The Miracle Doctor's Wife is Not a Weak Lady!-Chapter 7
Mother’s Displeasure
Mu Ci did not have a particularly exceptional sense of hearing, but because those people did not avoid them or speak softly, every word fell into his ears.
His expression turned ugly, and his aura involuntarily turned cold. His cold gaze swept across the group of onlookers. 𝙛𝓇𝘦e𝙬𝑒𝚋𝒏૦ѵel. c𝒐𝚖
Bei Shuo pushed the wheelchair out with her head held high. She raised her voice and said sweetly, “Brother Mu Ci, where are we going to celebrate our marriage?”
Mu Ci’s heart warmed, and his expression softened. He patted Bei Shuo’s hand as she pushed the wheelchair. “Let’s go home!”
Butler Liu quickly walked up to him. “Young Master, the old master wants you to bring Young Madam back to the old residence.”
Mu Ci frowned and said, “Alright, let’s go back to the old residence.”
After the group of people got into the car and left, the atmosphere at the hall of the Civil Affairs Bureau finally seemed to have thawed.
“Which family is the girl from? Which family managed to marry their daughter into the Mu family? Isn’t this a little too fast? She registered her marriage without any news.”
“That’s right, that’s right! I just heard the Mu family’s butler call her ‘Young Madam’. She’s officially married and is going back to the old residence! I didn’t realize Old Master Mu had already picked a girl!”
“I don’t know either! I only heard that Old Master Mu was looking for a suitable candidate and all interested parties were welcome to send their daughters’ eight characters to the Mu family, but that was it. I heard that no one sent any eight characters! Although the Mu family is a top tycoon, no one would do this to their daughters!”
“Sigh, don’t worry too much. There will definitely be brave men out there considering the rewards. I heard that the Bei family handed over their daughter’s eight characters. The Bei family’s investment failed and they’re about to go bankrupt. Now, their lives are in the hands of the Mu family. They are naturally happy to send their daughter to marry into the Mu family, right?”
“Impossible. Bei Le is the favorite in the family! Besides, didn’t Bei Le already get engaged with the Gu family’s eldest young master?”
“Just look at you. You’re so ignorant. Bei Le isn’t the real eldest daughter of the Bei family. She’s just a foster daughter. The real eldest daughter was found slightly over a month ago! However, she grew up in the countryside and is not presentable, so the family didn’t announce it to the public. Considering her farmer upbringing, it would be a genuinely sweet deal for them to marry her into the Mu family, right?”
There was really no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world and keeping secrets.
Before Mu Ci and Bei Shuo arrived at the Mu family’s old residence, Bei Shuo’s background report was already delivered to Old Master Mu and Madam Mu.
Madam Mu, Duan Si, rushed into the old man’s study with a pale face. “Dad, how could you agree to let such a country girl marry Mu Ci? He’s your most beloved grandson!”
Mu Chen looked up at his daughter-in-law, took off his reading glasses, and slowly asked, “Then tell me, what kind of person do you want to find for Mu Ci? Would you prefer someone like Song Nan?”
Duan Si was stunned for a moment and did not say anything.
Mu Chen snorted. “You watched Song Nan grow up. Back then, her parents entrusted her to you, and you treated her like your own daughter. However, Mu Ci’s health isn’t good, and you were afraid that he wouldn’t have long to live. You were afraid that Song Nan would suffer from marrying into the family. Now that I’ve found him a wife, you have nothing but disdain for her background!”
Duan Si could not help but say, “No matter what, Mu Ci is the eldest son of the family. How could we find someone from the Bei family to marry him? After all, their family is on the decline. The girl wasn’t even raised by them. Instead, she’s just some girl from the countryside. Dad, this is simply too much!”
With her high-society upbringing, she could not say anything worse.
Mu Chen sighed softly. “Liu Ming called me and said that they were originally going to the Bei family to break off the engagement. Mu Ci is a kind man, so he would never want to implicate a girl. When they arrived at the Bei family, he took a look at Miss Bei and changed his mind. He directly pulled her to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register. You’re Mu Ci’s biological mother, so you know your son’s condition very well. Can you bear to stop him? If he really likes the girl, does her upbringing really matter?”
Duan Si stopped talking. Tears slowly welled up in her eyes.
“I naturally know counteracting bad luck is pure superstition. Even if there’s a one in a million chance or a one in a hundred thousand chance, I’m still willing to try anything for my grandson!” Mu Chen could not help but emphasize.
“Dad, don’t say anymore. Just stop it. As long as Mu Ci is happy, I’ll accept her. I won’t pick on her.” Duan Si could not help but cover her face and cry.
