Chapter 1244: Chapter 391: Buying People_4
Mo Yan bowed her head in contemplation of other matters and did not notice her sister’s peculiar behavior.
On the evening of September 14th, Huian, Mo Qingze returned home with Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao. Originally, Mo Qingze was only granted three days of wedding leave, but Chu Heng generously granted him ten days—however, the additional seven days would be deducted from his salary.
Few had the privilege to enjoy ten days of wedding leave, which clearly demonstrated how deeply Mo Qingze was favored by the Crown Prince, prompting numerous Ministers who were observing the situation to resolve to visit the Mo Family on that day to partake in the wedding celebration.
Zhenzhen and Yun Zhao also benefited from their father’s favor; after explaining the situation to their Master, he readily granted them five days off. Of course, this was on the condition that they didn’t fall behind on their studies; otherwise, the punishment would be more than just a simple paddle on the palm.
After the meal, Mo Yan said to Mo Qingze, "Father, please go and check the arrangements in the bridal chamber. If anything needs to be adjusted, just let us know. The Cui family will be delivering the wedding dowry tomorrow, and it will be too late to make changes after that."
Since the two families lived close by, according to wedding customs, the bride’s family was to deliver the dowry to the groom’s household the day before the marriage, especially large items such as wardrobes and beds. They even had to personally measure the dimensions in the groom’s marital chamber to ensure that the furniture would not be too large or too small.
Mo Qingze, looking at his daughter who had grown thinner, expressed his guilt, "I trust you with these matters, daughter. You have been a great help during this time."
"What are you talking about, Father? I just gave some instructions; I didn’t do much. It’s Grandfather Li and Zhao Mu who have been running around doing the hard work. After your wedding is over, we should really thank them properly!" Mo Yan did not feel that caring for her family was too taxing, although the work during this time was indeed complicated and required her meticulous planning.
Xin Er pouted in feigned dissatisfaction, "Father, I helped too, yet you don’t seem to dote on me at all?"
Mo Qingze laughed and, patting Xin Er’s head, he praised her, "Of course, Father dotes on you. Once the celebration is over, how about I take the three of you sisters out to have fun?"
Upon hearing this, Xin Er was overjoyed and was about to nod in agreement when Zhenzhen pushed her aside and protested, "Father, what about me and Elder brother Zhao? You can’t be so partial and leave us behind."
Mo Qingze glanced at his son, his smile filled with affection, "Are you planning to skip school?"
Zhenzhen shuddered and immediately covered her bottom, vigorously shaking her head, "No, Father, I won’t!"
"Good!" Mo Qingze smiled even more brightly, gently stroking Zhenzhen’s head, his demeanor resembling how Mo Yan would smooth Mao Tuan’s fur.
And so, the family trip was decided, and then they all went to take a look around the new room. Mo Qingze was pleased with every detail; the arrangement of the room was settled, just waiting for the old bed to be removed the next day and for the Cui family’s wedding bed and wardrobe to be moved in.
The following day, everyone in the Mo Family woke up early, ready to receive the dowry.
This time, Old Master Cui personally escorted his legitimate sister’s dowry, showcasing his high regard for his only sister and his esteem for the marriage. As a brother, he couldn’t do much for his sister, but he could provide her confidence through such gestures.
Amid the clamor of gongs, drums, and firecrackers, Old Master Cui dismounted and was welcomed inside by Mo Qingze. Behind them, a stream of dowry items continuously made their way into the courtyard. The dowry stretched from the large open area in front of the gate all the way to several miles beyond. Seen from a high point in the distance, it resembled a bright red ribbon. The phrase "ten miles of bridal procession" couldn’t be more apt, leaving the villagers who had come to spectate speechless with astonishment.
