  Chapter 368: First Mention of Marriage for Little White Cabbage Female Lead (Part 4)


...


Mo Qingze returned home only once a month. The next day, Mo Yan took him to see the lowlands, terraces, and ponds, and discussed her plans for the next year. She also wanted to hear her father's opinions.


Mo Qingze listened with a smile as his eldest daughter calmly and logically explained her plans. He felt everything was excellent and once again felt an immense sense of pride!


His daughter was so capable; as a father, he could only feel proud! All he could do was to study hard, strive to pass the provincial examinations next autumn and the imperial examinations the following spring, and obtain the qualification of a Jinshi. With a certain status, he could provide more protection for his family.


After discussing matters in the fields, Mo Yan also mentioned the affairs in the shop, but she skipped over her dealings with Yan Junyu, attributing it to the help of shopkeeper Xing. Her father was the head of the family and had the right to know everything that happened at home. She hadn't told him about the trouble earlier because she was worried it would affect his studies. Now that the matter was over, there was nothing to worry about.


Mo Qingze, however, knew the dangers involved and suppressed his fear, sternly rebuking Mo Yan. Although he was just a scholar and couldn't help much in this matter, he couldn't believe his daughter would dare to keep such a big thing from him. If something had happened to the children, he would have been the last to know, and that feeling was terrible.


Mo Yan shrunk her neck and braced herself under her father's unconventional display of fatherly love. After he calmed down a bit, she smiled and coaxed, "Dad, I knew what I was doing and didn't tell you. Look, everything's resolved now, right?"


Mo Qingze glanced at her, hmphed, and didn't speak, wearing the look of "I'm still angry and don't want to hear your explanations."


Seeing this, Mo Yan wiped away a bead of sweat from her forehead and couldn't help but chuckle. Her father was acting like a child throwing a tantrum. Nevertheless, she knew she had to placate him; otherwise, when he went to the academy, he would worry about the family and wouldn't be able to focus on his studies.


"Dad, rest assured, from now on, no matter big or small, I will never hide anything from you again. I promise!" She said earnestly, even holding up three fingers, showing how sincere she was.


Facing his eldest daughter's big watery eyes, Mo Qingze's anger dissipated, especially since he wasn't angry at Mo Yan for hiding things from him, but rather at himself.


As a father, he couldn't provide security for his children and had to let his teenage daughter handle crises. This deep sense of failure made him feel ashamed.


Even so, if this girl were to hide something from him again in the future, Mo Qingze would still sternly say, "This time, I'll let it go. But if there's a next time, I'd rather leave the academy and stay at home to watch over you."


"Okay, okay, there won't be a next time!" Mo Yan nodded repeatedly, her head bowed like she was grinding garlic.


Mo Qingze patted his eldest daughter's head satisfactorily. Seeing that she was almost at his shoulder, he couldn't help but feel a twinge in his heart as he realized she would be coming of age next September.


Recently, in addition to studying, he had also been paying attention to the unmarried scholars in the academy and had discovered several talented young men of similar background who were diligent and studious.


These youths were all seventeen or eighteen years old, not bad looking, but their character needed further examination. If they were truly suitable, he could consider arranging a match.


Thinking of this, the open-minded Mo Qingze decided to consult his daughter's opinion, "Yan'er, before you come of age, Dad wants to arrange a marriage for you. What do you think?"


"Ah?" The topic changed so quickly that Mo Yan was momentarily stunned, staring at her father in bewilderment.
