Chapter 1282: Tan Shuangshuang Came Knocking II
Old Master Mu felt relieved hearing Feng Ruqing say so. He did not say more and just left.
When he had just walked out the room door, the old housekeeper had already come forward to meet him.
“Master, Tan Shuangshuang is here.”
“What is she here for?”
Old Master Mu’s face darkened slightly.
He had never liked Tan Shuangshuang. He felt that she was a little fake, just like another Chen Qingyan.
However, she had indeed given birth to a child for Mu Ling. He was also too lazy to say too much.
However, a few days ago, Tan Shuangshuang had ran away when she saw that things were not looking good for the Mu family when Qin Li brought people over to find fault with the Mu family.
If she had just ran away, that was fine. However, she had left behind her child who had just reached a full year. To say it nicely, she would not be able to support this child after she leaves and thus left him to the Mu family.
If that was just that case, then fine. However, before Tan Shuangshuang sneakily ran away, taking advantage of the Mu family’s people trying to deal with Qin Li and not being free to care about other matters, she had actually stolen the Mu family’s silver and spirit herbs!
Now… she actually dared to come back knocking?
The corner of Old Master Mu’s lips curled up into a sneer as he said sarcastically. “Mu Ling has already been chased out by me. What more a Tan Shuangshuang? Make her get lost. Our Mu family only needs Suyi.”
All these sons were so worrying, not even comparable to Suyi alone.
“However…” the old housekeeper hesitated for a second. “Tan Shuangshuang is crying and kicking a fuss outside. Would that not be a little not good? Why not… we secretly get rid of her and prevent her from causing a ruckus outside.”
Old Master Mu’s expression turned even uglier.
He really could not understand Mu Ling. Was Suyi alone not sufficient?
See the two concubines he brought back, which of them were easy to handle? All of them did not wish for his Mu family’s harmony.
“Let’s go. Bring me to see this Tan Shuangshuang.”
Ever since Old Master Mu was clear headed, he had always stayed in the courtyard and rarely came out. He had never interacted with Tan Shuangshuang. Today, he wanted to see how bad Mu Ling’s judgment was.
In reality, Chen Qingyan’s matters could be blamed on Mu Ling, but regarding Tan Shuangshuang…
Mu Ling was more innocent than anyone else.
After all, he had never liked Tan Shuangshuang. If it were not because Suyi had poisoned him, he would not have had any relations with her, and not mention bringing her back to the Mu family…
Outside the Mu residence, a group of people had started to gather.
Standing outside the door was a maiden who was crying miserably.
Her face looked sad and her eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with tears. Her pale face was very pity inducing.
Just like a blooming white lotus. Pure… and fake.
“Old Master Mu.”
When she saw Old Master Mu walk out, Tan Shuangshuang’s knees had slowly bent, knocking into the ground heavily as she wept silently.
Old Master Mu looked down at the maiden who was kneeling before him as his face remained cold and indifferent. His emotions were not the least affected.
“Old Master Mu, I know that the young master had done wrong. You chased him out of the Mu family, but… I had given birth to a child for the Mu family. My child cannot be motherless from young. I beg you, don’t chase me away.”
Old Master Mu sneered. “Back then, was it not you yourself who snuck away? Oh, and even stole my Mu family’s things.”
If it were not that everyone in the Mu family were trying to find a strategy to deal with the situation, and that even Elder Zhang at the spirit herb storage was also the same, how could she have successfully stolen from them?
The people who had originally sympathized with Tan Shuangshuang were stunned when they heard Old Master Mu’s words.
Stolen the Mu family’s things?
Was that not… thievery?
This maiden looked quite beautiful and was so pitiful. How come it turns out that she was a thief?
