Su Nanxi shook her head, not remembering.

Mo Qinghe took her hand and comforted her, "It's okay, you'll remember it slowly in the future. Don't worry, I was just asking casually, don't take it to heart."

Pshaw! She doesn't care at all, and even if she remembers, what can she do?

The two lay on the bed to rest when Su Nanxi remembered something and started scratching Mo Qinghe's hand.

"Okay, then honey, be careful out tomorrow. Come back as soon as you've finished. Honey, actually I wanted to go with you!"

Su Nanxi disagreed. Who knows how long it would take or how far they would have to walk? What if they damaged their legs from walking too much?

Absolutely not!

Having already been injured once, any further damage could be extremely difficult to handle!

It's no big deal if I don't get better this time. I can follow along with it every day once I'm completely healed!

Mo Qinghe pouted. He couldn't go out with his wife again. Another sad day!

Su Nanxi pinched his cheek. "Alright, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. If I don't bring him, who else can I bring?"

Mo Qinghe's eyes lit up. "Oh right! My wife can only take him!"

So he stopped worrying about it, took his wife's hand, closed his eyes, and rested.

Mo Yunmei was conflicted. She didn't know what kind of dowry she should prepare. She felt that anything valuable in the family could be used as a dowry, but her mother would definitely not give her everything and would let her choose one.

She didn't know what to choose. She wanted the recipe, she wanted money, and she also wanted chickens, ducks, pigs, rabbits, and geese!

Wild animals are often caught at home, sometimes in huge numbers. It's such a waste to always slaughter them for the craftsmen to eat. It would be much better to raise them and send them to her when she gets married. A whole flock of them would be very impressive!

As long as Jin Hua makes the arrangements, someone will come to propose marriage and bring betrothal gifts. She is going to marry into a wealthy family, so she can't appear petty. Having more dowry items will help stabilize her position in her husband's family.

Mo Yunmei couldn't sleep well, she kept thinking about these things.

She was still forced to work in the afternoon, which made her even more determined in her choice. She didn't want to stay in a farmhouse, she didn't want to work, she wanted to live a life where someone would wait on her at all times!

As the sun set and everyone went home, Mo Yunmei was the last to slowly stroll back. She had intended to go find Zhao Jinhua, but someone stopped her.

Mo Yunmei exchanged a few words with that person, then was so frightened that she ran back as fast as she could, probably the fastest she had ever run in her life.

Su Nanxi returned to the Mo family home, took Mo Qinghe's hand, and told him what had happened.

"Did Li Haisheng just come to see Mo Yunmei?"

Su Nanxi nodded and took a sip of water.

"Wife, you rest for a while, I'll tell my parents."

Mo Qinghe went and told Old Man Mo, and soon the adults in the family all knew, and their faces darkened.

As expected, Li Haisheng is still restless. With only a few days left, he actually broke the agreement and went to find Mo Yunmei in private, and even went to recognize her!

Boss Mo gritted his teeth, "From now on, we need to keep a close eye on her and make sure she doesn't cause any trouble in the last few days!"

Mo Lao Er thought further ahead, "I think Li Haisheng has a conspiracy. He's willing to break the agreement to secretly recognize her, probably because he wants to do something unseen through Mo Yunmei!"

Grandma Mo agreed with Second Brother Mo. She had a good understanding of Li Haisheng. "Second Brother guessed right. I always felt that Li Haisheng wouldn't be so well-behaved. He would always cause trouble. With the agreed time approaching, he got anxious. If he didn't make a move now, he might not have another chance. That's why he came secretly."

What Li Haisheng had to do with the Mo family was something only he knew. He wasn't someone who stayed indoors all the time; on the contrary, he was someone who wandered around everywhere and knew quite a lot. He even knew where the dogs were fighting!

Finally, it was decided that everyone would secretly keep an eye on Mo Yunmei and prevent her from having any further contact with Li Haisheng.

Mo Yunmei hid under her blankets, unable to come to her senses for a long time. She was so shocked that she couldn't even feel her soul return.

She's not actually from the Mo family!

So, if she gets married, will she still be able to take her dowry with her from the Mo family? No, will the Mo family still prepare a dowry for her?

Mo Yunmei's biggest concern was her dowry. She really wanted to take the Mo family's valuables with her; she liked them and needed them very much!

She disliked the man who claimed to be her father; he was too ugly, skinny, and his eyes made people feel uncomfortable!

Why isn't she a member of the Mo family? Why does she have another family?

What was that family like? Why didn't that so-called father mention it at all?

Oh right! She also has a father, so does that mean that her marriage was ultimately decided by her father?

Stimulated, Mo Yunmei's mind came to work, and she began to think and analyze. Suddenly, she felt dizzy and weak all over because she had a premonition that her life might not be so free anymore!

Mo Yunmei's intuition was correct, but she was powerless to change it.

She suddenly felt resentment towards Old Lady Mo for not telling her the truth sooner, catching her off guard and leaving her completely unprepared!

No! She didn't want to be in such a passive position!

Mo Yunmei finally decided to ask Zhao Jinhua for help. She wanted to marry into the town as quickly as possible so that no one could change her life!

At night, after everyone had gone to sleep, Mo Yunmei secretly went out to find Zhao Jinhua.

Zhao Jinhua hadn't slept. Hearing Mo Yunmei calling from the window, she got up, but her face didn't look good. What was she doing not sleeping so late at night?

After hearing Mo Yunmei's words, Zhao Jinhua was in a great mood. "Perfect timing! I'm going back to town tomorrow. I'll definitely take care of things for you. Within three days, someone will definitely propose marriage to you. The betrothal gifts will be sent over at the same time. You can stay home and take care of your health to become a bride!"

Mo Yunmei went back home with a heart full of joy.

She thought no one had noticed she had gone out at night, and went back to sleep happily.

Su Nanxi then returned to the Mo family home, entered the house, and took Mo Qinghe's hand, gesturing with it.

Mo Qinghe's expression remained unchanged, presumably he had already anticipated what would happen, and he remained calm.

"This Zhao Jinhua used to be timid and cowardly. I never would have guessed that after being a rich man's wife for a few years, she would become so audacious! She even targets acquaintances and dares to lay her hands on the Mo family! Daughter-in-law, chop off her hands!"

Su Nanxi raised an eyebrow; that was exactly what she wanted to do!

However, she felt that Zhao Jinhua alone could not have accomplished this. The matter seemed simple, but it was actually a complex web of interconnected steps. She didn't believe that Zhao Jinhua had anyone backing her!

Perhaps the old man she married was one of the masterminds behind it all.

Su Nanxi had indeed heard that some older men have a special fetish for liking fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls, who are young, tender, and fresh. Such men have existed throughout history!

Even when Chen Qiuxia is pregnant, someone still wants her, tsk tsk!

Zhao Jinhua is truly kind-hearted; she helped her sister escape her misery, only to push her further into the abyss!

I heard that girls in the village had been sold before, and I suspect Zhao Jinhua was involved in some of those cases.

"Wife, do you think the disappearances of girls in the village in the past might also be related to Zhao Jinhua?"
