Chapter 1053: Chapter 1053: Mo Xiuzhi Wants to Become a Concubine

The maid spoke again in a low, mysterious voice: "The maid just saw Miss Mo enter the Old Master’s room, stayed for quite a while, and then came out."

"Miss Mo?" Xuexue was momentarily startled.

"It’s the cousin from the country side related to the eldest young miss." The young maid spoke cautiously, fearing the eldest young miss would be unhappy.

Xuexue then realized that she was talking about Mo Xiuzhi. What relatives? They are all a bunch of bloodsuckers!

"What was she doing in my father’s room?" Xuexue’s mind wasn’t quite catching up.

"What else could she have been doing? Obviously trying to become a Concubine," the little maid declared with a sensationalism that brooked no contradiction.

This bit of gossip had long been spreading among the servants, but Miss Mo was the only one kept in the dark. The maid couldn’t hold back anymore and finally came to report to Miss Mo.

"Pfft...!"

The moment Xuexue had sipped her tea, she couldn’t help but spray it out, what the heck? Mo Xiuzhi wanted to become her father’s Concubine? That notion was enough to make her die laughing.

"Cough cough cough...!"

Choking on the tea, Xuexue was seized by a fit of coughing.

"What’s the matter? Miss, you must have been shocked by the news," the little maid thought Xuexue was coughing from the shock of the news and kept on saying: "That Miss Mo still pretends to be your elder sister! If she becomes the Old Master’s Concubine, wouldn’t that be incestuous? Later on, are you supposed to call her sister or Concubine? Ah! It’s such a mess."

"What kind of nonsense?"

Holding back her cough, Xuexue barely caught her breath. Was Mo Xiuzhi fed up with living? To actually set her sights on her father, wanting to become the Concubine of General’s Mansion? She would love to see that happen.

"Miss, don’t get angry. As long as the Old Master doesn’t agree to take her as a Concubine, she won’t be able to claim that position."

"This young miss isn’t angry," Xuexue returned to her nonchalant demeanor.

"It’s good that you’re not angry. It’s not worth it for this kind of person."

"Mhm."

"So... so... may the maid be dismissed now?"

"Mhm!"

"Is the maid really going to leave now?"

"Go on, go on," Xuexue couldn’t help but let a smile peek through the corners of her mouth. This chatty little maid, though a bit of a nag, was also frank and endearing.

"Miss, please don’t be angry, the maid is taking her leave."

The young maid said as she turned and left.

As her figure disappeared, Zi Xia came in from outside: "Miss, what was that little maid saying? She seemed so secretive."

Xuexue smiled lightly: "Some interesting matters within the mansion."

Hearing this, Zi Xia couldn’t help but murmur in a low voice: "That little maid, she’s been in the Mansion for only a few days, and she doesn’t understand the rules at all, daring to disturb the Miss with trivial matters. Really!"

Finishing her thought, she raised her voice and said: "Miss, that little maid doesn’t know her place. Should I sell her off?"

"No, I think she’s quite good, let her stay in the Mansion."

"But she..."

"It’s fine. It’s nice to have someone who dares tell me the truth," Xuexue said, putting down her teacup and standing up: "Let’s go pay a visit to our relatives."

"Relatives?"

Zi Xia was visibly confused.

Xuexue didn’t say anything more and walked forward.

Zi Xia hurriedly followed. Where exactly was Miss going to visit relatives?

Winding through the Mansion, passing through one beautiful courtyard after another, they soon arrived in front of a shabby courtyard.

The weeds that had flourished there had been cleared away, and the place was much more pleasing to the eye than when they had just arrived, with the spiderwebs, weeds, and mice all gone.

The Mo family was sitting in the courtyard eating, at a time just after lunch.

Yet, their table was filled with various desserts, clearly meant for after the meal.

At first glance, what they were eating seemed even better than what the mistress herself had.

Don’t be deceived by their rundown lodgings, they weren’t short on life’s luxuries.

Xuexue wondered who had provided them with such good provisions, since she hadn’t sent anyone.

"Miss, it was all sent by Auntie Tang," Zi Xia hurriedly explained in a low voice, seeing the Miss’s puzzled look.
