“She is a wicked woman. She wanted to kill me!” The old master snorted softly. “Anyway, I will hit her every time I see her! If you speak up for her again, I will hit you too!”
Mu Ling’s face darkened. This old man was really unreasonable.
Qingyan was so kind to him. However, he wronged her by saying that she wanted to poison him.
“Father, I tolerate you because you are my father. I had even asked Qingyan to be patient with you, but you can’t ignore her kindness. I will let you live with Second Brother for a few days. Please move back to the eastern courtyard after your birthday. Please don’t let her down again since she is working so hard to please you.
“You said that Qingyan wanted to poison you. Alright, I won’t let Qingyan prepare your medicine next time, lest you misunderstand her again.”
After that, Mu Ling turned away with a contorted face. He was afraid that he would quarrel with his father if he stayed there.
The old master stared in Mu Ling’s direction. He was a little aggrieved.
“Butler, will Suyi come back this time? Will she return with my grandson?”
The butler moved toward the old master and sighed softly. “Yes.”
“Oh, Mu Ling has bullied me and shouted at me just now. He’s a jerk. I’m going to tell Suyi and let her have at him!”
The butler was silent for a while. “You can hit him back, Old Master.”
“No, no. I’m not the kind of person who will hit people. I have a good temper.”
The butler was speechless.
‘Don’t you feel guilty of saying this, Old Master?’
Nonetheless, the butler knew that every time Chen Qingyan appeared, the old master would be irritated. He would scold and beat her. If someone stopped him, he would beat that person too.
When Chen Qingyan did not show up, the old man would not get sick so easily.
“Old Master, you hate Chen Qingyan so much. Are there any other reasons for hating her?”
The butler was doubtful about this.
In the past, although the old master did not like Chen Qingyan, he did not hate her to such an extent.
When did he start to be like this?
Apparently, it seemed that he had started to hate her just before Lady Suyi left the Mu family.
“Why? I don’t really remember…” The old master stared blankly. “I have always felt that I have forgotten a lot of things lately. If this goes on, will I forget to eat too?”
The butler said with sympathetically, “Old Master, it doesn’t matter. I will remember to feed you.”
“Oh, right. Little Qingyin should be attending school, right? Have you registered him for school?”
“Old Master, Second Young Master is almost thirty years old now.”
“Is little Qingyin almost thirty? Time passes so fast. I remember that he was only this big before.” Old Master Mu gestured with his hand as if he was in deep memories. “Back then, he was always following Suyi around, especially when she was pregnant. Little Qingyin was obviously in poor health, but he was like a little guard protecting her. By the way, where is Suyi? Where did she go?”
The butler sighed. “Lady Suyi has left the manor. She will be back in a few days.”
“Good, good. I thought Suyi was driven away by that bad woman. Luckily, she will return.”
The old man smiled.
The butler became sadder. The old master’s memory was worsening. He always forgot that Lady Suyi had run away from home. He often thought that the second young master was still a little young boy in his twenties.
How could it go on like this?
Perhaps, Lady Suyi and Nan Xian were the only ones who could comfort the old master now.
