It has a head that doesn't quite look like a triangle, two large, different circles, a long body, and a strange tail.

Looking at what he had made, and then at what his mother had made, the little guy fell silent.

It's difficult.

After steaming it, the little guy ate it all; he made it himself!

Mom is really amazing.

The little one's eyes were filled with admiration, but also with a sense of how hard his mother worked.

Children shouldn't be sheltered in a greenhouse; they also need to know the hardships their parents face.

They stayed upstairs at the shop that night, and this place was also a good option for accommodation.

Lin Xiaoxu woke up from a nap, rubbed her eyes, and found that her mother was still writing and drawing.

"Mom, what are you doing?"

"What kind of image do you like of me in flower-shaped pastries?"

Lin Xiaoxu thought for a moment, "I want a cute, chubby dog..."

"good."

"It's gray, with some black on its ears. Its tail is gray..."

"Mom, can I feed the dog?"

At this point, Lin Xiaoxu hesitated to look at her mother, afraid that her mother would disagree.

"You're raising a puppy?" Mo Yan felt that the dog he was talking about sounded familiar, like the little mixed-breed dog that no one wanted at the pet store next door?

"Hmm, I want to raise one, Mom, will you let me?" He had mentioned it to his dad before, but his dad said that his mom would never let him raise one.

"If you want to raise a puppy, you have to treat it as your family member, take care of it, and keep it company. Can you do that?"

Whether it's sick or naughty, you can't abandon it; you still need to bathe it and feed it. Can you do that?

Mo Yan didn't disagree; instead, she asked him very seriously if he could take care of the puppy and if he would abandon it.

"Won't!"

Lin Xiaoxu looked at his mother with surprise; it turned out his mother wouldn't disagree. He assured her with a firm gaze.

"Mom, I promise you, I will take good care of the puppy. I won't abandon it. Will you let me keep it?"

"Okay, I'll take you to see the puppies tomorrow. Then we'll decide whether or not you should keep them."

Although her mother didn't agree immediately, Lin Xiaoxu was already very happy.

"Mmm." So Mom did love him after all.

"Mom, I will be very good from now on. Thank you for letting me have a dog."

"Now you should go to sleep." Mo Yan urged him to go to sleep quickly.

"Mmm-hmm." Lin Xiaoxu obediently replied. Mo Yan checked the time; it was already two o'clock.

Things outside must be getting impatient.

As a master of metaphysics, it seems that he can easily utilize ghosts and monsters.

Now, downstairs, there are several ghosts floating around, deliberately making noise in order to scare Mo Yan.

Or rather, it would be best to scare Mo Yan into a frenzy.

Lin Xiaoxu fell asleep, and only then did Mo Yan go downstairs.

I went out of the courtyard gate and looked at those things.

"Tell me, where did you come from?"

Mo Yan looked at them casually, thinking about what she would do to them later.

Should we make it into twisted dough sticks or tofu cubes?

"You can see us?"

"I can not only see you, I'm going to kill you?"

Mo Yan took direct action and turned them into a pile of rubble.

"Please let us go, please let us go, someone sent us here."

“Go find whoever gave you permission, and teach them a lesson, or I’ll make sure you’re all wiped out.”

Those things just ran away.

Lin Wan'er and Lin An did not leave the county town; instead, they went to another place.

That was the house Lin An rented for the mother and daughter, saying it would allow the child to attend school in the county town.

All along, it's unclear whether the original owner was too foolish or Lin An was too clever, but the original owner never realized it.

Or perhaps the original owner didn't love Lin An that much, otherwise she would have discovered it long ago.

In those days, most marriages were arranged by matchmakers. As long as two people liked each other, they could be together, and then immediately start the process of proposing marriage, getting engaged, and having a wedding.

Maybe I won't see what she looks like until the day of my wedding.

I once heard a story about a couple who met through a blind date. On their wedding day, the man had to go on a mission, so the woman took a taxi home. When she got out of the taxi, she asked for money, and the man said, "I am your husband."

This situation is very common; many couples live together without any emotional foundation, just making do.

The original owner was only thinking about the pastry shop and Lin Xiaoxu; she didn't really care about anything else.

Of course, the original owner didn't care about family problems, but Lin An, who tricked her into marriage, had even more problems.

You're already with your sister-in-law, you should just get married. But having a child and then trying to trick her into marriage is problematic.

Now look what's happened—his own daughter is trying to scheme against Mo Yan...

Mo Yan went directly to their rented house with your things.

Didn't Lin Wan'er want her to be scared? Then let her experience that feeling too.

With a snap of her fingers, Mo Yan orchestrated a real massacre in their house.

They were forced to witness how those people died, how they became ghosts, and how they lived as ghosts. Then those ghosts rushed towards the family of three.

They would tear at their flesh, bite after bite, as if they had already ripped their flesh off.

The pain reached my very bones, and I felt as if my bones had turned ice-cold.

[System! System! Didn't you say these ghosts wouldn't hurt me? Help!]

The system was also trembling. It was just helping its host, but it didn't expect to be targeted again. It didn't dare to move at all.
