Chapter 101 A Night Scheme Between the Mother and her Daughter at Lihua Garden (1/2)
After dinner, Mo Xuemin heard that Mo Xuetong had wakened up. She had dinner late and had dispatched someone to pay attention to what happened at Qingwei Garden. When she heard that Mo Xuetong had wakened up, and Luo Youwen and Bai Yihao had left, she then resentfully brought Mo Xiu to Lihua Garden which belonged to Auntie Fang.
Since Mo Huawen knew Auntie Fang was pregnant, he canceled Auntie Fang's grounding. The other two concubines in the mansion brought much stuff to see her. They fawned on her and flattered her. When they were gone, Auntie Fang was still too excited to calm down. Thinking about that Mo Xuetong had pa.s.sed out and was poised between life and death, but the doctors were at their wit's end, she must be very close to death on any occasion.
She was so happy inside!
Without this little b.i.t.c.h, she would be the mistress of the mansion!
Feeling so happy, she had the supper early with the attendance of the maid and started thinking when lying in bed that if Mo Xuetong died, she would be in charge of Luo Xia's dowry. Thus she would have to choose some anyway, which she had been longing for such a long time.
After the death of Luo Xia, Auntie Fang was in charge of the accommodation of Mansion Mo actually, but it didn't contain Luo Xia's dowry. All the stuff in the dowry had been locked in Mo Huawen's little warehouse. Then they were transported to the capital, which was arranged by Mo Huawen himself. Auntie Fang didn't even have a chance to touch it.
Although Auntie Fang wasn't sure what they were, she understood that there must be plenty of great stuff. As soon as Mo Xuetong died and she got the position of the main wife, Min'er would be the first daughter of Mo Huawen, and Feng'er would be the only son in this mansion. It wouldn't matter whether she gave birth to a son or daughter next, and there would be no one in the mansion who could get in her way.
Those dowries would be in her hand at last. And by then no matter how much the old sir missed that woman and her daughter, it would mean nothing. How could anyone dead get out of the grave to struggle against her? When thinking complacently, she laughed out unconsciously under the lamp.
”What is concubine so happy for, maybe it's for Mo Xuetong's wakening up.” By the side of the opened door, the ironic expression showed on Mo Xuemin's beautiful face, which completely destroyed her fame of being kind-hearted and generous. She closed the door coldly, and derided, ”I hear that the third sister is so lucky that she wakes up now without anything wrong. You, the concubine, must still be thinking about getting the position of the main wife. As long as that girl is still alive, you don't even have a chance.”
There was not anyone else, so Mo Xuemin didn't have to pretend to be lovely or gentle. Her words were so acrimonious. She really looked down on Auntie Fang, who was the first daughter of the Yu's. Even if she had become a concubine because of her uncertain antecedents, now the main wife was dead, but she still couldn't get the positon of the main wife. As a result, she was the daughter of a concubine, and couldn't get a good marriage. Those were all the results of her status.
Now that Mo Xuetong wasn't finished off, she even dreamt of getting the position of the main wife. She had been very angry from last night till then. She had thought that Sima Lingyun was smart and faithful to her. But she realized that he was not only stupid but also fickle. When thinking of last night, when he told her to be his concubine, Mo Xuemin wanted to bite him to death.
She was not Auntie Fang, who was so happy to be a concubine.
Especially when she saw Auntie Fang's stupid smiling face, she thought if she became a concubine, she might be as foolish as her. Thus she would have no time to disguise and would reveal her dissatisfaction and anger.
Auntie Fang was always afraid of this smart eldest daughter. In front of other people, she was a lovely and gentle daughter, kind to others, and showed filial obedience to her. She was also talented and was thought of as a very famous talented woman. But in private, she was the only one who knew how ruthless and cruel she was.
Since she was little, she pretended to be dutiful and gentle in front of others. In private, she was always sarcastic. She knew that she looked down upon her for her concubine status, and she used this to satirize her everytime her could. However, angry as she was, she was still her daughter. Besides, she had to rely on her scheming to get the position of the main wife.
”That b.i.t.c.h woke up? Didn't they say she wouldn't wake up and the funeral affairs were arranged?” Auntie Fang was very sad, stopped smiling and explained.
”Concubine got the message too slowly. The message was too overdue. You heard from dad that he would give you the position of the main wife. Now a year pa.s.sed by, and father don't mention that any more. He even locked you up. I don't know how accurate your words can be.” Mo Xuemin laughed grimly, and left Auntie Fang disgraceful directly.
”Your father can't hurry about this. That b.i.t.c.h's mother had been dead for just a year or so, and your father had to wait for some time.” Auntie Fang explained and her face reddened.”
”I have only heard about a woman maintain chast.i.ty after the death of her husband, but I haven't heard that of a man keeping loyalty for a woman for three years. Auntie Fang, you're too simple and naive. Not long ago, when you framed Mo Xuetong, you didn't say it like that. So please tell me with full confidence that it must work this time. You want me to follow your words. But what did I get when I listened to your words? Concubine can't have forgotten that you nearly got me in trouble at last!”
Mo Xuemin groaned grimly. When Mo Xuetong just came, Auntie Fang confidently told her that she would take hold of Mo Huawen, and that she should hold the clothes of family ceremony and wait by the side and when Mo Xuetong exited, she could take the place.
