After the celebration, Meton was especially sleepy and slept until late in the morning. As soon as he woke up, he found that the entire Mo Manor was filled with a joyous atmosphere.
"Hello, Young Master!"
"Hello, Young Master!"
Every brother of Mo Jiazi who saw Meton greeted him cheerfully with a meaningful smile.
"What's going on?" Mo Dun was at a loss. He was filled with doubt and confusion. He felt that the entire Mo clan was acting strangely today.
"Young Master, please have breakfast!" Uncle Fu quickly served up a sumptuous breakfast.
Meton tasted it and his eyes lit up. It tasted great.
"Young Master, do you like it? If not, the Old Man will ask Yu Er to make it again," Uncle Fu said kindly.
"Yu Er! Isn't he at Fish Scholar's Restaurant? What is he doing here? " Meton almost spat out the soup in his mouth. Master Yu had gone to Luoyang to take charge of the Mo Family's food city. Yu Er was in charge of the food city business in Chang 'an City. How could he have time to come to the Mo Manor to cook?
Uncle Fu said indifferently, "Yu Er came to the Mo Manor to cook in the morning and taught the cooking skills of the Mo Manor's kitchen maids. In the future, Young Master will be able to eat delicious food every day."
Meton was doubtful. He casually poured the food into his mouth and was caught by Aunt Xu who had been waiting for him.
"Oh! Young Master, why are you still wearing the clothes from last year? Come, let Aunt Xu make some new clothes for you. I guarantee that you will look radiant when you wear them. "Aunt Xu did not allow any explanation and pulled Meton to measure.
"Aren't these new clothes made last year?" Meton looked at the brocade robe he was wearing and asked in confusion.
The Mo Family had always advocated frugality. Although they had passed the days of poverty, they had not developed the luxury of throwing away a piece of clothing after a few months.
Aunt Xu was not moved at all and insisted, "A few new clothes were popular in Chang 'an City last year. Young man, you look so handsome in them. Aunt Xu will make them for you now."
In fact, Auntie Xu already knew Meton's clothes size clearly. Even so, Auntie Xu still measured it meticulously.
Soon, Auntie Xu was satisfied with her measurement and left. Li Yi walked in with a smile on his face.
"Why is Uncle Li here?" Meton quickly got up and asked.
"Uncle Li is here for you today. Why didn't you tell Uncle Li that such a big thing had happened and let us prepare?" Li Yi said with a face full of reproach.
"Prepare? What are you going to do? "Meton became more and more confused. Ever since he woke up today, he had discovered that the entire Mo clan was strange.
"To propose marriage!" Li Yi said naturally.
"Propose marriage? Propose marriage to who?" Meton was stunned.
"Of course, on the night of Shangyuan, the girl you gave her the golden thread. Since you are in love with each other, you naturally need to go to her house to propose marriage. Otherwise, you will let her down!" Li Yi said with a smile. At the beginning, they were worried about Meton's marriage. Now it seemed that their efforts were in vain. Meton did everything directly without saying a word.
"Propose marriage to her house!" Meton suddenly understood why everyone in the Mo clan was like this today. It seemed that it was because of the rumors yesterday.
"Young master, don't worry. Now the Mo clan has become rich. What's more, you are very talented. No matter which family's daughter is from, the Mo clan can afford the betrothal gifts and can match her." Li Yi said proudly, as if all the girls in the world were eager to marry Meton.
"If it's not convenient for an Old Man to show up, I will try my best to ask Mrs. Qin to be the matchmaker for you." Li Yi patted his chest and promised.
The Mo clan was named the first village in the world by His Majesty. It had a lot of money and grain. Li Yi certainly had the confidence to say that. Now all the bachelors in the Mo clan were either married or engaged. However, their family head was still single. They had been worried for a long time. Now they suddenly heard this good news, how could they not be excited?
"It's too early!" Meton forced a smile.
If it was an ordinary family, he would not be afraid. But he suddenly thought that if he went to Li Shimin with the betrothal gifts to propose marriage, Meton suddenly trembled at the thought of the scene.
"Early! It's indeed early. According to the custom of the Mo clan, 18 is the most suitable age to get married. " Li Yi changed his tone and said, "Although it's a little early, you can get engaged first. It's not too late to get married at that time."
"Let's talk about it later. Uncle Li, you don't have to worry about it anymore! Besides, it's not certain whether the girl is willing or not! "Meton waved his hand and said.
Li Yi asked behind him, "Then at least tell us which family the girl is from! So that we can know what's going on! "
"I don't know. It was too dark at that time. I didn't know her name." Before Uncle Li could react, Meton immediately ran away.
Indeed! At that time, Princess Changle did not announce her name. She used the alias Li Zhi.
"You didn't announce her name!" Li Yi was suddenly dumbfounded.
He had thought of many things, but he did not expect that Meton would say that. If he did not know her name, how could he propose marriage?
"Could it be that the young master is too embarrassed to say it, or the girl doesn't agree?" Li Yi was full of confidence in Meton just now, but now he was worried about his gains and losses.
"Brother Li, don't be anxious. Since we know that the young master has someone in his heart, and that the girl has received the young master's golden thread, it's only a matter of time before we find out who the girl is. When the time comes, it won't be too late for Brother Li to show up!" Uncle Fu, on the other hand, was quite open-minded. They were originally worried about the young master's marriage, but now it was much better than before. What was there to be dissatisfied about? He didn't think that the young master was so outstanding that the other party's woman wouldn't like him. Maybe the young master was shy or something.
"Brother Fu, this plan is brilliant." Li Yi's eyes lit up.
He knew Meton's personality. If he forcefully intervened, it would only backfire. He did not believe that the young master would not give himself away.
At the same time, in Chang 'an, all the tea houses and restaurants were discussing Mo Jiazi's new words. At the same time, they were guessing who Mo Jiazi's true love was.
"The beauty gave me a beautiful paragraph, how can I repay the jade case?" In the Pan family's restaurant, Scholar Sun recited, "This is Zhang Heng of the Eastern Han Dynasty's Four Worries Poem. This is the origin of the jade case."
This Zhang Heng was the famous Zhang Heng who invented the seismograph. However, we only knew that Zhang Heng was a scientist. We did not know that in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhang Heng was as famous as Sima Xiangru. He wrote many classic poems and essays.
"Brother Sun is indeed knowledgeable!"
Everyone praised. This was the origin of Mo Jiazi's words.
"If that's the case, then the girl Mo Jiazi is going to the market with must be a beauty!" His companion exclaimed.
"That's probably it! However, it should be a girl dressed as a man. Otherwise, Mo Jiazi would not use the jade case as the name of the poem. "Scholar Sun nodded.
After all, there were many girls dressed as men on the night of the Shangyuan Festival. It was not a small number of girls dressed as men.
"I knew it. How could Mo Jiazi be that kind of person!" The surrounding people could not help but nod.
Everyone was disappointed. This news was not as shocking as the news that Mo Jiazi was gay.
"But who was able to gain Mo Jiazi's favor?" This was what everyone was most curious about.
"I'm afraid that if Mo Jiazi did not say and that girl did not appear, no one would know." Scholar Sun shook his head.
Everyone sighed, and the curiosity in their hearts grew even stronger.
Suddenly, a servant in green ran over in a panic and exclaimed, "The girl who accompanied Mo Jiazi on the night of the Lantern Festival has appeared?"
Everyone was shocked. They hurriedly asked, "Really? Which family is she from?"
The servant shook his head blankly and said, "I don't know. They have not fought over it yet."
"Fought over it?" Everyone was confused.
The servant in green said helplessly, "All of a sudden, there were more than ten girls wearing golden hair and admitting that they were the girls who accompanied Mo Jiazi on the night of the Lantern Festival."
"More than ten!"
