afternoon.

Mo Zhaohua went to Wanxiangju.

She needed to discuss the dowry with Rong Qing.

Rong Qing couldn't believe what he said, "You actually want Shili Hongzhuang, isn't that asking for your father's life?"

She was in charge of the household affairs and knew very well how many properties there were in the mansion. The only thing she didn't know was Mo Yun's small warehouse.

However, she felt that since Mo Yun doted on Lan Ruyu and also favored Mo Yaohua, he probably didn't leave much wealth behind.

Mo Zhaohua knew better than her, "Mother, you are underestimating father. He won't die. At most he will bleed a little."

Rong Qing was a little skeptical, "He didn't even have the money to take care of your grandfather's funeral, how could he really prepare such a large dowry for you?"

Mo Zhaohua snorted coldly, "Father doesn't have money to take care of grandfather's funeral, but he has money to buy antiques and paintings, and money to give to Lan's mother and daughter."

"He is indeed very generous to the Lan mother and daughter, but he still has to prepare a dowry for Mo Yaohua. Doesn't that make him even less rich?"

Rong Qing herself didn't pay much attention to Mo Yun's affairs, but Aunt Qiao kept a close eye on them and told her everything she knew.

Mo Zhaohua saw that she kept speaking for Mo Yun and was afraid that she would think of their old relationship, "Mother, are you feeling sorry for father?"

"Why would I feel sorry for him?" Rong Qing denied it very quickly, "I was just analyzing whether he can handle this matter."

Mo Zhaohua was confident, "Don't worry, mother. Since Zhao Zhao dares to ask, there is no chance for him to refuse."

Rong Qing smiled with relief, "Zhao Zhao is getting smarter and smarter. The most important thing is that you finally know how to make profits for yourself."

Mo Zhaohua also sighed, "Zhao Zhao was indeed too stupid before. He thought that if he didn't fight or compete, they would treat me well."

Rong Qing shook his head, "No, this is all my fault. I taught you to be like this, and as a result, you have suffered so much."

Mo Zhaohua smiled and said, "Mother is right, because there is no such intrigue in my maternal grandfather's family, and mother is a simple person."

Rong Qing thought of her peaceful mother's home, "Yes, I've been used to it since I was a child at your grandparents' home, and I don't know how dangerous other families are."

Mo Zhaohua's eyes were firm, "It's okay, just bear with it for another month, and we will be able to leave this place where people are eaten without leaving any bones."

Rong Qing once said that the day she returned home would be the day she and Mo Yun would divorce, and she was looking forward to that day.

The mother and daughter talked about the dowry for a long time, but Mo Zhaohua did not tell her about the threat to Mo Yun.

Rong Qing later changed the subject, "Today is the Qiqiao Festival. Will His Highness come to pick you up? Or will you go there?"

Mo Zhaohua wanted to say this as well, "I will come to pick Zhao Zhao up for dinner, so I'm afraid I'll be a little late tonight."

Rong Qing smiled and said, "It's nothing. I believe that Your Highness is a person who knows the rules and will not tarnish Zhao Zhao's reputation."

Mo Zhaohua curled his lips, "Mother has only met Brother Xuanchi once, and they didn't even talk, how can you trust him so much?"

She accidentally called out the private name again, and this time no one reminded her, so she didn't notice it.

Rong Qing felt complicated when he saw her playful yet affectionate expression, fearing that she would fall into the quagmire of emotions.

I thought that I had fallen into the love web woven by Mo Yun and thought I had met my true love, but ended up living in a daze for half my life.

However, when she met Mo Zhaohua's gaze, she comforted herself again, thinking that her daughter was smart and would definitely not be like her.

She said as if praying: "I don't trust Your Highness, but my Zhao Zhao. The person Zhao Zhao chooses will definitely not be bad."

Mo Zhaohua's eyes sparkled with confidence, "Thank you for your trust, mother. Zhao Zhao also believes in my own judgment."

***

In the evening, a carriage from Prince Yu's Palace came to pick up Mo Zhaohua.

As usual, Mo Zhaohua only took Yueying out with him and asked the other two maids to keep him company.

Chu Xuanchi was waiting in the flower hall. He watched Mo Zhaohua walk in slowly and called out softly, "Zhao Zhao."

Mo Zhaohua bowed with a smile as beautiful as a flower, "Brother Xuanchi."

Chu Xuanchi followed her with his eyes, unwilling to look away for a moment, "It's been a long time since we last met."

Mo Zhaohua sat down on the chair and took the tea from Yueying. "Yes, it feels like a long time since we last met."

Whenever she came to Prince Yu's Mansion, Chu Xuanchi would send everyone else away and only leave Wuying and Yueying to serve her inside.

Chu Xuanchi asked knowingly, "Does Zhao Zhao miss me?"

Mo Zhaohua nodded, "Of course I do. Isn't Zhao Zhao very unreserved?"

Even though she knew this was not reserved, she still wanted him to know how she felt about him.

Isn't the mouth meant to speak? If she doesn't say anything, how can Chu Xuanchi see what's in her heart?

He couldn't see her sincerity, so he didn't dare to trust her and only treated her as a chess piece sent by Chu Xuanhan.

Chu Xuanchi was much happier when he heard her say in person that she missed him than when he first saw Yueying’s description in the letter.

He smiled, "I miss Zhao Zhao too. We will be married in less than a month. Zhao Zhao doesn't need to be reserved."

Mo Zhaohua just took a sip of tea, his lips were moist and attractive, "Zhao Zhao thinks so too, there are no outsiders here."

What she meant was that Chu Xuanchi’s people were her own people!

Chu Xuanchi was getting more and more excited. "Zhao Zhao is staying for dinner today. Did you say hello to Madam Mo before leaving?"

Mo Zhaohua was touched by his attentiveness, "Mother said that she believed that Brother Xuanchi would not tarnish Zhaozhao's reputation."

Because he was going to be back late, Chu Xuanchi actually remembered to remind Rong Qing. He really is worthy of being the man who protected her life in her previous life.

Chu Xuanchi was a little surprised to learn that Rong Qing trusted him so much, "I guess Zhao Zhao and Madam Mo said a lot of good things about me, right?"

Mo Zhaohua winked playfully, "Do I need to tell you how good Brother Xuan Chi is? Mother's eyes are shining."

Chu Xuanchi originally came to pick up Mo Zhaohua for dinner, so the two chatted in the flower hall for a while and then moved to the dining hall.

The dishes and chopsticks had already been set out in the dining room. After they took their seats, the others were sent out by Wuying and Yueying.

Chu Xuanchi glanced at the dishes on the table, "Do you like these dishes?"

The table was full of Mo Zhaohua's favorites. She lowered her brows and smiled, "I like them. They are all Zhao Zhao's favorites."

She had already guessed that Yueying had asked Amber privately to do this, but why did she do it only today?

Yueying has been with her for some time and has a good relationship with Amber. If she wanted to find out her preferences, she would have done it long ago.

Is it because today is a holiday, or because of the misunderstanding about the fish last time, that you feel you should find out first?

Mo Zhaohua thought about it over and over again, and came up with so many reasons, but the only thing she never thought of was that Chu Xuanchi truly believed her.

It was because she knew that Chu Xuanchi had suffered a great change at a young age and it was not easy for him to trust others, so she did not dare to expect that she could trust her so quickly.

While I was thinking, I heard Chu Xuanchi speak, "As long as Zhao Zhao likes it, I'll do it according to your preferences after we get married."

Mo Zhaohua quickly collected his thoughts and looked up at him, "What about Brother Xuanchi's preferences? Don't we need to take them into consideration?"

Chu Xuanchi's eyes showed a hint of doting, "As long as Zhao Zhao likes it, I will definitely like it too."

There was another sentence that he hadn't said yet, but he would definitely say it tonight.
