Chapter 982: Chapter 978: Regret Down to the Guts (Part 2)

Mu Xiangxiang is Old Mrs. Mu’s treasure, no matter who in the family chooses not to go, they won’t let Mu Xiangxiang skip it.

Mr. Mu already knows that Mu Xiangxiang is pretending to be crazy, not truly insane.

So there’s no reason to stop her.

”Let Xiangxiang go, but let me say this first, she’s not allowed to talk to people in the village.

And she’s not allowed to cause trouble for the third branch, and certainly not allowed to eat meals meant for three or four men.”

Mu Xiangxiang’s appetite, which is greater than a pig’s, has been growing recently.

Every time Mr. Mu advises Old Mrs. Mu, she brushes him off.

So he doesn’t interfere anymore, figuring that when the time comes, his wife will realize just how foolish her actions are.

”Then I’ll go to third son’s place to see what they’re using to take us to the town.” Old Mrs. Mu stood up and said.

After a short while, Old Mrs. Mu returned, fuming.

”Pah, I said that bastard had no good intentions, claiming he’d send someone to pick us up, nonsense!”

”He left early in the morning by carriage himself, I’m so mad!”

Old Mrs. Mu started scolding Mu Dashan as soon as she stepped inside.

Mr. Mu took two puffs of his dry tobacco and asked, ”Old lady, can you tell me slowly what’s the matter?

You’re all startled and I still don’t know what happened.”

”What else could it be? Your good son, just yesterday he said we’d go to town together, and when I went there just now, the door was locked.

When I asked the villagers, they said they left early by carriage to town, so wasn’t he just playing with me, the old lady?” Old Mrs. Mu asked angrily.

”Yesterday, you were the one who confidently insisted on not going, the restaurant’s opening today, the third family has a lot to do, so going early isn’t unusual, is it?” Mr. Mu said.

”You always have a justified reason, since you’re so good at explaining, tell me how we’re getting to town then? I’m not walking there.” Old Mrs. Mu said.

”Go find Old Wang, the third son invited him, doesn’t his family have a carriage, or go to Fu Wu’s, Fu Wu is the younger generation, it’s fine for us elders to hitch a ride.”

When Old Mrs. Mu heard she wouldn’t have to walk, she stopped speaking.

She first went to Mu Xiangxiang’s room and called Mu Shuangshuang to tidy up.

Mu Xiangxiang woke up late, and when Old Mrs. Mu entered, she was still asleep.

Old Mrs. Mu shouted herself hoarse, but Mu Xiangxiang didn’t respond.

Finally, Mu Xiangxiang shouted, ”Xiangxiang, get up quickly, we’re going to your third brother’s restaurant for some delicious food!”

”Roast chicken, roast goose, you can eat whatever you want...”

Hearing talk of food vaguely, Mu Xiangxiang finally got up, and Old Mrs. Mu bustled, helping Mu Xiangxiang wash her face, dress, and apply red lipstick.

After doing all this, half an hour had passed.

Mr. Mu waited impatiently and had Mrs. Liu urge them twice.

Every time, Mrs. Liu was scolded harshly, so she didn’t dare to urge them anymore.

When everyone was ready, the Wang family’s carriage had waited for quite a while.

This time, due to a celebration in the third branch, the Wang family made an exception.

Normally, people in the village wouldn’t even be able to invite the Wang family.

At the courtyard gate, the coachman waited long enough and finally saw the Old Mu Family coming out. Seeing such a large family scared him.

”Owner, all the people from the Old Mu Family are here, what do we do?”

The coachman is a temporary worker for the Wang family, hired specifically to drive the carriage this time.

Old Wang peeked out and saw Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu followed by a crowd and instantly regretted it.

Luckily, Mr. Mu said first, ”Old Wang, it’s just me and my wife on the carriage, it shouldn’t be crowded, right?”

Old Master Wang nodded.

Before he could say more, Old Mrs. Mu shouted, ”Who said it’s just us? Isn’t Xiangxiang riding? Xiangxiang is frail, she should be on the carriage too!”

As Old Mrs. Mu spoke, she pulled Mu Xiangxiang onto the carriage.

Old Master Wang frowned.

The carriage was meant for four people, if it’s just Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu, it’s fine.

But now adding Mu Xiangxiang...

Old Mrs. Mu was the last to get on, and once she did, Mrs. Wang was pushed against the carriage wall, unable to move.

Old Mrs. Mu and Mu Xiangxiang obliviously squeezed against Mrs. Wang.

Old Master Wang, feeling sorry, said to his wife, ”Fu Gui Niang, come over here, there’s room next to me!”

Old Master Wang gestured beside him.

Old Mrs. Mu quickly said, ”Come over for what? Old sister is a woman, Father Xiangxiang is a man, if they’re so close and get misunderstood, what then?”

”Exactly, Uncle Wang, Aunt Wang is beside me, it’s perfectly safe.”

Mu Xiangxiang echoed Old Mrs. Mu, continuously pressing against Mrs. Wang.

Poor Mrs. Wang’s face was squeezed into a different shape.

Mr. Mu deeply regretted it; had he known how domineering the Old Mu Family was, he wouldn’t have let them on the carriage for anything.

Now he felt sorry for his wife; the more he thought, the more upset Old Master Wang became.

His unhappiness, seen in Old Mrs. Mu’s eyes, seemed petty.

Old Mrs. Mu became even more impolite, instructing Mu Xiangxiang to press against Mrs. Wang along the way.

By the time they reached town, Mrs. Wang was barely alive.

Meanwhile, Mu Dalang and Huang Bita, along with a few kids from the fourth branch, having been abandoned by Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu, had to walk.

The young Xiao Chu from the fourth branch refused to walk after a few steps.

In the end, Mu Dalang and Mu Dajiang took turns carrying him to town.

This trip exhausted everyone.

——

The restaurant’s setup was arranged yesterday; today the focus is welcoming guests and introducing the dishes.

Mu Shuangshuang has a heavy task, having promised everyone to tell stories from Journey to the West.

Several groups of people came asking about this.

Mu Shuangshuang had to tell them that she’d be narrating the story for an entire afternoon after lunch.

Their enthusiasm was kindled, and they all stood outside, waiting for Chengfeng Restaurant’s opening ceremony.

The third branch family arrived just in time to see Mu Shuangshuang preparing ingredients in the kitchen.

Her time is precious; later she’ll be cooking a table of signature dishes for everyone to taste for free.

She also needs to oversee the whole restaurant, making it hard to manage everything.

When the kids got off the carriage and saw the newly renovated restaurant, they shouted in excitement.

This delight spread to the onlookers around.

During the opening, candies and sunflower seeds are given out at the restaurant; anyone who came for the celebration received some.

”Third Uncle, I’ll directly take you to the private room upstairs, it’s prepared for our own people.”

The second and third floors each have the largest private rooms; the third floor is for VIPs, while the second is for the Er Gui Village people and the third family to dine today.

”Good, good...” Mu Dashan couldn’t stop smiling.

The restaurant business was entirely managed by Shuangshuang and Fengzi, with no involvement from him and Shuangshuang’s mother.

He never expected it to turn out so well.

It was beyond his expectations.
