Chapter 213: Entertaining Guests with a Warm House, Buying Cattle and Horses (6)_1
"Hmm, then Qingze will head back first,"
Hearing his second uncle’s agreement, Mo Qingze calmly said, ready to leave as he cupped his hands towards Old Man Mo. Whether the second uncle’s family came or not had become meaningless to his own family; their absence would simply mean less entertainment for the villagers to watch.
"Old man, are you really going to suck up to them? You go if you want, but I surely don’t want to see that pack of ungrateful wolves looking all smug,"
Mo Hong’s family spat out bitterly, as if her attending could actually add any significance to the Mo Family Leader’s face.
Old Man Mo’s face darkened as he looked at her and said coldly, "It’s best if you don’t go, to save me the embarrassment."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Hong was so angry that she threw her head back and cursed Old Man Mo.
But Old Man Mo was no longer the silent and naively honest man he had been in Mo Family Village; he simply ignored Mrs. Hong’s cursing and had already decided in his heart to take this opportunity to patch things up with Mo Qingze.
"Mom, just hold back a few words," Mo Yonglu persuaded Mrs. Hong, "If we don’t go, people in the village will just think we’re too ashamed to show up."
Old Man Mo looked at Mrs. Hong, whose face was turning stiff, and snorted coldly, "Even the child is better than you. Save face? What face do you have left to give them? You should hear what those people in the village are saying about Lao Mo’s house."
After speaking, he didn’t glance at Mrs. Hong’s increasingly ugly expression and strode into the house with a flick of his sleeve.
