Mu Lianrong’s words made Mu Ge seem to understand something.
For someone like Mu Xiong, with a family background like the Mu Family, to tolerate Mu Qingge’s antics outside, it was probably out of sheer helplessness. Because they would rather see a scoundrel who disgraces the Mu Family than a day when they see Mu Qingge’s corpse.
In the eyes of the world, the illustrious Mu Mansion, with its overwhelming power, lived such a stifling existence?
A sense of anger rose in Mu Ge’s heart.
For a moment, she couldn’t tell if this emotion came from herself, or from the body of Mu Qingge.
"Also, Xiyue is a good child. Auntie sees that she is sincere towards you. Even though you cannot marry her as your official wife, giving her the status of a noble concubine would be good. Think about it carefully." Mu Lianrong suddenly threw out a sentence.
"..." Mu Ge was stunned. What official wife? What noble concubine? Could it be that she has to marry and take concubines for the Mu Family to continue the lineage?
It was as if a divine thunder struck directly at Mu Ge. She roared in her heart: ’I can’t do it!’
Mu Lianrong didn’t stay long in Chi Yun Garden. After You He brought food, she left. Mu Ge ate a bit, took a refreshing bath, changed into dry clothes, and fell into a deep sleep before she could feel any change in her body.
In the morning, Mu Ge woke up to Hua Yue’s naturally charming voice.
Groggily sitting on a chair, allowing Hua Yue and You He to dress her and style her hair, Mu Ge was too exhausted to even want to open her eyes.
"Young Lord, would it be alright to wear this Nongmei Jade Crown carved with green jade today?" You He asked softly, holding a finely carved hair crown adorned with pale red rubies.
Mu Ge opened her eyes slightly, glanced at the crown in You He’s hand, and said indifferently: "Too gaudy." With those words, she randomly picked a hair crown from the ones laid out on the table and tossed it to You He: "Here, this one’s not bad."
With her head lowered, You He saw that Mu Ge had chosen an ordinary and unadorned Ancient Jade Hair Crown. As a close maid, she couldn’t even recall when it had appeared in Chi Yun Garden.
You He held the hair crown, surprised by Mu Ge’s choice.
Hua Yue also looked at the simple hair crown and quickly said: "Young Lord, every time you go to see Prince Rui, don’t you always dress up meticulously? This hair crown..."
Sensing the cold glint from Mu Ge’s eyes, You He hurriedly glared at Hua Yue, who stuck out her tongue and lowered her head, not daring to say more, focusing on smoothing out the wrinkles on Mu Ge’s garments.
A moment later, Mu Ge, dressed in a fiery red brocade robe like flames, left Chi Yun Garden. Atop her head was the plain hair crown that clashed with her vibrant outfit.
In the front courtyard, in the main hall of the Mu Mansion. Mu Xiong sat in the main seat with Prince Rui, Qin Jinhao, who had come to visit, sipping tea and chatting idly.
Qin Jinhao’s appearance didn’t surprise anyone. After all, he had mentioned yesterday upon leaving that he would come to the Mu Mansion, just not expected so soon.
If it weren’t for Qin Jinhao’s early morning visit, Mu Ge would probably still be lazing in bed.
