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...
Chapter 124 Mo Yuan is cunning
"With so many good things, you don't even bother to share them. Could it be that our third room has nothing to do with it?"
Liu complained to Mo Yuan in the room.
After talking for a long time, Mo Yuan didn't respond.
"And Mo Yi. What a loser... If this opportunity was yours, you would have gotten it long ago! I'm so anxious. How come such a good thing happened to her? It's a waste, isn't it? Yuanyuan, why don't you say anything?"
Mo Yuan suddenly said in a cold voice: "Did you listen to what I said?"
"Ah? I, I'm listening..."
"I told you a few days ago that you should not be so short-sighted and impatient. Look at how you are laughing today. If the scene wasn't so chaotic and others saw you, how could you have gained anything? Can't you just go back to your room and laugh?"
Liu was embarrassed.
"Dajue Temple, if I wasn't worried about you, I would have followed you to the mountain. If I..." She paused. What's the point of saying those things now?
"Those ginseng bird's nests are good, but if I give them to you, what will it change?"
"So...what's important?"
"The most important thing is that Mo Yi enters the palace!"
Liu's eyes lit up, "Yes, yes! As long as she can hook up with you, you will have a chance. With your looks and abilities, it won't be difficult to step on her and get to the top."
Mo Yuan smiled mysteriously, "If that's the case, I will certainly not be lenient. But how do you know that by stepping on her, I can get to the top? I don't even know where this opportunity came from... How can I be so reckless?"
"You're right. So what should we do?"
"We'll take it one step at a time. Now, I want to help her to the best of my ability."
After saying that, Mo Yuan glanced at Liu indifferently.
Mrs. Liu was shocked. She knew her daughter was capable, but she didn't know she could think so deeply.
"Before, when you made a scene at home, your daughter did not stop you. That was because: within the Mohist circle, there were benefits to be gained, so why not make a scene? But now it is different. We have to break out of the Mohist circle, so we naturally have to look further! Don't just focus on the small piece of land in front of you..."
At this time, someone outside the house called softly: "Fourth Miss!"
Mo Yuan went out immediately. There was a maid standing in the yard. When she saw her come out, she leaned over and whispered a few words in her ear.
Mo Yuan nodded approvingly, took out a tael of silver from her pocket and gave it to her. The old woman took it and left happily.
Liu leaned over the crack in the door and saw: "Yuanyuan, what's wrong?"
Mo Yuan opened her mouth and swallowed her words back.
This mother can no longer keep up with me. If I tell her, it would ruin my own business if I accidentally let it slip.
Mo Wen... Humph, I really overestimated her before.
He actually harmed Mo Yi when she was about to have a bright future...
Not to mention that she is her own sister, if Mo Yi really entered the palace, even as a concubine, she would enjoy endless wealth and glory, and could also support the Mo family.
First of all, my uncle will benefit. If he just gets promoted, won’t everyone else benefit from it?
The following Moda, Mofan and Mobao can be considered as the support.
Her mother's family is strong, so doesn't that mean she has a strong position in the Xu family?
Even if her own sister is a concubine and is a bit of a hindrance to her, the benefits she gets cannot make up for it, right?
I would rather not have this benefit than prevent Mo Yi from rising to prominence...
Jealousy made her see the end of her future at a glance!
Once she entered the Xu family and encountered real trouble, she realized how powerful it was!
By comparison...
Yesterday, when Second Uncle asked Mo Yi to go with him, Second Aunt said such harsh words, but Mo Yi still followed him without hesitation.
She didn't think about it: Second Uncle had nowhere to go and there was the threat of dowry.
If it were me...I would probably just cry and persuade my father to stay instead of going with him.
But Mo Yi left!
She is either stupid or has great ideas. People like her have a bright future...
"Mother, please don't worry about it. I have a plan in mind..."
After that, he went straight to Mo Yi's house.
"Is fifth sister in the room?" She spoke in her usual coquettish voice.
Mo Yi drank some hot water and sweated a little under the quilt, just when he felt better. When he heard the sound, he quickly asked Xiangzhi to go and greet them.
"Fourth sister, please come in!"
Mo Yi stood up and tidied himself.
Seeing that she had just gotten out of bed, Mo Yuan chuckled, "Are you sleeping again?"
"Why is my sister here?"
"The civil and military drama at home makes me terrified. I guess you're not having a good time either, so I came to see you." She sat down on the kang and looked at Mo Yi with a smile.
"Yesterday, my feet were all rubbed raw. Today, the same thing happened again. It was like a dream." Mo Yi said with a smile.
"Let me have a dream like this!" After saying that, he rolled his eyes at Mo Yi.
"What's good about it? What doesn't belong to us is just a dream after all."
Now that the two of them are together, they are really real and don't pretend anymore.
"I don't agree with what you said. People always strive for higher positions!"
"I hope to just live an ordinary and stable life." Mo Yi took the hot towel handed to him by Xiangzhi and wiped his face.
Mo Yuan sneered: "Even if you want to, you have to see if others will let you. Isn't that what Second Uncle thought? It's a pity that Second Aunt won't let you. At any time, you can't count on others, you have to hold on to others!"
"Is it that easy?" Mo Yi smiled bitterly. Asking her to catch that gentleman?
In front of that person, the entire Mohist School is like an ant, right? He would not bother to consider the feelings of the ants at all...
"That requires people with similar ideas to help each other! Mo Yi, I'm here because I have news about you." Mo Yuan blinked with a wicked smile.
"What news about me?"
"But I have to ask you for something before I tell you. Can you agree to it?"
"What request?" Mo Yi knew that Mo Yuan was very good at finding out information.
I don’t know what happened again…
Seeing that she didn't speak, Mo Yuan asked again, "You don't believe me?"
"No, it's not. I believe you, sister. I'm just a little surprised. I don't know what you want? Can I do it? If I agree now, I won't be able to do it in the future. Sister will say I'm a liar."
"Actually, this request also has a prerequisite." Mo Yuan smiled faintly, "That is: you have to have a promising future. If you have no promising future, what else can I ask of you? Ask you for a piece of clothing or a piece of jewelry?" She looked at Mo Yi with contempt.
"I don't know what you want to say, sister... Well, I can only say that within my ability, I will promise you one thing!"
"One thing... that's fine. I can't tell you the specific request right now, but the general idea is that I want you to support me when you become successful."
"Of course! I just don't know what you mean by promising..."
"I'm glad you have this intention. Regarding this matter..." Mo Yuan leaned close to Mo Yi and whispered, "Mo Wen is instigating Second Aunt to arrange a marriage for you!"
Mo Yi was stunned for just a moment.
To be honest, it wasn't too surprising.
"Second aunt asked her to write a letter to my aunt in Tongzhou, and should also include your engagement letter, so that my aunt can look for a relative over there and settle it immediately. As for what kind of relative to look for, I will let my aunt decide directly."
Now, Mo Yi was a little bit unbelievable...
Thinking of her father shouting at the top of his lungs...as a wife, she really didn't take her husband's words seriously.
Let the aunt directly decide her niece's marriage... As a mother, she really doesn't take her daughter's lifelong event seriously.
"Aunt..."
My mother and my aunt had a very good relationship because my mother exchanged one of her properties in Tongzhou with my aunt.
It is easy for my aunt to take care of.
In fact, it was a matter of satisfaction for both parties. But my mother was cunning and it seemed as if my aunt owed my mother a favor.
Her aunt was a good person and was nice to her, so they were very close.
"Has the letter been sent?" Mo Yi murmured.
"I don't know whether the gift was delivered or not, and I don't know everything. Hurry up and think of a way. If I really arrange it for you, even if it doesn't work out in the end, it will affect your reputation. If you want to move forward, you will be tripped up."
Mo Yi stroked his frowning brow with his fingers.
"Sometimes, I really can't figure it out. My entry into the palace was obviously a good thing, so why did it cause several families to fight? Maybe Mo Wen is right, it's all my fault!"
"Haha! You still don't understand. Mo Wen doesn't want you to live better than her. Second Aunt wants her husband to be prosperous. You should listen to her in everything!"
"Fourth sister, I don't understand you either."
"What's there to not understand? I just want wealth and glory! I'll go to whoever can give me benefits!"
“I believe this!”
"In fact, it's me who can't see through you! You're usually silent and not outstanding. Yet, you've got so many, such good opportunities! So... now I'm coming for you!"
She came close to Mo Yi and blinked her beautiful eyes cunningly.
Mo Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly...
