Princess Mo’s birthday was celebrated with great pomp.
Since it was her first birthday in the Yu Family, her in-laws placed significant importance on it.
Yu Jinggang was responsible for welcoming the guests, while Ms. Xing ngzheng spared no effort to tailor a fitting gown for Mo Shu.
Even though Mo Shu was pregnant, she still needed to maintain her social engagents and make frequent appearances.
On the day of her birthday, Xing ngzheng and her group of sisters were all very happy, and Mo Shu, with her big belly, joyfully took on the role of the birthday star.
Mo Shu had not invited many people herself, only Qin An, Xiao Yuanzi, Gu Wenjuan, and a few other Mo Shang students she had recently taken a liking to and planned to cultivate.
Besides them, the guests were mostly people with so familial or relational ties.
Gu Wenjuan received an invitation, and because of this invitation, her status in front of Wei Yuanren rose considerably.
After all, the Wei Family had received only one invitation, and naturally, it would be given to soone the Wei Family valued highly.
Since it was a younger generation’s birthday, the Wei Family patriarch naturally would not attend; analyzing from all aspects, the most likely person to appear at the birthday banquet was Wei Yuantong.
And as expected, he did show up that day.
Wei Yuanren and Wei Yuantong’s unexpected eting resulted in nothing more than a shared smile, and then they chatted with each other like any other siblings.
Wei Yuantong, "I didn’t expect you to co too. Honestly, clinging onto a woman’s coattails doesn’t seem too bad, does it?"
Wei Yuanren laughed heartily, "Don’t be so smug. It’s just that the old man favors you for now, but how long do you think you can keep that up?"
The smile on Wei Yuantong’s face remained beautiful, "As long as you’re alive, I’ll always have a reason to be smug. Hmm, be careful with your lover. She managed to offend Princess Mo once, she could do it a second ti."
Wei Yuanren replied cheerfully, "You should look after yourself, my dear sister."
"You too, my dear big brother."
Both of their faces held smiles, and if Gu Wenjuan hadn’t been watching them talk, she would never have guessed that their expressions concealed such intriguing content in their words.
After Wei Yuantong left, Wei Yuanren asked, "Do you know her?"
Gu Wenjuan, startled, replied, "I’ve t her, she ca to ..."
"What did she say to you?"
"She ca to inquire about the child," Gu Wenjuan looked down and said softly, "I don’t know what she’s planning."
Wei Yuanren felt sowhat relieved upon hearing this and scoffed coldly, "What else could she want? Just to see whether I can give birth to the Wei Family’s first grandson or not. She doesn’t think about whether it matters to her if I can. She’s a loss-maker and will be married off sooner or later. No matter how much the old man values her, he’s not likely to leave the inheritance to her."
Gu Wenjuan couldn’t stand to listen to such talk. She placed her hand on her stomach and whispered, "Princess Mo is also a girl, and she has taken quite a bit of the Mo Family’s inheritance."
"Can the Wei Family be compared to the Mo Family? The Wei Family has many mbers; the Mo Family has so few," Wei Yuanren said, also sowhat envious, "This Princess Mo is really lucky, born into such a family. Otherwise, do you think, with her looks, she would have married Young Master Yu?"
Gu Wenjuan bit her lower lip, "Yes..."
Wei Yuanren knew he had said too much. After looking around to make sure no one overheard, he cautioned, "Don’t let these words slip outside, understand?"
