Chapter 145 Happy

Mo Wen finally admitted that Mo Yi had flown out of the Mo family and reached a height that he could not reach at the moment.

So, how should I get along with her?

Suddenly I thought of something and got up and left the house.

Mo Yuan's door was open, and the room was in a mess. She and Liu were tinkering with something.

"Third Aunt..." Mo Wen came, "What is Fourth Sister doing?"

"Third sister is here? Learn from Hongyan and the others how to put things in order, tidy up."

"Can I help you?"

Mo Yuan laughed secretly in her heart: This person must have something to do.

"No need! I packed it myself and I know where it is. Mom, go have some tea and take a rest!"

Mrs. Liu has been in a surprisingly good temper recently. She knew that Mo Wen came for something and wanted to listen to what was going on, but was sent away by her daughter.

If it was in the past, she would definitely say something unpleasant to Mo Wen, but now...

Just go, I'll come back and ask later.

Mo Wen looked at Mo Yuan... She had changed a lot. Although she was still charming, she was not so frivolous anymore.

"I came here to ask, what are you going to give my fourth sister for her birthday tomorrow? Let's discuss it. We are sisters, so let's not be too different."

Mo Yuan made a face and said, "I am a poor man, how can I give her anything rare? Besides, she doesn't even care about ordinary things now."

She spoke sincerely, but Mo Wen felt upset.

Mo Yuan thought again: "A few days ago, Aunt Liu came and gave two bottles of perfume. They smelled very elegant. I will give her one bottle! You don't know how expensive these are in those stores."

"It's not cheap. I've been shopping around a lot these days and I've found the price..."

"How is the dowry preparation going?"

"I'm a little overwhelmed. There are too many things to do. I wanted to go to class with you guys, but where can I find the time?"

Mo Yuan smiled secretly in her heart, but nodded to show that she understood. She then talked about her views on dowry and asked, "What are you giving Mo Yi? Forget about perfume and powder... Look at this, I extorted it from her. How fine is this powder? It's shiny and bright when applied on the face. There's only such a small box in the shop... It costs more than twenty taels of silver!"

"These things are expensive. I have a set of dyes on hand. She likes painting, so if she doesn't like it, I'll give it to her."

"This is a good idea!" Mo Yuan said indifferently.

"In the blink of an eye, we have all grown up." Mo Wen sighed.

"Yes, in a few months, you will be able to get married..."

Mo Wen smiled and said, "You've come at a good time! Your uncle got a promotion, and your second brother got a good job. You can go to the banquet with your fifth sister. Later, I can also invite you to the Xu family. Besides, when it comes to marriage, you'll have more connections!"

"That's true!" Mo Yuan was very proud: "In the future, the three of us sisters should help each other. No matter what happened in the past, after we get married and are no longer together, we will only think about each other's goodness."

"That's right."

These are exactly what Mo Wen wanted to hear.

This was a roundabout way of doing things. She was unwilling to lower her status to ease the relationship with Mo Yi, but she could win over Mo Yuan to achieve her goal.

After chatting for a few more words, Mo Wen left.

Seeing her leave, Mo Yuan smiled contemptuously...

Do you regret having a falling out with Mo Yi?

Want to use me, naturally ease the relationship.

Haha, Mo Wen, you think too much.

It's just a trivial matter. We are sisters, is there any need to beat around the bush?

If it were me, I would go straight to Mo Yi and say: I regretted what I did before and I want to apologize to you. From now on, we sisters should be close and support each other...

One-on-one, quick and easy. How good is that?

I really don't understand. She is such a smart person, but she has to resort to trickery. It's okay for her, but my second aunt is so straightforward that she can't lower herself...

Normally, she would be listened to in the dining room, but now, she has nothing to say!

"I'm really impressed by you guys..." She completely forgot that this kind of roundabout way of playing around... was her favorite.

I just picked up my things to pack them up, and then put them down again.

The person I met in the embroidery workshop that day was the son of the Bo family. He started chatting with me...

It just looks a bit ugly. What's its name? What treasure?

Being able to go out is different! When I was at the Zhao family, those ladies looked at me a lot... Later, I will ask Mo Yi to talk to Zhao Mama and ask her to think of something for me!

She was very happy.

Mo Yi is also about to have something wonderful happen...

Early in the morning on the birthday, Nanny Zhao came with the maids.

She asked the maid to comb her hair and change her clothes.

Seeing that it was still early, the two of them sat down to drink tea and talk.

The maids went to comb Mo Yuan's hair.

Mo Wen's initiative to show goodwill worked wonders, and Mo Yuan called her over as well.

"The prince gave you a birthday gift and asked me to bring it over." Nanny Zhao took out a brocade box and handed it to Mo Yi.

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Mo Yi's face turned red as she opened it and took a look.

Mutton-fat jade bracelet?!

It's really good at first glance! It's wide, round, and a perfect item...

It's whiter and smoother than the one worn by Madam Zhao. It should be similar to the one worn by the wife of Marquis Jing'an.

This is mine?! I almost laughed out loud.

"This is really beautiful. I'm a little embarrassed that it's so expensive." Mo Yi picked it up and felt the warmth in his hands. He stared at it and said a few polite words.

"This is indeed a good item, but what's more valuable is that it belongs to our Queen..."

"Ah..." Mo Yi heard it and hurriedly held it tightly, fearing that something might go wrong.

"Originally they were a pair. When the queen was in her boudoir, she loved to wield swords and guns. One time she forgot to take them off and accidentally broke one of them. After that, she was very careful when she wore this one."

"This is too valuable..." Mo Yi quickly put it back into the brocade box.

"Miss, there is no need to be so. The Queen has many good things. But what the Queen cares about most is our Prince. I hope that you can treat the Prince sincerely."

"Yes. Mo Yi remembered it." Her face turned slightly red and she agreed solemnly.

"That day at the Zhao family, you met the prince's two concubines and three children. I haven't told you about the prince's palace before, but now that I have some time, I will tell you a little bit."

Mo Yi closed the brocade box and placed it steadily on the table. "Madam, please speak."

"The prince's previous wife was named Zhou Li, the mother of Princess Wenxiu. She was born into a noble family, was very beautiful, and had quite a lot of talent. At the time, she was the most outstanding lady from a noble family in the capital.

She was raised in pampered condition, was particular about her clothes and food, had a naive temperament, and loved romance. With the prince...

I'm sure you can see that the prince has devoted himself to his official duties and has never stopped since he was a child.

The two of them...somehow they don't understand each other.

Princess Zhou was already weak, and she fell ill after giving birth to Xiangxiang. At that time, I was away on important business, and the prince was not in the capital. The princess went to the hot spring manor to recuperate, but she didn't expect that she would suddenly become seriously ill within two days. It was far from the capital, and the local doctors couldn't save her. What a pity..."

"Concubine Feng is the prince's sister-in-law and the distant cousin of the former Crown Princess. Back then... something happened to the Feng family, and the prince brought them back and handed them over to me..."

Madam Zhao briefly explained the situation, "Concubine Feng has been in charge of the household affairs in the mansion for several years."

Mo Yi's eyes blinked.

Zhao Ma saw it but didn't explain anything. She then said about Concubine Tian, ​​"This concubine's family is a big landlord. They own a canal, a escort agency, a salt field, a tea plantation, and a silver shop. So many businesses!"

"Is it the prince's purse?" Mo Yi asked.

"Mutual benefit and mutual assistance." Nanny Zhao looked at her reproachfully.

"Mo Yi was out of line... I've only seen Concubine Tian twice, and she always wore good things."

Madam Zhao shook her head helplessly. This girl only knew how to look at this. "Concubine Tian's dowry is well managed by herself. The Tian family still provides for her, so she is not short of money."

"Good day..." Mo Yi smiled.

"She is indeed lucky. There are many things that the girl has never come into contact with before. For example, in the Tian family, when the girl was in the boudoir, her shoes were sewn with oriental pearls, which was extremely luxurious. But after getting married, there was no good marriage. She became a concubine, a concubine for an old man, or the stupid and disabled son of an official or a rich man..."

"But, why is that?"

"It's just family interests! Besides, the prince has three concubines. In the future, there may be new people entering the mansion..."

Seeing Mo Yi's shy and somewhat helpless look, "The Mo family rarely has concubines and illegitimate children. But in some families, this is perfectly normal. It can't be said to be good or bad, but in life, there is always something you need to adapt to..."

"From a secular perspective, the prince is of noble status and handsome. Zhou Li is a lady from a noble family and has outstanding talents. They should be an enviable marriage. But they are not...

Although you are young, you are smart, calm, know when to advance and when to retreat, and have your own opinions.

The prince treats you differently. There is one more thing...you will know tomorrow. But, the prince..."

Aunt Zhao looked somewhat sad.

Mo Yi's heart tightened when he thought of the news Liang You had found out.

"I hope you can accompany the prince and go on peacefully and smoothly!"

"Mo Yi understands..."

"Hey Yi, Aunt Zhao!" Mo Yuan came over excitedly, pulling Mo Wen.

Mo Wen's smile to Mo Yi and Aunt Zhao became much more sincere and friendly.

Both of them combed their hair, put on makeup, and changed their clothes...

"Do we look good?" Mo Yuan called out, and Mo Wen felt a little embarrassed.

"My two sisters, you are so pretty!" Mo Yi had to admit that they were indeed pretty.

Zhao Ma smiled and said, "Girls from the Mo family all have good hair... You know, this is a great advantage. You can style your hair in many different ways and wear more jewelry. If you have less hair and your jewelry is heavy, you will suffer."

Near noon, all the family members arrived.

Even Moda has come back. This time, he feels that he should take it seriously. He can't give him calligraphy copybooks anymore, so he should give him pens instead.

Zhou frowned when she saw this, opened her dowry box, and took out a very nice hairpin...

Wang felt awkward in her heart and her face, and she stuffed a purse with fifty taels of silver in it to Mo Yi, "You go out more often now, if you need a reward or something, don't be stingy."

This tone...

The whole family sat there happily and were quite satisfied with the meal.

Mobao gave the school the latest popular toys. Both little kids drew a beautiful picture.

Anyway, everyone has thoughtfully prepared gifts.

Only Mo Qing, with empty hands, said, "I am young and poor..."
