Chapter 241 The old man suddenly supports Lin Xige
"Wife, you've seen Grandpa. That's my dad, and that's my dad's wife. Just follow me and call her Aunt Sun."
Lin Xige was a little at a loss, but still calm. She nodded and called out obediently, "Grandpa."
Looking at Father Mu and Mrs. Mu again, she was stunned for a moment.
What should I call Father Mu?
Father Mu also noticed her hesitation and waved his hand: "As a family, we don't need to pay so much attention to etiquette. It was the old man who insisted on coming to see you, so we accompanied him. He is not in good health and will go to the hospital for an infusion later."
Then, Father Mu looked at Old Man Mu and said, "Dad, why do you have to come to Yu Garden?"
There was some dissatisfaction and impatience in his tone.
The relationship between father and son is not harmonious and they only see each other a few times a year.
Father Mu and his wife spend their days on vacation doing nothing. Since the company and family business have been handed over to their third son, they live a comfortable life without any worries.
In addition, the third son has a bad relationship with the eldest and second sons, and his wife Sun Yuan is trying to persuade him to gain some status and property for her own biological sons. Mu's father is caught in the middle and is in a dilemma.
Therefore, he tried his best to avoid meeting Mu Chaoran.
Mu Chaoran is a very opinionated person. He does not listen to his father and holds all the power. His father has no status or authority in front of Mu Chaoran.
"You have a daughter-in-law, and I have a granddaughter-in-law, so why don't you come to see them?" Old Master Mu replied, "Such a big thing happened at home, and you don't ask about it?"
"What happened..."
Father Mu looked confused.
Before Mr. Mu could say anything, Sun Yuan suddenly started sobbing, and her soft sobs were particularly clear.
"Why are you crying?" Father Mu was even more confused and looked at Sun Yuan, "Do you know something happened?"
Sun Yuan sniffed, "Master, I don't know the details, because Ah Heng and Ah Yi refused to tell us. One of them is about to be discharged from the hospital, having just recovered from his injuries. The other has just been admitted to the hospital, and I don't know how long he will stay there."
"Ah? Injured? How did you get hurt? Did you get drunk or fight outside, or something?"
Sun Yuan glanced at Mu Chaoran and said, "You have to ask him."
Father Mu also looked at Mu Chaoran.
Mu Chaoran answered frankly: "I did it."
"You..." Father Mu frowned, "You are having a hard time with your two brothers? And you even injured them so badly that they had to go to the hospital?"
"That's what they deserve."
Lin Xige also learned about the current situation of Mu Heng and Mu Yi.
She had met Mu Yi once in Su City, and also saw how Mu Chaoran punished him.
Mu Heng...
Was it because he ran up to her and spoke too much, telling her the truth about Lin Xige's life experience first, which angered Mu Chaoran and then he was punished?
Sun Yuan's sobbing became louder and louder. "Chao Ran, I have never treated you unfairly over the years, nor have I done anything wrong to you. You are capable and talented, and I am happy for you to be the master of the Mu family. My two sons are useless, but in the final analysis, you are brothers and a family. Why do you have to kill each other?"
"As the saying goes, a harmonious family brings prosperity. The old man often told you three brothers to be united and harmonious...but what did you do? You scared them so much that they dared not say a word. They trembled just by hearing your name."
This made Sun Yuan very angry.
It doesn't matter if my son is a loser, as long as he is a rich and leisurely young man, living a safe and healthy life, he can still live like this.
But Mu Chaoran went too far!
When Sun Yuan saw how injured her two sons were, she couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
She had no other choice. She couldn't just scold Mu Chaoran.
So, after much thought, Sun Yuan decided that this was the only time to make things clear, as the whole family was present.
Mr. Mu frowned: "Chao Ran, what's going on?"
After he was hospitalized, he focused on recuperating and had no idea what happened between his three grandsons.
He only knew a little about Lin Xige's life experience, and vaguely heard that the Lin family had been to the Imperial Garden.
Therefore, Mr. Mu came in person to inquire, bringing Mu's father and Sun Yuan with him to show his respect and recognition for Lin Xige.
But the old man only learned about Mu Heng and Mu Yi's situation from what Sun Yuan told him.
"Grandpa, you don't know either?" Sun Yuan wiped her tears. "I thought you asked my husband and me to come here so that we could have a good talk about the grievances between the three brothers."
"No, I asked you to come and meet my daughter-in-law. But Chao Ran's behavior is really wrong."
Faced with Sun Yuan's crying, Mu's father's dissatisfaction, and Grandpa Mu's questioning, Mu Chaoran looked indifferent and had no intention of explaining.
He said coldly: "My two brothers have violated my bottom line. This is their own fault."
"Bottom line?" Father Mu asked, "What is your bottom line? How did you violate it?"
Mu Chaoran just turned his head slightly and his eyes fell on Lin Xige.
Mu Heng and Mu Yi had touched her and were targeting her, so naturally he would not show any mercy.
He had tolerated the two of them enough in the past, and this time, he would settle both the new and old grudges together.
Mu's father and Sun Yuan didn't understand Mu Chaoran's look.
Mr. Mu understood.
"What did these two bastards do to Xige?" Old Master Mu scolded heavily, "What evil ideas have you come up with now?"
Then, Mr. Mu also looked at Lin Xige: "Granddaughter-in-law, don't worry, I will give you an explanation and won't let you suffer any injustice."
Sun Yuan was stunned.
Why did the old man suddenly support Lin Xige?
The granddaughter-in-law has such a big reputation, but can it be compared to the weight of two grandsons?
"It's all in the past," Lin Xige replied softly, "I don't want to mention it again."
Mr. Mu nodded: "Well, I came here today to say sorry to you. I treated you like that before, and I was not considerate enough."
Not only was Sun Yuan dumbfounded, even Mu's father was stunned.
Did he hear it correctly?
Is the old man apologizing to his grandson's wife?
Does Lin Xige have such a big face?
Lin Xige pursed her lips and wanted to laugh, but she felt that in this world... everyone treats people differently based on their status.
When she was the daughter of Li Fang from Su City, Mr. Mu's attitude towards her was condescending and dismissive.
Now that she is the daughter of the Lin family, Mr. Mu can put aside his status and seniority and apologize to her.
Sure enough, people’s status will be different and their treatment will also be different.
The Mu family is so snobbish.
Mr. Mu continued, "When I first went to Su City to look for you, I didn't know your true identity, so my words and attitude were not very nice. I hope you don't mind. Of course, this is also Chao Ran's fault."
Old Master Mu glared at Mu Chaoran and said, "He didn't tell me such a big thing. He kept it a secret. Even when I asked him, he refused to reveal a single word. He kept saying something..."
