Mu Rufeng came back from the military camp and went to the old lady's place. He opened the curtain and walked in and said happily: "Mom, I heard Sister Yue is here? Where is she?"
The old lady sat on the chair and glanced at her son. She had been sitting here since Shen Wanyue left. After sitting there for an hour, she finally waited for him.
She snorted: "You'd better leave Sister Yue alone and take care of yourself first."
Mu Rufeng frowned and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
The old lady held the faucet head crutch, knocked it hard on the ground and said sharply: "What's wrong? I see you are blinded by lard. I ask you what is the name of Mr. Xin's late husband?"
Mu Rufeng's expression changed, and there was a slight panic in her eyes: "Mom, why are you asking this?"
The old lady took out the jade pendant and threw it on the ground: "This is the jade pendant that Mr. Xin wears all day long. I thought it was an ordinary object, but I didn't expect that this jade pendant actually had a word engraved on it.
If it were not something valuable, would she hang it close to her body? Now that she is about to marry you, she is still hanging something belonging to her late husband on her body. What does it mean?
If she can't forget her dead husband, she will be a widow for the rest of her life. Why would she bother to harm you? I don't care. If you don't give me a satisfactory explanation for this matter, don't get married."
"mother."
Mu Rufeng picked up the jade pendant on the ground and said with a gloomy expression: "It's just a jade pendant. How could you get so angry? If it is what you mean, then wouldn't my son want to throw away all the things related to Tong Niang in the house? ah?"
Tongniang is the maiden name of Mu Yun'an's mother.
The old lady's face turned livid when she heard this: "You are simply arrogating."
Mu Rufeng's expression was very ugly. She looked at her mother and said, "Mom, you are so suspicious of Ruyi because of a jade pendant. Doesn't it mean that no matter what she does, it is wrong?"
The old lady choked, and after a while she said earnestly: "I am afraid that you will treat others wholeheartedly. They only care about your identity and have not taken you into their hearts for fear that you will be wronged. Do you understand?"
Mu Rufeng felt something in his heart. He walked over and squatted down, holding the old lady's hand and saying, "Mom, my son likes her, and she also has a son in her heart. If you are really doing it for your son's good, then be more tolerant to her."
The old lady was silent and didn't speak. Who doesn't want to marry a daughter-in-law who can treat his son wholeheartedly?
But Xin Ruyi's husband has been dead for many years, but she is still carrying his things close to her. How can she make people feel at ease?
But her son is determined to marry, what can she do?
Too many things had happened because of Xin's mother and son, and she didn't want any more trouble to happen.
After thinking for a while, the old lady finally spoke: "Since you insist, I have nothing to say, but I will tell you the ugly things first. If I find out that she has ulterior motives for you, I will never let her go!"
Mu Rufeng breathed a sigh of relief and responded in a deep voice: "Mom, just relax." He stood up and said: "It's getting late, I'll go get the kitchen to prepare food."
After leaving these words, he turned around and walked out.
Mu Rufeng walked into the night and came to Tingfeng Courtyard. From a distance, she saw Xin Ruyi doing needlework under the lamp. He stood in the yard, holding the cold jade pendant in his hand, but his thoughts gradually drifted to far away.
In fact, he had met the man named Xiao Ce. Not only had he met them, but he also said that they were the best brothers.
But......
Mu Rufeng didn't know what he thought of. He suddenly clenched the jade pendant in his hand, and his whole body started to tremble. Suddenly, Xiao Chengyi's voice came from behind him: "General Mu."
