Chapter 1618 Staying at Shen Mansion (3)

"Capital, the Mo family?" Shen Zhixian asked in surprise: "Is the young master a member of the Liguo Palace?"

"Exactly!" Mo Zili said calmly.

"Oh, he turns out to be the young master of the Mo family. How disrespectful and disrespectful!"

Magistrate Shen quickly stood up and said to Mo Zili politely and respectfully: "I didn't know that Mr. Li was here. I was so negligent just now. I hope Mr. Li won't blame me!"

Mo Zili was born in Duke Li Guo's palace and had long been accustomed to other people's respect and flattery. When he saw Magistrate Shen acting like this, he bowed and often said: "I am a white person, so I dare not accept Master Shen's courtesy. Master Shen is so polite." Yes."

When County Magistrate Shen didn't know Mo Zili's identity, he wanted to reward him with a hundred taels of silver and send him away. But now that he knows Mo Zili's identity, he absolutely cannot reward him with a hundred taels of silver. .

Just when he was wondering how to reward him, he suddenly saw the baggage he was carrying, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he said: "I dare to ask Mr. Li, but you just arrived in Qingxian today? If you don't mind, please come to Humble House Xiao Stay for a few days so that I can fulfill my duties as a landlord!"

Mo Zili did not refuse, but cupped his hands and said, "That's it, I'm bothering Mr. Shen!"

When Shen Zhixian's wife saw that her husband had brought Mo Zili back and settled him in her backyard, she didn't say anything in front of Mo Zili. When she went to bed at night, she couldn't help complaining to Shen Zhixian: "We still have You are a daughter who is waiting to be married. You brought a man home and lived in the backyard. What's going on if people hear about it?"

Magistrate Shen said: "Young Master Li is the direct son of Duke Li of the State, and his status is very valuable. When he comes to our territory, why don't we treat him well and fulfill our friendship as landlords? Besides, Young Master Li saved us." Daughter, we should always repay others in return!"

Mrs. Cui said: "Humph, who knows what your plans are? Let me tell you, don't think about giving my daughter to Mr. Li from the Hou Men's mansion. I only have one child, and I can't bear to get married. Yes, I will have to recruit a son-in-law to take care of me in the future!"

This sentence can be said to be the heartfelt words of Mrs. Shen. Magistrate Shen was drugged by Aunt Yan and has no ability to have children. The couple only has one daughter, Juhua, and they will still count on her to provide for her in the future!

After hearing what his wife said, Magistrate Shen hurriedly comforted her and said: "Madam, don't worry, what kind of family background does the Duke of Liguo have? How can he look down on people from a small family like us? Even if we take the initiative to marry our daughter to this family, They won't want it either. I just want to entertain Mr. Li. Firstly, I can fulfill my friendship as a landlord, and secondly, I can repay his kindness for saving our daughter. Madam, don't think too much!"

After hearing what Zhixian Shen said, Mrs. Cui was relieved, but she was very dissatisfied that Zhixian Shen looked down upon himself and said that his daughter was not worthy of Mo Zili. She snorted and said, "Why don't you have a good family background?" Secondly, our empress is still the daughter of a scholar family, so isn’t she also the mother of our Kingdom of Jin? Speaking of which, our daughter is of a higher origin than Empress Mu!"

"Yes, yes, madam is right, our daughter is of high birth and is worthy of the Emperor..."

Magistrate Shen didn't dare to be harsh with his wife, so he said a lot of nice things to her and coaxed her to sleep...

Mo Zili settled down in the Shen Mansion. He originally said he was going out to enjoy the mountains and rivers and travel around. However, after settling in the Shen Mansion, he rarely went out. He spent most of his time staying in the house, or reading a book. , or dance with the sword, and occasionally play the piano and draw.

During this period, Juhua was kept at home by Mrs. Cui and she was not allowed to go out casually. Juhua was so bored that she went to play in her back garden. As a result, she met Mo Zili in the back garden.
