she looks rather old.
Except for the areas covered by clothes, the rest of the body was covered in wrinkles, and the calluses on the hands were even more alarming.
This is caused by years of overwork.
At this moment, she grabbed Shen Hua's hand with great excitement, because her figure was quite large, and Mu's father also came in.
Now the two elderly people were looking at her with tears streaming down their faces, and they were pulling her to walk back.
She was very strong and pushed Xie Sichen away.
"No, you didn't bully me. I was just worried about you, so I came back to check on you. Please don't get agitated."
She was still a little curious. Jia Jue was right there, but they didn't make things difficult for him; they just pushed him away. Did they have a good impression of Jia Jue before?
Seeing that they still didn't believe her, Shen Hua quickly turned around so they could see her body and know that what she said was true.
As expected, the two elderly people breathed a sigh of relief when they saw her and knew she was alright.
"Xiaoyu, now that you're married, you can't act so recklessly next time. If the Jia family blames you, you'll be the one who suffers."
"I understand, Mother. I was just particularly worried about you, so I came back to check on you. I'm relieved to see that you're all alright."
At this moment, Mu's father went over to talk to Xie Sichen. His words were full of regret, probably because he was worried that Jia Jue was angry about their behavior and would blame Mu Xiaoyu.
At this time, Xie Sichen was not restricted, so he smiled and said it was nothing, also because he was worried that Mu's father would be uneasy, and he repeatedly assured him.
With that, the issue of the two suddenly appearing here was finally resolved.
It was also confirmed that the shepherd's parents were not people they knew. So what role did the others play? It was unknown for the time being.
"Xie Sichen, do you really think Mu Xiaoyu has any brothers or sisters?"
Xie Sichen thought for a moment and then said, "I have an older brother, an older sister, and a younger sister."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a voice was heard—a voice that sent chills down one's spine.
Shen Hua unconsciously twitched her ears. This was too much; it was almost fatal.
Unlike her discomfort, the two elders smiled broadly.
"Second sister, you're back! I missed you so much! Come here and give me a hug."
Shen Hua quickly dodged away, thus avoiding being poisoned by her embrace.
If she hadn't seen the fleeting jealousy and displeasure in her eyes, she would have truly believed that she missed her dearly.
"Second sister, do you not like Le'er anymore? Or has Le'er done something to upset you?"
She put on a very sad and upset expression, and Mu Xiaoyu's nominal brother immediately couldn't stand up straight.
"Mu Xiaoyu, how could you treat Le'er like this? She didn't do anything to you. You're doing so well now only because Le'er put in a good word for you."
Chen Hua: ...
The two people were Bu Shuang and Li Jiawen, but Shen Hua did not pay attention to them.
Instead, it was placed on another person, namely Mu Xiaoyu's nominal older sister, Xia Xue.
All the people she knew were here; she didn't care at all who the other one was.
These people are really playing themselves; their identities here are so fitting.
That's not quite right either. If it were accurate, it would mean I'm a cowardly and weak person. That's not accurate at all.
"Big brother, Xiaoyu didn't say anything, but you came up here and instead of caring about her, you blamed her. Is that how a brother should act?"
Clearly, she still cares about Mu Xiaoyu a bit more in this family. As for Le'er, she probably knows she's a little scheming.
Shen Hua didn't move. She didn't know whether the original owner was familiar with Xia Xue or what her name was now. She just looked at her, trying to see the look in her eyes that suggested they knew each other before.
It wasn't that she knew Mu Xiaoyu, but rather that she was familiar with Shen Hua.
But clearly, only Xie Sichen had the memory, and at this moment he was already standing in front of him, playing his role.
“My wife, what gives you the right to say that? So what if she doesn’t like your sister? Your sister isn’t a gold ingot that everyone has to like.”
"Big brother, I'm fine. I shouldn't have appeared in front of second sister, since she has never liked me."
Le'er became more and more aggrieved as she spoke, and the man she called "Big Brother" felt even more sorry for her, so he hugged her and comforted her.
As Shen Hua watched, she felt something was off. Were they siblings? There was something strange about their relationship.
Have I been poisoned for too long? Otherwise, why does this behavior seem so strange to me?
"Alright, alright, we're all family, there's no hurdle we can't overcome, so don't think about these things. Le'er, you and Xiaoxue go inside and cook. Since Xiaoyu and Xiaojue are here, let them eat before they go back!"
Hearing that they were to be invited to stay for dinner, Le'er's expression darkened. She hesitated, wanting to speak, but ultimately remained silent. Instead, she turned to Xia Xue with a smile and said, "Big sister, let's go in!"
The smile was as forced as it could be, but Xia Xue pretended not to see it. However, her observant older brother noticed it.
He quickly grabbed Le'er and said to Mu's parents, "Father and Mother, we only received a little grain and meat after she married into the family. If we cook it for them now, what will we eat in the future? Besides, there isn't much, not even enough for them. We just feel that sending it over is a loss, so we want to come and eat it to get our money's worth?"
"I said before that Mu Xiaoyu is a traitor. She married into a good family and is living a good life, but instead of helping us, she comes back to take advantage of us."
These words showed absolutely no mercy, completely exposing his ugly face.
Snap!
The shepherd's mother couldn't help but slap him, but she was furious.
“Zhi’er, I didn’t expect you to think this way. I know that other families value boys more than girls, but not our family. I didn’t teach you to think that way. Xiaoyu is your sister. She is just as important as you in our family. She’s not some nobody. She married into the Jia family because they were in love, not for any other reason. So don’t say these things again.”
Mu Zhi was very angry. This was the first time his mother had hit him, and it was because of Mu Xiaoyu, so he was very angry and hated Mu Xiaoyu.
Sure enough, she's a jinx. Wherever she goes, there's no peace. She finally got married, but she still keeps showing up in front of them. And now her mother doesn't like her anymore. Mu Xiaoyu deserves to die.
Mu Xiaole, who had her back turned, revealed a triumphant smile.
