It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 88 Winners and Losers
When Mrs. Mu said this, Mu Liuyun understood.

Although it seems that the Guo family is in a weak position at this stage, everything must be controlled by Mrs. Wan. The shopkeeper Guo is getting old, and he is always worried that he will be driven by the old father-in-law to take a cane.

But in fact, in the long run, as long as Guo Hongqing can enter the office, the status of Guo and Wan will be reversed.

Once Guo Hongqing is in power, the only son of the incompetent family has to rely on his nephew to seek support in the future, and Guo Houfu can finally raise his eyebrows in front of the Yue family and straighten his back to be a man.

Of course, the biggest winners here are tens of thousands of clansmen. Originally, they relied on their mother's family to make a fortune in her husband's family. When her mother's family was declining, her own son became an official again, and her mother's family would see her face. , The in-law's side also has to look at his son's sake, give himself a little more face, and don't be too majestic.

It's just that now, others don't know about Yuan Mu's considerations. For outsiders, Guo Hongqing is in prison and is suspected of killing his wife. If this matter is confirmed, with Ye Linglan's death, Guo Hongqing must be killed. When it came to the ground, by that time, the Guo family had no eldest son who was originally counting on supporting the portal, and the Wan family had no grandson and nephew to rely on.

The worst is the Wan family, who lost their only real son, was chased by the Ye family and demanded to spit out the dowry of their daughter-in-law, and was the mother of the murderer, who suffered endless scorn and scorn, and perhaps at the same time by the Guo family and Wan. The family accused the godson of being incompetent.

"By the way, mother, do you know about the fact that Mrs. Wan wanted to steal her daughter-in-law's dowry?" Mu Liuyun thought of the fact that Mrs. Ye's dowry had turned into scrap metal, and casually asked her mother about it.

Mrs. Mu smiled, with a bit of contempt: "How can you not know! Taiping County is such a big place, there are only a few families with heads and faces, and they usually bow their heads and don't look up to see each other, especially Zhang and Wang. My wife, usually likes to go to our tea house and private room to drink tea and chat. Your mother and I always have to go and have a look, stay with me for a while, and it is inevitable that I will hear a few words.

I heard that Mrs. Wan is very domineering at home. It seems that she has made shopkeeper Guo suffer a lot, but after all, the income in the family is still in the hands of shopkeeper Guo, so her life is not easy. Every time I want to ask for some money from the shopkeeper Guo, it is even more difficult.

But Mrs Wan always felt that her son would definitely have great prospects in the future, so she liked to pretend to be ostentatious in front of others, but she didn't have a lot of money in her hand, so she couldn't keep her face, so she set her sights on her own dowry Rich daughter-in-law.

As for how she got her daughter-in-law's dowry, we outsiders don't know that, but Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Zhang have said that for a while, Mrs Wan suddenly became rich, and it was new and new. Clothes, it is estimated that the dowry was already snatched from the daughter-in-law at that time. "

"I didn't steal it, but I don't know if I stole it or not." Mu Liuyun told his mother what the little maid, Yuanyang, who came to him at night to beg her master to seek justice.

Mrs. Mu was also very surprised when she heard it, and then she scolded Mrs. Wan with contempt. Although she said that Mu Liuyun was raised as a son, Mrs. Mu thought that if she married, her mother-in-law would be so black-hearted. , even committing to steal her dowry, he felt angry and gritted his teeth.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while. Mrs. Mu was afraid of delaying Mu Liuyun's rest, so she went back to the room. Mu Liuyun washed himself, and lay on the bed with his arms on his back.

Previously, she thought that the Wan family had enough murderous intentions for Ye Linglan. First, this daughter-in-law was "out of nothing and jealous", which delayed the development of her precious son, and secondly, Ye Linglan had enough in her hands for her to covet. The large amount of dowry, once Ye Linglan was removed, the dowry went into the Wan family's pocket, and the outer chamber could be brought into the door to be a concubine for Guo Hongqing, and the grandson would be hugged rightly.

But recently, after listening to Yuanyang's story about the stealing of Ye Linglan's dowry by the Wan family, and what his mother said about the mutual use and mutual dependence between the Wan family and the Guo family, Mu Liuyun felt that his thinking had also changed.

Because there is the outer room and the unborn child in the outer room, at such a juncture, Ye Linglan's death will inevitably point the suspicion directly to Guo Hongqing, and once Guo Hongqing gets into this kind of suspicion, it cannot be erased. The impact will also affect the Guo family and the Wan family, and once it affects these two families, it will be directly affected, or the one who suffers the most must be the Wan family in the middle.

If Mr. Wan was a reckless person, he would not have thought of such comprehensiveness, but a reckless person who could not have thought of such a thoughtful and reckless person would not be able to use such a comprehensive method.

And a mother-in-law who has already murdered her daughter-in-law intends to kill her and takes it by accident. How can she do that kind of business of stealing rubbish for real money?It really doesn't make sense.

Guo Houfu also shares the same reasoning with the Wan family. In the past so many years, because of the strong and fierce temper of the father-in-law, he helped him to make a fortune. Therefore, Guo Houfu can be said to be a man with his tail tucked in front of the Wan family, and his only hope of turning over is Guo Hongqing. Make a name for yourself, or donate a name, once Guo Hongqing has a problem with this matter, then everything will be in vain.

In this case, the only people who can have little influence on themselves, or who can still benefit from it, are only the second son Guo Hongye, who was not favored before, or the son who was adopted by Ye Yuanwai.

Mu Liuyun muttered for a while by himself, then came back to his senses and realized that it was getting late. Shepherd dozed off...

Mu Liuyun shivered, and quickly put away all other thoughts, daring not to delay sleep by thinking about it, so as not to be embarrassed again the next day.

It's enough to do it once, but if you do it a few times, she's really afraid that she won't have enough life to play with.

Early the next morning, Mu Liuyun got up as usual and went to Mrs. Mu's room to accompany her mother for breakfast. When she entered the door, the breakfast had already been set on the table, and a warm aroma rushed to her face, and Mu Liuyun's stomach was rumbling with hunger. , I couldn't eat dinner at ease the day before, and now I'm very hungry now.

However, she suddenly remembered that after returning from Yinfeng Tower the day before, the original arrangement was disrupted by the sudden visit of the mandarin duck. .

"Hongguo, go, help me get the cakes that I brought back from Xisi County yesterday." She greeted Hongguo who was waiting by the side, "Bring them all to me!"

　Thank you for the reward!
