Chapter 21 The Word "Dignity"
Mo Rushan returned home in the evening and was very happy to see his second brother back.
The two brothers drank and talked. Although Wang did not let Mo Ruhai reveal the news, he felt that since it had come to this, he should tell his eldest brother in advance.
"The Xu family?!" Mo Rushan was shocked. "I know the two Xu masters! I just haven't spoken to them." He was so excited that he stood up and walked back and forth on the ground. "I didn't expect this!"
He walked up to his brother and said, "Master Xu is very capable and is highly regarded by the Emperor. Master Xu's mentor is Master Huang. Given his age and the support of others, it won't be a problem for him to take another step forward in the near future."
"I have been here for so many years, but I just don't have anyone in the court and can't get into the circle. Who is worse than me in terms of ability? Is it decided?"
"It is said that Naji has passed away. The two of them are very compatible. Since the Xu family is interested, it should be almost done."
"That's good, that's good!" Mo Rushan rubbed his hands. "How come Wang didn't tell me about such a big thing? If I meet Lord Xu one day, I won't know what's going on! What if I'm impolite? This is really bad!"
"After all, our family is marrying up. If we tell others about it, and it doesn't work out, we'll be embarrassed."
"Indeed! I didn't expect that Mo Wen would marry a better wife than her elder sister! Ru Hai, I have to say that your wife is quite capable."
Mo Ruhai snorted softly and disagreed.
"Oh, Mo Yi's marriage is almost done. The family knew him before, and the boy has passed the imperial examination!"
Compared with Mo Wen's marriage, this one was very insignificant. As expected, Mo Rushan was not very excited.
He just nodded: "Yeah. Mo Yi is not as good as Mo Wen. It's good enough to find someone who comes from a well-off family and is only interested in making progress."
"Yi Yi has her strengths, but they are different from Wen Wen!" Mo Ruhai was unhappy.
Mo Rushan nodded in a perfunctory manner: "There are some rules to follow when dealing with the Xu family! Mo Wen's dowry list has been prepared, give me a copy too. If it doesn't look good, I'll add some more! Don't tell anyone about this...!" He planned to keep it a secret even from his wife.
Mo Ruhai was even more unhappy when he didn't mention Mo Yi at all. "Okay. Mo Yi's is ready, I'll show it to Big Brother too!"
Mo Rushan waved his hand and said, "As for Mo Yi's matter, you two can handle it!"
This made Mo Ruhai very angry...
When I returned to the room, Wang was already asleep and pretending to be asleep.
Mo Ruhai pretended not to know. After washing up, he went to bed, and the couple fell asleep back to back.
In the morning, the two did not reconcile, but they did not continue arguing either.
"The things for my mother's family have been prepared. Please accompany me to deliver them!" Wang said.
"Why not let the servants send it first? New Year's Day is coming soon. When Mo Da comes back, we men will go together, so that the two old people won't be tired from entertaining them frequently." Mo Ruhai refused.
Wang held back and said, "Then you have to go to my sister's house in person, right?"
"You are so stupid! I haven't even been to my father-in-law's house. Why should I go to my sister's house? I won't let my father-in-law pick a fight? Besides, your brother-in-law is a powerful man. He must be very busy before the New Year! How can he have time to greet me? If I send him there, he will have to take time to chat with me. Isn't that just causing trouble?"
This may not sound pleasant, but...
Wang said helplessly: "Eldest sister just helped us accomplish two great things! If it weren't for her, would you have been able to find such good marriages for your two daughters?"
"That's why I carefully selected the good things and brought them back from thousands of miles away to give them to them!" Although Mo Ruhai's attitude was very sincere, it made Wang feel indescribable awkwardness.
When she said something else, her husband had already walked away leisurely with his hands behind his back.
Mo Yi didn't sleep well all night, thinking about the Liang family's affairs. When he got up in the morning, he looked at the box dragged into the small inner room, shook his head, and thought to himself, "Don't think about it anymore, there's a lot of work to do!"
As a result, Mo Ruhai came again.
"Dad?" Mo Yi looked at his father and saw that his face was not very good.
Mo Ruhai said worriedly: "Yiyi, your marriage with your sister is different. When the time comes, I'm afraid the dowry will be quite different. Dad will feel bad..."
"Dad! Why are you thinking so far ahead? You see, the Liang family always knows what their daughter is like. Since they agree, they won't be picky. Just give the daughter a dowry according to the rules, that's all!"
The father lowered his head and said nothing.
"You still don't believe in your daughter? She can earn money and live a good life."
"Yes! Yi Yi, all the money we earn will be given to you as your private property when you get married." Mo Ruhai reacted.
While feeling moved, Mo Yi was thinking to himself: People say my mother is partial, but my father is just as partial!
It seems that it is impossible to achieve complete fairness and justice in this world.
Generally speaking, the word "decent" is the most important.
"Dad, the most important thing now is that you have to find time to take your daughter out. The New Year is coming, and there are still many things to do outside!"
"Oh, okay, okay. Dad will take you out in the next two days. Also, Song's wife and children have returned to the small courtyard. Although it's a bit crowded, it's okay with Song Qiang and his wife taking care of them."
"It will be even better if we buy them New Year's goods and give them red envelopes later!" Mo Yi said with a smile.
Mo Ruhai was in a good mood thinking that he could finally get some benefits for his subordinates.
…
In the evening, Mo Fan brought Mo Da and his wife back.
Upon hearing the news, even Mrs. Wang ran out to greet her, and was much more enthusiastic than she was towards her husband.
Medha is a man with a handsome face, a good figure, good clothes and elegant manners.
Wang saw it all and was happy in her heart. She smiled with her teeth showing! His wife Zhou, who got off the car later, looked very bad and was barely supported by the maids.
"Mother!" Medha saluted.
"Hey! Are you back?" Wang looked at Moda with both eyes. She couldn't get enough of looking at him!
Mrs. Wang came forward, and the little maid beside Zhou whispered something to her. Mrs. Wang quickly turned around and whispered to Wang.
Wang was overjoyed when she heard this, and she didn't care about her son anymore, and hurried to support her eldest daughter-in-law. She asked in a low voice, and Zhou replied with a red face.
Wang cried out in pain and quickly helped her in.
Mo Qing was sharp-eyed and saw it, and said mysteriously to several sisters: "The eldest sister-in-law is probably pregnant!"
Mo Yi also thought so. Looking at his elder brother, he shook his head in his heart. He only cared about himself and didn't care about his wife! He is not a good man!
They were crowded into the house. The two Mo brothers were sitting in the main seats. Mo Da greeted his uncle and father in a serious manner.
The news that Mo Da's wife was pregnant also spread. The eldest aunt was a little jealous, looking at Mo Fan with a big grin, this silly boy, who didn't know when he would get married.
Liu didn't have a son herself, so she couldn't bear to see other people having children and enjoying the happiness of generations. Her eyes were gloomy, and she was mumbling something silently.
The men said a few simple words, and the sisters greeted their eldest brother politely. Moda was sometimes even more picky than her elders!
Even Mo Yuan threw away her usual graceful demeanor and greeted Mo Da with a humble look. Because when Mo Da didn't like someone, he would scold him!
Sure enough, he was examining his sisters with a serious face, starting with Mo Wen, and looking at Mo Yuan in particular.
In the end, perhaps because he couldn't find any fault, he had a slight smile on his face.
"I've brought some calligraphy that my eldest brother has written for you sisters. I'll send it to each room later. Practice it well."
He hasn't been back for such a long time, and he only gave his sisters calligraphy works... He is so nice!
The girls didn't agree with it, but they still said with satisfaction: "Thank you, big brother!"
Mo Qing was not happy about it. She didn't care about that at all and just rolled her eyes...
He immediately saw who Medha was and his expression immediately became serious.
"Qing'er, what's wrong with your eyes?"
