The north wind howled, the sky was foggy, and icy rain began to fall.
The cold rain fell beside Murong Fu, as if it had eyes, and didn't wet his clothes at all. If others had noticed, they would have been very surprised.
Valley of Wanqiu.
Before even entering the valley, one could hear the sounds of suona horns and gongs filling the air.
"Something... has happened?"
Murong Fu's heart tightened, and he flew inside.
A funeral is being held inside.
Gan Baobao, Zhong Ling, and Mu Wanqing, dressed in mourning clothes, are paying respects at the coffin.
This outfit adds a touch of charm.
Murong Fu quickly went inside and asked softly, "Mother-in-law, what has happened?"
“Mu…” Gan Baobao parted her cherry lips slightly and changed her words: “Son-in-law, you’ve arrived. Your father-in-law passed away three days ago.”
Murong Fu said solemnly, "Who did this? I will avenge my father-in-law!"
Gan Baobao blinked and said, "It wasn't anyone. He drank too much and passed out drunk. By the time I found him, his body was already cold."
Murong Fu pretended not to see her hint and said with regret, "My father-in-law was so reckless as to die. I must take heed! From today onwards, I will abstain from alcohol!"
After a moment, he added, "Since my father-in-law has passed away, as his son-in-law, I should wear mourning clothes along with him."
"My husband— Waaah—"
Zhong Ling nestled into Murong Fu's arms and burst into tears.
Although he knew that Zhong Wanchou was not his biological father, he was still heartbroken by the sixteen years of kindness he had received in raising him.
Although Mu Wanqing did not feel sad, the atmosphere had been set so high that she threw herself into Murong Fu's arms and shed a few small pearls.
The funeral has ended.
Murong Fu and Gan Baobao went to the back hall to discuss matters.
Gan Baobao immediately said, "I killed Zhong Wanchou."
Murong Fu pulled her into his arms and comforted her, saying, "It's not your fault, it's mine. If I had been born twenty years earlier, you wouldn't have suffered so much all these years."
Gan Baobao couldn't hold back anymore, and tears streamed down her face, soaking Murong Fu's chest.
When Zhong Ling and Mu Wanqing arrived at the door, this was the scene they saw.
Mu Wanqing said, "It seems we've come at the wrong time."
Murong Fu waved to them: "No, you've come at just the right time!"
The two women hesitated for a moment, but still snuggled into Murong Fu's arms.
Murong Fu has a broad mind and can accommodate all the beauties in the world; three mere people are nothing to him.
Zhong Ling asked cautiously, "Mother, when will you marry your husband...?"
Gan Baobao lowered her head and blushed, not knowing how to answer. She had actually competed with her daughter for a man; if word got out, she would surely be condemned by the world.
Murong Fu, without blushing or skipping a beat, said seriously, "Ling'er, before I met you, I was already an old acquaintance of Bao Bao. At that time, I did not know that you were her daughter. Seeing that you looked similar, I thought you were sisters. I never expected that you were mother and daughter."
"I see." Zhong Ling nodded with a smile. "Our fate is preordained. It was destiny that my husband met and fell in love with me."
"Ling'er, your mother is pregnant too. You must be more understanding and considerate of her, okay?" Murong Fu instructed. "When she gives birth, tell everyone that you gave birth to twins."
"What? Mother, you're pregnant?"
Zhong Ling exclaimed in surprise, her beautiful eyes staring in shock at Gan Baobao's abdomen.
Don't make a fuss.
Gan Baobao glared reproachfully at Zhong Ling.
Zhong Ling gave an embarrassed smile and scratched her head, saying, "Mom~ I was just surprised. Does that mean I'm going to have a younger brother or sister?"
Murong Fu emphasized, "Ling'er, didn't I just say that those are your twins?"
"Oh~~"
Although Zhong Ling found it strange, she could only accept it.
Mu Wanqing thought of her mother, whom she had called "Master" for sixteen years, and Qin Hongmian, the Asura Blade. She probably wouldn't have a chance to have twins, right?
"Report!"
Suddenly, a servant's voice came from the outer hall reporting something.
"You all wait here, I'll go and take a look."
Murong Fu raised an eyebrow, stood up, and walked out.
The servant bowed and said, "Young master, we have a guest visiting."
Murong Fu nodded slightly and arrived at the valley entrance.
It turned out to be two acquaintances.
Qin Hongmian glared angrily at Murong Fu and loudly questioned, "Murong Fu! What are you doing here!"
Beside him was Duan Zhengchun. After a period of recuperation, Duan Zhengchun was in good health. However, due to his transformation into a celestial being, his beard had almost fallen off, and his face had become more effeminate, making him quite attractive.
"You didn't do anything to the baby, did you?"
Duan Zhengchun asked with concern, his voice also having a somewhat feminine quality.
Murong Fu sneered, "Hmph! You dare to trespass on my Canhe Manor and question me?"
"What Canhe Manor? This is clearly Wanchou Valley."
Qin Hongmian pointed to the large rock at the entrance of the valley.
Murong Fu sneered, raised his hand and waved it, causing the writing on the stone to fall off. Then, four large characters were carved in quick succession: "Canhe Manor!"
"you!"
Qin Hongmian was enraged by Murong Fu and wanted to take action.
Duan Zhengchun quickly pressed down on her shoulder, "Hongmian, don't be impulsive."
"Young Master Murong, I have offended you greatly. I apologize."
Duan Zhengchun bowed deeply, his attitude extremely respectful.
"You think an apology is enough to settle things?" Murong Fu said coldly. "Then I'll kill you, burn paper money for you, and consider it done?"
Upon hearing this...
Duan Zhengchun looked embarrassed.
Qin Hongmian was furious and shouted, "Murong Fu! You just want to kill us, don't you? Just kill us! Why waste your breath!"
"Okay, this is what you asked for."
Murong Fu smiled.
"don't want!"
A gasp came from behind.
