The head of the Mu family

Chapter 192 Even the strongest people suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder.

"You go wash up first, and let Qingxue help me get dressed. I just don't have much strength."

Qianyan looked at Huaisheng, her eyes instantly filling with tears. Huaisheng looked at her red eyes and said helplessly:

"Okay, okay~ You help me put it on, you help me put it on."

Qianyan kissed Huaisheng's forehead and carefully helped her get dressed and wash up.

"I...I need to use the restroom~"

Huai Sheng said somewhat awkwardly.

"Qingxue, you can go out now."

We'll be there in a minute.

Qingxue responded and took the basin of water out.

Qianyan carried Huaisheng to the toilet, pulled down her pants, and put her on the toilet.

After Huaisheng finished, Qianyan took the toilet paper, skillfully picked him up, and placed him on the recliner next to her.

He spread Huai Sheng's legs apart, gently wiped them, put on his pants, and then lifted him onto his lap.

Before Huai Sheng could stop him, he felt both touched and a little embarrassed.

"These days I've been..."

"Your pulse will quicken a little when you need to use the restroom."

Don't worry, I'll be right next to you. I won't let you use the toilet in bed no matter what.

"Does it still... still hurt?"

"A brief statement..."

I... I was so scared during those days...

Two lines of clear tears flowed down her cheeks involuntarily, and Qianyan's eyes immediately reddened as she hugged Huaisheng in her arms.

On the day I ran away, I had only one thought:

"I'd rather die than die with that beast..."

Huai Sheng hugged him back, buried his face in the crook of his neck and rubbed against him, murmuring through tears.

"Huai Sheng..."

The two embraced and whispered sweet nothings to each other for a long time.

When we came out, the sun had already set, and everyone was in the dining room, where dinner was already prepared.

After the dishes were laid out, everyone sat down in a lively atmosphere, and Qianyan carried Huaisheng to a stool.

Everyone had lost weight, and the family enjoyed a happy dinner together.

Huai Sheng ate specially prepared food, while the other big guys ate such lavish meals that Huai Sheng was envious.

"Hmph~ You bad people~"

So much delicious food, and they're eating it right in front of me!

"Hey~ then you'd better get better soon, patriarch, so you can eat with us~"

Mu Xu said smugly, Qing Chen glanced at him sideways, and everyone laughed.

Ni'er stood up, went to Huaisheng's side, and reached out to serve her her meal.

"Huh? Ni'er, what are you doing?"

“Elder sister, an elder sister is like a mother. Since Ni’er is the daughter-in-law of the Mu family, she has been taught at home to serve her elder sister well since she was a young girl.”

"Okay, Ni'er~ We don't have that rule in our family. You and Mu Su just need to take good care of your little family."

Ni hesitated, unsure whether she should go back to her seat, while Huai Sheng was unable to move.

Qingchen came over with a smile and pulled her back to her seat.

"Sister-in-law, please sit down and relax."

"Our family really doesn't have that rule. You see, we've all signed indentures, are we like other families?"

Ni'er opened her eyes wide in surprise and hesitated before sitting down.

The atmosphere at the table became so relaxed that Ni'er almost felt that the previous seventeen years had been too oppressive.

They chatted about things at the shop, about the Mu family, and about everyone else.

If anyone encounters something perplexing, they should bring it up and discuss it with everyone.

Ni'er only remembered after finishing her meal that the men and women were not seated separately, but rather on opposite sides.

After dinner, Qianyan wrapped Huaisheng in a cloak and carried him on her back.

Huaisheng wrapped Qianyan in his cloak, and the two smiled at each other.

Together with Li Rongchuan's family, we went to admire the lanterns.

As everyone was having a lively time, Qianyan suddenly felt Huaisheng on her back shudder.

Huai Sheng trembled uncontrollably and buried his face in Qian Yan's neck.

Qianyan looked around and saw that it was a group of tall, burly men from Simon selling horses.

"Huaisheng, are you tired?"

"How about we go back and rest first?"

"Um..."

Huai Sheng nodded silently.

It's a rare treat for everyone to get out and relax.

Qianyan then briefly explained the situation to everyone and encouraged them to continue playing.

Carrying Huaisheng on his back, he walked to the vicinity of the General's Mansion and rubbed his cheek against Huaisheng's neck.

"Don't be afraid, okay? I'm here."

"Master..."

Yuan Su suddenly called out softly from behind, startling the two of them.

"You scared us! Why didn't you continue playing?"

Startled, Huai Sheng forgot his fear and stopped trembling. Seeing that it was Yuan Su, he asked in confusion.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Rong An appeared again from the corner.

"Master, we are worried and will escort you and the Master."

Qianyan felt a little helpless looking at these two guilty, silly boys.

"We've arrived. I'll take care of things here, Huaisheng~"

"It's a rare chance to relax, you guys go have some fun."

"The head of the family was scared and wanted to come back because he saw those people wearing Simon's clothes."

We just saw it, Master...

"Okay, okay~ I was really scared for a moment, I'll be fine in a few days."

As they spoke, they entered the house. The two helped Qianyan put Huaisheng on the bed and helped him sit up.

They then had to help Huaisheng take off his specially made cotton socks and shoes.

Qianyan was both amused and exasperated, and reached out to slap their hands away.

"You two are also sons of wealthy families, and now you both have some degree of official rank."

Have they completely forgotten about the strict separation of men and women?

The two withdrew their hands and stood aside, while Qianyan carefully helped Huaisheng take off his 'shoes'.

"You two don't need to blame yourselves anymore. It wasn't our fault."

By the way, has Qingyue written a letter recently?

How is the child?

When I woke up, I asked you questions, but you just gave me vague answers.

"The baby is fine, Qingyue, aren't you worried?"

"How is it good?"

"Tell me honestly, didn't you ask about it?"

He spoke softly and quietly, only carefully taking off his other 'shoe'.

"Don't you care about the children when I'm not home?"

"You don't even care about the children, why should you care about me?"

As Huai Sheng spoke, an inexplicable anger rose within him, and he turned his head away, no longer wanting to talk to Qian Yan.

Qianyan smiled helplessly, pulled the blanket up to cover her legs, and placed a book on the bedside table.

I'm going to get some water to wash up.

"You two, come out here!"

Qianyan led the two out to the water room, where they fetched water for her.

Rong An nudged Yuan Su, Yuan Su nudged Rong An, and after much hesitation, Rong An finally spoke:

"Master, we have something to say."

"say what?"

"We...we..."

"Oh dear~ let me tell you!"

Master, if you harbor resentment because of what happened to you, Master, please...

Please don't hurt the master's feelings; just divorce him.

We will take care of the master for the rest of our lives. I will study hard for the imperial examinations and strive to make the master the wife of the top scholar.

"I'm not as good at studying as Yuan Su, but I can take care of the children and the head of the household at home..."

After hearing this, Qianyan was amused by the sincerity of these two stubborn people.

"You don't need to worry about these things!"

With me here, no matter what happens, Huaisheng won't need anyone else to take care of him.

Keep your good intentions to yourselves.

"Either go play for a while, or go rest!"

A few words of my inner thoughts:

Hmph~ You wish!

You two little brats, trying to steal my Cui Qianyan's boyfriend? You're still too green!

After speaking briefly, she took the water from their hands and went back to her room.
