Unexpectedly, County Duke Dongping, this weasel, did not send him away, yet another white-faced fox came.

After a busy day returning to the mansion, Mo Taiwen felt like shouting out loud: Hey, evil genius, let go of my daughter!

But that was the incomparably respected Crown Prince, he didn't dare to do anything?

Mo Taiwen could only stand to the side and eat the melon. How could he feel aggrieved when he saw that the crown prince and Little Nine were 'in love'? Fortunately, Mo Taiwen had Mo Pingchu and the others to accompany him, which made him feel a lot better.

Mo Pingchu's heart hadn't been at ease recently. Ever since he moved back Mansion of State Duke and received the greeting gift, Mo Pingchu always had the feeling that his sister was being targeted. At this moment, Mo Pingchu's brows were knitted tightly as he watched Lee Heng cuddling and teasing Little Nine.

Although the Crown Prince was much older than Little Nine, he was still a man. Men and women shouldn't be too intimate with each other. Little Nine didn't understand how someone as old as the Crown Prince couldn't be understood.

Fortunately, the new year was approaching. County Duke Dongping and the crown prince were too busy to even touch the ground and thus did not have the opportunity to visit Little Nine. This allowed Mo Taiwen and Mo Pingchu to finally feel relieved.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. The Old Master, Mo Taiwu, and the others entered the palace to attend the banquet. Mo Taiwen and Xu Jingniang were having New Year's Eve dinner with their children.

It was a custom in the capital to put the pepper on a tray and put a pinch into a glass to dispel the cold and dampness.

The old man had said that men could not drink alcohol, and that was why Mo Family men had always learned to drink wine since young. People as old as Mo Pingchu had already started to cultivate alcohol consumption. Xu Jingniang had been married to Mo Taiwen for so many years that she gradually gained a bit of tolerance for alcohol. As her son and nephew were fighting to toast her, she unknowingly drank quite a bit too.

Seeing her parents and brothers drinking so enthusiastically, Little Nine could not help but feel a little envious. She pointed at the wine pot with longing eyes and shouted, "Yes, yes!"

Xu Jingniang smiled and said, "I can't give you that. You're still young." Little Nine couldn't help but frown unhappily. Mo Taiwen said in amusement, "This is wine, not sugar. You should be crying after you drink it."

Seeing that her parents did not agree with her, Little Nine immediately started crying loudly.

Mo Taiwen didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Little Nine. He didn't know where this girl had learned that from. As long as she didn't follow his wishes, she would scream at the top of her lungs and cry!

However, this trick worked. Little Nine cried. Mo Pingchu and the others could not help but say to Xu Jingniang, "Mom, let little sister have a taste!"

"It's only one drop, everyone drink it. If we don't let Little Nine drink it, how pitiful would it be!"

"Auntie, it's the new year. Don't make sister cry, just give her a try!"

Xu Jingniang looked speechlessly at the boys who helped Little Nine explain everything, then looked at Little Nine who was screaming at the top of her lungs and glancing at her from time to time. She pinched Little Nine's nose and said, "Alright, Little Ancestor, stop acting for me, I'll give you a taste. If not, don't make trouble for me."

Little Nine immediately stopped crying and stared eagerly at Xu Jingniang. Xu Jingniang became even more annoyed and amused. Helplessly, she dipped her chopsticks into the wine and ordered Little Nine's lips. Little Nine licked her lips and her face immediately scrunched up.

Everyone started laughing out loud. Mo Pingchu was so distressed that he hurriedly picked up a piece of honey to feed Little Nine. Little Nine smacked her lips and stretched out her small hand towards Xu Jingniang, shouting, "Yes, yes!"

Xu Jingniang was stunned. Does this girl still want to drink?

Mo Taiwen smacked the table and laughed, "Little Nine, so you're still a little drunkard!"

Mo Pingchu smiled as he pinched Little Nine's cheek and fed her a little bit of the food on his chopsticks. He saw Little Nine frown and take a sip with a bitter face, yet she still yelled out that she wanted it.

The Mo Family Brothers were all surprised, as they fought over a bit of alcohol to feed Little Nine. Seeing that Little Nine had already drank it a few times and was still feeding it, Xu Jingniang immediately stopped her: "Stop feeding, be careful or you'll get drunk later!"

Unexpectedly, just as Xu Jingniang finished her sentence, Little Nine shook her head, laughed, and moved to the side, falling asleep.

Everyone was stunned for a moment before they burst out laughing. The laughter was mixed with the sounds of fireworks outside. It was exceptionally cheerful.

Xu Jingniang stared at Mo Pingchu and the others in annoyance. She picked Little Nine up and carried her to her room. She called the doctor to have a look and was relieved when she found that Little Nine was just sleeping.

Touching Little Nine's back, which was covered in sweat, Xu Jingniang got someone to bring warm water for her. She carefully wiped Little Nine's back and changed into clean clothes. Xu Jingniang couldn't help but laugh and kiss Little Nine's face as she stretched her limbs and slept soundly like a "big" character. This little girl, she even slept in such a tyrannical position and yet she was greedy for a drink.

Seeing that the old man, Mo Taiwu, and the others hadn't returned by the time they were due, Xu Jingniang and Mo Taiwen couldn't help but worry. According to the customs of the past years, the palace banquet should have been over by now.

Xu Jingniang and Mo Taiwen looked at each other with worry in their eyes. Xu Jingniang told Mo Pingchu and the rest to go back to their rooms first. Leaving Mo Pingchu at the back, she turned around and said, "Mother, why don't we wait for grandfather and the rest?"

Xu Jingniang waved her hand and said, "Your father and I will wait here for you. Go back to your room and sleep. We still need to get up early in the morning."

"But..." Mo Pingchu was sensitive to his parents' change. He had a bad premonition in his heart, which made him very worried.

Mo Taiwen looked at Mo Pingchu and whispered to Xu Jingniang, "If Little Five wants to stay, then let him stay. He's not young anymore, he should know how to handle some matters now."

Xu Jingniang looked at Mo Taiwen with disapproval. Little Five was only fourteen years old and was still a child.

Mo Taiwen looked deeply at Mo Pingchu and whispered to Xu Jingniang, "Jing Niang, Little Five is our eldest son!"

Xu Jingniang's heart trembled as she looked at Mo Pingchu with an unreadable expression. Mo Pingchu felt weird and smiled slightly at Xu Jingniang, "Mom, Dad is right. I'm the elder brother, so I naturally have to know more before I can take care of my brothers and sisters."

Xu Jingniang's heart was slightly troubled, but she didn't say anything more. She just gently stroked Mo Pingchu's head and realized that her son had unknowingly grown to be as tall as her.

Mo Taiwen sent someone to the palace gate to inquire about the situation. In less than a quarter of an hour, the people sent came back to report: The palace gate was under martial law; entry and exit were prohibited!

Xu Jingniang's heart skipped a beat. Mo Pingchu's face also darkened. Xu Jingniang didn't know what to do, so she asked Mo Taiwen in a trembling voice, "Did something happen?" Do you want to contact the people in the inner palace to ask about it? "
