"puff!"
"Cough cough!"
When Mo Qingcheng heard the news, she was discussing new dishes with Ninth Elder Mo Chuyue.
"Little Qingqing, why do you seem a little gloating?" Mo Chuyue raised an eyebrow, her peach blossom eyes full of inquiry. "You're not the head of the family's little darling either, are you?"
Mo Qingcheng's lips curled into a meaningful smile: "Elder Beauty, you're clever!"
Mo Chuyue: "..."
Really? Did I guess right?
"Little Qingqing, is your father infertile?" Mo Chuyue raised her hand, pinched Mo Qingcheng's chin, and a smile flashed in her eyes.
Mo Qingcheng slapped Mo Chuyue's hand away, "Elder Beauty, you're overthinking it. Of course I'm my father's little darling, but... this father is not that father..."
Is this father not the same as that father?
Mo Chuyue clicked her tongue, "So that's how it is. I knew the current head of the Mo family was a bit strange..."
Mo Qingcheng blinked, her dark eyes gleaming. "Elder Beauty, about this matter..."
"Don't worry, men are all easygoing..." Mo Chuyue pouted, "Can we start roasting the duck now?"
Mo Qingcheng: "..."
Verification complete: Elder Beauty is a true foodie.
Mo Qingcheng hadn't had much rest before the Ninth Elder took her away, ostensibly to spar with her poison skills, much to the chagrin of the other elders.
Who knows if it's a friendly competition of poison techniques or a secret indulgence in delicious food? Don't think a bunch of men don't understand women's little secrets.
snort!
"Cough cough... Everyone, please calm down. I'll go take a look. If Qingqing is too young and can't withstand the Ninth Elder's poison, then we'll be in trouble..." Third Elder Mo Chuan slowly stood up. His old bones were almost falling apart, and he was in great discomfort.
Fifth Elder Mo Hanshan nodded in agreement: "Yes, I'm a little worried about Third Brother going alone. What if Ninth Brother poisons him? He won't be able to escape quickly. It's better if I go with him, so I can look after him..."
Hmm, anyway, this elder knows how to tame beasts, which gives me an extra means of survival in crucial moments...
The other elders watched helplessly as the Third Elder and Fifth Elder colluded, and what else could they not understand? They were teaming up to steal food.
snort!
Go ahead and go, who's afraid of who?
The First Elder, Mo Yujiang, waved his hand calmly: "Third brother, fifth brother, be careful, don't get hurt..."
Mo Chuan and Mo Hanshan exchanged a glance. Why was the Grand Elder being so agreeable today? Could there be a trap?
Never mind, food is the most important thing in the world. The Third Elder and Fifth Elder have already run away. If you want to eat delicious food, just find two witches, that's the right thing to do.
"Qingqing, this old man has come to test the poison..." The Third Elder's voice preceded his arrival.
Mo Qingcheng's lips twitched: "Third Elder, you'd better be careful. What if you really get poisoned? What if Elder Beauty doesn't provide the antidote?"
Third Elder: "..."
Can't we just have a pleasant chat anymore? No, wait, can't we just enjoy a delicious meal together?
This elder is not leaving; why would I be kicked out?
The Third Elder was determined to stay with the Ninth Elder. The Fifth Elder chuckled and said, "If you don't leave, I won't leave either. We're evenly matched."
Ninth Elder Mo Chuyue had a headache. She thought to herself, "The other old guys must have caught a whiff of this and are coming after me..."
As expected, the time was almost up, and the First Elder sighed softly: "Everyone, why do I feel so uneasy? Could it be that the Third and Fifth Brothers have fallen for it?"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately perked up, stood up, and rushed out the door, heading straight for Mo Chuyue's residence.
"Get out! All of you, get out of here!"
