Chapter 88: Stealing Something I Shouldn't Have
"He just left. He said he had a severe stomachache and went to find a place to relieve himself." Mo Hongtao replied.
Fang Nianqiao picked up the clothes that originally belonged to Sun Lingzhu and Ruier's clothes and handed them to her son.
"Go, send it to his mother and mother. Are they really going to get a divorce? Go and coax him! When we're exiled, where will I find you a wife? How will I even have grandchildren?"
Mo Hongyi certainly wanted to. Sun Lingzhu was well-educated and well-mannered. How could he go to the place of exile to marry a peasant woman? But Sun Lingzhu was determined. He tried to show his interest several times, but was rejected directly.
He took the things and went to find Sun Lingzhu.
When he reached the door, he saw An Jinge standing guard at the door and was a little scared, so he called out to the inside: "Lingzhu!"
Sun Lingzhu walked to the door holding the child, and was unwilling to even step over the threshold.
"Come out."
"Say it right here."
"My mother's family sent some things over, so I'm sending some clothes for you and Rui'er." Mo Hongyi patted the clothes in his hands.
"No need. Rui'er and I have clothes to wear. I can't use the Fang family's things." Unexpectedly, Sun Lingzhu flatly refused.
"Don't be angry. It's always better to have more things now."
"First, I don't need anything. My sister-in-law has already prepared some for Rui'er and me. Rui'er's underwear is even made of silk, better than Xingbao and Yuebao's. Second, even if I need something, I don't want yours."
Sun Lingzhu was dead in her heart and would not give him any more chances.
Mo Hongyi was so angry that he could only go back in disappointment.
Seeing her son return with his belongings intact, Fang Nianqiao said bitterly, "What an ungrateful thing! She's really having an affair! If she dares to marry someone else in the future, I'll fight her! Rui'er can only have the surname Mo!"
"Mom, stop talking! Let her do what she wants! I won't have the nerve to go to her again!" Mo Hongyi took a pancake and sat in the corner to eat it.
The family didn't eat much because the escort had informed them earlier that they could also eat the porridge outside, so they had to save their rations.
When the porridge was distributed, Feng Aoqing and the others were already full and did not eat any more.
Everyone knew that Lord Han had sent food.
After a while, someone knocked on the door again.
"It can't stop today?! This time it must be a sleeping item." Tian Ying'er said with a smile.
She went to open the door and saw quite a few new bamboo mats outside.
"Master Mo, this is what Lord Han ordered to be sent to you for use tonight." The soldier repeated what Han Lang had said.
Mo Beiyuan felt very uncomfortable. This was probably not for him!
But now, he needs these things, and he has no way to take care of the Mo family. Now someone is taking care of them for him, and he can only accept it.
Feng Aoqing saw that it was getting dark and the house was full of swarms of mosquitoes, which were chasing the children and Mo Nanzhou.
Mo Nanzhou had already started jumping around in the room. She walked over and asked quietly, "Did you lose the medicine I gave you?"
She had previously given Mo Nanzhou a mosquito repellent.
Mo Nanzhou nodded embarrassedly, then shook his head.
"What do you mean? In or out?"
"Give it to Jin Ge. She also attracts bugs." Mo Nanzhou whispered.
"You deserve it! Why don't you ask me for it? Your eyes will be so swollen tomorrow that you won't be able to see the road clearly." Feng Aoqing said in surprise, and then took out another bottle from the space and handed it to him.
"Put it away, put it away quickly!" Mo Nanzhou hurriedly pushed the medicine away.
"You...you are not! Are you sick?! If you ask me for medicine tomorrow, I won't give it to you!"
Feng Aoqing immediately guessed that he wanted to use a cruel trick on himself.
Mo Nanzhou clasped his hands together and begged for mercy.
All right, all right! I’ll bite you to death!
She told everyone to go find some herbs. Of course, there were no herbs here. She just needed to find a haystack and take some herbs out from the space.
The thing that can repel mosquitoes is mugwort. Fortunately, it is really found in this area and it is not something that came out of thin air.
After picking up a bundle, she saw Mo Beiyuan come over silently to help her pick it up.
"Thank you." Feng Aoqing whispered.
"Do you want to be so polite to me?" Mo Beiyuan couldn't stand being so unfamiliar with her.
"You still have to be polite."
"How do you explain such dry leaves?"
"We light it right outside the door so they don't have a chance to see it."
"Understood."
The two were walking back when they looked up and saw Mo Mingyuan and Tian Ying'er. Usually they competed in martial arts, but at this moment, something on the tree must have attracted them and they were competing to climb up the tree!
"Mingyuan, it seems that you like Miss Tian a little." Mo Beiyuan saw it and said.
"You saw it all? Why didn't Ying'er react at all?" Feng Aoqing asked puzzledly.
"My Mo family will eventually return to Beijing...her status..."
"Do you think everyone is you? You should marry someone useful, not someone you like." Feng Aoqing became very angry when she heard this.
"Ao Qing, that's not what I meant."
"They knew each other from humble beginnings, and they don't dislike each other. I think this is more important than anything else. Mingyuan is braver than you. If you want to stop this, I can't do anything about it. All I can say is, I look down on you."
She didn't give Mo Beiyuan a chance to speak again and quickly left the area of the tree so that Mo Mingyuan and Tian Ying'er could be alone.
The two people in the tree are rescuing a nest of hungry baby birds.
Just now, Tian Ying'er heard cicadas chirping in the tree, so she thought of catching two for her two babies to play with.
Unexpectedly, just as she reached the tree, something fell in front of her. She subconsciously caught it and realized it was a bird that had just grown feathers. She jumped onto the tree.
Mo Mingyuan, who had been watching her from a distance, didn't know what she caught. Fearing that there was danger, he hurried over.
Now the two of them put their heads together and looked at the bird in the nest.
"The nest is broken. How can this mother be a good mother?!" Mo Mingyuan cursed.
"Mother has to raise so many children that she probably has no time to take care of the nest. The rain has been falling for too long and the insects have all gone into hiding," Tian Ying'er explained.
As she spoke, she began to carefully patch up the hole in the bird's nest.
She is so skillful with her hands.
"Ying'er, your name also means bird. Maybe your mother hopes that you will be as beautiful as a bird in the future!"
"Because I was abandoned when I was born and kept crying, my master gave me this name." Tian Ying monologued and gave him a look.
"Uh...I...that..."
"I know, you don't have to say it. After I finish speaking, you won't be able to say this anymore."
Tian Ying'er found a thicker branch to sit on, and Mo Mingyuan sat next to her, and the two of them looked at the cold moon.
"Do you know why I was exiled?"
"Stealing something you shouldn't have."
"Yes, I stole someone's heart."
Mo Mingyuan didn't dare to turn his head to look at her, but his heart was twisted.
"After his father knew I was a mole, he lured me to his house in his name, and then he reported me to the authorities, saying I had stolen something bestowed upon his family by the emperor."
Mo Mingyuan understood that if she stole ordinary things, she would only be beaten, but stealing things given by the emperor would be a capital crime.
"In the end, he threatened to die, giving me this glimmer of hope."
"I'm sorry, I didn't know you had a lover. I won't bother you again."
Mo Mingyuan jumped down the tree without saying a word.
