From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!-Chapter 992 - 988: Seducing My Son (First Update)

"What?" Huang Er didn’t understand for a moment.

"You saw me slicing the roast duck today, right?" Mu Shuangshuang said.

"Yeah, that roast duck was really delicious," Huang Er recalled.

"And the roast fish, the roast chicken, and the braised pork." The mention of food made everyone present a bit hungry.

They had dinner early, and after chatting for so long, it was understandable that they felt a bit hungry.

"If you don’t mind the trouble, Huang Er, I can teach you these four dishes, and you can make them the signature dishes at the restaurant, how about that?" Mu Shuangshuang asked.

Huang Er thought about it and felt it was indeed a good job.

He loved eating himself, and nowhere else offered more food than the kitchen, plus he could make such crispy roast duck.

"Yeah, yeah, but I’ve never cooked before, Miss Shuangshuang, you have to teach me!"

Mu Shuangshuang listened and laughed heartily; finally, the restaurant had a solution for a major issue.

Whether it works or not is another matter, but at least now they had a candidate, and that’s a fact.

At least things were moving in a positive direction.

"Then we brothers will head back first," Huang Da said.

After seeing off Huang Da and Huang Er, Mu Dashan took out several red envelopes that some village elders had given him earlier.

Mu Shuangshuang counted them; the amounts were considerable, with the smallest being ten coins.

Then there were the red envelopes from the Old Yu Family, totaling two to three hundred coins.

And then there were the red envelopes from Zheng Zhi and Jiu Si Xuan’s people. Mu Shuangshuang felt that just collecting red envelopes all day had made her tired.

If only she could collect like this every day.

Mu Shuangshuang gave the counted money to Lu Yuanfeng to count.

Lu Yuanfeng refused: "Shuangshuang manages the household accounts; I don’t handle these."

But Mu Shuangshuang still took out half: "We both worked, so you can’t always refuse your part. Otherwise, how can you save up money?"

Mu Shuangshuang was referring to the jewelry box in Lu Yuanfeng’s wardrobe.

She knew he stored all his money there. Although she didn’t know what was inside, it was definitely something precious.

"All the money from the game I sold from hunting, I saved it. This one’s yours!" Lu Yuanfeng still wouldn’t take it.

And he said, "We should give the money to Little Black to hide; our restaurant business is good, and we can’t be sure some won’t covet it!"

Mu Shuangshuang nodded: "Yes, Little Black is our home’s expert at hiding money. Besides it, even I don’t feel safe hiding it myself!"

At Old Mu Family, Mrs. Lin was punished to kneel at the doorway of the grand hall. It was called kneeling, but there was a cotton cushion under her knees.

Old Mrs. Mu would come to check occasionally. Whenever Mrs. Lin heard a noise, she would take the cushion away and tuck it into her belly.

After several rounds, Old Mrs. Mu finally decided to call it a night.

Before leaving, she reminded Mrs. Lin: "Wretched woman, you’re punished to kneel all night today. If you dare get up, I’ll skin you alive!"

Mrs. Lin inwardly cursed Old Mrs. Mu a million times.

Yet she responded to Old Mrs. Mu: "Mother, I understand, I won’t dare again, you go ahead and sleep!" said Mrs. Lin.

Inside Mr. Mu’s room, the smoke was thick.

Ever since coming back, Mr. Mu hadn’t stopped smoking his dry tobacco.

The village chief’s gaze, everyone’s gaze felt like needles, making Mr. Mu uneasy.

Meaning, he was still angry about what happened during the day.

"Old man, don’t be mad, I’ve already punished Mrs. Lin!"

The night belonged to Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu’s world.

Usually, at this time, Old Mrs. Mu behaved very well.

Otherwise, Mr. Mu would never tolerate her.

At thirty like a wolf, forty like a tiger, and fifty sitting on the ground absorbing dirt—Old Mrs. Mu was at her age, with her needs robust.

Mr. Mu snorted coldly, his hand with the dry tobacco continued to puff.

"Old man, don’t be like this, don’t I know my mistake? I won’t let you lose face again, can’t you forgive me?"

Old Mrs. Mu rubbed against Mr. Mu, speaking soft words.

"Get away!" Mr. Mu irritatedly pushed Old Mrs. Mu aside.

Old Mrs. Mu inhaled smoke, choking and tearing up, snot running.

"Why do you have to treat this thing like a lifeline and smoke it non-stop?" Old Mrs. Mu asked.

"Alright, I didn’t mean that, you won’t get anything tonight!" Mr. Mu stated directly.

That was enough to anger Old Mrs. Mu.

"Not giving then, what’s so great about it."

Mr. Mu climbed into bed, not bothering to wash his feet; he covered himself with the quilt and prepared to sleep.

However, his feet were cold, and the inside of the quilt felt frigid.

"Oh dear, you didn’t even heat the bed," Old Mrs. Mu exclaimed.

Mr. Mu was preoccupied with his inner turmoil, neglecting heating the bed nor eating.

He said: "Tomorrow morning, the whole village will know that Mu Dabiao’s wife stole her granddaughter’s things, and oh, Old Mu Family, how can anyone deal with this!"

"What’s the point of saying this now? It’s that wretched woman who can’t keep her hands clean!

She stole, then got caught, how could she be so stupid to not avoid getting caught?" Old Mrs. Mu started cursing Mrs. Lin again.

"And that troublesome girl too, she’s her second aunt but still had to point it out, why not just smooth it over and let it pass?" Old Mrs. Mu added discontentedly.

"How can you blame Shuangshuang? It’s the second daughter-in-law who dropped the items herself. If she hadn’t, Shuangshuang wouldn’t have said anything, right?"

"You... you’re siding with that troublesome girl. Fine, I won’t bother you anymore, you sort it out yourself!"

Mr. Mu sighed for a while but couldn’t resist sleepiness.

Outside the hall, Mrs. Lin waited for a long time without seeing Old Mrs. Mu, feeling reassured to leave.

After leaving, she’d go to Mu Dalang’s room to scold Huang Bita.

Inside Huang Bita’s room, two young people were passionately kissing when Mrs. Lin suddenly kicked the door open.

The two were almost scared out of their wits, and their clothes were mostly undone. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Mrs. Lin pointed at Mu Dalang and Huang Bita and cursed, "Shameless thing, seducing my son, you harlot, you only know to force my son into that kind of thing, can’t you feel alive without doing that?"

Perhaps the absence of men stimulated Mrs. Lin further against Mu Dalang and Huang Bita.

Mrs. Lin’s cursing had no mercy.

Mu Dalang’s face turned black with anger and shouted at Mrs. Lin: "Mother, get out!"

"Get out of what, you rotten boy, sooner or later you’ll be drained by this nasty woman," Mrs. Lin replied.

Mu Dalang was nearly driven mad, ignoring that he was shirtless.

He directly stepped on the ground barefoot and pushed Mrs. Lin out.

Mu Dalang slammed the door heavily, followed by Mrs. Lin’s loud curses outside, targeting Huang Bita and Mu Dalang, all sorts of unpleasant words.

"Mother, if you wake up grandmother and grandfather, I’m not responsible!"

Only then did Mrs. Lin stop, angrily returning to her own room.

Without washing or bathing, she went straight to bed.
