"You're talking without any worries! You and Old Tang are so affectionate, but I don't like that!"
This sentence contained too much information, and the people in Ningxia widened their eyes.
Old Liao seemed to know that he had said something wrong, and looked at Li Gang but didn't dare to speak.
Li Gang clenched his fists uncomfortably. No matter when, the relationship between him and Tang Shian was not easily accepted by others, and he felt a little panicked.
Mu Yuanqing saw Li Gang's predicament and quickly spoke up to help. "What about Xiaojie's father? What did they say?"
The families had a good relationship, so after Xiaojie's matter was settled, Ningxia also told Mu Yuanqing's family about the situation.
Several people looked at Li Gang, waiting for his answer.
Seeing that his friend looked normal, without any contempt or asking any questions, Director Mo also remained indifferent, as if he didn't hear anything.
Li Gang felt a warm feeling in his heart, and he quietly loosened his clenched fists. "I went to send Xiaojie off. When Xiaojie left, he brought a large bag of things with him and asked us to pass it on to Xiaojie."
Old Liao also breathed a sigh of relief.
Ningxia raised an eyebrow, "Send it to Xiaojie? Would Xiaojie be willing?"
"He secretly followed the caravan under the guise of trade, and Xiaojie didn't know. But I guess Xiaojie knows something."
Ningxia nodded, "That's right, Xiaojie is so smart, and his father thinks so much of him, he definitely can't hide it."
Sangsang was silently crying, and Ningxia rolled her eyes.
Mu Yuanqing found it funny and quickly let go of Liu Qingtian to comfort her, "Don't cry, Sangsang. Your brother Xiaojie will be back soon after he finishes his studies."
As soon as Sangsang was comforted, she cried even harder, "Kesu... Uncle Nie... Brother Xiaojie won't be back for several winters... I miss Brother Xiaojie..."
Mo Guanshan tugged at her curly hair. Sangsang turned around and saw it was him. She glared at him fiercely, "Go away, squinty eyes! You're so annoying! I'm crying!"
Ningxia felt a headache when she saw the two people fighting again. She pinched Mo Guanshan's hard arm and glared at him to signal him to restrain himself. Otherwise, the little bastard would scream and howl like a ghost and need to drink sugar water to be coaxed. What would happen to his teeth?
She rolled her eyes again at Mo Guanshan's flattering smile, then got up to cook and get some quiet time.
Li Gang and others looked at each other in confusion. The commander was at home, so what was his status?
Mo Guanshan took back his big hand from Sangsang's head. It was furry and felt good. "Why cry about it? I'll write some paperwork later. Once the branch school is built here, I'll transfer him over."
Sangsang glared even more fiercely, "You wicked squinting eyes! You're bragging again! Hate you!"
Li Gang and the others' eyes lit up. That's right! Director Mo is the principal!
"Commander! The new school is already under construction! At the rate they're going, it'll be ready for use after the Fiery Sun Moon this year at the latest!"
Sangsang looked at the excited expressions of the others, then turned around and looked at Mo Guanshan in disbelief.
Mo Guanshan looked at her dazed expression, his eyes full of cheerfulness, "How about it? If you call me brother-in-law, I'll turn your Xiaojie brother over here."
Several adults also started to tease, "Sangbao, just call out, and your brother Xiaojie will come to spend the winter with you."
"That's right, Sangsang. Your brother Mo is the principal. You won't be at a disadvantage if he's your brother-in-law."
Sangsang was furious and stood up with his fists clenched. "I won't bark, I won't bark! Squint your eyes, squint your eyes, squint your eyes! Humph!" After saying that, he trotted into the house.
The adults in the yard all had smiles on their faces.
Liu Qingtian, who was standing by, saw Sister Sangsang go into the house angrily, and twisted his body to get out of bed.
Liu Ximu readily let go of the hand that was holding her.
Unexpectedly, the little girl did not go into the house to find Sangsang, but instead staggered to Mo Guanshan.
Mo Guanshan looked into the other person's big dark eyes, frowned, and pretended to be fierce, "Little Bean, what's the matter?"
Liu Qingtian screamed twice, waved his little fists and hit Mo Guanshan with an expression that showed he was fearless.
Mu Yuanqing suppressed his smile and pushed Liu Ximu, who stepped forward and lifted him up.
The little girl was full of strength. Looking at her posture, she was even going to twist her body and hit her father.
Mo Guanshan held his forehead and chuckled. How could this family treat people well? Could anyone, human or ghost, step on him?
Several adults in the yard couldn't help laughing out loud first, and then the whole yard was filled with laughter.
Li Gang and his companions looked at Mo Guanshan in front of them, and they felt less restrained. Commander, you are just like this at home. The real thing is to please the Ningxia girl.
Just as Li Gang expected, this group of people were in a mess all day long.
Especially after Mo Guanshan left the next day, they gradually became bolder and acted arrogantly towards Li Gang and his men. The coalition forces were helpless and often had to accept it with a wry smile, feeling extremely frustrated.
The men headed by Hu Hua were much more obedient and lived in a dilapidated wooden house near the pine forest. These grown men went into the mountains every day and no one knew what they were busy with. In just a few days, the wooden house gradually became more popular and looked less shabby.
The sowing progress of Ningxia's group was slow, mainly because Ningxia was a novice, and Mu Yuanqing and Liu Ximu knew nothing at all. They were groping as they went along, and since they were all novices, the progress naturally slowed down.
Several quick-witted families had already tidied up their houses and prepared their fields for planting. Ningxia and Mu Yuanqing's families were not even halfway done, but neither family was in a hurry.
That day, Ningxia and her group were about to finish work and go home when they saw from afar Li Gang and his group leading a large group of people walking towards them.
When they got closer, they saw that it was Liu Jun. Seeing him bringing his family with him, Ningxia and Mu Yuanqing looked at each other.
"Ningxia girl!"
"Brother Liu? You're back from the state capital so soon?"
Liu Jun smiled and nodded. "The horses in my caravan are all good horses. Plus, the road from the state capital to Mo Ning is now open, so a round trip of about ten days is enough."
"How's Xiaojie?"
There was a hint of bitterness in Liu Jun's smile. "The military academy didn't allow me to ask about it, and I didn't dare let him know. I came back after seeing him go in."
Li Gang patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you've seen the military academy. It's much better than the environment here. Xiaojie won't be able to endure the hardship there."
Liu Jun smiled at him gratefully.
Old Liao, who was standing next to him, looked very confused and obviously had some complaints about Liu Jun.
"By the way, Ningxia, I came here to tell you that Liu Jun is also going to settle in District 1."
Ningxia's eyes widened. "Isn't Brother Liu's caravan developing in Xuanwu Prefecture? Coming to the forest area?"
Liu Jun smiled and said, "I've moved the headquarters to Mo Ning's side! The second-in-command of our team is in charge of the caravan affairs in the city, and I'm going to retire and take a two-year break."
Ningxia blinked her eyes. Mo Ning was really going to develop. First, a road was built, then a military academy was built, and now Liu Jun's caravan of hundreds of people had also migrated here. The economy was going to be boosted a lot. The people in the upper echelons were probably grinning from ear to ear.
