Mo Yi continued: "Mu Chen, it was his grandfather who specially named him. I hope he will not change his original intention, be as careful as dust, and be diligent."

As he said that, Mo Yi handed over another piece of snack and said, "Xi'er, eat another piece."

"Ah, I still eat." Xiao Jinxi smiled helplessly, but still took the pastry and continued to eat.

Then he said: "Mo Yi, do you want me to eat all the food that I left behind in the past two days?"

Mo Yi smiled instantly, and replied: "That's a good idea, then make it up slowly like this. Xi'er, what else do you want to eat, I'll let Qingyu buy it."

Xiao Jinxi nodded and said with a smile: "Well, I have to think about it."

Mo Yi responded with a smile: "Okay, Xi'er, if you think it over, just tell me."

Xiao Jinxi nodded and said, "Yeah. Go on, I'm listening."

"Okay." Mo Yi nodded in response.

Immediately he said: "The announcement was originally a deterrent. In this way, it can be regarded as a peaceful and stable life."

"But after a long time, people's greed gradually made people forget that notice."

"When Mu Chen was ten years old, one day, another group of debtors came."

"At that time, his grandfather knew that Mu Chen's father, with the small monthly money, actually started a business partnership with others, doing business in marine transportation."

"But who would be interested in that little monthly money? In the end, it was his identity as the prefect's son who would be the one to cooperate with him."

"And during this period, his father used it as a convenience to win a lot of business for this boat company."

"However, there was a big storm later when the ship was carrying goods. The ship sank, and the entire ship's goods were gone. Even the people on board died."

"But they are supposed to be more sensitive to the weather in this business. They shouldn't go to sea on such uncertain days. But his father doesn't understand these things at all."

"The two partners were not in the area at the time. After the incident, they received the news and went back to check and found out that it was his father who took other people's orders in private and arranged to go to sea."

"After the incident, both the owner of the goods and the family members of the dead man went to the shipyard to ask for money. And these two partners had expected this to happen."

"These two people gave the funds for the shipyard back then. They let his father buy the shares just because he is the prefect's son and wanted to be greedy for this convenience."

"So, after the incident, they took advantage of the time to liquidate the losses, and secretly transferred all the money in the shipyard."

"By the time those people came to ask for debts, these two partners had already stolen all the money and disappeared without a trace."

"It was his father who negotiated the business at the beginning. The owner of the goods naturally came to him, and the family members of the dead fellows even came to him directly."

"After investigation by his grandfather later, he found out that when the shipping company was registered, the person responsible turned out to be his father."

"Thinking about these two partners, they also know his father's nature. They want to take advantage of the convenience of his magistrate's son and prevent him from causing trouble."

Seeing the woman finished eating the cake, Mo Yi handed over the teacup and said, "Come, Xi'er, drink tea."

"En." Xiao Jinxi smiled, took the teacup, and drank slowly.

Mo Yi continued: "When his grandfather found these two people, they even said with certainty that his father didn't pay any money when the boat was sailing."

"Although they borrowed the prefect's son's convenience, they also shared the profits with him every month. But he obviously didn't understand anything, and dared to accept the business, which is why this incident happened."

"More clearly, I will never take care of this matter again. Whoever made it, I will clean up the mess myself."

"And for this accident, the money for the cargo, the money for the damage to the chartered ship, and the compensation for the dead man, this is a huge amount."

"However, his father hid outside and did not go back. But those who wanted debts came to find them. He even stated that if his grandfather ignored him, he would sue the court."

"In the end, there was no other way. His grandfather spent all his wealth and even sold his ancestral house to repay the money."

"Afterwards, his grandfather also fell ill all of a sudden, and he stayed ill for a long time. But after recovering from the illness, his grandfather resigned from his official position and returned home when he was old."

"Maybe his grandfather is also afraid. He is afraid that his father will use the convenience of the magistrate's son again to make more troubles. At that time, he may not be able to deal with it, and he is even more afraid of implicating his grandson."

"Later, with the remaining money, his grandfather took the whole family back to his hometown, bought a small house and a small shop, and the family lived there."

"And from then on, his grandfather only took care of raising his grandson. And his mother took care of the business of that shop. I thought, life will be lived in peace and stability like this."

"But later on, his father couldn't keep going outside, so he secretly went back to his hometown and found his grandmother. Since then, his grandmother has always secretly given the money in the shop to his father."

"And his father had money, so he started to gamble again. Not long after, someone came to ask for gambling debts."

"When his grandfather found out, he was fainted on the spot, and his condition worsened later on. Many doctors were invited, but they couldn't be rescued, and he died in the end."

"And the last remaining shop and house were all taken away by the creditors. In an instant, their family was homeless and living on the streets."

"And his grandfather is no longer here. At this time, his grandmother just realized her mistake, and she couldn't afford it. She passed away not long after."

"Since then, his mother has taken Muchen and traveled far away, just to avoid his father and never let his father find them."

"Since then, his mother has taken her son to work alone. Although her life is poor, at least it is stable. His mother does all kinds of work, just to support this son."

"That winter was even more severe than previous years. His mother gave her son the best, but she herself caught the cold and became seriously ill."

"When I was already poor, how could I afford to hire a doctor to treat my illness well. After procrastinating like this, I eventually suffered from heart disease and fainted at home."

"That day, Mu Chen took his mother to various medical clinics for help, hoping that they could treat his mother's illness first, and he would make money to pay them back later."

"But in this world, how can there be so many kind-hearted people, many of them just drive his mother and son away."

"In some medical clinics, he showed his mother a look. After reading it, they said that the serious condition caused heart disease, which was difficult to cure, and it would be a waste of money to treat it. In the end, they drove his mother and son out of the medical clinic."

"It was snowing heavily that day, and Mu Chen pushed his mother, walking in the heavy snow like this, watching his mother dying, but there was nothing he could do."

"And in that cold winter, he had nothing to eat, and he was already crumbling. But he still persisted, pushing his mother away, trying to find a place to shelter from the wind and snow."

"Maybe it's a coincidence. During that time, I happened to take Qingfeng and the others on a tour outside. That day, I was riding on a horse and saw this scene from a distance."

"When we walked in front of Mu Chen, Mu Chen only said one sentence, please save my mother. After finishing speaking, he was exhausted and fainted."
