Li Rouniang was beaten to death by her husband. After carrying a child for ten months, she died with her baby. Her two other unfortunate daughters also met tragic ends: one was married off to a sic...
Mo Bei just smiled and didn't say anything else. He chatted with him for a while about the past few days. He knew that Erni had recognized Zhang San as her godfather, so the two of them naturally had something in common.
Mo Bei wanted to promote Zhang San to work under him in the capital, and Zhang San didn't refuse, saying he would go back and discuss it with his wife. Mo Bei praised him for this, saying it was very good that he knew to consult with his wife. Then, he shamelessly took the opportunity to go home with Zhang San.
When Madam Zhang returned home, she saw Mo Bei and Zhang San sitting together chatting and laughing. Her eyes widened as she ran over and asked, "General Mo, what are you doing in my house?"
Mo Bei smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you are so humorous and witty. Brother Zhang and I hit it off immediately, and since Erni has recognized you two as her parents, I must pay you a visit myself."
Zhang San introduced with a smile: "My wife is a very forthright person. General Mo wants me to go to the capital. What do you think?"
Madam Zhang's eyes widened in surprise; she hadn't expected Mo Bei to come for this very reason.
“Of course we can, and if Rou Niang agrees, we can discuss it.” Zhang Niangzi was unusually clever, knowing that General Mo’s real intentions were not what they seemed.
Mo Bei was delighted to hear this and quickly said to Madam Zhang, "I sincerely want to take Rou Niang to the capital, but Rou Niang refused to go with me today. I don't understand why, so I came to ask for your advice, Madam Zhang. I hope you will be kind enough to enlighten me!"
Seeing Mo Bei's extremely humble attitude, Zhang Niangzi felt reassured. It seemed she harbored deep feelings for Rou Niang. She then explained Rou Niang's concerns to Mo Bei, who naturally swore he wouldn't care about such things. At the same time, he understood why Rou Niang had rejected him.
As long as you're not heartless towards him, nothing is a problem.
