"Is Grandma talking about Miss Lan? Tong'er has no biological aunt. The only closest aunt is Mrs. Marquis of Xiangyang who let Tong'er pass that day. In a few days, my cousin will come to visit Grandma. Thank you Grandma for being so kind all these years. Take care of Tong'er, father, and grandmother. Can we invite Miss Lan to participate when the time comes?" Mo Xuetong glanced at Lan Xinru pretending to be confused, and when she showed a happy expression, she turned to the old lady's sweet eyebrows. He smiled innocently.
She was born young, with a bit of childishness, and her pure, watery eyes were bright and pretty. Because when she came to see the old lady, she knew that she didn't like her dressing too plainly, so she wore a light white butterfly skirt with flowers. She seems to be a bit cute and naive in her beauty, but she is actually like a little granddaughter who acts like a spoiled child to her grandmother.
Moreover, these words were so high-sounding that even if the old lady was angry, she could not express them for a moment, especially when she specifically said at the end that the Marquis of Xiangyang would come over to visit the old lady in two days. How could the old lady dare to say that she must let Mo Xuetong Called Aunt Lan Xinru.
If we really want to talk about it, the old lady is Mo Huawen's concubine. The old lady has a son herself, and she lives in her son's place. Although she has a relationship with her legitimate son, it is not as close as the old lady's natal family. This is why she couldn't completely solve it back then. The reason that influenced Mo Huawen's marriage is that her natal family is not a serious relative of the Mo family at all. When did she hear that an aunt's natal niece was rushing to let her legitimate son call her aunt? Da Qin does not have this explicit rule .
So although the old lady was angrily holding the teacup and staring coldly at Mo Xuetong, secretly hating her for being ignorant, she could not say anything wrong with her on the surface. She could only glare at Mo Xuetong with her sharp old eyes angrily.
Mo Xuetong sounded polite, but it was really a slap in the face, which made Lan Xinru suddenly feel embarrassed. She couldn't move forward or retreat while standing there. She didn't know when this stupid little girl became so tough.
If Xiao Lian hadn't come over and helped her sit down, she would have been in a dilemma. She helped Xiao Lian sit down timidly, with a haze flashing in her eyes, and she didn't recognize her. What a shameless girl, let’s see how she doesn’t kill this little girl when she becomes the royal wife of the Mo Mansion.
"How are you, old lady? How have you been eating these days? If you want to eat anything, tell Aunt Qing. That's all she's in charge of. You don't have to be polite to her." Mo Huawen's question came from the door. The mother-in-law responded with a smile.
"Sir, the old lady is very good. She was in a good mood this morning and drank half a bowl of porridge under Miss Lan's service. She is now talking to Miss Lan, the second miss, and the third miss in the room!"
"Oh, serve the old lady with all your heart." The voice got closer and closer, and the footsteps came in steadily and powerfully.
It's my father who's coming! Just as she was about to walk to the door to greet her, her hand was grabbed by the old lady. The expression on the old lady's face was so kind that people couldn't believe it was true. Her smile was as bright as an old chrysanthemum: "Tong girl, please sit here first, grandma." I haven't seen you since I've been feeling ill, so I just happened to be having fun with my grandma."
"No, Third Sister. Early in the morning, Grandma was thinking about you and asked me to call you. I said the weather was bad and you were not in good health. You might be hurt by the coming and going. Grandma didn't ask me to come over to find you. Now that you're here, you're not allowed to leave. Let's have lunch together at Grandma's place, and we sisters can also chat." Mo Xueyan leaned over affectionately, half-side on the couch. Go up and look at the smile on Mo Xuetong's face, but this smile has evil intentions.
I really don’t know if I offended Mo Xueyan in my previous life, so why am I so hard on myself? Mo Xuetong understands what Mo Xueyan means. This means that she is unfilial and did not come to pay her respects to the old lady. She is doing it to herself. Potion, I deliberately said this to my father, although this was also requested by the old lady herself.
"Second sister comes here every day to pay his respects to grandma?" Mo Xuetong smiled slightly and asked softly, then whispered to himself, "Did I hear wrongly? I obviously heard that my father asked someone to come. I was told that I don’t have to pay my respects to my grandmother these days. My grandmother is not in good health and can’t get up for a while. She asked us not to disturb her health. Is it possible that the second sister doesn’t know?”
After a word, Mo Xueyan's expression changed, and the smile on the old lady's face became a little unbearable. Lan Xinru was originally going to answer Mo Xueyan's words, but at this time, she quickly took it back and stopped saying anything.
"Did Tong'er make trouble with the old lady again? The old lady is not in good health and can't bear your troubles." Hearing his daughter's small murmurs, Mo Huawen laughed at the door and helped her out. The maid Xiaolian had already He stood guard at the door and lifted the curtain to let Mo Huawen in.
Because Mo Huawen is the legitimate son, although he is grateful to the old lady, he cannot be called his mother. She must be just the aunt of Mo Huawen's father. It is against the rules for Mo Xuemin's brothers and sisters to call the old lady grandmother. Some people say that It can also be said that they were young and ignorant and blocked it.

Mo Huawen has a slender figure and a handsome appearance. Although he is a middle-aged man in his thirties, he has a graceful demeanor and a chic manner. He is really attractive. If Lan Xinru hadn't thought of it regardless of dignity, She fell into his arms and deliberately seduced him. Now, looking at him, he is still as charming as ever. She had blushed and kept peeking at him, and her eyes and heart were all about him!
"Is the old lady in good health?" Mo Huawen didn't notice the charming salute to him from the maid holding the curtain. He walked in, glanced at the people in the room, and paused for a while on Mo Xuetong with a smile. Finally, it landed on the old lady sitting in the middle. She took two steps forward and saluted.
He had just gone to court and read a few case files in the study. He felt that the time was almost up, so he came over to say hello to the old lady.
The old lady was not feeling well a few days ago and asked them not to go and say hello. She said she couldn't get up early in the morning and was afraid that the illness would pass on to the children. For this reason, Mo Huawen also sent people to go to various hospitals to spread the word so that they would not forget it. Stay, disturbing the old lady's peace. Yesterday, the old lady's words came from the inner courtyard, saying that she was feeling better and wanted to see her children.
My daughter and sons are all gone, so there's no reason why Mo Huawen doesn't come by himself. This is the time when Mo Huawen would come to pay his respects in the past.
After Mo Huawen and the old lady had seen the gift and sat down on one side, Mo Xuetong and Mo Xueyan also went up to see the gift.
Lan Xinru waited for the two of them to meet Mo Huawen, then she held Xiaolian's hand and stepped forward, saying delicately: "Brother Huawen, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I still remember Xinru." After saying that, he bowed down, Bless your body and give gifts.
"Is it Miss Lan? We haven't seen you for a long time. Miss Lan has become more and more aware of everyone's temperament. I feel really ashamed to bother Miss Lan to take care of our old lady this time." Mo Huawen's tone was very indifferent, with a hint of disgust in his eyes. Although he didn't know anything about the affairs of the inner court, he had been in officialdom for a long time, and he had already sensed something different from Lan Xinru's shy expression.
Thinking of the past when Luo Xia was ill, Lan Xinru also appeared in front of him in a flowery dress. At that time, he had something on his mind and was worried about Luo Xia's health. How could he be in the mood to pay attention to her and deliberately avoid her presence? Luo Xia appeared in the time period, but as soon as he entered Luo Xia's yard with his front foot, she immediately followed him with his back foot, blocking Luo Xia's house without moving forward or backward.
She is pestering herself to ask this and that, and her beloved wife who is seriously ill is still lingering on the bedside. I wonder who is in the mood to "set up doubts and resolve doubts" with such a woman!
Because of this, Mo Huawen's impression of Lan Xinru is extremely poor.
"Brother Huawen still remembers Xinru, it's so great! I was thinking that brother Huawen might have forgotten Xinru after not seeing each other for so many years." Lan Xinru really stood up, raised her eyes and gave Mo Huawen a charming look, completely ignoring the room. There was also an old lady and two younger ones. Holding the handkerchief, she spoke half shyly and half tenderly, "Xinru is here to take care of my aunt this time. She and Brother Huawen are not outsiders, so it's hard to say whether she is ashamed or not. If Brother Huawen really feels guilty, why not teach Xinru how to paint? I heard that Brother Huawen's paintings are excellent."
Mo Xuetong's brows twitched when she heard this, and she couldn't help but tremble. What is this? You are so old and you still call her so affectionate? Such self-recommendation was said in such a high-sounding way in front of a room full of maids, maids, and the old lady above. It really embarrassed the old lady. How could any boudoir lady say such a thing
The old lady sitting on it raised her eyebrows, not knowing what she was thinking. She pretended not to hear, picked up the tea cup at hand and took a slow sip. Mo Xueyan next to her was looking at her nose and nose, and she was also looking at her mouth. It looked like I didn't notice.
"Thank you very much, Miss Lan, but my painting skills are limited and I really don't deserve Miss Lan's praise. If Miss Lan is really interested in painting, I can hire an outside painter to teach Miss Lan how to draw." Mo Huawen smiled lightly. Lan Xinru glanced at Lan Xinru, then turned to Mo Xuetong and said, "Tong'er, your painting is not bad. If Miss Lan really wants to learn painting, you can also help her."
When it comes to this, everyone who can understand can understand it.
But some people just pretended not to understand. Lan Xinru looked at Mo Huawen's face and explained shyly: "Brother Huawen, I know this is very abrupt, but Xinru has admired brother Huawen since she was a child. If she can't follow Huawen, It will be a lifetime regret for Brother Wen to learn painting, and Brother Huawen please be considerate of Xinru's heart."
These words became more and more explicit, and the old lady sitting on it couldn't help but cough lightly. No matter how well-mannered Mo Huawen was, she couldn't help but show a bit of embarrassment at this moment. Mo Xuetong was really... He couldn't listen any more, so he walked over and smiled at Lan Xinru: "Miss Lan, although my father's painting is excellent, he has never taught a girl in his life. Besides, my father's study is in the outer courtyard, and even our sisters are very familiar with it." Because of my father’s paintings, we sisters have never received a share.”
It means that Mo Huawen didn't even teach his own daughter, so how could he teach her, an outsider with no good intentions, to learn painting from her father, a man and a woman alone? Lan Xinru could really tell it.
"Xinru, Hua Wen is busy with official duties every day. How can he have so much time to paint with you? If you really want him to give you some pointers, just draw a few paintings for him to see and teach you everything. That's impossible." The old lady put down the teacup in her hand and had to smile.
They were openly hooking up in front of so many people. The old lady was not as thick-skinned as Lan Xinru. While saving Lan Xinru, she said something that Mo Huawen had to agree with. She only gave some occasional advice. It wasn't really a difficult task, it was just a matter of saying a few words more when we were in the old lady's room. With so many people watching, Lan Xinru couldn't do anything to enchant her.
When it came to this matter, even if Mo Huawen was not happy, he had to agree: "It's not about giving advice, just criticizing each other."
Even if this was an agreement, Lan Xinru immediately beamed with joy and felt proud. Thinking that she could use this excuse to go in and out of Mo Huawen's study in the future, her face was so happy that she almost couldn't hold it back. She glanced at Mo Huawen shyly and left. Returning to the old lady, she didn't say anything out of the ordinary this time.
When she glanced at Mo Xuetong, her chin was slightly raised, quite disdainfully, as if she was the mistress of the Mo family! (To be continued)
