Chapter 34 She's Getting On With Someone Else
Mu Chi was anxious but helpless, he called, "Mother."

"As long as you want to marry that woman, I won't see a doctor for this illness." Mrs. Liang can pamper and follow him about other things, but she will never let go of this matter.

"Mother, why don't you let me marry Yue'er, she is really a good girl." Mu Chi is also determined not to marry Qi Yue.

"Good girl?" Mrs. Liang said hoarsely, "This Xiao Shengyuan has just been dismissed, and she went to divorce her. Such a woman can share joys and sorrows with you, and she will never share sorrows with you."

Mu Chi retorted, "I don't need her to suffer with me."

Seeing that her son was stubborn, Mrs. Liang suddenly coughed violently.

"Mother, don't be angry." Mu Chi also panicked, "Uncle Fang, hurry up and call for a doctor."

"Hey, I'll go right away." Fang Bo didn't care about Mrs. Liang's disapproval, and hurried out of the mansion to invite a doctor.

Liang's cough was severe, but Mu Chi didn't want to let go. He had already promised Qi Yue that he would marry her into the mansion with three matchmakers, six hires and eight sedan chairs.

"Mother, you meet her. After you meet her, you will definitely not object." Mu Chi believed that after seeing Qi Yue, his mother would definitely like her.

Liang's cough got worse.

"Young master, the doctor is here." Afraid of delaying the time, Fang Bo called the carriage directly.

Liang's headache was indeed a long-standing problem, and the sudden severe cough was due to emotional agitation in the past.

The doctor gave Liang a prescription, and Fang Bo had already ordered someone to fetch the medicine.

"Doctor, is my mother's illness serious?" Mu Chi asked worriedly.

"Young master, Madam is fine, but Madam's emotions should not be too agitated." The doctor said, "It's better to be less angry on weekdays."

"Thank you sir."

"Young master, you are being polite, this is the old man's duty."

"Uncle Fang, take the doctor back to the hospital."

"Yes, young master, Doctor Sun, this way please."

After the servants cooked the medicine for Liang Shi, he fed her and drank it himself before leaving.

Feeling depressed, his mother's obstruction was like a mountain pressing on his heart, he promised Yue'er that he would keep his promise, but on his mother's side——

Liang's headache didn't heal completely in a short while, Fang Bo was busy up and down, and he didn't have the heart to care about Liang's not allowing Mu Chi to go out.

Taking advantage of the hustle and bustle in the mansion, Mu Chi went to find Qi Yue again.

In the pavilion with no one around, Mu Chi held Qi Yue tightly in his arms.

"Yue'er, I..." At this moment, his mind was in a mess. He wanted to say a lot to her, but facing her, he couldn't say a single word.

"What's wrong?" Qi Yue asked softly.

"I will definitely marry you back." He seemed to be saying to her, but he seemed to be firm in his heart, "Yue'er, I will definitely let you be my wife, Mu Chi."

Qi Yue nodded after a short pause, "Okay."

I don't know where Wang Liuying heard about Mrs. Liang's illness.

"Miss, how does Aunt Wang know so many things?" Even Qiqiao was puzzled, this Aunt Wang seemed to have clairvoyant eyes and ears, and nothing could escape her eyes and ears.

Shen Tu laughed, "Aunt Wang knows, so we will know too."

Qiqiao put the soft chair that Aunt Wang was sitting on back to its original position, and said, "Aunt Wang has learned something, and she will come and tell Miss right away."

After tidying up, Qiqiao went out.

Shen Tu was still sitting there, thinking about what Wang Liuying said just now.

The Liang family would never allow Qi Yue to marry into Duke Mu's mansion.

She also expected this result. Who is the Liang family? Although she is not the official wife of Mu Guogong, she has never regarded herself as a concubine. A concubine from a third-rank official family.

I don't know if Mu Chi can convince Liang Shi.

What Wang Liuying also knew, naturally others would know.

Jiang Fuyu went home yesterday, Mrs. Jiang felt sorry for her son's hard work in school, and insisted that he stay at home for one night and make him some food to nourish his body.

Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Liang are cousin sisters. She found out about Mrs. Liang's illness yesterday.

"Mu Chi is going to marry the second girl from the Qi family," Mrs. Jiang said.

Jiang Fuyu didn't have a good impression of his cousin, so he asked indifferently, "Which Qi family?"

"Which other Qi family is there?" She was not optimistic about Mu Chi's marriage to the second daughter of the Qi family. "The second lady of the left servant of the household department, Qi Ting'an's family." Mrs. Jiang said.

"The second young lady of the Left Servant of the Household Department?" Jiang Fuyu suddenly remembered, "Didn't she already have a marriage contract with Brother Shi Lian?"

Madam Jiang looked down on her, "It's not her."

Jiang Fuyu went back to the academy the next day and immediately went to find Xiao Shilian.

"Brother Shi Lian, you..." He looked at Xiao Shilian worriedly, but he didn't know how to ask.

Jiang Fuyu didn't know that Qi's family had gone to Xiao's to ask for a divorce, he thought Xiao Shilian didn't know that the second lady of Qi's family had fallen in love with Mu Chi behind his back.

Xiao Shilian closed the book, looked at Jiang Fuyu, "Brother Fuyu, do you have something to tell me?"

Although Mu Chi and him are cousins, he feels closer to brother Shi Lian.

"Brother Shi Lian, I want to tell you something." After much hesitation, Jiang Fuyu decided to tell him.

"Qi...the second young lady of Qi's family, she...she and Mu Chi are on good...together." After speaking, Jiang Fuyu lowered his head, not daring to look at Xiao Shilian.

Jiang Fuyu even felt sorry for Xiao Shilian, just because he and Mu Chi were cousins.

"Brother Shi Lian?" He asked worriedly, "Are you... all right?"

"I'm fine." Xiao Shilian said, "She and I have already called off the engagement.

"Cancel the engagement?" Jiang Fuyu was surprised, "When did it happen?"

Xiao Shilian didn't want to mention this matter again, so he said, "Master is here."

Throughout the day today, Jiang Fuyu's eyes never left Xiao Shilian, he was sitting right behind him, he could see him by turning his head slightly.

It's just—he didn't look sad or angry.

Jiang Fuyu was worried, brother Shilian's reaction should not be so calm, as if it had nothing to do with him.

When the master finally finished speaking, he also breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't listen to a word what the master said today.

"Brother Shi Lian, wait for me."

"Brother Fu Yu, is there anything else?"

"Brother Shi Lian, where are you going?" Jiang Fuyu was afraid that he would be overwhelmed and do something stupid.

"I'm going home today." Xiao Shilian replied.

Jiang Fuyu saw that he was not surprised, so he nodded, "Brother Lian will see you tomorrow."

Seeing Xiao Shilian's sudden return, Xiao Shili said, "Brother, didn't you say that you will live in the academy these days?"

"Come back and have a look." Xiao Shilian replied.

"Second brother just happened to be hunting today," Xiao Shili said, "Big brother is lucky."

Xiao Shili still doesn't know about the Qi family and Mu Guogong's mansion. These days, the Xiao family has kept the door closed, and they don't know anything about it outside.
