Chapter 114: The Marquis’s Wife Faking Her Death (18)

Mu Mu looked at the strange but amiable old man in front of him, then glanced at his father, Mu Ziyi. After receiving his father's encouraging look, he turned his head and whispered, "Hello, Grandma!"

"Ugh!"

Madam Hou responded happily, a loving smile on her face.

But when he looked at Lin Qingqing, his expression was a little unhappy.

Thinking that his son faked his death just to be with this woman, he guessed that this woman must be very scheming.

In fact, Madam Hou only had one son, Mu Ziyi, in her life, so she had an extraordinary possessiveness towards this son.

She was afraid that her son would forget his mother after he got married, so she had no good feelings towards any woman around her son.

Even with Lan Xin before, although she had said that she treated Lan Xin as her own daughter, in fact, it was just to make Lan Xin willingly serve as a blood bag for their mansion to support them.

However, when the engagement was first arranged, Madam Hou was more wary of Lan Xin because Lan Xin had the support of the General's Mansion.

Even if Lan Xin married into her family, she wouldn't dare to order her around or control her.

Later, she finally breathed a sigh of relief when Lan Xin was the only one left in the popular general's mansion.

However, when she saw how good her son was to Lan Xin, she was worried that Lan Xin was too attracted to her son. If Lan Xin had her son to protect her, she would not be able to act like a mother-in-law in front of Lan Xin.

She was afraid that her son would disobey her for Lan Xin.

After many years of being a daughter-in-law, she finally became a mother-in-law. She suffered so much at the hands of her mother-in-law. Now that she has become a mother-in-law herself, it is natural that she should enjoy the service of her daughter-in-law.

It wasn't until her son told her that he did that in order to get Lan Xin to use the General's Mansion's vast fortune to support the Marquis' Mansion that she felt relieved.

There are actually two reasons why Mu Ziyi faked his death. One is to make Lan Xin feel guilty so that she will be willing to contribute to the Marquis' Mansion.

Another reason is to be with Lin Qingqing, and use Lan Xin's support to live a life of luxury outside. When Lan Xin is no longer of any use, they will come back and reap the benefits.

However, Madam Hou disliked Lin Qingqing even more.

What good can a woman be who gives birth to a child without a matchmaker or an engagement?

Also, seeing how his son treated this woman like a treasure, this woman must have some tricks up her sleeve.

If I have a conflict with this woman, my son will most likely disobey me for her.

Besides, this woman has no one to rely on, and she might have come to her son because of his status.

However, her son had just returned, and she couldn't be separated from her son because of this woman.

Anyway, Lin Qingqing has moved in, so she has plenty of time to slowly polish her.

As long as she no longer holds any weight in her son's heart, she can do whatever she wants to her.

Although she thought so much in her mind, Madam Hou did not show any expression on her face and continued to talk to her son warmly.

"Mom, why don't I see Lan Xin? Isn't she at home?"

After enduring for a long time, Mu Ziyi finally asked the question that had been bothering him since he came in.

In addition to not seeing Lan Xin, Mu Ziyi also wondered why the Marquis' Mansion had fallen into such a state.

Logically speaking, Lan Xin should feel guilty towards him, so she would definitely use her dowry to help the Marquis' Mansion with all her might.

Did his first plan also fail?
