Chapter 2583 - 2583 Giving You Face

2583 Giving You Face

“Tao’er?” Mo Xikang’s tone of voice turned grave.

Su Xitao stomped her foot and reluctantly bowed. She said to Mo Lian and Qiao Mu, “Tao’er was being unruly earlier. Please forgive me for the affront.”

The circ.u.mstances forced her to temporarily lower her head. It wasn’t that she wanted to save the face of that crown prince consort who came from a village!

Su Xitao pursed her lips, barely suppressing the disdain in her eyes.

Who knew how much longer she could remain as the crown prince consort? His Majesty would find a reason to dismiss and replace her sooner or later.

Frankly speaking, all these patrician families in the capital had adopted a wait and see att.i.tude. They all did not think well of this young crown prince consort’s prospects.

Qiao Mu swept Mo Xikang an indifferent glance. “The Zheng Prince wants to just use a mere apology to dismiss your younger sister’s crime of offending this crown prince consort, her social superior?”

The Zheng Prince, Mo Xikang, was stunned. Only now did he focus on sizing up the crown prince consort.

She possessed an exquisite appearance and dignified bearing. Was it truly as the rumors said, that this crown prince consort was only a woman from a village?

Mo Xikang naturally wasn’t going to argue with Qiao Mu. He merely cupped his hands toward Mo Lian with a smile. “It has only been several days since Your Highness the Crown Prince returned to the capital, so this brother was afraid to bother you. I had planned to call on you tomorrow, but I did not expect for us to meet so coincidentally in Listless Pavilion.”

“It is on me for failing to discipline my younger sister, causing her to act so overweeningly and offend the crown prince and crown prince consort. I will apologize again on her behalf. I hope that you can forgive her this time in consideration of her young age.” Mo Xikang openly acknowledged his mistake and said with a smile, “This brother will definitely properly discipline this child once we return.”

She’s so old already, yet still a child? So she’ll never grow up, huh?

Qiao Mu rolled her eyes. She felt that this Mo Xikang was too gentle-mannered and not resolute enough. She disliked such wishy-washy temperaments very much. No wonder he taught his younger sister into this state, yet Qiao Mu only knew half the truth.

Actually, it was rather unjust to put the responsibility of teaching Su Xitao on Mo Xikang.

He had only met his birth parents three months ago. They had been separated for more than 20 years, so he didn’t really have a hand in his younger sister’s upbringing.

However, his indecisive temperament was indeed accurate. He was a filial man. When he saw that his birth parents were faring so badly, he couldn’t bear it. Taking them in thus seemed like the natural course of action.

Mo Xikang cupped his hands toward the young crown prince consort when he saw her displeasure. “Forgive me, Sister-in-Law.”

Since he had already made such a plea, it seemed unjustified to not forgive Mo Xikang’s younger sister.

Mo Lian turned to look at his wifey.

He didn’t care either way. If his little wife was adamant on punis.h.i.+ng this arrogant Su Xitao, he would stand by her.

Qiaoqiao naturally wasn’t going to make it hard on him. After all, this was their first meeting with this adoptive brother. She’d give him the face that he deserved.

However…

“Zheng Prince, is your younger sister’s family living in your Zheng Prince’s Estate right now?” The little fellow asked with a stoic expression.

“Precisely.”

“Then you truly had better keep them in check. Otherwise, they may bring shame to the Zheng Prince’s Estate outside. After all, they are living in your estate, so they represent the prestige of your Zheng Prince’s Estate.”

These words greatly resonated with s.h.i.+ Yongyan.

She had not been having an easy time during these past few months. Ever since that family came, trouble had never stopped cropping up.
