"How did it turn into a fight? Was anyone injured?" Grandma Mu asked quickly upon hearing that An Ran had gotten into a fight.
"Just so surface wounds, but fortunately, Wenxuan and I happened to pass by," Mu Wanxin recounted the events of yesterday to her family once more.
Grandma Mu listened, then angrily slapped the table, "This is outrageous! That Chen Family girl seed so quiet and demure, how could she team up with others to bully Ran? She even tried to cut Ran’s face with a knife."
"Isn’t it just because your grandson attracts too much trouble." After her snarky remark, Mu Wanxin continued eating her bun.
"So, Xingfeng thinks An Ran is too weak and wants to use the Guard Team’s training regin to toughen her up to prevent her from losing in case of a fight next ti?" He Yushu suddenly felt that her proud son was really sothing else.
"Yes, that’s exactly what my brother said at the ti."
"Xingfeng is truly sothing. An Ran is just a little girl, how could she withstand the Guard Team’s training? It’s clearly the Chen Family girl’s fault, how can we bla Ran for being too weak to fight back? How could a little girl possibly win against two people? Also, what are those servants and bodyguards at ho even doing? No, I have to call him. If this keeps up, he’ll scare Ran away."
She had waited for so many years to finally have such a good granddaughter-in-law. She couldn’t let her get scared away.
"Nonsense," Old Mr. Mu snorted coldly from the side.
"What’s nonsense? Have you ever heard of anyone needing to know how to fight to get married?" Grandma Mu asked discontentedly.
At this point, Mu Zhenzong, who had been reading the newspaper, put it down and persuaded, "Mom, don’t interfere with this. Xingfeng has his own sense of propriety. He has his reasons for doing this."
"His reasons? What reasons could he possibly have?" Grandma Mu said dismissively.
"Mom, you forgot what Xingfeng does for a living?" Mu Zhenzong patiently explained to Grandma Mu, "Xingfeng is a guard, and when An Ran marries into our family, she will be the family mber of a guard. Given Xingfeng’s dangerous job, you should understand the risks for his family. He’s taking this opportunity to train An Ran so that she can have so self-defense skills in case of future dangers."
Grandma Mu fell silent upon hearing Mu Zhenzong’s words, her eyes even reddening. As a forr soldier’s wife, she knew the dangers all too well. When Old Mr. Mu was a prominent military figure in his youth, she herself had been captured by spies and nearly lost her life to force Old Mr. Mu to surrender.
Seeing this, He Yushu quickly comforted the old lady, "Mom, don’t worry. We can all see how well Xingfeng treats that girl. He’ll be careful, and as for An Ran, when she marries into our family, we will cherish her even more."
Grandma Mu nodded repeatedly, "That poor girl has had a tough life. From what Xingfeng says, she lost her parents when she was young, and her foster parents didn’t treat her well. Now she has to beco the wife of a guard. I’m not saying being a guard’s wife is bad, just... sigh, in the future, you all must treat her well, don’t let her suffer any grievances. Otherwise, I won’t stand for it."
"Understood, Mom. So, should I still call him?" He Yushu asked.
