Xu Wei: "???"
For some reason, his heart was pounding, and he had a feeling that something was about to happen; he was starting to panic.
Why does he feel like this princess is treating this place like her own home?
"Princess, you wouldn't happen to be Xiao Minghui's mother, would you?"
Wasn't it just an ordinary rural woman who raised Xiao Minghui with a butcher's knife?
Mo Yan looked at him coldly and spoke.
"What? It won't work?"
Xu Wei: "..."
Xu Wei really didn't dare to show his temper in front of Mo Yan.
"Princess, I had no idea. If I had known, I would have come to visit you long ago."
Xu Wei chuckled awkwardly, probably having forgotten what he had come there for.
"Xu Wei, if you considered me as your in-law, you would have known this long ago."
You arranged for your two children to get married without my involvement, and then you never came back again.
"I heard you told everyone that whoever marries Yudie will have your support. What, my granddaughter has become your bargaining chip?"
Mo Yan looked down on this man. He wanted to find an easy son-in-law, but he was unwilling to treat him as a relative by marriage.
Xu Wei felt cold sweat on his forehead. He didn't know why; if he had known, he would have come over.
"It's all my fault, Princess, please forgive me."
Mo Yan laughed immediately, "Don't be like that, you are a majestic general, while I am just an ordinary person."
"Tell me, what you just said about my granddaughter's marriage is all about?"
At this moment, Xu Youran was also brought over. The moment Xu Youran saw Xu Wei, tears welled up in her eyes. She rushed over and cried out in grievance, "Father, Father... Waaah, Father, you have to stand up for me!" This mother-in-law is bullying me!
"Xu Wei, look at this, is your daughter resenting me? She asked you to make the decision, does she think I, her mother-in-law, have wronged her?"
Mo Yan's gaze grew even colder, and Xu Wei's expression immediately changed. He glared at Xu Youran with a dark face, "Shut up! Don't you have any manners? Your mother-in-law is right here, what are you crying about!"
Xu Youran was startled and a little scared...
"Father?" Xu Youran was a little confused. What was wrong with her father? Why was he siding with this mother-in-law?
"What do you mean 'father'? You have no sense of order at all. I think you're asking for a beating. Hurry up and apologize to your mother-in-law!"
Xu Youran could only look at Mo Yan with a wronged expression, "Mother, I'm sorry, it was your daughter-in-law's fault."
Mo Yan smiled, a faint smile, "Don't say that. It was my fault. I'm the one who wronged you. I locked you up. I made you a vegetarian. I made you copy Buddhist scriptures. Xu Wei, isn't that right?"
Xu Wei: "..."
"Your Highness is too kind. It is only right that you ask me to do whatever you want. It is I who should apologize. My daughter has not fulfilled the responsibilities of a proper wife. I am sorry to Your Highness."
Xu Youran was stunned again. What were all these things?
What princess?
"Father, what princess?"
"Shut up and kneel down right now!"
Xu Youran knelt down, still not understanding what had happened.
“Xu Wei, you don’t need to do this. Your daughter doesn’t want to be a wife or manage the household. Take her back with you.”
Mo Yan said this with a smile, implying that if you don't want to listen, then get lost.
If you don't want to face all this, then go back to your parents' home. You don't need to stay here pitifully.
“Your daughter keeps talking about her suffering, saying she doesn’t want to face any of this.”
She lives a refined life in her little courtyard, completely ignoring her daughter. You should take her back.
Xu Wei was stunned. He didn't expect this princess to be so ruthless, directly ordering him to take his daughter back.
"Princess, isn't this inappropriate? My daughter and your son are husband and wife."
To be honest, after the initial panic, all that's left is excitement.
What does this mean? He and Princess Mo Yan will be in-laws from now on. This is something so many people dream of.
In the past, he wouldn't have dared to even think about it, but now that it's come true, he's overjoyed.
"What's wrong with it? Didn't you see your daughter's attitude right here?"
Mo Yan looked at Xu Youran as if she were an insignificant person. "The way she came in just now, wasn't she just trying to put on a life-or-death drama with you? Do you not understand, or do you think I don't understand?"
If I truly didn't understand anything, shouldn't I apologize to you two parents and beg you to let my family go?
Xu Wei was speechless. That's right, he came here today to question Xiao Minghui and to finalize the marriage. In the end, he didn't take Xiao Minghui seriously, and he certainly wouldn't give his mother any face. Who knew that Xiao Minghui's mother was actually Princess Mo Yan.
This put him in a bit of a dilemma. To put it simply, he did want to advance further. With the example of Prince An before him, he was also thinking that it would be best if he could gain official rank and become a prince after his service in supporting the emperor.
The purpose of this visit is to finalize this matter and establish a connection with that prince. As for what to do next, it depends on the attitudes of those other individuals.
To put it simply, the relationship between the Emperor and the Crown Prince is extremely strained right now, which is obvious to everyone. The other princes are also watching with predatory eyes, so everyone needs to carefully consider whose side to stand with at this point.
At this point, the granddaughter's marriage becomes a good bargaining chip. However, it cannot be a biological granddaughter, because if something happens to a biological granddaughter, it will implicate the whole family. A granddaughter from another family is the best option.
Who would have thought...
But this is good too; it would be even more appropriate to be associated with Princess Moyan.
"Xu Youran, apologize right now."
Xu Youran didn't understand why her father was so afraid of her mother-in-law. Wasn't her mother-in-law just an ordinary old woman?
"Father?" Xu Youran knelt on the ground, looking at her father with great pain and disbelief, not understanding why her father would do this.
"Apologize right now, or you're not my daughter anymore. If you don't apologize, you'll be kicked out by your in-laws again. Think about what will happen to you!"
Xu Youran was terrified. She knew her father meant what he said, and if she really lost her family, she... she didn't even dare to think about what would happen to her.
"Mom, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I had a bad attitude. It was all my fault in the past. I didn't take good care of the family or the two children."
Mo Yan laughed immediately. "Xu Wei, isn't this funny? Your daughter has never admitted her mistakes before, which shows she knows what to say and when to say it. Either you take your daughter back, or Xiao Minghui's wife will die from a serious illness. You choose one."
Xu Wei then understood that the princess did not want to have anything to do with him.
“Princess, my daughter has always been in poor health, and there was nothing I could do when she died of a serious illness.”
He cannot lose this relationship, absolutely not, not even if his daughter dies.
