Chapter 217 Mo's Father's Furious Outburst
217. Mo's father's anger and embarrassment
It is no exaggeration to say that without her, the future of the Mo family would have been bleak, and the idea of rebuilding its former glory would have been nothing but a pipe dream, extremely difficult.
However, from the moment Chu Jiuyue stepped into the gates of the Mo family, she became like a dazzling star, illuminating the previously somewhat dim sky.
Her appearance brought not only a glimmer of hope to the Mohist school, but also ignited a blazing flame of hope.
Chu Jiuyue's extraordinary wisdom was like a beacon, guiding the Mo family members on their confused path to find their way forward; while her fearless courage was like a surging wave, washing away the many obstacles in their way.
Chu Jiuyue's extraordinary wisdom was like a beacon, guiding the Mo family members on their confused path to find their way forward; while her fearless courage was like a surging wave, washing away the many obstacles in their way.
Whether they were elders or younger members of the Mo family, everyone admired her wisdom and courage, and they all looked at her with new respect.
It can be said that Chu Jiuyue has become the soul of the Mo family. Her existence is like a spring breeze sweeping across the long-frozen land, instantly injecting this ancient family with a continuous stream of vitality.
Once, reviving the Mohist school's former glory seemed like a distant dream, but now, thanks to Chu Jiuyue, this dream is gradually becoming a reality.
Not only Mo's father, but all members of the Mo family felt grateful to Chu Jiuyue.
This deep friendship is like a towering mountain, which will not be easily erased no matter how time flows.
They knew that without Chu Jiuyue's wisdom and courage, the Mohist school would likely continue to sink into its slump, unable to extricate itself.
More importantly, the impact of Chu Jiuyue's arrival is not limited to Mo Wenchen's personal fate, but also affects the future direction of the entire Mo family.
With her unique charm and abilities, she successfully reversed the decline of the Mohist school, allowing it to regain its vitality.
Even the other families who had close ties with the Mo family, after hearing about the changes that had taken place in Mo Wenchen, couldn't help but develop a strong interest in and heartfelt gratitude for Chu Jiuyue, whom they had never met.
They were eager to see for themselves what kind of extraordinary woman possessed such immense power that she could save a family from ruin.
……
"Dad, I have bad news for you. It seems your application may not have been approved."
Mo Wenchen's casual remark was like a bolt from the blue, exploding in the air with earth-shattering force!
In an instant, it was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of surging waves.
Mo's father's face, which had been relatively calm, froze instantly upon hearing those words, as if he had been frozen in place.
His eyes widened, a fleeting look of barely concealed shame flashing across them, followed by a blazing fire of anger.
Suddenly, Mo's father turned his head sharply and glared at Mo Wenchen standing beside him.
His sharp gaze was filled with merciless dissatisfaction and reproach. He gritted his teeth and forced out a cold, laced rebuke, each word sharp with anger: "Hmph! You make it sound so easy! But let me tell you, next time, you'd better keep your mouth shut and keep your so-called 'brilliant insights' to yourself!"
However, surprisingly, Mo Wenchen remained silent in the face of his father's furious and harsh rebuke.
He stood quietly in place, head bowed, motionless like a statue.
In fact, Mo Wenchen knew his father's fiery temper all too well—it was a stubborn personality that never compromised easily and always faced all kinds of difficulties head-on.
Mo Wenchen understood perfectly well that the reason his father was so furious at this moment was that behind his anger lay a deep concern for the future and fate of the entire family.
He also understood that deep within his father's seemingly unyielding heart lay endless suffering; and that resentment and deep disappointment gnawed at his father's heart like a venomous snake.
Although Mo Wenchen saw all of this and understood it perfectly, he still chose to keep his lips tightly shut and remain silent.
Because he knew that some things ultimately required his father to figure out and understand them thoroughly on his own...
After all, his father's innate seriousness and pursuit of swift justice often made him dissatisfied with certain things, yet he struggled to find an effective solution.
Mo's father wasn't truly at a loss; however, his emotional nature filled him with anger.
It was this emotion that drove him to take a series of subsequent actions in his rage. The highly respected old leader knew his capable subordinate's temperament very well, and therefore had been suppressing his disagreement with some of Mo's father's decisions.
The decision made by Mo's father, though seemingly a helpless move, was in fact the result of careful consideration based on the long-term interests of the entire family.
Perhaps Mo's father knew all along that his actions would be difficult to gain recognition and support, which is why he acted so recklessly; or perhaps it was because he hoped that the Mo family could quietly disappear from public view and maintain a low profile to protect the family.
Whatever the reason, Mo Wenchen knew very well that his father was by no means a foolish or clumsy person; on the contrary, he was quite intelligent and quick-witted.
It is important to understand that if one relies solely on the advantages provided by their family without possessing genuine strength, it is absolutely impossible to ascend to and maintain that high position.
Mo Fu's exceptional wisdom and skillful methods were key to the Mohist school's ability to remain invincible in the complex and ever-changing political environment.
“Father, your constant concessions have not made those people stop or reflect on their actions. On the contrary, they have become more and more unscrupulous and relentless, even mistakenly believing that our Mo family is cowardly and easily bullied. If it weren’t for the few families with close ties to our family putting pressure on us, I’m afraid the viciousness of those heartless people would have gone far beyond just this leg!” Mo Wenchen said with a face full of indignation, his eyes flashing with anger.
Father Mo snorted coldly, his face grim as he replied, “Hmph! It seems those guys have reached a point of desperation. Your exceptional talent and strength, coupled with the fact that that highly respected old leader refuses to budge, have undoubtedly made them realize an unprecedented crisis. That’s why they’ve chosen to gamble everything and take a desperate gamble.”
Mo's father was more or less aware of what those people were thinking.
They had long coveted all the wealth and power of the Mo family, but Mo Wenchen's sudden emergence was like an insurmountable barrier, constantly hindering them from achieving their goals.
It is precisely for this reason that these greedy people have become so impatient and restless that they are willing to take extreme measures to eliminate obstacles.
However, what pained Mo's father the most and found intolerable was that this group of people, for their own selfish interests, actually dared to openly betray the country and do many things that harmed the country's interests.
This behavior is absolutely outrageous!
In order to destroy the Mo family he cherished, those people were so insane that they wanted to eradicate the only bloodline of the Mo family, his son!
This news was like a raging fire, instantly igniting the long-suppressed anger deep within Mo's father's heart, and the fire rose fiercely and uncontrollably.
At this moment, Mo's father's chest heaved violently, his eyes were bloodshot, and all sorts of terrifying thoughts flashed through his mind. He wished he could sprout wings and fly back to Dijing immediately to engage in a life-or-death struggle with those evil forces and fight to the death.
In Mo's father's mind, the family's honor and his son's safety were paramount; everything else seemed insignificant in comparison.
He knew that the Mohist school had grown and thrived to this day through the efforts and struggles of several generations, and this honor should not be trampled on by anyone; and as a father, protecting his children was his bounden duty.
“As long as the Mo family still exists, and your mother’s belongings are still in her hands, those with ill intentions will probably never give up. Our Mo family is certainly their target, but I suspect that the thing your mother had might also be one of the key factors that led to this crisis.” At this point, Mo’s father couldn’t help but think of the secret manual that his wife’s family had kept hidden.
This treasure trove not only carries the wisdom and skills passed down through generations of a family, but also hides a tremendous secret—a secret that could drive countless people crazy with excitement.
Recalling the few words he had overheard from his wife about this precious book, Mo's father's mood grew even heavier.
Although little is known about its specific content, one can sense the mysterious power and endless allure contained within those few words.
Without a doubt, if some of the information in the manual falls into the hands of those with ulterior motives, it will surely trigger a bloody storm.
Father Mo took a deep breath, his brows furrowed as if bearing a thousand-pound burden. He knew very well that this treasure was far more than just a simple family heirloom; it concealed a tremendous, earth-shattering secret.
Whenever he thought of this, Mo's father would feel a splitting headache, and an invisible pressure would weigh heavily on his heart like Mount Tai crushing an egg.
Deep in Mo's heart, protecting this precious book had become an obsession ingrained in his very being. He knew all too well the power and value it contained, and that if it were to be leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this moment, when the possibility of his wife inheriting this precious book was mentioned, Mo's father's expression became even more solemn.
"By the way, son, from what your mother said, she seems to intend to pass that manual on to your wife. Speaking of your wife, she's truly an extraordinary person! Even your mother was helpless with your injured leg, but your wife healed it with ease. So..." At this point, Mr. Mo suddenly stopped speaking, but how could Mo Wenchen not understand what he was about to say, even if he didn't finish uttering it?
Upon hearing this, Mo Wenchen's heart skipped a beat, as if struck by lightning.
His brow twitched uncontrollably, and his mood instantly became extremely complicated. He understood, of course, what this treasure book meant to the entire Mo family—it was not only a symbol of the family's honor and strength, but also a matter of life and death for the clan.
At the same time, he was also very clear that if this precious book unfortunately fell into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it would inevitably trigger a terrible disaster, the severity of which was simply immeasurable.
Mo Wenchen looked at his father with complicated emotions, his lips moving slightly as if he had a thousand words to say, but in the end, it only turned into a helpless and heavy sigh.
The sigh drifted slowly through the air, leaving Mo's father feeling utterly bewildered.
However, how could Mo's father know the reason behind it?
His daughter-in-law, who is not yet married into the family, is now extremely lazy. She does nothing all day and is unwilling to do anything.
She only wanted to lie comfortably and curl up to be lazy, so how could she possibly have any interest in the precious manual taught by Mother Mo?
She would even try to avoid the occasional appearance of the dodging system, let alone actively study and practice those tedious things.
Mo Wenchen sighed inwardly. Only he knew what this treasure book truly meant to the entire Mo family.
It not only embodies the wisdom and hard work of generations of family members, but also represents a supreme honor and responsibility.
Moreover, if this precious manual were to fall into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it would bring unimaginable disasters and crises to the Mohist school.
Therefore, deep in Mo Wenchen's heart, he always harbored an almost obsessive dedication to protecting this precious manual. He deeply understood that this manual was far more than just a simple family heirloom; it concealed a colossal, earth-shattering secret—a secret that could captivate countless people and drive them to frenzied pursuit!
He knew all too well that the inheritance of this treasure was of extraordinary significance, its importance extending far beyond the family's honor, and was closely related to the future, destiny, and safety of the entire family.
He knew perfectly well that protecting this precious book was his inescapable duty, and this responsibility was deeply imprinted in his heart, becoming an unwavering and undying belief in the depths of his soul.
Mo Wenchen was well aware that the inheritance of this treasure was of paramount importance to the family. It not only carried the wisdom and hard work of the ancestors, but also directly affected the future rise and fall of the family, and even determined whether the family could survive safely in a world of constant change.
