Chapter 1608: Chapter 1608: Mo Shaoxing
Xuexue nodded, “Hmm.”
By timing, Mo Xiuzhi has been pregnant for about four months, her belly should be showing, right? However, ever since they returned, there hasn’t been any news about it, nor have they seen Mo Xiuzhi.
Xuexue stood up and walked outside.
Zi Xia closely followed behind, she also wanted to see what the famous Mo Shaoxing was actually like.
Main hall.
Madam Xie sat and chatted with Mo Shaoxing, with nothing more than pleasantries.
Mo Shaoxing was dressed as a scholar, wearing ink-colored clothes, his black hair neatly tied into a hairbun, wrapped in a delicate white jade hair crown. His face was delicate, not very fair-skinned, but among the Nong family, it was quite prominent. His slender and clean hands occasionally picked up the teacup to sip, making him seem gentle and cultured.
“Mother.”
Xuexue was wearing a white floor-length smoky plum blossom hundred-layered skirt, over it a fine moon satin embroidered magnolia butterfly cloak. Beneath, a light pink brocade corset, sleeves embroidered with exquisite gold-threaded butterflies, fringed with a few strands of lace on the front. Skirt hem thin and as clear mist pouring fine silk. She wore a belt around her waist, giving her a noble and graceful deanor. A jadelike pendant added an elegant touch, her ears adorned with silver butterfly eardrops, her black hair pinned with a silver hairpin, spun into an exquisite willow leaf hairpin. Delicately arched eyebrows, cherry lips unpainted yet crimson, emitting a fragrant scent of orchids. She appeared noble and ethereal, like an incomparable beauty, a fairy walking among mortals.
Madam Xie looked up and smiled, “Xuexue, Young Master Mo from the Village Chief’s House has co to visit us.”
Xuexue said indifferently, “Young Master Mo, long ti no see. I heard you passed the Juren, congratulations.”
Mo Shaoxing, upon seeing Xuexue, his eyes lit up briefly, then dimd. No matter how stunning this woman was, she was no longer related to him. She had married, and her husband was the famously feared War Prince. Courting her would amount to courting death.
“Commoner greets madam.” Mo Shaoxing bowed to Xuexue.
Unexpectedly, compared to the other villagers, Mo Shaoxing was much more courteous.
Xuexue: “We’re all from the sa village, no need for such formalities.”
Mo Shaoxing: “On the contrary, on the contrary, as the saying goes, etiquette cannot be abandoned.”
Learning makes one’s speech pompous; Xuexue was too lazy to be overly polite with him. The more courteous, the more pretentious.
Xuexue got straight to the point, “Young Master Mo, what brings you here?”
Mo Shaoxing’s deanor beca sowhat hesitant.
“What’s the matter?”
“That…, uh…!”
Mo Shaoxing mumbled, occasionally glancing at Madam Xie with nervous eyes.
Since Madam Xie’s trip to the Capital, she had beco much smarter. She stood up, “You two chat, I’ll go outside to cook, Young Master Mo, stay and have a al before you leave.”
“Eh, alright!” Mo Shaoxing replied absentmindedly.
Madam Xie turned and walked out.
Xuexue: “Go ahead, what’s the matter?”
Mo Shaoxing bowed his head, speaking very softly, “Have you heard about Xiuzhi?”
“What? What did you say?”
Actually, Xuexue had already heard; she did it deliberately. This man slept with soone and didn’t want to take responsibility, and she was quite repulsed. But Xiuzhi wasn’t a good person either. Anyway, she didn’t like either of them.
