Mu Mu smiled and said, “Grandfather Zhong, fortunately, you understand the situation. The Chen siblings are from the same hometown as my aunt. They grew up together. Now that they’ve moved to the capital, it’s natural that she takes an interest in them.”
“Yuan Yuan was injured and cannot be over-excited. They only settled Yuan Yuan at the Chen house after obtaining Uncle Zhong’s consent. I hope that Aunty will be clear about this point in the future and not malign others for no reason. My aunt is a gentle and kind person. But my Uncle is not so easy to deal with.”
Old Master Zhong and Zhong Guangping’s expressions changed. Zhong Guangping said, “Aunty just misses Yuan Yuan too much, so she’s always suspicious of others. Over the past few years, Yuan Yuan’s incident has caused her to imagine things. Don’t worry, I will take good care of her.
“Now that Yuan Yuan has been found, she will naturally stop acting this way. If not for Mrs Mo, I don’t know what would have happened to Yuan Yuan when she was injured the last time!”
Mu Mu smiled and said, “That’s great!”
Zheng Lin wanted to say something, but Old Master Zhong glared at her, and she did not dare to speak.
Of course, her family was delighted that Zhong Bingyuan was back. When the Zhong family heard the news, they all came back. Zhong Guangping had an older brother, a younger brother, and a younger sister. They were all married with children.
His older brother had two sons while his younger brother had one. His younger sister also had two sons.
Zhong Bingyuan was the only young girl in the entire family. It was natural that they doted on her.
Zhong Bingyuan did not recognize her surroundings. When she saw her relatives, she felt that they were somewhat familiar, just that she could not remember who they were.
Mu Mu remained at the Zhong house for lunch.
When Zhong Bingyuan was young, she had lived in the Zhong house for a long time. Her father Zhong Guangping’s job was uncertain, and he was often transferred from place to place. Zhong Bingyuan was still young at that time, so she simply lived in the capital.
So when Zhong Bingyuan first met Chen Qingqing after she was kidnapped, she said that her home was in the capital.
At that time, she was just staying with her parents for a while. She mostly lived in the capital. With her father’s uncertain job, she was worried that he would be transferred away.
The Zhong family had preserved Zhong Bingyuan’s room.
When Zhong Bingyuan went to look at her room, Zheng Lin wanted to spend some time alone with her. But Zhong Bingyuan disliked her and insisted that Mu Mu accompany her.
When Mu Mu saw her room, which was fit for a princess, he began to understand Zhong Bingyuan’s status in the Zhong family.
In the room, Zheng Lin prattled to Zhong Bingyuan about how pretty the curtains were, where she had bought them, and how much they cost; where the dressing table was bought and how much it cost; and all the new clothes and shoes in the closet that had been bought recently…
Zhong Bingyuan felt rather embarra.s.sed as she listened…
Fortunately, everyone returned soon. Mu Mu could tell that the Zhong family truly doted on Zhong Bingyuan. In his opinion, besides Zheng Lin, the others seemed quite normal.
The two daughters-in-law of the Zhong family were fine ladies. They were elegant, well brought up, and spoke well. He could tell that they came from good families.
It was lunchtime, and everyone sat down to eat.
There were many dishes that Zhong Bingyuan had liked in the past. Zhong Bingyuan had been living in the countryside with Chen Qingqing and Chen Feng for so long, and her tastes had changed significantly.
She was growing, and she preferred heavily seasoned food and especially liked meat.
Zheng Lin kept frowning as she saw what Zhong Bingyuan was eating.
“Yuan Yuan, you mustn’t eat such spicy things. Girls should eat plainer food, or it will affect your skin. You’re a young girl.. You must take care of your complexion.”
