Chapter 963: Chapter 965: Generous Gift (6)

The Old Madame gave the jewelry to Fei’er and, after a few more instructions, rose to take her leave.

As they were leaving, Lady Mu Bai politely extended an invitation to the Mu family. In five days, it would be the Old Madame’s seventieth birthday, and the Mu family was invited to join the celebration at Duke Li Guo’s Mansion. Unaware of the delicate relations between the Great House of Mu and Cai Wei’s family, Lady Mu Bai sincerely invited them as well.

The family of the Great House immediately seized the opportunity, nodding their heads in agreement as if pecking rice, and vowed they would certainly arrive on time in five days!

During the brief visit, the family of the Great House unspokenly agreed; Mu Zhongli’s family was no longer the same as before. Following them would surely be no mistake; from now on, they resolved to cling to their household, determined to stay even if it meant demeaning themselves and showing no shame!

After sending off Duke Li Guo’s wife and the officials from the Ministry of Works, the Mu Zhongqing couple felt a mix of emotions. They were shocked that the Emperor and Empress had allowed Cai Wei to become the Main Consort of Prince Qin, but also very relieved by the high regard Prince Qin had for her. They also believed that Prince Qin must have made great efforts for this to happen, and were genuinely happy that Fei’er was marrying into a good family!

The Great House family also went to see off the guests, and after the two Madams had left, Mu Zhongli put on a smile and began to flatter Cai Wei.

"My niece is really capable, to be able to marry the only legitimate Prince of our Great Jin Nation; who knows, you could even become the Empress in the future. Hehe, it really brings honor to our old Mu family, and your uncle is very proud of you..."

Lady Li muttered to herself, "I was wondering whether to leave today or not, but since the two nieces are about to get married, we’ll wait until after their marriages are settled..."

Cai Wei looked at them coldly and said, "No need, you should take the silver and go back to your old home. When Fei’er and I will get married is still uncertain. Don’t miss out on your own business for nothing."

"No worries, no worries, we have nothing to do if we go back home. Our carriages and fields have been taken by Madam Lü. Even if we take these three thousand taels of silver back, it might be robbed by people sent by Madam Lü. In this case, staying here is safer!" Mu Liankui implied in a roundabout way.

Lady Mu Bai also came up, shamelessly appealing to Cai Wei, "The Old Madame from Duke An’s Mansion has also invited our entire family to the banquet. Sister Wei, our grandmother has never been to such a Marquis’s Mansion in this life. If she could go there once to broaden her horizons, even death wouldn’t be regrettable."

"Elder Sister, please fulfill our grandmother’s heart’s desire. We promise to behave properly and will no longer cause you trouble," Mu Chongfu pleaded with a drooling face.

Even the usually irascible Mu Chongcai had softened, "Elder Sister, from now on our family will just stay quietly in the backyard and will never casually bother you. Please, considering we all share the same ancestors, don’t drive us away."

Cai Wei obviously knew the true intentions of the Great House family. Though she detested them, they had made such a pitiable appeal that if she insisted on sending them away, her dad would surely feel bad. He might even think she had become arrogant and unrecognizable from her imminent role as Princess Consort Qin. Not wanting to disrupt the harmony in the home, she could only agree for the time being and think of other methods to deal with this shameless family later.

Thus, she spoke coldly, "If you plan to stay for good, you should know the rules of our home. I don’t like to be disturbed. Stay in your backyard when you have nothing to do, and I assure you, you won’t lack food or drink. Just don’t let me see you!"

"Alright, alright, rest assured, we will definitely follow the rules and behave," they said, snickering.
