Too High to Reach

Mo Yi is the fifth daughter of an ordinary family in the capital. Her lifelong wishes:

To marry a blue-robed scholar;

To live in a sunny little courtyard;

If she could also open a...

122. Chapter 122 What else can I do?

Chapter 122 What else can I do?

It seemed that Mo Yi was about to be hit by the stick.

Mo Fan rushed over and protected her.

The crutch fell and hit me.

It doesn’t hurt…

One reason is that old man Wang is weak and has no strength, and the other is that he doesn't dare to hit really hard.

But I can't help being angry because my daughter still has to live with the Mo family and I can't really turn against them.

But when Zhuang saw her son being beaten in her own home, she got anxious and asked, "What are you doing?"

Mo Ruhai, who was blocked behind, saw that if Mo Fan hadn't blocked her, his daughter would really be beaten, and he became anxious.

Pointing at Mr. Wang, he said, "How can this be possible? You openly commit murder in the Mohist school."

"Disrespect for the elderly."

"A grandfather who beats his granddaughter is truly unkind!"

As a man of letters, he really couldn't say anything more unpleasant!

But when Wang heard that he dared to say that about her father, she burst into tears!

"I won't live anymore! Mo Ruhai, kill me!" She stood up and lowered her head to bump into Mo Ruhai.

Seeing her act like this, the men of the Mohist School all blushed and turned pale, somewhat at a loss. Zhuang's face was ashen, and I'm afraid only Liu was watching and laughing...

Wang Xiujuan has a strong personality and is used to dominating others.

I originally thought that if I didn't teach Mo Ruhai a lesson this time, I was afraid that he would become even more arrogant in the future.

But he didn't expect Mo Ruhai to really go crazy and say such harsh words to his father. If he made a big fuss, it would be difficult to end, so he pulled his sister hard, "Okay! Let's talk it over nicely. Why are you acting like this in front of my wife and children?"

During this period of time, Mo Wen directed her discomfort towards Mo Yi, "Mo Yi, it's all because of you!" she said angrily.

"Mo Yi, was it you who instigated your father?" Wang Xiujuan also disliked Mo Yi.

"It's her!" Wang screamed.

"Don't blame my daughter! I'm her father, and everything she did was ordered by me. Who are you? Who gave you the power in the Mo family to discipline my Mo family's girls? Go away, go away, the Mo family doesn't welcome you!" Mo Ruhai yelled at the eldest aunt...

This guy is such a dog! Wang Xiujuan was speechless... How much have I done for your family?

I really want to go down and beat him myself.

Brother-in-law Qin had been watching from the side, not joining in the commotion, but he saw the situation getting out of control.

He finally yelled, "Okay, okay! Everybody be quiet! No more talking!"

The Wang family listened to him and suddenly quieted down. Even Wang Xiu'e, who was supported by her sister and Mo Wen, stopped crying.

"What's wrong with you today? Are you possessed? Miss Mo has entered the palace! This is such a great event that you should have set off firecrackers to let the ancestors know. But you guys quarreled so much that you even talked about divorce and divorce!

After a lifetime, five children, and even grandchildren soon, what are you still making a fuss about?"

Then, he looked at Wang Xiu'e with dissatisfaction, "Sister, if there is reason, please talk to her nicely. Look at you, what kind of person is this? Your daughter is about to get married, and you are teaching her like this? Will she cry, make a scene, and even hang herself in the Xu family in the future?"

If you have power and money, your words carry weight.

Wang burped and wiped her face with a handkerchief, not daring to cry anymore.

"Brother Mo, can you tell me what happened?" Brother-in-law Qin asked calmly.

Being treated with pretentiousness in my own home... Mo Rushan blushed, "Please sit down first! Zhuang, go get some refreshments."

Wang Wenjuan said to her sister, "Go wipe your face!" and took Wang away.

Mo Wen glanced at Mo Yi and followed him.

Mo Rushan then talked about Mo Yi's entry into the palace and the King of Qi.

The Wang family, including Brother-in-law Qin, felt extremely regretful after hearing this.

This girl Mo Yi is so lucky, why did she have a quarrel with them, father and daughter?

Thinking about how to save the situation without losing face, "Brother Mo, you are right. Mo Yi entered the palace because of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi. Brother-in-law, you don't have to be like this. That's His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, who is worlds apart from us. Apart from anything else, even if the prince wants Mo Yi to enter the palace as a concubine... do we dare to say no?"

"I dare! I..." Mo Ruhai stiffened his neck. Mo Yi quickly pulled hard, and he swallowed the words: "I told him yesterday."

Brother-in-law Qin didn't know what he was talking about. "No matter what, if we hook up with the prince... the Mo family will be different."

Mo Rushan felt relieved after hearing this. He could imagine what would happen if his colleagues and superiors knew about this...

"There is a saying that goes like this: Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from heaven. For a family like ours, let alone the Queen and the Prince, even if the chief officer says something, we have no choice but to obey and be grateful.

You seem to be gentle on weekdays, why are you so upset today? The old man and the old lady usually keep you and the children in their hearts, and they will always remember good things. If you continue like this, I'm afraid you will hurt the old man's heart..."

Mo Rushan said: "These days, the whole family is on edge, too nervous. Sometimes we speak without thinking, but in fact, it's nothing serious..."

"Brother Mo, you are the head of the family. You have to hold on to him at the critical moment." Brother-in-law Qin also gave Mo Rushan a reminder.

"Brother Qin is right." Mo Rushan smiled bitterly.

"Brother-in-law, look at those two elderly people. They were supposed to come yesterday, but the old man was not feeling well and didn't come... We are all old, how can we make them worry?" Brother-in-law Qin spoke sincerely from the bottom of his heart.

Mo Rushan nodded in agreement.

But Mo Ruhai is really a stubborn person. Once his brain is tied up, it cannot be untied.

Although Brother-in-law Qin acted just and sincere.

But in Mo Ruhai's opinion, this person was still as self-righteous and condescending as usual, treating himself like a junior.

Therefore, he did not feel the slightest recognition or emotion.

But at the same time, he felt that he was a well-educated and sensible person and would never do anything rude.

So he stood up, saluted to the two elders of the Wang family, and said, "It's my fault for making you two old people anxious!" Then he sat back.

His attitude doesn't seem like he is admitting his mistake!

Mo Rushan quickly took over the conversation, "Okay, okay! Just as Brother Qin said, this is a great happy event for both the Mo and Wang families! Second brother, Yi Yi is very blessed. You better stop making trouble. No matter how blessed you are, you can't stand constant noise."

"Yes, brother. I was wrong." Mo Ruhai felt better quickly when Mo Yi was mentioned.

"My two elders, the gifts given by the empress are still there. Would you like to take a look?"

"You must go and see it!"

What else can I do? I can't be too serious.

So, everyone was friendly and accompanied the two old people to look at the gifts.

... Two boxes each of ginseng, deer antler, bird's nest, and donkey-hide gelatin. Four rolls of fabric, a number of rouge, scented powder, and nectar, all in very exquisite packaging.

This is considered a relatively heavy reward.

Adding this to a girl's dowry can make it even more luxurious.

Old Master Wang and Old Lady Wang had also seen and tasted it before, and they exclaimed: "After all, it was given by the Empress. Look at the quality of it!"

"Well, the ginseng and deer antlers, the old man and Brother Qin take them. The bird's nest and donkey-hide gelatin, the old lady and Mrs. Qin take them..." Mo Rushan distributed them.

When Zhuang and Liu heard this, their eyes widened.

Liu was about to shout, but was stopped by Mo Yuan next to her, who whispered, "Mom, the Wang family won't take it."

Of course the Wang family likes these things!

But I have to save face for my daughter, so no matter how jealous I am, I can't take it.

It was Brother-in-law Qin who said, "Thank you, Brother Mo, for your kindness. You two old people don't really care about these things. As long as your children can live a good life, that's better than anything else."

Wang Xiujuan hated Mo Ruhai to death, but she had to pretend, "Yes! These are the best things. The Mo family can keep them as gifts, or give them to their daughters when they get married, it will be very face-saving. Sister, Dad is weak, we will accompany them back first. You guys take care of yourself and stop making trouble!"
