Mo Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with it. "It's okay to cry once in a while. It's good to release your emotions."
This little girl has experienced a lot of stress today.
Mo Yan looked at the courtyard, which was cold, quiet and empty. There were only a few ornaments, and the jewelry was limited to just two or three pieces. Mo Yan was so angry that she trembled.
"Go to my storeroom and get some jewelry for the young lady, as well as some fabric. Have the sewing department make new clothes for her. Then go to Lin Ling's place and take back all the jewelry that Xiao Minghui bought for her that doesn't suit her!"
"And what about all the things I prepared for the young lady every year? Make her throw it all up and kneel down in the yard!"
The young lady has nothing here, yet she's just going through the motions of giving a little something. Does she not even care about saving face?
"yes."
Mo Yan's maid left with her entourage.
Xiao Yudie was stunned by her grandmother's decisive manner. She just stared at her grandmother blankly, unable to say a word.
"All year round, I prepare clothes and jewelry for you two girls and send them over on time. If you don't have them here, then someone has embezzled them."
It's normal for Lin Ling to have ambitions to become a wife, but not even bothering to put on a show of it is disgusting; she's utterly unseemly!
Xiao Yudie was even more surprised. She remembered that her grandmother lived in the village, so how could this be...?
"Grandmother, there's something I don't understand. Father said that you raised him all by yourself, so our family seems to be doing quite well?"
That's an understatement. The original owner didn't just live well; she lived a very good life.
They can do whatever they want every day; they live a secluded, idyllic life in the countryside.
There's a word called seclusion.
Not for the sake of making a living.
The scholars of yesteryear weren't necessarily just scholars; some could even be big shots.
The two of them in the village simply wanted to be a perfect couple.
As for Xiao Minghui's opinion, it's about raising sons frugally and daughters lavishly.
The original owner and her husband's idea was that they couldn't let Xiao Minghui become a spoiled brat; they wanted him to work hard on his own.
To make it look realistic, Mo Yan even went to sell pork every day with a butcher's knife.
"It's alright, we have some savings at home, so we can manage."
You don't need to feel inferior or think that our family doesn't have money.
Grandma will prepare a grand dowry for you in the future.
Later on, when Xiao Yudie got married, it was truly a grand wedding procession of ten miles of red bridal procession! Not a single detail was overlooked.
Xiao Yudie: "!!!" A ten-mile-long red bridal procession! How much dowry would that be? Grandmother must be joking, right?
"Grandma, didn't our family used to slaughter pigs?" Xiao Yudie was a little confused. What was going on?
"Yes, our family raises only tens of thousands of pigs and tens of thousands of sheep."
Xiao Yudie: "..."
"Alright, let's not discuss this anymore. I'll deal with Lin Ling later."
Otherwise, why would Lin Ling, that girl with high aspirations but low abilities, want to marry Xiao Minghui? Of course, she's after their family's money and wants a better life.
"Alright, let's not talk about that. Yudie, why do you think your life is so miserable?"
Mo Yan became serious, about to start teaching her daughter, "Back then, did your grandmother tell you that if you had any problems, you should remember to write to your grandmother?"
Xiao Yudie nodded. That's right, her grandmother would write back every year and say that she should write to her if anything happened.
"Then why not write a letter? Haven't you thought about how to solve your predicament?"
Mo Yan was still somewhat patient with the little girl and wouldn't resort to violence directly, simply because she was truly... miserable.
"Of course, don't rush. Just think carefully about what you were thinking and tell your grandmother your true thoughts."
"Yudie, your grandmother isn't blaming you now, she wants to help you, understand?"
Xiao Yudie then realized that her grandmother wanted to help her and teach her.
Other girls learn how to manage a household and acquire etiquette from a young age, but she knows nothing and has no one to teach her; she's like a wild child.
“Yes,” Xiao Yudie nodded obediently, and then began to express her thoughts, “At first, I thought about going to see my grandfather, but Aunt Lin wouldn’t let me go out.”
Yu Die had tried to find a solution, but without success.
"She won't let you go out, so you just stay home? Didn't you ever think about secretly writing letters?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yudie quickly offered an explanation.
“My granddaughter wrote it down, and then her maternal grandfather came once. He also visited my granddaughter and my mother. She felt a little better during that time. Later, her maternal grandfather told her to be patient.”
"I see."
No wonder Xiao Yudie endured it all the way through; her grandfather wouldn't stand up for her, and her mother seemed indifferent to everything in the courtyard.
"Grandpa came to tell his granddaughter that he had arranged a marriage for her."
Some time ago, the young prince came to the manor and met Yufei. The two got along very well, and the father said that he would arrange the marriage for Yufei.
In two days, the young prince's parents will come to discuss the marriage.
"Discuss marriage? Did I agree to it? Your grandfather arranged the marriage for you, what right does he have?"
Xiao Yudie: "???"
"Grandmother, what do you mean?" Xiao Yudie was a little confused about her grandmother's meaning.
"Grandmother will not approve of this marriage. Putting aside the character of that young prince, his father is a prince of a different surname, and there is no more title to be bestowed upon him, yet he is still high-profile. Even Grandmother has heard a little about what he has done in his fiefdom."
Grandmother will not approve of this marriage.
Mo Yan looked down on someone who wanted to rebel.
If the emperor is indifferent and the people suffer, Mo Yan can understand the rebellion. But now that there is peace and prosperity and the people live in peace and contentment, what kind of good person would want to rebel for the sake of ambition?
"Yes, granddaughter understands."
Seeing that she didn't seem upset, Mo Yan felt relieved. "Are you unhappy that your grandmother is interfering with your marriage?"
