Chapter 280: He was sent back, wasn't he?

Gao Yuling knew that her older brother wouldn't be back anytime soon, so she decisively ran out again.

She didn't wander off; her destination was clear: the place where Master Chen and his group planted sweet potato vines.

She learned the exact location from the constable and found it herself without the constable's guidance.

The constables knew Gao Yuling's temperament; if they didn't tell her, the roof might be blown off! When the adults returned, they wouldn't name the culprit, but they would definitely say that he couldn't even handle such a small matter!

Besides, this wasn't a secret; everyone in the county government knew about it, because they would take care of the sweet potato vines whenever they had a spare moment!

Although Gao Yuling is usually quite boisterous, she is very clear-headed when it comes to important matters, which is why these yamen runners are not worried about her causing trouble.

Sigh! What's the use of worrying?

If the young lady wants to cause trouble, can they stop her?

Only an adult can keep her in check when they return!

They're just small fry; they can't possibly exert any real power!

Gao Yuling rode off on horseback and soon arrived at her destination. After dismounting, she ran directly into the field.

Why are you so sure it's here?

Is there even a need to ask?

This field is covered with newly planted sweet potato vines, all sprouting new shoots, tender and full of life under the sun.

The soil in the field wasn't very dry, and there were still watermarks at the base of the sweet potato vines, indicating that someone had watered them before. It seems these people take good care of the sweet potato vines.

Gao Yuling walked around carefully, not caring about getting her shoes dirty, and stepped directly into the mud, occasionally turning over the soil with her hands to check.

Hmm! Su Su kept wondering if the sweet potato vines she sent out had survived. It would be such a pity if they all died! Today, she came to check on Su Su's behalf and made sure she looked carefully so she could talk to Su Su about it later!

Hehe! Su Su will definitely be very happy!

Most of the sweet potato vines have survived and even sprouted roots and leaves. If they are properly cared for, they should soon cover the ground.

Su Su's sweet potato vines weren't wasted; Master Chen and his ilk are reliable after all!

If it doesn't work out and wastes so many of Su Su's potato vines, she'll definitely make a big fuss about it!

By the way, go check if there's water in this ditch, and where the water came from. The more she knows, the better. If Su Su suddenly asks her and she can't answer, Su Su will definitely be disappointed.

Gao Yuling looked into everything she could think of and everything Su Nanxi might want to know, regardless of whether it was useful or not. Just being prepared would prevent her from being caught off guard!

After finishing her business, Gao Yuling wasn't in such a hurry to return. She leisurely rode her horse back, and when she arrived at the county government office, she heard that her elder brother had returned.

He was overjoyed inside, but on the surface he remained leisurely, as if he didn't look forward to his brother's return at all. When he saw Gao Yuchen, he just lazily called out "Brother".

Gao Yuchen's initial joy turned sour upon seeing his younger sister!

Why did this troublemaker come back?

Even the Mo family can't suppress them!

Hmph! I knew she wouldn't stay more than a few days. She must have been too noisy and got kicked out. Look at her pitiful face, that's probably it!

Hmm! We need to find another place for her to cause trouble!

Gao Yuling was unaware that her older brother was secretly trying to get rid of her. She had originally wanted to tease him, but when she saw the look in his eyes, she got angry.

Don't think she doesn't know what he's thinking! That expression...does he think she can't understand it?!

They're truly siblings; they can decipher each other's expressions with just a single glance!

Gao Yuling huffed, "Hmph! You guys are so annoying! You're not allowed to eat any of the delicious food I brought back!"

Gao Yuchen's eyes lit up, and even Chen Shiye, who was trying to keep a low profile and be invisible, had a bright look in his eyes!

Is it delicious?

This girl must have brought back some delicious food from the Mo family when she came back!

Given the enthusiasm of the Mo family elders, they must have stuffed her with plenty!

Yes! They definitely have meatballs, fried meat, and braised meat!

They were saying this morning that they hadn't smelled meat for days and were hoping to have some today, and they actually did!

It must be that the Bodhisattva heard their heartfelt words, and out of compassion for their hard work for the people, granted their wish!

"Who made my Ling'er angry? They have no sense at all! My Ling'er is so smart and lovely, how could you bear to make her angry! Don't be angry! In a little while, your brother will teach them a lesson and avenge you!"

Gao Yuchen's expression changed instantly; he became serious and put on an act of standing up for his sister. An uninformed person might actually believe him!

But actually, Gao Yuling understood perfectly well, and couldn't help but roll her eyes. Her brother had said this line of reasoning countless times, it was so outdated, and he didn't even know how to change it!

Gao Yuchen snorted, "What's the point of changing it? As long as it works!"

And it was true. In the end, Gao Yuling lost. She was no match for her brother and was quickly defeated. She then happily ran to get some food.

Gao Yuchen and Master Chen finally got to eat the meat they had been longing for!

Kao Yu-ling was also happy because her older brother praised her!

Sigh! It's all because she brought back some delicious food!

Su Nanxi did not pick up Gao Yuling to go back together. She was busy running around, visiting several places, and by the time she finished her business, the sun was already setting.

She hadn't planned to take Gao Yuling back with her, so after finishing her business, she rode a donkey back by herself.

Once back, with Gao Yuling not by her side, Su Nanxi simply stopped pretending. She told the donkey to walk back carefully, then fell silent and resumed her daydreaming.

The donkey groaned. Luckily, it knew the way, otherwise it would have led its owner into a ravine, which would have been terrible!

This owner is really too carefree!

It's just a donkey, how can you be so trusting!

Sigh! I'm so worried!

Fortunately, its owner treated it well and gave it good food when it got home, so it accepted it!

When Su Nanxi returned home, only a wisp of sunset remained on the horizon.

The Mo family was waiting for her to come back for dinner, and they all stood up when she returned.

It's no wonder they were worried. Su Nanxi had been gone all day, and it was getting dark, but she still hadn't returned. Any normal person would be worried!

The most worried person was Mo Qinghe. He kept staring at the gate, holding a book in his hand, but he didn't turn a single page for a long time.

Upon seeing his wife appear, he threw down his book, strode out, and rushed forward to check if she was injured.

Su Nanxi understood. "I'm fine! I'm back safe and sound, without any injuries! Don't worry! I have a secret weapon, so it's not so easy to bully me!"

Mo Qinghe secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It's good that you're alright!

He didn't know why, but he had been feeling vaguely restless since the afternoon, with a feeling that something might happen to his wife, and that she might be injured and bleeding!

This feeling wouldn't go away, making him very irritable and restless.

"Wife, take me with you next time!"
