"Qiao Qiao, do you really have a way to cure Grandmother's chronic illness?" the old lady quickly asked, "Just by eating medicated meals?"
Qiao Mu nodded, "Grandmother, would you like to try?"
"Yes, yes, yes, of course. It's such a simple thing as eating medicated meals, why wouldn't I try?" Old Madam Mu smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Besides, my little granddaughter says she has a way, so it must be true."
Qiao Mu nodded.
The young couple accompanied the old lady for some dinner. Today, the old lady had a great appetite and ate a lot, and the dining table was filled with laughter.
Although adult Qiao Qiao maintained a poker face throughout, for some reason, the old lady found the little one's cold expression inexplicably adorable.
"Master, Master, what's wrong with you?..." The voice of a nanny guarding the door suddenly rang out.
Then, the nanny seemed to be pushed aside, hitting something and crying out in pain.
The room door was forcefully pushed open, and Mu Jingfeng stood at the entrance, full of rage. He strode in and first bowed to Old Madam Mu, "Mother."
Then he turned his head and glared at Qiao Mu, "Where's the child!"
"You scoundrel, you've only been back for less than half a day, and you're already acting so recklessly!"
Old Madam Mu angrily slammed the table, "What are you doing? Bursting in and yelling like that, do you still have any respect for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
When Mu Jingfeng found his beloved concubine in the Magnolia Courtyard, he saw that her cheeks were swollen and festering from being slapped, and his mind went blank.
Then he heard Yuan Qiong'er crying and complaining that the Crown Princess had snatched her child and hit her without distinguishing right from wrong. Mu Jingfeng became even more furious upon hearing this.
This scoundrel, did she want to infuriate her father to death as soon as she returned?
Now, hearing the old lady's scolding, he couldn't help but inwardly flinch and quickly turned his eyes to Mo Lian, who was sitting at the table with an unusually cold and angry expression.
Seeing Crown Prince Mo's impending outburst, Mu Jingfeng's heart suddenly sank.
But he still couldn't help but clench his fists and say, "Mother, I'm here to pick up Little Ba. Qiong'er is very worried about her daughter. The Crown Princess brought Little Ba here to you out of mischief..."
"Little Ba will stay with me for a while from now on." Old Madam Mu calmly interrupted Mu Jingfeng's words.
As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Yuan Qiong'er's expression change drastically, but even Mu Jingfeng couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in his eyes.
"Old Madam!" Yuan Qiong'er called out with a tearful voice.
The old lady shot a cold glance at her, "My mind is made up, don't say another word. If Little Ba follows someone like you, who is not presentable, how will her life be in the future?"
Yuan Qiong'er stared wide-eyed in shock.
Mu Jingfeng, even more suffocated with anger, yelled at Qiao Mu, "Now you're happy! Causing trouble as soon as you're back!"
"Shut up." Mo Lian slammed the table and stood up, his eyes coldly turning to Mu Jingfeng, "Mu Jingfeng, try cursing my wife one more time!"
"It's my decision to raise Little Ba by my side." Old Madam Mu said coldly, looking at Mu Jingfeng, "If you have an opinion, go talk to your father."
Qiao Mu bowed, "Grandmother, we'll take our leave now."
Staying with the scumbag Mu for one more second felt like her breathing would stop.
Qiao Mu pulled Mo Lian out the door and met Mu Qingya, who had rushed over.
Qiao Mu gave Mu Qingya a meaningful look, "Madam Mu, such good tactics."
