Not long after they started walking, it was dawn. They happened to meet the first wave of herdsmen who were out grazing cattle. They borrowed a phone and called the herdsman's family to ask someone to pick them up.
Soon the Mu family arrived, and the two returned home that afternoon.
Because Mu Shicang usually doesn't live in Mu Garden, and Yang Shushu has stayed at Mu Shicang's place several times recently. Besides, no one cares whether she comes back or not. Only last night Yu Xinggui made a fuss for most of the night, but Mu Shuya didn't believe it at all. Or rather, in her heart, it would be better if Yang Shushu died outside and never came back. Not only did she not tell Old Master Mu, she also didn't allow the servants on her side to tell anyone.
Therefore, it was not until Mu Shicang called that Old Master Mu knew what had happened. However, when the two of them got home and just changed their clothes, the police came to the door, and the first thing they said was that Mu Shicang was suspected of murder and was being taken back for investigation.
The Mu family holds a prominent position in Jinjing. If there were no solid evidence, the police would not easily come to arrest people. Now that people have come, it means that they have evidence in their hands.
really--
Then I heard the other party say, "Last night, a woman was murdered on the riverbank in the wild village. We found out that Mr. Mu had an argument with this woman not long ago and had been looking for her recently. And now we found this."
The police took out an evidence bag, which contained a famous watch. Yang Shushu recognized it as Mu Shicang's.
All this happened so unexpectedly that Yang Shushu didn't even have a chance to react before Mu Shicang was taken away. Before he left, he whispered in her ear, "Don't tell anyone about the bodyguard's note."
Yang Shushu was stunned for a moment, then she understood. The timing of the murder was too strange. It happened last night, and Mu Shicang obviously had no alibi last night. Although she could prove it, due to the relationship between husband and wife, her evidence in court would not be accepted. If she wanted to prove that Mu Shicang was not there at the time, she had to have more powerful evidence. The first one was the note he left in the bodyguard's hand. At least that could prove that he was indeed led to Huiyang Town.
However, he also specifically told her not to tell anyone else, which meant something else. Just look at the looks of the uncles and aunts in the Mu family, they were almost excited, as if Mu Shicang was proven guilty and was about to be imprisoned, and the Mu family was already theirs.
Yang Shushu looked at Mu Shilian, who was trying hard to hide his worry but couldn't hide his joy, and then glanced at Mu Shuya, who was gloating without even trying to hide it, and couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for Mu Shicang.
He has quite a few relatives, but looking at their faces, the relationship between them is not as good as the one he had with everyone in the orphanage.
She looked at Old Master Mu. From the moment the police arrived until now, the old man had only asked about the reason for the initial arrest, and hadn't said anything more since then. He seemed to be cooperating quite well with the police investigation. All this might have given some people the wrong impression that the old man was disappointed with Mu Shicang.
Mu Shiyun usually dislikes Mu Shicang. Although he is his younger brother, he has always been superior to him since childhood. If he doesn't add insult to injury now, when will he?
"Grandpa, Ah Cang is too impulsive. He's just a little star. Is he really going to mess with the hundreds of years of reputation of our Mu family? This is..."
Old Master Mu suddenly raised his head. His eyes, which usually looked gloomy, suddenly became sharp and fierce when he looked at people. Mu Shiyun was so frightened that he fell silent.
Mu Shuya was muttering quietly at this time: "No matter how biased you are, you can't do this. You've already killed someone, and you're not allowed to talk about it."
Old Master Mu looked up at his daughter and was about to start when he heard Yang Shushu speak from the side: "Aunt, have you changed your career to become a judge? The police don't have enough evidence to convict yet, and you've already made the decision? Why are you in such a hurry? Even if Mu Shicang is dead, the Mu family is not yours, right?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, Mu Shuya flew into a rage. Her old and new grudges combined, and she jumped up, pointed at Yang Shushu's nose, and started cursing, "Who the hell do you think you are? Do you have the right to speak here? Why are you killing people and not allowed to talk about it? Maybe you two were in cahoots. Who knows where you went last night?"
Yang Shushu also stood up, her arrogance no less: "No one here is more qualified than me to speak on this matter. Who do you think you are? Killing people? If I want to kill someone, I will kill you first. You evil woman, you forced your son to commit suicide, and now you want to harm your nephew? You were a poisonous snake in your previous life, right? Haven't you let go of all your poison in your previous life?"
When it comes to swearing, Yang Shushu has never been defeated by anyone. Although Mu Shuya is evil, she was raised in a large family after all. She cannot be said to be proficient in the skill of quarreling. She was so angry at Yang Shushu that she almost had a heart attack.
She turned around and complained to Old Master Mu: "Dad, look at what she's become! She actually spoke such harsh words to the elders!"
Old Master Mu glanced at her and said, "You act like an elder now?"
Mu Shuya didn't expect that her father would actually speak to Yang Shushu. Her face became even uglier. She gritted her teeth and stared at Yang Shushu, as if she wanted to suck her blood and eat her flesh.
After Old Master Mu finished speaking, he looked at Yang Shushu again: "You too, as the daughter-in-law of the Mu family, you should be tactful in your words."
No one expected that at this time, Yang Shushu would not even be intimidated by Old Master Mu: "I'm sorry, treat people in the same way as you would treat them. Proper manners are reserved for those who know their limits. Old Master, instead of lecturing me here, you might as well think of a way to get Mu Shicang out first."
No one in the Mu family dared to speak to Old Master Mu like that, not even Mu Shicang. Everyone was silent at this moment, looking at Yang Shushu as if she were a madman.
Just when everyone thought that Old Master Mu would be furious this time, they heard Old Master Mu simply say in a calm tone: "Come with me to the study."
This sentence has a deep meaning. Although Old Master Mu did not get angry at this time, it may be just to save face for both of them. But it was different when they entered the study. Mu Shuya showed a smug smile and looked at Yang Shushu, as if to say: You are dead.
Yang Shushu nodded indifferently. At this time, Old Master Mu stood up with the help of Uncle Liang and turned to go upstairs. Mu Shilian stood up at this time and asked in a worried and hesitant tone: "Dad, the company has a lot of things to do recently. With what happened to Ah Cang, someone has to step up to take charge. What do you think..."
"I'll have someone send me the latest matters." Old Master Mu glanced at his son with a sharp gaze, scaring him so much that he quickly avoided his gaze. At the same time, his heart was desolate. These were his own children, yet they were so cold-blooded for money and power that they didn't even care about the most basic blood ties as human beings.
Yang Shushu watched from the side, sneered without hiding it at all, and turned to go upstairs.
As soon as Old Master Mu left, Mu Shuya was so angry that she threw the pillow beside her: "Dad is too partial. After this incident, he still refused to let go of the power. Does he really think that the Mu family can't do without him, Mu Shicang?"
Mu Shilian didn't look at his sister. He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly said, "Call your second uncle."
