Chapter 243 Meddling in Mo Yun's Matter (3)

Pavilions, terraces and pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, fragrant verandahs, bluestone paths, and white columns made of marble are shining faintly under the refraction of the sun, and the stone steps paved with white marble dazzle the eyes.After all, it is the big room, where the appearance of the Mo family is everywhere, which is much more luxurious than other rooms.

The carved windows like the sea of ​​clouds, the door made of red paint, and the door is inlaid with glass. It is said that this is something that came from overseas, and it was bought by Mo Shuyuan at a high price. There are here, but there is not even the ancestor's place.

Pass through the flower corridor, turn a corner, and arrive at Mrs. Zhong's room.

In front of the main hall, there are two blue-and-white porcelain vases with blue background and white glaze. Looking up from the first one, you can see a majestic picture of mountains and rivers hanging on the middle hall.This picture, appearing here, is probably for Zhong's sake to please Mo Shuyuan, otherwise, since she is a woman, it should be the picture of flowers, birds, insects and fish.

There is a long cabinet table under the middle hall, the two wings of the table are slightly raised, carved with hollow patterns, and in the center of the table, there is a small unicorn Tengyun octagonal incense burner, and there is light smoke in the incense burner, as if Qilin is swallowing clouds and mist.

There was no one in the room, so the servants led Feng Shi and Mo Xi into the room to sit down, turned around, and went to look for Zhong Shi.

Mo Xi turned to the first room, and saw that there seemed to be an annexe next to it, with a bead curtain blocking all sight.

Seeing that Mo Xi was a little curious, Feng said, "Mother is a Buddhist believer, and there is a Bodhisattva inside. When she has nothing to do, Mother will go to pay her respects."

Hearing this, Mo Xi withdrew her gaze and smiled slightly.

Speaking of which, this was the first time Mo Xi came to Zhong's side.After one glance, he realized that the person who inherited the title was naturally much more magnificent than he looked from other places.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door. Mo Xi looked out of the door and saw a middle-aged woman walking in, supported by a nun.

That lady, wearing a beautiful silver satin embroidered jacket, her lower body is a skirt of the same color, with jade bracelets on her hands, and a few red hairpins on her head. She is graceful and luxurious, with a self-contained figure. , but also a wonderful person.

"Aunt~"

"Mother~"

Mo Xi and Feng Shi got up and greeted Zhong Shi.

Zhong's gaze swept across Mo Xi's body, and finally landed on Feng's body, becoming softer. He responded softly, waved his hands, and asked the two to sit down.

Immediately there are servants, offering tea and cakes.

"Recently my daughter-in-law is busy with the affairs of the house and hasn't come to see mother for a long time. How is mother?" Feng said with a smile, her hands hanging on her knees, naturally appropriate.

Mo Xi is the person she brought, so she has to start the conversation.

"Yu'er has a heart, this first month, there are many things in the house, and you still miss me, so I didn't love you in vain."

Although the Feng family is not the daughter-in-law of Fu Guogong, she has worked hard all these years and managed the big house in an orderly manner. The Zhong family has seen it, and although she doesn't say it on the face, she is very satisfied with this daughter-in-law.Moreover, Feng Shi is very good at being a man, and he handles things smoothly, which wins Zhong Shi's heart.

As Zhong Shi said, his eyes fell on Mo Xi: "Isn't this the seventh girl from the Fourth Uncle's family?" The Fourth Uncle Zhong mentioned was Mo Xi's father, Mo Heng.

"Auntie remembers Xi'er, and Xi'er is flattered."

Although, Mo Xi vaguely knew that this Zhong family remembered her, and she might have delayed the blessing of the palace's rebellion against the ancestors last time, but this scene still has to be said.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhong smiled noncommittally, with a lukewarm attitude.

Speaking of which, the aunts of the Mo family are really strange, unlike the sisters-in-law of other families, these few seldom see each other on weekdays, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have no contact with each other.

As for why such a situation has come about, Mo Xi doesn't know, maybe because of various interests involved, there is little contact.Except for the New Year's Eve, Mo Xi never saw a few aunts gather for tea.

After asking this sentence, Zhong turned around and ignored Mo Xi, "Yu'er, why didn't you bring my good grandchildren here today?"

Feng Shi smiled awkwardly at Mo Xi, and gave Mo Xi a look to make Mo Xi calm down.

"Rong Xing and Rong Yuan are both troublesome. If you bring them here, your mother will definitely be troubled. That girl Rong Lin was naughty a while ago and twisted her leg. No, she's still lying on the bed." Rong Yuan, The second son of the Feng family, two years older than Rong Xingxu, is the child who played with Rong Xing in the courtyard.And Rong Lin is the daughter of the Feng family.

"Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?" Zhong frowned, with a bit of blame on her face.

"Mother doesn't need to worry, it's fine. The doctor said, you just need to rest for more than ten days. My mother is busy with the affairs of the house. How can I make my mother worry about such things?" Feng said in a polite manner. Seeing that Zhong's face has softened a lot, he opened his mouth to mention Mo Xi's matter: "Mother locked up the son of Butler Mo yesterday?"

Hearing this, Zhong Shi raised her eyebrows, glanced at Mo Xi, and looked at Feng Shi: "Why, Yu'er listened to some dubious people and wants to intervene in this matter?"

Feng's speech faltered, and she let out a dry cough. Facing Zhong's words, she gave Mo Xi an apologetic look. Mo Xi didn't care about Zhong's words, but smiled helplessly. As the saying goes, people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Mo Xi has always been tolerant, so naturally she will not be quick and serious with Zhong Shi.

"That's not true, it's just that when Yu'er heard about it today, she felt that her mother had done something wrong. By coincidence, Xi'er came to my place, so I told about it. Xi'er felt that there was some way to remedy this matter. Mother shouldn't have shut Mo Yun away, so I brought Xi'er to meet mother."

As Feng said, she didn't mention Mo Xi's request, she just took the matter to herself. The words were clever, and Mo Xi felt grateful.In this way, a good reason was found for Mo Xi, making it convenient for Mo Xi to act.

In fact, Zhong's heart is not without doubts about what happened.She has been in charge of the Mo family for so many years, how could she not know that her handling of this matter was really inappropriate?
Steward Mo has managed the Mo family for so many years, and she has done nothing but hard work. This time, without saying a word, she put Mo Yun, the son of Steward Mo, into the dungeon, which somewhat hurt Steward Mo's heart. If things go on like this, she is afraid that Steward Mo will give birth. Come on.

"The fact that Mo Yun embezzled money for personal gain by phoning public officials is solid evidence, what's wrong with it?" Knowing it is one thing, but doing it is another.How could Zhong not know what kind of person Mo Jiashu was?She was only afraid that if she hesitated for a moment, she would ruin the ink frame book.

Compared with a domestic servant and a son, Zhong naturally favored his son.Even though that son was not his own, after all these years of raising him, he still has feelings. He is a bit of a dandy, but he is still filial to her mother.

"Excuse me for speaking bluntly, Auntie really thinks the evidence is convincing? I just don't know, is the evidence in Auntie's mouth convincing?" Mo Xi opened her mouth, her pair of glazed eyes as calm as water, without dodging, looked straight at Zhong...
