Family affection? Is it important to have rights?

Chapter 179 Small Pond

Mu Tangxi could see that Mu Jinrong had been trained to be like his father since he was a child. His clothes, hairstyle, and even the way he walked were very similar to his father's.

Lin Xueruo seemed to want Mu Jinrong to be her second father.

Although Mu Jinrong lost his composure due to a series of events as soon as he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, if Lin Xueruo really wanted him to grow up to be like his father.

So based on the image that Lin Xueruo has in her mind, would she raise a vicious child?

No, she will let her child become a gentleman as described in the book.

Mu Tangxi looked at Mu Jinrong's somewhat unacceptable expression through the crack in the door, and the curve of his mouth deepened.

"Why are you so excited? I'll think someone close to you did it, so you're taking the blame for her."

Mu Jinrong gritted his teeth and looked at Mu Tangxi fiercely, "What on earth do you want to do?"

Mu Tangxi smiled when he heard this, "You should ask what you are doing. It's so nice for you to live outside. It's safe and free, and you can live as you please."

"But you insisted on knocking on the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion in front of everyone, took the initiative to step into this mansion, and wanted to harm us. What do you want to do?"

Mu Jinrong was stunned and took the initiative to recall the things he had deliberately forgotten.

He never asked his sister why she suddenly took him to the Prime Minister's Mansion that day, never asked why his mother fainted that day, never asked his sister what she was thinking...

Will my sister really take care of mother?

Now that he thought about it, Mu Jinrong realized that he seemed to have been pretending to be stupid and ignoring what his sister had done.

If only my sister hadn’t brought him to knock on the door of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, my mother wouldn’t have been hurt.

The things he had ignored slowly surfaced in his mind. When he could remember, his sister was fiddling with something in the kitchen for a while, and after a while she went to the study to write something.

I tease him when he's bored, but other than that, it seems... he's not very close to his mother.

When my sister looked at the silver jewelry given by my father, her eyes were even more passionate than when she looked at them.

Mu Tangxi lowered her head slightly and looked at the child with out-of-focus eyes, and curled her lips slightly.

"I wonder if my third brother is going to get into trouble too. If he does, then father will do everything he can to find out who is really behind it. You just wait in the ancestral hall."

After saying that, Mu Tangxi left.

Mu Jinrong came back to his senses the moment Mu Tangxi left. The dazzling sunlight suddenly shone on his face and he closed his eyes subconsciously.

It seemed that ever since he entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, his mother was injured, and he himself entered the ancestral hall, feeling very bad.

If only I hadn’t entered the Prime Minister’s Mansion…

When Mu Tangxi returned to the courtyard, Lingyi had been waiting in the house for a long time. "Master, all the women of appropriate age are willing to sacrifice. Here are their portraits."

She glanced at them casually and said, "No need to show them to me. I'm not the one choosing a wife. Just let them choose a woman to get close to based on Shen Qiu's personality."

"Tell them not to force themselves."

Lingyi bowed his head and replied, "Yes."

Mu Tangxi lowered his head and read the book quietly, while Lingyi hid in the shadow of the master's room, restraining his breath and reducing his presence to a minimum.

Dongzhu came back after a long time and brought food with him.

"How's the second brother doing?"

Dong Zhu put the food in the lunch box on the table and replied, "The Second Young Master has successfully turned his attention to the Second Young Lady, and the servants have also been dealt with. I estimate that there will be movement soon."

"well done."

Mu Tangxi waved his hand and asked Lingyi to come and eat as well.

On the other side, Mu Jinbai opened his eyes in the dim room, and heard the servants' whispers outside the door.

"The Second Young Master was really..."

"Shh, don't say that, the last batch of servants haven't come back yet!"

"So it was really the Fourth Young Master who did it? I don't think he could have knocked out two servants and dragged them into the house!"

"Yes, it's better to say that the second young lady is a possibility after all! How could this happen just when she was sick? What a coincidence!"

"Yes, Master also guessed that someone else was involved in this matter, but the Fourth Young Master was unwilling to reveal the other person. It must be someone familiar to the Fourth Young Master!"

……

Mu Jinbai lowered his head and murmured, "Coincidence?"

He scratched his body nervously, always feeling that his skin was itchy and dirty.

No matter what, he must have an enemy to divert his attention and take revenge on!

Mu, Lian, Xue!

Mu Jinbai suddenly stood up, strode to the door, pushed it open, stared at the servants at the door, and said hoarsely, "Come here, drag them away and beat them with a stick thirty times. If they are not dead, give them a mute drug, break their legs, and let them become beggars!"

Then he walked out of the yard and headed towards Mu Lianxue's yard with a clear goal, with murderous aura on his body, as if he was going to kill someone.

Mu Jinbai was lucky along the way and didn't meet any servants, so he quickly arrived outside Mu Lianxue's yard.

He coldly watched Mu Lianxue being scolded by the disciplinary nanny in the yard, "Why are you always crooked? Haven't I taught you many times? Do it again a hundred times!"

Mu Lianxue gritted her teeth and persisted, glaring at her from time to time where the disciplinarian couldn't see.

The more Mu Jinbai looked at her, the more he felt that she was the one who had schemed against him. However, it didn't matter even if she admitted her mistake. He just wanted to vent the madness and anger that had been pent up in his heart.

He walked directly into Mu Lianxue's yard in a dignified manner and looked at her with a sinister look on his face.

The disciplinarian was startled when she saw the second young master, but she was sent by the lady, so she didn't say anything.

The other servants also lowered their heads, pretending nothing had happened, and continued to work.

Mu Jinbai easily came behind Mu Lianxue, then grabbed the woman's hair and walked towards the small pond next to her.

Mu Lianxue's hair was pulled mercilessly, and she angrily cursed the person who was pulling her hair.

The disciplinary nanny swallowed her saliva, followed the second young master carefully, and wanted to persuade him, "Second young master, this is not a good idea."

Mu Jinbai walked leisurely. He glanced at the nanny casually and said gently, "How about you change it?"

The nanny immediately stopped talking and quickly stepped aside.

Mu Jinbai withdrew his gaze. Even though the woman under his command was struggling hard, she was still no match for the man's strength.

After arriving at the small pond, Mu Jinbai grabbed Mu Lianxue's hair tightly and pushed her into the water.

Seeing her struggling desperately, Mu Jinbai's smile became even brighter. He didn't care about the wound on his arm caused by Mu Lianxue's scratches, and still held her down as steadily as a rock.
