In Fang Jinshi's dictionary, there was no such word as

o be my concubine"Although I have concubines, I haven't married a legitimate wife yet. Once you enter my household, you will be the only mistress in my courtyard."Are you really not considering it"Zon...Mu looked at him coldly, yes, she believed in Jinxiu.

"Whether what you say is true or not, I will never remarry you."

"Go away."

The moment she had the divorce papers delivered to the official's residence, she completely severed ties with Zong Pingchuan as a person.

Even after many years of marriage, the youthful affection has long since faded with the erosion of time, disappearing like smoke and clouds.

Incidentally, Mu Shi also understood a truth: people change, and so do feelings.

She shouldn't have such high expectations for people other than herself, let alone bet her future on a man.

Cherishing the present life and caring for the people around her is the only thing she wants to do now.

Zongpingchuan gritted his teeth and looked at Mu's eyes, which had become gloomy.

Okay, I'm leaving.

"Yún Hé, one day you will believe that everything I do is for you all."

Take care of your health.

After finishing his words, he glared fiercely at Fang Jinshi and then strode away.

"Jinxiu, don't be afraid, Mother won't let him hurt you."

"For anything, Mother will shield you."

Fang Jinshui smiled. "If he could hurt me, would he still come to persuade you alone again and again like this"

"Mother-in-law, as a daughter-in-law, I naturally also hope that Father-in-law truly means what he says and has you all in his heart."

But, there are many things in this world that you can't gamble with, and some people aren't worth your trust.

"Once defeated, it's utter annihilation."

Mu lowered her eyes and nodded slightly, she understood this perfectly well.

She had already lost to Zong Pingchuan once.

"Don't worry, I won't believe him."

"I truly hope he can sincerely repent and give you justice."

Mu smiled and shook her head. When Zong Bo brought back the news that he had remarried while still alive, she was indeed shocked and angry, heartbroken to the extreme. She just wanted to find Zong Pingchuan and ask him face to face why.

Even before the Hundred Vegetable Feast, she still had a desire in her heart for him to give an explanation, for a sense of justice.

But now, seeing Zong Pingchuan like this, she found that she was not as wronged and angry as she had imagined.

Instead, I find myself feeling more sorry for my past self.

"Even if you sincerely repent, time won't go backwards."

"After all these years of marriage, I'm afraid I've never truly understood him."

Fang Jinxiu was taken aback. She had heard from the servant in the morning that a man who looked like an official had come to see her grandmother-in-law. Her first reaction was to guess it was Zong Pingchuan.

She rushed over, afraid that her mother-in-law would be swayed by his sweet words.

Now it seems she underestimated the Mu family.

It turns out that mother-in-law's mind is so clear.

"It seems the daughter-in-law worried for nothing."

"Mom is so amazing, she understands everything."

Mu smiled and poked Fang Jinshu's nose. "You dare to tease your mother, huh"

She suddenly sighed, wondering why she had suddenly thought of her eldest son.

The topic inexplicably shifted to Zong Yu and the things on her head.

"But Jinxiu, mother believes Ah Yu is definitely not like his father. I watched him grow up myself; he doesn't have that much complicated thought."

"I heard from Zongbei that Ayu seems to have done alright on the frontier, even becoming some kind of general who won a battle and is coming back."

"Is this true"

Fang Jinxiu's face changed, and her smile vanished.

She nodded, "Hmm."

It's perfectly normal for a mother to worry about her son, and she has no right to keep Mu Shi from knowing about Zong Yu's situation.

Seeing her daughter-in-law's unhappy face, Mu Shi swallowed the words that had reached her lips.

It's best to let the couple work things out themselves. She was afraid that if she interfered, her clumsy words would only make matters worse and anger her daughter-in-law even more.

"Hey, even if you want to sentence Ayou, you should wait for him to come back and ask him face-to-face if it's true."

"Mother won't interfere with your decision, but Jinxiu, mother hopes you won't regret it."

Fang Jinxiu shook her head, would she regret it

No, there was no word for "regret" in Fang Jinshi's dictionary.

"Mother, you got up early this morning to see him, and now breakfast is not yet eaten."

I've said many times, breakfast is important, if you don't eat breakfast your body will get sick.

"Jinyu, help the old Madam back to have breakfast."

Mu knew that Jinxiu was unwilling to say more, besides sighing, she didn't say anything else. She obediently followed Jinyu back to eat breakfast.dn't even spare a common woman's house, let alone the family of an official who wasn't high-ranking.When Fang Jinshi arrived, Zong Taiwu had already entered. Xiaoyue stood in front of him."Young Maste...
