Chapter 195 Kowtow
Chapter 195 Kowtow
Mu Wenyu saw everything that happened just now. He was very confused about where Mu Lianxue learned such a messy idea from.
I just watched from the sidelines before because I wanted to see their true intentions.
So as to avoid causing trouble in the Prime Minister’s Mansion in the future.
Mu Lianxue's methods were a bit too extreme. She even extended her hand to her own family. He had thought it was done by political enemies before, but he didn't expect it was because of her.
As for Lin Xueruo...she revealed the identities of Mu Tangxi and Mu Lianxue in order to protect herself. Besides, even if she didn't say it, Mu Wenyu would stand up.
Looking at the chaotic crowd in the yard, Mu Wenyu pinched his brows expressionlessly and said, "Everyone go back!"
The servants left quickly, leaving Xu Jingshu and her group standing there stiffly.
Mu Wenyu glanced at Mu Tangxi and Mu Lianxue with a complicated look. Originally, he didn't want Xier to know about this. After all, it would be bad if it affected her marriage with the third prince.
But looking at Xier's calm expression, Mu Wenyu also breathed a sigh of relief.
But Mu Lianxue...
This person's behavior logic is very strange, and the words he says are also strange.
"Madam, what do you want to do?"
Xu Jingshu looked at the master with a pale face and said stubbornly: "I am just seeking revenge for the three children!"
Mu Wenyu paused, "Then what do you want to do by having the servant hold a torch in broad daylight?"
Xu Jingshu replied calmly, "It's just a way to punish those who hurt my son."
Mu Wenyu frowned and asked coldly: "Then you just said you wanted to burn two people?!"
Xu Jingshu's fingers trembled, and after a moment she laughed, "I want to kill Lin Xueruo and Mu Jinrong, is there anything wrong with that?"
Mu Wenyu didn't expect the lady to admit it so quickly. "Come here, lock the lady back in the yard. No one is allowed to let her out without my order!"
Xu Jingshu shouted, "Who dares!"
Then she looked up at the master again, "Mu Wenyu, do you not want the help of the Zhenbei General's Mansion? Now I haven't hurt them, which cancels out the time when you lied to me."
After saying that, Xu Jingshu decisively took the children away.
Mu Lianxue stood there hesitating for a while, then ran towards the lady.
It would be better for me to go to my biological mother than to stay here any longer.
Mu Wenyu looked at Lin Xueruo for a long time, looked at the red corners of her eyes, watched her cry silently, and sighed after a while.
"You don't have to pretend in front of me. I already know this."
Lin Xueruo's eyelashes trembled, and she wanted to play dumb and fool him, "What is my husband talking about?"
Mu Wenyu hugged Lin Xueruo and said, "I already knew that the two children were swapped. Otherwise, do you think you can sneak into the Prime Minister's Mansion?"
Lin Xueruo buried her face in her husband's chest and said nothing.
Mu Wenyu stroked Xue Niang's hair and comforted her softly, "I won't blame you. After all, I was the one who let you down first."
As he finished speaking, he noticed the woman in his arms trembling slightly, and his chest felt wet.
Mu Jinrong looked at his father and mother hugging each other in a daze. What did his father mean by that?
Did father know from the beginning that mother had swapped my sister?
Why not stop it?
Mu Jinrong subconsciously recalled what Miss Mu had said to him: Father is the root, father is the root of everything.
My father caused all of this to happen.
Mu Jinrong's eyes darkened, but the two adults who were hugging each other did not notice Mu Jinrong's change.
Mu Tangxi did not leave, but followed his mother to her yard.
Mu Jinfeng, the other two and Mu Lianxue also followed their mother's footsteps.
Xu Jingshu looked at Mu Tangxi and Mu Lianxue with complicated eyes. One was the one she raised since childhood, and the other was her biological daughter.
"Lianxue, kneel down in front of your elder brother, second brother, and third brother, and kowtow three times to each of them!" she said mercilessly.
The expressions of Mu Jinfeng and the other two turned ugly. It was obvious that their mother just wanted to save Mu Lianxue!
Just asking her to kowtow three times, and expecting them to let Mu Lianxue go? !
Even though they are siblings, they once wanted to kill each other!
But faced with the mother's pleading eyes, the three of them could only swallow their anger.
Mu Tangxi was a little surprised. Her mother actually wanted Mu Lianxue to just kowtow a few times in order for her eldest brother and the others to forgive what she had done?
But Mu Lianxue had no idea what was going on. She just thought that her mother disliked her and wanted to punish her.
But at this moment she had no way to go, and it was good enough that she was still alive after saying those words.
So she gritted her teeth, controlled her expression, and knelt down and kowtowed to the three young masters with an expression that showed she knew she was wrong.
But Mu Jinfeng, Mu Jinbai and Mu Jinxi had already seen through Mu Lianxue's fragile disguise, so when Mu Lianxue was about to finish kowtow nine times, Mu Jinbai interrupted.
"Lianxue, you don't seem to be sincere enough. Why didn't you kowtow as you promised?"
Mu Jinbai simply ignored his mother's gaze and lowered his head to look at Mu Lianxue with a vicious look.
Mu Jinxi followed closely behind, and he was even angrier, "Since you are not sincere, then double it! Kowtow eighteen times, remember it's kowtow!"
Mu Jinfeng didn't want to let Mu Lianxue off so easily. "Eighteen doesn't sound right. How about thirty? It'll be a perfect number, ten for each person."
Mu Lianxue listened to their request in surprise. She turned to look at her biological mother, "Mom!"
Xu Jingshu sighed, and finally said helplessly, "Lianxue, you have hurt them a lot. If you were not my biological daughter, they would have ignored me and tortured you to death."
Although Xu Jingshu was explaining, the threat in her words was obvious.
Disobey? You can, but you will die.
Xu Jingshu didn’t care much about Mu Lianxue’s life or death. In her opinion, it didn’t matter. Mu Lianxue didn’t have much value anyway.
This is the last warning.
Mu Lianxue gritted her teeth, knelt on the ground and banged her head hard on the ground, "Bang!"
Mu Jinfeng and the other two looked at her in surprise. She was really cruel to herself.
Mu Tangxi didn’t think that her elder brother and the others would let Mu Lianxue go after she kowtowed.
Big brother and the others have lost face in front of many people, but here there are only them and no outsiders.
They won't accept that.
From now on, you will be able to see fights between siblings.
After Mu Lianxue kowtowed thirty times, Mu Jinfeng and the other two did not continue to make things difficult for her.
Before, the mother let them vent some of their anger, but now the mother was a little tired. If they caused trouble again, the mother would punish them.
Mu Lianxue's forehead was covered in blood, with blood slowly flowing down. She lowered her head and stopped talking.
Xu Jingshu was a little worried, but when she saw Mu Tangxi, she suddenly remembered something, "Lianxue, how about I let the person who taught Tangxi teach you?"
"it is good."
