The Rebirth of the First Daughter: The Crown Prince

Chapter 204 The Heart of Defense is Indispensable (2)

Mo Xi looked at the old man in front of him, his face was covered with wrinkles, his temples were stained with hoarfrost, his eyes were not like those of an old man, they were sharper than those of a middle-aged man with deep experience, as if Can read people's hearts.

Could it be that all the performances of grandma in front of her during this period of time are fake?
Mo Xi was suspicious because of Wang's probing words.It's not that she is too suspicious, it's just that she was framed by others a lot in her previous life, so she has to be more on guard.

Seeing the change in Mo Xi's face, Wang thought about it, guessed one or two, and immediately softened, stretched out his hand, and patted the back of Mo Xi's hand as a comfort: "Don't worry too much, I didn't want to ask about you. What's the matter, I just thought, if that person is really the person you like in your heart, then you will be matched, and it will become a good thing."

Hearing this, Mo Xi's tense face eased a little, but she didn't tell the truth to Wang after all: "To tell the truth to grandma, that clothes really didn't belong to Brother Xiao, it's just that Xi'er fell into the water that day and went ashore. Afterwards, I realized that my clothes were disheveled. Coincidentally, a sedan chair passed by. Seeing Xi'er's distressed appearance, it was really pitiful. Therefore, I threw a piece of clothes over. The man replied, that's why Xi'er put away her clothes, thinking that if she sees her benefactor one day, she will repay her and return the clothes to that person."

Mo Xi said with a smile, her eyes were calm, from the surface, it didn't look like she was lying.

After hearing this, Mrs. Wang, even though she was skeptical, didn't say much, she just sighed: "That's all, I thought—"

Seeing this, Mo Xi stretched out her hand, took Wang Shi's arm, and said coquettishly: "Grandmother, you really think too much. How can there be such a coincidence in this world? Besides, Xi'er stays in the mansion all day, so why not What other men would you know?"

"So, are you blaming grandma for being strict?" Wang gave Mo Xi a sideways look, pretending to be angry, but Mo Xi dismissed it with a laugh.

The grandfather and grandson played together for a while, and Mo Xi served Wang's breakfast again before leaving.

After Mo Xi left, Nanny Zhu walked up to Mrs. Wang and said, "Old Ancestor, do you think that is really what Miss Seven said?"

"Half-truth, half-false." Wang paused for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "Besides whether it's true or not, in Qi girl's heart, maybe there really is no one else."

"The ancestor brought up this matter so anxiously today, but what did the uncle say because he came to find you a few days ago?"

If someone else said this, Mrs. Wang would definitely suspect that he had ulterior motives. However, when Nanny Zhu said it, Mrs. Wang just gave her a sideways glance as a warning to let her understand. If this is the case, don't ask more questions in the future But on the lips, she still answered Zhu Nanny's question.

"That day, Shu'er came to look for me. He meant to marry Xi'er into the Wang family."

Hearing this, Nanny Zhu was startled: "Wang's family?" Isn't that the ancestor's natal family?She remembered that there is no one in the Wang family who is about the same age as the girl now!

Mrs. Wang glanced at Madam Zhu, knowing that she didn't understand, and immediately said: "Shu'er, I want Xi'er to marry my eldest nephew's second son."

"You mean the current second young master of our family? But, isn't the second young master a fool? Besides, the second young master is already in his thirties. Wouldn't it be a waste for the seventh girl to marry him? Why did the uncle do this?" Nanny Zhu couldn't hide her surprise.

Hearing this, Mrs. Wang snorted coldly: "Why is it like this? Isn't my good daughters-in-law picking it up in the middle?"

Hearing this, Nanny Zhu didn't understand even more. As far as she knew, the only one who didn't like Mo Xi in this mansion was the Bai family.As for the eldest lady, she has never had any interaction with Mo Xi, so how could she harm Mo Xi like this?
"Why is that?" Nanny Zhu asked.

"Yujin, if you don't understand, it's because there are some things you don't know. If you know, you will know."

Hearing this, Nanny Zhu looked at Wang Shi, waiting for Wang Shi to explain her doubts.

"My eldest daughter-in-law doesn't have any enmity with Qiyatou, but she is very close to Princess Jing. Now, Princess Jing has a crush on Jiuyatou and doesn't like Qiyatou, but Prince Shengxiao likes Qiyatou. This matter is like this It has been dragging on for a long time, and it is reckoned that there will be a rift between the two mothers and sons. Therefore, I guess, there must be some people who gave the trick to Princess Jing, let Princess Jing take care of my eldest daughter-in-law, and then Through forgiveness, put pressure on me so that I can't resist."

As Wang said, although she never said who the "some people" were referring to, Nanny Zhu could also guess.

"In these years, this family, on the surface, I am still the head of the family, but the real power is no longer in my hands. I am afraid that if things go on like this, what will happen to Qi Yatou, so today, I That's why you're so anxious."

Hearing this, Nanny Zhu sighed a little, looking at the pale-haired old man in front of her, not knowing what to say.Today, she was thinking about Seventh Miss so much, but Seventh Miss was still a little wary of her ancestors. I don't know how the old man in front of me felt at that time!

Nanny Zhu lowered her brows, thought for a moment, and suggested, "Old Ancestor, why don't the slaves go and reveal this to Miss Seven, so that she can be more prepared?"

Hearing this, Wang glanced at Nanny Zhu, "I thought about what you said, but if Shu'er knew about it, I'm afraid he would move faster. On that day, Shu'er I suggested this matter, but I rejected it on the spot. Thinking about it, I won’t do anything in the past few days, I’m afraid I will take action after the New Year.”

"At that time, the ancestors will refuse again."

"Yujin, it's easy to say, but it's not that easy to do. I'm old, and I can't control many things in this family. The juniors have their own ideas. Besides, there is Bai's family. Guan, after all, she is Qiyatou's mother in name, if she obstinately agrees, I can't."

"From this point of view, Miss Seven's marriage should be decided early, so as not to delay her life."

"That's exactly what worries me!"

……

On the way back, Luyao was walking beside Mo Xi, thinking about today's events, she always felt a little strange, so she asked Mo Xi, "Miss, what do you mean by what the ancestor said today?"

Mo Xi looked up at the white snow on the ground, her eyes were a little dazed, and after a while, she replied, "I don't know either."

"Then girl, are you telling the truth to your ancestor?"

Hearing this, Mo Xi tilted her head and glanced at Luyao. Her eyes were dark and bottomless. Luyao was most afraid of Mo Xi's eyes. His deep gaze always made people feel a little intimidated. At the moment, I was taken aback.

For a long time, Mo Xi didn't do anything, but said quietly: "Luyao, you know that you must be on guard against others. Even if that person is your closest relative, you can't completely trust that person."

Just because, in this world, I don't know how many people died under the sharp knife of someone close to them...
