Mu Zongping hurriedly helped her up and said: "I heard from the housekeeper this morning that when you come back, where can you sit down?
You've been gone for more than a year, but you haven't even received a letter. I'm really worried."
Mu Yun'an had been away for so long, and indeed she hadn't even written a letter home. She didn't want to tell Mu Zongping about what happened to Nanyue and make him worry, but she had to think of a suitable reason.
then......
Mu Yun'an said aggrievedly: "It's not that I don't want to write, it's that Brother Yi doesn't let me write.
He said that writing too many letters at home will make my second uncle miss me more, which is not good for your health."
"Nonsense."
Mu Zongping looked at Xiao Chengyi behind Mu Yunan and said, "I'm afraid the prince has any objections to me?
You are so domineering over my niece that you don't even let her write a family letter. It's a bit too domineering. After all, I am also her second uncle."
Xiao Chengyi: "..."
This is really a strange injustice in the world. His family, Yan Yan, deceived people and they almost refused to recognize each other.
But he can't expose it yet. If he offends others again, he won't get any good fruit.
Xiao Chengyi touched his nose and could only bear the blame: "It's my fault, second uncle, don't be angry."
Mu Zongping snorted: "Although you are kind to our Mu family, I still have to say some things that should be said. You set up a trap for Yan Yan to marry far away, which caused her to shed so many tears.
You hid such a big thing from us, even though it was for the sake of the Mu family, but you went too far."
Xiao Chengyi listened to Mu Zongping's teachings and thought to himself that he was lucky not to know what happened to Yan Yan in Nanyue, otherwise he would have been able to endure today.
Although he is not afraid of Mu Zongping, he is still Yan Yan's second uncle and their elder, so he still has the respect he deserves.
Mu Yun'an saw that Xiao Chengyi didn't dare to express her anger, and listened to Mu Zongping's instructions seriously. She couldn't bear it, so she quickly stopped Mu Zongping and said: "Second uncle, I'm hungry, let's go eat."
Upon hearing this, Mu Zongping immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "The kitchen has already prepared the meals, which are all your favorites. Come on, let's go have a meal."
Xiao Chengyi breathed a sigh of relief and went to eat with them.
Fortunately, at the dinner table, Mu Zongping did not scold Xiao Chengyi anymore, but asked him some things about Nanyue, the current situation in Beichen, etc.
Xiao Chengyi dealt with it carefully, but after finishing the meal, Mu Zongping called him over alone and said a few words.
When he went out, Xiao Chengyi's face was really expressionless.
Mu Yun'an felt strange and asked, "What did the second uncle tell you? Why do you have such an expression?"
Xiao Chengyi said: "Just remind me, let me pay attention to my propriety, say you are still young, let me not bully you."
Mu Yun'an almost choked at his words. She glared at him and said, "It's not your fault."
Xiao Chengyi responded dullly: "It's my fault."
Mu Yun'an felt something was wrong: "Second uncle just said a few words to you, why did you have such a big reaction?"
Xiao Chengyi stopped and looked at her and said, "Yan Yan, you have to save me."
Mu Yun'an was startled by his words and asked hurriedly: "What happened?"
Xiao Chengyi was heartbroken and said, "My second uncle reminded me of something he said. He said that my father-in-law is the most protective of his shortcomings."
He held Mu Yun'an's hand and said pitifully: "The suffering you suffered in Nanyue cannot be hidden from your father-in-law.
When he sees me, he probably even wants to kill me, Yan Yan, you have to save me."
When Mu Rufeng left, Mu Yunan was on the way to get married. A series of things happened later, which must not be hidden from Mu Rufeng.
