Chapter 889: Men of the Mu Family Must Have Integrity

Li Mumu went to see her great-grandfather wearing men's clothes.

The old man has experienced all kinds of ups and downs over the years, so he shouldn't be angry to death.

Wearing men's clothing is not to express one's orientation, but mainly for self-protection.

The heads of feudal families, especially those with a military background, often have a problem, which is that they treat the women in their family as non-human beings. They can marry their daughters and granddaughters off at will.

Li Mumu felt this when she walked into the gate of Prince Mu’s Mansion.

The women in the Mu family have no status at all. Even the main managers of the family are men, with a military-style management style.

The white-haired, big-breasted, long-legged girl is the only exception.

Li Mumu didn't expect to leave any good impression in front of the old man, so just don't take me too seriously.

When the old prince saw her dressed like this, he was indeed not angry, but he did not say anything either. He just squinted his eyes and remained silent for a while.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Li Mumu."

"Your last name is Li? Is it your mother's last name?"

"Yes."

"How old are you?"

"On the fifteenth day of the lunar year."

"Have you promised them?"

"not yet."

Li Mumu originally wanted to say that she was pregnant, but then she thought that the old man might ask more questions and she might not be able to make up a convincing lie.

In addition, Prince Mu’s Palace itself has certain channels for collecting information, so they decided to tell the truth.

"Have you read?"

As expected, the old man did not continue to dwell on this issue, otherwise he would definitely ask more about the other party's family situation or something.

"I'm in the third year of junior high school this year."

"Where do you go to school?"

"Qinghe Middle School."

"Qinghe Middle School?"

The old man was stunned for a moment: "Where is Zhou Yaowen?"

"Yes, it's Principal Zhou's school."

"Oh, that kid, now that he's grown strong, he doesn't even come to visit me for New Year's greetings."

When talking about Principal Zhou, the old man looked a little unhappy.

"What method do you practice?"

Eh? You're asking this question directly? You're really...

Li Mumu hesitated for a moment and whispered, "The outsider of the chess edict."

The old man shook his head and said, "No, you are not honest, little girl. I don't think you are cut out to study medicine. Tell the truth!"

Can you see this too?

Li Mumu's heart trembled, and then he realized that the old man in front of him was not simple.

This is crap.

The old man outlived three generations of emperors of the previous dynasty. Regardless of his identity, status, reputation, and seniority, he is undoubtedly one of the top talents in the country.

It would be strange if this were simple.

"The demon is on the right path."

"Well, you are so clever and eccentric, you are indeed a demon. The Mu family...hasn't produced such a demon for a long time."

The old man nodded slowly and asked again: "Your father never said anything good about the Mu family to you, right?"

I didn't even know my dad was from a wealthy family before I returned to China.

Li Mumu answered truthfully: "My father never said anything, and I didn't know that my family had this relationship with Prince Mu's Mansion."

"So, how do you feel about your home today?"

no feelings.

It's like visiting someone's home.

Li Mumu couldn't say anything, so she could only reluctantly say, "Very good."

"Bullshit, what's good about it? It's as deserted as a fucking grave!"

The old man rolled his eyes and cursed.

You said that, not me!
"Do you know why it's so quiet?"

Li Mumu thought to herself, I think it’s okay.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

I can’t say it’s deserted, how should I put it... It’s just that there’s a feeling that people’s hearts are scattered and can’t be gathered together.

Everybody was talking about their own thing, and no one could bring everyone together.

"why?"

"Because the Mu family has been fighting for the country for generations, the more outstanding the children in the family are, the faster they die! Now the only ones who survive to enjoy the aftermath of the dead are those useless people who can't even go to the battlefield!"

The old man stood up slowly with the help of his dragon-headed cane and motioned Li Mumu to follow him.

After passing through several doors, we arrived at a ancestral hall.

The old man pushed the door open and walked in. Li Mumu followed behind him and took a look inside.

There were hundreds of tablets densely packed on the altar.

And at a glance, they all have the surname Mu.

"Some people's namesakes are not worthy of being placed here. If they have the money to find a place to die, their descendants can offer sacrifices to them at all times of the year. There is no need for them to compete with ghosts for incense."

"This is your grandfather's tablet."

The old man pointed to a tablet in the front corner and whispered, "You don't know the others, just burn some incense for them."

Li Mumu nodded, picked up the sandalwood incense on the table, lit it, bowed three times towards his grandfather's tablet, and inserted the incense into the stove in front of the table.

Although I have visited the cemetery to pay tribute to my grandfather before, those were all Western gifts. Strictly speaking, this is the first time I have presented domestic incense to my grandfather.

It is natural to worship ancestors during the Chinese New Year, and she does not have any psychological burden about this matter.

Seeing that Li Mumu was not going to kneel down and kowtow, the old man shook his head and said, "Girl, men's clothes are not that easy to wear."

Li Mumu raised her head in confusion, not knowing what the old man meant.

"Since you chose to wear men's clothes and cut your hair short, I will treat you as a boy from the Mu family. Do you know why so many men from the Mu family died?"

"To repay your kindness?"

"Of course there are reasons for this. My Mu family has been a military family for generations. We have received the emperor's grace and devoted ourselves to the court. It is not an exaggeration to say that we have shed all our blood. Now that dynasties have changed and the old has been replaced by the new, the Mu family is no longer prosperous. It is all thanks to your second uncle and third uncle that we can barely support the family."

At this point, the old man's tone became bleak.

"Our family has fallen into decline, but those villains didn't dare to touch the tiger's beard until I closed my eyes. Your father has the ability to make a name for himself, and he doesn't want to have anything to do with the Mu family. I can understand his thoughts. To be honest, the Mu family really has nothing to give him now."

"But girl, you have the blood of the Mu family in your veins after all, and you look like a restless person with horns on your head. Grandfather, taking advantage of your seniority, asks you, are you willing to shed blood and sacrifice for this world, for the peace and prosperity of the country and the people, just like the uncles and ancestors here?"

Ok……

Li Mumu was a little embarrassed.

It's New Year's Day, and you throw such a serious question at me right away. How should I answer it?

"If not, take off this men's clothing."

The old man didn't expect Li Mumu to give any answer. Seeing her hesitation, he continued, "I just said that this men's suit is not so easy to wear. There's nothing wrong with going back to live an honest life and taking care of your husband and children."

"Men of the Mu family must have integrity. Even if they are incompetent, they must not commit crimes and bring shame to our ancestors. It doesn't matter if your family is unwilling to acknowledge their ancestors, but you must not be shameless. If you do something shameful outside, don't blame me, your great grandfather, for cleaning up the mess myself!"
