Was the whole group wiped out in the previous life? Reborn to drag the crippled king into the bridal
Chapter 33: Lifting the Heir
the next morning.
Mo Zhaohua took Yueying out, and Zhenzhu and Amber were left behind again.
Amber asked Pearl sullenly, "Pearl, do you think the young lady doesn't want us anymore?"
Pearl was calm, "How could that be? This is to save His Majesty the King's face, don't think too much about it."
"Will the lady always be like this?"
"Maybe. After all, Yueying knows Kung Fu and can protect the young lady better than us."
"Why aren't you in a hurry?"
"Even though the young lady doesn't take us with her when she goes out, isn't she still closer to us at home?"
"That's because we are familiar with the mansion. When we go to Prince Yu's mansion, I'm afraid we can only be maids to sweep the floor."
"As long as I can follow the young lady, I am willing even if I can only be a watering maid."
"Actually, I am willing to do that, but the gap is too big in the short term and I feel a little sad. It will be fine once I get used to it."
On the other side, Mo Zhaohua and Yueying had already reached the street.
Soon the carriage stopped outside a cloth shop and the master and servant got out and went in.
Mo Zhaohua didn't know when she would see Chu Xuanchi next time, but she started preparing from today.
Clothes and shoes both require sizes, which is not easy for her to do, but she can still embroider a handkerchief or a purse sachet.
She checked her small warehouse last night and found some cloth, but unfortunately the colors and styles were not suitable for men.
That's why she came out specially today to buy some suitable cloth so that she could embroider the handkerchief as soon as possible.
After buying the cloth she went back, and sat at the table to draw the pattern, but ended up hesitating among the pines and cypresses.
Zhenzhu had been grinding ink for a long time, and seeing that she hadn't started writing, she asked caringly, "Miss, are you worried about something?"
Mo Zhaohua rested the tip of the pen on his chin, looking a little cute. "It's not a big deal. I'm just hesitating about which pattern to choose."
Amber was sewing on the side. Hearing this, she said, "If you like it, then you don't have to choose. Just take them all."
Mo Zhaohua was instantly relieved, "It's a good idea, it's not a big deal, why bother choosing?"
Since she likes pine and cypress, and they all fit Chu Xuanchi's tenacious character, then just embroider them all.
After she figured it out, she started to draw as if inspired by God, and actually drew three styles in a row.
One picture is of a pine tree on a cliff, one is of a cypress tree in the snow, and the other is of a carnation, all of which have excellent meanings.
These styles were obviously for men. Pearl guessed, "Miss, are you going to..."
"Shh?" Mo Zhaohua made a gesture to keep quiet, blinked and lowered his voice, "Just keep it to yourself."
Yueying usually just followed her out, and when they were in the courtyard, she mostly stayed in the outer room, with Pearl and Amber serving her closely.
Pearl's eyes were full of ridicule. "I understand. I promise not to tell anyone a word."
Amber felt a sour feeling in her heart, "Miss, do you have a secret with Pearl?"
Mo Zhaohua waved at her and said, "I didn't say you can't watch it, but you have to promise not to tell anyone."
Amber came over happily and said, "My mouth is loose only to young ladies, but I am tight to others."
When she saw the three patterns of pine, cypress and bamboo on the table, she was puzzled, "What is this..."
Pearl leaned close to her ear and lowered her voice to a very low level, with a hint of joking, "A token of love."
Mo Zhaohua's face was already red, and he threatened shyly, "If anyone dares to tell others, don't follow me anymore."
Pearl giggled and waved her hands to indicate that she didn't dare.
Amber had a complicated expression, she didn't expect the young lady to accept it so quickly, the young lady had never given King Qi any needlework she had made herself.
Now that Zhenzhu mentioned the words "token of love", the young lady did not deny it, but it was legitimate to give it to Prince Yu.
Not to mention a marriage granted by His Majesty, even in ordinary families, men and women can exchange tokens of love after engagement.
***
She was not the only one who was anxious about Mo Yaohua entering Prince Qi's mansion.
Without Mo Zhaohua to pave the way, the old lady started to set her sights on her identity.
The Dongling Kingdom attaches great importance to the hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children. The status of a concubine's daughter is extremely low. She is basically not allowed to become the principal wife, let alone marry into the royal family.
According to the rules, a prince can have one principal wife, one concubine, two secondary wives, and the rest can only be concubines.
Previously, they wanted to make Mo Zhaohua the principal wife, and then let Prince Qi take Mo Yaohua as a concubine, but now this plan is no longer feasible.
The old lady specially found Mo Yun to discuss the matter today, and proposed that Mo Yaohua be registered under the name of the mistress and become a legitimate daughter.
"Mother wants to raise the legitimate heir?" Mo Yun had also thought of this method, but was concerned about Lan Ruyu and could not make up his mind.
The old lady nodded, "Yes, if Sister Yao is a legitimate daughter, even if she can't be the main wife or concubine, she can always be a concubine."
Mo Yun was afraid that Lan Ruyu would be unhappy. "Although this plan is feasible, it still requires Yu'er's consent. Let me ask her first."
The old lady said coldly: "She is just a concubine, how can she make the decision on this matter? Don't forget your status."
"No matter what, she is the child's biological mother after all, and the mother is also a mother. I believe you can understand."
The old lady said angrily, "I really don't know what kind of magic potion she fed you to make you pamper your concubine to such an extent."
Although she valued her eldest grandson Mo Shenghua and was somewhat partial to Mo Yaohua, she never looked down upon Lan Ruyu.
That is to say, Lan Ruyu has a good temper, is thoughtful and low-key in her work, and does not rely on her favor to become arrogant. Otherwise, how could she tolerate it?
"It's getting late. Mother, you should take a rest. Son, you should go back to bed too. We have to get up early tomorrow."
Mo Yun couldn't bear to hear others talking about Lan Ruyu, but he couldn't contradict the old lady, so he could only leave and seek some peace and quiet.
The old lady couldn't stop him and was so angry, "You really can't say anything!"
Madam Liu comforted her, "Don't be angry, old lady. Aunt Lan gave birth to the eldest young master and the third young lady after all."
The old lady looked vicious, "If it weren't for this, she wouldn't be like a concubine. How could I tolerate her until now? Humph!"
Madam Liu continued to persuade, "The eldest young master is very talented in writing, and the third young lady is favored by Prince Qi, so Aunt Lan has also made contributions."
The old lady's words softened a little, "I hope she can consider the child and not let her emotions ruin the plan of raising the heir."
