Mo Beiya smiled softly and looked at his son: "Then according to what you said, do you really want to prepare a betrothal gift and marry Zhi Qing back?"
"Oh, I'm not..." He wanted to explain, but the more he explained, the more confused he became, so he simply said no more, and just said lazily: "I just want to get back together with Zhiqing, my parents know how to tease me.
,Forget it, just say what you want."
"Okay, I won't tease you anymore." Mo Beiya straightened his face: "You, if you want Zhiqing to recognize you, you must show your sincerity and let her truly feel how good you are. She
Only then will I recognize you."
He listened carefully to every word Mo Beiya said. He seemed to feel that there was a certain truth to these words. He slightly raised his eyebrows and thought thoughtfully: "Is it really possible? As long as I take out this
Sincerely, can she fully recognize me?"
"That's natural." Mo Beiya smiled and was very sure: "It just depends on whether you have the endurance. If you believe your father, just do as I say."
"Okay." Mo Beiya looked at the gloomy sky and felt a little tired: "It's getting late. Your mother and I are going back to rest first. You should go back early too."
He paused, smiled softly, and teased his son: "I see you are really interested in this girl Zhiqing. This is your first time."
"But Zhiqing is indeed a good boy, sensible and filial. If you really win her heart, tell dad that I will prepare a betrothal gift for you and marry Zhiqing home."
After Mo Beiya said this, he entered the room with Xue Wenru.
Mo Jianchen was still thinking deeply about the moonlight, standing motionless in the courtyard, thinking carefully about his father's words and how he could gain her approval.
When he came to his senses, his parents had already returned to the house. He had just reacted to what Mo Beiya said, "Dad, what are you talking about? When did I say I wanted to marry her?"
But at this moment, Mo Beiya and Xue Wenru had already entered the room, and no one would respond to his words.
He was willing to look at the dim moonlight, shook his head gently, and walked back to his room silently.
The next morning, Xue Wenru and Mo Beiya left the room early in the morning and went to study martial arts with the elders of Luanxiang Pavilion.
Mo Jianchen also got up early. For him, he had nothing to do every day. All he was looking forward to was that he could meet Du Zhiqing on this day.
After breakfast, he moved involuntarily and went to the courtyard where he threshed plums before. She often played here with Xiahou Wandai in the past few days, and he didn't know if he would be lucky enough to meet her here on this day.
When he stepped here, he did not see Du Zhiqing's figure, but found Xiahou Wandai sitting on the rocking chair. At this moment, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
Yes, although I don't know her movements, I can find out. Her relationship with Xiahou Wandai is so good, others may not know, but Xiahou Wandai will definitely know her movements.
Others haven't finished asking, but Xiahou Wandai is okay. Xiahou Wandai is young and doesn't understand love affairs, so naturally she is not afraid of any gossip coming from her.
So he walked forward and greeted Xiahou Wandai politely: "Good morning, Junior Sister Wandai."
"Morning, Senior Brother Mo." Xiahou Wandai also greeted him: "You came so early today."
"Yes." Mo Jianchen pretended to be casual and asked Xiahou Wandai, "Didn't your cousin come to play with you today?"
"Cousin? I don't know either." Xiahou Wandai shook her head, "She might come. Her whereabouts are uncertain every day. I don't know if she will come back here today."
Mo Jianchen asked again: "Zhi Qing, has she always been like this? How come you don't even know where she went?"
"Yes." Xiahou Wandai nodded, "My cousin has always had a restless temper and never stayed in one place for too long. Sometimes she would tell me where she was going, and sometimes she would tell me where she was going.
He won’t tell me either.”
Mo Jianchen further tricked her: "I haven't seen her these days. Do you know where she has been these days?"
Xiahou Wandai thought for a while, "She should have gone to practice martial arts with her aunt and cousin in the morning. In the afternoons these days, she will go to Yunshuiju on time to accompany her grandfather in painting. She told me two days ago
Already."
"Yunshui Residence? Is it the paradise at the foot of Zangmeng Mountain? Does she go to accompany the old pavilion master every afternoon?" Mo Jianchen asked again.
Xiahou Wandai nodded: "Well, she told me that she will go every afternoon these days."
Mo Jianchen's eyes rolled around, with a bit of slyness in his eyes. Not knowing what he was thinking, he asked Xiahou Wandai again seriously: "Junior Sister Wandai, you have such a good relationship with Zhiqing, do you also have a good relationship with her?"
You know what she usually likes, tell me about it."
"She..." Xiahou Wandai was about to speak, but she seemed to realize something was wrong. She turned her head and looked at Mo Jianchen with suspicious eyes: "Brother Mo, why do you inquire so much about my cousin?"
Seriously, maybe you have something else on your mind?"
"Ah... no, no, how could it be?" Seeing that she seemed to have discovered a clue, Mo Jianchen quickly covered it up: "I... I just haven't seen her for too long. I don't know what she likes now. I want to
Just asking you."
“Oh, really?”
"Oh, I see. You must have fallen in love with your cousin because you saw her beauty. You want to win her heart, right? Yes, that must be the case."
"Last time I saw that you were different towards your cousin, I just said, no wonder, no wonder, this time I understand."
"Hey, I said..." Mo Jianchen couldn't help being startled, and frowned: "You are so young, you know what love is, what are you talking about?"
Xiahou Wandai said with a smile: "I know a lot. Brother Mo, you are just pursuing your cousin. You want to win my cousin's heart. You can't deceive me."
"Alas." Mo Jianchen rolled his eyes helplessly and said: "You are really a brat. I have been with your cousin for a long time, and your temperament is becoming more and more similar to hers."
"Look at yourself, what are you talking about?" Xiahou Wandai said teasingly: "Senior Brother Mo, you see that you can't say anything without your cousin. What is your cousin if you don't care about her?"
"Oh, that's all, whatever you think." His thoughts couldn't be explained to this young girl, so he simply stopped explaining and let her guess at will. She didn't understand love affairs at a young age, even if she was with him.
No one would believe what she said.
"Okay, okay." Mo Jianchen added to the question just now: "Can you give me an answer to what I asked you just now? If you can't give it, forget it. I will ask her myself later.
"
Unexpectedly, Xiahou Wandai narrowed her eyes, "If you can really ask her yourself, do you still need to come to me?"
"You..." Mo Jianchen couldn't express his anger for a moment, but he couldn't say anything else. After all, he still had something to ask her for.
Such a tricky little girl had the same temperament as that girl at the time, so it seemed that this matter was really difficult to handle.
"Okay, I won't talk to you about this anymore." Xiahou Wandai rolled her eyes and said to her: "If you really want to find out about my cousin's preferences from me, I can't tell you in vain. You have to
Show some sincerity!"
Mo Jianchen was startled at first, and thought for a moment, then raised his head again, and agreed without hesitation: "Okay, if you are willing to tell me, I will definitely meet your request, just tell me.
Whatever you want, as long as I can do it, I will do it."
Xiahou Wandai blinked suspiciously: "Seriously, is this what you said?"
Mo Jianchen nodded and said firmly: "Seriously, there are absolutely no lies."
Mo Jianchen was waiting for her to make a request, but unexpectedly she suddenly laughed and said while smiling: "I just said that, do you really take it seriously? I am the eldest lady of Luanxiang Pavilion. I want to
If you don’t have anything, is there anything else that needs to be satisfied by Senior Brother Mo?”
"Okay, I just tried to test whether you are sincere to your cousin. Since you are so sincere, I will tell you."
"Are you kidding me? You are really as weird as that girl." Mo Jianchen's shrewd temperament was fooled by this young girl. Even he couldn't help but feel a little stupid.
.
But now all he could think about was Du Zhiqing, and he couldn't think of anything else, so he just said to Xiahou Wandai: "Okay, I've played around and tried it out, tell me your cousin's preferences quickly.
"
"Ahem." Xiahou Wandai cleared her throat and said to Mo Jianchen in a serious manner: "Then I will risk being beaten by my cousin to help you and tell her everything about him.
I told you, don’t let me down!”
"Then let me tell you, my cousin has been going to Yunshui Residence almost every afternoon to accompany grandpa these days. If you go to Yunshui Residence, you will most likely be able to find her."
"In addition, let me tell you the most important thing. My cousin's favorite thing to eat is the peach blossom cake made by Zhang Ji's shop in Muzhou City. However, the peach blossom cake at Zhang Ji's shop is not easy to buy. It is usually only available once every half month.
You can only buy it at the morning market on Lemin Street."
"My cousin never likes to get up early, and it is usually difficult to go to the morning market, so it is difficult to buy peach blossom cakes. If you can buy peach blossom cakes for your cousin, she will be overjoyed and her favor for you will double.
.”
Hearing this, Mo Jianchen's eyes lit up, "Is this true? You didn't lie to me?"
"Of course." Xiahou Wandai said calmly: "Only I know this little secret of my cousin. I lied to you like a puppy!"
