Chapter 2026 Eliminating the Scum (4)

It turned out that she was just a living tablet to replace Yang. She was married to the Duke of Liguo's mansion to take care of the children of the eldest Yang and occupy the position of the eldest lady of the Duke of Liguo's mansion. In fact, she had no power at all. She didn't even have the final say on the dowry given to her. It was just temporarily in her hands and kept for Chengxun to marry a wife in the future.

Mo Zijing knew about this matter not long after marrying the young Yang. Although he hated the Yang family's behavior, he had been in love with the eldest Yang for more than ten years, and the eldest Yang died young, so he couldn't bear to blame the Yue family and had to swallow this breath. However, over the years, he has always been indifferent to the young Yang. He usually stays in the study, and only stays at the young Yang's place on the first and fifteenth day of each month, first to maintain her dignity as a wife, and second to meet physiological needs. As for the feelings that should exist between husband and wife, they disappeared as early as when he knew that she was infertile.

Although she didn't have the love and care of her husband, Yang's life in the Duke of Liguo's mansion was not difficult. The people in the Duke of Liguo's mansion were very nice. Even if they knew what the Yang family had done to her, no one made things difficult for her. Her two sisters-in-law were also easy to get along with. Among them, Mu was in charge of the household affairs of the Duke of Liguo's mansion. She and Zili's wife Huanyun didn't usually take care of things, but they never missed their share. During festivals, they could also share many good things.

With these things, she was able to support her sick parents and several young brothers very well. Therefore, even without the love of her husband, she lived a decent life, but she was not as rich and powerful as she had expected.

Mo Zili had married Huanyun two years ago. In fact, the Bai family had already decided to give Huanyun a face four or five years ago. Everyone in the mansion had always called Huanyun "Yun Yi Niang". Mo Zili didn't treat her well, but he didn't treat her badly either. At least he didn't reject her service. Two years ago, Huanyun gave birth to a daughter for him. The old lady spoke up and made her Mo Zili's wife.

Huanyun was very satisfied. From a peasant girl who had difficulty in food and clothing and could not afford three meals a day, she turned into the young lady of the Duke of Liguo's mansion. Although her husband only regarded her as someone's shadow, she didn't feel wronged.

She loved him very much, very much, and loved him to the bone, so she was willing to wait. She believed that as long as she stayed by his side and never left him, one day he would forget that person and only have herself in his heart!

No more small talk.

After Fei'er delivered the things, she was counting the days to see her brother's wife. Wu'er was also looking forward to it, wanting to see what kind of woman was worth her brother's waiting for so many years.

Wu'er was already 21 years old, a gentle and non-confrontational fat man. Although he was not the kind of fat head, big ears, and big belly, he was a little fatter than Wen'er, who was well-proportioned.

Although he was born in a wealthy family, he was unwilling to become an official. The fame he passed was just to comfort his father. In fact, he liked the same thing as his elder sister - doing business!

Since his elder sister led them to open the first shop when he was a child, he had a strong interest in business and always hoped that he could replace his sister and become the richest person in Dajin. However, she never mentioned this wish to her family.

His father always hoped that he and his brother could be appointed as officials and bring honor to the family. In Dajin, the hierarchy of people was very strict. There were scholars, farmers, merchants, and businessmen. Merchants were the lowest level of society, and ordinary officials and nobles disdained to do it. I think the reason why my family agreed to my eldest sister going out to do business was because they couldn't afford to eat.

Now, the family already has thousands of mansions and countless servants, so there is no need for him to do business to earn money to support the family. Therefore, even if he proposed to do business, his family would not agree.
