Old Lady Mu wanted Lin Guixiang to know that entering the Mu Family’s main gate wasn’t so easy.
She, a woman from the countryside who had nothing and was nothing, wanted to marry Mu Baicheng?
It was simply wishful thinking.
After a while, Old Lady Mu turned her head to look at Mu Xiaoxiao and smiled, "I’ve already told your dad, and we can go to Qing City tomorrow."
"Really?" Mu Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up.
As it happened,
she had long wanted to personally meet this Lin Guixiang.
"Mm-hmm." Old Lady Mu nodded her head.
Mu Xiaoxiao looked around, "Grandma, where’s my dad?"
"Your dad went to change a lightbulb for your Aunt Zheng." Old Lady Mu replied.
Hearing this, Mu Xiaoxiao widened her eyes with some disbelief, "Grandma, did my dad really go?"
She had thought that, given Mu Baicheng’s character, he definitely wouldn’t go and change a light bulb for Zheng Niannian.
"With me here, could he have refused?" Old Lady Mu said with pride on her face.
Mu Xiaoxiao gave Old Lady Mu a thumbs up, "Indeed, the older the ginger, the spicier! You’re really incredible."
The smile on Old Lady Mu’s face grew even more evident.
Mu Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes, "Grandma, at this rate, my dad and Aunt Zheng will soon develop feelings over time, and then you can wait to hold your grandchild."
Of course,
The talk of holding grandchildren was just Mu Xiaoxiao’s way of making Old Lady Mu happy.
After all, Zheng Niannian couldn’t bear children.
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Mu became even happier, as if she had already envisioned the scene of Mu Baicheng and Zheng Niannian having children.
"Grandma, what are you two chatting about that’s making you so happy?" Mu Xiaodong walked in from outside.
"We were talking about your dad and your Aunt Zheng," Old Lady Mu answered.
"My dad and Aunt Zheng?" Mu Xiaodong frowned slightly, "Grandma, are you sure you’re not confused? Isn’t my dad in a relationship with Aunt Lin?"
Mu Xiaodong totally approved of his father’s relationship with Lin Guixiang.
As a son, he knew how difficult these past years had been for his father.
He was genuinely happy that his father had found the love of his life.
Old Lady Mu realized she had misspoken and, fearing her grandson would disrupt her plan, immediately corrected herself, "Yes, yes, your Aunt Lin, my memory is getting bad with age, I can’t even remember Lin from Zheng."
Without giving it much thought, Mu Xiaodong continued, "Grandma, last time my dad said he wanted to bring Aunt Lin to visit our house, did he tell you when he’s going to Qing City to pick up Aunt Lin?"
At that question, Old Lady Mu’s expression changed slightly before she said, "That might have to wait until Xiaoxiao and I return from Wancheng."
"You and Xiaoxiao are going to Wancheng City?" Mu Xiaodong expressed his surprise.
"Yes," Old Lady Mu nodded her head, putting on a serious face, "We’re just going to see your great-aunt. I’m getting older, and if I don’t go now, I might not have another chance." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Even though Mu Xiaodong hadn’t been back to the country in a long time, what Old Lady Mu said was true; the Mu Family did have distant relatives in Wancheng City.
However, Old Lady Mu hadn’t been in touch with this great-aunt for a long time. Why the sudden impulse?
He couldn’t help but feel...
Something was off about this.
Seeing Mu Xiaodong’s reaction, Mu Xiaoxiao immediately said, "Brother, we’ve always been living abroad these past few years with hardly a chance to properly visit places in our own country. Why don’t you take this opportunity and come with us to Wancheng City for a visit?"
"Xiaoxiao is right," Old Lady Mu nodded her head in agreement, "Xiaodong, come with us for a trip."
Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaodong dismissed his inner doubts. If his grandma and sister really had other motives, they probably wouldn’t invite him in the first place.
With this thought, Mu Xiaodong smiled and said, "Work is quite busy at my company recently, so I’ll not join you."
Mu Xiaodong wasn’t like Mu Xiaoxiao.
He had his own company and didn’t work at Mu Group. It was currently the busiest time for his company. Sometimes he couldn’t even return home for several days, so how could he find the time to go out and play?
"That’s really too bad," Mu Xiaoxiao shrugged her shoulders.
Mu Xiaodong was about to head upstairs when he seemed to remember something, "Oh right, Grandma, this is for you."
As he spoke, Mu Xiaodong took a jewelry box from his suit pocket and handed it to Old Lady Mu.
"What’s this?" Old Lady Mu asked curiously.
Mu Xiaodong went on, "These are a pair of earrings I bid on at a charity auction. When dad brings Aunt Lin to our house as a guest, you can give these to her as a welcome gift."
Since it was their first meeting, Mu Xiaodong wanted to make a good impression on this Aunt Lin and let her know the Mu Family’s regard for her.
