Chapter 161 Premarital Anxiety

Moda came back from college and prepared for the autumn examination.

As soon as I got home, my wife was giving birth.

"Midwife, go call the midwife!" "Hurry up and boil some hot water!"

"Hey Mo Qing, get out of the way!"

"Quick, quick, quick! Hold on!"

"Hurry up and make some ginseng soup!"

Wang was a person who loved to make a fuss whenever something happened. This was her first grandchild, and the whole yard was filled with her screams, causing everyone to fall to the ground.

Moda looked nervous and was walking around outside the delivery room.

Mo Yi couldn't do the work in his hands anymore, so he ran over to accompany his brother, "Brother, don't worry."

She comforted him dryly, but in her heart she was thinking, these days are really, all converging together, "I think my eldest brother will definitely pass the imperial examination and have a son, double happiness!"

"It doesn't matter what kind of baby it is, just give birth to it quickly! Don't just keep enduring like this." Moda completely lost his usual composure.

After a whole night of tossing and turning, at dawn, Mo's eldest grandson was born.

After washing and wrapping the baby, she was brought out. Wang rushed over and hugged him, while Mo Ruhai watched from the side.

Both of them were delighted that they were finally not as sullen as before.

When the news spread, gifts arrived.

Needless to say, the Wang family came with all their people and gifts.

Nanny Zhao also came on the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, and brought a gold-inlaid jade lock made by a famous master.

At first glance, you can tell it's quite expensive.

Mo Yi was also quite surprised: She had seen this thing before, it was from the Qizhenlou, made by a master, and the purchase price was over a thousand taels...

In addition, there are six pairs of gold and silver ingots, furs, supplements, and a whole host of other things.

It surpassed all the carefully prepared things of the Wang family.

Zhao Ma Ma also said, "With a new child, the family will definitely be very lively. The eldest son will soon be leaving the examination room, so it is inevitable that he will be distracted if he lives at home. The prince specially asked me to arrange a small courtyard. It is very close to the examination room, has everything you need, and has people to serve you. The eldest son should move there."

Everyone was extremely excited and expressed their gratitude.

Then, Mo Yi also discovered: After the banquet, the prince came over very quickly and asked someone to send something over.

Especially all kinds of fresh fruits. You know, chicken, duck, fish and meat are common, but fruits are not common, they are the food eaten by dignitaries. This time, the Mo family followed her and tasted a lot of fresh food.

She also felt that when Aunt Zhao spoke to her now, her attitude was particularly gentle and respectful, not as official as before.

In the midst of the excitement, Zhang Debao arrived, baring his teeth and shouting congratulations, and he also brought a cart of things.

A few days ago, he actually went to the Imperial Guards and was with Mo Fan.

Under his sugar-coated bullets, Mo Fan treated him as a good brother.

If nothing happens, he will follow Mo Fan home.

Mo Yuan treated him neither too close nor too distant, chatting and laughing with him. She accepted his compliments and would praise him to the sky with just a few simple words.

But there is no real one, not even a single definite word...

Zhang Debao still has no regrets.

The Xu family sent Nanny Xu to perform the third-day bathing ceremony and say the proper words of congratulations.

There was nothing else, including Xu Ke's figure.

With this comparison, Mo Wen's already uneasy heart became even more uncertain.

Then, Moda came off the field with full confidence.

In three days, it will be Mo Wen's wedding.

Mo Ruhai, among the good goods that he was reluctant to sell, carefully selected two items and planned to give them to Mo Wen and his son-in-law. The new shop's business was better than before, so he planned to give another 1,000 taels of silver.

After making up his mind, he went to discuss it with Mo Yi, who nodded in agreement: "Once we reopen the shop of Qizhenlou, I'm afraid we won't be able to hide it from my family and mother."

"Dad knows, don't worry!"

Mo Wen was quite surprised when he received the private money given by his father.

Being as selfish as she is, she felt a little embarrassed. "Dad, my daughter's dowry is not small. My uncle picked out the best gifts from the recent gifts our family received and gave them to me. I know you don't have much money, so you can use it for yourself."

"If your father gives it to you, you will naturally be able to do it."

"My sister is getting married too, please save some for her..."

"Don't worry about Mo Yi. She can handle it herself! Besides, these things are as meaningless in the palace as a stone in water. And you are in the Xu family, with two mothers-in-law, many sisters-in-law, and many servants. You have to take care of everything and spend money everywhere."

Mo Wen felt uncomfortable after hearing this, and her anxiety deepened.

Recently, several major events at home are too obvious to compare.

Your Highness, Prince Qi, and Zhang Debao... Zhang Debao is nothing yet! Look at how he is running around.

Look at Xu Ke again...

The uneasiness in my heart is becoming increasingly difficult to suppress.

Are the sisters just too lucky?

Or is it that Xu Lang treats me too indifferently?

Unable to sit still any longer, she went to find Mo Yi.

Without being polite, she said directly: "Sister, I have something to ask Aunt Zhao. I wonder if she is available."

Mo Yi felt that Mo Wen looked very bad, and quickly said, "I'll ask Bai Mei to ask."

Bai Mei went out for a while and came back quickly: "Madam Zhao asked Miss Mo San to come home for a chat."

It was the room where Mo Yi had his class, and it was Mo Wen’s first time there.

Aunt Zhao put down the account in her hand and stood up to greet her, "It's a mess here, young lady, please sit down wherever you want!"

"Excuse me, Madam. This is the tangerine peel that my uncle just brought. It tastes bitter at first, but it makes my throat feel very comfortable after I drink it."

"You are thoughtful, young lady. If you have anything to say, please tell me directly."

After the two of them sat down, Nanny Zhao asked.

Mo Wen was a little hesitant, not knowing what to say.

Nanny Zhao didn't rush her. She lit the incense and started making tea.

The smell of cigarettes made Mo Wenyao feel much more relaxed. "I'm anxious to come see you, but I don't know where to start. Maybe it's because I'm getting married soon, and I have a lot of things to do. My mind is in a mess and I feel uneasy. I can't figure it out..."

Aunt Zhao smiled, "Every woman will have this feeling when she gets married. My husband and I have worked together since we were young. We know each other very well, but we just fell in love with each other. But before we got married, I was also nervous. I even got angry with him for no reason."

"Really?" Mo Wen asked curiously.

"Of course it's true. You will change from being a girl loved by your parents to a housewife who has to take care of your husband, serve your parents-in-law, manage household affairs, and socialize with the outside world. In the future, you will have children. One day, when you go out and come in, your status will change. You will definitely be nervous."

"Before, you thought about how outstanding Mr. Xu was, and you were smug about your marriage. But now, you have to face living with him day and night. There will be friendship, but more importantly, you have to deal with family matters, as well as his temper and pickyness. There are even concubines.

Besides, it is not easy to be a daughter-in-law under the mother-in-law. Even the two Madam Xu have a good reputation. "

"Yes..." Hearing about the concubine, Mo Wen clenched his hands again, "Madam Xu, I met her once at the Queen Mother's birthday party last time. She seemed to be a well-educated and respectable person. As long as you don't do anything out of line when dealing with her, she won't treat you badly."

"I have met the old lady of the Xu family and Madam Xu before. The old lady came from a prominent family and had a rich dowry. She was a little proud when she was young, but she became much gentler as she got older. She had a smooth life and was naturally kind to others.

Madam Xu, you have three sons, and they are all very successful. So you are confident and knowledgeable. There is no bad rumor about these two. Your two sisters-in-law are also girls from respectable families. You can rest assured about these things. "

"yes……"

"Do you have any doubts, girl?"

Mo Yuan didn't know what to say, and she really couldn't say it.

When I got engaged to him, I felt that he and I were attracted to each other!

But later, some...

How to put it? She couldn't even describe it herself, so how could she ask Aunt Zhao?

Am I being too pretentious?

She has analyzed the marriages of people around her, including her parents, and she will not make the same mistakes again.

The confidence and pride I had when I got this marriage seemed to be gone now.

He became the wind passing by the kite, invisible and untouchable.

She was silent for a long time...

"Master Xu is an outstanding doctor in the capital," Madam Zhao took the initiative to say.

"It's not just about his family background and looks. What's more valuable is that he is dedicated to his career and willing to endure hardships.

Girl, you have to know that those with similar status to him are almost all the dandies in the capital. They live a lavish life and hang out with friends all day. The smarter ones can rely on their families: they can build relationships, sell information, help people settle things, or buy shares or something.

The stupid ones only know how to eat, drink, gamble, play with hawks and ride horses. Therefore, Xu Ke is the most outstanding young man in every aspect!"

Hearing what Madam Zhao said, Mo Wen smiled slightly.

"Mo Wen, if you don't like what I'm going to say, just forget about it. Anyway, apart from the heavens and the earth, only you and I know what I'm saying."

Mo Wen clenched her hands again, "Madam, please speak..."
