Mu Chongfu and Mu Chongcai were also released. After several days in the oppressive darkness of prison, their hatred for Caiwei ran bone-deep. When they heard their grandpa berating that little bitch, Mu Caiwei, they eagerly joined in the denouncement of her heartlessness and cruelty.
As Mu Zhongqing saw the impassioned outcry from his family, he couldn't help but feel relieved that he had pulled Wei'er aside earlier. Otherwise, who knew what sort of uproar it would have caused.
"Older brother, say something. Did we suffer in prison for nothing? We are your own father, brothers, and nephews!"
Mu Zhongli wasn't pleased with his older brother's silence. As a scholar, he highly valued manners and filial piety. His daughter had sent her own grandfather to prison, and he had no reason to ignore this!
