Chapter 29: The Watermelon Eating Duo



"Ruyan, I really didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, come with me to the yard and take a look." Seeing that Liu Ruyan didn't believe her, Song Yanran immediately became anxious and pulled Murong Shu towards the door.

"Yanran, please be gentle and don't wake others. It's very late now." Liu Ruyan looked at the impetuous Song Yanran and reminded her in a low voice.

"Got it. Let's open the door gently and take a look secretly, otherwise Shu'er will be shy." After being reminded by Liu Ruyan, Song Yanran's movements became much lighter.

The door was gently opened a little, and two heads popped out. When Liu Ruyan saw the scene in the yard, she fell into self-doubt. Why was Shu'er chatting with Young Master Wen San in the yard? Was she sleepwalking?

Liu Ruyan pinched herself hard, and the pain immediately made her more awake. Song Yanran looked at Liu Ruyan's movements and expressions and tried hard to hold back her laughter.

"I didn't lie to you, did I? Are you dating Mr. Wen San?"

"But when did Shu'er become so familiar with Young Master Wen San?" Liu Ruyan was puzzled.

"Maybe it will be today. Fate is something that you can never predict. The more I look at them, the more I think Shu'er and the Third Young Master Wen are a good match." Song Yanran muttered softly.

Liu Ruyan raised her head and looked at the two people in the yard again. They were really a perfect match as Song Yanran said.

Murong Shu and Wen Jing, who were happily chatting in the yard, didn't notice the two people eating melons inside the door.

"Ruyan, what do you think they are talking about so late at night? What do you usually talk about with your cousin?" Song Yanran had no desire to sleep at all and just wanted to watch the show.

"Why don't you come closer and listen? I want to know too." The little girls were at the age when they liked to gossip, and Liu Ruyan was also curious, so she encouraged Song Yanran to come closer.

"No, it would be bad if Shu'er and Mr. Wen San found out. Let's wait for Shu'er here. When she comes back, we'll ask her together."

Liu Ruyan nodded and said, "It's easiest to ask Shu'er. Let's go back to sleep now. When Shu'er comes back, we'll go ask her together."

"Yes, Ruyan, let's discuss how to ask later." Song Yanran pulled Liu Ruyan to the resting place. She wanted to lie down and chat for a while and wait for Murong Shu to come back, but they both fell asleep after a while.

When they woke up, it was already the next day. The two were very upset and quickly packed up to find Murong Shu. When they left, Mu Sishu, her father Mu Shi, and Wen Zhi had already arrived.

Taking Madam Wen's situation into consideration, Mu Sishu recommended a chair to Wen Zhi on the way back yesterday. When Wen Zhi heard that this was exactly what his wife needed, he asked Master Mu to help get one for him.

Not only did Mousse Shu bring a chair over, he also had it decorated specially so that even if the lady sat on it, it would not look out of place.

Originally these were not chairs, but racks used to carry the wounded on the battlefield. Later, when he went to the southern barbarian area, he saw the ladies of wealthy families sitting on them when they went up the mountain, so Mu Sishu made some improvements to them. He didn't expect that they would come in handy today.

Mu Sishu brought a total of four chairs, one for Madam Wen and the other three for the three little girls. He felt that the mountain road was difficult to walk on and was afraid that they would get tired.

Liu Ruyan and Song Yanran were very happy to see the chair lift, especially Song Yanran who didn't like walking down the mountain. But Song Yanran was also worried.

Song Yanran walked around the chair and asked, "What if I'm carried off?"

"Hahaha, Yanran, your uncle has already thought of the problem you're thinking of, so today I've selected my own guards to carry you, and I promise they won't shake at all."

"Uncle is the best uncle, thank you." Song Yanran kept saying nice things as if they were free. Liu Ruyan felt that it was a bit exaggerated. She pulled Song Yanran's sleeve with her hand, reminding her to stop, as everyone in the yard was listening.

But Song Yanran didn't understand Liu Ruyan's good intentions at all. She and her uncle were just happy with each other. One was really brave enough to praise, and the other was really brave enough to listen.

Several people came very early and planned to have breakfast in the temple before going back. During breakfast, Master Zhihui sent someone to inform Madam Wen that she could take Wen Yu home today and she didn't need to come in the future.

Wen Yu was overjoyed to hear that she didn't have to live here anymore, and Madam Wen cried with joy, because her Yu'er could finally go home. She finally didn't have to be separated from Yu'er.

Wen Zhi and Wen Jing came here to take Wen Yu home, but what they didn't expect was that the Master of Wisdom had also figured it out.

The people brought by General Mu were indeed powerful. They really didn't feel any bumps when they sat on the chairs.

Wen Zhi thanked General Mu and Mu Sishu many times along the way. Looking at the smiling faces of his wife and son, Wen Zhi felt a sense of relief for the first time.

He was grateful to the Mu family and even more grateful to Murong Shu. The Wen family might be able to move to a higher level in the future because of Murong Shu.

My third brother Wen Jing has always been the best among his brothers. If Wen Jing had not inherited the curse, the Wen family might have gone further.

General Mu felt that Wen Zhi was particularly enthusiastic today. He usually had little contact with civil officials, and he himself was a casual person. After being thanked many times by Wen Zhi, General Mu felt that he should express his gratitude as well.

"If Lord Wen is not busy, let's go for a drink after the court session." In General Mu's eyes, there is nothing that cannot be solved by a drink, and if there is, then just have two drinks.

General Mu's face was full of sincerity. Wen Zhi could see that he was really inviting him. Wen Zhi bowed and said, "Thank you for today, General Mu. How about I treat you to a drink?"

"Hahaha, that's great, otherwise my wife will accuse me of spending money recklessly." When Mu Shi heard that someone was treating him, he was instantly happy.

But General Mu's words made Wen Zhi grasp the most important information: "General Mu is henpecked. From now on, just let your wife deal with Madam Mu."

Wen Zhi originally wanted to ask his third brother if he wanted to join them, but he found that his third brother was secretly looking at Murong Shu. Wen Zhi did not dare to keep his eyes on him for too long, for fear of attracting General Mu's attention.

Wen Zhi was extremely nervous along the way, and at the same time he couldn't help complaining about his third brother in his heart. He stayed in the mountains for a night. Was there anything he didn't know? Why did his third brother always secretly look at Miss Mu today?

Fortunately, our General Mu is a thick-skinned person. He always thinks that his daughter is the prettiest. Even if he sees Wen Jing looking at his daughter, he won't think much about it.

Murong Shu knew that Wen Jing was looking at her, and occasionally when their eyes met, she would smile sweetly. The scenery in the mountains was beautiful, the morning air was good, and there were handsome men. It was beautiful.

This wonderful mood was broken at the foot of the mountain. "My dear daughter, why did you stay overnight? Daddy was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night and came to pick you up without even having breakfast."

Looking at the exaggerated man in front of Liu Ruyan, Murong Shu knew that he was Minister Liu, his eldest brother's future father-in-law. He could not afford to offend him, so he went over to say hello first.
