Chapter 226 - Father Mo’s Plans Foiled As He Tries To Advance His Studies (1)_1
As the voice fell, the originally noisy hall gradually quieted down.
Lizhong was taken aback by Mo Erni’s sudden question, and before he had thought of a good response, Mo Erni innocently continued, "I’m sorry, Grandfather Li, but back in Mo Family Village, Erni never saw you before and truly doesn’t know what your relationship with Uncle Tang’s house is. However, since Uncle Tang has given the new house to your family to live in, you must be very close relatives."
At first glance, there seemed to be nothing wrong with these words, but upon further reflection, if they were such close relatives, how could it be possible that they hadn’t seen each other for over a decade?
Everyone looked at Lizhong unanimously, then at Mo Qingze, whose complexion wasn’t looking too good, and they were all puzzled.
When the Mo Family used to live in the city, they stayed together with the Li Family. Everyone thought it was to share the rent, but now the Mo Family had moved into a new house, and the Li Family had also moved in, which was unusual.
Mo Yonglu, who was sitting at the next table, realized as soon as he heard it that his daughter wasn’t just asking out of temporary curiosity, and remembering her previous actions, his heart skipped a beat; he shouted, "Erni, sit down and eat your meal."
Mo Erni glanced at her father disdainfully, though verbally she muttered, "It’s not a secret; why can’t I ask."
"You..." Mo Yonglu was choked up, but no matter what his daughter was scheming, he had to stop her now, "You’ve grown up, and you don’t even listen to your father anymore, is that it?"
Mo Erni glared at Mo Yonglu with hatred. How could she have such a useless father who wouldn’t help her and even dragged her down! But with so many people around, if she defied her father, it wouldn’t do her any good. With that thought, her prejudice against her father deepened.
Old Man Mo, oblivious to everything around him, casually ate his meal. This granddaughter, who had never been a concern to him, actually had such thoughts. But what of it? If she succeeded... then she would be the great hero of Lao Mo’s House.
