Chapter 26 Family Hatred, Song Family Legacy



bite--

At five o'clock, Mu Tingyun knocked on the door of the apartment on time to pick up Chen He to go to the banquet.

Chen He is in the toilet.

Su Jin opened the door and looked up to see a tall and straight young man standing outside. She and Mu Tingyun looked at each other in surprise.

Realizing that the old lady in front of him was Shen He's grandmother, Mu Tingyun subconsciously stood up straight and introduced himself: "You are Shen He's grandmother, right?"

"Hello grandma, I'm Mu Tingyun, Chen He's boyfriend." He had his hands empty, shook them a little stiffly, and then released them.

Mu Tingyun explained awkwardly, "I didn't know grandma was coming to Qing City, so I didn't prepare any gifts. I'm sorry."

Su Jin smiled understandingly and came to Mu Tingyun's rescue, saying, "I just arrived last night, so Chen He might not have had time to tell you. It's not your fault."

"Would you like to come in and sit for a while?" Su Jin opened the door and stood back.

"Sorry to bother you." Mu Tingyun walked into the house.

Su Jin enthusiastically went to the kitchen to pour him tea and secretly observed Mu Tingyun.

Being from a wealthy family like the Mu family, Mu Tingyun's appearance and temperament are naturally needless to say.

In terms of appearance, Mu Tingyun passed the test easily.

As for his character, that remains to be seen.

Mu Tingyun had just taken a sip of tea when Chen He came out.

Seeing Mu Tingyun sitting in the living room, Chen He was stunned for a moment and asked him: "How long have you been here?"

Mu Tingyun put down his teacup and explained, "Just arrived. Chen He, why didn't you tell me that grandma was coming?"

You have to know that when Su Jin is in Qing City, Mu Tingyun will definitely not come empty-handed.

Hearing this, Shen He's eyes revealed a look of grievance. She glared at Mu Tingyun angrily and said, "Grandma only arrived last night, and you only came back this afternoon. I didn't have time to tell you."

Mu Tingyun knew he was in the wrong.

Not wanting to leave a bad impression in front of the old lady, he stood up and politely said goodbye to Su Jin, "Grandma, I will come to visit you formally another day. It's getting late, so I will take Chen He to the banquet first."

"Okay, have fun."

Su Jin watched them leave and noticed that Mu Tingyun wanted to hold Chen He's hand, but Chen He lowered her head to look for something in her bag.

Su Jin frowned slightly, feeling that her granddaughter was deliberately avoiding physical contact with Mu Tingyun.

Is it her illusion?

After getting in the car, noticing a bouquet of white chrysanthemums on the back seat, Shen He asked Mu Tingyun, "Are we going to the cemetery?"

"Well, I haven't taken you to worship my mother yet."

Shen He shook his head, "No."

"I haven't seen my mother either," Mu Tingyun said. "She died of amniotic fluid embolism after giving birth to me."

"I've only seen her photo." Mu Tingyun told Chen He, "My mother and my uncle look quite similar."

Song Jingcheng's appearance flashed through Shen He's mind, and she said, "She must be a great beauty."

"certainly."

It is said that nephews resemble their uncles, but Mu Tingyun is more like his father Mu Xiao.

The Mu family and the Song family are actually enemies.

If we delve into this matter, we have to start from the last century.

The head of the Song family at that time was Song Qiming, a mainstay of the industrial development movement, who made tremendous contributions to the revolutionary cause and was a truly concerned entrepreneur.

Song Qiming's five children are also young people with higher education.

The situation was turbulent in that era, and college students awakened to revolutionary ideas.

With the outbreak of the May Fourth Movement, the clarion call for revolution was sounded across the country, and the five sons of the Song family also devoted themselves to the revolutionary cause.

But unfortunately, in just fifteen years, Song Qiming lost four children in succession.

The remaining one, Xiaowu, is also missing.

Seeing that the Song family had no descendants and Song Qiming was old and critically ill, the greedy Mu family began to retaliate by acquiring the Song family's assets and quickly became the leading enterprise in Qing City.

In 1950, Song Zhenguo, the youngest son of the Song family who had been missing for more than 20 years, returned to Qing City!

Everyone then realized that Song Zhenguo was not missing, but had joined the People's Liberation Army under a false name!

When Song Zhenguo returned to his hometown and saw the Song family reduced to ruins, he vowed to make sure that the Mu family would never rise again!

The Song family and the Mu family became enemies.

After the reform and opening up, the Song family went into business, and Song Zhenguo and his son Song Changan became the first group of wealthy businessmen to emerge in the country.

However, because of their ancestors' problems, the Mu family has been hit hard and can no longer catch up with the Song family.

Before Song Zhenguo died, he called his son and daughter-in-law to him and gave them his final instructions:

[Song family children will never marry into the Mu family! Anyone who does will be kicked out of the family tree and have their surname Song revoked!]

Song Changan and his wife have always followed the old man's instructions and never interacted with the younger generations of the Mu family.

However, their only daughter, Song Shenglian, ignored the teachings of her ancestors and fell in love with Mu Xiao, the young man of the Mu family, who is also Mu Tingyun's father.

What is Mu Xiao's purpose in approaching Song Shenglian? It is Sima Zhao's intention, and everyone knows it.

But Song Shenglian is in love and believes that the sins of her ancestors should not be taken out on future generations, so she insists on marrying Mu Xiao.

In order to force her parents to agree to the marriage, Song Shenglian did not hesitate to destroy her own reputation and had a relationship with Mu Xiao before the marriage.

He even deliberately found someone to catch them sleeping in the same bed, hoping to use the power of public opinion to force their parents to agree.

But Song Changan and his wife are also tough.

Not only were they not threatened or manipulated by their daughter, but on the day of Song Shenglian's wedding, they publicly announced that they would kick Song Shenglian out of the family tree and sever their parent-child relationship with Song Shenglian!

Worried that the Song family's property would fall into the hands of their enemy, the Mu family, the Song couple risked their lives to have a second child despite being in their forties.

The second child was a boy, Song Jingcheng.

Thinking about these past events, Chen He curiously asked Mu Tingyun: "What is the relationship between your father and your uncle?"

Mu Tingyun's face darkened and he didn't say anything.

It was obvious that Mu Xiao did not have a good relationship with his brother-in-law Song Jingcheng, and Mu Tingyun was probably not feeling well being caught between his father and uncle.

Shen He didn't ask any more questions.

Arriving at the cemetery, Mu Tingyun took Chen He's hand and walked to his mother's grave.

The photo on the tombstone has turned yellow. Through the black and white photo, Shen He witnessed the beauty and elegance of the Song family's only daughter when she was young.

Song Shenglian and Song Jingcheng do look very similar.

I noticed that there were two bouquets of flowers in front of the tombstone, the one on the left was white chrysanthemums and the one on the right was white magnolias.

Chen He's intuition told her that the white magnolia was given by Song Jingcheng.

Because there are three white magnolia trees planted in the yard of the Song family's old house.

Mu Tingyun put down the bouquet, took Chen He's hand, and babbled at the tombstone: "Mom, let me introduce you. This is the good girl I carefully selected. Her name is Chen He, a female top student in the Department of Architecture at A University."

"Mom, if you are still alive, please keep her healthy."

Mu Tingyun also said this in his previous life.

Shen He was very touched at that time.

Now...

Chen He stared at Song Shenglian's photo, smiling sweetly and endearingly. She said, "Ms. Song, please bless me to make a fortune and have all my wishes come true!"

I have no other concerns but to kill your son!
