Cao San Niang fled in panic.
Cao Erdan added insult to injury from behind, chasing after her and shouting, "Mom! Don't run away! Liu Jingqiu asked me to ask you, has the rumor about the mute mother spread? Has everyone at the banquet heard about it? Has the mute mother come to see you alone? You'd better be more assertive in asking for your reward!"
Now, is there anything you don't understand?
Those rumors about the mute girl were spread by someone named Liu Jingqiu!
After all this commotion, everyone was convinced that someone had deliberately slandered the Mo family's mute mother!
However, the mute girl wasn't actually mute; she was cured!
Ultimately, not all the rumors were spread by Liu Jingqiu, but she did spread them. Later, when she heard other rumors, she tried even harder to spread them, so it's not unfair for her to take the blame!
Cao San Niang got nothing and instead made a fool of herself. She was furious and went to settle accounts with Liu Jingqiu, but let's leave that aside for now.
Back at the Mo family's place, the matter became clear, the rumors were dispelled, and the Mo family was very happy. They gave all the guests who came to the banquet various kinds of steamed buns and steamed cakes.
Those who came to the banquet ate and took gifts, and the small amount they brought was not worth mentioning at all!
Look, the gifts they gave in return far exceeded the value of the original gifts. They also had a delicious meal and drinks, and even brought back a lot of pastries when they went home!
We can have another meal when we get back!
Which banquet organizer can do this?!
These days, banquets are kept simple. Having meat on the table is already considered good; forget about whether it's delicious or not! And forget about giving a basket of pastries as a gift! Having even two is already considered nice!
So even though the people who came to the Mo family for the banquet watched the play, it didn't affect their mood at all; they were quite happy!
After seeing off the relatives, the last to leave were Master Chen and his entourage.
Gao Yuling didn't really want to go back. She thought that since the Mo family still had empty houses, she might as well stay for a few more days.
He acted on his idea immediately and told Su Nanxi, which confused Su Nanxi. Why not go back? Why stay a few more days?
Doesn't this girl miss home?
Isn't her older brother going with her? Wouldn't they be able to go back together?
She's too busy to bother with this young lady!
Don't think she doesn't know; the man next to Master Chen is Gao Yuchen, who looks quite like Gao Yuling. I'd never believe they weren't siblings!
And their names are only one character different, what a coincidence!
She was too busy in the morning, and there were too many people and it was noisy, so she didn't go outside much. She didn't even go over when Master Chen came, which was expected!
As long as Master Chen came, it didn't matter whether the busy Gao Yuchen came or not, so I didn't pay much attention.
It wasn't until he confronted Cao Sanniang that his eyes swept across the entire room, and he noticed Gao Yuchen dressed as a follower, as well as an old man!
Yes! It's that old man I met a few times on the mountain!
Don't think she won't recognize him just because he's dressed up!
He even smiled at her when she looked over! Haha!
I wonder what the relationship is between this old man and Gao Yuchen, and why they came together.
The old man is eating with great relish. Could he be starving and came all this way just to eat at this feast?
It seems not impossible that someone might go to someone's relative's house with someone they know and freeload off them!
Sigh! Who cares what their relationship is, I've sent them all away!
Gao Yuling refused to leave. "Mute Mother, no! Nanxi, I won't bother you. Just pretend I don't exist and don't worry about me! If I'm hungry, I'll find something to eat myself. If I want to play, I'll go play by myself. If something happens to me, that's my own business! I'll only stay for two days! I'm so envious of such a beautiful house! I won't feel at ease if I don't stay for a few days!"
Well!
That's what they say, but she's at the Mo family's house, how can they just ignore her!
Su Nanxi was most afraid that things would turn into chaos and she wouldn't be able to send them away. What should she do then?
However, just as Su Nanxi was starting to have a headache about how to get rid of Gao Yuling, the old man over there also began his performance.
Seeing Gao Yuling's actions, Xu Taifu was inspired and immediately tried to imitate her, exclaiming, "Oh dear! I'm too full to travel properly. I'm afraid I can't leave today. Anyway, your guest rooms are ready, so I'll stay and rest for a day or two!"
? ? ?
Su Nanxi looked at Xu Taifu, not understanding why this old man was also making a fuss. Could it be that people really regress to childhood when they get old?
Gao Yuling saw that she had comrades-in-arms, standing on the united front, working together!
"Yes! I ate too much, I think I'm really stuffed. I need some time to digest it slowly, so I shouldn't travel too much!"
Su Nanxi looked up at the sky speechlessly. They really were just a pair of children!
To stay, you can come up with such a lame excuse. Couldn't you have come up with a better one?
If Grand Tutor Xu knew this, he would definitely say, "It doesn't need to be great, just practical!"
Look, someone has asked them to stay!
The Mo couple warmly invited them to stay for a few days, which made them so proud they were practically strutting around.
Seeing how familiar these people were with Su Nanxi, the Mo couple guessed that they must be Su Nanxi's friends. Otherwise, why would they stay and refuse to leave?
Judging from their tone of voice, they were being a bit cheeky, the kind of chatter you only hear between friends!
Since they are friends, and the mute woman didn't give them the cold shoulder and kick them out, they must be quite familiar with each other.
It's rare to see a friend of the mute girl, and she's no ordinary friend at that. Since she wants to stay, let her stay for a few days. It's no trouble at all!
The Mo couple didn't think too much about other conspiracy theories; they were simply being hospitable and wanted to keep their guests company!
Master Chen and Gao Yuchen watched from the side, feeling envious and jealous. They also wanted to stay and freeload a few meals!
But they can't!
They have a lot of things to take care of and can't stay here!
They could only watch helplessly as Gao Yuling and the other woman were left behind, and they couldn't say anything.
They could have easily made up an excuse to keep those two away, but they were unwilling to bear the consequences!
They knew all too well that chaos and turmoil were the least of their worries!
Don't ask, they've been through it!
If they're too rowdy, they'll drive you crazy!
So, she could only watch them both gloating with envy.
Su Nanxi didn't really want to keep the two of them; she had a gut feeling that these two were no pushovers!
They said kindly, "We've just moved in, and there's a lot to do and many things to keep us busy. We really can't take care of you all the time! How about this, after we've settled in for a while, you can come and visit us again?"
Kao Yu-ling immediately refused, "It's nothing! I think it's fine as it is. I'm very independent, I do my own thing, you don't need to worry about me, don't worry too much!"
Tsk!
This girl's explanation is completely unreasonable!
Grand Tutor Xu calmly replied, "I'm not picky, I'm easy to get along with, and I don't wander off, so don't worry about me!"
Su Nanxi wanted to say something, but Grand Tutor Xu didn't give her a chance to speak, and kept saying that she was full and tired and needed to rest.
The Mo family had no choice but to take him to a room to rest, and he specially chose a room for himself!
Kao Yu-ling followed the same method and successfully stayed on as well.
Knowing that the two people had no bad intentions, Su Nanxi didn't stop them and let them be.
Finally, they saw off Master Chen and his party.
"Mute girl, what's the surprise?"
