Unexpectedly, County Duke Dongping, this weasel, did not send him away, yet another white-faced fox came.
After a busy day returning to the mansion, Mo Taiwen felt like shouting out loud: Hey, evil genius, let go of my daughter!
But that was the incomparably respected Crown Prince, he didn't dare to do anything?
Mo Taiwen could only stand to the side and eat the melon. How could he feel aggrieved when he saw that the crown prince and Little Nine were 'in love'? Fortunately, Mo Taiwen had Mo Pingchu and the others to accompany him, which made him feel a lot better.
Mo Pingchu's heart hadn't been at ease recently. Ever since he moved back Mansion of State Duke and received the greeting gift, Mo Pingchu always had the feeling that his sister was being targeted. At this moment, Mo Pingchu's brows were knitted tightly as he watched Lee Heng cuddling and teasing Little Nine.
Although the Crown Prince was much older than Little Nine, he was still a man. Men and women shouldn't be too intimate with each other. Little Nine didn't understand how someone as old as the Crown Prince couldn't be understood.
Fortunately, the new year was approaching. County Duke Dongping and the crown prince were too busy to even touch the ground and thus did not have the opportunity to visit Little Nine. This allowed Mo Taiwen and Mo Pingchu to finally feel relieved.
In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. The Old Master, Mo Taiwu, and the others entered the palace to attend the banquet. Mo Taiwen and Xu Jingniang were having New Year's Eve dinner with their children.
It was a custom in the capital to put the pepper on a tray and put a pinch into a glass to dispel the cold and dampness.
The old man had said that men could not drink alcohol, and that was why Mo Family men had always learned to drink wine since young. People as old as Mo Pingchu had already started to cultivate alcohol consumption. Xu Jingniang had been married to Mo Taiwen for so many years that she gradually gained a bit of tolerance for alcohol. As her son and nephew were fighting to toast her, she unknowingly drank quite a bit too.
Seeing her parents and brothers drinking so enthusiastically, Little Nine could not help but feel a little envious. She pointed at the wine pot with longing eyes and shouted, ”Yes, yes!”
Xu Jingniang smiled and said, ”I can't give you that. You're still young.” Little Nine couldn't help but frown unhappily. Mo Taiwen said in amusement, ”This is wine, not sugar. You should be crying after you drink it.”
Seeing that her parents did not agree with her, Little Nine immediately started crying loudly.
Mo Taiwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Little Nine. He didn't know where this girl had learned that from. As long as she didn't follow his wishes, she would scream at the top of her lungs and cry!
However, this trick worked. Little Nine cried. Mo Pingchu and the others could not help but say to Xu Jingniang, ”Mom, let little sister have a taste!”
”It's only one drop, everyone drink it. If we don't let Little Nine drink it, how pitiful would it be!”
”Auntie, it's the new year. Don't make sister cry, just give her a try!”
Xu Jingniang looked speechlessly at the boys who helped Little Nine explain everything, then looked at Little Nine who was screaming at the top of her lungs and glancing at her from time to time. She pinched Little Nine's nose and said, ”Alright, Little Ancestor, stop acting for me, I'll give you a taste. If not, don't make trouble for me.”
Little Nine immediately stopped crying and stared eagerly at Xu Jingniang. Xu Jingniang became even more annoyed and amused. Helplessly, she dipped her chopsticks into the wine and ordered Little Nine's lips. Little Nine licked her lips and her face immediately scrunched up.
Everyone started laughing out loud. Mo Pingchu was so distressed that he hurriedly picked up a piece of honey to feed Little Nine. Little Nine smacked her lips and stretched out her small hand towards Xu Jingniang, shouting, ”Yes, yes!”
