Chapter 17 Cousins of the General's Manor
"F-father!" Mo Xueqiong's face turned white.
"Father!" Mo Xuetong bit her lip, looking as if she was forcing a smile through her hurt, but the attempt to smile paired with bloodshot eyes only made her more pitiable.
Mo Huawen glared at Mo Xueqiong, then walked over and stroked Mo Xuetong's hair tenderly.
"Tong'er how did you sleep last night?"
Mo Xuetong sniffed and tried to stiffle her sobs. She looked up and pulled on Mo Huawen's teal robe.
"I slept well, thank you. I even slept in a bit!" she said with a soft smile. "Father, don't scold Fourth Sister. She and Eldest Sister are just teaching me how to do things. They're not really bullying me!"
She had dealt with Mo Xueqiong and Mo Xuemin in one swoop.
Her words shocked Mo Xuemin. She was just about to reply when Mo Huawen's face darkened.
"Min'er, even though you are the eldest daughter in the manor, you should understand that Tong'er is my only legal child. Even if there's anythi

Genera Luo Cheng had been guarding the borders for years. He left his family in the capital. Only Luo Wenyou and Luo Wenchi, who had studied martial arts, accompanied him to the front lines. They rarely returned home.Mo Huawen had stayed in Cloud City all the while and was not close with the general's family. In her last life, Mo Xuetong had not even seen her cousin when she entered the capital. In that life, she'd been much older when she'd made it to the capital, and she'd been ashamed to let others see her disfigured face. She'd avoided even her closest relatives and friends. Every year, her cousin had sent her a present, even when the General's household had become destitute.She bowed deeply to Luo Wenyou. Her heart twinged. She was grateful that he had not given up on her in her past life, even when everyone had, and was thankful that it seemed that he loved her as much in this life.Luo Wenyou was surprised when he saw the gentle and elegant young woman.

Luo Mingzhu smiled gratefully and let go of Mo Xuetong's hand. She knew that Mo Xuetong's words had convinced their grandmother to let her meet Bai Yihao."Old Madam, although the medicine in this prescription is not very strong, you still need to avoid certain food with conflicting properties. I wrote down some to avoid. Please take this, Old Madam." His voice was like a melody flowing like spring water. Bai Yihao turned around, smiling and setting the paper in his hand to dry to the side."Thank you, Sir Bai. We've troubled you. I don't know if you can treat my granddaughter. She has been weak since childhood, and no medicine has made her better." Old Madam Xu looked at Mo Xuetong with worried eyes. Bai Yihao turned to look at the girl. Her plain clothes did not lessen her charm. Instead, they allowed her natural beauty to shine. Her crystal clear eyes were curious, but not shy.Her delicate body was weak as a flower in the wind, but there wa

Bai Yihao looked into the dark eyes of the girl in front of him. Her eyes clear as a mountain stream and she looked at him with calm determination. Nobody had ever looked at him like that.He had never thought that such a delicate young girl could even look at him so calmly. Her eyes were alert, nervous, but not hostile. He could see some helplessness and bitterness in those beautiful eyes. They were deep, bright, and sharp, completely different from her frail appearance.Yet something about those wise eyes only made her more pitiable. She was too young to carry so much weight, too calm for a child. What could have happened to make her like this?There was a hint of stubbornness in her eyes too, barely visible, but he could see it clearly. He came to a new decision in a split second. Bai Yihao smiled gently."Why do you think I will help you? A daughter of an eminent family making such an appointment with an unknown man would be bad for your reputation."

Mother Xu would not forget how Fourth Miss and First Miss had joined hands to make her mistress unhappy.Mo Xuetong smiled at Mother Xu."Mother Xu, come find me after a while." Mother Xu smiled. Even with Fourth Miss around, her mistress would come out clean. The gracious First Miss was about to get herself in trouble.Mo Xuetong brought her servants to Mo Huawen's study. The study wasn't far, only two doors. The servant outside saw her approaching and had already informed Mo Huawen.

How's your grandmother?" Mo Xuetong greeted h

Mo Xueqiong knew there was no hiding what she'd done. She began to blurt out the truth, sobbing the whole time.When she'd gone to Mo Xuetong's courtyard, Mo Xueqiong had seen Mo Xuemin making tea for Sima Lingyun. The two seemed inappropriately close, and Mo Xueqiong immediately got jealous.Without knowing anything about the situation, she went up and questioned Mo Xuemin. She'd even pushed Mo Xuemin. The two had fallen to the ground and...Mo Huawen was so angry he was practically smoking. He had always known how unruly his fourth daughter was, but he hadn't expected his eldest daughter to behave like this as well. She'd brought a man into her younger sister's courtyard, even flirted with him. Did she care about her reputation at all?"Go. Go back to your courtyards. Copy the Classics for Women thirty times. You're not allowed to leave your courtyards unless you finish. Your maids will each be beaten ten times. If they can't even look after their mistresse

It was a silent night. The moon was beautiful. The lights in Qingwei Garden were lit.Mo Xuetong leaned against the couch and watched as Mo Lan packed up her clothes for their journey tomorrow.The room was so quiet she could hear the candle flickering, sound suddenly disruptive in the dead silence of the night.Mo Lan could no longer hold in her worries."Miss, are we really going to the Temple of Atonement tomorrow? Auntie Fang went to tell your father for a reason. She must be up to something." "Eldest Sister has devised such an excellent excuse. I would look unfilial if I didn't go. Even father has agreed, so how can I not go?" Mo Xuetong tapped her long slender fingers on the couch thoughtlessly. She was thinking about the past few days.Mo Xuemin had fallen into her traps again and again since she returned to the capital. How could Mo Xuemin and Auntie Fang be willing to take that lying down? She didn't know when Mo Xuetong and Sima Lingyun
Reborn: Femme Fatale First Daughter Chapter 24 The Temple of Atonement
Mo Xuetong brought Mo Lan, Mo Yu, and two other maids sent by Auntie Fang.Shuang Ye was beautiful, while Qiu Ling was quiet and reserved. Mo Xuetong leaned against the carriage wall and closed her eyes, still exhausted from her restless night. Mo Lan was also dozing off against the window. Only Mo Yu looked energetic.The maids spoke quietly, letting their mistress sleep."Mo Yu, why is Third Miss so tired? Is she feeling ill?" Shuang Ye asked softly, looking at Mo Xuetong's pale and haggard appearance."Miss has always been weak. She was tired and had a lot to prepare for before the journey to the Temple of Atonement so she did not sleep well," Mo Yu said lightly. She already didn't trust Shuang Ye."Oh, Big sister Mo Yu..." Shuang Ye still wanted to say more, but Mo Yu waved, gesturing for her to be silent.Shuang Ye opened her mouth, and then shut again it helplessly.They did not speak for the entire way there. When they reached the bas

After dinner, Mo Xuetong was told her presence was requested in the hall beside the meditation garden, alone. The night was dark enough to make it hard to see who approached her, but it looked like a guard. They gave Mo Lan a sheet of paper with the same symbol. The paper seemed brittle and old.Mo Lan had not wanted to let Mo Xuetong go alone, but Mo Xuetong was insistant. She couldn't risk offending whoever she was meeting. She needed those guards. Mo Yu dragged Shuang Ye and Qiu Ling back to Mo Xuetong's rooms to work on their embroidery.Mo Xuetong walked the quiet path alone. In both her lives, she had always been hidden in the back courtyards. She had never gone out secretly to meet anyone in the dark night. She looked calm, but her fingers were clenched tightly and her hands were cold.The Buddhist hall was not too far away. It cast enough light to keep Mo Xuetong from getting lost, but there was no moonlight to light her way tonight. Silence filled the medi
