Chapter 19 The Belated Family

Nangong Xu listened silently. He understood that his father wanted him to explain to his sister. But could Mo'er really listen to these explanations? Over the years... they really didn't have any responsibility. He doubted how much Mo'er had for this family.

"Tell her that although the prince of Jinjiang County... as long as Prince Changping and His Highness Yan are there for a day, no one dares to aggrieved him. She married her and was the eldest daughter-in-law of Jinjiang County Prince's Mansion. When she got married, her father would prepare a generous dowry for her, so she would definitely let her go out in a grand manner." Nangong Huai said.

Nangong Xu nodded and said, "I understand. I will go and persuade Mo'er. Madam..."

Nangong Huai frowned slightly and said, "Your mother doesn't have to worry about it, I will tell her."

"I understand. I'll go to visit my mother first, and then go to Mo'er's place." Nangong Xu said.

Nangong Huai nodded and looked at Nangong Xu and said, "It's good that you understand. Your mother... it's not easy for years, and treating you two brothers is no worse than your biological ones. You are the eldest son of the Duke of Chu's Mansion. As a father, you don't want any problems in the Nangong family to have another problem, do you understand?"

"Yes, father."

"Go."

"The boy gave up."

When Nangong Xu went out, Nangong Huai sighed at the messy handwriting on the table. He raised his hand and wrote a big word "波" on the rice paper on the table. He couldn't help but be stunned. After being fussed by that girl, he actually forgot to pursue her name change without authorization!

Although the Nangong family's villa in the city is not as big as the Duke of Chu in the Jinling Imperial City, it is much larger than the ancestral house in Xifeng Village. Since the construction of the palace in the city, it has become popular for the powerful people in the Jinling Imperial City to build villas around the palace. Although it is really amazing that these villas can live in one month a year, as a minister, they naturally love it based on the interests of His Majesty the Emperor. Nangong Huai, who is fortunate to be a fellow villager with His Majesty the Emperor, naturally cannot be left behind. The villa of the Nangong family can be regarded as the leader among the many villas in terms of location and scale.

The other courtyard prepared for Nangong Mo is naturally not bad. Whether it is the Nangong Xu brothers who feel guilty about Nangong Mo or the Zheng family who wants to play in front of Nangong Huai, they will never treat Nangong Mo badly in such matters. Especially after Zheng found that Nangong Mo's temper was not as harmless as he originally thought, he generously distributed the best courtyard except the main courtyard where Nangong Huai lived to Nangong Mo.

"Mo'er, look at this bamboo courtyard? I asked the servants to clean up in advance, and no one has lived in it." Nangong Hui said with an excited look on his face.

Of course, Nangong Mo knew that this villa was built six years ago, and the Nangong family had never come back after it was completed. In this regard, Nangong Huai was really not as good as His Majesty today. At least His Majesty the Emperor would send his descendants back to worship his ancestors every year.

"It's great, I'm working hard." Nangong Mo nodded. This was definitely sincere. The yard was really good. Both the layout and style were very consistent with her preferences. Nangong Hui was a little sad and sighed, "Do you have to be so polite to your second brother?" Looking at his dim expression, Nangong Mo was only silent. She could feel that Nangong Hui had been trying hard to be good to her. This kind of goodness was also more simple and enthusiastic than Nangong Huai and Nangong Xu. But... what's the use of this? The real Nangong Qing... is no longer there.

She inherited Nangong Qing's body, Nangong Qing's memory, and even Nangong Qing's identity, but she did not inherit Nangong Qing's feelings except for the sadness and resentment before death. Nangong Qing might have had a deep relationship with her brother and father, otherwise she would not be so sad. An eleven-year-old girl was abandoned by her father and brother after her mother passed away.

As Nangong Mo, he would not resent Nangong Hui. Because Nangong Hui was actually just a teenager who was only thirteen or fourteen years old. They didn’t even grow up together since childhood, but... you came late, five years later.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Mo'er will have a good rest today." Nangong Hui quickly calmed down the gloom on his face and showed a cheerful smile, "When I'm free tomorrow, my second brother will take you to the city to play."

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows, "Don't you need to go see Mrs. Wan?"

Hearing the title of Mrs. Wan, Nangong Hui twitched the corner of his mouth. He stepped forward and hugged her in his arms, raised his hand and rubbed her hair and said with a smile: "Brother will solve it. Don't think so much about it, little girl."

Nodding, Nangong Mo retreated from his arms and said, "I'm going to rest."

"Wait." Nangong Hui grabbed her, "Come!"

"I have met the second young master and the eldest lady."

A middle-aged man led a few girls and mothers over and greeted them respectfully.

Nangong Hui smiled and said, "Mo'er will see if you like these people who serve you. If you don't like them, please change them if you don't like them. If you use them easily, you can take them back to Jinling in the future. These are all girls in the other courtyards."

Nangong Mo understood his meaning. Because he was a girl who had been in the other courtyard for many years, the chance of being a member of the Zheng family was greatly reduced. If he was taken to Jinling in the future, his loyalty would be far from being comparable to the girl he chose to return to the Duke of Chu's mansion. Nangong Mo was not worried about this. In this world, those who had the opportunity to betray people are trusted, and she would also let people know the consequences of the person who dared to betray her.

Thinking she was unwilling to choose, Nangong Hui patiently advised: "In the past, you had no one to take care of yourself. When you go home, the grandfather of the Duke's daughter must not be missed. Even these days, you have to date others. Mo'er should take a look."

In fact, Nangong Hui was worried too much. Even if Nangong Mo was not from this era, he still had Nangong Mo's memories. How could he not know the truth? What's more, she is not a good person herself, and naturally there is no idea that all beings are equal, and she uses a girl to ignore human rights. She is a killer. Even if she doesn't regard human life as if she is careless, human life is really not very valuable in her eyes. It was useless before because it was useless, but now since there is this need, even if it is just used as a decoration, it has to be placed here.

"No need to choose, just leave a few." Nangong Mo said.

Nangong Hui thought for a while and said, "According to the rules, you must have four big girls, six second-class girls, twelve little girls and two mothers in charge of the business. This, this... these two, take the big girl's errands first. The rest, Mr. Wang, please choose. Use snacks... don't forget the lessons of Manager Li." Finally, Nangong Hui said lightly.

Mr. Wang's heart was shocked. Manager Li was guarding the Nangong family's ancestral home and in charge of all the tenant farmers in Danyang. He was originally a fat man who was envious of everyone, but unfortunately, he heard that because of neglecting the eldest lady, he was beaten and kicked out of the Duke of Chu's Mansion by his grandfather. At least no one dared to use the servants who drove out of the Duke of Chu's Mansion in Chu.
