Chapter 166 The Real Mo Family (Part )
Thinking of the story that followed and hearing Cheng Jinchu's guess, Shen Jinyi nodded helplessly. She had heard a lot of things about her grandfather, mostly nice things. So, when she heard such a story for the first time, she actually found it hard to accept it. It can be said that a tall image of him completely collapsed in her heart.
&34;My sister was right. I was just a greedy person who wanted everything. At first, I liked those who were pure, kind and gentle. But after a long time, I slowly found that living a life that was too dull was like staying in a stagnant pool. Until I met someone with a completely different personality, I was firmly attracted to him.
The most ridiculous thing is that he thought he had hidden it well, and he also thought that these dirty things would never be exposed. Unfortunately, he thought so, but there were always people who were more greedy than him and were eager to get the identity of Mrs. Mo. &34;
Cheng Jinchu smiled faintly.
&34;If my guess is correct, Qin Wanru wants to take advantage of her pregnancy to get promoted, right? I have always been curious about why the eldest son is also the legitimate son, and this eldest son is not a useless person like a straw bag, and he is even still alive. But now the head of the Mo family is Mr. Mo's illegitimate son. This is really strange! &34;
"Yes, this happened after they got married. On the second day after their wedding, when they were supposed to offer tea to the elders at home, Qin Wanru showed up holding a two-year-old child, and her belly was slightly bulging. She was already more than six months pregnant. She came to ask my great grandfather to make the decision and keep them and their child as my grandfather's concubines."
When Cheng Jinchu heard this, he couldn't help but smile sarcastically.
&34;What a nice way of speaking, what kind of concubine? She clearly knew Miss Ji's temper and knew that she would not tolerate such a thing. &34;
Shen Jinyi sighed softly.
"Ms. Ji was of course not one to tolerate such a thing, especially since she had just gotten married and it happened. Qin Wanru's belly looked like she was about to give birth, and the older child was already two years old. Her grandfather had betrayed him for so long, yet he still married her as if nothing had happened. He even knelt down with Qin Wanru to beg her to be more magnanimous when she came to ask for a legitimate marriage.
In short, after that, Miss Ji was determined to divorce, but her grandfather disagreed, and they argued for a long time. Although Miss Ji looked gentle, she was very ruthless and decisive in doing things.
After that, my grandfather was never able to step into her yard again. However, two months later, Miss Ji fainted and found out that she was pregnant. She conceived on the wedding night. That child was the second son who later became the head of the family. He was the true legitimate son.
As for the eldest son, in order to win back his wife's heart, my grandfather directly invited people from the clan to announce that even if he was the only son left in his branch, he would not be qualified to inherit the position of the head of the Mo family. Moreover, outsiders did not know that the eldest son was not even included in the family tree.
Of course, this matter must not be spread to outsiders, so those who are not in the know think that the eldest son is interested in the imperial examination. The fact is that he cannot be the head of the family. The best thing he can do is to take the imperial examination. With the help of the Mo family, he can get an official position even if he spends money. &34;
Orange's focus from then on was on eating. When Shen Jinyi said this, it had just finished eating all the cakes on the table. Satisfied, it took a few sips of tea with a straw to get rid of the greasiness. After burping, it interrupted.
&34;The eldest son is going back to Pingcheng soon. He has been ordered to be transferred to be the new county magistrate of Pingcheng. &34;
This is new news. Although Shen Jinyi has memories of the Mo family's past, she has no memory of the subsequent events of the Mo family after she returned to the Shen Mansion in her previous life. Moreover, when she started to investigate the affairs of the Mo family in her previous life, her uncle had not returned to Pingcheng yet.
&34;This is not a particularly good thing for us! &34;
Shen Jinyi frowned when he heard the news, and Cheng Jinchu asked in confusion.
"Why? What else happened?"
Shen Jinyi's face didn't look very good. She bit her lip and looked very worried.
"Sister, is father very busy recently?"
Cheng Jinchu remembered that Shen Yun seemed to be away from home often recently. He also mentioned that he had a lot of things to do recently, and he was so busy with the fire that he didn't have time to find out what happened. This was not right. Shen Yun was a very careful person. He should know something about such a big event in the imperial capital.
&34;He has been very busy recently. Do you know what he is busy with? &34;
Shen Jinyi nodded and then shook her head. Cheng Jinchu didn't understand what she meant, so Shen Jinyi hurried to explain.
&34;I just heard Chengzi say that news, and I guessed that he should be busy with Mo Xiang's matter. Oh, sister, you should know that Mo Xiang is the eldest son.
It's really speechless. My grandfather named her Xiang at first. Qin Wanru was happy to see that it was Xiang, which means enjoyment. But when she even called her surname,... Oh~ She really boasted of her deep affection and thought that doing so would make Miss Ji happier. &34;
&34;So, your father...&34;
Cheng Jinchu could guess some of it, but he didn't say it out loud and waited for Shen Jinyi to continue.
"I will talk about my father's affairs later. Now that something like this has happened, I believe my father can handle it. Let me tell you everything about the Mo family first.
What I am going to tell you next may surprise you. If I want to explain this matter clearly, I have to explain the relationships between the characters in the Mo family in detail again.
My grandfather had three sons and two daughters in his life.
The eldest son and the second son were legitimate, and the eldest son was nominally legitimate. Except for the head of the Mo family, my grandfather's grandfather, my grandfather, and Miss Ji, no one else knew about this.
The youngest son was included in the family tree and recorded under the name of the concubine, so he was born out of wedlock.
He has two daughters, and one of them is rumored to be an adopted daughter, but in fact she is also his biological daughter.
Now, here comes the main point I want to say. In fact, among these children, both the eldest son Mo Xiang and the illegitimate son Mo Sheng are sons of Qin Wanru. I just mentioned Mo Xiang's name, and as for Mo Sheng, it also means literally. He just hopes that he had not been born.
The last child was conceived by Qin Wanru due to her grandfather's conspiracy. After all, since she gave birth to her daughter Mo Junyao, she never waited for her grandfather to spend the night at her place again.
After Qin Wanru gave birth to a daughter, she had a hard time in the Mo Mansion because her grandfather hated her. I don’t know what happened in the meantime, but soon she entered the palace and became a maid.
As for the second legitimate son, he is the only legitimate son in the family tree. His name Mo Yichen was given by Miss Ji, and he is also Miss Ji's son.
As for my mother, Mo Liyang, the so-called adopted daughter of the Mo family, you know that she is my grandfather's biological daughter, but you don't know that she is not Qin Wanru's biological daughter, but Miss Ji's biological daughter. Miss Ji is my real grandmother, and my mother was conceived under the coercion of my grandfather. &34;
When she said this, Shen Jinyi became a little excited. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, sniffed, and after looking at Cheng Jinchu again, she quickly turned her head away. After a long while, she took out a handkerchief, gently wiped her face, and then turned her head back.
