Chapter 67 That won't work

"Mrs. Mo is so lucky! Her daughter and niece are both as beautiful as flowers."

Mrs. Hou said this sincerely.

She had been married to her husband for many years and had only one daughter and one son.

My husband is not interested in women and has only two concubines, neither of whom can give birth.

The daughter was already married. So when the son got into trouble, she couldn't even recruit a son-in-law. The family business that the father-in-law and husband had earned through fighting could only be used to support the clan members.

Fortunately, the young men are all pretty good.

After they entered the mansion, they were immediately taught by countless masters. Except for eating and sleeping, they used all their time to learn new things.

Liang You, with his appearance, temperament, talent, and way of dealing with people, is the one that suits her best. Moreover, he appears gentle on the surface, but is stubborn in his bones, which is quite similar to her son!

Although the time was not long, she had already made up her mind about him through contact and testing. Therefore, she was willing to take him with her when handling matters, and she also introduced him to the main leaders of the Liang Family Army.

As soon as he can manage a business, he will ask the emperor for a title.

Since I have this plan, I have to make the decision on his marriage as both the marquis's wife and the mother-in-law!

"Ma'am, you are too kind! They are just good-looking! They are obedient and well-behaved, and are quite popular with the elders!" Wang was actually able to brag in a roundabout way.

Mrs. Hou smiled and said, "Madam, have you met Mrs. Mo?" She turned and asked Madam Liang.

Mrs. Liang is not very old, and she looks even younger because she takes good care of herself. She is wearing a brown coat with shiny silver embroidery. She is covered in jewels and precious stones. She looks like a real lady.

When the Mo family came in, she just stared at them seriously, then turned around and whispered to the girl next to her.

Hearing the question from Madam Hou, she replied: "I have met Madam Mo once before, but we didn't talk much. These girls... this should be the first time I meet them..." She looked at Mo Wen with some confusion and smiled: "If Madam Mo hadn't introduced me, I would definitely not recognize them..."

Hmm. Mo Yi thought: This old lady's words really contain a lot of content! It shows that her relationship with the Mo family is very ordinary and she looks down on them. She also dislikes the fact that there are too many girls from the Mo family!

Mrs. Liang really meant this! She had met Wang, who was accompanied by Mo Wen at the time.

Mo Wen and Liang You are of similar age... Women are naturally sensitive to these things. Although she has never heard any gossip, she is sure that the Mo family is thinking about Liang You!

Later, I heard that Mo Wen was engaged to the Xu family.

But somehow, Liang You and Mo Yi got engaged again! So, the Mo family is determined to get it over with?

She didn't care too much at first, but Liang You is no longer the same as before! That's different. Why can he only marry a girl from the Mo family? !

Humph! It's obvious that you're here to meet someone. Why would a girl who's already engaged come here? Wang comes from a merchant family, she's really not particular! Thinking of this, there was a hint of sarcasm on her face.

Wang was not stupid either. Her heart was beating wildly for a few times. She felt a little regretful and thought that she had been a little hasty: Wenwen should just stay in the main hall.

But she was not shy and quickly explained, "I'm sorry to make you laugh, old lady. My eldest daughter got engaged to the Xu family a few days ago! This niece's mother was not feeling well during the Chinese New Year, so she came here to burn incense when she saw me coming!"

Show off and explain.

Among those girls, there are actually brothers who know Mr. Xu, and some girls themselves have met Mr. Xu.

Who wouldn't be attracted to a man like that?

"…This is the one who is getting engaged!" Someone whispered to the person next to him.

Old Lady Liang's eyes curved. "Oh, you're engaged to the Xu family! The Xu family is a big family, and they are very disciplined. Miss Mo has a lot to prepare for! Just stay busy at home. In front of the Buddha, it's enough to show your affection!"

Generally speaking, girls who are engaged but not married will not show their faces in public. They will learn the rules at home and take care of their dowry.

If the Xu family knew that Mo Wen attended such occasions, they would be able to find fault with him.

Wang was annoyed, but she was eloquent and could keep up with the conversation. "Dajue Temple is far away, and it's not easy to come here in winter! Today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and burning incense to the Buddha is what we good men and women should do! Come as often as you can! There's no need to be so particular!"

Before this, Wang would not have dared to speak to Old Madam Liang like this.

When they first met, she was also very attentive. However, now that Liang You was no longer under the care of Old Lady Liang, Wang no longer spoiled her.

Mo Yi knew the ill intentions of Mrs. Liang, and also knew that her family had done something wrong. She was inevitably nervous, and couldn't help but glance at Liang You next to her. She found that Liang You was still smiling, as if he couldn't hear anything.

Mo Wen on the side was even more annoyed. She thought to herself: What the hell does my presence have to do with you? A concubine shamelessly interferes with the marriage of the grandson of the original wife. Why did you come here? And you blame me?

Although she was angry, her face remained calm. She looked at the Marquis's wife and her mother openly, and ignored Old Lady Liang.

Who is Madam Hou?

One or two moves and it's clear that this Mrs. Mo is straightforward, not picky, and never loses out when it comes to words!

That Miss Mo is quite strong and able to keep her composure.

The delicate niece blinked her eyes and was very well behaved...

And Mo Yi... was quiet and steady, which was not consistent with her age. Liang You just stood there, and the little girl's eyes were not wandering. She didn't deliberately get close to him, nor did she show herself to him.

Regarding having to start all over again after getting halfway through the engagement... he showed no embarrassment or annoyance.

I don’t know if she is so naive that she doesn’t understand anything, or if she is very cunning.

He glanced at Liang You. Although he wasn't standing next to Mo Yi, he was not far away. He kept smiling and looked at the girl from time to time... He didn't do that when he introduced other girls to him!

Moreover, he even ran out to welcome them in personally...his love and respect for them were quite obvious.

well!

But...that won’t work either!

However, since I have chosen Liang You, I can't be too casual with him.

To put it in a broader sense: we must work together with him to support and glorify the Marquis's Mansion.

To put it simply: my own retirement and my daughter's stability in her husband's family all depend on him!

The relationship can't be bad!

If you want to get along well, you have to understand the principles. There are family ties involved, and you can't just rely on inducement and pressure... So, she calmly thought about what to do next.

As for that old lady Liang, her family background was OK, but her temper was really bad. When she was in the boudoir, she was also very naughty. Otherwise, how could she delay her marriage and end up being forced to become a concubine? After so many years, her temper has not changed.

However, she was not capable of giving birth to a son, so there was a limit to what she could do.

This time he had an agenda, so he came out to snatch it without any hesitation, and said with a cold face that everyone could see: "Yes, the Xu family is a good family, and Mr. Xu is very outstanding. We should thank the Bodhisattva... We should cherish our blessings!"

Wang smiled and said, "What the old lady said makes a lot of sense. That's what we thought!" But she secretly hated her in her heart: You damn old woman, I'll make you fall to death while walking!

Seeing that everyone was present, the Marquis's wife turned to Aunt Zhang and said, "Well, you introduce the adults to us, and we will stay here and talk. Girls, go play over there!"

Nanny Zhang agreed. After all, she was the Marquis' wife's confidant and was quite capable. She had already memorized all the ladies and girls present.

He began to introduce the women who came to Wang.

Mrs. Liang was indeed the most enthusiastic one. She stood up and walked to Wang's side. She also pulled the three girls from the Mo family and praised them in a low voice one by one. She was very sincere!

Lian Mo Wen sighed: If I could be her daughter-in-law, it would be a blessing from my previous life.
