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

Mo Chenxi went to the Cao family and told them about the Qiu family.

Old Mrs. Cao and her daughter-in-law were speechless, but they would not cancel the engagement because of this.

"I'm also here because Third Madam Qiu is open and honest. Since Third Madam Qiu has come to ask you to speak, I'll also speak plainly. If my grandson-in-law turns out to be like his father, my Cao family won't be able to talk to him so easily.

"There are good ways to live, and bad ways to live. I'm an old woman with a bad temper. Today, in front of my daughter-in-law, I also said that I have made her angry many times. Who doesn't have bumps and bruises in life? However, I have never stuffed anyone into my son's house. If my son dares to make a mess outside, I will break his legs first without my in-laws having to do anything!"

Mo Chenxi flattered, "I decided to marry into the Cao family because I think they have a good family tradition. My mother always said that people with great power don't need to be afraid, but they should be reasonable. She said that Grandmother Cao was like that, she was sensible and sensible, and she wasn't afraid of anyone complaining about her. My mother also said that who could be like Grandmother Cao, who didn't only love her grandson and ignore her granddaughter? Based on this point, no one can say for sure."

Old Mrs. Cao felt relieved after hearing this. In addition to favoring Yue'e the most, it was also because she lost her mother when she was young. She treated the granddaughter born to her concubine's daughter-in-law the same as her grandson, and never said that she treated her coldly just because she was a girl.

Mrs. Cao was convinced by her mother-in-law's point. When her daughter got engaged, her mother-in-law still asked her to give more dowry so that her grandson could inherit the family property, but her granddaughter could not, so she should give more dowry.

It's just a little less than Yue'e. My mother-in-law said that even if they were both born by you, the eldest daughter should have more than her younger sister. It's the same in every family.

Mo Chenxi left the Cao family, thinking that she hadn't been back to her parents' home for a long time and wanted to go back to visit.

As soon as I reached the door, I saw my mother and Zhou coming out.

When Mrs. Mo saw her daughter, she exclaimed, "Did you hear that Mr. Wang's son and daughter-in-law are here? Your sister-in-law and I were just about to go over and take a look."

Mo Chenxi said, "I don't know. I just arrived in the city. Then I'll go with my mother. Let's go buy some gifts first. It's just right for my mother to help me choose."

The Wang and Mo families’ help was not only financial. When their sons and daughters-in-law came, they would give them some decent gifts.

He went directly to the most upscale jewelry store in Beijing. Mo Chenxi had gone there once just to look but didn't dare to buy anything. Now he dares to spend a lot of money on it. It hasn't been long since then, and things have changed so fast.

Old Madam Mo said that all of Mr. Wang's sons practiced martial arts, so instead of buying pens and ink, she bought three swords. If you don't know much, just buy the expensive ones.

Mrs. Wang had five children. Two daughters, Wang Yuzhen and Wang Yuxiang, lived in the capital, and three sons stayed in Guanzhong.

The eldest son of the Wang family is married but has no children. The second son is sixteen years old, and the third son is eleven years old.

Old Mrs. Mo had previously said privately that the Wang Dongjia couple were very kind-hearted, so they left their sons in Guanzhong without worrying that they would be tempted into learning bad things.

When they arrived at Wang's house, they knocked on the door and went in. The servants were all in high spirits and greeted them immediately when they saw them.

As soon as you enter the second door, you can hear laughter and joy.

When Xiangxiang saw Old Madam Mo, she got off the swing and ran over to hug her thighs, "Grandma Mo, why don't you come to see me?"

Old Madam Mo happily picked her up and said, face to face, "Grandma Mo is making something delicious for Xiangxiang. I'll give it to Xiangxiang later."

Mrs. Wang came over quickly and said, "Auntie, put her down quickly. You're still holding her even though she's grown up."

Mrs. Mo didn't let go. "It's okay. I can hold her. Even if she was five years old, I can hold her. How old is she now?"

Xiangxiang hugged Mrs. Mo's neck and wrinkled her nose at her mother.

Mrs. Wang smiled and said to Mo Chenxi, "Xiangxiang has finally found a backer. Whenever I scold her, she cries and wants to go home, saying that the Mo family is her home."

Everyone in the yard was standing there, waiting for them to come over.

Mrs. Wang led them to sit in the pavilion. A young couple came forward and Mrs. Wang introduced them: "This is my eldest son Wang Lifeng and my daughter-in-law Qin."

Wang Lifeng looks very much like his father, a younger version of Wang Jingye. Qin is tall and has the heroic air of Wang Huilan.

The second son, Wang Lichuan, was rather strange. He dressed like a Taoist priest and had his hair in a bun, but his expression was not serious.

Then came the third son, who looked a bit serious and solemn.

The gifts were given and all were thanked.

Mrs. Wang said, "Go back to your room. I want to talk to your grandma."

The young man seemed to have left in a respectful manner. Old Madam Mo said enviously, "How handsome! You're so lucky to have three sons. It'll be a lively family in the future. But why is your second son dressed like that? Don't even think about becoming a Taoist priest."

Mrs. Wang's expression changed immediately, and she gritted her teeth and said, "He just wants to be a Taoist priest, and he wants to be a Taoist priest's son-in-law!"

Old Madam Mo was startled, and Mo Chenxi was also startled. She asked, "Aren't Taoist priests not allowed to get married?"

Mrs. Wang replied, "There's one possibility. Lichuan has a good friend whose grandfather was a deputy commander of Guanzhong, a fourth-rank official. The Wang family was a military family, and their descendants rarely interacted with families of scholars. The Feng family also has a wife and daughter, but only one daughter. After a few visits, Taoist Feng took a fancy to Lichuan, and he wanted to be their son-in-law. He also said that the Wang family had many sons, so he might as well give one away. Auntie, don't you think I'm angry?"

Mrs. Mo listened with her mouth wide open, thinking, "He's just like his father, he likes to run around. Isn't that what Taoist priests do, they don't stay home and wander around."

"Arrange a marriage for him in Beijing so that the Taoist priest will give up."

Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth again and said, "That Taoist Feng has brought his daughter with him. I think he's a crazy Taoist! Is there anyone who would be so eager to chase after his son-in-law?"

After saying that, she spat on the ground, "Who is his son-in-law? I told Li Chuan that if he becomes the son-in-law of the Feng family, I will hang myself in front of him!"

Mrs. Mo's expression was astonishing. She had never heard of such a strange story before. She asked, "Do the Taoist priest and his daughter live in your house?"

"We live at the home of Minister Wei of the Ministry of Works. One of Minister Wei's daughters-in-law is the cousin of Taoist Feng's wife, and the whole family lives there. Tomorrow the Wei family will invite us over for a dinner. I wish I could wear a nun's hat and tell them that if they want my son to be their son-in-law, then I'll become a nun!"

Old Madam Mo said, "That won't do. We need to talk things over nicely. Even if he's a relative of the Shangshu family, you can't force him. You can talk to the Empress Dowager and ask her to find a marriage for your son. The Feng family will just sit there and watch."

Mrs. Wang was furious again. "My Lichuan was so eager to get him a wife that he followed his father's example and went out to sea! What sin have I committed to give birth to this troublesome child?"

Mo Chenxi listened on the side. Every family has problems. Mrs. Qiu had just finished complaining about her third master, and the Wang family had another rebellious son who became a Taoist priest.

It seems that the two sons of the He family are well-behaved and don't give their parents much worry.

Mrs. Wang said to Mo Chenxi, "Mrs. Mo, please help me think of a way to wake my son up. I think that Taoist priest may have cast a curse on him. He was fine before I left."

Mo Chenxi was frightened. She couldn't cast spells, and all the witches were fake.
