Tan Mo couldn’t help but think back to what she saw in the mirror in her previous life.
Because the main thing she saw was about her own family matters, so she saw very little about things outside the family.
But because of Wei Keli’s relationship, Wei Zhiqian’s name could still more or less be heard.
Tan Mo thought hard and couldn’t even remember the name of Wei Zhiqian’s wife in her previous life.
Wait, was Wei Zhiqian even married?
Thinking of this, Tan Mo felt very uncertain.
She seemed to have no memory of Wei Zhiqian’s marriage.
But she was very sure that none of this had anything to do with Qin Murong.
She vaguely remembered that in her previous life, Wei Keli seemed to have mentioned that Qin Murong wanted to marry Wei Zhiqian but failed.
So in this life, if nothing unexpected happened, Qin Murong still won’t be able to marry Wei Zhiqian.
Qin Murong looked at this little girl who didn’t know how to praise her with a gloomy look, and her voice became colder: “It’s just a doll, why are you so stingy? Besides, Muxiao is not trying to steal your doll, she just wants to bring it over and have a look.”
“This doll is not a valuable thing. If you don’t even show it, doesn’t it look too stingy and that you have never seen the world?” How stingy was the Tan family to let their daughter be so embarrassing such as to treat a doll like a baby and not let go.
After saying that, Qin Murong showed a gentle and amiable big sister-like smile again, and said softly: “Besides, there is no need to hurt the feelings between children just because of this doll. When you go out to activities, you still have to be more generous, in order to give people a good impression. Now that this happened between us, of course we won’t tell it. But if it were anyone else, they wouldn’t hide it for you like us. Then your reputation for being stingy will spread, then not only you, but also your family will be embarrassed.”
“Momo, I’m not blaming you, but for your own good.” Qin Murong rubbed Tan Mo’s little bun with a gentle look, “In front of others, you can’t be embarrassing like just now.”
Yuan Keqing also tried to persuade her: “Yes, cousin. It’s actually just a doll. Although it was given by Uncle Wei Zhiqian, there is no need not to play with it. Let’s have some fun. This is too sentimental. It won’t sound good if it spreads.”
“Sister Murong.” At this time, Wei Keli came over.
He originally wanted to find an opportunity to apologize to Tan Mo about what happened at his house last time.
Although he didn’t think it was a big deal, nor did he feel that Tan Mo had been wronged in any way.
But since he promised Li Xiangrong to come and apologize to Tan Mo, he must keep his promise.
As a result, he saw them all gathered together.
Seeing Yuan Keqing crying, he immediately thought that Yuan Keqing was being bullied.
“What’s wrong with you?” Wei Keli looked at the Qin sisters nervously.
“It’s nothing.” Qin Murong smiled softly, “It’s just that Muxiao thought Tan Mo’s doll was pretty and wanted to see it, but Tan Mo might have misunderstood her and refused to give it to her.”
Qin Muxiao curled her lips and said: “As if I want to snatch her doll, can’t my family even afford a doll? Who are you scolding? You keep saying that it was given by brother Zhiqian, so you won’t give it to me. Are you using brother Zhiqian to oppress us? It’s a joke! You didn’t even ask who we are, aren’t you just kicking the iron plate?”
Qin Murong patted Qin Muxiao on the shoulder and said magnanimously: “It’s all talk within our circle, isn’t it? It’s normal for Tan Mo not to know.”
After hearing what Qin Muxiao said, Wei Keli also felt that Tan Mo was making a mountain out of a molehill[1].
He couldn’t help but think how at home, Yuan Keqing just wanted to play with the doll, and Tan Mo didn’t want to give it to her. And even after she just gave it back to Tan Mo after playing with it, Tan Mo didn’t want it and she deliberately threw it away to the ground to shame and humiliate Yuan Keqing.
Now that Tan Mo didn’t even look at Qin Muxiao, Wei Keli wasn’t surprised at all.
Wei Keli was a little disappointed. He didn’t know when Tan Mo became so scheming.
At a young age, she knew how to bring Wei Zhiqian out to crush others.
Qin Murong and Qin Muxiao didn’t know, but he knew it too well. Tan Mo had only met Wei Zhiqian once before.
She was not familiar with Wei Zhiqian at all and had nothing to do with him at all.
People who didn’t know may actually be fooled by Tan Mo.
On one side was Qin Murong, who had the tacit understanding among many people that she would surely marry Wei Zhiqian in the future, and on the other side was Tan Mo, who had only met Wei Zhiqian once.
The scale in Wei Keli’s heart easily tilted to Qin Murong’s side.
After all, the Wei family would be inherited by Wei Zhiqian in the future, and his future was also in Wei Zhiqian’s hands.
Since the Qin family had a tacit understanding to marry Qin Murong to Wei Zhiqian, even though Qin Murong was not yet Wei Zhiqian’s fiancée, Wei Keli felt that he should establish a good relationship with Qin Murong as soon as possible.
He had decided early on that he would treat Qin Murong as her future aunt.
Wei Keli could not think of a reason why Wei Zhiqian would disagree.
After all, the Qin family was a big family on the same level as the Wei family, and they were both among the top families in the entire Hua Kingdom.
It was not easy to find such a suitable family daughter for marriage.
Wei Keli also turned to Qin Muxiao and said helpfully: “Yes, Momo, it doesn’t matter if you give the doll to Muxiao, let’s make friends. If you really like it, I will buy you another one later.”
Qin Murong was very satisfied with Wei Keli’s performance and smiled at Wei Keli like an elder or an ally.
Tan Mo turned to look at Wei Keli: “So, brother Keli, you think they are right and you agree with their words and deeds, right?”
Tan Mo’s little face was still as sweet and cute as pink and jade, and Wei Keli suddenly didn’t dare to look into her eyes anymore.
He always felt that if he answered this question, everything would be different.
Wei Keli hesitated, the answer was stuck in his throat, but he couldn’t say it.
Tan Mo’s black and white eyes seemed to be free from dirt, and she looked at him with those clear eyes: “Really?”
Faced with Tan Mo’s questioning, Wei Keli had to give an answer.
His mouth was dry and hot, but he finally said dryly: “I think it’s not an important thing. There is no need to make everyone unhappy because of a doll. I remember that you have always been very generous.”
He was also afraid, that Tan Mo might offend Qin Murong, so he said, “You don’t know, Sister Murong is going to be my future aunt. As his wife, she has the right to take back the things given by my uncle.”
Tan Mo sneered in her heart, so, was this her fault?
It was she who made everyone unhappy.
Because Wei Keli said “little aunt”, Qin Murong’s face turned red, her heart felt sweet, and she felt a little proud.
Qin Muxiao stretched out her hand with an arrogant look on her face: “It’s obviously your fault, everyone said so. Give it to me quickly, don’t make yourself be looked down upon.”
