Chapter 200 Respected
After Mo Chenxi heard what Mother Wang said, she thought to herself that she deserved it.
He Wenyan finally knows the true identities of his mother and his sister, right?
How could he continue to say things against his conscience about his mother's life?
He once said that he truly felt his mother had a hard time and that she was only thinking about him.
But don't expect him to have any big changes. At most, he will be silent. After a long time, the scar will heal and the pain will be forgotten. He will be considerate of his mother again.
Because modern fathers are like this. Once, she accidentally heard what her grandmother said and was greatly shocked. She thought her father would recognize the truth in the future.
Unfortunately, within two years, my father began to understand my mother and sisters, and felt that his daughter-in-law was unreasonable.
This is bloodline.
Of course, not all men would be like this, but Mo Chenxi felt that He Wenyan would be like this.
He Wenyan did not go to see his aunt, but sat for a while and then returned to the government office.
He felt that he really had no face to see his aunt and also had no face to face Mrs. Mo. It turned out that he was the only confused person in the family. His second brother was not his mother's biological child, so even if he knew something, he would not tell him.
My third brother had spoken to him several times in a roundabout way, but what did he do? He scolded my third brother.
After He Wenyan came back in the evening, Mrs. He did not mention He's visit. If she did, it would only embarrass her nephew and make him think she was meddling too much.
She only said that she would visit the Mo family tomorrow. He Wenyan said, "I'm so sorry, I have something to do at the government office tomorrow, otherwise I should take my aunt with me."
This was He Wenyan's original plan, but after hearing what his mother and second sister said yesterday, he felt speechless in front of his father-in-law.
He felt that his father-in-law's family knew what his mother was like and never said it to save his face.
This would make him feel ashamed in front of his father-in-law.
Old Mrs. He was very disappointed. After all, it was the first time someone came to visit the ancestral home, and her eldest nephew, as her son-in-law, should be accompanying him. She wondered how her eldest nephew could have achieved the fifth rank with such a character?
He would have needed help from his father-in-law's family, so shouldn't he go?
There was no way out. Since they were members of her He family, she had to explain to Mrs. Mo that He Wenyan had wanted to go with them, but she didn't let him because the government office's business was more important.
Old Mrs. He felt embarrassed to say this, because Mrs. Mo's eyes seemed to say, "You don't need to explain, I know everything."
Later, Mrs. Wang, who was by Mrs. Mo's side, escorted her out and whispered to her what happened yesterday.
Mother Wang was a servant of the Mo family. After she came to the He family, she would occasionally invite the He family's servants to dinner and buy some wine and food for the doorman, so she knew what happened at the door yesterday.
She deliberately said, "I saw that the old lady was a sensible person, so I didn't dare tell our aunt. I heard from other servants that our aunt used to be so angry about things like this, and the uncle always sided with the old lady and her daughter. Otherwise, our aunt was so angry that she fell seriously ill and almost died last year, and this uncle even blamed our aunt for being unfilial."
Mother Wang started to cry as she spoke. "Our master told me to pretend I didn't hear anything about the He family and not to do anything about it. He just told us, Madam Gu, to eat a few more bites, otherwise my body wouldn't be able to bear it."
Old Mrs. He understood that without Mrs. Mo's instructions, Mother Wang would not have said so much.
She stuffed a piece of loose silver into Mother Wang's hand and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Just listen to your old master and take good care of the lady. It's more important than anything else."
Mother Wang took the silver and knelt down, saying, "Our aunt said that finally there is an elder who can understand her. Otherwise, she would have died of suffocation."
Old Mrs. He sighed and returned to the front yard. She saw that Old Madam Jiang had not slept yet and was still eating. She wondered why she didn't eat herself to death.
She didn't say hello and went straight into her room.
Madam Jiang also called out, "Sister-in-law, come and eat together. These are snacks from Wufangzhai."
Old Madam He lifted the door curtain and said, "I heard that the Wufangzhai shop was my niece's dowry. Why was it sold? Oh, right, my eldest nephew said he sold it to pay back the loan he had made."
Madam Jiang stopped eating and said, "That was when Mrs. Mo was seriously ill and the medicine was too expensive, so my son borrowed money from a loan shark."
Old Mrs. He knew that she was talking nonsense, but she was still angry when she heard it and swung the door curtain.
Madam Jiang muttered softly, "You're so awesome even though you live in someone else's house."
Old Mrs. He felt that her daughter's mother-in-law in Xiangzhou was difficult enough. She had seen many unreasonable people and heard of even more. But a sister-in-law like this could still make her angry.
If it weren't for my grandson, I really wouldn't want to live here.
Think about it, last time I advised Mrs. Mo to consider the relationship between husband and wife. Now that my nephew has acted like this, why should he still consider the relationship between husband and wife?
It’s probably because of the four children that I’m indifferent to the He family, otherwise I would be so frustrated.
My nephew is worse than someone who favors his concubine and neglects his wife, and doesn't treat his original wife well. At least if you argue with him and argue with him, you can still explain the whole story to outsiders.
But a man like my eldest nephew looks like a gentleman to outsiders. Isn't he a good man if he is filial to his mother?
At this moment, Old Lady He was too considerate of the Mo family. Her own in-laws were worthless, and her son-in-law was even less so. She could only go to their door and beat them up.
But the Mo family can't do anything about such a son-in-law.
Old Mrs. He pounded her chest twice. She felt suffocated after only two days. The Mo family has been around for almost twenty years, and there are still the old couple in the Mo family. Isn't that suffocating?
The next morning, Old Madam He prepared the specialties she brought from Xiangzhou. Old Madam Jiang kept muttering, "Does the Mo family still need these things from you?"
Old Madam He scolded, "Shut up! The Mo family is so hungry for gold and silver, are you ready?"
"Why should I prepare anything for them? I came all the way here, and the Mo family didn't even ask to come see me. Why should I prepare anything for them?"
Old Mrs. He didn't want to take her with her at all. With her around, the Mo family's cold attitude was so awkward.
Mo Chenxi followed them back home. When they arrived at the Mo family, they saw that his father and mother were already prepared, and his mother was holding Xiangxiang.
Old Mrs. He didn't know who Xiangxiang was and thought she was the granddaughter of the Mo family. Fortunately, she brought the gift for the meeting.
She was younger than the Mo couple, so she was the first to introduce herself with a smile.
Seeing that his niece's father didn't move, he thought that there was a difference between men and women. Old Mrs. Mo, who was holding her granddaughter, didn't move either. He felt that the Mo family was a bit arrogant.
Since the Mo family’s father was not available, the old lady should stand up and greet her in person.
It seems that what she thought was right, and the Mo family was a little angry with her.
Mo Chenxi knew what his mother meant and deliberately showed off, especially in front of the He family.
Old Madam Mo said, "Jingyi's mother, quickly help your aunt sit down. You see, I can't free my hands. Xiangxiang can't leave me. She must let me hold her."
Mo Chenxi helped Old Lady He sit down and explained, "Xiangxiang is the youngest daughter of the Empress Dowager's cousin. After coming to Beijing, her family lived in my mother's house. Therefore, Xiangxiang is closest to my mother. Recently, she has been living in my mother's house and sleeping with my mother."
Old Mrs. He was filled with awe and never mentioned the Mo family's idea of looking down on her again.
Although he knew that Mrs. Mo was showing off, he thought to himself, it's amazing, the Empress Dowager's niece and her mother look like grandparents.
