Dong Hui snorted heavily towards Qingxue, “You are powerful now! How can I be dissatisfied with you?”

 

Shi Qingxue looked helpless and sighed, “…Mom. How did I make you unhappy? Just say it directly. Why do you say so?”

 

“Say it directly?”

 

Dong Hui instantly seemed to get the power. She stiffened and asked coldly, “Then I’m going to ask you, are you still my daughter? Do you still obey my words?”

 

“Of course I’m your daughter.”

 

When Shi Qingxue just responded, Dong Hui got more powerful and blustered, “Then I ask you not to see Mo Junyang again, why don’t you listen to me?”

 

“I!” Qingxue didn’t expect that Dong Hui was angry about it, and she was speechless for a while.

 

But immediately she realized that something was wrong.

 

It was different at the moment. If Dong Hui felt that Mo Junyang was at odds with Shi Junhe’s position, and he might have hindered Shi Junhe’s career, so she would stop it.

 

But Mo Junyang had clearly requested the emperor to grant the marriage, and even Shi Junhe had already acquiesced. Why was Dong Hui still so fiercely opposed?

 

Unless…

 

Shi Qingxue asked Dong Hui tentatively, “Mom, did daddy tell you…”

 

Dong Hui thought Qingxue was changing the subject again, and interrupted Shi Qingxue impatiently, “What?”

 

Sure enough, he didn’t say.

 

Otherwise Dong Hui couldn’t be so calm.

 

“No, nothing.” Shi Qingxue was embarrassed to tell Dong Hui that Mo Junyang was going to marry her.

 

But Dong Hui felt that she just wanted to change the subject and coldly said, “I don’t care what you think in your heart. Anyway, today is the last time I tell you. If next time I hear someone from outside gossip about you and Mo Junyang, don’t say I’m your mom!”

 

“Mom!” Qingxue exclaimed, full of surprise.

 

She didn’t understand. Why would Dong Hui hate Mo Junyang to such a degree?

 

Mo Junyang did behave somewhat indifferently and ruthlessly, even cold-blooded, and didn’t have a pleasant character. But Dong Hui shouldn’t be like this just for his status.

 

Shi Qingxue frowned. When good fortune came, her mind was clear. She hurriedly asked, “Did someone tell you something? Junyang…”

 

“You should call him His Excellency Mo!” Dong Hui forcibly interrupted Shi Qingxue’s question and kept trying to make a clean break between them.

 

Dong Hui didn’t explain too much. She just made a conclusion, “In short, he and us are not in the same way. You are not allowed to get close to him.”

 

Shi Qingxue paused and asked, “Then do you think who is on the same way with us?”

 

“The fourth prince…” Dong Hui hesitated, but quickly looked at Qingxue firmly.

 

She highly praised, “He is good. His character and appearance, family background and talent are not inferior to other princes. Your grandmother admires him very much, and your Third Aunt uses all the relationship, hoping that her daughter can marry him…”

 

After hearing this, Shi Qingxue finally understood why Dong Hui changed her attitude.

 

It turned out that she was still competing with Zhou Ruyu.

 

Mo Junjiu had failed. His power was basically shared by the Crown Prince and the fourth prince. Mo Junhao had become the strongest force among the powers who want to be the emperor.

 

Zhou Ruyu wanted to find a good husband for Shi Baoyou, but she wasn’t qualified to be Crown Prince’s wife. So she began to think about being the fourth prince’s wife.

 

Shi Qingxue had predicted such a result before. But she really couldn’t understand why Dong Hui tried hard to let her and Mo Junhao get together again and again.

 

“Mom!” Shi Qingxue shouted in a deep voice.

 

She looked at Dong Hui seriously, and emphasized again by saying word by word, “I said, I don’t like Mo Junhao and we are impossible!”

 

Dong Hui looked awkward when her purpose was found out. She forcibly said, “Then I also tell you, I will never allow you to be with Mo Junyang.

 

Shi Qingxue, “…” According to the current situation, Dong Hui couldn’t decide it.

 

Qingxue curled her lips. She didn’t want to irritate Dong Hui, but seriously pointed out, “Since you don’t want me to be with Mo Junyang, you have to give a decent reason! You can’t deny the man I love by just one sentence!”

 

At this moment, she did not deny her love for Mo Junyang.

 

Dong Hui might also feel Qingxue’s seriousness and perseverance. However, when she arranged a blind date for her before, she still obeyed.

 

But so many things happened later. Those things that Mo Junyang did for Qingxue were clear to all.

 

Not to mention that Shi Qingxue would be touched, even she herself…

 

“Well!” Dong Hui sighed heavily, and finally decided to tell the truth, “I don’t allow you to be with Mo Junyang because his identity is too troublesome and there are endless troubles. I don’t want my daughter to spend the rest of her life in a place full of conflicts and deceit!

 

Qingxue, can’t you think about my worries? I will definitely not harm you!”

 

Shi Qingxue was shocked and took a big step back, staring at Dong Hui in disbelief, and asked in surprise, “What troublesome status? Mom, what do you know?”

 

Wasn’t it…that thing she knew?

 

“Don’t ask!” Dong Hui reflexively said.

 

She immediately realized that Shi Qingxue would definitely not be dismissed by such words, so she had to tell the truth, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you. It is just because I heard it secretly from your grandmother. I am not clear about the details, either.”

 

It turned out that Dong Hui went to the Shou’an Hall to pay respects to Mo Shujun one day. At that time, she didn’t know what had happened, and there was no one in the courtyard. So she went to Mo Shujun’s bedroom alone.

 

When she walked to the door, she heard Mo Shujun talking with others, a voice she had never heard. She heard, “It’s okay if Qingxue hooks up with Mo Junyang. His identity will bring him trouble sooner or later. In this case, Shi Baoyou can have the fourth prince.”

 

Dong Hui didn’t hear it very clearly. She was also so panicked when suddenly hearing such a private conversation. She left the Shou’an Hall without carefully thinking about it. But she still learned a very important thing–couldn’t marry Mo Junyang!

 

“Qingxue, I can allow you to do anything you want before. But marriage is related to a woman’s whole life! You must not be fool. Just listen to me, okay?”

 

Seeing that her orders didn’t work, Dong Hui wanted to persuade her gently. There was no easier way to persuade Shi Qingxue with both threats and pleading.

 

When Shi Qingxue heard what Dong Hui said, she breathed a sigh of relief.

 

Fortunately, the information that Dong Hui knew was not complete. Otherwise, once such words were spread out, Mo Junyang would probably have more trouble.

 

“Mom, you also know that you didn’t hear it clearly. So how can you judge Junyang to be a bad person just by those words?” Shi Qingxue also said in a gentle voice, trying to persuade Dong Hui.

 

Dong Hui snorted, “Anyway, your grandmother has said that it was not a good thing!”

 

“Then how do you know that she didn’t lie to you?” Shi Qingxue asked her.

 

“How is it possible?” Dong Hui thought that Qingxue was joking. “She didn’t know I was outside at the time?”

 

Shi Qingxue was expressionless and even smiled, “How can you be sure that she didn’t know? At that time, you didn’t hear clearly who the other person in the room was, did you?”

 

Ever since Dong Hui said that there was no servant in the Shou’an Hall, Qingxue suspected it was a trap.

 

It might make sense for others, but for Mo Shujun, who was followed by lots of maids all the time, how could she allow servants of the Shou’an Hall to neglect their duties?

 

Moreover, every servant didn’t work at that time. This was simply because someone deliberately wanted Dong Hui to break in without knowing it, and the purpose was to let her hear the conversation.

 

“Really…?” Dong Hui still denied, but she was not that sure.

 

But on second thought, she said firmly, “Even if your grandmother said it on purpose, she must have heard something. If Mo Junyang is really that good, why did your grandmother speak ill of him?”

 

Shi Qingxue didn’t expect Dong Hui to be so stubborn. She said anxiously, “Of course she doesn’t want me to marry Junyang!”

 

“…” Dong Hui lowered her head and thought for a moment, and believed what Qingxue said gradually. However, after a while, when she raised her head again, the expression in her eyes changed again.

 

Indifferent and firm.

 

“No, it’s better to be careful about this kind of thing,” Dong Hui directly asserted.

 

She thought she was considerate and persuaded Qingxue with all her heart, “Qingxue, in this world, marrying a good man is really too important. It is related to your whole life, and love is definitely not enough.

 

If you don’t know about it clearly, you will only suffer after you get married. Just like me. Isn’t what I suffered not enough to alert you?”

 

Shi Qingxue, “…”

 

She kept silent for a while, then suddenly raised her head and asked, “If you knew that the situation of the Duke Shi’s family was like this, and even knew that you would suffer, would you not marry my dad?”

 

“I…” Dong Hui was stunned and speechless by such a sharp question.

 

Shi Qingxue waited for a while, and saw that Dong Hui only looked at her with an expressionless face without speaking. She was clear.

 

She smiled slowly, and said gently, “Since you can accept all of this, how do you know I can’t accept?”

 

Dong Hui was completely speechless!

 

It was true. Even she knew and suffered the humiliation and trouble brought by Mo Shujun and the Third Master’s Family, she never regretted marrying Shi Junhe from beginning to end.

 

In this way, how could she stop Shi Qingxue?

 

Dong Hui was ashamed. But due to her commanding appearance as a mother, she still said toughly, “This is different! Mo Junyang is different from your father. Your father loves me and treats me well, and even for me…”

 

Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but blurt out, “If it were Mo Junyang, Shi Baoyan would never be born!”

 

Dong Hui suddenly became mute. Her face flushed, and she began to tremble.

 

“Mom!” Qingxue’s tough attitude suddenly softened again.

 

She didn’t dare to irritate Dong Hui again. She squatted in front of Dong Hui, and cautiously admitted her mistake, “Mom, I didn’t mean that. I just want to tell you that Mo Junyang is the person I want to marry, this life…”

 

Qingxue took a deep breath, her delicate little face showed a solemn expression, and she said word by word, “In this life, I will only marry him.

 

Mom, please, please allow us to get married!”

 

After all, Dong Hui loved her daughter. Hearing Qingxue begging her like this, even if she still had concerns in her heart, she just stroked Qingxue’s small face lovingly.

 

She smiled slightly and sighed, “You are my most beloved daughter. Since you have begged me like this, how can I refuse?”

 

Shi Qingxue’s beautiful face suddenly got a happy smile. She was so delighted and laughed, “Mom, mom! You are the best mom! I love you most!”

 

Dong Hui was amused by Qingxue’s sweet words. She stroked her delicate nose and teased, “Well, you just argued with me. Now as soon as I agreed, I become the best mom?”

 

Shi Qingxue was embarrassed. She scratched her head with her small hand, and looked around with her big eyes. Then she said in embarrassment, “Mom, why do you always rake up my fault?”

 

Dong Hui laughed, and was about to tease again.

 

But Mammy Zheng rushed in in a hurry, with an anxious and serious expression on her face, “Madam, bad news!”

 

Dong Hui frowned unhappily, and reprimanded her in a low voice, “Zheng, tell me slowly. Don’t forget the manners!”

 

“Madam, it’s really a big deal this time. The princess royal, together with people of the Second Master’s Family and Third Master’s Family is rushing to the East House angrily. They want to condemn you!” Mammy Zheng hurriedly said this terrifying news.
