TRANSMIGRATED TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOTHERS FOR FIVE HIGHER-UPS

Chapter 461: Gifts In Dolls

Old Master Ji was not much different from before. In fact, she seemed even more benevolent than before, making Mu Jingzhe feel disbelief and uneasy.

"I think ... I think ..."

“Don't think too much. Don't." Don't." How could he hate and hate her? This was the woman Ji Buwang cherished in his heart. She was the girl who had risked her life to be saved.

If she hated him and stabbed him with a knife, her grandson would be in a lot of pain when he saw this from up there.

Old Master Ji was in so much pain that he wished he was dead, but he really did not hate Jingzhe. Not even a little. This was because Buwang had exchanged his life for Jingzhe. He can't wait to love and protect her. Only by doing so would he not let her down.

Right now, treating Mu Jingzhe well meant treating Ji Buwang well. He could not let Buwang die with the remaining grievances.

“Jingzhe, remember this. I obviously don't hate you, nor do I blame you. You have to live well. Only then Buwang and I will be happy.”

Mu Jingzhe looked into Old Master Ji's eyes and inevitably cried again. “Thank you, thank you, Grandpa. Buwang's gone, but I'm still here. I'll replace him and be devoted to you in the future. ”

He once asked Ji Buwang to help take care of Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng if he died. Now that he's not dead and Ji Buwang is gone, he'll keep Old Master Ji in Ji Buwang's place.

Old Master Ji extended a trembling hand and patted Mu Jingzhe on the hand. "Alright, it's settled then."

He thought that this was also Ji Buwang's intention. He wanted her to live and be devoted to his grandfather.

Upon seeing Old Master Ji, Mu Jingzhe looked extremely calm. He ate every meal and actively cooperated with the doctor's treatment.

His hand did not heal that quickly, but his mind slowly recovered and he also regained his peace of mind. The five children heaved a sigh of relief, but they still did not dare to mention any particular matter to Mu Jingzhe— Ji Buwang's funeral.

His funeral had to be arranged in the end, but Mu Jingzhe did not seem to fully accept it. She did not go to see Ji Buwang and did not mention him again, as if she was deliberately trying to forget him.

Then, she didn't cry anymore. He just continued to stare towards the funeral home in a daze. However, his condition was also not fine. Li Zhaodi and the others instead wished that he would cry more.

Still, it was a good thing that he was willing to eat and rest. They did not dare to say much to him.

However, Li Zhaodi quickly realized that Mu Jingzhe had not slept at all. He would fall asleep facing them at night, but when no one could see him, Mu Jingzhe would look towards the funeral home and would not fall asleep at all.

When Li Zhaodi found out, she started crying again. He doesn't know what to do.

After two days in the hospital, Li Zhaodi felt this could not continue. He felt it might be better for Mu Jingzhe to be sent home and go home. This way, he would not miss Ji Buwang too much.

Upon hearing that he was about to be discharged, Mu Jingzhe fell silent for a moment and could not help but look at the funeral home. After a long time, he nodded.

He kept thinking that if he stayed in the hospital, as Shao Dong had said, Ji Buwang would be next door, so he did not want to leave. However, he agreed, as he could not just stay there forever.

Mu Jingzhe agreed to be discharged and everyone helped him pack. Little Bei helped Mu Jingzhe button up and took out a comb to comb his hair.

“Former mama combed my hair. I'll comb Mommy's hair in the future.”

"Good." Mu Jingzhe smiled. Little Bei helped comb his hair seriously and realized that suddenly there was a lot of white hair hidden under his normal hair color.

Shao Dong's hands trembled upon hearing that. After a while, he said, “It's okay. He will be fine in the future.”

Maybe Mommy was very sad, so she had grown some white hair. It will be fine in the future. It had happened to Xiao Wu before, but he recovered later.

Mu Jingzhe returned home after a long time. He had only been gone for a few days, yet he felt like he was in a dream. When he returned to his room, he was stunned when he saw the red shoes on the ground.

Little Bei followed him and was stunned for a moment when he saw this as well. A hint of frustration flashed in his eyes. When he turned around, he saw the little 'happiness' character in the window again and his eyes were filled with helplessness.

The date of Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buwang's wedding has been determined. Because it was too far from the capital, many of Mu Jingzhe's acquaintances were here. Moreover, this was the Ji Family's hometown, and their old residence was also there, so the wedding would be held in the county town.

The Mahar of Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng had long been sent to the old residence.

In the old residence, arrangements had been made long ago. Uncle Li had been waiting for many years to finally be able to see Ji Buwang get married. He had made a lot of preparations, and his entire house was red in color.

Not wanting to be defeated in this aspect, after Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buwang went to visit the maternal grandmother, Li Zhaodi specifically came to decorate the new house. Since Mu Jingzhe was already used to living there, it had been decided that she would get ready for her wedding there.

Li Zhaodi, Shao Dong, and the others had decorated the place together. They had hung red lanterns, red silk, and wedding decorations from the windows. Li Zhaodi personally cut out the decorations of the pieces of paper, and everything looked very festive.

Red wedding blankets and red candles have also been brought in, just waiting to be placed. They have even closed some carefully selected wedding photos.

Originally, Li Zhaodi was still unsure how many gold bracelets Mu Jingzhe should wear when the time came. He did not expect Ji Buwang to suddenly have an accident. Now, he no longer needed to worry about that.

Before Mu Jingzhe was discharged, Li Zhaodi had recalled this arrangement and asked Mu Teng and the children to remove it.

In her hurry to leave, she forgot about the red shoes and the little 'happiness' character in the corner of the window.

When Little Bei saw the red 'happiness' character, his eyes were suddenly filled with anxiety. Afraid that Mu Jingzhe would be sad, he quickly grabbed onto her. In the end, he wasn't tall enough and he hit something on the table in front of the window.

As soon as the items on the table fell, so did the others. Little Bei's eyes widened as he saw Mu Jingzhe turn around and look at him. He also saw the word 'happiness' in the corner.

As Little Bei was perplexed, Mu Jingzhe suddenly smiled. “Do not be nervous. It looks pretty good. Leave it there.”

Mu Jingzhe walked over to unpack his belongings, but he did not manage to do so. As soon as he moved, the items on the table fell. More importantly, the doll on the table also fell down.

There just happens to be a mechanism. The puppet that Mu Jingzhe was trying to release fell to the ground violently. It shattered into pieces, and the box underneath it also broke.

The broken doll happened to be Ji Buwang's puppet. It shattered into pieces now, silently symbolizing something.

Mu Jingzhe heard Little Bei's apology, but nothing came to his mind. He subconsciously said that it was fine, but there was only one thought in his mind — Buwang was destroyed.

He went to take the doll and see what was hidden inside. It was a white jade ring.

This is what he gives later. It was rather large and looked like a man's design. Mu Jingzhe picked up the broken mechanical box and saw a faint trace of a kata—'lai'.

If Mu Jingzhe had formed this character outside, the box would have opened. Unfortunately, he had tried for several years but had not managed to do it properly.. Now, the door opened in an unexpected way.
