Chapter 153 Future Customers
The ceremony is over.
Everyone stand up. From now on, unless you are summoned, you can wander around and wait for lunch.
Is that it?
I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed, after all, I didn't get to see the Empress Dowager or the grand occasion inside.
Mo Wen was obviously worried, so he went to a nearby lounge and tidied his appearance.
"Girl, your purse looks very unique. Did you buy it in a shop?" Someone spoke to Mo Yi.
Mo Yi turned around and saw...Miss Wang?
At this moment, Miss Wang was smiling, polite and gentle, without any of the arrogance that she had when she pointed her nose at him that day.
"Girl...are you talking to me?" Mo Yi asked subconsciously.
"Yes! My name is Wang Ruhan, the daughter of Mr. Wang. Excuse me, but who is she?"
Didn't she recognize me?
Yes, who could have thought that a commoner girl with plain clothes, ordinary looks, and who couldn't even afford a piece of amethyst, could go to the royal villa to attend the Queen Mother's birthday celebration?
"My last name is Mo, and these are my two sisters."
Mo Wen and Mo Yuan saluted to Wang Ruhan: "Miss Wang!"
Wang Ruhan smiled and returned the greeting. "The Mo family?" She thought about it and had never heard of it. "The three sisters are so beautiful. Miss Mo, I am sorry for talking to you without knowing you. I really like your purse, it is so beautiful..."
Oh, is she so sweet-mouthed?
"We sisters are so happy that Miss Wang came to talk to us!" Mo Yi also put on a sweet smile.
Mo Yuan's eyes darted around, what was Mo Yi doing? His smile was so cheesy!
Then I heard Mo Yi say: "Just now, I saw the girl's necklace and bracelets, and I said to my sister: The blue turquoise that the girl is wearing is really beautiful, just like the sky after the rain. It suits the girl's temperament very well..."
Mo Yuan looked at Mo Yi: You didn’t say.
Mo Wen remained calm.
"Besides, I saw the girl in green next to you. Her turquoise is also good. But... " Mo Yi covered his mouth for fear that the next words would be rude, "Girl, you have a bright temperament and a pure personality. You are a perfect match for this blue turquoise!"
After saying this, she suddenly realized: Oh no, I've been staying with Manager Zhao for too long...
She herself thought so, not to mention...
Sure enough, "..." Mo Wen stared at Mo Yi. This girl was so good at talking.
"..." Mo Yuan looked at Mo Yi pulling her arm and almost asked: Who are you? Get out of my sister's body!
"Really?!" After hearing this, Wang Ruhan looked up to the sky and laughed.
He immediately treated Mo Yi as a close friend, and the conversation never stopped.
It turned out that the girl in green was really called Xu Fengjiao. And she was not a stranger, but a cousin who was one hour older than Wang Ruhan. She was the daughter of her mother's concubine's sister.
Wang Ruhan's hesitation suggests that her maternal family must have had a rather bloody past. The little white flower concubine sister had caused her mother a lot of trouble.
The Mo sisters looked at Wang Ruhan. With her personality, it was understandable that her mother would suffer...
But her mother married well!
Not only did my father respect my mother very much, but his career was also smooth.
Her mother was also very ambitious, giving birth to a series of sons. The sons were good at school and had great prospects.
Finally, the only daughter, Wang Ruhan, became the baby of the whole family because of her rarity. They all spoiled her and gave her pocket money.
Especially my grandmother, she liked her simplicity and would not let anyone change her even for the slightest thing. She was much freer than ordinary women.
Wang Ruhan likes all beautiful things, but her greatest hobby is competing with Xu Fengjiao.
But, she is honest and often suffers losses...
If someone she knew well praised her like this, Wang Ruhan would still be skeptical.
But the girl from the Mo family is a stranger and we have no vested interests, so she is the most fair in her view of things.
If they say it’s good, it must be extremely good!
"Miss Mo really has good taste. No wonder the purses she wears are so colorful. Where did you buy them?"
"Well... this is a long story. I met a woman by chance... She has great craftsmanship, but because of her mysterious and miserable life, she doesn't want to show her face. In order to keep my promise, I can't tell you who she is. But I really like her work!"
"I like it too. Well, can't I buy some from her? It doesn't matter if it's a little expensive..." Wang Ruhan was disappointed and hopeful.
Mo Yi's little heart was beating happily.
"Don't worry, Miss Wang. I heard that she is going to open a small shop next to Qizhenlou. It has been decided, but we don't know when it will open. Let's keep an eye on it. If the shop opens, go as soon as possible so that we can have more choices!"
"Qizhenlou... I'm familiar with it! The things there are really good. Every year, my family goes there to buy some!"
Mo Yi was secretly delighted, he was indeed a big customer!
The flattery was not in vain.
"Then let's do this: we both exchange our home addresses. If one of us gets to know the news first, we'll inform the other immediately. Don't be too late, or you'll miss out!"
"That's a good idea! Well...if she had something like this for you before." She pointed at Mo Yi's purse, "Can you please let me take a look first?"
"We both have the same vision, of course!"
The two girls were talking about their home addresses while laughing...
Mo Wen and Mo Yuan looked at each other: Is this person the taciturn person of the Mo family? How come he has become a completely different person?
Moreover, when did she meet this mysterious and miserable "hermit master"?
"Miss Mo?" Nanny Xu came.
"Madam Xu." Mo Wen stared at Mo Yi's face and then turned gentle, calling softly.
Aunt Xu smiled in a typical way: "Our Madam said that if the young lady is free, she would like to invite her over to have a few words."
"Then I'll trouble Madam Xu to lead the way. Sister, shall we go?"
The three sisters said goodbye to Wang Ruhan and entered the inner courtyard.
It was obviously much quieter in here, with people sitting in groups of three or five talking.
After walking for a while, I saw Mrs. Xu and several other ladies drinking tea there.
Although they were engaged, it was the first time that Mrs. Xu met Mo Wen.
It can be seen how little she cares about this marriage.
Mrs. Xu was a little surprised to know that Mo Wenjin was coming today. However, the girl knew to send a decent maid first, which was considered polite.
Seeing the three girls coming, Madam Xu was worried that people around her would notice her indifference, so she took the initiative to smile at the one in the middle and said, "Miss Mo Wen, who are these two?"
After the three girls from the Mo family finished their greetings, Mo Wen smiled and said, "Madam, this is my fourth sister, Mo Yuan, and fifth sister, Mo Yi."
Madam Xu nodded to Mo Yi and Mo Yuan, and briefly introduced the people around her, "Please take a seat."
Several ladies looked at the three girls carefully and finally fell on Miss Mo Wu, who was engaged to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi.
It’s true, although the Mo family is not a big family, the three girls in front of me are quite neat.
"I didn't know Miss Mo was coming. Where did you stay?" Mrs. Xu asked with a smile.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi invited me to attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet and vacated the palace's courtyard for me to live in. I was a little scared to live alone in such a large courtyard, so I asked us to come along temporarily. We came in a hurry. Knowing that you were also invited, my sister and I came to pay our respects to you."
Mo Wen explained everything clearly in just a few words.
Everyone understands: His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi thinks highly of this young fiancée...
Madam Xu nodded slightly: "The Queen Mother may summon me at any time. So, I can't leave here. Now is the season when the lotus flowers are blooming. You can have fun. If you want to go boating, be careful not to get your shoes wet."
"yes."
"Xu Ke is here today, too."
When Mo Wen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"But he has official business to attend to, not here for fun. I don't even know where he is, and you may never meet again."
"Mo Wen understands."
After a few more idle words, Mo Wen said, "I think Madam still has a lot of things to do, so we won't bother you any more."
"Good. Today's dance troupe was arranged by the Imperial Concubine herself. It's quite good. It's not easy to see it normally. Have fun."
"yes."
The three girls bowed and left.
"Is this Ke'er's unmarried daughter-in-law?"
Mrs. Xu looked at the backs of the three girls and nodded.
There is an indescribable awkwardness in my heart...
A few days ago, it was the birthday of the future daughter-in-law. Aunt Xu reminded her, and she asked her son what his plans were.
As a result, he said he had no time and no plans.
He was not satisfied with the marriage and kept asking for it. Finally, he had someone send a hairpin, saying it was a birthday present for Mo Wen.
Oh. The girl just now was wearing...
In the beginning, it was he who insisted on marrying Mo Wen, but now he treats her like this.
Mo Wen's biological sister was married to the Prince of Qi by the Emperor. He and His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi became brothers-in-law, but he didn't take it to heart!
What the hell is going on with this brat...
Why isn’t he like the eldest and second sons, who are less of a worry?
Potential big customers appear.
