Chapter 967: Chapter 967: Dare Not Clash (Happy Lunar New Year’s Eve Everyone)

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Old Master Mo sternly rebuked in a low voice.

Old Lady Mo: "It’s true. She clearly knew we were coming, yet she didn’t come out to greet us. She’s just a cunning person."

"Are you still talking?"

Old Master Mo fiercely glared at her, then quickly turned his head towards the Maid with a smile, "Noble, don’t listen to my wife’s nonsense; she’s getting senile."

"You old fool, always siding with outsiders, you’re the one who’s confused!"

The Maid glanced around at the increasingly gathering crowd, then turned back and said to Old Lady Mo and the others, "Please don’t make a fuss here, it’s not good to cause a disturbance! It would be troublesome if it alarms the General. I’ll go inside and announce your arrival; you all just wait patiently."

"Thank you, noble." Unexpectedly, this time Old Lady Mo was quite tame.

Ever since this Maid appeared, Madam Ruan fixed her eyes on her intensely.

"Mother-in-law, why does this Maid look so familiar to me! Isn’t she that noble who visited our home that day?"

"Not at all, stop talking nonsense," Old Lady Mo unusually shouted in anger.

"If it’s not, then it’s not. Why get so angry?"

Madam Ruan couldn’t help but mutter softly, feeling that this Maid looked very familiar, just like the noble who visited Mo Family Village that day.

"Husband, don’t you think that Maid just now is the same one who last visited Mo Family Village?" Madam Ruan, unsatisfied after being scolded by Old Lady Mo, quietly asked her husband.

Mo Daoyan also whispered, "My dear, I don’t know. That day, mother did not let us enter; only she met with the noble alone."

That day, Old Lady Mo mysteriously sent them all out, alone meeting the noble in the main hall, not sharing what they discussed.

After the noble left, Old Lady Mo then told them that the noble had invited them to the Capital to seek blessings from Xuexue.

And, when the noble came, she wore a veil, preventing them from seeing her true face, hence despite Madam Ruan’s questioning, she simply couldn’t learn anything.

"I am sure that Maid is the noble."

Madam Ruan, not giving up, remembered how, on that day, the wind blew the veil off the noble’s face just as she happened to look directly.

"Stop talking; if mother hears, she will be upset again," Mo Daoyan gently tugged at Madam Ruan’s sleeve.

"I don’t understand; it’s not something shameful, why can’t we talk about it?" Madam Ruan expressed her confusion.

"It’s mother’s business; we better mind less. As long as we follow her, having food, drink, and silver to spend is enough."

Madam Ruan pouted, "That’s true. Mother-in-law is so fierce, that girl Xuexue definitely can’t compete with her."

"It’s hard to say, back in Mo Family Village, she still managed to outwit you all."

"What do you know? In Mo Family Village, she had no concerns, but in the Capital, it’s different. After all, she is the Eldest Legitimate Daughter of the General’s Mansion; she must consider her status and wouldn’t dare to do anything too outrageous," Madam Ruan analyzed meaningfully.

These reasons were explained to her by Old Lady Mo on their way here.

Thus, when Old Lady Mo created a scene, Madam Ruan wasn’t too worried.

They were certain Xuexue would consider her reputation, not daring to treat them badly.

Indeed, filial piety is highly valued in Moli Country; if Xuexue showed disrespect to her grandparents and others knew, her reputation would suffer significantly.

"Let’s hope so," Mo Daoyan nodded. He wasn’t as optimistic as Madam Ruan; ever since Xuexue’s temperament changed, appearing fearless, even he, a man, dared not confront her directly.
