Mo Yan listened with clear understanding at first, but then beca confused, and gripping her little brother’s chubby hand, she asked, "How is it good for our family, but what good does it do for her?"
Upon hearing this, Zhenzhen gave his big sister a "you’re so silly" eye roll, "With her in this state, she won’t be able to co to our ho to cause trouble anymore, nor can she badmouth our family behind our back. Plus, she won’t be dragged into Mo Yongxi’s troubles, having to spend her old age in prison, suffering there. I heard the prison life is very tough, who knows if she’ll even survive if she goes in. Honestly, having a stroke might have actually saved her life!"
Mo Yan pondered, feeling that her brother’s analysis was quite right, she couldn’t help but pinch his plump, round face, and praised, "Going to school really makes a difference, thinking about both sides of the issue. You’ve even surpassed your big sister with such reasoning, not bad, really not bad!"
Zhenzhen, feeling sowhat affronted at being pinched in the face in public, given his self-perception as a little man, was just about to blow his top when he heard his sister’s lavish praise. His little face imdiately twisted in conflict, unsure whether to look angry or smug.
Mo Yan watched with more and more fondness, unable to resist pinching his cheeks again, laughing heartily under Zhenzhen’s accusing gaze.
The others also smiled discreetly, only Shengsheng, the youngest, felt sorry for her little brother, running to Zhenzhen and puffing her cheeks to blow on his face, saying in her gentle voice, "Little brother, don’t cry, Shengsheng will blow on it and it won’t hurt anymore!"
Zhenzhen had always liked this quiet and sensible little sister, and now she was so soothing to him, he was deeply touched. He embraced her tightly and said with a wronged tone, "Shengsheng is the best, I’ll give you all the tasty and fun things I have in the future, and protect you for life, whoever dares to bully you, I’ll beat them up to avenge you."
Zhenzhen knew that Yun Zhao and Yun Sheng had been driven from their ho by their stepmother, and he too despised that wicked woman. He also knew Yun Zhao was studying hard to earn distinction in order to return and take revenge, so he was also working hard, hoping to be able to help the siblings in the future.
Mo Yan looked at the two little ones hugging each other closely, a hint of interest flickering in her eyes: Childhood friends and sweethearts, absolutely adorable!
In the evening, when Wu’s ca back from her stall with Big Sister Dani and her siblings, carrying a basket of eggs to the Mo Family to celebrate, she grabbed Mo Yan’s hand, her expression excited, "Yan... oh, no, I should call you Princess Hejia, you’ve finally co into your own, the future is promising indeed!"
Knowing The Emperor Huian’s sches, Mo Yan really didn’t want to hear the words "Princess Hejia." Seeing Wu’s so animated, she quickly replied, "What County Lord. I only know I am Mo by surna, the ’Yan girl’ in Aunt Wu’s mouth, and that will never change!"
Seeing her attitude remained as it had always been, Wu’s showed a smile of relief and ease, but still advised, "That title is conferred by The Emperor, when you go out you still need to carry yourself with dignity, so no one can bully you."
Mo Yan knew she ant well, and not wanting to dwell on the topic of the title, she simply nodded in agreent and asked Lixiu to get so fruit cakes for the four of them to eat.
Wu’s did not refuse, gave San Ni and Shitou a piece of cake each, then forbade them from eating more, so they wouldn’t spoil their appetite for dinner.
"By the way Yan girl, there’s sothing I’d like to discuss with you!" Wu’s, after wiping the crumbs from Shitou’s face, suddenly rembered another important matter and hurriedly addressed Mo Yan.
Mo Yan smiled and said, "Aunt Wu, are you referring to the snack stall?"
Wu’s nodded vigorously, "Exactly, exactly, now our little stall’s business is getting better and better, people even co from Eastern Market and West Market especially to buy. I’ve been thinking, maybe we can open two more stalls, and expand the business to Eastern Market and West Market."
