The Doctor's Concubine: Don't mess with the evil princess

Chapter 9 Madam Mu

Looking at the figure disappearing before her eyes, Hong Yin was full of questions.

Isn't this the man I rescued that day in the suburbs of Beijing? How did he appear in Mu's house? And in her daughter's room?

Hongyin knows her girl's temper best. If she wants to say something, she will say it without being asked. If she doesn't want to say it, it's useless to ask.

"Go to sleep!" Mu Lanfeng yawned again, feeling extremely sleepy.

After tossing and turning all night, everything finally calmed down and Mu Lanfeng soon fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, just after daybreak, Mu Lanfeng was urged to get up because he had to pay his respects to the old lady today.

This was the first time that Mu Lanfeng met Old Madam Mu as a granddaughter.

In the Wutong Courtyard, there was an old woman with gray hair in the warm room. She was dressed simply, with rosary beads on her hands. Her face was not rosy and she looked a little sick.

The breakfast on the table was barely touched, and Mama Li, who was serving, asked the maid to come and clean it up.

At this time, a little maid ran over to report: "Madam, the fifth lady is here!"

Madam Mu's face was filled with joy. She stood up, waved, and said excitedly, "Quick, let her in!"

"Yes!" Seeing this, the little maidservants immediately ran out excitedly.

A moment later, Mu Lanfeng entered the warm room and immediately bowed to Madam Mu when he saw her. "Lanfeng greets Grandmother!"

Madam Mu's face was full of smiles, but tears were in her eyes. She quickly waved her hand to signal Mu Lanfeng to come to her, "Come here quickly, let grandma take a good look at you. It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back..."

Mu Lanfeng walked forward, walked to the side of Madam Mu, bent down and leaned beside Madam Mu's legs, held the old lady's shriveled hands with both hands, and said softly: "Grandma's intentions, Lanfeng understands, Lanfeng is fine!"

Madam Mu looked at the thin Mu Lanfeng in front of her, touched her head distressedly, and said with guilt: "You are as thin as a monkey. It's all my fault that I am incompetent and can't stop Jiang..."

Almost with a choking sob, Madam Mu lowered her head and wiped her tears, and continued: "But now that you are back, I will protect you even if it costs my life!"

Mu Lanfeng was still young at that time and her memory of the old lady was very vague. She was the only person who brought her warmth after her mother passed away. After she went to Tianyuan Manor to recuperate, she never saw her again.

She knew the old lady's difficulties of having the will but not the ability. Ever since Mu Xun married Jiang, she had become less and less fond of her as a mother. Her own position was in jeopardy, so in the original owner's memory, she did not have any resentment towards the old lady.

She only remembered how good the old lady was to her. When the old lady was critically ill, she returned without hesitation to treat her.

Mu Lanfeng couldn't stand the crying scene in front of her. She carefully helped Madam Mu wipe away her tears and said with a smile: "Grandma, Lanfeng is grown up now. Lanfeng will protect herself and won't let others bully grandma!"

"Okay, okay!" Madam Mu smiled with satisfaction.

"Will grandma's headache recur again?" Mu Lanfeng deliberately changed the subject. After all, this kind of traumatic scene was not suitable for her.

"After taking the miracle doctor's medicine, I haven't had an attack for some days, and I feel a lot more relaxed!" When the old lady mentioned the miracle doctor, she praised him to everyone she met.

Hong Yin on the side glanced at Mu Lanfeng and smiled.

Mu Lanfeng glared at her and signaled her not to reveal the secret.

Hongyin's scalp numbed from being glared at, and she lowered her head, not daring to look again.

The old lady looked at the two's actions and began to wonder, "What's wrong with this master and servant? It's like they are hiding something from me!"

At this time, Mother Li walked up to Madam Mu and whispered, "Madam is here."

When Jiang was mentioned, Madam Mu's face suddenly changed, and she said unhappily, "We are talking to each other in private, what is she doing here?"

Old Madam Mu disliked Jiang and could not stand her smiling face with a dagger hidden inside. She knew that she had bad intentions but had to be perfunctory, so she simply exempted her from the daily greetings.

Mu Lanfeng knew in her heart that Jiang probably knew that she had come to the old lady's place and deliberately brought people to cause trouble.

As they were talking, Jiang had already arrived at the door, followed by her sisters headed by Mu Baiying, and a group of maids and old women. It was a huge crowd and a grand formation.

Jiang was lightly made up, her face was pale, her eyes could not hide her fatigue, and she looked frail and sick. She walked in front of Madam Mu and bowed respectfully. The sisters followed suit. Jiang smiled and said, "Your daughter-in-law has brought your granddaughters to pay respects to mother!"

She turned around and motioned to Mrs. Wang beside her to bring some tea. She handed the tea to the old lady and whispered, "Mother, have some tea!"

He never looked at Mu Lanfeng directly during the whole process.

Mother Li took Jiang's tea and brought it to Old Madam Mu. Old Madam Mu took the tea, took a sip, forced a smile on her face, and said perfunctorily: "Thank you for your kindness. Everyone, get up!"

Everyone stood up and found a seat. Jiang sat in the seat closest to the old lady. At this time, she glanced at Mu Lanfeng and pretended to be kind and asked, "Why didn't Lanfeng wait for mother and sisters to come together? Why did you come first?"

"You little bitch, you must have come to grandma to complain again!" Without waiting for Mu Lanfeng to speak, Mu Hongliao, who had just gotten up from her seat, cursed angrily.

"Shut up! You bastard, she is your sister!" Old Madam Mu was furious and shouted loudly.

"Mother, please calm down. Hongliao is still young and doesn't understand things!" Jiang glared at Mu Hongliao and quickly apologized with a smile.

"Is this the child you taught?" Old Madam Mu snorted coldly. Just when she was worrying about not finding a reason to send her away, someone suddenly walked into her trap.

Jiang's face turned red and white, and she was a little embarrassed. She tried to calm herself down and said with a smile, "Mother, please calm down. It's all because of your poor parenting. I will definitely discipline you well!"

She is really good at causing trouble instead of helping others. Jiang glared at Mu Hongliao fiercely again, wishing she could skin her alive.

But Mu Hongliao didn't know how to read the expression at all. She wanted to help Jiang Shi out and said quickly, "Grandma, you wronged mother. Look how well mother taught my elder sister."

As he spoke, he glanced at Mu Baiying beside him and said, "Don't you think so, big sister?"

Mu Baiying smiled awkwardly and agreed with her a little, wishing she could kick her out.

"Hmph~ You teach your own children well, but let other people's children do whatever they want!" Old Madam Mu snorted coldly and looked at Jiang expressionlessly.

Jiang was now in a state of panic, and although she had a smile on her face, it was uglier than crying. "Mother, I think Hong Liao is still young, and she can learn the rules slowly!"

Madam Mu had a cold face and said impatiently: "Okay, An has invited you, and I am tired. Let's go back! Lan Feng stay and accompany me!"

"Grandma..." Mu Baiying wanted to say a few words to defend her mother, but was stopped by Jiang.

Everyone bowed and saluted, then left Wutong Garden one by one.
