After marrying an officer, she was spoiled by the group

Chapter 709 Unhappy Lu Beichen

"You're welcome. It's not worth much money." Fu Ling said, not wanting the old lady to have too much burden.

She had looked up the old lady's life story, which was extremely miserable.

When she was six years old, ugly spots began to grow on her face. At first, they were only in a small area, but later they became more and more. The ancients were feudal and superstitious and believed that those spots would bring misfortune to people.

In addition, family misfortunes occurred one after another, and his parents died one after another, which indirectly confirmed the rumors.

When she was fifteen, her mother passed away, which was the beginning of her tragic life.

Her brothers disliked her for not being able to get married and for bringing misfortune to the family, so her mother cruelly kicked her out of the house before the seventh day of her death and gave her nothing.

In order to survive, they had no choice but to become slaves and low-level servants, and this lasted for decades.

Now she is in her fifties and still unmarried.

The time lost could not be made up, so Fu Ling could only try his best to make her feel warm in the Lu Mansion.

Since Lu Beichen was not at home, she moved a recliner and sat under the big tree to enjoy the cool air.

There was a slight cool breeze and it didn't feel hot.

It is very pleasant to eat fruit while enjoying the beautiful scenery in the courtyard.

Just then, she heard footsteps in the distance, coming towards her direction.

Looking towards the gate of the courtyard, the person who came was none other than Lu Beichen, who went with Hong Gu to propose marriage.

Fu Ling sat up straight and asked with a smile, "Why are you back so early?"

"I missed you and came back."

"Oh? You didn't stay for dinner?"

"I don't want to stay."

Seeing him frown, Fu Ling thought something had changed again, so he put away his smile and asked, "What's wrong? Did Mr. Mu give you guys a hard time?"

Lu Beichen shook his head, came to sit next to Fu Ling, and habitually picked up the cut apple and handed it to Fu Ling's mouth.

"Mr. Mu was very kind to Master and didn't make things difficult for him."

Chewing an apple, he asked, "If that's the case, why do you have that expression?"

Fu Ling was full of confusion. This shouldn't be the case. Since Mr. Mu didn't make things difficult for him, the matter was considered a success. But he seemed very unhappy.

"Did you meet someone you don't like?" This is the only possibility, otherwise he wouldn't come back so early.

This time Lu Beichen nodded: "Yeah, it really makes me speechless."

"Tell me about it." Fu Ling sat and waited for the opportunity to eat melon.

Everything was normal when I first arrived at the Mu family. I went to meet the old man of the Mu family first. The gifts I brought with me to propose marriage were generous, so I didn't lose face.

As a result, she met the eldest granddaughter of the second branch of the Mu family, and she fell in love with Lu Beichen at first sight.

I am spoiled by my elders at home and I want to own anything I like.

Oh no, it turns out someone is after her man.

"go on."

He didn't rush to speak. He looked at Fu Ling's expression, made sure there was no change, and then continued.

Old Master Mu was entertaining guests when Mu Jinqiu came uninvited, and she didn't even shy away from even seeing a man from outside the family present.

This really made Master Mu very angry. He had no tact at all. It would have been fine if the second son's family had indulged him normally, but now he actually came to him to embarrass himself. If there were no outsiders around, he would have had to teach him a lesson. He had almost spoiled him to the point of being lawless.

Especially Mu Jinqiu's eyes, they never left Lu Beichen from beginning to end.

Anyone with eyes could see it, and how could he, a seasoned veteran of the business world, not see it? His face suddenly darkened, and he rudely shouted, "Can't you see there are customers here? Get out!"

"Grandpa, Jinqiu missed you so much today that I thought of coming to see you."

"Now that you have seen it, go back first. I have guests here." Master Mu ordered the guests to leave.

The inconsiderate person didn't even notice that she was always stealing glances at Lu Beichen intentionally or unintentionally.

Lu Beichen frowned slightly. That gaze was too intense, and he could feel it even if he didn't look.

"Mu Jinqiu!" Master Mu raised his voice.

Mu Jinqiu then turned his gaze away from Lu Beichen and looked at Master Mu, only then did he notice something was wrong.

"Didn't you hear what I said? Go back quickly." His words showed his extreme displeasure.

Now she understood, but she didn't want to leave.

Then she suddenly had an idea and said, "Grandpa, please let Jinqiu stay. I'll serve tea and water to you and the guests."

"No need!" Master Mu refused directly, leaving her no chance at all.

"Leave quickly, we have something important to discuss!"

Usually, Master Mu is quite tolerant towards the younger generation, but the prerequisite is not to make him angry. After all, he is the one who has the final say in the family. If you really make him angry, no one will be in trouble.

Seeing that her grandfather was really angry, she didn't dare to stay any longer. She could only look at Lu Beichen reluctantly before reluctantly preparing to leave.

"Grandpa, Jinqiu will come to see you later."

It was not until Mu Jinqiu left that Master Mu breathed a sigh of relief. What a disgrace! He felt that he had lost all face because of her. Fortunately, she was not his own granddaughter, otherwise he would have to give her a good beating.

She was not convinced after being humiliated by Master Mu, so she went to Master Mu II with a sense of grievance and asked her grandfather to help her find a way. In addition to getting the other party's information, she also wanted the other party to marry into their family.

Mu Jinqiu has always had a high opinion of herself. She looks down on ordinary young men from wealthy families. Now that she has met someone she likes, she naturally will not refuse him.

Mu Jinqiu had just left, and now the second master Mu came, which made the first master Mu very angry.

This isn't going to end today, is it?! My second brother is a man who never gets up early unless there's something to gain. It's easy to imagine why he's here.

As expected, he set his sights on Lu Beichen as soon as he arrived.

The target is so obvious that you can tell who it is at a glance.

Master Mu Er was used to playing dumb. He walked up to Lu Beichen and began to look him over carefully, as if he was about to become his grandson-in-law, and then began to check his household registration.

Lu Beichen took his master's face into consideration, and although he was unhappy, he had to respond.

He vaguely sensed something was amiss, so he brought up Fu Ling right from the start: "At home, there are my parents, my master, and my newlywed wife."

Regardless of whether there were outsiders present, Second Master Mu immediately began to offer benefits to tempt Lu Beichen: "You have such good appearances, why are you so hasty to get married? Why don't you divorce your current wife? I will introduce you to a marriage and guarantee you a life of wealth and glory."

This made Master Mu very angry. He blew his beard and glared, but the second son didn't see it.

At this moment, Hong Gu was also very unhappy and almost on the verge of losing his temper.

Didn't he understand what kind of person Lu Beichen was? He didn't lose his temper immediately because he was giving him face, in order to save the Mu family's reputation.

Hong Gu explained for Lu Beichen with a forced smile, "Thank you, Master Mu Er, for your kindness."
