Dressed as a middle-aged mistress, I want to lie down every day

Mo Chenxi invited the Zhao family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to sit down. She was surprised that so many things had happened recently, but the Zhao family had not shown up.

Madam Zhao said, "My uncle's family had a wedding a while ago, so my mother-in-law and I went out of town. When I came back and heard so many things, I was shocked. Do you really have chest pain?"

Mo Chenxi said, "How can this be fake? If I hadn't taken care of everything for over a year, I would have moved out now because I can't stand the noise and need to rest."

Old Mrs. Zhao cried out, "I even told my daughter-in-law that it was because...your mother-in-law heard that a clan member had come to the He family's ancestral home, and she was wondering if it was an unlucky relative."

She said in great embarrassment, "I thought you were almost well, I didn't expect this to happen. If I had known, we would have come back sooner."

Mo Chenxi smiled and said, "It's okay, look at me, I'm still alive."

Mrs. Zhao burst into tears and choked up, saying, "It's hard for you."

Turning to his daughter-in-law, he said, "Tomorrow you can pack up and come accompany Jingyi's mother. You don't need to take care of the house."

Mrs. Zhao nodded quickly, "I'll come to accompany my sister. I can't do anything, but I can just talk."

Mo Chenxi nodded with a smile.

She envied the relationship between Mrs. Zhao and her mother-in-law. The two of them were like real mother and daughter, going out together and visiting relatives together.

Mrs. Zhao once told her that at her age, she should be more open-minded. Since she had a concubine to serve her husband at home, she should just be filial to her mother-in-law.

Mo Chenxi said, "I just wanted to tell you something. Jingyi's father had a stroke, and I'm not in good health to take care of him. The children have all gone back. I want Jingyi to marry him sooner and consummate the marriage a year later."

Old Mrs. Zhao was surprised. "Oh! Is Mr. He seriously ill?"

Mo Chenxi shook his head and said, "It's not serious, it's just that the family is in chaos. She's already fifteen, and I wanted to keep her for another year so that she can get married sooner, which would also bring good luck to his father."

Mrs. Zhao was eager to say, "It's just that your Jingyi is wronged."

Today, the Mo family is thriving, and Mrs. Mo has been conferred the title of Fifth Rank Lady of Filial Piety. The Zhao family is worried that the He family will look down on the Zhao family.

Mo Chenxi thought that since Jingyi was staying at the He family to fulfill her filial duty, it would be better for her to get married early to prevent Old Lady Jiang from having any bad intentions again.

Mrs. Zhao said in embarrassment: "I have to prepare for the wedding at home and can't come to accompany you."

"It's okay, my sister-in-law will come over."

In fact, the Mo family didn’t know that He Wenyan had suffered a stroke. His parents and brothers returned to the ancestral home, and someone was getting married there.

As soon as Old Mrs. Zhao and the others left, Mo Yuanji and his wife came over.

Old Mrs. Mo was filled with joy, and Mo Yuanji was surprised.

"What happened? I heard about it right after I got back."

Mo Chenxi first said that He Wenyan was demoted and Old Lady Jiang was stripped of her imperial status. He Wenyan was so angry that he suffered a stroke and hemiplegia.

Mo Yuanji and his wife were surprised. Mo Yuanji asked, "You didn't stay to take care of me?"

Mrs. Mo glared at her husband and asked, "Hasn't our daughter suffered enough?"

The two elders of the Mo family did not know the severity of Mo Chenxi's illness. They only knew that his illness was previously serious but he had recovered a lot in the past year.

When she moved out of the He family, she deliberately told her parents that she had chest pain. Her father even blamed her for saying that about herself, thinking it was unlucky.

So Mo Yuanji and his wife did not know that their daughter really had chest pain. When he heard about it, the first thing he asked his daughter was why she didn't stay to take care of her.

She doesn't blame her father, which shows that her father is sensible, kind-hearted, and normal. As a wife, she must take care of her seriously ill husband.

Mo Chenxi said, "There's something I haven't told my parents. I really have chest pain, and it's not an excuse to move out. I want to live a quiet life for a few years."

She said that she didn't want her father to feel guilty about He Wenyan, so she made up the lie about having a heart disease to avoid him.

Mo Yuanji and his wife were stunned.

"I had been taking Doctor Zhang's medicine. After Doctor An came, I took his prescription again and gradually got better. Last time, I fainted at the He family. Doctor Zhang said that if it happens again, even gods can't save me."

Mrs. Mo's lips trembled. "My daughter, why didn't you tell me earlier? Otherwise, I won't let you go back to the He family no matter what."

Mo Yuanji felt sad and tears welled up in his eyes.

Even though the daughter was in such a state, she still tried every means to help her parents make money. The daughter was so angry with the He family that she felt sorry for her parents, so she came back to repay their kindness.

What did he say just now? Asking why his daughter didn't stay to take care of her son-in-law?

Mo Yuanji choked up as he spoke, "I'm sorry, Dad shouldn't have said anything."

Mo Chenxi said, "I don't blame Dad. He thinks and acts this way. When he meets a normal family, I think he is reasonable. The He family has been crooked since Jingyi's grandmother. I am like this. Doctor Zhang said I need to rest, and Jingyi's father is still looking forward to my return."

This time it was Mo Yuanji who opened his mouth and cursed: "Beast! His family is human, but my daughter is not a human?"

Old Madam Mo was even more furious, saying, "I really... regret trying to persuade you that time. I should have divorced him! He's about to risk his life, and you still want me to serve him? Pah! His mother is fine, she hasn't broken any arms or legs, so why don't you let her serve him?"

Mo Yuanji scolded, "Keep your voice down."

Old Madam Mo fell silent, took a deep breath, and lowered her voice, "I won't be loud anymore. My daughter, you don't have to worry about anything. I'll let Dazhi's wife move in and take care of Shanluo's wife. You just take care of her. This disease can be cured. I'm not lying to you."

As I spoke, tears began to flow uncontrollably.

How can you take good care of it? I have never heard of anyone living a long life with chest pain. Not to mention living a long life, most people will die after lying sick for a few years.

Mo Yuanji turned his head away and let the tears flow out.

Mo Chenxi comforted her, "My condition isn't serious. Doctor An said I can recover. I helped Mr. Nie's sister last time, and Mrs. Wang has always felt guilty about letting my body help. This time, it was because she beat Jingyi's grandmother and demoted Jingyi's father, which caused Jingyi's father to have a stroke. That's why the Empress Dowager named me Madam Xiaojie to avoid people saying that my mother-in-law is sick and my husband is sick, but I didn't go back."

Mo Yuanji felt even worse. Everyone knew that his daughter was seriously ill. Wang Dongjia even went to ask the Queen Mother to help his daughter, but he asked his daughter why she didn't stay to take care of her.

"My daughter, don't hide anything from your parents in the future. I'm not confused, I'm protecting you. Your mother gave birth to you, I'm happy, your grandmother is happy too. I've read your fortune, and I know you'll have many children and grandchildren. You won't..."

He couldn't continue, his face was covered with tears.

It was the first time that Mrs. Mo saw her husband crying like this, but she stopped crying and took out her handkerchief to wipe her husband's tears.

"It'll be fine. Isn't Doctor An a miracle doctor? My daughter will get better. The fortune teller said she can live to be ninety-nine, and that our whole family will enjoy her happiness."

As she spoke, she wiped her husband's tears, but she herself burst into tears.

Thinking about his daughter still sitting next to him, he wiped his face with a handkerchief and said firmly: "Let Xinrong's wife come over too. She is thoughtful and can write poetry. You also loved writing poetry before you got married. You two can come together."

Mo Yuanji immediately said, "God Fei, I'll buy someone who can play the flute. Listening to music is better than writing poetry."

Mrs. Mo smiled and said, "Yes, yes, listen to the music."

Mo Chenxi looked at her parents with tears and smiles, feeling warm in her heart.

I got the fatherly love that I didn’t have in my previous life here.
