Chapter 1057: Chapter 1057: The Wood Has Already Formed Into a Boat

Xuexue: "You should ask her yourself."

Madam Ruan turned to Mo Xiuzhi and asked, "When did this happen?"

Mo Xiuzhi: "Just these past few days."

Old Lady Mo was very pleased. If Mo Xiuzhi could become a concubine in the General’s Mansion, they could live here openly and legitimately for the rest of their lives. Hence, she said to Xuexue, "Whatever you say, Xiuzhi is still your sister. If she marries well, you should be happy for her."

Facing Old Lady Mo’s shameless boldness, Xuexue coldly said, "You should ask my father about this; I can’t make this decision."

"She and your father have already sealed the deal. Xuexue, give your grandmother some face. We are all family. When she and your father tie the knot, it will bring us even closer. Just let it be, don’t make it difficult for her, will you?"

"Closer than close?" Xuexue sneered coldly: "Then what should I call her, sister or Concubine?"

"This... this..."

Old Lady Mo was taken aback for a moment and then forced a smile: "What does it matter? It’s just a title."

"Old Madam Mo, do you find this sentence funny?"

What does ’doesn’t matter’ mean, how ridiculous!

Someone who is a sister in terms of seniority, yet delusionally wants to become her stepmother.

It’s laughable enough to make others lose their teeth if this gets out.

Such a grotesque idea, Old Lady Mo. For the sake of wealth and status, she really dares to think anything.

Unexpectedly, Old Lady Mo still argued confidently: "What’s the issue? After all, you are not biological sisters, and our Mo family has raised you for over a decade. It’s time for you to repay our kindness."

Xuexue wanted to laugh out loud.

What does she mean by ’raising her for over a decade’? It’s more like she has been working like a servant for the Mo family for more than a decade.

Indeed, ever since Xuexue was sensible, she began learning household chores with Madam Xie, especially when she saw her foster mother being wronged. She worked even harder, all to lessen her foster mother’s suffering.

Despite their mother and daughters diligently working for so many years at the Mo’s, even securing food and clothing was a problem.

And now, they still have the nerve to say they have raised her for over a decade. Such thick-skinned people!

"I really can’t make this decision; you should ask my father about this."

Regarding the outrageous Old Lady Mo, Xuexue had nothing to say and turned around, taking Zi Xia with her without looking back.

"Look, look how arrogant this wretched girl is! In a while, once I become a Concubine, I’ll have the General strip her of her authority to manage the household. Then we’ll see how mighty she can be! Hmph!" Mo Xiuzhi pointed at Xuexue’s departing figure and spoke unrestrainedly.

"Shut your mouth," Madam Ruan shouted fiercely.

Has her daughter’s brain been damaged by a door? It’s a matter that’s not even settled, and she dares to boast so recklessly here. If Xuexue is offended and the General doesn’t acknowledge Mo Xiuzhi, they wouldn’t even have a place to stay in this unfamiliar environment of the Capital.

"Mom, why are you yelling so loud? You scared me to death." Xiuzhi placed her hand over her heart, indicating that her mother had frightened her.

"You foolish girl, who’s scaring whom now!"

Madam Ruan was furious. Her daughter was senseless, dealing with a matter concerning a woman’s reputation and she didn’t even discuss it with her. If the General doesn’t acknowledge it, her entire life could be ruined.

"Oh my! Mom, stop scolding me. The General Lord was very kind to me yesterday evening!" Remembering the intimate moments she spent with the General last night, a blush crept onto Xiuzhi’s cheeks.

"You... you...!" Madam Ruan was furious.

Old Lady Mo stepped forward, all smiles, and said: "Oh my! Madam Ruan, getting connected with the General through marriage is a huge blessing, stop scolding Xiuzhi."

"Mother-in-law, how can you even say this?"

"Exactly, think about it. If Xiuzhi enters the doors of the General’s Mansion and becomes a Concubine of the General, our Hengjian’s career is basically secured. By then, our Mo family will truly rise to glory." Old Lady Mo spoke more and more joyfully, as if glory and riches were right before her eyes.

Listening to this, Madam Ruan finally calmed down.

Indeed, they had traveled all the way from Mo Family Village to the Capital for Mo Hengjian’s future. If Mo Xiuzhi could be of help, it certainly seemed to be a feasible solution.
