When Mo Huawen returned to Mo Mansion, the first thing he did was angrily go to Mo Xuemin's Fuqing Courtyard. As soon as he entered the door, he asked the two women to throw the clothes and satin in their hands on the table and face Mo Xuemin who was sitting embroidering. With a cold snort, he lifted up his robe and sat down.
"Father, why did you come to see Min'er today? It just so happened that Min'er made a robe for father." Mo Xuemin seemed not to notice Mo Huawen's angry look, and stood up gently and took out a robe from the couch on one side. The dark gray brocade robe was neatly folded and smoothed. It was obvious that a lot of thought had been put into it. "My father made a gesture to see if the size was just right. Min'er was afraid that it would not be done well and would not suit his father." Mind."
Mo Huawen held a breath in his chest, pushed away the robe at hand, pointed at the clothes and satin on the table and said angrily: "You give your sister old clothes and outdated satin, doesn't that mean it's your fault?" of my mind.”
"Father," Mo Xuemin was stunned when she saw Mo Huawen getting angry. Tears fell down as if she couldn't believe it. She had just recovered from a serious illness and was a little out of shape. She hugged Mo Huawen and pushed her away. The man in the robe knelt down and choked with sobs: "What does father mean? Min'er really doesn't understand."
"These old clothes are stained, and you have to give them to your sister again and again. How can your sister wear such gorgeous satin? Min'er, I always thought you were sensible, and I think you She is more in line with her father's wishes than the other two. She is generous, gentle and has the demeanor of an eldest daughter, but now... you disappoint me so much." Mo Huawen's eyes were filled with disappointment. Once upon a time, this was his most proud daughter.
I don’t know why he looks so disgusting now!
Seeing Mo Huawen's appearance, Mo Xuemin's heartbeat stagnated. Knowing that something was wrong, she hurriedly walked a few steps, knelt down in front of Mo Huawen, kowtowed heavily several times, raised her tearful eyes and cried: "Father, how could Min'er do this?" Min'er and Sanmei have always been kind to each other about things like this. Moreover, something like this happened again this time. Miner felt that she was sorry for her father and her two sisters. She had already decided to enshrine the green lantern in front of the Buddha, so how could she still follow Sanmei? My sister is determined to win."
What she said was true and sincere, with a look of agony on her pale face and a hidden sadness in her tone of voice.
"Did I blame you wrongly?" Mo Huawen's expression condensed and he said coldly.
"Father, I made those clothes. I wanted to wear them for a banquet later, but now, where can I go?" Mo Xuemin sobbed and cried, even out of breath. , holding Mo Huawen's trembling hand: "Father, that fur was the one you gave me last time. I couldn't bear to wear it. I only took it to make clothes this time and never wore it. The two pieces of satin were also light. Third sister is so elegant and still in Xiaoli, how could I possibly send such a red satin out."
Mo Xuemin's eyes had already glanced at the two pieces of satin and clothes thrown over. At that time, her heart skipped a beat. She hated Aunt Fang in her heart. She was indeed such an ignorant aunt. Even at this time, she was still reluctant to part with her belongings. She actually exchanged them for herself. She gave Mo Xuetong clothes as a token of goodwill, but it was useless to hate her at this time, so she simply changed the problem.
She burst into tears while crying.
Mo Xiu, who was kneeling next to her, took her signal and hurriedly stepped forward to help Mo Xuemin up, crying too: "Master, the eldest lady really gave her best to the third lady. Something like this happened this time , the eldest lady was insulted because of her stupidity, how could she still be in the mood to dress up, so she simply gave all the things she usually couldn't bear to part with to the third lady, but who knew that something would happen after giving away, if she had known this, it would be better for the eldest lady not to give it away. To avoid being suspected by the third lady now."
On the one hand, she said that Mo Xuemin was wronged, but on the other hand, she blamed Mo Xuetong, as if Mo Xuetong was deliberately looking for trouble.
Mo Huawen's face became unhappy.
"Shut up, Mo Xiu. Third sister is not that kind of person. Someone must have changed the clothes I gave to third sister. Father, please help your daughter to check. If nothing is found, my daughter is willing to bear the crime." Mo Xuemin After scolding Mo Xiu, he spoke out in aggrieved manner.
Seeing Mo Xuemin's look, Mo Huawen also became suspicious. He turned to look at the two women who were following him, slammed the table hard, and said angrily: "Tell me, who changed the clothes that the eldest lady gave to the third lady?" .”
"Master, it's my aunt. Aunt Fang asked me to change." The two women were frightened and fell to their knees, trembling.
It was Aunt Fang again. Mo Huawen was trembling. He thought that Aunt Fang, a short-sighted person, not only treated Tong'er viciously, but also harmed his own daughter. He looked at Mo Xuemin crying and kneeling in front of him, choking. He couldn't say anything, his face was pale and haggard, and he just felt so angry.
"Come here, pull these two old slaves down and beat them ten times." Mo Huawen said angrily.
The two women were also wronged. First, they were called in by Mo Xiu to deliver items to the Fuguo Palace. Unexpectedly, they were intercepted by Aunt Fang's people at the door. They thought it was no big deal, so they exchanged two pieces of satin for two others. He was so scared that he could only kowtow because he didn't expect to cause such a thing.
Mo Huawen was so angry that he didn't care what these two women thought. He stood up angrily and walked to Lihuayuan to find Aunt Fang.
"Father, please don't leave. Min'er may have made a mistake in this matter. No wonder auntie." Mo Xuemin pulled Mo Huawen's robe, her face turned pale from crying, and she took all the blame for the mistake, looking like she was afraid that Mo Hua Wen went to Aunt Fang to get angry, which made Mo Hua Wen feel soft-hearted again.
After all, it was the child he had loved for more than ten years, and he had witnessed with his own eyes how wronged he was for an unlucky aunt. Mo Huawen sighed in his heart, sat down again, and pulled her up. Mo Xiu was busy on the other side. Hold her up.
"Min'er, I know your aunt has failed to live up to her expectations and has brought trouble to you." Mo Huawen's face softened a lot.
"My aunt gave birth to a daughter, and she is her mother no matter what. The son will not think the mother is ugly. My aunt made mistakes, and my daughter is willing to bear them. I beg my father not to be angry with my aunt again. She, she is not in good health..."
Mo Xuemin played this skill beautifully. She first mentioned that she didn't mind Aunt Fang's low status, and then accepted all the mistakes. Finally, she went round and round and attributed all this to her filial piety, even though Mo Huawen was full of it. The anger has disappeared at this time. The daughter in front of me is still the gentle and generous Min'er
But although Mo Xuemin said everything was reasonable and had two mothers-in-law confirming it, Mo Huawen would not believe it as blindly as before. He still kept a clear mind and asked with a deep look: "Min'er , you are the master of the house, although Aunt Fang gave birth to you, but you must remember that your mother is the wife, and if you want to be filial, you should also be filial to the wife."
"Yes, father, my daughter was ignorant and in a moment of impatience, she said the wrong thing." Mo Xuemin nodded, holding the handkerchief and wiping her tears as she apologized.
"Okay, you have a good rest, your body will be healthy, and you don't want to wear any clothes." Mo Huawen stood up and walked out. Behind him, Mo Xuemin held Mo Xiu's hand and delicately walked him to the door.
Seeing Mo Huawen's back disappear at the entrance of the courtyard, Mo Xuemin returned to the back room and sat down, holding the handkerchief with a stern look on her face.
Seeing Mo Xuemin's expression, Mo Xiu stood aside, trying his best to keep his eyes and noses in sight, but did not dare to say a word, for fear that he would accidentally offend the young lady and suffer the consequences of his own.
"Send someone to check on Aunt Fang later." After a while, Mo Xuemin said coldly, "Tell her not to hide some things. If you don't tell her now, even if there is a chance, she will have to do it. She wants to be favored by her father, and while her uncle can still say a few words for her... "
Although my father rushed to find Aunt Fang, he must not have time to go there. His uncle, the uncle of the Yu family, came early today and had just met Aunt Fang. At this time, he must be waiting outside in the study. Aunt Fang was separated from the Yu family. My father and the entire Yu family have known about their daughter for many years, they just needed the opportunity to reveal it.
The Yu family is also a well-known and prosperous family. Naturally, they don't want their legitimate daughter to become their father's concubine, so they delay the matter again and again. But now is the perfect time. There is an uncle who openly proposes it. Even if the father objects again, I couldn't say it out loud for a while, and besides, when I came to Beijing, my father had agreed to it in private.

"Yes." Mo Xiu murmured twice before he couldn't help but said, "If the master is angry with my aunt for this, wouldn't it ruin my aunt's plan?"
"Her plans will never keep up with that bitch's changes, so she should just settle down and don't ruin my business." Mo Xuemin sneered disdainfully. If it wasn't for her shortsightedness, why would she have to act in front of her father today? Such a big deal may not necessarily be a thankless task.
Without her secret manipulation, what he would do next would be much simpler.
Now she could only use her uncle and father to suppress her, and at the same time deal with Mo Xuetong, a cunning little bitch. Unexpectedly, she was unscathed in the palace, but her own reputation was ruined. How could this not be called Mo Xuetong? Gritting his teeth resentfully.
In the study.
Yu Feng had been waiting there for a long time. He and Mo Huawen had been together in Yuncheng for many years, and they could be regarded as good friends for many years. Later, Aunt Fang secretly recognized her ancestor.
Yufeng is a middle-aged man of about forty years old, with a thin appearance. If you look closely, his slightly pointed chin looks like Aunt Fang. Aunt Fang is his biological sister. When he was a child, he lost his nanny together with him while watching the lanterns. Yufeng was quite happy to find this long-lost sister.
"Master Mo, I've been waiting here for a long time. Why did it take so long to leave? I thought you had broken off all contact with Duke Fu." Because I had waited for a long time, Yufeng's words were a bit sour. He felt a little resentful when he thought that his sister was still his aunt, and that she was not as good as before these days.
"The third daughter is not in good health and lives with her mother-in-law. I went to take a look. I came back late. Please forgive me, Mr. Wangyu!" Mo Huawen suppressed the anger in his heart. He knew that he would come to the house for nothing, so he took two steps forward with a smile. He explained with a haha.
The two sat down separately as guest and host, and the servants served tea.
The two drank a few sips before talking about business. (To be continued)
