Chapter 174 There Must Be a Response
After the Xu family apologized, Liu Yue returned home and went to his parents' room first.
Today was a really busy day.
After the guests left, his two sons, Liu Jian and Liu Nian, were chatting and laughing with the two old people in the room, having a great time.
His wife and daughter were not there.
Seeing her son coming back, Mrs. Liu asked with concern: "How is it?"
"Mr. Xu was very polite and chatted with his son for a while. It's okay!"
Madam Liu was still upset and looked at Liu Yue in reproach, "Just tell me what happened today!"
Liu Yue didn't want to talk anymore, "Today there are too many people here, I may not be able to take care of them for a while."
"Hmph...your daughter-in-law changed three sets of clothes for one banquet! Is it necessary to do this..." The old lady was helpless.
"Jingmei has always liked this. It's not a big deal. Don't pick on her..."
"You have to take care of your own business! At least you didn't get into any big trouble. If that stupid girl from the Sun family really hit Grandma Xu San, how would you have ended it? Would you have just apologized? Your father's birthday party would have been ruined!"
Elder Liu heard it over there and looked at his wife and son with dissatisfaction.
He was too embarrassed to say in front of his grandson: Isn't it you who spoiled this rebellious son and made him a useless person?
"Grandfather, what does this sentence mean..." Liu Jian quickly pointed at the book and asked questions to divert his grandfather's attention.
Liu Nian was a mischievous person, smiling with his eyes curved. He wished that the old man and the old lady would scold the father and the other...
"Jingmei knows she was wrong..." Liu Yue spoke for his wife.
"She knows she's wrong?" The old lady was furious. This was a lie with open eyes. "I don't think so! Didn't you see how she looked at that time? The guest almost got into trouble at home, but she didn't care! She also said something indirect, saying that Grandma Xu shouldn't have gone there. Even Madam Xu was unhappy when she heard it!"
Liu Yue's peach blossom eyes sparkled, and he was helpless, "Mom, it's nothing serious after all, please stop talking."
When Old Madam Liu heard this, she felt even more aggrieved, as if she was looking for trouble to make things difficult for her daughter-in-law!
"Just keep pampering her like this! Sooner or later..."
Before, her husband was away from home all year round, so she was left alone with her son, spoiling him too much. This really made him stubborn, playful, and pleasure-seeking, and he had no ambition to make progress.
Because of this...my husband complained a lot.
But at least it didn't cause too much trouble, so it's considered safe.
But why did he marry such a person?
"There is one more thing..." The old lady thought of another thing: "Hu Jingmei and Madam Zheng are in love. It seems that she has set her eyes on the young Master Zheng. How old do you think Si Wan is? Is it necessary to be so anxious? The young Master Zheng is still in school, and we don't know what his future will be like!
I don't know how Madam Zheng made her happy. I've talked about it twice. Today I saw them talking to each other again. In theory, she is a mother, so it's not bad to meet her earlier. However, I feel uneasy about your wife's behavior. "
Liu Yue is not a good person. After listening for a while, he had enough...
"Mom..." He frowned.
Liu Nian came over and said, "Grandma, why are you only talking to Daddy and ignoring your grandson?"
The old lady hugged him and asked, "Why are you ignoring me?!"
…
When they got home, Mo Yuan told Mo Yi what she had said to Zhang Debao: "The Sun family has fallen on hard times, with no wealth or power. They still have some connections thanks to their ancestor's Mengyin. Sun Ying'er flatters people everywhere, works as a follower for others, and does things in a very undignified way. She is often used as a gun by others, and has done all kinds of things. Sometimes, she can really bring some benefits to the family.
There are several noble ladies present today, even the princess is here, but I couldn't find out who she came with.
Master Zhang also said: Her family is weak, and she would not take the initiative to make enemies if there is no benefit. Today, someone must have instigated her. "
Mo Yi wondered, who could it be?
The next day, she went to find Nanny Zhao and told her about this.
Madam Zhao thought for a moment, "In the beginning, many people were interested in Xu Ke. I know several of them, and they were both good in terms of family background and talent. Later, Xu Ke got engaged to your sister. To be honest, I was very surprised. If I felt this way, then the people and girls who were interested in him would be even more so.
Sun Ying'er has always played this kind of role in her small circle. If someone promises her a benefit, she will come forward... So, the matter of Mo Wen may also be like this."
Mo Yi nodded. "At that time, I didn't know Sun Ying'er's identity. I only saw that she was well-dressed and strong. I protected my sister because I wanted to wait for Madam Xu to find out and come to the rescue. Another reason was that I was representing the Prince Qi's Mansion, so I had to be tough. I was thinking, what if the other party is really a powerful character... Afterwards, the prince will have to mediate. So I should talk to the prince about this matter."
She wanted Nanny Zhao to say hello to the prince.
"The prince is in the capital right now. You can send someone to tell him when he is free so you can meet him and talk in person!"
Mo Yi hesitated a little, "I..."
"Miss, I'm not saying anything bad about you. You are the future princess. Our family is different from other families. Whether it's the industry or the housework, there are dedicated people to take care of it. This doesn't mean that you only care about having fun. It's that you don't need to do everything yourself. As long as you have some calculations in your mind and can recognize people and assign tasks, it will be fine.
For example, in Qizhenlou, there is a shopkeeper, an accountant, a master chef and a clerk. You just need to know where there may be omissions, conduct spot checks on weekdays and check the accounts at the end of the year, that is enough. "
Mo Yi lowered his eyes and nodded slightly without saying anything.
Madam Zhao continued, "Our prince has been raising his own family since he was in his teens. For so many years, he has never had a moment of rest. He has been out in the open, fighting, working, and getting injured. He also has to be on guard against accidents caused by people and things... He is really very, very hard-working.
The prince has a strong and reserved personality. He is used to handling things on his own and won't speak out easily. I can't say that the prince is easy to deal with against my will. But the more this is the case, the more we should feel sorry for him, right?
Before, it was too early to get married, so I didn't rush to tell you. I just thought that the Mohist School would give you a limited vision. Learning more and doing more will be good for your and the prince's future. Everything else can be done slowly. But now... I'm afraid the wedding date is approaching."
Mo Yi's heart skipped a beat.
She wanted to ask something but didn't have the chance to ask it, but Nanny Zhao said it.
For a moment, I really didn't know how to respond.
Is she getting married?
"Mammy... who will decide the marriage? When will it be?" She was a little anxious. She couldn't tell whether she was willing or not, because she felt that it was something she would think about in the future.
"The process has been completed. All preparations are proceeding step by step. You can even try on your wedding dress..."
"Ah... I thought it was still early." Her mind was in a mess.
Nanny Zhao didn't say anything.
Although, this time, Mo Yi was asked to represent the prince to go to the Liu family because Ah Nian had mentioned several times that he wanted to see her.
But since the prince has recognized her, once this happens, there will be more such things happening in the future.
Having a formal identity also makes it legitimate.
"But, Madam, I'm afraid my family won't want to let me go..."
"Is it your father who is reluctant to let you go? You won't marry someone else, so you can meet him anytime you want." Nanny Zhao was very strong.
"This news is so shocking. Mammy, my shop hasn't even opened yet!"
"That shop is for you to learn. Once you learn it, you will learn everything. Don't lose sight of the main point. Even I can see that the prince has you in his eyes. You should also respond!" Aunt Zhao's dissatisfaction was revealed...
"You are right to remind me. I indeed overlooked it." Mo Yi felt a little guilty.
"I'm glad you understand."
"There is one more thing. I met Princess Yu'an at the Liu family. She said she wanted to invite me to visit the princess's mansion..."
"When you receive the post, just reply and I will go with you then." Nanny Zhao frowned. What did Yu'an want to do again?
After this, Mo Yi was stunned for a long time.
After the engagement, the prince gave me money and gifts, and there was also the matter of Qizhenlou... the cultivation of Zhao Mama and Manager Zhao, the maids, the second brother, and going out to socialize. Now, from head to toe, everything is given by the prince.
I was caught up in it, busy and fulfilled every day, and there was always something to do.
If she was a little panicked before, now she didn't have the energy to think: whether she should be at peace with all this, whether she should respond to him...
Intuitively, he has everything, is omnipotent, and does not need me.
But why didn’t she think about this: Liang You, she even made a purse!
After thinking this through, she broke out in a cold sweat.
Mo Yi, you really are...
I, who am still typing today, and Choubao, who is still reading the article, are both in true love!
On New Year’s Eve, I hope everyone is well and in good health!
In between typing, I am still eating braised beef... How about the big beef tendon in Ximeng...
The second chapter has not been coded yet, I'll go check the pot first.
