Naturally, breakfast is served together.

Breakfast should not be greasy, and everything should be light.

A stack of eight-treasure pickles, a stack of long spring rolls, a stack of scallion egg pancakes, and a steamer-sized steamed bun with white and soft texture. Served with green stem rice porridge, it is surprisingly delicious.

Grandma Ren’s craftsmanship is beyond praise.

She laughed: "There's not enough kitchen left."

Mu Hansheng, who ate five of them in one go, said: "My mother-in-law made these buns the most to my liking. I have been thinking about them so hard these years."

Grandma Ren glared at him and said, "If you are greedy, just come and find me again."

Mu Hansheng was extremely hesitant, put down his wooden chopsticks, and his smile faded a little. He felt uncomfortable looking at Granny Ren with gray hair and an old face.

He knew very well that at Granny Ren's age, she would only see her once less. If he was not in Lin'an except for major changes, he might not even be able to see her for the last time.

"If not, will you go back with me?"

He also used the honorific title, just like Gu Huaizhi.

Ruan Zhen lowered her head and drank the porridge, but she was absent-minded.

What is Granny Ren’s identity?

Hearing this, the mother-in-law's smile disappeared.

"No, I'm old and can't walk anymore."

Mu Hansheng frowned: "But..."

Granny Ren smiled: "Master, please don't embarrass me. It's quiet here, which is good."

The only regret is that I will never see the girl again.

As she gets older, she becomes increasingly powerless.

Sometimes I think about it, I might as well just go like this. Once I close my eyes, I might still be able to see the girl.

Mu Hansheng was about to say something but stopped. However, considering Ruan Zhen's presence, it was inconvenient to say more.

Gu Huaizhi lowered his eyes, put down his wooden chopsticks, and turned his head to look at Ruan Zhen, who was slightly startled.

"What's wrong?"

The man came closer and pulled Ruan Zhen out of his thoughts with one word.

She quickly wiped her mouth with a handkerchief: "It's almost enough."

Gu Huaizhi nodded to Mu Hansheng, and then walked out with Ruan Zhen.

Admittedly, taking Grandma Ren back was what he wanted to do.

When Ruan Zhen crossed the threshold, she heard Mu Hansheng lower his voice and said: "The world is so big, you will find it eventually. Mother-in-law, please come back with me so that you can take care of me."

Granny Ren was obviously stimulated by this sentence: "Xun? There has been no news for so many years, or it is all false news. Don't deceive yourself, sir. If the girl is gone, she is gone."

Ruan Zhen pursed her lips and followed Gu Huaizhi. She accidentally stepped on the hem of her skirt, and she exclaimed and fell forward.

But someone stopped him and helped him up.

Gu Huaizhi's dark eyes darkened.

“Watch the road carefully!”

Ruan Zhen couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. The woman supported the man's chest with her bare hands. She raised her eyes, curved her lips and smiled, and was about to thank her and say a few words that Gu Huaizhi liked to hear. She heard the man's faint tone.

"You really did everything you could to get my attention."

Ruan Zhen was silent for a moment: "I didn't stand firm."

She slowly withdrew her hand. Just as she was about to explain, she heard Gu Huaizhi chuckle in a very good mood.

The man narrowed his eyes and clasped Ruan Zhen's hand a little harder, forcing her to fall completely into his arms. "Can't stand still? Or are you complaining that I asked for too much yesterday?"

Ruan Zhen:!!!

How can you say this?

Her heart skipped a beat. She could only say dryly: "Then I admit it."

She said it very hard: "I just threw myself into my arms."

Gu Huaizhi raised his chin clearly: "You are becoming more and more capable."

Ruan Zhen:..."Yeah."

inside the house

Grandma Ren's words made Mu Hansheng's eyes turn red. The light in his eyes became darker and darker until it disappeared.

He didn't know whether to refute Granny Ren or to comfort himself. He just murmured: "No, how is it possible?"

Seeing him like this, Grandma Ren felt a dull pain in her heart.

"It was freezing cold. You and I know the situation best. We were abandoned in the deep mountains and forests. Not only was she a cold girl, she didn't even have enough food to eat! How could she survive? How could she survive!"

As she spoke, she became so emotional that her vision went dark and she almost fainted.

She was breathing heavily.

It is impossible to imagine the situation of a girl being eaten by a wild beast.

The old face was dull and dull.

"After searching for so many years, is there still a need to continue searching?"

"From that year on, every time when a girl was born, I would go to Fanshan Temple to bow and kowtow three times, but the fortune-telling I asked for was not what I wanted."

"After calculation, the girl should be as old as the imperial concubine. Things are different and people are different. Even if the girl is still alive and well, she is still worthy of being married to someone. If you take a step back, what will happen if you find her? Tell her that she is

An abandoned baby who is forced to have no choice but to be abandoned?"

Mu Hansheng's face turned pale.

He really wanted to stop Granny Ren's words, but he was powerless and couldn't find the words to refute.

Yes, they don't want Jiao Jiao first. If Jiao Jiao is really alive, he should hate them.

Isn't it?

Granny Ren sighed: "Young Master asked me to go back, how can I go back? What shame do I have to go see Madam again?"

She was originally a maid in the palace who took care of the prince's daily life and food. She was highly regarded by the late emperor and was given to the noble Jiang family. She was also valued by the Jiang family. Jiang Yi married into the Mu family and took her with her.

When she gave birth to a girl, my wife suffered from severe bleeding, which caused her body and bones to deteriorate.

Where can I find the energy to take care of girls?

When the girl gets older, although the wife is reluctant to part with her, she can only bear the pain and let the old lady take her back to her hometown to raise her.

Jiang Yi couldn't let go, so she called her to follow her, and even gave her numerous instructions to take good care of the girl.

While coughing, she said: "Although the old lady is Jiao Jiao's direct grandmother, she is old after all, and I feel uneasy. I just hate that my body is not living up to expectations. Now that Jiao Jiao is gone, I don't know if I will see him next time."

When will I ask my mother-in-law to help me take care of it? You are the only one I can trust most. You must be absolutely careful."

Completely comprehensive?

These words are so ridiculous.

Grandma Ren didn't dare to think about it anymore.

She just looked at Mu Hansheng who was motionless.

"The old lady passed away so suddenly. Could it be that she was stimulated by this incident? The General's Mansion held another funeral immediately afterwards."

"That matter has been concealed until now, and Madam still doesn't know about it."

The color on Mu Hansheng's face disappeared completely.

Granny Ren closed her eyes: "Young master, if you want to look for it, then keep looking. After all... it's just a thought."

Mu Hansheng hid the sadness in his eyes, and there was a hint of haggard between his brows.

He was silent for a long time.

He obviously still remembered that the old lady came in a hurry and slapped Mu Youde in the face.

He lost all his previous demeanor: "I asked you to take care of Jiaojiao, and that's how you took care of him! What a father! How can you bear it?"

"Don't talk to me about the righteousness of the family and the country! My old lady knows that as soon as I handed the child over to you, you lost her? Lost her!"
