Although Xin Ruyi didn't tell her what the bracelet was used for, she understood what she meant.
After Mu Yun'an served tea to Xin Ruyi, Xiao Chengyi also served tea to Mu Rufeng, but he did not change his words and still called General Mu.
The old lady didn't say anything because she told Mu Rufeng before they got married that Xiao Chengyi would not be included in the Mu family's genealogy. He was from the Mu family but his surname was still Xiao.
This matter was decided by Xiao Chengyi. The reason why he was not included in the Mu family tree was because of Yan Yan, because once they changed their surnames, he and Yan Yan would be real brothers and sisters.
The second is for the sake of the Mu family. Once his identity is exposed, it will bring disaster to the Mu family. It is also for the good of the Mu family that he is not included in the Mu family tree.
After everyone finished serving tea, it was time to go to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors.
The old lady was about to get up when she suddenly heard Mu Zongping say: "Mom, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year and my eldest brother is getting married. It's a double happiness, but my son also wants to add another blessing."
Hearing this, the old lady frowned and glanced at Mu Zongping.
Mu Zongping walked forward with a smile and bowed: "Congratulations, mother, on becoming a grandmother again."
The old lady's face froze, and she asked in a calm voice: "Which of your concubines is pregnant again?"
Mu Zongping said: "It is not a concubine in the house, but an outer room where the son is raised outside. Now that she is pregnant, the son wants to welcome her into the house as his wife and help manage things in the house. I hope my mother will fulfill her wish."
When the old lady heard the word "outer chamber", her expression changed. She slammed the table and said sternly: "That's nonsense. How dare you marry someone who you raised outside to be your equal wife?"
Mu Zongping was not afraid of the majesty of the old lady and said in a deep voice: "This girl comes from a wealthy family. It seems that the old lady also knows her. Yesterday, my son took the initiative and brought her back.
I also hope that mother will allow her to kowtow to you and meet you. If mother really doesn't like her son, she will not marry her."
When the old lady heard that she knew him, she was really curious. She wanted to see what kind of tricks this son was going to do, so she agreed to his request: "Okay, let's bring him here for everyone to see."
Mu Yun'an sat aside and looked at his second uncle, his eyelids suddenly twitched a few times, and he felt a faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart.
In his previous life, his second uncle did not marry any equal wife. Until the Mu family was confiscated, it was still Li who firmly held the position of second wife.
Therefore, Mu Yun'an didn't know who the person in the outer room who suddenly appeared was?
And Mu Yunhuan's mood was not much better. In the morning, she had just learned from Mu Yunan's mouth that her father was going to get married, and now it was confirmed.
Not only that, her father also took the person into his house and kept it a secret.
Mu Yunhuan really hated her father's unkindness and unrighteousness. Her mother was not dead yet, but her father could not wait to marry another man.
I don't know which vixen seduced her father so much that he refused to be a concubine and wanted to be his equal wife.
She clasped her hands tightly, her eyes full of unwillingness.
Everyone in the room also had their own thoughts. Not long after, Mu Zongping came back and helped a woman to Qingzhu Pavilion, and everyone's eyes fell on her.
But the woman lowered her head and wore a black cloak, covering her face.
Mu Zongping helped the person into the hall, then let go of his hand and called: "Xinniang, come and see your mother, eldest brother and sister-in-law."
When the woman heard this, she knelt down on the futon and bowed uprightly: "I, Liu Lanxin, have met the old lady before."
When everyone present heard the words Liu Lanxin, their expressions changed!
