"Dad, you are old and knowledgeable, but there are many scammers nowadays, and there are many scams that you have never seen before. Don't be fooled." Cai Xiufen felt even more dissatisfied when she saw Mr. Mu defending Nian Mu like this.
He pointedly pointed out that Nian Mu was a liar.
Mr. Mu had a sullen face, and Cai Xiufen went crazy. As expected, she didn't give him any face. She did this to Zhang Yali, and now she does the same to Nian Mu.
Wasn't she just trying to ruin Mu Shaoling's good deeds by hinting that Nian Mu was a liar like this?
Mr. Mu likes Nian Mu very much and will never allow such a thing to happen.
Just as he was about to speak, Mu Shaoling's voice came from the stairs, "Auntie, are you doubting the professional ability of the person I hired?"
Cai Xiufen looked up at Mu Shaoling and frowned. It seemed that he was also involved.
Facing Mr. Mu, she already felt the pressure. Facing Mu Shaoling, her momentum instantly dropped, and she could only explain: "I just raised reasonable doubts, Shaoling, how many people have you seen who know how to make medicine?"
Can you take someone's pulse and see a doctor? I think some people just don't know how to pretend to understand. I don't want your grandpa to be deceived. I'm doing this for the sake of the elderly."
"Do you think I'm too confused?" Mr. Mu looked serious and exposed her mercilessly. Then he stood up with a cane and said, "I can clearly see everything inside and outside Mu's family.
I know what people are doing, but if it doesn't touch the interests of the Mu family, I won't say anything, but just because I don't say anything or deal with it doesn't mean I don't know, and it doesn't mean I'm not watching."
Cai Xiufen felt a chill in her heart. He was hinting at herself.
She did do some things behind the old man's back, but they were all for her own benefit.
These things do not affect the interests of the Mu family, but they are all for now. It is hard to say whether they will happen in the future.
The reason for doing these things is also very simple. She felt threatened, and the old man's eyes were too sharp, so she couldn't help but dodge.
Mu Shaoling looked at Cai Xiufen's appearance and understood.
Mr. Mu knew what Cai Xiufen did behind her back, but he did not stop it for the time being because it did not harm the interests of the Mu family.
She thought she had done a perfect job, but in fact, her every move had been noticed by the elderly.
She thought she was doing a good job...
"I have good intentions..." Cai Xiufen dodged the old man's eyes, but still refused to forgive.
Nian Mu was helpless.
Mr. Mu snorted coldly: "Nian girl, let's go to my study."
"Okay." Nian Mu also stood up and glanced at Mu Shaoling, her eyes filled with helplessness.
When she came, she had a premonition that Cai Xiufen might find fault with her because of her dissatisfaction, but she didn't expect that she could actually make the old man so angry. It's strange that the old man can be in good health after living like this for a long time.
Mu Shaoling nodded slightly and motioned for Nian Mu to go to the study with the old man.
Cai Xiufen stared. Not everyone can enter the old man's study. Even the cleaning is done by the old man's most trusted housekeeper. Others, including her, are not allowed in unless there are special circumstances.
.
After coming to Mu's house for so many years, Cai Xiufen thought that she had never been allowed to enter the old man's study, but Nian Mu was easily allowed to enter.
She was mad at the special treatment Nian Mu received.
But Mu Shaoling was still there, and Cai Xiufen found that she didn't dare to say anything at all. She couldn't help but resent Mu Ruicheng in her heart. Not only did he lose the management rights of T Group because of that shabby studio, but he also often left early and returned late at home, which made him feel uncomfortable.
She was bullied like this.
Mu Shaoling looked at Cai Xiufen's indignation and offered no comfort or apology. She just said those words and it was considered a kindness for him not to deal with her.
"Taotao." He called his son.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Taotao snuggled next to him obediently.
"Have you finished your homework?" Mu Shaoling asked.
"It's done. The teacher left very little homework today, so I did it very quickly." Taotao held his arm. Whenever this happened, he was particularly afraid of Cai Xiufen, feeling as if her eyes were carrying knives.
, can cut children like them to death with a thousand cuts.
Like a witch who eats children.
But Taotao just feels this way, but doesn't dare to say so.
"Come on, go upstairs. I'll check your homework." Mu Shaoling said. Nian Mu was in the study with Mr. Mu, and he had no intention of going in to join in the fun.
The old man's mood must be very bad now due to Cai Xiufen, so let Nian Mu coax him.
Anyway, whether she was Ruan Bai or Nian Mu, she had a way of coaxing the elderly.
"Okay, Dad!" Although Taotao had previously thought of leaving his homework to Nian Mu to check, but now that Cai Xiufen was so scary, he agreed without hesitation when he had the opportunity to go upstairs.
Cai Xiufen was furious when she saw the father and son going upstairs.
Although she is Mu Shaoling's aunt, Mu Shaoling has never looked at her in the eyes in these years. Because she is favored by Mr. Mu, the old man will not say anything if he is so rude.
Cai Xiufen feels that she has lost her status in this family.
She poured a cup of tea and poured it into her mouth. Because she was angry, she forgot about the heat and the medicinal smell.
Immediately, the tea that entered his mouth was sprayed out without any image.
"Madam, are you okay?" The housekeeper happened to see her from the side and quickly took out a few tissues.
Cai Xiufen choked on her tea and coughed twice. Her embarrassment was seen. She did not take the tissue handed over by the housekeeper, but dropped the glass in her hand to the ground.
The glass suddenly shattered on the floor.
The housekeeper looked helplessly. This was a cup that Mu Ruicheng brought back from abroad. Because of its good craftsmanship, the old man liked it quite a lot.
"Even this thing wants to bully me?" Looking at the broken glass on the ground, Cai Xiufen still felt uneasy and she picked up the teapot.
The housekeeper realized what she wanted to do and quickly reminded: "Madam, this is the old man's collection, a teapot from the Republic of China..."
The implication is that she cannot fall.
The housekeeper's words made Cai Xiufen regain some sense.
Mr. Mu was very concerned about his antiques. Previously, Zhang Yali colluded with others to steal the old man's antiques. He did not relent and asked the police to arrest her.
And now, the old man is actually willing to use this antique teapot to make tea for Nian Mu!
Cai Xiufen held the teapot and stared at the ground. If she let go now, the teapot would definitely fall into pieces, and her anger might be calmed down a bit.
But the butler is watching.
If the old man found out that the teapot had been thrown, he would definitely ask what happened, and the housekeeper would definitely not protect her...
