Chapter 731: Chapter 731 Someone Has to Deal With Them 1

"Mother-in-law..." Ye Ning heard this and immediately frowned, "You should not take a child’s words seriously."

Bai Tingfang sneered coldly, "There’s no need for you to instruct me on this matter. I have my own judgement. You go back and rest. Xiaobao, take your mother back."

It seemed she was reluctant to engage in further conversation, and after saying just those two sentences, she had Wang Sister and Xiaobao take her back.

Ye Ning was somewhat worried. This mother-in-law, whom she had only met a few days ago, had a vicious look in her eyes just now, and she didn’t seem like someone to be trifled with. If because of her this family became disharmonious, it would really be terrible.

However, Wang Sister seemed quite indifferent to the matter. Not only that, she seemed somewhat pleased, as if, finally, someone stood up for Ye Ning and the grievances she suffered in Bamboo Garden.

When evening arrived, Ou Mucen also came back. Upon hearing that Ou Mufeng’s family had come again, he was shocked, and at the same time, he looked very displeased.

"What exactly happened?"

"I do not know. The young mistress said that the master had invited them to come back for the New Year," replied Wang Sister, not daring to look into those frightening eyes.

Upon hearing this, Ou Mucen’s expression grew darker, and immediately, he wanted to go to Bamboo Garden to find the old master. But at this moment, Ye Ning in the bedroom suddenly poked her head out and called him, "Husband, come here for a moment."

Ou Mucen, hearing this, finally stopped in his tracks!

No matter what, it would be better not to let her know too much at this time, including the messy affairs of his family.

Thus, Ou Mucen turned back and reentered the bedroom, "What is it? Are you looking for your husband for something?"

The girl inside the bedroom was sitting at the dressing table, not quite sure what she was doing, her head lowered as she rummaged through a drawer.

Ou Mucen saw her and then walked over, watching as she searched left and right...

"Husband, where is my hair ribbon?"

"..."

Hair ribbon?

How would he know about that thing?

He walked over and began searching beside her, "Where did you put it when you went to sleep?"

"It was just on the table, but now I can’t find it. Can you help me see if it fell onto the floor?" She spoke softly there, not so much asking him to find a hair ribbon, but rather as if she was stalling him, preventing him from going to Bamboo Garden.

Ou Mucen caught on and his eyes involuntarily twitched; he really squatted down to look for it on the floor.

And indeed, near the leg of the dressing table, he found the hair ribbon, pure black with a smooth round pearl on it, simple in design yet not lacking in elegance and nobility.

It appeared that, unconsciously, the girl had started using hairbands to tie her hair...

He remembered the first time he saw her, with her neatly short hair, and then looking at the mirror now, he saw her hair had grown long enough to be tied with a hairband, and he was somewhat taken aback, "Your hair has grown so long."

Ye Ning smiled, "Was my hair very short before?"

Ou Mucen nodded, recalling her appearance from the past.

It had indeed been very short, so much so that the first time he saw her, he was quite displeased because he had always favored girls with long hair.

But that day, he met her, a woman who went to interview at his company, yet managed to lose her child in his building instead.

"Back then, you had no idea how bad it was. When we first met, you appeared in front of me unkempt and wild like a madwoman; I almost couldn’t tell you were a woman."
