The Capitalist’s Spoiled Young Master? Perfect to Take Home as a Husband Chapter 160

"What did you say?" Mu Shian was so taken aback by the words that he couldn't react for a mont.

"They ca on a donkey cart, apparently bringing a lot of things, and went straight to your house," Song Nianchu repeated.

Mu Shian's face instantly darkened. He didn't even finish his al, standing up and heading straight for the courtyard gate.

Seeing the cold aura radiating from him, Song Nianchu wondered if telling him was a good idea or not.

Hearing that Mu Jingi had returned, Mu Haoxuan and Mu Yongnian quickly followed suit.

After a mont of thought, Song Nianchu also stepped out.

Outside the Mu family's door, Mu Jingi was still knocking.

"Mom, Dad, I know I was wrong. I ca back today just to apologize to you. Please open the door," Mu Jingi's voice grew increasingly hoarse.

"Mom, Dad, if you don't forgive , I'll kneel here and won't get up until you co out to see ." Looking at the tightly shut door, Mu Jingi finally gritted her teeth and dropped to her knees.

Mu Shian rushed back just in ti to see this scene, his thin lips pressed into a tight line.

"Mu Jingi, what are you doing here?" Mu Shian said through gritted teeth.

"Big brother, I'm begging for Mom and Dad's forgiveness. Please help tell them that I truly know I was wrong." Mu Jingi's eyes welled with tears, looking the picture of grievance.

"You know you were wrong? Bringing him to our door ans you know you were wrong?" Mu Shian glanced at Yang Dafu standing nearby.

"Brother-in-law, I..." Yang Dafu tried to explain himself, but Mu Shian shot him a glaring look.

"Who is your brother-in-law!"

The words on the tip of Yang Dafu's tongue imdiately halted, a hard-to-conceal darkness flashing in the depths of his eyes.

He thought to himself that if he didn't need a favor from them, he would have punched this ungrateful bastard right in the face.

"Brother, Dafu is my husband now. What's wrong with him calling you brother-in-law?" Mu Jingi spoke up.

"Fine, he's not wrong. Now both of you get the hell out of here!" Mu Shian tried hard to suppress his emotions.

"I ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‍didn't co to see you. I ca to see Mom and Dad. If they don't co out, I won't leave." Mu Jingi knelt up straight, showing no intention of leaving.

anwhile, many people had noticed the commotion.

In an era with little entertainnt, gossip like this was highly welcod. Not to ntion, Yang Dafu had just paraded through the village entrance with a donkey cart full of goods, and now everyone wanted to see what would happen next.

Seeing the growing crowd, Mu Jingi knelt even straighter. She wanted these people to see how her family bullied their own daughter.

"Mom, Dad, I know you only like my eldest brother and consider him the heir to the Mu family, so you look down on the partner I chose for myself. But given our family's current situation, the fact that Dafu is willing to marry ans he thinks highly of us. I just want to survive," Mu Jingi cried, tears streaming down her face.

Hearing her words, the bystanders' eyes filled with curiosity.

"What does the Mu family's girl an by that?" soone whispered.

"It sounds like Accountant Mu and his wife look down on her?"

"No way, I think Accountant Mu is a pretty good person."

"Who knows, she is just a daughter after all." Most of the villagers trusted Mu Deyi, but the newly arrived refugees weren't familiar with them. Naturally, they had no emotional attachnt and only made assumptions based on common sense.

Perhaps hearing so voices speaking up for her, Mu Jingi looked up at Yang Dafu beside her.

"Dafu, kneel down too and properly apologize to my parents."

Yang Dafu naturally didn't want to kneel, but with so many people watching, if he didn't, it would seem insincere.

Moreover, if they both knelt together in front of such a large crowd, no matter how cruel Mu Deyi was, he couldn't hide in the house forever.

Thinking this, Yang Dafu also dropped to his knees.

"Mom, Dad, it's all my fault. I was wrong not to co and formally propose earlier. I ca specifically to apologize today. I can swear to you right here that I will treat Jingi well in the future and absolutely won't let her suffer the slightest grievance. Although we had so misunderstandings before, don't parents just want their children to have a good ho? Co out and see, Jingi is really doing very well." Yang Dafu's words directly backed Mu Deyi into a corner.

"Indeed, this girl is wearing new clothes, has a new flower in her hair, and looks very healthy. It's obvious she hasn't been doing hard labor," the refugees nodded in agreent.

"Yeah, the most important thing for a woman is to find a good ho. Even if there were misunderstandings, seeing their daughter doing so well should calm their anger."

"I thought Accountant Mu was a good guy before, but now he seems just average."

"..."

Mu Shian was so angry that his hands, hanging by his sides, clenched into fists. He stepped forward, ready to drive these two shaless people away.

But Yang Dafu stood up first, blocking Mu Jingi.

"Brother-in-law, are you trying to hit Jingi in front of all these people? I don't know what kind of life she lived at ho, but since she married , I won't let her suffer the slightest harm." Yang Dafu openly threw dirty water on Mu Shian.

Weren't they highly respected?

Then he would drag them down bit by bit. He didn't believe that everyone in the village was completely united with them.

"No way? A brother hitting his sister?" the refugees asked in surprise.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. He's the most famous scoundrel for miles around; there's not a word of truth in his mouth. Comrade Mu is gentle and refined, with a top-notch temper. I've never seen him get angry with anyone. How could he possibly hit his own sister?" a villager quickly spoke up.

"Exactly. Back then, this shaless bastard insisted on snatching soone else's sister. Mu Shian was willing to marry into another family just to protect his sister, but in the end, these two still got together. What a ss," the villagers explained to the refugees.

"Really? Then this sister is too ungrateful," the tide of public opinion imdiately shifted back to Mu Shian.

"Right? Now the couple is kneeling here, intentionally trying to get people to curse her parents behind their backs. I see this Mu girl is not an easy one to deal with either."

"That's really inappropriate."

"..."

Kneeling on the ground, Mu Jingi listened to the whispers all around, her teeth nearly breaking from grinding them.

Her knees hurt from kneeling, and she had finally managed to get so people on her side, only for them to be swayed back with just a few words.

Were these people brainless? Did they just believe whatever others said?

"Yang Dafu, what are you trying to do?" Song Nianchu walked over from a distance and saw Yang Dafu confronting Mu Shian. Thinking he was going to attack Mu Shian, she hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of him.
