However, Jiang Wu also knew that no matter how angry she was, she had no right to lose her temper, so she had to control her temper.

Even so, her complexion was not very good, which made Madam Li dare not say anything more.

There was dance and music arranged by Qingyang at the banquet.

Jiang Wu was watching absent-mindedly and people around them were still continuing to add insult to injury to Madam Li without any tact.

“I heard that Madam Li’s son’s sweetheart has a troupe at home, so why not invite them over so we can have a look?”

Madam Li’s face turned pale.

Jiang Wu was also annoyed. She glanced at Qingyang, who smiled and continued, “Madam He knows that the girl’s family is from a theatre troupe, but doesn’t she know that her father is a guest of honor of this Gōngzhǔ?”

For a moment, no one dared to speak.

Everyone knew who this distinguished guest was, and they might feel ashamed in their hearts, but who dared to show it on their face?

Jiang Wu couldn’t help but soften her heart.

She had originally planned not to have any more contact with Mo Yangzhou and his daughter before the divorce, but after this incident, she could no longer ignore it.

She still had to find a chance to meet Mingzhu and have a good talk with her. She couldn’t let her be deceived.

At night.

A black figure tiptoed silently into the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

She looked carefully and found that her usual position was occupied by someone. After a moment of thought, she took advantage of a gust of wind and hid among the leaves.

One two three……

After counting silently, she roughly figured out how many secret guards there were in the yard and their respective positions. Then she looked down at the people in the yard.

It was that woman and her two children.

They sat in the yard, chatting about daily trivialities. The two children’s features were vaguely similar to hers.

The man in black took off the cloth covering her face, revealing Mo Mingzhu’s face.

Mo Mingzhu watched the woman pick up the teapot and fill it for the other two.

“This is the tea art I have been learning for a long time, you all should try it.”

Her tone was gentle and there was always a relaxed smile in her eyes.

In Mo Mingzhu’s impression, every time she saw her, the woman’s eyes were always filled with endless sorrow and she always looked tired.

It was rare to feel so completely relaxed like she was now.

Humph, Mo Mingzhu snorted in her heart, it was really a touching picture of a loving mother and filial children. As soon as she thought that this was the family of that dog official, she felt disgust and hatred in her heart.

She attributed her slight irritation to this.

How could a dog official who had caused so many families to be broken up have a happy family? He also deserves to have his family broken up…

The word “death” was suppressed when she saw Jiang Wu’s face.

Although she was the wife of that dog official, this woman was really brainless, and this was the only way she could get close to the dog official.

“Mom, can we sleep together tonight?”

It was Chu Nianyin’s voice, and she spoke in a soft and gentle tone that made Mo Mingzhu want to frown.

But someone was very happy: “Of course you can.” You could hear her surprise and even flattery in her tone, “I’ll ask the servants to prepare it.”

Chu Ye had already left and went back to his room to read. Jiang Wu held Chu Nianyin’s hand and walked inside. Mo Mingzhu looked at the backs of the mother and daughter, and her irritation grew.

When she was lonely, she sought comfort in herself. Now that her biological children were back, she didn’t care about anyone anymore.

Well, she didn’t want to play the mother-daughter game with her anymore.

She waited until the oil lamp in the room went out before she turned over and disappeared from the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

---

Mo Mingzhu returned home and was about to sneak into the room when a voice sounded behind her.

“Where did you go?”

When she turned around, she saw Mo Yangzhou, dressed in a green shirt and holding a coal lamp.

Mo Mingzhu was still wearing her black dress, so she couldn’t make an excuse. She didn’t want to make an excuse either, so she just replied impatiently: “Why do you care so much about me?”

Although the father and daughter depended on each other, their relationship was not very close.

“The Prime Minister’s Mansion is heavily guarded. If you take it lightly, something will go wrong sooner or later.” Mo Yangzhou frowned. Although he was accusing her, he tried to keep his tone gentle. “Don’t take risks unless it’s necessary.”

Mo Mingzhu disagreed.

She looked at her father who was trying to persuade her earnestly, and suddenly she felt angry and snorted coldly.

“Or will I be like you? Waiting for her to come to me like a resentful husband? Have you forgotten why you approached her? Are you really in love with her? Have you forgotten who killed my mother? She is now doing well with that official’s children! Why would she miss you?”

Mo Yangzhou, who was originally ready to preach, swallowed his words back under her attack.

He pursed his lips for a while, then asked, “Did something happen? Are you in a bad mood?”

This made Mo Mingzhu’s face look even worse.

“I’m just in a bad mood, and that’s your fault. If you weren’t incompetent, how could you not protect my mother?”

After saying that, she walked into the room and slammed the door.

She was weird, and she knew she was weird now.

Mo Mingzhu had never seen her mother. As far as she could remember, there had only been her father, and her mother was just a vague impression.

That was how it was originally.

When did she start to long for her mother? Perhaps it was when she was ill and confused five years ago when that woman hugged her and smelled the rich fragrance in her arms, and when she saw the kindness in her eyes every time, that her mother began to take on a concrete form in her heart.

If she had a mother, she would probably be like that woman, silly, not very smart, and always confused.

But she is kind, soft-hearted, simple, and devoted to her children.

Such a fragile person certainly needed her father to protect her.

If her father wasn’t so incompetent, how could she be gone so early? How could she leave her so early…
