The Miracle Doctor's Wife is Not a Weak Lady!-Chapter 38
A Marginalized Eldest Young Master
The eldest son of the eldest branch was born noble and had a lot of responsibilities. He was nurtured as the heir since he was young.
With eugenics and education in mind, they chose the eldest daughter-in-law carefully to ensure that the descendants of the eldest branch would not have IQ problems.
In Mu Ci’s generation, due to physical reasons and the fact that he had long been judged to not live long, the responsibility of the eldest branch fell on Mu En.
“After I was poisoned, I became an abandoned son of the Mu family. The Mu family is a big clan with a hundred years of history. Even if I took the position of the eldest son of the eldest branch, it was impossible for me to break the rules of the ancestors. Fortunately, the eldest branch had a second son, so the position of the heir fell to Mu En. I became a marginalized person.” Mu Ci leaned against the head of the bed with a relaxed expression, as if he was just telling a story that had nothing to do with him.
Liu Ming had accompanied him for half an hour of rehabilitation training under Bei Shuo’s guidance. He was sweating profusely and felt refreshed after taking a shower. He was in a good mood. Taking advantage of Liu Ming’s presence, he started talking about his family matters.
Liu Ming was silent.
“When I was 15 years old, I moved out of the old residence with Uncle Liu and lived alone in the villa under my name. No one had to see me anymore. Grandpa doted on me and taught me how to manage operations when my health allowed it. Later, he handed over my grandmother’s dowry and his private assets to me. I didn’t study overseas like my little brother. I completely figured it out bit by bit. In a few years, I managed to do well with the business.” Mu Ci briefly explained the hardships of the past few years.
Liu Ming clenched his fists and said angrily, “I didn’t expect that just because Young Master’s ability is too outstanding, those demons and monsters hiding in the dark will be restless. Young Master has already left the Mu family, but they still won’t let him off. If I find out, I won’t let him off easily.”
Bei Shuo frowned. This was too complicated for her. 𝙛𝑟𝘦ℯ𝘄e𝙗nov𝙚𝑙. 𝐜𝑜𝗺
She shrugged. “I thought the Bei family was bad enough. I didn’t realize the Mu family was more complicated.”
“Did I scare you?” Mu Ci smiled.
Bei Shuo shook her head. “Nope. Our family motto is to not cause trouble and not be afraid of trouble. If people don’t provoke us, we’ll do a good deed every day. If people provoke us, they’ll be exterminated.”
Mu Ci and Liu Ming were both petrified.
What kind of family motto was this?
“Who set this rule?” Bei De’s fawning face flashed across Mu Ci’s mind. It really did not match this murderous family rule.
Bei Shuo smiled and said, “It was Second Senior Brother! Since Eldest Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother also agreed, Master couldn’t object. Third Senior Brother said that we live in a dangerous world. If things don’t work, we should just retreat. The most important thing in this life is to be happy and free. Anything that makes me uncomfortable proves that it’s meaningless and isn’t worth it.”
Liu Ming and Mu Ci looked at each other, feeling curious.
Liu Ming could not help but ask, “Then, has Young Madam suffered any grievances in the Bei family?”
Bei Shuo nodded. “Of course. To the Bei family, I’m an intruder. It’s normal for them not to like me.”
Mu Ci’s expression darkened. “You’re their biological daughter! You were lost at such a young age. Not only do they not feel guilty towards you, but they also don’t like you. Don’t you feel upset?”
This Bei De was indeed despicable!
Bei Shuo sighed. “That’s right. I’m also very angry. My master and senior brothers have never given up on helping me find my biological parents. It wasn’t easy for them to find them, but they already have an adopted daughter. Bei Le was adopted from the orphanage a year after I went missing. They wanted to replace me and make up for the pain of losing their daughter. More than ten years have passed, and Bei Le is no different from their biological daughter. Their biological daughter isn’t that important anymore. I originally decided not to care. After meeting each other, we could move on and go our own ways. I’ve already grown up, so it doesn’t matter if I have a biological family.”
“Who would have known that my older brother, Bei Cong, would suddenly change from cold to passionate and insist on keeping me at home? This caused Bei Le to be angered. She took sleeping pills and slit her wrist, and she kept saying that she wanted to leave the family. My mother cried her heart out and told Bei Cong that she had to send me away. She only has one daughter, and that’s Bei Le. She can give me more money, but I have to leave. She can’t live without Bei Le.” Bei Shuo’s voice was filled with sorrow.
After all, it was fine if she did not know that she had biological parents. However, if she knew and was not acknowledged or accepted by them, it would be another kind of pain.
