Mo Qingcheng blushed and slapped Mu Wanqing's little hand, her eyes flashing slightly: "Isn't it because you're tired?"
"Oh..." Mu Wanqing said with some doubt, "Mother, Xuanyuan Ying has been acting suspiciously these past two days, and her behavior this morning was particularly suspicious..."
The little girl chattered on and on, telling Mo Qingcheng everything she had discovered during this period, down to the smallest detail.
Mo Qingcheng's eye twitched violently: "Alright, tell me your purpose."
Doesn't she know what kind of person this girl is? Her house is in constant chaos; she's the type who won't do anything without a reason.
Nobody would believe that I would come all this way just to say a few words.
Mu Wanqing chuckled: "Mother, can you leave this to Qing'er? I won't alert the enemy."
Mo Qingcheng slowly stood up, and the little girl quickly brought over the shoes: "Mommy, you've worked so hard!"
A string of compliments poured out like they were free, and Mo Qingcheng snapped out of her daze, subconsciously nodding in agreement.
Mu Wanqing blinked, left a sentence, and disappeared like a gust of wind.
Mo Qingcheng was both amused and exasperated. What a brat… she hoped she was just overthinking things…
After getting up to wash up, Mo Qingcheng noticed that a slender white figure was missing from the dining table. She was slightly stunned, wondering if Yue'er had arrived safely.
Old Man Bai didn't say it aloud, but his dark circles betrayed his worry.
"Dad, don't worry, Hei Yi and the others are very capable!" Mo Qingcheng changed the subject, afraid that her father might be upset: "Dad, is the school in our town almost finished?"
"It will be completed the day after tomorrow..." Old Man Bai took a sip of lean pork and preserved egg porridge, his heart filled with longing for his own big cotton-padded coat.
Mo Qingcheng slowly said, "Father, the academy will be in your hands from now on. You will be the dean of Ruyi Academy."
"Absolutely not!" Old Man Bai waved his hands repeatedly to refuse. He couldn't do anything right, he only knew a few characters, and he couldn't even write a proper article. How could he be the dean?
Mo Qingcheng didn't take it seriously and said firmly, "Dad, this is our family business. How can you bear to hand it over to someone else?"
What if there are people with ulterior motives? Wouldn't we not even have a chance to cry then?
Old Man Bai's lips moved, but he couldn't utter a single word of rebuttal. The interruption eased the pressure considerably. Old Man Bai secretly resolved that once a suitable successor was found, he would step down...
While eating, Mo Qingcheng asked if she had encountered anything suspicious recently.
The little ones thought hard, then shook their heads in unison; no.
However, a huge black hand has already reached Ruyi Town, intending to deal with Mo Qingcheng at any time.
A young widow, raising a bunch of kids, with a little money in her hands, was targeted by someone. When she resisted, she was killed by a knife. Isn't that a coincidence?
Old Man Bai rarely goes out, and when asked this question, he was speechless and lowered his head to stuff his food into his mouth.
Mo Qingcheng was exasperated. It seemed she wouldn't get anything out of him. Oh well, she'd just have to be careful. Didn't the Farmer have so many treasures?
Upon hearing Mo Qingcheng's thoughts, Farm King instantly bristled: "Little witch, I'm warning you, don't even try!"
Mo Qingcheng awkwardly touched her nose: "Little Junjun, don't be so stingy, okay?"
"..." I don't believe you for a second!
Farmer rolled his eyes at Mo Qingcheng, angrily severing the mental connection. He lay on a boulder by the lake in the interstellar farm, munching on crunchy snacks, pondering how to control this silly little witch...
After the meal, Mo Qingcheng went straight to the rice paddies. If all went well, the rice would be harvested in three days. But they were short-handed. Should they hire people from the village or from other towns?
This is a problem...
Mo Qingcheng was lost in thought when she heard anxious calls from behind her, which startled her.
"Lady Mo, something has happened to Li Changgeng..."
