Chapter 295 Mo Yufeng Was Wronged

It was already the second day when Mo Xuetong heard that Mo Yufeng was going to marry Lady Li. His father had already sent the message out.

This matter originally had nothing to do with her. This morning, when she went to greet Xu Yan, she heard that Father was angry the previous night, and had beaten Mo Yufeng so harshly that he could not get out of the bed. Furthermore, he was also grounded and wasn’t allowed out of the house.

She could not understand how so much drama originated from this marriage. Furthermore, she was amazed at the hastiness of the event. Ever since the message had been sent out, Father arranged for the marriage gifts. He did not specify quantity or quality, asking Xu Yan to decide, which meant that he did not intend to put any effort into it.

The sloppiness of Father’s actions was unlike that of his meticulous personality, especially towards the marriage of his only son.

Mo Xuetong was full of doubts. After thinking about it for a while in Qingwei Garden, she sent Mo Ye out.

At noon, the messenger came back with a reply for Xu Yan. The marriage had been settled!

Mo Xuetong thought about it before going to Yanyu House, meeting the delightful messenger on her way there.

When she entered Yanyu House, before she even spoke, Xu Yan ordered the servants to retreat, leaving the space private to Mo Xuetong and her.

“Mother, why is my brother’s marriage so rushed?” Sitting beside Xu Yan, Mo Xuetong asked curiously. The marriage came incomprehensibly quick.

“I heard... that it would be too late if he does not marry...” Xu Yan blushed and uttered the words out. It’s difficult for her to explain the situation to her unmarried stepdaughter. However, rumors would eventually spread to her ears, and the truth of this unglamorous marriage would be known sooner or later.

“How can that be the case!” Mo Xuetong understood and asked in shock, unable to believe what she heard.

It this matter was true, her father, who cared a lot about his reputation, must be furious.

Sighing, Xu Yan continued, “Therefore, your father suggested that the two families will merely send each other some simple gifts. After all, he is the son of a concubine and there’s no need to put so much effort into the wedding.” Xu Yan didn’t seem to be upset as she explained the situation.

That’s true. If Mo Yufeng was a competent child, it would be very difficult for her son to complete in the future. Luckily, in his father’s eyes, he was merely a useless son of a concubine. Xu Yan was probably secretly delighted.

Mo Xuetong heaved a sigh of relief too as she realized that those words meant that Father had given up on Mo Yufeng. That’s good as great expectations would only bring great disappointments in the future. Giving up on him early would mean that his bastardly actions would not anger Father as much in the future. She was never close to Mo Yufeng anyways, for Mo Xuemin and Auntie Fang bullied her in her previous life because they had Mo Yufeng as their support.

Mo Xuetong exchanged some polite words with Xu Yan before returning to Qingwei Garden.

As she entered her room, she found that Mo Ye had been waiting there. Seeing that Mo Xuetong arrived, she came forth to report her findings. Thus, a spectacular drama appeared before Mo Xuetong’s eyes. The twists and turns within it were absolutely no less than an actual show, perhaps even more dramatic.

It was rumored that Lady Li was born from a wealthy family, the daughter of a rich businessman from Jiangnan. She was sixteen years old, the best age for a woman. She was pretty and her mother was a cousin of Ding General, meaning that she was related to the empress’s family.

She just came to the imperial city from Jiangnan a few days ago and was living in a new mansion. With mysterious reasons, someone kidnapped the girl one day. Afterward, she was found meeting with a young man, scantily dressed. After having found out, the man hid his face with a fan and left, disappearing.

People then heard rumors that the house was a property owned by the oldest son of Qin family. Thus, the Li family went to Qin family and asked Qin Yufeng to bear responsibility for his actions. This matter spread far and wide, and the entire imperial city knew about this joke of a matter.

The proper descendent of Qin family, the handsome and famous Qin Yufeng, would never marry the daughter of a businesswoman under such indecent circumstances. However, this matter had already spread far and wide, and it would be impossible to cover it up. It was also rumored that those from the Qin family had chased the Li family out.

It was reasonable as the knowledgeable Qin Yufeng would find it difficult to enter politics if he was involved in such scandals. Lord Qin always had high hopes for his son and would not let a woman ruin his son’s future. Moreover, no one saw his son there and he would definitely deny the accusation.

While Qin family refused to acknowledge their wrongdoing, Li family spread the news that Lady Li had a token of love that Qin Yufeng left. When the come over again, they would show everyone the token and ask everyone to witness it. They had to let the young master of the Qin family be responsible for his actions or their girl could never get married.

Everyone was interested in how the drama unfolded. The more mysterious the matter, the wider it spread.

No one expected Mo Yufeng to suddenly involve himself in the drama.

He announced that the man was him, and thus he came forth to ask for the maiden’s marriage.

Li family was glad that someone was willing to take responsibility, and was delighted that it was the only son of lord mayor. Even though he was only the son of a concubine, he could take over the entire family in the future and thus Li family agreed on the spot. They awarded the messenger ten pounds of silver and asked Mo family to quickly marry the girl, as she could already bear the child of Mo family.

Although Li family was the family of a rich businessman, they were always in contact with the peasants and thus their words were vulgar. Hence, when Mo Xuetong asked Xu Yan, she struggled to explain what they said, embarrassed.

If she did not ask Mo Ye to investigate the details, she would not have expected such huge drama.

“Miss, Lady Li is so stupid. How did she not know who the person was when she was scantily dressed with him for so long.” Mo Yu complained in disdain as she was curious about how Lady Li did not know who the person was when the two were together for so long.

Mo Xuetong smiled happily as she picked up needles beside her, sewing casually. Smiling, she exclaimed, “Lady Li wasn’t the stupidest. The stupidest would be my brother!”

“Miss, why would sir be stupid. He is so sly! Once Auntie Fang got into trouble, he never mentioned her name again. Before that, he had always mentioned Auntie Fang with respect and filial piety.” Mo Yu never liked Mo Yufeng as she remembered that he had always been arrogant towards her master. Thus, she mocked him.

Mo Xuetong placed down the needles in her hands and did not continue the conversation. Turning to look at Mo Yu, she smiled thoughtfully.

Mo Yu was confused at Mo Xuetong’s smile and thus looked at her with confusion.

“Mo Yu, did Nanny Ming ask you to investigate young master?” At the side, Mo Lan smiled.

“That’s not true...” Mo Yu’s face reddens as she placed down the box she was arranging, kneeling in front of Mo Xuetong at once. Frustrated, she complained, “Miss, please do not ask Nanny Ming to send me there again. There’s no information at where young master resides. Out of the ten servants in his house, eight slept with him. Those seductive bitches all thought they were the masters! They made me mad.”

“They all treat you like their servants?” Mo Xuetong asked plainly, trying to hide her smile from her chubby white face.

Beside her, Mo Ye found her expression familiar.

“They won’t dare!” Mo Yu was annoyed.

“That’s fine. Just treat what you saw and what you hear as stories. Regardless of the taste, it’s important that you experienced it. We don’t need you to do anything. If you join them, they would be busy flattering you!” Mo Xuetong explained casually as she mocked her.

“Miss...” Mo Yu pulled on the clothes of her master.

“Alright, alright, get up. Nanny Ming can only ask you to go as she only trusts you three. She will be worried if she didn’t have you covering that place.” Mo Xuetong pulled Mo Yu’s hand, trying to pull her up.

Seeing that her lady personally came to pull her up, Mo Yu didn’t resist. Thinking about it, she realized that only the three of them were useful to her master as they followed Nanny Ming from Cloud City. Mo Ye knew kung fu and was naturally in charge of protecting her lady. Mo Lan was always composed and had to stay next to her lady to settle problems. Only she seemed to have no talent, with only one way of contribution.

“Only stupid things ever occur in the young master’s household.” She continued to complain.

She was mostly unsatisfied that the roles of concubines and servants were ambiguous in that household, as all the servants tried to convince her to be a sexual servant for the young master. They explained that the young master had long been interested in her, and she would become his concubine if she followed him.

If she gave birth to a son in the future, she could even be his wife.

Even though Mo Yu was not as composed as Mo Lan, she was smart too. She knew that the young master was only interested in her because she was the confidant of her lady. She knew that the young master would love to find an opportunity to harm her lady, and he would definitely force her to harm her lady if she followed him.

However, as an unmarried woman, she was afraid to voice out her concerns, choosing only to hint to Mo Xuetong. Hence, she took the opportunity and pretended to be complaining. Since the young master tried to entice him, her other servants could be enticed as well.

She also wanted to show her loyalty.

In this case, the intelligent Mo Xuetong immediately understood what she meant and smiled. “Don’t worry, Mo Yu. I really could not bear to leave you. Just visit the place from time to time, and leave the rest of the problem to Nanny Ming.”

“Yes, I will always listen to my lady.” Mo Yu promised.

Mo Xuetong did not intend to pursue Mo Yufeng’s matter as she knew that Qin Yufeng was definitely involved. As sly as Qin Yufeng was, he would never get the bad end of a deal. Furthermore, he was Feng Yuxuan’s adviser, advising him on how to obtain the Great Qin for himself. A promiscuous man like Mo Yufeng could not be compared to him at all.

He would definitely lose out!

However, she did not know who set Qin Yufeng up. It’s extremely hurtful to Qin Yufeng for such rumors to spread. Furthermore, they even came over to his house and spread the matter all over the city. It’s truly a defeat for him as he almost married Lady Li.

She wondered if Qin Yufeng had ever experienced such a big loss in his life.

However, being Qin Yufeng, he threw the problem to Mo Yufeng at once. It seemed that Mo Yufeng would lose out more.

In the afternoon, the manor became busy as everyone was looking for possible gifts from inside the manor due to the haste. When he returned to the manor, Mo Huawen merely said “There’s no need to be exquisite” before throwing the problem to Xu Yan.

It was a mess in the manor.

Mo Xuetong had settled her gifts and was thus not involved. After having her dinner, she became sleepy and slept early. She had numerous headaches during this period of time and checked her pulse to see if she was sick, but found no abnormality. She knew that winter was coming and thus she might be tired from the change in seasons.

She woke up groggy and remembered a strange voice in her dream. In her previous life, when the fire was burning around her, someone did charge in to find her...
