From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!-Chapter 935 - 931

"What nonsense are you spewing? How did our Xiangxiang become a bane to her husband? She has nothing to do with that brute from the Qin Family! If you dare speak recklessly again, I’ll tear your mouth apart."

Old Mrs. Mu rushed forward, dragged out the person insulting Mu Xiangxiang, and pointed at them, yelling.

The person refused to concede, insisting that Mu Xiangxiang was crazy.

"You’re the crazy one, damn it! Our Xiangxiang isn’t crazy, isn’t crazy..."

At that moment, Old Mrs. Mu looked like a genuine mother.

But her defense only worked for Mu Xiangxiang and Mu Dade; the others couldn’t enjoy it.

Mr. Mu’s darkened face became even more ominous amidst Old Mrs. Mu’s repeated assertions that Mu Xiangxiang wasn’t crazy.

He took a step forward, grabbing Old Mrs. Mu and started walking towards the inner courtyard: "Enough, don’t go mad again. Aren’t you ashamed enough?"

Old Mrs. Mu, full of rage, shook off Mr. Mu’s reaching hand.

A big fight was about to break out.

Mu Dalang couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted, "Grandfather, Grandmother, look, all these folks are here for our family drama. If you have any issues, can you please resolve them inside our house?"

"Is it your place to speak? I haven’t even settled accounts with you for bringing a brat here to watch the show.

I’m telling you, this isn’t over! My daughter Xiangxiang will never marry that ugly thing Sun Dali!"

As if demonstrating, Old Mrs. Mu glared at Mu Dalang and Huang Bitao with her fierce eyes, making them tremble all over.

Mu Shuangshuang stood nearby, ignoring what Old Mrs. Mu said.

Matchmaker Sun was still startled by Mu Shuangshuang’s previous look and hadn’t recovered.

Everyone in the courtyard was at a standoff, unwilling to leave. The spectators outside were like nailed pegs, motionless but with eyes fixed on the Old Mu Family.

This drama could only be so extravagant with the Old Mu Family.

After a long while, Matchmaker Sun suddenly spoke up, "Alright, alright, I’ll tell my nephew that we aren’t worthy of the Old Mu Family.

From now on, I, Matchmaker Sun, won’t meddle in the Old Mu Family’s marriage affairs. Please find someone else more capable."

It wasn’t the first time Matchmaker Sun declared she wouldn’t interfere with the Old Mu Family’s marriage affairs.

But it was always said in front of Old Mrs. Mu, never in front of the villagers.

This time, it was like making a vow; Matchmaker Sun genuinely decided not to meddle in the Old Mu Family’s affairs anymore.

Unless Mu Xiangxiang and her nephew Sun Dali could make a life together.

Matchmaker Sun’s concession made Old Mrs. Mu feel triumphant.

Mr. Mu wanted to salvage the situation, but unfortunately, Matchmaker Sun had made up her mind.

Once Matchmaker Sun left, Old Mrs. Mu lost her quarrel target and quieted down.

The villagers reluctantly dispersed, leaving only the Old Mu Family members.

Old Mrs. Mu thought the matter was over, but unfortunately, Mr. Mu was determined not to let Old Mrs. Mu have it easy.

He didn’t say a word, heading straight towards the main house.

By the time Old Mrs. Mu realized, it was too late; Mr. Mu had already broken into Mu Xiangxiang’s room.

Inside, the room was clean; Mu Xiangxiang sat on a chair, with a pile of food in front of her. When the old man entered, she was smacking her lips, eating.

Seeing Mr. Mu, Mu Xiangxiang was first startled, then began to pretend to be silly and laughed foolishly.

Unfortunately, none of it could fool Mr. Mu now.

"Girl, you’re not crazy at all! At Dalang’s wedding banquet, you and your mother colluded, just to avoid marrying that Qin Family brat!" Mr. Mu said.

Following behind, Old Mrs. Mu turned pale.

Deceiving one’s spouse is never a trivial matter.

"Old man, listen to me, Xiangxiang really was crazy before, and just in recent days, she’s become a bit clearer. I was afraid she’d go crazy again, so I didn’t dare tell you. Old man, please don’t blame me!"

Old Mrs. Mu sobbed, playing the pitiful victim.

"Enough, put away your crying, fussing antics.

This time, I truly don’t intend to keep you as my wife. Pack your things and go back to your Liu Family Village!"

This time, Mr. Mu seemed resolute. After he said this, no matter how Old Mrs. Mu tried to explain, he refused to look at her.

He truly seemed to have lost heart.

Mu Shuangshuang watched this scene with a cold smile, feeling immensely pleased. That old hag deserved to learn a lesson.

The family ended up like this, and that old hag couldn’t escape responsibility.

If she hadn’t acted so excessively, treating others like nothing, how would the third branch have suffered so much?

How would the fourth branch become so silent about everything?

Even Dalang and Bitao had to sneak around just to get married.

"Old man, are you really willing to let me go? Over the years, I’ve worried myself sick about this family. Without me, can this home even hold together?"

Mr. Mu was unmoved.

Old Mrs. Mu started wailing, but not a single person spoke for her. Even her beloved Mu Xiangxiang was just beside her, continuously stuffing food into her mouth like a garbage bin, endlessly consuming junk.

Mrs. Lin was also contemplating, thinking that once Old Mrs. Mu left, she would become the oldest daughter-in-law in the Old Mu Family.

Managing all of the Old Mu Family’s affairs, big and small.

Mu Dazhong and Mu Danian’s mouths curled to a certain angle, reflecting on just how many outrageous things Old Mrs. Mu must have done to end up like this.

However, Old Mrs. Mu didn’t think she had done anything wrong.

Although she uttered words of remorse, her eyes showed no trace of repentance.

Seeing this, Mu Dalang and Huang Bitao both knelt down: "Grandfather, Grandmother knows she was wrong. Please, spare her!"

"Even though Grandmother has a bad temper, her intentions were for the best for the Old Mu Family. Everyone shares the responsibility for Aunt’s predicament.

If she hadn’t been pushed to marry into the Qin Family, to that paralyzed man, Grandmother wouldn’t have... wouldn’t have done such a thing," Mu Dalang said.

Once Mu Dalang spoke, the others who had been watching decided to make a show of it by saying, "Father, just let it go. At the end of the day, you and Mother have been married for so many years."

Mrs. Lin added, "Father, although Mother hasn’t handled things perfectly, at least Xiangxiang isn’t actually crazy, which is a good thing. This way, she won’t need to marry that fat boy from the Sun Family. Perhaps she could even marry a landlord."

Mrs. Lin didn’t realize that by speaking, she reminded Mr. Mu of Old Mrs. Mu’s deceit.

And her attitude in handling matters.

"All of you, shut up! Whoever pleads for her can leave with her! The Old Mu Family is still my domain!"

-

The show was almost over by this point. Mu Shuangshuang, not saying a word, left Mu Xiangxiang’s room.

Returning to the third branch, she hadn’t even caught her breath before her parents bombarded her with questions about the situation.

Mu Shuangshuang naturally replied truthfully.

After listening, the couple fell into silence, each with faces looking somewhat troubled.
