Lan Xinru couldn't compare to the daughter of her uncle's family.
And the old lady is in charge, so she is considered an elder and cannot be regarded as giving or receiving privately.
The old lady glanced at the sachet angrily, and did not reach out to take it. She said coldly: "I just mentioned this matter, and I can't do anything about it. Although the old lady's niece is not bad, I still have to ask more. Just ask around. This needlework is just average. It can’t even be compared with the girl Xinru. Think about it again. Marrying someone who doesn’t know anything is not as good as marrying someone who knows everything. While I’m still here, you can marry someone who knows everything. Now that your marriage is done, it can be considered as a matter of concern for me."
"Yes, yes, that's what my mother taught me!" Mo Huawen said respectfully, but he just couldn't give the right words.
The angry old lady lost interest in talking anymore. After saying a few words that were neither salty nor bland, Mo Huawen was sent away.
"Auntie, help me! Auntie, help me!" Mo Huawen left the old lady's house, and Lan Xinru cried out from behind the screen and threw herself into the old lady's arms, crying so hard.
"Xinru girl, it's not that my aunt doesn't want to help you. You have also seen that Hua Wen has other ideas in her heart. She has already had her own ideas." The old lady was also feeling uncomfortable. Although the old lady was noble, she could not Mo Huawen was in charge of Mo Huawen's marriage. Mo Huawen said that because he agreed in his heart.
The old lady couldn't object to Luo Xia's matter at that time. Now that she has a position to object, Mo Huawen has already nodded. No matter how much she has objections, she also understands that she is not Mo Huawen's biological mother. Calling himself mother is already an expression of his gratitude.
"Aunt, I am sincere to my cousin and am willing to do anything for my cousin. Please help me, aunt." Lan Xinru saw the old lady's expression dim, knelt down, held the old lady's sleeves and cried, "Aunt only wants me. After marrying my cousin, I can help Xueyan with her marriage in the future, and I can also help Xueyan choose a desirable marriage. If it were anyone else, who would think about Xueyan."
Her words struck a chord in the old lady's heart. Whether Mo Xueyan's marriage was high or low had indeed become a concern for the old lady. The purpose of her coming to Beijing was for Mo Xueyan's marriage, so she went against Mo Huawen's hint. If so, let Mo Xueyan go to the second door to see each other by herself.
It's not that the old lady doesn't know the rules, but she really can't defeat Mo Xueyan.
But I secretly watched so many things, and Mo Xueyan's marriage was still not high or low. There were a few bastards who saw a beautiful woman peeking at the second door, and started teasing her. Mo Xueyan looked down on such people. "Every gentleman walked by without looking at Mo Xueyan. She was good-looking and ignored by others, so there was no point in coming to propose marriage."
In the end, Mo Huawen asked someone to watch Mo Xueyan at the second gate, and the matter of watching was settled.
But this matter is difficult to achieve, and it is always a thorn in the old lady's heart. Now that she hears Lan Xinru's heart-warming words, how can she not be moved.
After thinking about it again and again, the old lady said with a calm face to a confidant who was standing aside: "It's been cold at night these days. I heard that Hua Wen has been staying in the study. Go find the lady in charge and get the key to the study. , in the evening, I asked someone to bring some hot soup to Wen'er, the outer courtyard is full of servants, who knows how to wait for people."
"Yes, old lady." The mother-in-law understood deeply.
Lan Xinru, who was kneeling on the ground, had a proud smile on her tear-stained face.
In the Zhenguo Hou Mansion
Sima Lingyun had woken up and knew the subsequent development of the matter. He almost jumped out of bed anxiously. The most serious injury to him was his face, and he was kicked unconscious later. The other injuries were minor injuries. When he woke up It was nothing serious when I arrived, but I heard that my mother had detained Mo Xuemin at home, and she had just returned from Mo Mansion, and she almost fainted.
How could he want to marry Mo Xuetong? He already had Mo Xueqiong. Not only would Mo Xuemin not be of any help to him, but he would also push Mo Xuetong away. He and Mo Xuetong would have no chance. The three daughters of the concubine would not be married into the same family. The Mo family is now the family of a dignified third-rank official. Mo Huawen is not old and has a bright future. There are many people who want to marry his family. How can he hang on to the decline? At the mansion of the Marquis of Zhenguo.
If what happened yesterday comes to pass, he will not only gain a reputation as a hero who saves beautiful women, but he will also plan to postpone Mo Xueqiong's marriage and make Mo Xuetong more determined to marry him. In this way, Mo Xuetong will be grateful to him, and Mo Huawen, Everyone in the Fu Guo Duke's Mansion thanked her for protecting Mo Xuetong. With these two powerful supports, how could the Zhen Guo Hou's Mansion not prosper
Who would have thought that Mo Xuetong would be so strong-willed that she stabbed him with a sharp weapon in the car without thinking about her own safety. He also fainted from the pain and kicked Mo Xuetong out. Then what happened next was completely out of control. Who could have imagined that? His Royal Highness Prince Xuan, the most favored emperor, actually saved Mo Xuetong and even set up such a trap for him.
He didn't even know when he had offended His Highness Prince Xuan.
Not only did it ruin the marriage he had wanted for a long time, but it also completely destroyed the good reputation that he had been carefully maintaining. Thinking that he was inexplicably responsible for wanting to rape Mo Xuemin, but he couldn't succeed because of Mo Xuemin's desperate resistance. , Sima Lingyun was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and his mother confused Mo Xuemin and kept Mo Xuemin in his bedroom all night, and now he couldn't explain it clearly even if he wanted to.
How could he want to marry Mo Xuemin!
But it was obvious that Sima Lingyun's troubles were not limited to this. A young boy ran in sweating profusely and shouting: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something is wrong!"
"What's the matter?" Sima Lingyun asked anxiously. His already pale face was even more pale and bloodless.
The Marquis of Zhenguo's wife next to her also turned pale with shock.
"Someone from the Ministry of Punishment... arrested the prince for questioning... At this time, he rushed into the second door." The boy was frightened and couldn't speak clearly in a panic.
Someone from the Ministry of Punishment came. How could someone come from the Ministry of Punishment for such a romantic affair? Sima Lingyun was stunned.
"It's contrary, it's contrary. Come and find out clearly. Just say that this is the Zhenguo Hou's Mansion and no one is allowed to be presumptuous." Mrs. Zhen Guohou was also anxious and stood up in a hurry and said angrily.

The people in the Criminal Department were all men, and they dared to rush into the second gate with such arrogance and lead them straight to the inner courtyard. This was an insult to the Gongyun family. Madam Zhen Guohou was so angry that she led several women to the second gate. Hurry, the matter between Mo Xuemin and Sima Lingyun is not a big deal. At most, it is just a matter of boredom for the children of the aristocratic family. When did it have anything to do with the Emperor's Criminal Department
At the second gate, the people from the Criminal Department did not rush into the second gate in a swagger as the boy said. Instead, they were politely guarding the second gate under the leadership of a young criminal officer. When they saw Mrs. Zhen Guohou rushing out of the second gate, He came up to her with a smile and held her hands in greeting: "This is the Madam of the Marquis of Zhenguo. It is polite to be a low-ranking official because of official duties."
As he spoke, he bowed in a polite manner, not at all like the kind of person who just wanted to get things done.
Most of Madam Zhenguo Hou's anger had dissipated, and her eyes involuntarily fell on a few fierce-looking government officials behind him. Those few people did not look as easy to talk to as the young criminal officers. Their eyes were cold and stern, and they looked straight at him. Madam Zhenguohou did not bow her head either.
This kind of person has really killed people, and the evil spirit makes people's hearts tremble unconsciously.
"Your Excellency, you are so polite. I wonder why this Excellency came to Zhenguohou's Mansion today?" After observing the situation, Mrs. Zhenguohou put on a smile on her face and pretended to be generous and calm. When I look at those ferocious faces, my heart won't tremble so much.
"Madam, I don't know where the prince is. Something happened in the capital last night. I heard it was related to the prince. The lower official was ordered by the superior officer to send the prince for questioning."
"The Crown Prince was injured last night and hasn't woken up yet. I'm afraid he can't go with the noble officials. Can I let him come over when he wakes up?" Mrs. Zhenguo Hou said politely.
"I'm afraid this won't work. Madam, please don't make things difficult for us errands. If the superior officer knows that the lower officer didn't bring the crown prince, there won't be just a few people coming at once. Madam, don't worry. She's just taking the crown prince to ask questions. It won't be long before you can come back." The criminal officer's words were soft but tough, and although the smile on his face was warm, Mrs. Zhen Guohou really didn't dare to take it seriously.
Mrs. Zhenguo Hou took a long breath, suppressed the panic in her heart, and wanted to say a few good words to accompany her smiling face, when she heard a weak voice behind her: "Mother, my son is awake. He will follow this official right now." , you go and rest first, nothing will happen."
Turning around hastily, I saw Sima Lingyun weakly supporting the shoulders of the two boys and coming out of it. Blood was oozing from the bandages in many places on his body. It was clear from the look that he was in a miserable condition. The young criminal officer waved his hand and walked over immediately. The two people pushed the boy away and supported Sima Lingyun.
"Your Majesty, I'm offended. Let's go with the official." The young prison officer smiled and greeted the guests. If he hadn't seen the ferocious government officials behind him, he would have thought that he was a noble family member inviting guests into the house.
"Your Majesty, your work is over." Sima Lingyun smiled weakly at him and said softly.
"You're welcome!" The young criminal officer waved his hand, and several people hugged Sima Lingyun and turned around and walked away, leaving only the stunned and pale Madam Zhen Guohou.
"Mother, mother, brother, eldest brother, what should I do?..." Sima Heyan rushed out from the second door and was shocked. She was punished because of Sima Lingyun yesterday. She had been angry with Sima Lingyun since she returned home. Later she heard about Sima Lingyun. When she came back with Mo Xuemin, she was so angry that she didn't even care about Sima Lingyun's injury and didn't even look at him.
At this time, seeing that he was really being taken away by the Ministry of Punishment, he became anxious and no longer wanted to fight with him, so he asked his mother eagerly.
Yun Yiqiu followed timidly behind her, her delicate body supported on the shoulder of a maid, panting heavily, unable to say a word, just looking at Madam Zhen Guohou eagerly, thinking she was in a hurry, But he still arrived too late, so he didn't see the whole thing clearly and didn't understand what happened.
"It's okay. Your elder brother is okay. He'll be back in a while. Go back first, us!" Mrs. Zhenguo Hou's voice was soft and cottony. She didn't know whether she was comforting herself or the two women. Her straight back was bent. , coughing involuntarily. She was not in good health. She didn't sleep last night. She got angry again in Mo Mansion early in the morning. She was startled again just now. At this time, she was still busy here, but her body couldn't relax. , coughed twice and then collapsed.
Sima Heyan was so frightened that she screamed and stretched out her hands to support him. There was another panic on Zhen Guohou's side. (To be continued)
