From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 581 - 577 Keep an Eye on Mu Dade (Third Update)

"Big sis, what are you really here for today? If you’re suspecting Big Brother, you better leave!"Mu Dade’s attitude wasn’t pleasant.

He’s already participated in the Lu Ming Banquet, how could it be fake?

Besides, the test papers and the ones he bought clearly matched exactly.

"Big Brother, I wasn’t suspecting you, I just wanted to be sure, you know why not many people came to visit our family? It’s because your documents didn’t arrive. If they don’t come, everyone’s going to be just as suspicious as I am!"

Mu Xianxian smiled flatteringly, wearing an ingratiating expression.

At heart, Mu Xianxian was calculating; she had previously thought she’d waive her Big Brother’s fifty taels, now it seemed she’d have to reclaim it.

Even if it meant making her parents sell land and fields, she’d have to track it down.

"Alright, you don’t need to worry about this matter!"

Mu Dade didn’t want to speak much to Mu Xianxian, it’s just a document; it’d come eventually anyway, so why fret so?

Mu Xianxian was chased out of Mu Dade’s room.

She didn’t actually leave but went to Mu Xiangxiang’s room instead.

Mu Xiangxiang’s room was also a mess this time, not really viewable.

However, upon seeing Mu Xianxian, Mu Xiangxiang still hurriedly climbed down from the bed.

"Big Sister, why are you here?"

Mu Xiangxiang lived in Mu Xianxian’s house for quite a while and felt closer to this big sister than the second sister.

So naturally, Mu Xiangxiang’s attitude towards Mu Xianxian was good.

"Sweetie, tell me, are you having fun here?" Mu Xianxian asked.o visit; suddenly going would make it seem like they want to cling to the first branch.

"It’s no trouble, since my aunt sent people over repeatedly inviting us, it’d be unreasonable for us not to go!"

Before Mr. Mu came twice and didn’t visit, this time, it demonstrated that the third branch isn’t under anyone’s control, they do as they please!

"Alright then, Mom will get ready!"

Yu Si Niang meant to go to the Old Mu Family’s kitchen to help Mrs. Liu cook when she said she’d prepare.

These chores used to be hers alone, but now it’s Mrs. Liu’s turn.

Seeing the increasingly slim Mrs. Liu, Yu Si Niang felt uneasy.

"Mom, there’s no need for you to go prepare; even without us, Fourth Aunt would still have to cook. If you get used to it, Grandma will often call you over!"

"It’s fine, Fourth Aunt is pitiable, and it’s not like I have time every day, just today I’m free!"

Saying that, Yu Si Niang went to the Old Mu Family’s house.

Mu Shuangshuang sighed deeply and said to Lu Yuanfeng: "Why is my mom so kind-hearted; even my dad isn’t soft anymore, but she’s still like this, even though she has a tougher personality than my dad!"

Mu Shuangshuang was puzzled, but Lu Yuanfeng comforted her instead.

"Fourth Aunt is a wife; as a wife, she naturally respects the mother-in-law. Uncle Dashan is different; he’s a man, and the responsibilities he carries are heavier than others!"

Mu Shuangshuang nodded in agreement: "That’s true, but my grandma, this mother-in-law..." Mu Shuangshuang shook her head seriously.

Lu Yuanfeng couldn’t help but laugh.

"Then I guess I’ll have dinner with Yuanbao at home tonight; tomorrow we’ll go finalize the business in the town, then I’ll go dig out the canal for those three acres of rice fields!"

Those three acres from the Old Mu Family are now Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng’s property. After harvest, they only need to give half of it back to the Old Mu Family.

"Great, once these tasks are done, we’ll have to prepare the banquet menu for the feast!"

The feast on September 16th isn’t too close, but it’s not too far either!

Mu Shuangshuang sent Lu Yuanfeng off and also took a look at the chicks in the hills.

In the bamboo forest, the birds chirp cheerily this time, and the bamboo pipes laying across the forest carried water.

Lu Yuanfeng just needed to fill the pipes with water each morning, and it would suffice for the chicks’ daily needs.

Then there were the feeding troughs, made of wood, filled with herbal medicines Zhang Huai Shu concocted.

These chicks have grown up eating herbs, and not a single one died; besides, Lu Yuanfeng was skilled, having sprinkled sulfur around, there wasn’t even a trace of snakes.

In such a short time, the chicks had grown thick feathers, although they weren’t as good as the chickens Mu Danian stole from Tie Dao Village, Mu Shuangshuang was very satisfied!

"It’s a shame it’s not the season for bamboo shoots now; come spring, when bamboo shoots are all over the mountains, we’ll have our work cut out for us again!" Mu Shuangshuang sighed.

"No need to wait till spring, there’ll be shoots in winter; winter shoots are tastier than spring shoots!" Lu Yuanfeng commented.

With such a thought, Mu Shuangshuang looked forward even more!

"Fengzi, do you want me to make dinner for you before you go back?"
