"I guess Madam Mo must have seen through Lord Mo's true colors. He probably felt that marrying a military commander's daughter whom he disliked as his legal wife would be ridiculed by those scholars, so he wanted to stimulate your mother by favoring Aunt Meng.

If your mother makes a scene, he can use the excuse that she is jealous and divorce her. Lin Qiuer rolled her eyes and continued to speculate.

"Look at your two brothers' names, Mo Yanxiu and Mo Yanzhi. The character 'Yan' is followed by 'Xiu' and 'Zhi' respectively, so together they form 'Xiuzhi'.

Maybe Aunt Lian Meng is a pawn in Lord Mo's plan. As long as he gets rid of your mother, a concubine without a title, he can do whatever he wants with her. "

Mo Yanxiu was stunned when he heard this. The chopsticks in his hand fell onto the table with a "click", splashing the soup all over him, but he was completely unaware.

The two brothers Lin Nanyue and Lin Nanye were originally listening to the conversation between Lin Qiuer and Mo Yanxiu while eating, treating it as gossip to go with the meal. They did not expect that Lin Qiuer would come to such a shocking conclusion in the end.

Gu Anqing looked at Mo Yanxiu's reaction of "the sky has fallen" and felt that the situation in which he was sent to Linggao by his own mother and left unattended was simply insignificant compared to the young man in front of him.

Mo Yanxiu was in a state of confusion at this moment. He originally thought that his father favored his younger brother just because he favored Aunt Meng. But now someone told him that his father was actually a heartless and ungrateful person.

He became the Tongzhi of Linzhou with the help of his grandfather's connections, but he still tried every means to divorce his mother, and might even not let his beloved concubine go.

If this is true, is my father still a human being? He is simply a complete scumbag.

"Don't talk nonsense. My father is not that kind of person."

Mo Yanxiu still refused to give up and defended his father, but his voice was so weak that even he felt he lacked confidence.

Everyone present looked at him with sympathy. Mo Yanxiu felt as if his brain had been hit hard by something and was buzzing.

"I'm just guessing. Maybe the truth isn't that bad." Lin Qiu'er couldn't bear to see Mo Yanxiu collapse like that, so she consoled him.

"However, even if your father would not do such a thing, if you continue to live in such a muddle-headed way.

One day, he will throw you out of the house like a rag and leave you to fend for yourself."

"If you really can't survive, come to Nalan Mountain Range in Lingao County to find me, and I'll help you find a place to live."

Lin Nanyue looked at Mo Yanxiu's pale face and shaky body, feeling sorry for him for having such an inhuman father, and suggested out of sympathy.

Mo Yanxiu wanted to laugh, but the muscles on his face seemed to be frozen and he couldn't laugh at all.

At this moment, he really couldn't laugh.

"Then I would like to thank you in advance for taking me in."

Lin Qiu'er covered her mouth and chuckled. She noticed that although Mo Yanxiu had been hit hard, he seemed to be making a final struggle.

She remembered that she was going to Cuiyun Tower tonight, and as Mo Yanxiu was a frequent visitor to the brothel, many things would be much more convenient if he led the way.

So, she asked, "Is Master Mo free tonight?"

Mo Yanxiu turned his head expressionlessly, not understanding why Lin Qiuer suddenly changed the topic to the evening.

"Originally we were going to Cuiyun Tower tonight, but now..."

But now he just wanted to go home and ask his mother the truth of the matter, whether his father was really a heartless and ungrateful bastard as Lin Qiuer said.

"You want to go back now and don't want to go to Cuiyun Tower tonight, right?" Lin Qiuer asked.

Mo Yanxiu didn't understand why Lin Qiu'er could always guess his thoughts accurately, "Do you know any magic?"

"puff!"

The one who made the sound was Lin Nanyue. He looked down at the dishes on the table, all of which were stained by his saliva.

Then he raised his head and found that Lin Qiuer and Gu Anqing were looking at him with strange eyes.

His face turned red and he felt a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and tried to find a crack in the ground to hide in.

"Fourth brother, you are so disgusting. How can we eat this?" Lin Nanye also frowned and put down his chopsticks.

Gu Anqing also put down his chopsticks and said to Changqing, "Go and order some more dishes. Leave these for Nanyue."

Lin Qiuer thought, fortunately, she had almost finished eating.

She took out a handkerchief from her bosom and wiped her mouth, then said, "Master Mo, have you ever seen anyone perform magic?"

"Not really." Mo Yanxiu replied.

"Since you haven't seen it, don't talk nonsense. Do you believe that we will beat you up?" Lin Qiuer threatened with narrowed eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Yanxiu looked like he was about to run away. He must have thought he was going to be beaten.

Satisfying her inner evil spirit, she added, "But it's not impossible to forgive you."

"Haha, Miss Lin, please tell me. As long as I can do it, I will do it without hesitation."

"It's not that difficult actually." Lin Qiu'er smiled slyly, "Just follow your original plan and take us to Cuiyun Tower tonight to see the world."

Mo Yanxiu felt as if he was thrown off a cliff in a short period of time, and then thrown high into the sky. Since entering this private room, today's experience was more thrilling than ever before.

"Miss Lin, you shouldn't go to that kind of place." Mo Yanxiu couldn't help but persuade her.

"Cuiyun Tower is not a place for a girl from a good family like you to go."

"Why do you care so much?" Lin Qiu'er raised her eyebrows.

"I have my reasons for going to Cuiyun Tower, and I have my own ways to deal with any situation."

Mo Yanxiu felt a little uncomfortable. He used to go to brothels openly and had never thought that one day he would go there with a girl. This unfamiliar situation made him feel a little at a loss.

"It's a mess there, not suitable for a girl like you to go there." He was still making his last struggle, trying his best to persuade her.

"We can go to the horse farm, teahouse or somewhere else."

He looked at the others, hoping they would join in the persuasion, but he only got a helpless response.

"We had advised her not to go to Cuiyun Tower a long time ago, but she insisted on going," Gu Anqing explained.

Lin Nanye and Lin Nanyue were both puzzled. Why did they try to dissuade their younger sister from going to the brothel? Wasn't she going there to see the girls?

If we talk about danger, they are in greater danger. They might be forced to stay by those flower girls.

Lin Qiu'er looked at Mo Yanxiu triumphantly with a teasing smile on her face, "You'd better save your energy, we must go to Cuiyun Tower tonight.

As for you, before you have the ability to rebel against your father, I advise you to continue to hang out in brothels and be a good-for-nothing, so that you can save your life."

"Uh... Miss Lin, I think you should be more careful with your words." Mo Yanxiu felt that being called "useless" was a bit hurtful to his self-esteem. "After all, this is just our first meeting. There's no need to become enemies as soon as we meet."

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Chang Qing got up and opened the door. It turned out that the waiter brought the newly ordered dishes.

Lin Qiu'er was already full, and she was leaning back in her chair leisurely with her teacup in her hands, turning a deaf ear to Mo Yanxiu's words.
