Mo Yanzhi's facial expression became colder as he listened to Liu Lianlian's words.

Liu Cai was married by his father, Mo Guangning, a few months after Mo Yanzhi's adoptive daddy passed away. At that time, Liu Cai was two months pregnant.

Liu Cai gave birth to a he-man seven months after the marriage. The kid was named Mo Beizhi. The next year, she gave birth to a she-man, Liu Lianlian.

Liu Lianlian was three years younger than Mo Yanzhi.

However, big families cared about if the kids were born by the legal wife of a man. Because the legal wife's she-man would be arranged a better marriage than other she-men. Besides, it was an important factor that the fiancé would consider, because the legal wife's she-man would be the most important she-man in a family.

Mo Yanzhi was just an adopted child. There was no way that Liu Cai would allow Mo Yanzhi to be the first she-man of the legal wife. However, Mo Yanzhi was the oldest one in the family. In the end, Liu Cai thought of a way to make his biological son, Liu Lianlian, the first she-man of the legal wife. As Mo Yanzhi was a foster son, he had to respect daddy's decision. Although he was the older one, the age difference was not that big. Therefore, Mo Yanzhi was ranked behind Liu Lianlian in the family tree.

It was not uncommon in many large families, but not much. The Mo family was not a big family, but Liu Cai insisted on following the trends.

Liu Lianlian had been raised up by Liu Cai. Sometimes, he was more cunning than Liu Cai. When he was a child, he particularly did not like Mo Yanzhi, because Mo Yanzhi was just a foster child. Although Mo Yanzhi was the eldest she-man, he was forced to be a younger brother to Liu Lianlian. Therefore, Liu Cai usually called Mo Yanzhi 'younger brother' in front of others to humiliate him.

Of course, Liu Lianlian had addressed Mo Yanzhi " big brother" before. When he had made trouble when she was young and needed a black sheep to blame, he would call him big brother just in order to make himself helpless, filial, and gentle.

People also judged the behavior of Liu Cai. At that time, Mo Guangning almost didn't agree with Liu Cai because of the judgement. However, Liu Cai was successful in the end to put Liu Lianlian's name before Mo Yanzhi on the family tree!

Because of this, Liu Cai's reputation was not very good. Many people said that he was an overbearing shrew.

Sometimes, Liu Lianlian would deliberately call Mo Yanzhi "big brother" when they were outside. Of course, there must be people who knew their family's situation when he did this. In this way, Liu Lianlian was a sensible kid, making people think, even though he was titled the " big brother" in order not to upset his shrew daddy, he still showed respect to Mo Yanzhi when his daddy was not around.

Just like that, Liu Lianlian's reputation was much better than Liu Cai's!

In this way, there were really a lot of matchmakers who came to arrange marriages for Liu Lianlian, especially after Mo Yanzhi got married! Normally, the first she-man of the legal wife would be the first one to get married, unless the she-man was at least seven or eight years younger than other she-men. Mo Yanzhi was only three years older than Liu Lianlian. Liu Lianlian was fifteen years old this year, old enough to arrange a marriage for him.

Usually Liu Lianlian would be married before Mo Yanzhi because he was namely the first she-man of the legal wife.

However, the Mo family married Mo Yanzhi first. Even though the marriage was rather small, it was still a fact that Mo Yanzhi married before Liu Lianlian!

The rumor said that Mo Yanzhi's marriage was initiated by Liu Lianlian. Because Liu Cai didn't agree the marriage because he demanded ten taels of silver for betrothal gifts. In the end, Liu Lianlian, who claimed to be for his brother's "good", negotiated with Mo family and finally agreed on three taels of silver for betrothal gifts to make the deal. Mo family paid three taels of silver and the Mo Yanzhi was married.

After this, Liu Lianlian's reputation was even better! What a good she-man, gentle, sensible, virtuous, of course, a great keeper. Many families who had he-men at the age of marriage had visited for a marriage proposal.

What about the truth? It was true that Liu Cai demanded ten taels of silver for betrothal gifts. However, Han Tingxuan's father and daddy liked Mo Yanzhi because he was quiet, and he could do a lot of housework and heavy lifting work. They knew very well about their precious he-man who could not do so much work. Such a she-man was a great choice for him.

However, they would not be willing to pay for such an expensive male wife!

Ten taels of silver were a lot of money. Even if Mo Yanzhi came from a rich family, ten taels of silver were a decent amount for betrothal gifts! Besides, Mo Yanzhi had no dowry at all!

In the end, they bargained to three taels of silve. Liu Cai agreed because of Liu Lianlian's persuasion.

Thinking that it would be beneficial for his she-man's reputation, Liu Cai agreed!

Today, Liu Lianlian and Liu Cai came over, with the intention of "bullying" Mo Yanzhi.

Who was Mo Yanzhi? He was an invisible person in the Mo family, the one they could beat and yell at any time. Why was he so tough last time? Because he was supported by his husband. He must have been instigated by Han Tingxuan! This was a decision that Liu Lianlian and Liu Cai made after a discussion.

And today, they came to teach Mo Yanzhi a lesson and remind him of who he really was.
