Chapter 1056: Too Thick-Skinned
Mo Xiuzhi, after all, was an unwed maiden, her face flushing crimson with shame in front of everyone, she demurely said in a low voice, "It happened these past few days."
Thinking about the matter, Mo Xiuzhi couldn’t help feeling a bit smug. If the General hadn’t been drunk, she wouldn’t have succeeded. In his haze, he even mistook her for Xuexue’s mother.
"Aiya! You shameless girl, have you no decency?" Madam Ruan was somewhat disappointed, pinching Mo Xiuzhi’s arm tightly.
"Ah...! It hurts... Mama, can you be gentler please?"
Mo Xiuzhi wriggled free from Madam Ruan’s grip and, nursing her reddened arm, said with a face full of grievance.
Her delicate and tender skin, if it were to get hurt, what if the General ends up not liking her—what then!
"You still know pain? Do you realize you’re still a maiden? Jumping into a man’s bed so quickly, who would want you in the future? What will you do with the rest of your life? Wahhh...!" The more Madam Ruan thought about it, the more sorrowful she became, and she couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Originally, the trip to the Capital was to seek a bright future for her son, but before anything could be accomplished, her daughter’s purity was compromised. Truly, it was a great loss.
Mo Xiuzhi, irritated by the noise, said: "Mama, why are you crying? My union with the General is a matter of great joy—you should be happy, not crying! Really, it’s exasperating."
"You... you... you impudent girl, have you no sense of propriety, righteousness, integrity, or honor? Not yet having received the engagement documents, you dared to climb into a man’s bed."
"It’s just the engagement documents. I’ll have the General issue them tomorrow," Mo Xiuzhi said confidently, her tone exceedingly affectionate when speaking of the General.
