Mu Yao said: "She brought her to the public before and ruined our family's face, and our reputation has been greatly damaged.
Grandpa can do some calculations. Since that incident, how many banquets, weddings and weddings have been held by noble families in Beijing, and how many invitations have been sent to our family?"
Mr. Mu Laohou had a vague idea, but he just refused to admit it: "Who has time to take care of these things!"
"There were a total of thirty-five banquets, weddings and weddings. Only eight families sent invitations to our family, and two of them had deceased people, but they didn't come to announce the funeral. We heard about it and took the initiative to pay our respects."
Mu Yao said: "I heard that a few days ago, the Chengenhou Mansion was going to hold a birthday banquet for Mrs. Chengenhou. In previous years, the invitations had been sent to our house long ago, and they would be delivered in person by the respectable children of their family, but this year
,To this day, we have not received the invitation.”
"what does that mean?"
Mu Yao frowned and said in a heavy voice: "Even if the grandfather doesn't want to listen, the grandfather will scold the granddaughter, but the granddaughter must tell the truth."
She paused and said loudly: "What happened last time was so ugly! They are ashamed to associate with us!"
"Pah!" Mr. Mu slapped her hard in the face. His eyes were red with anger and his whole body was shaking: "How dare you disobey your elders?"
A bright red palm print quickly appeared on Mu Yao's fair face, but she remained motionless and said calmly: "Just wait, in a few days, the Gu family's renegade will come to visit."
"He dares! Who dares!"
Mr. Mu Lao Hou roared loudly: "The marriage between Gu and Mu has been natural and just from ancient times to the present! No one has ever dared to break this balance, and no one has ever dared to regret it!"
"If the Gu family really dares to act arbitrarily, I will stop his family's medicine! Let their whole family die!"
Mu Yao said quietly: "Then, what if His Majesty issues an edict?"
Old Marquis Mu looked ferocious: "No one can! If you dare to touch the foundation of the Mu family and make it impossible for the Mu family to survive, then no one will live!"
This is the bottom line, he will never allow it.
The secret recipe for vitality is in the hands of the Mu family. As long as they refuse to cooperate, even if the Gu family kidnaps people, they will only die with blood and no further consequences!
Mu Yao said: "What if my aunt can't bear it?"
She said it very beautifully and euphemistically, but what she actually wanted to say was, what if Murong reveals the secret recipe in order to please Gu Yilan and doesn't want to be unlucky.
Mr. Mu Laohou sneered and said harshly: "Then I will kill her with my own hands!"
Everyone breathed a heartfelt sigh of relief.
Everyone knows that Mr. Mu Laohou doted on Murong and spoiled Murong to the point of being lawless.
Since he can hold on at the critical moment, it will be easy to handle.
Mu Yao said: "In this case, why is grandfather still angry?"
"Our family is on the verge of a storm. If another incident occurs and an innocent old man is forced to death, I am afraid that the marriages and futures of other brothers and sisters in the family will be affected in the future.
Since his father voluntarily resigned for the sake of the clan, no one in the clan can hold up a position in the officialdom.
If this continues, the clan will only weaken day by day, and one day, some people will inevitably lower themselves and join the Gu family, and the entire family will become like a pig begging for food!"
Mu Laohou looked at Mu Yao silently, his eyes gradually brightened: "Okay, grandpa listens to you! Let's endure this for now, and then we will get more back..." (To be continued)
