A noble嫡女 (legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official) is framed and falls to the borderlands, losing her memory and becoming a farmer's wife. Su Nanxi arrives with a space (a mystical ...
Mo Qinghe's expression changed instantly. "Wife, think again, what was your original name?"
Seeing that he looked unwell, Su Nanxi did not refuse. She tried to recall for a while, but still couldn't remember anything. On the contrary, she felt particularly uncomfortable whenever she tried to recall, her head ached terribly, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Mo Qinghe didn't miss any changes in her expression. He saw his wife frown as she thought about something, and her face turned pale and bluish-white in no time. She was also sweating on her forehead. He felt extremely distressed and took her hand to comfort her.
"Honey, if you can't remember, then don't think about it. Here, let me wipe your sweat. Don't think about it anymore. Your face is all pale, it breaks my heart to see you like this! Don't think about it anymore. The name doesn't matter, as long as it's you, that's enough."
Mo Qinghe panicked and his words became incoherent. He didn't care about names anymore; he just wanted his wife to be alright.
He knew his wife had lost her memory and couldn't remember anything from before, but he still had a sliver of hope that she would remember her name, since a name carries a lot of information for a person.
But seeing his wife lost in her memories, desperately searching but always getting blocked, unable to find the root of her pain, he suddenly felt that he was too selfish. If his wife remembered, she would definitely tell him. But he couldn't think of how to tell her!
Su Nanxi was indeed in a very bad mood. Whenever she tried to search for her memories, she would fall into a strange fog. All around her was a vast expanse of white mist. She couldn't find any memories, let alone how to return to the starting point. After a while, she started to panic.
That's why she doesn't want to remember the original owner's memories!
When Su Nanxi recovered, she found herself leaning against Mo Qinghe's chest. Mo Qinghe was holding her tightly with both arms, and she was also hugging Mo Qinghe's strong waist.
This embrace is quite warm and spacious, and it's quite comfortable to lean against. My face is pressed against his chest, and I can hear his steady and powerful heartbeat through my right ear. This feeling is really nice!
She suddenly didn't want to let go, somewhat greedy for this warm and romantic feeling, so she closed her eyes and hugged Mo Qinghe even tighter.
Mo Qinghe thought she was scared, so he tightened his hands, trying to comfort her through intimate contact.
The two were cuddling inside, while the people outside waited for a while but no one came out, which puzzled them. Mo Yunmei muttered a few words, and Old Madam Mo, worried that something had happened, decided to knock on the door.
The knocking woke the two people inside from their pleasant atmosphere; Grandma Mo's voice reminded them that it was time to go out.
Su Nanxi smiled sheepishly. She had come to call someone but had forgotten about this, and now someone else had to come and call her again.
She quickly helped Mo Qinghe sit back in his wheelchair. She didn't know how long she had been standing, but most of her weight was still on him. His legs must have been under a lot of pressure. How could he bear it?
Mo Qinghe obediently sat down and said to Su Nanxi with a smile, "Let's listen to our wife and go out. Everyone must be getting impatient."
The people outside didn't have to wait long; they were busy with other things while they waited.
Wang Shi and Zhou Yuzhu weren't bothered by it. They already knew about the mute girl's status in the Mo family last time. The mute girl had even given them an expensive gift, which was quite rare. Many people wanted to buy it after they took it back! This really boosted their reputation!
So they were willing to wait, and it wouldn't be too long, because Old Lady Mo felt sorry for the mute girl who was hungry.
However, Qiu Huiling didn't know that she disliked ugly people, so she disliked Su Nanxi from the bottom of her heart. Seeing that the Mo family still gave way to Su Nanxi in every way, she was even more disdainful.
Such an air of superiority, making so many people wait, with no sense of propriety whatsoever, where is this upbringing?
Because of the large number of people present, and in order to maintain a gentle, charming, and understanding image, Qiu Huiling did not reveal her inner thoughts at all.
When Qiu Huiling saw Su Nanxi pushing Mo Qinghe over, her eyes widened instantly. She found it unbelievable that there could be such a handsome and refined person in a rural family.
Thinking he was seeing things, he blinked and looked again—it was real! The person got closer and looked even more clearly; their good looks became even more obvious!
Qiu Huiling heard her heartbeat quicken, faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest, and she felt a little flustered!
She had seen many handsome, dashing, and debonair men, but in her discerning eyes, she always felt that something was missing from them, that their charm wasn't something emanating from them.
The person I see in the farmhouse today, though dressed in simple clothes, exudes an aura and charm that cannot be hidden. This is truly extraordinary!
It's a little disappointing. It would have been even better if this person had run towards her with strong legs, but unfortunately he was in a wheelchair!
At this moment, Qiu Huiling was unable to conceal her inner thoughts well. Su Nanxi and Mo Qinghe, with their keen eyes, saw through Qiu Huiling's inner thoughts at a glance.
Grandma Mo didn't notice Qiu Huiling; her attention was mainly focused on her third son and daughter-in-law.
Grandma Mo waved her hand, "Everyone, please sit down. Now that everyone is here, let's get ready to eat!"
Everyone enjoyed the meal. There was plenty of meat, and everyone was able to eat several pieces. There were also many vegetables, some of which looked ordinary, but tasted delicious!
Grandma Mo kept urging Qiu Huiling to eat more vegetables, and Qiu Huiling smiled politely and actually picked up a few pieces of meat.
She felt a mix of emotions. The Mo family was so poor, so why could they eat so much meat and such delicious vegetables?
She and her mother are living in extreme poverty. They haven't eaten meat in a long time, and even their vegetables are just wild greens that don't taste good. They're just boiled without oil or salt.
What's going on with the Mo family? Did they take on a job and then skim off the food from it?
That's a pretty good job, at least you can sneak in some extra cash!
Unlike her, who had to find work everywhere, her mother was sick and couldn't do much, so she was the one who almost always held on. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come here with Wang to watch others make rice noodles.
She felt a tightness in her chest. She was all alone and helpless, while the Mo family was large and united, and they didn't have to worry about food or drink. This comparison made her feel bad.
Su Nanxi noticed Qiu Huiling's changing expression, but didn't pay much attention. There were quite a few people like that, and she couldn't be bothered with them.
But Su Nanxi became unhappy when she noticed that Qiu Huiling would always sneak glances at Mo Qinghe out of the corner of her eye while picking up food.
What's going on? What are you trying to do?
Trying to poach someone's partner?
She was quite pretty, but her gentle demeanor seemed more affected than genuine, making the woman want to look away immediately.
If Mo Qinghe really likes this woman, he's incredibly short-sighted and blind!
Mo Qinghe, however, ate his meal calmly and didn't pay attention to anything else. Only when his wife secretly glanced at him did he react. He looked at his wife, picked up a piece of meat, and put it into her bowl.
Su Nanxi lowered her eyes and began to eat happily.
"Yuqing, could you teach us how to make rice noodles?"
