Chapter 200 Jokes

Mu Tianen followed his mother back to the living room.
Wen Jia could see her youngest daughter's lost and worried expression, so she asked the maid to bring some fruits and sweet milk, and held Mu Tianen's hand. "Be good, don't worry, Grandmother is fine. Your master has come to check on her. She just needs some rest."
Mu Tianen nodded obediently, looked up at her mother, and squeezed her hand. "Mommy, were you scared?"
Mu Tianen felt guilty because she was not there when the accident happened.
With his other hand, Wen Jia gently stroked his daughter's cheek and looked at her attentively, saying, "As long as you and your siblings are safe, Mommy and Daddy won't be scared."
Mu Tian'en reached out and hugged his mother, feeling very warm and relieved, as if all his tiredness had dissipated.
Wenjia gently patted her back.
The maid came in with the food.
Wenjia released Muxuan, saying with a smile, "You must be hungry, go ahead and eat something. We'll have dinner when your dad and the others come back."
"Understood."
Mu Tianen took the milk handed over by his mother.
After eating, Mu Tianen said, "Mommy, where is Grandpa?"
Wen Jia's face darkened, "He is in the guest room, he is injured and sick, and your grandma wants a divorce."
Mu Tianen went back to his room to wash up and change clothes after eating some food, then his father and brother came back.
When he saw his little daughter, Mu Zongwen quickly went up to her and reached out to rub her head, saying, "It's good that you're back."
Mu Tianen could see the worry and nervousness in his father's eyes, so he linked his arm with his, and called out in a coquettish tone, "Daddy."
Mu Tianheng looked at her with envy, "Tianen, you haven't called me yet."
Upon hearing this, Mu Tianen looked towards his elder brother and sweetly called out, "Brother."
Wen Jia walked over from the direction of the kitchen and chuckled upon seeing the situation, "Alright, everyone go wash your hands and have dinner. Ayu won't be coming back for dinner."
They also had dinner together, but the eldest family had already gone out early in the morning and didn't call back, so Wen Jia didn't prepare.
After eating, the maid came over and said, "Madam is awake."
The maid only felt a gust of wind blowing by, and then saw that Liu Hai was flying and had already jumped onto the middle of the stairs, disappearing at the staircase leading to the second floor in the blink of an eye.
Mu Zongwen and the other two were also surprised and witnessed the speed of lightness technique.
Wen Jia quickly regained her composure, "You guys go ahead, I'll go to the kitchen to check if the soup is ready."
Arriving in the room, they saw Mu Tianen seriously taking the pulse of Zhao Xiuru.
And Zhao Xiuru looked at her with a smiling and loving expression. She was already worried about the safety of her granddaughter, and now that she had returned, she felt relieved.
Mu Zongwen and his son stood quietly.
Soon, Mu Tianen's serious expression disappeared and he let out a sigh of relief. "Grandma, from today onwards, I will be responsible for your health. You must obediently drink the medicine I prepare for you and meditate with me in the morning."
"Okay, we'll all listen to Tian'en." Zhao Xiuru accepted with a gentle smile.
"Despite being the most unfamiliar granddaughter, she is now the most considerate."
"Zhao Xiuru then turned to the two people standing behind her and, feeling relieved, relaxed the creases on her brow. 'Tianyu hasn't returned yet?'"
Mu Tianheng answered, "Well, she has to work overtime."
"She hasn't brought back the agreement yet?"
"Not yet," Mu Zongwen answered.
Zhao Xiuru grabbed Mu Tianen's hand and turned her gaze to her younger son, "What about your brother?"
Mu Zongwen said, "He hasn't come back yet."
"Tell him to come back and see me."
"Okay."
At this moment, Wen Jia came in carrying a tray and put it on the bedside table. "Mom, let's eat first."
Mu Zongwen and Mu Tianheng went out.
Mu Tianen picked up the bowl carefully and fed Zhao Xiuru.
Around ten o'clock at night, Mu Tianyu came back, followed by the Mu Zongqiao family.
The butler immediately came forward, "Young Master, the Madam is waiting for you."
Mu Zongqiao was stunned when he heard the words and exchanged a glance with his wife, Liu Xianna, before going.
Mu Tianyu heard this as he went upstairs, but did not stop.
I don't know what Mu Zongqiao said to Zhao Xiuru in the room, but when he left, his expression was gloomy and he slammed the door.
Zhao Xiuru in the room was not scared, perhaps because she had experienced more violent scenes, but disappointment was inevitable.
The next day was the weekend and Mu Tianyu did not work overtime at the law firm.
Zhao Xiuru also left the room with Mu Tian'en's support.
At the dining table, everyone was present except for Mu Qing, who was still bedridden. The main seat was empty.
After Zhao Xiuru put down her chopsticks, her expression was indifferent. "Tianyu, did you bring back the agreement?"
Mu Tianyu nodded, "In my study."
"Hmm, let your father give it to him."
The Mu family's faces were pale, and they had no appetite, almost putting down their chopsticks.
Last night, Mu Zongqiao went to Zhao Xiuru's room, and they discussed this matter. Mu Zongwen also mentioned it when he went back.
Everyone put down their chopsticks.
"Got it, Grandma."
"And one more thing," Zhao Xiuru took a deep breath, raised her eyelashes, and said firmly, "I'm moving out today."
Zhao Xiuru has made a decision and does not allow herself any chance to retreat with the word "want".
Mu Zongqiao frowned and pleaded, "Mom, think it through. Divorce is not good for the Mu family now, and it is also unnecessary."
"Yes, Mom," Liu Xianna also persuaded, "It will make a lot of people laugh."
Mu Tianmin's face was also hard to express, but he didn't say anything.
Since last night, or maybe from the beginning, Zhao Xiuru knew that her eldest son disapproved.
The eldest son has a personality similar to his husband's, selfish and always prioritizes his own interests.
When she told him last night that she wanted a divorce, the first question the eldest son asked was how the assets would be divided.
It's ironic.
Both sons were raised by her, and she put in the same effort for both.
One lived together for decades but only cared about his own interests, while the other occasionally came back to visit but understood and supported her choices.
Zhao Xiuru's heart feels a little chilly.
"I have already made up my mind, no need for further words."
Mu Zongqiao wanted to say something, but Mu Zongwen spoke first, "Mom, we will move out with you, to our place."
Zhao Xiuru slightly pulled the corners of her mouth, "Okay."
She wants a quiet life in her remaining years, and only wants her children and grandchildren to be safe and happy.
The eldest son does not support her, only the youngest son does.
Mu Zongqiao slapped his hands on the table and stood up, "Mom, are you crazy? Or have you been bewitched?"
The meaning of the intentions is obvious.
Mu Zongqiao's gaze was filled with skepticism and malice as he looked at his younger brother's family.
Mu Zongwen did not speak, and Zhao Xiuru spoke first, "This decision is the most clear-minded decision I have made in the past few decades. I will leave with nothing from the Mu family, so you don't have to worry about me taking away any of your assets."
"As for myself, I already have plans."
"Mom, what do you mean?" Mu Zongqiao became anxious.
His mother came from a scholarly family, and he had heard from his grandmother that when his mother got married, she brought along a large collection of valuable calligraphy and paintings.
But his mother rarely brings them out these years, he only knows they are kept in the safe deposit box.
Zhao Xiuru raised her eyes and looked at her eldest son, cold and indifferent, "I have written a will. After I die, you will know how I distribute them."
As the words fell, Zhao Xiuru stood up and went upstairs. Mu Tianen quickly got up to support her.
Mu Zongqiao felt a hint of embarrassment and anger being exposed, but he also glared at Mu Zongwen and asked in a stern voice, "Mu Zongwen, did you say something to mom?"
Mu Zongwen completely disregarded his older brother's anger, saying, "You better mind your own business and don't think I don't know who you met and what you did these past two days."
Mu Zongwen just believed that it was unnecessary to exterminate his only brother, even though their mother was disappointed in him, and he didn't want the brothers to turn against each other.
Mu Zongqiao, feeling guilty and avoiding eye contact, feared that if he continued to meet his brother's gaze, all the secrets buried deep within him would be exposed.
He thought his younger brother had been too worried about their mother in the past few days to pay attention to him.
Liu Xianna has become more shameless, and thinks that the gentleman Mu Zongwen would not curse at women. "Ah Wen, what are you talking about? We haven't done anything, don't falsely accuse us. Also, we're just worried that Mom acted impulsively and will regret it later."
"Enough, what is in your hands now, I won't ask for it back. As for anything else, don't even think about it, don't push your luck."
Without giving them a chance to retort, Mu Zongwen got up and left.
Mu Tianheng and Mu Tianyu, the two siblings, sat still.
Mu Tianheng looked at Mu Zongqiao with an indifferent and cold gaze, "Since my father said no, then I will bear the loss. But you all must leave Mu's family."
Even now, even if they are subsidiaries, he doesn't want them to continue to stay. If they continue to stay, they will only become more greedy and unrestrained.
Mu Zongqiao's face changed dramatically, "Mu Tianheng, I am your elder. You have no right to make me leave."
"If you two father and son don't leave Mu's, then wait for my lawyer's letter."
Mu Tianyu's expression was domineering as he finished speaking and left.
"Mu Tianheng smirked, his sister sometimes even more handsome than him, 'You should know that Tianyu always keeps his word.'"
The Mu family, including Mu Zongqiao, looked lifeless.
They could question anyone's words, except for Mu Tianyu's.
Five minutes later, Mu Zongwen arrived in the guest room with the divorce agreement given by his eldest daughter.
Mu Qing couldn't fall asleep at all, feeling pain all over his body. Hearing the sound of the door opening, he opened his eyes and in the haze, could only make out the silhouette and guessed, "A Wen?"
"It's me." Mu Zongwen pulled a chair and placed the agreement on the bedside table.
"Alvin, I'm in so much pain, please call a doctor to give me a painkiller injection, I can't stand it anymore."
Muqing has never experienced any hardships since he was little, and this pain is literally taking half of his life away.
After Mu Qing finished speaking these words with all his strength, his already pale face turned even whiter, and cold sweat poured out.
Mu Zongwen looked at him without feeling any pity or anxiety in his heart. "Hmm."
"I came here to tell you something. This is the divorce agreement that Mom asked Tianyu to prepare. Mom will leave with nothing, even though she married into this family. She is giving up all the properties and other company shares that Great-grandfather left for her. Let her go."
At this moment, Mu Qing doubted whether he was experiencing auditory hallucinations because of the pain. He had never thought that his wife, who doted on him, would bring up such a thing.
Grimacing in pain, Mu Qing asked, "What did you say?"
Mu Zongwen got up and said lightly, "I will call the doctor, and today our family will move back with mom."
As he watched his second son walk away without looking back, Mu Qing's eyes moistened, whether it was because of the pain all over his body or because of regret.
