Chapter 20 I Don’t Want to Be the Wife of the Householder
Early in the morning, because the weather was hot and they were afraid that people would die of heat if they were locked in the house, the escort allowed them to open the door and go to the corridor to enjoy the cool air. They could also visit other people for a while. As long as they didn't make any noise, no one would say anything.
The two Baoers pressed Feng Aoqing to sit on the steps, and they held her head and took turns blowing on her.
She told the children that she had fallen.
"Mom, does it hurt?" Xingbao asked.
"Yeah, it hurts a lot." Feng Aoqing pouted and nodded.
"Mom, look at me!" Yuebao shouted, "You have to walk up the stairs like this!"
After all, Yuebao was the daughter of a scholar family, and she had been taught how to sit, stand and walk since she was a child. She first walked down the stairs, then turned around, stood still, lifted her skirt, and slowly walked up the stairs.
"Mom, this way I won't fall." Yuebao said seriously.
"Mom understands." Feng Aoqing nodded seriously.
Mo Mingyuan came to invite Feng Aoqing, saying that Mo Beiyuan was looking for her.
The two babies also went to see their father.
"Dad, Mom fell and broke her head. It hurts so much. Can you blow on it for her?" Xingbao reported as soon as he entered the door.
Yuebao also nodded: "We have all done it, the only one left is Dad. Once Dad finishes, Mom's injury will be healed."
Child, no matter how you blow it, it won’t get better, Feng Aoqing smiled in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Mo Beiyuan stood up, embraced her, leaned over and blew gently on her wound.
"Dad blew it, and Mom's injury healed."
Feng Aoqing looked up at him. How could such a cold person interact with a child like this?
Jingtao took the two children out at the right time.
Mo Beiyuan closed the door and pointed to a package on the bed.
"Keep it and give some to Wei Ze today. Ask him to help you with whatever you need."
Feng Aoqing opened it and saw that it was a bag of silver.
Mo Beiyuan was still a little proud, thinking, see, I got you some silver, I won't let you go hungry anymore.
Unexpectedly, Feng Aoqing didn't take it.
She curled her lips and said, "You'd better go and honor your mother! If I took it, she would tear me apart! She would tell me eight hundred times a day that I spent all her son's money."
We don't need it at all. We have plenty of money.
Moreover, even if there is no silver, there will be silver if there is a city.
Mo Beiyuan pushed the wallet forward and said, "You are the wife of the head of the Mo family. The family's money should be in your hands. Don't worry, if she says anything bad about you, I will stand by you."
"Oh, no need for that. I'm afraid I'll get angry and kill her. Besides, I don't want to be the head of the family's family. Whoever wants to be the head of the family can take the position. I'll give up the position at any time."
Mo Beiyuan watched her stride out of the room, a nameless rage rising in his heart.
Isn't this humble enough? What else does she want?
"Mo Nanzhou!" He shouted, his breath was short due to the injury, and he started coughing.
Mo Nanzhou was in a daze on the steps. When he heard his brother's shout, he immediately ran in.
Mo Beiyuan handed the bag of silver to Mo Nanzhou.
They won't leave today.
Jiang Yi will go to the state to exchange documents and explain the circumstances of those who died or escaped. The government office may need to ask more questions, so it will take some time.
Except for the two people left behind to guard the prisoners, the other escorts would go to the city to buy some supplies, because they only had supplies for thirty prisoners. The twenty-member team of the Mo family was added just before departure, so they were short of things.
Mo Nanzhou was still capable of doing things. He went to ask everyone in the Mo family what they wanted. Not only did they ask about food, but everyone also wanted to buy a change of clothes and some handkerchiefs.
Mo Nanzhou also made a list of things such as tinder and oilcloth for camping outdoors.
While I was busy, my second uncle and aunt from the second house came over.
Second uncle Mo Zhengqi said with a shameless face: "Nanzhou! You all have more clothes, so please give us some too. It doesn't have to be too many, just one set for each person."
"Second uncle! Have you forgotten that we have already separated? How can I buy things for you again? It's not right." Mo Nanzhou said hurriedly.
"No, then your silver is not the Mo family's property, so we must divide it into three parts and take one part away!" Mo Zhengqi said as he was about to take action.
"Hey, uncle! You can't say that! When we divided the family, we said that the Mo family no longer had any assets, and you all accepted it! Besides, this money was secretly sent by my brother's friend. How can it be considered an asset?"
"I don't care, we must..."
"Jin Ge, if we die, we don't have to eat, wear clothes, or spend money?" Feng Aoqing happened to pass by the door, so she stepped back and asked An Jin Ge beside her.
"Of course. They're all worthless lives that have been exiled. We don't have to spend money on coffins. We can just dig a hole and bury them." An Jinge immediately understood.
"Digging a hole is such a hassle. Just throwing it in the back mountain and feeding it to wild dogs can be considered a good deed." Feng Aoqing replied again.
"Feng Aoqing! What's your business?" Fang Nianqiao rushed to the door and asked.
"Let me remind you that the only serious criminals in the Mo family are Mo Beiyuan, Feng Aoqing, my son Mo Xingchen, and my daughter Mo Yueyao! As for the others, there's no need to identify them now that they're dead!"
Feng Aoqing spoke word by word to the people in the room.
Everyone knows that two people died in the woods. They were not serious criminals, so no one bothered to bury them and they were just left there.
Fang Nianqiao had obviously thought of it. She trembled, went back into the house, started crying, and began to scold her good son.
"You! You are going too far!" Mo Zhengqi was extremely anxious.
"Uncle, whoever bullies whom!"
"Second brother, sister-in-law, you are asking for trouble, and your son is not doing well, so you can't blame anyone else!"
Chen Yilan had just finished visiting her son and was now standing next to Feng Aoqing with a smug look on her face.
Seeing her coming, Feng Aoqing immediately walked away, lest they start fighting and get hurt accidentally.
Unexpectedly, Chen Yilan did not go in and fight with the people from the second house, but called Feng Aoqing.
"Feng Aoqing."
"I'm happy today and don't want to make trouble with you. If you want your son to live two more days, just be quiet." Feng Aoqing didn't even turn around and didn't want to pay any attention to her.
"I'm sorry."
"Huh?" Feng Aoqing thought she had misheard.
"I accidentally hurt you yesterday. I didn't mean it."
Chen Yilan gritted her teeth and apologized, but her words were not sincere, because her daughter said that if she didn't apologize, she would not take the medicine and let herself rot to death.
Could it be that Feng Aoqing couldn't hear this tone? She smiled lightly: "No need to apologize. I won't let go of my grudge just because you apologized. I will take revenge one by one."
"You're shameless, aren't you?"
"Yeah, you give me a stinky face, don't."
"you!"
Mo Shuyuan grabbed her mother and looked at Mo Beiyuan's room.
For the sake of her son, Chen Yilan kept her mouth shut.
"Mom, have you noticed that my brother's attitude towards this woman has changed? For my brother, we have to look for opportunities in the future..."
"Yuan'er, you are right. Could it be that she gave your elder brother some kind of drug? She is capable of doing it! We need to be on guard against her!" Chen Yilan also noticed the changes in her son.
"Well, anyway, when we get to Yanguang, with my eldest brother's ability, can he still be a coolie? You can find him a wife then. Although there are no great families there, there are always daughters of wealthy families. They are beautiful, well-behaved, and sensible. There must be some."
"Yuan'er, mother thinks so too."
The mother and daughter held hands together.
