Chapter 138: The Visit from Her Family
Translator: Lonelytree
For Mo Li, her focus was still on her studies. She only stayed on set for 2 days before she returned to school.
As an astute businesswoman, Nie Li posted the video of Mo Li saving Su He onto the internet. Cai Wei didn’t object to this, after all, it would help promote Lady in the Snow.
...
“Grandma, I brought ho so water chestnuts. I rember there are so winter bamboo shoots and hams in the fridge, let’s make so dumplings for dinner!” Mo Li said as she walked into the front door. Then she saw her whole imdiate family, including Mo Zheng were sitting there in the living room in perfect order. All eyes turned towards her. The only ones missing were Old Madam Mo and Ol’ Two.
Old Madam Mo was busy cooking in the kitchen. When she heard Mo Li, she imdiately walked out to welco her granddaughter with a smile. “Our sweetie is finally ho. These water chestnuts are so fresh. Okay, we’ll make so dumplings.”
“Mom, let help you...” Mo Yi stood up to help but Old Madam Mo ignored him, turned around and strode back into the kitchen, leaving him stranded.
“Li Li, mom has brought so changes of clothes for you. See if you like them.” Jiang Yao watched his daughter closely as if waiting for her approval. When Mo Li nodded, Jiang Yao finally sighed in relief.
Mo Yi and Jiang Yao heard from Mo Yun that Mo Li was reluctant to move back ho. Elder Mo as well as Old Madam Mo also refused to let the girl move away either. Therefore, other than Ol’ Two who was abroad for work, the rest of the Mo Family had turned up at Elder Mo’s place.
Mo Yu looked at the unsettled and anxious Mo Family.?What if Mo Li is forced back ho by her family and then bullied? And that Mo Zheng... he has been staring at Mo Li but he hasn’t said a word.?
He has done so many bad things to Mo Li. Who knows if he still holds a grudge or not...?Mo Yu had made up his mind then, no matter what, he was going to stop them from taking Mo Li ho!
Mo Yi and Jiang Yao had been trying to have a discussion with Elder Mo about bringing Mo Li ho but the cunning senior had been changing the topic on them. He refused to allow them the chance to talk about Mo Li’s possible move ho.
On Mo Li’s part, she already knew the truth when she saw her imdiate family turn up at the old residence. They probably were there to persuade her to go ho but were too embarrassed to talk openly about it.
Old Madam Mo actually was still kind to Mo Yi and his family. Even though she didn’t have much to say to them, she still cooked a scrumptious dinner to serve them. Elder Mo told Mo Yi’s family to join them for dinner.
The atmosphere at the dining table was so awkward. Mo Yi and Mo Yun shared a look but in the end, neither said anything.
Mo Zheng had many things on his mind and he couldn’t bring himself to even have a single bite.
Mo Li glanced at the freshly wrapped dumplings and picked out around 20 of them. She fired up a wok and dropped a pork lard inside it. The oil lted and coated the wok.
When the temperature was right, Mo Li grabbed so spring onion and tossed them into the wok. The sizzling sound instantly caught everyone’s attention. Even Mo Zheng raised his head from the fragrant sll.
Mo Yi and Jiang Yao were shocked.?When did Mo Li learn how to cook?!
Old Madam Mo seed to read their thoughts as she comnted casually, “When a person is abandoned to fend for herself, she’ll naturally pick up so useful skills. After all, she has no one to rely on but herself.”
Hearing that, everyone present felt ashad.
Mo Yi and Jiang Yao were ashad because they had neglected Mo Li for so long; Mo Yun was ashad because even though he had had so many dishes made by Mo Li, he never realized how grown and sensible Mo Li had beco, she had even learned to take care of her family.
