Too high to reach

Chapter 27 The Son-in-Law Arrives at the Door
When the two brothers, Moda and his brother, welcomed Liang You inside...

Mo Ruhai scrutinized him closely with his hooked eyes, his gaze so direct it was almost impolite, but he didn't care.

Hmm, the size is alright.

His looks are just average... not as good as Mo Da's!
His demeanor is a bit too composed, isn't it?
Young people should be full of energy and spirit, why are you acting so old-fashioned?
Looking at his physique, which is a size larger than Mo Da's... he must have practiced martial arts, right?
Once he thought of it, he asked, "Liang You, have you practiced martial arts?"

This is my future father-in-law. Liang You blushed slightly and answered politely, "Uncle, my ancestors were military officers. So all the men in my family have a habit of practicing martial arts. I also studied for a few years, but later I was too busy with my studies, so I stopped following my master and just practiced on my own at home."

Mo Rushan was quite satisfied with the young man and nodded in praise: "Good! A man who excels in both academics and martial arts is a true talent! What are your plans for your studies next?"

"My master said I'm still a bit lacking. But next autumn, I'll let this junior try out."

“Then you and Mo Da are from the same class!” Mo Ruhai said, pointing to his eldest son.

Mo Rushan said, "More experience is beneficial. Once you get rid of fear, you can perform normally, or even exceptionally well. Your uncle here is not afraid of exams. I always exceed expectations!"

Liang You nodded repeatedly, expressing his admiration.

“Your Uncle Hai is smarter than me. He reads a lot of books and can understand them all. It’s just that he’s afraid of exams! He never performs at 70%! Otherwise, he wouldn’t be like this. Da’er is a bit better. Remember, you must be thick-skinned in front of your teacher and classmates! Don’t be afraid of making mistakes, just say them again next time. Only in this way can you be focused during the big exams.”

"Thank you for your guidance, Uncle Xie! I will remember it..."

Mo Ruhai's composure was no match for his elder brother's; seeing him bring up old grievances again, his old face flushed red. He cursed inwardly: "Do you have any self-control? Trying to embarrass me in front of my inexperienced son-in-law who's just entered the family for the first time?"
Mo Da and Liang You had known each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about. They even made plans to go out and meet friends together during the Chinese New Year.

Unable to get a word in edgewise, Mo Fan kept staring at Liang You with unfriendly eyes, feeling that he was unworthy of his sister no matter how he looked at him.

After chatting for a while, Mo Rushan finally said, "Mo Da, take Liang You to meet your mother."

Liang You took his leave, and Mo Da and Mo Fan accompanied him to the Wang family's courtyard.

Mo Wen was in her room, embroidering with a troubled mind. After a while, she realized she had made a mistake and had to undo it... She was furious! Du Juan, without being told, took the initiative to find out what was going on and returned. "Miss, the eldest and second masters accompanied Young Master Liang to Madam's room!"

"Yes, let's go take another look."

Although she didn't say it explicitly, Dujuan had served her since childhood. She knew her young mistress had facilitated this affair and now regretted it.

To be honest, Dujuan was also a little surprised that the girl could do such a thing. However, it was too late for regrets now! If things really fell apart, the impact on the Mo family and on the Fifth Sister would be enormous…

……

Seeing the two walking and talking, completely ignoring him, Mo Fan suddenly blurted out stupidly, "Liang You, my fifth sister is a good girl... you can't bully her. If you dare to wrong her, we won't forgive you!"

These words surprised both Mo Da and Liang You.

Liang You's ears turned red, and he quickly replied, "Don't worry, Second Brother, I won't bully her!"

Mo Da, known for his aloof and strict manner, rolled his eyes inwardly upon hearing this! He almost said: "Mo Fan, you're good for nothing, so even if Liang You bullies Mo Yi, what can you do about it?"

And then there's Liang You, that idiot, who calls me "Second Brother" so fluently, why is he so nervous?
Both of them are sick!
Mo Qing came back after being sent away, but since she was young, it didn't bother her.

Upon seeing the three enter, Madam Wang greeted them with a radiant smile.

Mo Yi stood up, her dark eyes involuntarily glancing at Liang You, without the shyness that a typical girl would show when first meeting her fiancé.

Liang You, however, kept his eyes fixed on Wang Shi without glancing to the side, and respectfully bowed, saying, "Greetings, Aunt Mo!"

"Hey! Good child, sit down! Sit down!"

Liang You thanked them, but did not sit down. He bowed again to the Mo sisters without daring to look up.

Mo Qing found it amusing and giggled.

Liang You's ears turned red.

"Mo Yi! Come and greet your brother Liang You!" "Brother Liang You!" Mo Yi curtsied.

Liang You bowed again, this time even more nervous, his eyes blinking and his face turning red.

Mo Qing chimed in her cheerful voice, "Brother Liang You!"

"Yes!" Liang You looked very serious and didn't even look at Mo Qing directly, only responding politely.

Madam Wang greeted them, "Don't be so polite, please sit down... How is your mother?"

"My mother is doing well. She asked the younger generation to send her greetings to you and said she'd like to see you during the New Year."

"Yes! We've arranged to meet at Aunt Mo Yi's house for Chinese New Year!"

Liang You sat down and finally looked at Mo Yi properly, saying gently, "It's been a while since I've seen you, little sister Yi."

“Yes.” Mo Yi nodded: “I have met Xin a few times.” Liang Xin is Liang You’s younger sister. He is the eldest son of his parents, with two younger brothers and one younger sister.

Actually, Mo Yi was also a little confused; she couldn't even remember the last time she had seen Liang You. Thinking of her dream last night, she couldn't help but smile shyly.

The beautiful girl before him was about to become his wife. Liang You placed his hands on his knees, gripping the hem of his clothes tightly. He felt a tingling sensation in his back, his blood rushing through his body, and a sense of pleasure emanating from within.

Mo Da and Mo Fan coughed simultaneously, expressing their dissatisfaction: You've been staring at each other for too long!
Wang glanced at the two of them. "Why are you coughing for no reason?" she asked. "Is school on holiday?"

"They're already on holiday."

"Moda just got back two days ago. You two should chat more when you have time and share your experiences."

Liang You said, "I've already made plans with my older brother to get together with our classmates during the Lunar New Year. When the younger generation visits our teacher, I'd also like to invite my older brother to come along!"

Mo Da thought to himself: Hmm, he calls me "Big Brother" quite often. I only realized today that this guy is a bit shameless; he used to call me Brother Mo!
Mo Yi understood, and wanted to laugh again.

"And Mo Fan, learn more from your two older brothers!" Madam Wang scolded Mo Fan. When she was happy, she would ramble on and on, and it was hard to tell what she was going to say.

Mo Da immediately realized what was happening, raising an eyebrow and giving her mother a look that seemed to signal her to stop. Mo Fan, however, paid no heed…

Only Liang You, with his hands on his knees, back straight, listened attentively and respectfully to Wang Shi's words, even nodding slightly in agreement...

This is hilarious! Moy finally laughed.

Liang You, who was smuggling glasses, happened to see this and smiled.

Mo Fan saw this and was very dissatisfied with Mo Yi: You're so spineless! Why are you smiling at him?! If you give him a nice face now, he won't take you seriously in the future.

So he coughed twice more to remind Mo Yi.

Wang thought Mo Fan was causing her trouble and glared at him.

In fact, Mo Yi was already unfolding her grand plan at this moment... Judging from Liang You's appearance, he must be easy to get along with. He would support whatever she wanted to do, and might even help her!

My mother said my older sister is getting married in the fall, so I guess it'll be around the Lunar New Year. With a year to go, this batch of work should be almost finished, right?

She had already planned it out. If things went smoothly with this business, she wanted to open another shop, specializing in selling purses, school bags, and miscellaneous bags... This time, her father brought her a bag back, which sparked her inspiration!

Having an idea, she still had to figure out how to do it... She needed people, money, and resources! Her mind was racing, but her eyes were fixed intently on Liang You.

Liang You looked back at her, feeling like a hundred rabbits were happily hopping around in his heart.

For the first time in my life, I experienced this joy and sweetness...
