I didn't sleep well all night last night, Mo Mingzhu was also a little sleepy, and after eating some decoction prepared by Snow Lotus, he slept until the second day.

The maids came to groom and dress Mo Mingzhu, and stared at Mo Mingzhu when they entered the door, slightly puzzled and surprised, how could they look at it...... It seems a little different...... But I can't say what has changed.

Like, not as ugly as it used to be?

The maid took out the red and green skirts and earthy hairpins that Mo Mingzhu wore before.

"Who told you to take these things □□ your heads? Thrown! Also, these rouge gouaches were thrown together! ”

The maids are strange, these used to be the most common jewelry worn by the eldest lady, basically given by the second lady, and some were casually rewarded by the old lady, all of which were outdated styles used by the old lady's generation. The eldest lady has low self-esteem because of her dark face, and she will definitely apply a thick layer of rouge gouache when she goes out, otherwise she will never go out, and now, she actually let them throw it away!

"Miss, you can't be so self-defeating......"

Mo Mingzhu: "......"

I lost a gorgeous dress full of bells and whistles in my wardrobe (what the hell!). Then Mo Mingzhu finally picked a plain skirt and took a jasper hairpin to make a headdress.

"Miss, the eldest lady asked you to dress up well, you, you dress like this, it's really ...... It's so plain......"

"I have my own plans!"

Mo Mingzhu glared at the maid, and the maid immediately shut up. She is not in the limelight, it is best to let the three princes see her and hate her once, and quickly withdraw from the marriage! Don't fall in love with her! But if he looks down on her, this "leper-clam-toad", it will be hell, and a noble white lotus like Mo Xuelan is the type he likes......

When Mo Mingzhu finished dressing up, all the maids were taken aback and couldn't believe that this was Mo Mingzhu.

"Big, Miss, ......?"

In addition to those complicated and exaggerated cheesy clothes, Mo Mingzhu is elegant, plain, well-behaved, and his eyes are shining, without the slightest bit of the previous submissiveness, self-confidence and generosity.

Although her skin is still dark, she is full of healthy light, and the whole person seems to be refreshed!

If Mo Mingzhu used to be a pebble rolling with mud, now that the mud has been washed away, it has begun to glow slightly......

The maids couldn't help but rub their eyes again, and secretly looked at Mo Mingzhu, secretly feeling that they were crazy, and they actually ...... actually saw some charm in Mo Mingzhu...... It's not crazy, how else can it be explained? Their young lady Mo Mingzhu is the first ugly girl in Chang'an City for more than ten years!

*

The ancient environment is good, and the blue sky and white clouds are exceptionally beautiful!

By the lotus pond, there are six or seven small tables, a group of people are dressed in gorgeous costumes, silk and satin, the style is beautiful, reflecting the lotus green leaves, the scenery is pleasant. The melon seeds, fruit cakes, etc. placed on the table, the fruity aroma mixed with the fragrance of lotus flowers, sent in bursts.

It's a pity that under such a beautiful summer scenery, that person is not so harmonious-

In the middle sat the old lady of the General's Mansion, surrounded by her mother and maid who were serving her, and Mo Xiaoman was obediently beating her shoulder; The old lady's table was on the left and right of the small table, and several aunts and cousins in the house sat in turn, as well as their respective maids.

Aunt Liu looked at the sun, glanced at the old lady, and said in a strange manner: "Oh, this eldest lady is really big!" The day before yesterday, I almost disfigured our Xiaoman's face, and beat Liu's mother, who had worked hard, half to death and threw her out of the house, not to mention, and now, let us wait for her here. What a big face! ”

When everyone heard this, their faces darkened a little, and they secretly complained about Mo Mingzhu.

At the upper seat, the old lady looked stern, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, and she couldn't pay attention to it anymore when she heard the words, her eyes opened, and she suppressed her anger: Mingzhu really hit Xiaoman? And beat the old minions in the house? ”

Mo Xiaoman had been waiting for a while, and finally waited for the old lady to ask, and immediately filled his eyes with tears, and knelt down pitifully in front of the old lady: "Yes, grandmother, look at these slap marks on my face, they were all beaten by the eldest sister......

As he spoke, Mo Xiaoman began to cry, as if he had been greatly wronged. Aunt Mo Xiaoman's mother and daughter were able to gain a firm foothold in the house, firstly, because they supported the eldest lady and were very attentive before and after the saddle, and secondly, they coaxed the old lady very well.

The old lady used to be the daughter of a big family, very stylish, and later married a poor sour Xiucai surnamed Mo in the middle of the family, Xiucai was not promising, but I didn't expect her son Mo Dingyuan to be very promising, and after going to the battlefield, he became a general all the way, and the lintel was glorious! It can be described as smooth sailing and very satisfying.

However, there is only one thing, it is the biggest heart disease of the old lady in her life - at that time, the family was not good, and she failed to find a satisfactory "good" daughter-in-law for her son, and the mother who disliked Mo Mingzhu was born as a singer and had a humble status, and she has always been very repulsive, so she has no good impression of Mingzhu, and now she sees the distressed well-behaved granddaughter Xiaoman's face red and swollen, and she is distressed.

"It's really the other way around! As the eldest daughter, she beat her sister so ruthlessly. ”

Mo Xiaoman became even more energetic when she heard this, and cried heartbrokenly, "The eldest sister not only beat me, but also beat the servants in my garden and snatched all my jewelry!" I even snatched my grandmother's birthday gift from me, grandmother, she didn't take your old man seriously......"

"Fourth Miss, don't talk about it, the eldest lady is the eldest daughter, you can let some and suffer some losses......" Aunt Liu deliberately added oil and vinegar, "Besides, the daughter wants to be taught by her mother, and the eldest lady's mother died early, and no one teaches her." ”

This means that Mo Mingzhu has a mother, no mother's education, no upbringing, and directly pokes the old lady's most hated place!

"Come on, go get the family law!"

Thinking of Mo Mingzhu's mother-in-law, the old lady doubled her anger, planning to let people take the ring ruler, and reprimand Mo Mingzhu as soon as she arrived.

And yet at this moment, at this very moment-

"Who said I don't have a mother, Aunt Liu, do you want your mother to die, or curse her to die?"

A cold voice came!

Everyone followed the sound and saw no one, and then a woman in a plain skirt came out from the end of the lotus leaf.

"Mo, Mo Mingzhu?"

Not only Aunt Liu, but everyone present was surprised. Shouldn't the distant blurred shadow be a beauty?

It turned out to be Mo Mingzhu's ugly monster.

"Aunt Liu, why don't you answer when I ask you? Do you want your mother to die, or do you want to curse her to death? ”

Aunt Liu was speechless for a while. Mo Mingzhu's own mother died in childbirth when she gave birth to her, so she was called "mother" since she was a child, and her stepmother Gao! Aunt Liu made a stupid mistake! How could she, a concubine with no roots and no background, dare to offend the Gao family, and she was immediately frightened and hurriedly defended.

"I, I, of course I didn't mean that!"

"That's not what you mean, then you mean to blame my mother for not teaching me well?"

Mo Mingzhu's eyes were cold, and she said softly: "Aunt Liu, curse the housewife in public, and blame the eldest daughter for not having a mother's upbringing, this has to be spread, but it is to disgrace our Mo Mansion......"

"This, I ......" Aunt Liu was anxious, knowing that the old lady valued the face of the Mo family the most, raised her eyes, and saw that the old lady was already unhappily sighed, and hurriedly slapped her mouth, "It's my stupid mouth, I said the wrong thing, my mouth is stupid, my mouth is stupid...... Old lady, I was wrong, I said the wrong thing, don't care, ah? ”

The old lady was upset, but compared to Mo Mingzhu, who had always been afraid of herself and not very affectionate to herself, she preferred Aunt Liu and Mo Xiaoman's mother and daughter, and she was about to say it, but she didn't want Mo Mingzhu to speak first-

"Aunt Liu, grandmother is old and shouldn't worry about trivial matters, since you are scolding me, just apologize to me, no need to bother grandmother and her old man."

Mo Mingzhu said it stupidly and simply, making it difficult to figure out whether she was pretending to be garlic or really having a brain dementia, after all, Mo Mingzhu was not very smart in the past.

"I ......" so many people watched, Aunt Liu didn't want to apologize, but if she wanted her to apologize to Mo Mingzhu, an ugly monster who had never looked at her, how could it be!" I ......"

"Grandmother, look, the eldest sister is bullying Aunt Liu again, you can't ignore it......" Mo Xiaoman suddenly interrupted with a cry, hugging the old lady's thighs and crying miserably, her red cheeks deliberately brightened obviously.

As soon as the old lady saw Mo Xiaoman's face, she immediately burst into flames at Mo Mingzhu: "Okay, okay, what a big deal, can you be so excited!" It's late, and you're so arrogant, do you still have me as a grandmother in your eyes! ”

Without waiting for Mo Mingzhu to speak, the old lady continued impatiently: "Sit down, sit down, don't talk about it, it's annoying to listen." ”

"......" This old lady's heart is not ordinary partiality, she openly defends Mo Xiaoman's mother and daughter, and she doesn't even want to look at her eldest daughter from beginning to end.

Since the old lady had talked about this, Mo Mingzhu had to sit down, and as soon as she sat down, she saw the smug faces of Mo Xiaoman and Aunt Liu, and raised her chin proudly and laughed at her.

Laugh, laugh, you'll cry later!

As soon as they sat down, several aunts took turns to greet the old lady with a few words, and then the grandchildren came to serve tea. Of the grandchildren, there are four girls, the third lady died early, and the second Mo Xuelan didn't know what she was busy with and didn't come, and now only Mo Xiaoman and Mo Mingzhu are present.

The tea ceremony for the old lady should have been carried out according to the elders and youngsters, but she didn't want Mo Mingzhu to take the snow lotus tea as soon as she picked it up, and Mo Xiaoman took the lead.

"Grandmother, granddaughter Xiaoman wishes you happiness such as the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan, yes, yes, you want to live a long life and live forever!"

Mo Xiaoman slapped a string of sycophants, and the old lady's previous unhappiness was all gone, and she smiled from ear to ear.

This last one is finally Mo Mingzhu's turn. Everyone knows that Mo Mingzhu doesn't know a few big characters, and he doesn't have any literary talent, and he usually asks the old lady to say goodbye, but he is very afraid of the old lady, and he can't speak clearly. The old lady has always felt that this granddaughter is really unacceptable, and it is the second big stain on her family for decades after the big stain of Mo Mingzhu's mother!

The old lady immediately changed her face and glanced at her coldly. "Well, forget it, you just sit."

As soon as the old lady's words fell, there was a burst of snorting and sneering secretly.

Mo Mingzhu's heart was cold, why is this grandmother so ruthless? Even if this body didn't please her before, it was her granddaughter, and even she didn't respect her.

Mo Mingzhu has a principle of being a man, others can look down on themselves with ignorance and vulgarity, the dog's mouth grows on the dog's body, where can she control it all the time, but what she should do will never be done less because of these mouths, this is her respect for herself! As long as you look up to yourself, there is no one in the world who is qualified and has the ability to make you a lowly person.

Therefore, Mo Mingzhu walked over, picked up the tea, walked steadily towards the old lady, knelt down, and said loudly-

"The eldest granddaughter Mingzhu, I wish my grandmother good health, eternal happiness, 100 years old, and the crane is green. May my Mo family be blessed, stretch for thousands of years, endless generations, leave the history of the family forever, and praise my grandmother's style of governing the family...... Grandmother, please use tea! ”

Mo Mingzhu served snow lotus tea with both hands, generous and neat, without the slightest cowardice and humility, a word, atmospheric, magnificent!

The old lady accompanied the Mo family from the poor countryside to this high-rise mansion and a first-class family, the credit of her husband and children is the greatest achievement of her life, and it is also her greatest wish to let the Mo family for thousands of generations. In comparison, Mo Xiaoman's longevity and longevity are just casual saliva, which is really not standard!

For a moment, everyone was silent, staring in surprise at the ugly girl who had been unknown and illiterate for more than ten years.

Mo Mingzhu, isn't it clear that he can't speak, isn't he illiterate?

This......
