love you like jewels

Chapter 714
Time passed day by day, and the summer vacation was almost over.

But at this time, a small thing happened in the Mu family.

Mu Yunde died in the hospital.

When Wen Niannian found out about this, it was already the third day after Mu Yunde's death. She didn't know how Mu Henian handled Mu Yunde's funeral, but judging from Mu Henian's expression, he I don't seem to be in a good mood.

Objectively speaking, Wen Niannian doesn't like the father-in-law Mu Yunde at all, but he is Mu Henian's biological father after all, and also the grandfather of Dabao and Erbao.

As a family, the bones are broken and the tendons are connected. Even though Mu Yunde has done many bad things in his lifetime, he is already dead, and all this should be overturned.

She found an opportunity and asked tentatively, "Where is your father buried? Another day, I will take the children to burn incense, right?"

Mu Henian took a deep look at her, not knowing what he thought of, he stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, put his cheek on her hair, and stroked it gently.

He whispered, "I hate him."

Although he didn't mention his name, Wen Niannian understood right away that the "he" he was talking about should be Mu Yunde.

He went on to say: "But seeing him dead, I can't be happy anyway."

Wen Niannian gently stroked the back of his neck: "After all, you are flesh and blood, this is human nature."

"I'd rather not be his own son."

When he said this, there was a rare sadness in his voice.

Wen Niannian didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only sigh softly: "It's all over."

The next morning, Mu Henian took Wen Niannian and the two children to the cemetery.

After Mu Yunde was cremated, his ashes were placed in the mourning hall of the cemetery. There was no funeral, no farewell party for the body, and no relatives and friends to see him off. This ambitious but moderate-minded man was sealed away forever. in the urn.

There was a memorial tablet in front of the urn, and Mu Henian put a bouquet of flowers and poured a glass of sake.

While doing these things, there was no expression on his face.

Wen Niannian took the two children to offer incense.

None of them spoke, they inserted the lit sticks of incense into the incense burner, and then left.

Before leaving, Mu Henian looked back at the photo on the memorial tablet for the last time.

This glance seemed to be a complete farewell to the gloomy childhood that he least wanted to mention.

All resentment, all fear, has gone.

And what stays with him is what he loves the most.

The family of four returned home by car.

Wen Niannian sent the two children to play with Xiaobao. When she walked into the study, she saw Mu Henian was on the phone with someone. She didn't know what the person on the other end said. His expression looked very uncomfortable. good.

"Well, I see."

After saying the last sentence, Mu Henian hung up the phone, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, looking a little tired.

Wen Niannian walked over and asked, "What happened?"

"Just now the hospital called and said Xu Meiqin was missing."

Wen Niannian was stunned: "How could this happen?"

At the beginning, Xu Meiqin and Mu Yunde were sent to the hospital for house arrest at the same time. Now that Mu Yunde has passed away, it stands to reason that Xu Meiqin should stay in the hospital honestly. Why did she suddenly disappear? !
Mu Henian said slowly: "The hospital has checked the surveillance video, and it is certain that someone took Xu Meiqin away quietly."

"who is it?"
