Chapter 26: Sincerity
After the Fuguo prince and his wife left, Mo Junyong planned to go out to the Wenhui that he often went to, Mo Xinlan walked a few steps quickly and blocked in front of Mo Junyong, "Brother! ”
Mo Junyong was dressed in a clear Confucian shirt, with a waist and wide sleeves, a square Confucian scarf on his head, and his posture was as tall as a pine and cypress, and he looked at Mo Xinlan's dark and deep and somewhat faintly sad eyes, and asked, "What's the matter with you?" ”
He was her brother-in-law, the brother of her mother's brother.
Originally, they should be the closest people in the world, because of the birth mother Zhou's birth Mo Xinlan died in childbirth, Mo Junyong always complained a little about her, plus he didn't listen to what was going on, followed the way of sage governance, adhered to the great defense of men and women, and regarded himself as a strict brother to his sisters-in-law.
Mo Xinlan has always been raised in her grandfather's mansion, close to her grandmother and aunts, and she is pampered, and her brother is 'indifferent' to her, and she is unwilling to pay attention to him, so the relationship between their brother and sister is not close.
"What do you think about the ninth sister's distress?"
"It's just an accident."
“…… What if it wasn't an accident? ”
Mo Xinlan's eyes flashed with a little worry, and she said softly: "Mother won't spare the mastermind behind the scenes, she loves the ninth sister very much." ”
"The clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbidity are self-turbid, since they haven't done it, let her check."
Mo Junyong was calm, and the handsome face of mutton fat and white jade was already impatient, "Because my uncle has delayed a little effort, it will be even more late if I don't leave, this matter ...... I'll talk about it when I get back from the conference. ”
"Brother." Mo Xinlan grabbed Mo Junyong's sleeve and bit her lip, Mo Junyong didn't care, she was extremely uncomfortable, and said angrily: "Wenhui, Wenhui, you know Wenhui, Wenhui is more important than anything else?" The classmates and friends you've made, they're ...... How can they help you? It's good not to fall into the ground, they are simply a bunch of incompetent people who can only talk about empty words. ”
"Mo Xinlan!" Mo Junyong's face changed slightly, "Treat your friends with sincerity, how can you insult my best friend?" Besides, I am like-minded with them, and my generation of scholars only wants to report to the empire, refresh the rule of officials, severely punish traitors, and return the clear sky to the people of the empire, and die without regret for the way of the sages, if you think they are incompetent, I have nothing to say to you. ”
Mo Xinlan's eyes were slightly red, tears were overflowing, and the tip of her nose was slightly red, as if she was full of worries and couldn't speak, and her wireless grievances couldn't be expressed.
"You go back to rest first, and in the future, you don't go to your grandfather's house, and your uncle and aunt always come to Mo Mansion to make decisions for you and your aunt, which is not a good thing."
“…… Brother knows? ”
Mo Xinlan looked at Mo Junyong in surprise, "My brother is estranged from my uncle, do you not want them to interfere too much in our family's affairs?" ”
"I will respect and filial piety to my grandfather, but I dare not agree with my uncle's approach."
Although Fu Guogong tried his best to train Mo Junyong and strictly selected famous teachers for him, Mo Junyong was very talented in reading, and he was very unaccustomed to the domineering practices of hereditary nobles after becoming reasonable.
Besides, he is only the grandson of the Duke of Fuguo...... Fu Guogong attaches more importance to his grandson, but most of his grandsons are not angry, far less than he is good at reading, so that his cousins are always scolded by Fu Guogong, so his relationship with his cousins is not close.
Mo Junyong broke Mo Xinlan and pulled her fingers, "My aunt has been quite difficult in the capital all these years, treating you and my brother and sister as if they were my own children, I won't stop you from respecting her, but I don't want to see you forget your roots and live up to your aunt." ”
He always called Aunt Zhou his aunt, as if Aunt Zhou was only taking care of his aunt who raised him in the Mo family, not Mo Guanjie's concubine.
For Jiang, she is replaced, when Jiang entered the door, he was four years old, and he had already remembered, his biological mother died in childbirth and early, and his stepmother entered the door, which has always been his most painful memory.
If it weren't for Aunt Zhou's careful comfort and care for him, he wouldn't have it today.
"What did my aunt say to my brother?"
Mo Xinlan asked behind him, "Brother, aunt...... I'm not saying that she's bad, or that I'm not filial to her, I just want you and your grandfather's family to be better......"
Mo Junyong didn't look back, and a fluttering voice came, "Aunt didn't say a word about you." ”
This sentence made Mo Xinlan have no face to catch up again, Mo Junyong was most disgusted by the villain who was telling right and wrong behind her back, the more she said, the more Mo Junyong would alienate herself.
Mo Xinlan looked up at the blue sky, the white clouds slowly drifted away from her eyes, her hand stretched out, clenched, clenched, stretched out, why was it so difficult to grab something?
Aunt...... She didn't want to think too badly of her aunt, that was also her aunt who had always raised her, but her aunt would inevitably compete with the Jiang family for favor, and she didn't want or dare to get involved.
"She also has a biological daughter, even if the Mo family is not good, she will try her best to arrange a good arrangement for the eighth sister, but pity us...... Motherless child...... Why doesn't my brother understand, if my grandfather is ruined by the Emperor, we will become rootless duckweed, if my brother doesn't forget his aunt, can I forget my grandfather's cultivation of you. ”
"Second sister."
Ah Jiu walked lightly from the Hanging Flower Moon Gate on the side, and saw Mo Xinlan standing in a daze with hidden sadness, and stepped forward and asked, "What?" Who bullied the second sister? ”
"It's fine."
Mo Xinlan hurriedly wiped the moisture from the corners of her eyes, and said lightly: "The wind is confused." Where did the ninth sister go? ”
"I went to the stables and had a look." Ah Jiu said frankly: "My mother handed over the matter of the thorough investigation of the startled horse, the carriage had an accident when I was out, and I wanted to personally check whether it was an accident." ”
"What does the ninth sister see? Was it an accident? ”
"There is insufficient evidence to make inferences."
Ah Jiu winked mischievously, "When there is a result, I will inform the second sister." If it's an accident, I think it's fine. ”
"Why?"
"Because my family won't use that horse-drawn cart anymore after my accident, and if it was my mother, I would never remember my father's advice as I do now."
Mo Xinlan's heart was full of sour envy, and she was also frightened, "The ninth sister is very filial to her mother. ”
"Mother is better for me."
A hint of embarrassment flashed in Ah Jiu's eyes, and he shook Mo Xinlan's wrist, "Second sister, don't be careful, after getting along for a long time, my mother will be very good to my second sister." ”
"I know that my mother has always been virtuous."
It's just that she won't be treated as her own, it's far better to be intimate with Mo Yunyi, no matter how hard Mo Xinlan tries, the estrangement between her and the Jiang family can't be eliminated.
Jiang is still a stepmother that everyone praises?
When he came to the fork in the road, Ah Jiu asked, "Where is the second sister going?" ”
She's going to see Jiang.
Mo Xinlan said: "I went back to the room to practice calligraphy, and my brother gave me a copy of Yan Zhenqing's calligraphy." ”
"The third brother is so good to the second sister." Ah Jiu wanted to separate from Mo Xinlan directly, but after turning around, he turned back again, "Second sister......"
"Something is wrong with the ninth sister?"
I saw Ah Jiu hesitate for a while, and raised his clear eyes, "I hope that the second sister can carefully consider what I said to the prince of Fuguo, the prince of Fuguo has interfered in his father's family affairs several times, and my father will be patient with the old love for the time being, but sooner or later, the old love will be exhausted, I heard...... In the past, my father was often taught a lesson by the brothers of the Fuguo Gongshizi, my father had been an official for many years, and he was no longer a country boy, he had his own political opinions, factional positions, and even if his grandfather was still alive, he couldn't interfere with him too much. If Fu Guogong loves the second sister and the third brother, it is best to respect the father first, and always treat the father with a respectful or domineering attitude, which is definitely not a long-term way for relatives to get along. ”
"Thank you, Sister Nine, for reminding me."
"The second sister is sensible and intelligent, so she doesn't need me to say more." Ah Jiufu said: "I hope that the second sister will not blame me for being arrogant." ”
"Nine sisters...... Why did you remind me? ”
Mo Xinlan was moved, but also a little puzzled, Mo Yunyi is not an eventful person, and today's words are not like her style.
"In fact, I also have selfish intentions, I hope that my father and mother can grow old and stay together for life, and the Mo family will be rich and prosperous, and become a famous family in the empire. My mother will not replace the position of the second sister's biological mother, please rest assured that the second sister will not be able to do so. I thought that only when the living were happy could they reassure their deceased loved ones. Seeing the second sister's conduct, she should also be a gentle and virtuous person, but unfortunately she has a deep relationship with her father, which is not anyone's fault, she can only blame the creation of people. The second sister will know in the future that when her father and brothers were studying, her eyes were brighter than the stars, and her father, who was obsessed with the subset of scriptures and histories, was very ...... Very good, if he is not disturbed by trivial matters and concentrates on teaching, the day when the world will be full of peach and plum will not be too far away, maybe he can still go down in history, and secretly tell the second sister that his father is compiling the general examination, once the book is completed, it will be a work of hand-me-down. ”
On the contrary, if the Mo family's back house is fighting, Mo Guanjie definitely has no intention of writing a book.
Mo Xinlan smiled bitterly, "It's still the ninth sister who understands her father." ”
"In the future, if my father stays in the capital, my father will also love my second sister very much."
She can't compare to Ah Jiu, and she can't make up for the difference of ten years.

"Master."
"What?"
Aunt Zhou was wearing a silver-red robe next to the soft collapse, disgusted to build the bonsai in front of her, although she trimmed the bonsai, she could always think of Mo Yuyi's aggressiveness.
"Happy event."
Mother Li lowered her voice and said, "I heard that Jiang Cifu was beaten with a court rod and was imprisoned. ”
"Sss
Aunt Zhou didn't pay attention to cutting off her fingernails, the scissors cut her fingers, she didn't care about the bleeding wound, her eyes widened and asked, "Is this serious?" ”
"It's spread all over the capital, and my wife asked someone to send a letter to her mother's family, and the little guy who sent the letter was sent by me."
"Okay, great."
Aunt Zhou allowed the blood to drop from her fingers, and the blood stuck to her teeth, adding a bit of charm to her soft and graceful face, "Since Miss Nine wants to check, let her check, and I can't be implicated in this matter, in case I find out about Brother Yong'er, see if Mrs. Jiang can still fool the world with a virtuous and generous appearance, I want to learn the good upbringing of the Jiang family." ”
Calling Mother Li to her side, Aunt Zhou whispered a few words, and Mother Li nodded again and again, "Don't worry." ”
