Chapter 14 It's for Her

"Yes, yes, yes."

Mu Qingge passed the bracelet and letter to Mu Changyun, and then she looked at Mu Yanjing and said, "Now it's my turn to ask my younger sister. Yanjing, what else do you want to say now?"

Mu Yanjing was flustered, but she quickly calmed down and said, "How do I know why your maid has my things? What if she stole them?"

"Steal?" Mu Qingge smiled and said, "Your courtyard can be regarded as heavily guarded. Lv Zhu is just a maid around me. It is very difficult to enter your courtyard. Do you still want to steal these things from your room?"

"Maybe it wasn't your maid who stole it, but you? You're jealous that Father dotes on me and always gives me things, so it's not impossible for you to steal them."

This time, it was Shen Weilan who spoke. "Maybe Master dotes on Aunt Liu more and has given her a lot of things. But both Aunt Liu and you seem to have forgotten that I am his legal wife."

"When I was unmarried, I was also the daughter of the Shen family in the Capital. When I married into the Mu family, my parents prepared 48 tons of dowry for me."

"Do you think that Mu Qingge and I would be lacking in these things? As daughters of the Mu family, before making such accusations, you should carefully consider your words,"

Mu Changyun gritted his teeth and did not speak. The veins on his forehead were bulging.

Shen Weilan turned to look at Mu Changyun and said, "I have been married into the Mu family for less than three years. My father was demoted because of his crimes. Master moved to Aunt Liu and neglected me. Although I feel very sad, I have only endured it silently. I have never hurt or felt sad about it."

"But after enduring for so many years, what did you get in return?"

"When I gave birth to the baby, I was almost killed, and the baby almost died with me."

"Qingge was framed again and again."

Shen Weilan was in tears. "This matter is now very clear. I wonder how Master will deal with the culprit who framed Qingge?"

Mu Changyun gritted his teeth and stared at Mu Yanjing, who was a little flustered and her face turned pale. "Father, I really..."

Before she could finish her words, Mu Changyun had already raised his foot and kicked Mu Yanjing.

"I've already warned you in the afternoon to reflect on yourself. Don't make trouble all day long, but you did it again and again. Is it because I haven't punished you enough?"

"Bring me a whip."

The servant quickly handed over the whip.

Mu Changyun took the whip and threw it at Mu Yanjing.

"Ah!" Mu Yanjing held her headache and cried out. Aunt Liu quickly stepped forward and grabbed the arm of Mu Changyun. "Master, you will hurt Jing'er if you hit her like this!"

Mu Qingge watched coldly with a sneer on her face.

Yes, Mu Yanjing will be hurt.

But in her previous life, she had suffered more than this.

Mu Changyun was so angry that he lashed Mu Yanjing several times.

Only then did Mu Qingge finally speak up calmly, "Father, please stop the violence. Yesterday, Yanjing had sexual relations with Wang Huanzhi at the Princess's Mansion. It is possible that she is already carrying Wang Huanzhi's child. If you continue to strike her, it may have negative consequences."

"How dare she?" Mu Changyun was even more exasperated when he heard what Mu Qingge said.

"If she is pregnant with the illegitimate child of Wang Huanzhi, she should be tied up directly and burned to death, so as not to ruin the reputation of the Mu family."

Mu Qingge smiled.

That was great.

In a fit of anger, Mu Changyun whipped Mu Yanjing a few more times and ordered his servant to take her back to her room to keep an eye on her. After she copied the family rules a hundred times, the farce finally came to an end.

Mu Qingge helped Shen Weilan out of the ancestral hall. Shen Weilan asked, "What about the letter?"

Mu Qingge quickly added, "Indeed, the letter was given by Mu Yanjing to Lv Zhu, with the intention of hiding it in my dressing box to frame me for having an affair with Wang Huanzhi and to set me up."

"But Lv Zhu secretly touched the face powder that you gave me before. The face powder has a unique fragrance and can last forever. When I took a nap before, I went back to the room and found the bracelet and letter hidden in the makeup according to the smell of the fragrant powder."

"When I saw the bracelet and the letter, I guessed what Mu Yanjing wanted to do, so I replaced them with bracelets and scriptures of different styles to avoid a disaster."

When Mu Qingge mentioned this, she still couldn't help but let out a long sigh. "Mother, the face powder is really useful. Sure enough, sometimes perfume-making can help us do a lot of things."

Shen Weilan gritted her teeth. "Aunt Liu and her daughter are really vicious."

Shen Weilan turned her head to look at Mu Qingge and was about to say something when she noticed the handprint on Mu Qingge's face. "Who did this?"

Mu Qingge raised her hand to touch her own face, feeling the lingering pain from Mu Changyun's forceful slap. Her face still stung with a burning sensation.

"It's Father."

Shen Weilan closed her eyes, full of disappointment. "How dare he hit you? He has rarely seen you for so many years, let alone taught you. How dare he hit you because of someone else's one-sided statement?"

Shen Weilan's voice trembled slightly as she spoke, "I initially thought that with your maternal grandparents being demoted to Ningzhou City, we no longer had any backing in the Capital. I stayed in the Mu family, hoping that at least you would still have the status of the legitimate eldest daughter of the Mu family. Even if you were to marry, you could have a better marriage."

"But now..."

Mu Qingge never knew that Shen Weilan thought so. No wonder.

She had always found it strange that Mu Changyun treated her mother like that, but her mother didn't divorce Mu Changyun.

She had originally believed that with her maternal grandparents no longer in the capital, her mother felt that there was nowhere else to go and that she would face judgment and scrutiny from others if she were to leave.

But it turned out that she did it for her.

Unfortunately...

Mu Qingge took a deep breath and said, "Mother, I don't care. Aunt Liu and Mu Yanjing are anxious to kill us. For the time being, the most important thing is to keep our lives."

"Besides, I don't want to get married."

In her past life, she encountered inhuman treatment that ultimately led to her painful death, and it also harmed her newborn child.

In this life, although she was reborn and did not let Mu Yanjing and Wang Huanzhi succeed in their conspiracy, she did not change her fate of being defiled.

She was no longer a virgin. How could she get married?

Shen Weilan did not know what Mu Qingge was thinking. She gritted her teeth and said, "Well, I have been deceived and ignorant for so many years. Fortunately, after what happened in recent days, I finally realized it. I will find a way to take you and your brother out of Mu family."

"Alright, let's think of a way to leave the Mu family."

Early the next morning, Mu Qingge was awakened again.

This time, it was Mu Changyun who sent a maid to invite her to the main courtyard.

Once seeing her, Mu Changyun said directly, "The Wang family has sent someone to ask us to meet in the teahouse in the afternoon to talk about your younger sister and Wang Huanzhi."

"About my younger sister and Wang Huanzhi?" Mu Qingge raised her eyebrows. "Is the Wang family going to discuss their marriage?"

This time, the heroine was Mu Yanjing. Why did the Wang family take action so fast?

After the incident in her previous life, the Wang family had allowed others to point fingers at her for a long time and had never made their stance clear. It was not until the news of her pregnancy spread that they sent someone over to say that they were willing to marry her.

"Yes." Mu Changyun nodded. "You and I will go with Yanjing this afternoon."

"Me?"

"It can only be you." Mu Changyun sighed. "The marriage of the girls in the mansion should have been handled by your mother."

"But your mother is still in confinement. It's inconvenient. Aunt Liu is just a concubine. You are the lineal eldest daughter of Mu family. An elder sister is like a mother. It's most appropriate for you to go with us."

Mu Qingge smiled.

This was truly very interesting.

Although Mu Yanjing was now in the mansion, she was whipped, kneeling in the ancestral hall, and directly beaten by Mu Changyun.

However, she had been in the Mu mansion all the time.

After the incident, Mu Yanjing had not left the mansion yet.

She had never experienced being ridiculed by tens of millions of people before.

And Wang Huanzhi...

"Okay, I'll go with you."
