Transmigrating into Murong Fu, may you have many children and much happiness.

It was a beautiful, sunny day when Murong Fu listened to Wang Yuyan playing the zither for him in the music room.

Wang Yuyan spoke with great enthusiasm. Although Murong Fu didn't understand much, he still found it pleasant to listen to. He closed his eyes, shook his head, and pretended to be engrossed.

Suddenly, Wang Yuyan's maid, Youcao, came running by in a hurry.

Wang Yuyan frowned and said:

"Yucao, what's wrong?"

Could it be that my mom is back?

Youcao, who had been running so fast that she was out of breath, stopped and bent over to catch her breath, but she had no strength left to speak.

He could only nod repeatedly, pointing towards the port outside the gate.

Wang Yuyan knew that her worst fears had come true, and she immediately stood up, pacing anxiously in circles.

Murong Fu pulled Wang Yuyan, who was pacing around in circles, into his arms and whispered in her ear:

"Cousin, I'm going to pick up your aunt. After I've calmed her down, I'll propose marriage. Don't worry, there won't be any problems."

Looking at her cousin, Wang Yuyan immediately felt a sense of security. This man had given her a strong sense of security since childhood, and this sense of security had only intensified over the past month.

Then, under Wang Yuyan's somewhat complicated gaze, Murong Fu calmly strode towards the gate.

......

When they arrived at the dock, Murong Fu was surrounded by maids and old women.

All the servants in the manor came here to greet Li Qingluo, which shows that his aunt is still very important to them.

Indeed, all the servants at Mantuo Manor were utterly loyal to Li Qingluo, even willing to die for her.

But what Murong Fu didn't know was that there certainly weren't so many people here to greet him on ordinary days, after all, there were many mundane affairs and chores on the estate.

But now almost everyone has arrived, and the culprit is none other than Murong Fu!

During these days, he ate and slept at Mantuo Villa, and when he gave orders to them, he acted like the master of the house.

The conflict between Li Qingluo and Murong Fu's mother, Madam Wang, was common knowledge throughout Mantuo Manor. To them, this incomparably noble lady was the subject of Madam Wang's fabricated rumors of infidelity and that Wang Yuyan was not of the Wang family bloodline?!

This was something they couldn't tolerate. Some of the mothers-in-law even wanted to dig up Wang's grave and scatter her ashes into Taihu Lake to cure her of her wickedness!

Unexpectedly, Wang's son, Murong Xiaozei, who looked handsome, was also a lawless thief!

He actually took advantage of the lady's absence to steal her affections and make indecent advances towards her!

When Granny Yan and Granny Ping met in private, they shouted themselves hoarse, tears streaming down their faces, and even wanted to fight this little thief Murong to the death.

Seeing the young lady's radiant face, already captivated by Murong's magic, and remembering Murong Fu's formidable martial arts skills, they could only encourage each other.

Patience!

I wonder if Madam received the carrier pigeons that were released a few days ago?

But the old women in the village could only comfort each other, waiting for the lady to return...

When Li Qingluo didn't return, they longed for her day and night.

Now that Li Qingluo has returned, their fear has only intensified.

They watched the cruise ship speed towards them, then slow down and dock. The closer the ship got, the heavier their hearts felt. Now, when Li Qingluo came out of the cabin and glanced at them on the dock, they felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

If it weren't for Murong Fu leisurely cracking melon seeds he'd somehow produced to soothe their low blood pressure, several of them might have collapsed before Li Qingluo even disembarked.

At this moment, Murong Fu was completely oblivious to the murderous glares directed at Granny Ping, Granny Yan, and the others behind him.

Instead, they were seriously admiring the flower boat.

"My aunt truly lives up to her reputation as a wealthy woman from Suzhou; this boat is really nice. Even my Canhe Village doesn't have one!"

The ship is wide and long, so it must be very stable. The bow is painted with flowers, and you can recognize them at a glance as camellias, also known as datura.

Then, a group of maids dressed in blue and holding swords disembarked one by one and lined up on both sides of the dock.

The tinkling of jade pendants and the fragrance of flowers filled the air.

Then Madam Wang slowly disembarked, looking at Murong Fu, who was grinning and walking towards her, with an unfriendly expression.

"Your nephew warmly welcomes your aunt home!"

Murong Fu bowed respectfully, but Madam Wang's face remained cold, and she said in a low voice:

"Fu Guan, what are you doing at my Mantuo Manor? This place is all women; it's inconvenient for men to come here."

"Auntie, you're joking. We're really relatives. How could I be like a regular man?"

Besides, didn't you bring back some men too?

At that moment, maids were escorting two men with their hands bound behind their backs. One of the men had a handsome face and wore a brocade robe. The other, though dressed in plain clothes, was exceptionally handsome, only about 40-50% less so than Murong Fu.

"These are the sinners I brought back. They'll probably turn into fertilizer in no time. How can they be considered human?"

Murong Fu curled his lip, thinking to himself:

Thankfully, Yu Yan isn't like you.

Then I thought of Yu Yan's biological father, the dashing Prince Duan, who had a square face.

Fortunately, he doesn't resemble him.

"Aunt, please stop killing people in your own home. The once peaceful Mantuo Manor is now turning into a haunted house."

Living in a grave for a long time, burdened with the sins of killing, how can one find peace?

Aunt, your complexion looks pale, your cheekbones are dark, and there are dark blue vertical lines on your right fingernails. Have you been suffering from insomnia and nightmares lately, along with a bitter taste in your mouth, dry throat, and significant hair loss?

After acquiring master-level medical skills, Murong Fu had mastered the methods of observation, listening, questioning, and palpation. Just by looking at Madam Wang's face and understanding her personality, he knew that she was currently suffering from liver qi stagnation and endocrine imbalance.

Lady Wang, unaware of Murong Fu's medical skills, was alarmed by the fact that his words seemed to perfectly describe her condition. This journey took her to Dali, her lover's hometown, a place known for its kind people and reverence for gods and Buddhas. She wondered if her past killings had offended the Bodhisattva...

Before Li Qingluo could finish her thought, Murong Fu continued, "Aunt, let's stop before disaster strikes."

Why don't I hand those two over to my son-in-law to deal with, and take them with me when I leave?

My nephew has something important to discuss with his aunt. Let's go inside and talk it over.

Li Qingluo was in a state of confusion and had no clue what to do. She neither shook her head nor nodded, but simply walked into the manor.

The maidservant with the sword followed behind, and the two unfortunate men were naturally escorted forward as well.

During this time, Madam Wang met the maids and old women in the manor. The two old women had just met Li Qingluo but did not immediately question Murong Fu, presumably because the carrier pigeon had not been delivered.

So they all knelt down together.

"Madam, this old servant is guilty!"

Li Qingluo was naturally very puzzled and was about to ask a question when Murong Fu interrupted her:

"Aunt, let's go inside and talk business. I know what they did wrong, but it's nothing serious."

Although Li Qingluo disliked Murong Fu, his words still carried some weight, so she didn't say much and the group went into the manor.

Upon entering the hall, before the maids could even serve tea, Murong Fu, fanning himself with a paper fan, addressed Madam Wang sternly:

"Aunt, I've come to your door today because I have something very important to discuss."

They've come specifically to propose marriage!
