Chapter 966: Chapter 966: It’s All Pretend

Who knew that just as she took a couple of steps, Old Lady Mo, sitting on the ground, suddenly looked at her alertly, even forgetting to cry and shout. Trembling, she asked: "You... you... what do you want to do?"

This maid had great strength; just a moment ago a slap from her had swollen her face. Old Lady Mo was somewhat wary of her.

"Aren’t you saying you want to see your Miss? I will take you inside."

"I, an old woman, am not going! Who knows if you want to kill and silence me!"

At this moment, when others were willing to take her into the General’s Mansion, Old Lady Mo refused to go.

"What do you want then?"

Zi Xia frowned. This old lady, who had been clamoring to get into the General’s Mansion, now refused to enter when permitted. Clearly, there must be some trickery involved.

"If you want me, an old woman, to go in, only if your Miss comes out to welcome me."

The people of the Mo family were hungry, thirsty, and tired. Originally, hearing they could enter the General’s Mansion made them very happy, but no sooner had they felt happy than they heard Old Lady Mo’s refusal. Instantly, it was like a bucket of cold water was poured over them, chilling their hearts.

Right then, everyone’s eyes uniformly looked at Old Lady Mo, their faces showing disapproval, thinking whether Old Lady Mo had gone mad. When others were willing to let them into the General’s Mansion, she, on the contrary, was putting on airs. Did she really think she was Xuexue’s biological grandmother?

"If you do not wish to go in, then just stay here." After Zi Xia said this, she turned around and walked into the mansion.

Having wandered north and south for so many years, Zi Xia deeply understood that some people, the more face you gave them, the less they knew their own boundaries. She decided to cool her down properly and took this opportunity to return to the mansion to discuss with the legitimate eldest Miss how to handle this matter.

At this turn of events, Old Lady Mo, sitting on the ground, was stunned, looking foolishly as Zi Xia’s figure slowly disappeared at the entrance of the General’s Mansion...

"Eh! Oh! Why did she leave?" Grandma Mo came back to her senses, glanced at the door of the General’s Mansion, then turned her head to look at the Mo family’s people, somewhat at a loss.

"You just keep up the act, keep it up." Old Master Mo said irritably.

Just a while ago, they were allowed to enter the General’s Mansion, yet Old Lady Mo was putting on airs, unaware of her own weight. Before Xuexue recognized them, they were nothing.

"This... this...!" Old Lady Mo climbed up from the ground, uncertain of what to do next.

They had caused a commotion, and without realizing it, it was already broad daylight.

Right in front of the General’s Mansion was a street, and the passers-by slowly began to increase from a sparse few.

Seeing the entire family of Old Lady Mo making a scene at the entrance of the General’s Mansion, people gathered around, curious about what was going on.

Just then, another person looking like a maid came out from inside the mansion.

Old Lady Mo saw her, her eyes lit up, ready to walk forward.

But she saw the maid slightly shake her head.

Instantly, Old Lady Mo stopped in her tracks, yet her eyes still unblinkingly watched her.

The maid walked up to them without sidetracking, and sternly asked: "What are you doing making such a racket early in the morning at the entrance of the General’s Mansion?"

Old Master Mo, fearing that Old Lady Mo would offend a noble, quickly stepped forward and smiled: "We are the legitimate eldest Miss’s grandparents from the countryside, please kindly inform her that her grandparents are here."

"Oh! So, that’s the case!" The Maid nodded, her expression softened, then she spoke loudly: "Do not worry, the Miss is a filial person. Knowing you’ve come, she will definitely be happy."

"What filial piety? It’s all pretense, she’s just a cunning person." Standing behind Old Master Mo, Old Lady Mo, holding back a stomach full of anger, could not help but blurt out.
