The General's Little Peasant Wife

Chapter 936: Ungrateful

Translator: Vesper

Mu Chen looked at Mu Xue who was dumbfounded because of Situ Xuan’s words. And also thought about that time when that skinny little child had really gotten the strange character of Grandpa Hei to come and treat his sister back, so that his sister had a chance to live.

“The following year, because of your own playfulness, you were kidnapped. We were all away at that time. Meng Yao, who had just learnt some martial arts, took care of a handful of people with her skills just to save you. As a result, she had three broken ribs and multiple bruises on her body. Just so that you don’t feel guilty, she went to another doctor to get herself treated and told us to inform you that she left as she had something urgent to deal with.” Mu Chen said hoarsely.

There were countless such incidents.

At that time, Mu Xue was a little arrogant, so she easily offended people by her behaviour, but she thought that since she had them by her side, nothing would happen to her, so she had always caused trouble.

And Ning Meng Yao was always there to clean up her mess, even though she was the youngest amongst them.

Mu Xue kept shaking her head, not believing what they were saying at all.

“I don’t believe you guys! Whatever you’re saying is false!” Mu Xue covered her ears, reluctant to listen to them.

How could this be?

Situ Xuan laughed coldly. Evading reality was really Mu Xue’s style.

“Believing it or not is up to you. But I will always remember her deeds. To put it in a nice way about all the things that you’ve done, we could say that you did it for yourself. But to put it bluntly, you’re just an ungrateful person.” Mu Chen uttered each word clearly to Mu Xue.

“Let’s go, Chen.” Situ Xuan sighed softly. She guessed that Mu Xue would never listen to them. In that case, what was more to say?

Mu Chen nodded and left with Situ Xuan.

Watching their backs as they left, she wanted to tell them to stay. But she was in no position to do anything but let them go.

Mu Xue was the only one left in the room. The quiet room made Mu Xue involuntarily think of what they said. There was a trace of confusion in her eyes. Was she really wrong this time?

Could it be possible that what they said was true? But... but why couldn’t she remember any of it at all?

She held her chest. What was this sore and astringent feeling?

Xiao Qi Tian stood at the door, looking at Mu Xue in a daze on her bed, shaking his head in disappointment.

He had heard their conversation. He felt that he and Tian Chang were quite similar.

Tian Chang had also saved their lives many times, but all he got in the end was their betrayal. Mu Chen was right. To put it in a nice way, they could say that they only did it for their own sake. However, the truth was they were just ungrateful people.

Mu Chen’s emotions were still a little triggered, he pursed his lips and continued looking ahead. Situ Xuan looked at him worriedly.

“Chen, are you okay?”

“I’m okay. I just feel that it wasn’t really a good thing that Yao’er had concealed all the things she did from Mu Xue.” All of them knew the sacrifices Ning Meng Yao made, except Mu Xue. It was as if all those things were other people’s matter, nothing related to her at all.

Situ Xuan looked at Mu Chen helplessly, also feeling uncomfortable.

The child who had always been spoiled by them, had actually done a lot for her. Whether it was for Mu Xue or for them, Ning Meng Yao had done a lot for them in private.

“Okay, let’s not think about these things anymore. I’ve just got news that Uncle and other relatives will arrive tomorrow. Go pack your stuff. We’ll leave the day after tomorrow.” Mu Chen took a deep breath, cast aside the heavy feeling in his heart, and spoke to Situ Xuan.

Situ Xuan nodded, she too was hesitant to stay here any longer. She really did not know what Mu Xue would do, seeing the way she behaved.

Xiao Qi Feng’s mood was also not very good these days. He could not get the things he wanted, neither could he get any news from Mu Chen’s side. Everything seemed to be at an impasse.

Suddenly Xiao Qi Feng kept coughing as he covered his mouth.

Just as before, there were blood stains on his hand, he pursed his lips tightly. Xiao Qi Feng was no longer eager, instead he was helpless.

He seemed to have made a mistake this time. But was there still any opportunity for him to turn back time when things had already become like this?
