Grandpa Mu is in good health and has been taking the pills Xu Xinning gave him recently. Xu Xinning is quite confident in her pills.
Mu Zhenting's hidden injuries have been almost healed. This time, Xu Xinning will change his prescription, and it is estimated that he will be fully recovered in another six months. After that, she will give him some supplements, and he should be able to fight tigers on the mountain without any problem.
Shen Yuqin was already more than a month pregnant. Grandpa Mu was unaware of the situation and was very happy, thinking that the family was about to be joined. Nothing could make an old man happier. However, when he saw Mu Zhenting's increasingly dark face, Grandpa Mu's heart skipped a beat.
Mu Jingheng has already told Grandpa Mu about Wang Yanping and Shen Yuqin, and also revealed Wang Yanping's secret identity. It's estimated that everything that needed to be investigated has been investigated by now. It's just a long-term strategy to catch a big fish and wait for the right opportunity.
Shen Yuqin's identity is not in question; she simply couldn't stand the loneliness and committed a moral transgression, which is now confirmed.
In this era, lifestyle issues were strictly enforced, let alone military marriages.
When Mu Zhenting looked at Shen Yuqin, her body trembled involuntarily. She knew that her situation was serious.
Shen Yuqin reacted quickly, grabbing Mu Zhenting's arm and bursting into tears.
Shen Yuqin: "Zhenting, I'm sorry, Zhenting, this was not my intention. I was forced into it. I was afraid you would be angry, so I didn't dare to say anything. I never expected it to cause such a big mistake."
Xu Xinning's mouth dropped open. She thought she had the victory in her grasp, but she never expected this woman to be so cunning.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Without some cunning, how could she have risen to her current position?
Although Xu Xinning had experienced many power struggles and palace intrigues in her previous life, she had never witnessed them firsthand because her family was simple. Seeing Shen Yuqin's reaction now, she found this woman quite interesting.
Xu Xinning didn't understand Mu Zhenting and Old Master Mu, and wondered if they would let this woman turn the tables for the sake of their reputation.
If they really do nothing, Xu Xinning might just run away with Mu Jingheng and never come back.
It's no wonder Xu Xinning has such suspicions. After all these years of fighting between Mu Jingheng and Shen Yuqin, how could Shen Yuqin really be completely unaware of Mu Jingheng's grandfather and Mu Zhenting?
Xu Xinning didn't think so. However, they felt that Mu Jingheng hadn't suffered any losses. For the sake of so-called family harmony, and considering that Shen Yuqin had managed the household well and had given birth to Mu Jingshu, they chose to remain silent.
Xu Xinning was protective of her own; she couldn't bear to see Mu Jingheng feeling uncomfortable.
If Mu Zhenting and Old Master Mu are still hesitating, she doesn't mind giving Shen Yuqin some good things, so they can see what Shen Yuqin's true colors are like.
Anyway, all Xu Xinning knew was that Mu Jingheng didn't want to tolerate Shen Yuqin anymore. Since he didn't want to tolerate her, why shouldn't she help him out?
Mu Zhenting shoved Shen Yuqin away, as if afraid of getting something dirty on her, and patted the spot where Shen Yuqin had touched him. He looked at Shen Yuqin coldly and said, "Forced to do it? Tell me how you managed to do it. Call Comrade Wang Yanping in to listen too."
Shen Yuqin felt as if all her strength had been drained, and she plopped down on the ground. So he knew everything. Then why had he tolerated them for so long? What a cruel heart! He could endure for so long just to get rid of her.
Shen Yuqin felt she couldn't get past this ordeal. She slowly stood up from the ground, no longer pretending, and looked directly at Mu Zhenting, accusing him: "Although I come from a humble background, I wanted to wholeheartedly follow you and live my life with you. Over the years, I've helped you raise your children. Even if I haven't done anything meritorious, I've still worked hard. Don't you bear any responsibility for how I am acting today? Ask yourself honestly, how many times have you ever spoken to me properly? Although you've never hit me and have given me enough living expenses every month, you've always had a cold face. My heart is made of flesh and blood. I can also feel cold and disappointed."
Mu Zhenting: "So you went to find other men to warm your heart? You should have known what kind of person I was when you schemed against me. Since you've already made your choice, why don't you stick with it? If you can't stand loneliness, you shouldn't have chosen to be a military wife."
Old Master Mu was probably afraid that Mu Zhenting would disrupt their plans, so he immediately called for Fu Zhihong at the door.
Grandpa Mu: "Xiao Fu, call Xiao Wang in."
In fact, Wang Yanping wasn't far away; he just didn't know what was happening inside because the door was closed.
Hearing Old Master Mu tell him to go in, he had a bad feeling.
Upon entering, Wang Yanping saw Mu Zhenting with a dark face and Shen Yuqin with tears still wet on her face, and he guessed that the scandal had come to light.
Wang Yanping had considered this possibility, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly, so quickly that he hadn't fully planned his escape route yet.
He knew that if this matter were exposed, his and Shen Yuqin's futures would be ruined.
Old Master Mu: "Xiao Wang, you've been with me for many years now. What do you have to say about what happened between you two?"
To be honest, Wang Yanping really admired Grandpa Mu. If it weren't for Shen Yuqin, he might have continued to follow Grandpa Mu.
Perhaps this is fate. From the moment he fell in love with Shen Yuqin and decided to follow in her footsteps, it was destined that his life would be difficult. What's more, he did such a rebellious thing in order to get Shen Yuqin.
But he never regretted falling in love with Shen Yuqin.
Seeing that Wang Yanping was keeping his head down and not speaking, Old Master Mu said again, "Then let's send him to a military court."
"No!" Shen Yuqin said anxiously. If she really went to a military court, she would be finished. She didn't care what would happen to Wang Yanping.
"Don't you ever think about Jing Shu? She's a child of your Mu family. Aren't you afraid that sending me to a military court will affect Jing Shu's future?" Shen Yuqin threatened.
Mu Zhenting sneered: "You're thinking of Jing Shu now? When you were doing illicit things with other people, did you ever think of her?"
Old Master Mu sighed deliberately, as if he had really softened. He frowned and thought for a while before saying, "You two should part amicably. Even if it's for Jing Shu's sake, and for the sake of our Mu family's reputation, just get a divorce. As for what will happen to you and Xiao Wang after the divorce, we won't pursue it anymore. Of course, it's impossible for Xiao Wang to stay by my side or stay in the army."
Wang Yanping stood up and solemnly saluted Old Master Mu, then said with guilt and reluctance, "Commander, thank you! I'm sorry!"
Grandpa Mu waved his hand and said nothing more.
Wang Yanping walked to Shen Yuqin's side, reached out to help her up, and tried to take her with him, but Shen Yuqin ruthlessly shook him off.
Wang Yanping looked at his empty hands and stared blankly for a long time.
Shen Yuqin turned around and went back to her room. She was waiting for Mu Jingshu to return. How could she swallow this anger if he just left like that?
It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
She, Chen Yuqin, has already lived her current life; how could she possibly go back to the past?
