From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 985: Chapter 981: So You Want Money? I’ll Give It to You (Second Update)

”What are you talking about, they are them, we are us.

The third one is our son, he didn’t show filial piety to us, fine. But why should we, as parents, give him money instead?”

Old Mrs. Mu’s voice suddenly rose.

The village head and a few uncles all heard it.

Even Old Master Wang turned his head, obviously not wanting to deal with Mr. Mu and Old Mrs. Mu.

Mu Dashan quickly came out to smooth things over: ”Dad, your presence is a blessing to me, how can I ask for your money.”

Old Mrs. Mu also said triumphantly: ”Did you hear that? The third one also said he doesn’t want our money. I don’t know what kind of pride you’re talking about.”

The village head chimed in: ”Old man, they are all your sons. It’s fine. We’re just here to share in the joy of the third family.

The third one’s daughter, Shuangshuang, is capable and hardworking. In less than a year, she has started a restaurant.

Look around Er Gui Village, how many have such skills? You should be happy about this.”

The rest of the uncles also praised Mu Shuangshuang.

But the more comforting words they said, the more Mr. Mu felt his face was being slapped hard.

The third branch managed to achieve what they have now only after separating.

The third branch’s daughter, only after the separation, did she return to normal.

Previously, she was foolish and dumb, not daring to speak. Now she stands before everyone, speaking and acting without fear.

But weren’t all these predicated on the split?

Outsiders were giving red envelopes, yet as the father, as the grandfather, he had to ask his wife even for half a coin.

Mr. Mu was shaking with anger, he shouted at Old Mrs. Mu: ”You dead old woman, if I tell you to give, you give. Why are you rambling? If you don’t give it, roll out of the Old Mu Family.

Just as the village head and the uncles are here, I’ll divorce you!”

Old Mrs. Mu was stunned.

In the past, when talking about divorcing his wife, Mr. Mu did so in front of family, and now he spoke of it in front of outsiders.

”Well, Mu Dabiao, you really are something. I, an old woman, have worked hard for the Old Mu Family for decades, and this is how I’m treated.

Don’t you want money? I’ll give it to you, will that not be enough?”

Old Mrs. Mu began searching for Copper Coins on herself, which she usually tucked in the pocket of her bellyband; to get the money, she had to undress.

At this moment, she didn’t care about dignity anymore,

she tugged at her clothes ready to undress.

The first cotton-padded jacket undone, Mu Dashan was frightened and stunned.

”Mom, what are you doing?” Mu Dashan stepped forward to hold down Old Mrs. Mu’s hand.

The village head and a few uncles quickly turned their backs.

”Get away from me, your dad wants money, I’ll give it to him!” Old Mrs. Mu said viciously.

”But you can’t undress, so many people are watching...” Mu Dashan tried to persuade Old Mrs. Mu.

”Your dad said in front of so many people that he’ll divorce me, it’s clearly he doesn’t want me to live. I’m telling you, today I’ll show him...”

The situation was getting out of control, and people began to notice.

Yu Si Niang was scared and went into the restaurant to call Mu Shuangshuang.

She briefly explained what happened.

When Mu Shuangshuang came out, Mu Dashan was still holding Old Mrs. Mu.

She went up and said to Mu Dashan: ”Dad, let go of my grandma, let her undress!”

”Shuangshuang, what are you doing?” Mu Dashan was puzzled.

His daughter came out not to console, but instead asked him to let go of his mother.

”Dad, is blocking her any useful? Grandma wants to embarrass herself, let her do it. At worst, in the future everyone in Qingshan Town will know my grandma undressed in front of everyone at the opening of her third son’s restaurant.

Let them think her a crazy woman, and let them know my scholar uncle has a crazy mother. I want to see if my uncle will still bring grandma to the Capital to enjoy life!”

Mu Shuangshuang said coldly.

To be honest, Mu Shuangshuang was in a bad mood.

Her restaurant was opening, and not only did the Old Mu Family not help, they just caused trouble.

She never expected the Old Mu Family to bring her any benefits, but at least shouldn’t act like mad dogs, always creating chaos.

Mu Dashan listened to Mu Shuangshuang’s words and let go of Old Mrs. Mu.

As for Old Mrs. Mu, because of Mu Shuangshuang’s words, she calmed down.

She straightened her clothes.

”Well, grandma, why aren’t you undressing anymore?” Mu Shuangshuang asked.

”Just because you want me to undress doesn’t mean I will. I won’t. I’m taking Xiangxiang to eat something delicious.” After saying that, Old Mrs. Mu realized Mu Xiangxiang was gone.

”Xiangxiang, where’s Xiangxiang?” Old Mrs. Mu asked.

”Mom, Xiangxiang went to the private room on the second floor. Come with me.” Yu Si Niang said.

After Yu Si Niang left, Mu Shuangshuang comforted Mr. Mu a bit, mostly about how everyone should be happy on such a joyous occasion.

Mr. Mu’s anger wasn’t completely assuaged, but it was better than when Old Mrs. Mu was around.

”Village head, uncles, there’s a lot for Shuangshuang to handle today, sorry for not being a good host. Please don’t take it to heart.”

Mu Shuangshuang bowed to everyone.

”Shuang girl, we were just saying how capable you are.” The village head said cheerfully.

”Haha, it’s all thanks to friends and everyone’s help. Fengzi has helped me a lot; without him and friends’ support, I wouldn’t be here today.” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”This girl, so modest!” Old Master Wang laughed.

The other elders laughed along.

Fu Wu even pulled Fu Xiaonan forward.

”You, didn’t you say you missed Shuangshuang? She’s out, why aren’t you going over?”

Fu Xiaonan blushed, ”Dad, Shuangshuang is so busy, I can’t bother her.”

”Xiaonan, I have time now, we can chat.” Mu Shuangshuang said.

As good friends, the two hadn’t seen each other for some time.

Fu Xiaonan had gone to visit relatives at her grandmother’s, and Mu Shuangshuang was busy with restaurant and academy affairs, and the two girls hadn’t met for a while.

Once they met, there was so much to talk about.

Of course, more about girls’ little secrets: ”Shuangshuang, how are you and Fengzi?” Fu Xiaonan asked.

”Great, you see, that guy is very proactive.” Mu Shuangshuang said.

”And you?” Mu Shuangshuang asked.

Fu Xiaonan’s expression instantly dimmed: ”Just so-so, my dad arranged a few marriages, but once people know I was annulled from a childhood betrothal, they refuse to marry me.

I probably won’t be able to marry in this lifetime.”

Fu Xiaonan had a lively personality, except being sad about Zhao Qingshan, she was always cheerful.

On the Qixi Festival, she even got into a fight with Old Mrs. Mu.

”You silly girl, how can you not get married? You’re beautiful, and your family is well-off. Those men refusing marriage are their loss.

In the future, you’ll surely find a man ten, hundred, or even a thousand times better than them. As for them, they can only find themselves a shrew.”

Mu Shuangshuang winked at Fu Xiaonan, continuing to say.

Fu Xiaonan laughed heartily as well: ”Yeah, not wanting me is those men’s loss!”

(I might have to inconvenience my dear readers for a few days. Recently, I have an urgent matter in real life, so I need to take time off, reducing updates for nine days. That means, instead of previously three Chapters totaling six thousand words per day, in these nine days, I’ll only update two Chapters with four thousand words.

I know it might disappoint you, my dear readers. I calculated that nine days will have eighteen thousand fewer words. Once things with Fengfeng are sorted out, I’ll compensate with double, meaning thirty-six thousand words worth of drafts.

If there’s anything, feel free to message me on QQ 2903734743; I’ll be online intermittently in these nine days.)
