âActed with propriety?â Qiao Mu ruminated over these words cynically. âNanny wouldnât have forgetten that Mu Rouxuan, this eldest young lady, is several months older than me, right?â
If she knew her place, how would Mu Rouxuan be born before her?
...
This Mu Qingya must have illegitimately gotten together with Mu Jingfeng behind her motherâs back!
Chenshang was taken aback. She promptly held Qiao Muâs hand and explained, âLittle Young Lady, I also know a bit about this matter. It truly canât be blamed on Qingya.â
âShe was the Mu Clanâs adopted daughter from young. Unable to activate her mystic meridians, she had no cultivation, so she had very difficult time in the Mu Clan. She looks meek, but fortunately she is a resolute and steadfast woman. Normally, no one can take advantage of her.â
âShe is a very determined person. After your dad married your mom, she swiftly cut the Gordian knot and no longer got involved with your dad. If not because your dad that scoundrel provoked his enemy, he wouldnât have gotten drugged and barged into Qingyaâs courtyard, r*ping her and ruining her reputation for life.â
âShe hasnât had it easy these past years either. She has worked extremely hard on the Mu Clanâs behalf for so many years, conscientiously managing your dadâs shops, manors, etc., and even supporting your dadâs concubines! If it were your mom, she would have long refused to do so.â
Qiao Mu snorted coldly.
Chenshang continued, âLittle Young Lady, this old servant doesnât want to badmouth your dad, but I feel that your cowardly dad is most likely the one who sent Shuntian Prefectureâs men after your mom!â
âHe is an extremely conceited person. Since your mom dared to directly leave the Mu Clan and make him lose face, he definitely harbored hatred, so he thought up a plan to eliminate your mom!â
Qiao Mu silently analyzed Chenshangâs words in her mind. She felt that what she said made some sense.
It was possible that her dad really was the one who did it.
If her dad just casually tossed down several talismans or several bottles of supreme-grade pills, there would be plenty of people vying to handle affairs on his behalf, no?
âI understand.â Qiao Mu concluded, âWhether it is the matter with the Long Clan, Mu Qingya or Mu Jingfeng, I will thoroughly investigate it all.â
Chenshang looked at Qiao Mu with a gratified nod. She said, âIf my lady is looking down from above, she will definitely be happy.â
Qiao Mu couldnât help but smile bitterly when she heard this. âMother wouldnât be too happy.â
After all, her motherâs original wish was for her not to meddle in these matters. She just wanted her to live a peaceful and comfortable life.
However, she did interfere in the end.
Qiao Mu looked at Chenshang profoundly. âNanny, is the Wangchuan Seaâs Long Clan you speak of that clan I am thinking of?â
Chenshang was startled. She met Qiao Muâs gaze and then said with a smile, âLittle Young Lady already knows in her heart, is that not so?â
Qiao Mu sighed. She felt like a lot of her suspicions had cleared up.
It turned out that she actually had such a special bloodline. It truly was miraculous. No wonder every time she entered water, she felt like she could breathe freely, just like⊠a fish in water.
When she remembered that last instruction when Long Chuyun accepted her as her disciple, she couldnât help but suddenly feel enlightened.
Qiao Mu shook her head with emotion. She looked to Chenshang and said softly, âNanny, come stay with me in Magnolia Court.â
Chenshangâs wrinkled face revealed a deep smile. âThis old servant is willing to follow the little young lady, and will not hesitate to go through fire and tread on fire.â
Who wants you to go through fire and tread on fire, Qiao Mu thought.
She wanted her to take good care of herself!
