Reborn: Femme Fatale First Daughter (PART 1)

Chapter 77: The Concubine's Daughters Cause Trouble

"Marriage? I don't know about this either. Or perhaps old sir was just saying it. Madam had never betrothed Miss to anyone when she was alive?" Nanny Ming said confidently. She spoke even before Mo Xuetong was done speaking.

"Nanny, do you know of any Madam that mother was close to?" Mo Xuetong asked persistently. Feng Yuran would not cause trouble for sure. Even though he looks as if he was carefree and playful, she knew that he was not as what he seemed.

Their odd meeting at the Repayment Temple had shown her that he was not a simple man!

Would a man like this say anything to her that was nonsense?

Definitely not!

"Madam's health was poor and had always been in bed. She did not have any especially close friends even in Cloud City. Her relationships with the other Madams were just so-so. It's is impossible for her to betroth you to someone in Cloud City." Nanny Ming recounted.

She was Luo Xia's nursemaid and had worked for Luo Xia all these while. Then, she had gone with Luo Xia when she married into the Mo Manor. She was very loyal and Mo Xuetong believed what she said. However, for some reason, she also believed what Feng Yuran said as well.

Since her mother had not any close friends, how was it possible for her to betroth her to someone? furthermore, in the 20-odd years of her past life and the ten-odd years in this life, no one had ever mentioned it to her. It was impossible for no one in the entire manor to talk about it. Could it be true that her father was only just saying it to reject the King?

Her intuition told her that that was not true! Definitely not! However, there was no way for her to find out either. Since even Nanny Ming, who knew her mother very well had said that there was no such thing, how was it possible then?

That night, Mo Xuetong found it hard to sleep. She tossed and turned as she thought. She felt that it was too weird and it was like a heavy weight on her heart. After the tragic incident in her past life, she would definitely walk into marriage with a clear head. She did not need romance and did not need her husband to be extremely successful. She just wanted him to treat her well.

No, she must not allow marriage to ruin her entire life again.

"Miss, first miss' Mo Xiu went to visit the Duke's manor secretly last afternoon under the guise of buying makeup. She left from the side door and returned in 10 minutes. They prepared a carriage this morning and said that first miss was going to go out later." Mo Ye brought the news that Mo Feng found out to Mo Xuetong in the morning.

Mo Xuetong's first thought was that Mo Xuemin and Sima Lingyun were going on a date. Her second thought was to immediately reject her first thought.

What were Mo Xuemin and Sima Lingyun going to discuss when they met? Mo Xuemin had been in trouble recently and had to be well-behaved. Furthermore, the two of them had nothing going on between them right now. So they can't be going on a date. Then, they must be plotting against her! A cold smile appeared on her lips!

The two of them were really persistent.

"What time did Fourth Miss return to her courtyard yesterday?" Mo Xuetong played with a stalk of flower for a few moments before she asked.

"Fourth Miss was only allowed to return in the middle of the night. However, it was really weird. Fourth Miss' personal maid also left the manor once. She left at three in the afternoon to the medicine shop." Mo Ye answered.

Mo Feng did not have time to find out what medicine she bought because he still had to follow Mo Xuemin's servant, Mo Xiu.

Her sisters were really great. They both did not forget to scheme against her!
