After he finished speaking, Mu Quan added one more sentence.
"Such arrogance is truly unbecoming!"
Lu Wei readily agreed, fearing that Mu Quan might change his mind.
Mu Chenshuang watched from the side, her heart churning with emotion, but she couldn't show it.
Is it really okay to just stay in a Buddhist temple for a few days after someone has died?
We are all human beings, so why should Mu Yazhi be considered superior?
It's ridiculous that Mu Quan changed his mind because of a few words from Lu Wei. Doesn't he find it ironic?
Mu Chenshuang felt a pang of frustration, but then she thought to herself, "Honghua is truly pathetic."
In Mu Quan's eyes, one was his own daughter, and the other was an insignificant servant girl; they were simply incomparable.
However, this debt can never be settled on my side; I'll settle it slowly later.
Bringing Mu Yazhi back from the Buddhist temple won't be easy.
Lu Wei thought the matter had been accomplished so easily, and a smile appeared on her lips.
Lu Wei secretly glanced at Mu Chenshuang beside her. Seeing that Mu Chenshuang remained silent, she finally felt relieved.
“Master is right. This child does need to be disciplined properly. Don’t worry, Master, I will discipline him strictly this time. I will not let you down.”
As Lu Wei spoke, she winked at the servant beside her, signaling him to quickly call Mu Yazhi over.
Seeing that the servant was about to turn and leave, Lu Wei was overjoyed.
Just then, Mu Chenshuang suddenly put down her wine glass and spoke calmly.
“My sister hasn’t fully reflected on her actions in the Buddhist hall yet, and you’ve already disturbed her peace. What you’re doing is completely misleading Father’s intentions.”
Lu Wei's face darkened after hearing this.
The opportunity he had worked so hard to obtain was being viewed this way by Mu Chenshuang. Wasn't this just deliberately causing trouble?
The servant who was about to leave turned around at this moment.
Everyone knew that Mu Chenshuang now held considerable influence in the household, so the servant stayed put and waited quietly to the side.
Lu Wei said anxiously, "Princess, look, your sister has been there for quite some time now, spending her days eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist prayers. How can her body take it? Please agree, Princess!"
Mu Chenshuang slowly took a sip of porridge before raising her head to look at Lu Wei.
“That’s where your understanding is wrong. How can sending your sister to the Buddhist temple be considered suffering? The Bodhisattvas in the temple are watching, and your sister will be able to purify her mind and reduce her desires.”
"Only in this way can my sister realize the mistake she made. If we bring her back now, all those days she spent here will have been for nothing."
“I know you’re a little anxious. No mother doesn’t love her child, but the more anxious you are, the more you should think about her, don’t you think?”
Lu Wei was sweating profusely with anxiety, wishing she could confront Mu Chenshuang on the spot.
Mu Chenshuang is determined to prevent Mu Yazhi from being brought back.
She was seething with hatred, but Lu Wei still smiled tactfully and spoke.
"Your sister didn't think things through properly, but she genuinely knows she was wrong! You're sisters, how can you bear to let your sister suffer there?"
Hearing Lu Wei say this, Mu Chenshuang's smile became even brighter.
Sister, a sister who wants me dead all the time? I'd rather not have a sister like that.
Mu Quan watched all of this in silence.
