From Folly to Fortune:I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!
Chapter 653 - 649: Learn to be Smart (Four Updates)
The general method was explained by Mu Shuangshuang to Da Lang, but the specifics were up to Da Lang.
Master guides you to the door, practice lies in oneself.
Da Lang pondered for a moment and returned to the Old Mu Family.
As for Mu Shuangshuang, she called Lu Yuanfeng, and the two went out for a walk.
Emotions between people need constant elevation.
Mu Shuangshuang tried to find some time every day to be alone with Lu Yuanfeng.
Walking side by side on the village path, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng strolled.
"Fengzi, I really like the current state of life, a happy family without any pressure."
The only downside is the people from the Old Mu Family, like flies, occasionally buzzing around the third branch.
It was already evening, in the sky, a crescent moon hung overhead.
A small animal’s cry could be heard nearby.
In this environment, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng standing together both felt relaxed and mutually attracted.
Lying on the grass, Mu Shuangshuang gazed up at the sky, the starry night as beautiful as ever.
"Fengzi, do you have anything you particularly like?" Mu Shuangshuang asked.
"I do, Shuangshuang!" Lu Yuanfeng replied without hesitation.
Mu Shuangshuang raised her hand and flicked Lu Yuanfeng’s head, though not with much force.
"You’re talking nonsense again, I meant things, not people!" Mu Shuangshuang explained, blushing.
Lu Yuanfeng chuckled, turned his head, and looked at Shuangshuang beside him.
He gazed at her profile, even seeing just half of her face, he could admire the defined contours and the elegant curve of her raised chin.
Suddenly, Lu Yuanfeng felt a flutter in his heart.
He stared at Shuangshuang wide-eyed and suddenly said, "Shuangshuang, I want to hug you."
Lu Yuanfeng was the simplest man Mu Shuangshuang had ever met, he would always consult her first for any thoughts he had.
Sometimes, even for the smallest things, he showed her the utmost respect.
Mu Shuangshuang had been grateful for this countless times. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
"Hmm!" Mu Shuangshuang nodded softly, her face covered in a rosy glow in the darkness.
After waiting a moment, a broad embrace enveloped Mu Shuangshuang.
With a warm feeling surging in Mu Shuangshuang’s heart.
For a moment, the two only see each other in their eyes.
Their eyes instantly became incredibly gentle, almost as if they could drip water...
As Mu Shuangshuang was being escorted back, Lu Yuanfeng’s face was still flushed.
Despite being the one who suggested the hug, he ended up feeling like Shuangshuang had taken advantage, leaving Lu Yuanfeng amused and helpless.
Under the crescent moon, Lu Yuanfeng delivered Mu Shuangshuang back to the third branch, and as he turned to leave, he ran into Da Lang who was up to no good.
Da Lang had never done anything truly vile, he just wanted a simple payback for his uncle, like throwing some poop at his uncle’s door.
Nothing too immoral, Da Lang dared not cross that line.
But such methods were childish, causing no real impact on Mu Dade.
Lu Yuanfeng taught Da Lang a more effective way.
Sneak up to the main house’s roof and remove the tiles, by the next day, they’ll naturally be scared.
The two quietly moved a ladder, and together removed several tiles from Mu Dade’s house, before Lu Yuanfeng returned home.
That night, an autumn rain fell, soaking the rooms of Mu Dade and Mrs. Jin whose tiles had been removed.
The two awoke freezing, drenched from head to toe.
Cold enough for their teeth to chatter.
Before the next day, the incident made such a stir in the Old Mu Family, it was chaos.
Mr. Mu spent the entire night on edge, and first thing in the morning, he went to find Matchmaker Sun to visit the Huang Family Village.
This wasn’t enough, he specially sought out Da Lang to discuss the matter.
The implication was naturally for Da Lang to persuade people to come back, the marriage couldn’t be canceled.
Da Lang listened to Mu Shuangshuang’s advice and was resolutely unwilling.
"Grandpa, I won’t go. This mess you got yourselves into, you clean it up yourselves."
Mr. Mu’s hair turned white from worry.
He actually knew, Miss Huang was meant for Wang Laoda, now that the marriage was called off, the tiles on Laoda’s roof disappeared overnight.
If this drags on, something big will happen.
"Da Lang, everyone in the family made mistakes, just help Grandpa this time, go apologize, and get her back, okay?"
Mr. Mu had a look of concern.
If the marriage truly falls through, Laoda might be in danger.
"Grandpa, before this happened, you didn’t consider Bita your granddaughter-in-law, you let my grandma and mom bully her away.
Now you want me to go, what will others think of me, Da Lang? I’ve decided to listen to my mom and not marry Bita."
"No, you must marry Miss Huang!" Mr. Mu said excitedly, his words almost a shout.
After speaking, he continued.
"Grandpa didn’t mean it badly, Grandpa’s point is, we chose Miss Huang as our granddaughter-in-law, besides her, no one else suits."
Mr. Mu’s explanation was awkward at best, if Da Lang hadn’t known the real reason for Mr. Mu’s actions earlier, he might have foolishly thought his grandpa genuinely had his best interest at heart.
He could swear, no matter who she was, what she looked like, what kind of person, as long as she could help his uncle, Grandpa would force him to marry.
Grandpa only cared about the main house’s family.
"Grandpa, since you and Grandma think she’s good, why not treat her brothers kindly? Since you think she’s good, why not have my mom accept Bita? It’s not that Da Lang doesn’t want to help here.
But Da Lang doesn’t want to see a good wife come in only to be chased away by my mom. If you can’t solve this, I won’t marry in my lifetime."
Da Lang spoke with determination, if he didn’t win this time, Huang Bita in Old Mu Family would basically have no status.
There would definitely be places where things would go wrong.
Mr. Mu was both angry and anxious.
"Let me discuss with your Grandma, and you reconsider!"
Mr. Mu returned to the Old Mu Family and furiously scolded Old Mrs. Mu.
Old Mrs. Mu had also been scared all night, deep down, if anyone in this home were to face trouble, it shouldn’t be; if Laoda had problems, the other house branches wouldn’t compare to Laoda alone.
"It’s all because of you, a crazy woman, trying to save a little on food, now look, it’s turned out like this, what do you say we should do?" Mr. Mu asked.
"What can be done? We can only have the second daughter-in-law handle it, she’s the mother-in-law, all I did was offend the Huang Brothers, the second daughter-in-law was the one who insulted Miss Huang."
Old Mrs. Mu cleanly shifted the blame.
"You know the second daughter-in-law well, she’s all talk and unreliable, she already despises Miss Huang’s family situation, just hoping the marriage falls through."
"Hmph, if I, the old lady, didn’t agree, what right does she have to decide? Just wait, I will go teach the second daughter-in-law a lesson and make her smarten up!"
