As the lights go on, the heat gradually subsides and a cool breeze blows in the air.
When Jiang Yuzhu returned home, she found that her mother-in-law Shen had brought Shen Zhilan back. She was very happy: "Mother, cousin, you came at the right time."
When they heard that Jiang Huaiqing was sending a big fish caught in the Wei family's villa, they decided to hold a banquet in the garden.
Grilled fish and meat, paired with some wine as a midnight snack.
Upon hearing this, Shen said politely, "It just so happens that mother still has a small jar of plum wine she brought back from Jiangnan."
After Shen came to the capital from Jiangnan, he spent most of his time in the countryside.
Her original intention was that she would stay at home, and Jiang Yuzhu would have to get up early to pay her respects, wanting her daughter-in-law to feel more comfortable.
By the way, it also creates more opportunities for the couple to spend time together under the moonlight.
When she heard that Mo Qianyu was coming to the mansion today, Shen hurriedly brought Shen Zhilan back and whispered, "General Mo is young and promising, and Zhilan has never been married in the capital. The two are of similar age and appearance, so they are a good match."
In the countryside, Shen Zhilan appears and disappears mysteriously.
Shen couldn't control her son or her niece, which gave her a huge headache.
When Shen Zhilan heard this, she interrupted, “Aunt, I won’t marry!”
"The Mo family is nothing. If it weren't for Yuan He's face, you wouldn't even be able to get close to them. Such a good marriage is right in front of you, and you don't know how to grab it..."
The Mo family has made great military achievements, and Mo Qianyu is definitely a hot commodity.
Shen's face darkened as she said, "Rumor has it that Prime Minister Wei is interested in General Mo and has already sent an invitation to a gathering at his house."
The Mo family has been a loyal and devoted family, guarding the northern border town for generations.
The rules for military families are relatively relaxed, and they don't care much about their reputation. It's no wonder that Wei Jing, who has a bad reputation, would target Mo Qianyu.
Shen Zhilan was forced to hold her head down and was struggling to resist: "Then let Wei Jing marry!"
Mo Qianyu was in the front yard, and Shen Zhilan didn't want to see him at all.
In their previous life, the two had a grudge against each other.
At that time, she and her husband came to the capital to build relationships, and their carriage broke down on the road.
It was already late at night, and she and Xia'er were the only ones in the wilderness. Shen Zhilan felt helpless.
At that time, a fast horse happened to pass by, and Shen Zhilan thought she had grabbed a life-saving straw.
Unexpectedly, no matter how much she begged, the other party didn't even look at her.
Not only that, Mo Qianyu sneered and said that it was a routine designed by her just to get close to him.
Shen Zhilan almost exploded with anger, and even dreamed of the scene after her rebirth.
Originally, Shen Zhilan didn't know who the person with whom she had a grudge was. The two had only met once. But today, in front of Xie's house, Shen Zhilan was sitting in a carriage and saw him from afar and recognized him at a glance.
Knowing that Shen was planning to arrange a match, Shen Zhilan said sarcastically, "Aunt, the Mo family is a noble family, I can't afford to marry them."
Shen replied in agreement: "You know it's too high a target, but why don't you take the initiative?"
We are close to the Mo family and have such good conditions, so we can't let Wei Jing get away with it.
Otherwise, if Wei Jing really marries Mo Qianyu, it will affect the relationship between the Mo family and the Xie family.
Wei Jing is a black-hearted troublemaker. Whoever she marries will be unlucky.
Shen had good intentions and wanted to find a good marriage for her niece, but it was a pity that Shen Zhilan didn't understand.
Shen Zhilan spat silently in her heart: "Aunt, you can't randomly match couples."
Escaping would not solve the problem. If she resisted repeatedly, her aunt Shen would definitely drag her to the Taoist temple and say that she was possessed by evil spirits.
Chen Zhilan had a secret, and she said tactfully, "Although there's no war in the north right now, there's no guarantee we'll have to go to the battlefield again someday. It's true that General Mo is fighting bravely on the front lines, but it's also dangerous. What if something goes awry one day? Wouldn't my niece become a widow?"
Mo Qianyu had just arrived in the garden and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard these words. Who was cursing him?
He originally planned to return to the General's Mansion after dinner, but unexpectedly his sister Mo Yan came to find him.
Mo Qianyu brought her sister to meet the elders, pay her respects to the Shen family, and thank Jiang Yuzhu for her hospitality.
“Ahem!”
Mo Qianyu coughed lightly twice. He seemed to be unfamiliar with the woman in front of him and had no grudge against her.
Just as he was about to speak, his younger sister Mo Yan rushed forward, pointed at Shen Zhilan and said, “Who are you and why are you cursing my eldest brother?”
After saying that, Mo Yan turned to Xie Zhao and said, "Brother Xie, do you want to give an explanation?"
Shen Zhilan was not an unreasonable person, and she was the one who spoke rudely first. She was about to apologize when she saw Mo Yan tugging at Xie Zhao's sleeve. She immediately became angry: "Your elder brother, Brother Xie, all men in the world are your brother. Do you have any sense of shame? Do you know what the strict rules of gender separation are? Let go!"
No matter who it is, as long as they try to interfere with the relationship between their cousin and his wife, they will be Shen Zhilan's enemy!
Xie Zhao and Jiang Yuzhu stood together, and Shen Zhilan was pleasing to the eye. She, the cousin who came to visit, had come to her senses and was carefully protecting them.
All foreign women are treated as vixens!
Facing Shen Zhilan who was like a firecracker, Shen was slightly stunned, unable to understand why her niece who was always well-mannered would be like this.
"You shrew!"
Mo Yan's eyes turned red, and she finally let go of Xie Zhao's sleeve.
Mo Qianyu stepped forward and bowed solemnly, saying, "Miss Shen, I have lived in the north for many years and don't know the rules of the capital. I am sorry to have embarrassed you. As a brother, I have failed to discipline my younger sister. I apologize to you."
Mo Qianyu's words made Shen Zhilan's face flush red, and she was even more angry.
This little man is exactly the same as in her previous life, she could recognize him even if he turned into ashes.
On the surface it was an apology, but in reality every word was a mockery of her for being uncultured!
In the past, Shen Zhilan would have found a crack in the ground to crawl into. After her rebirth, she didn't improve in other aspects, but she did become much thicker-skinned.
Shen Zhilan returned the greeting and calmly flicked her handkerchief: "Since General Mo has realized his mistake, then you should take good care of your sister in the future. After all, this is the capital, so you should be more careful about your words and actions."
