Shangguan Yichen's eyes flickered slightly as he stared intently at Mo Qingcheng.
Mo Qingcheng was speechless: "You brat, are you hoping your mother gets hurt?"
"No, Mother, what Big Brother means is that Mother is amazing! You took on so many people by yourself and didn't get hurt?" Mu Wanqing's eyes lit up. "Mother, do you have some kind of secret technique?"
"Sister Mo, have those people been dealt with?" Bai Yueniang asked with concern.
A small hand reached out and helped Mo Qingcheng wipe the water droplets from her hair.
Mo Qingcheng felt a warmth in her heart, "They ran away..."
Mu Wanqing paused, was it true? She knew all too well how potent the medicine powder in her mother's hand was.
Bai Yueniang was confused and thought it was good that she ran away...
A thoughtful look flashed in Shangguan Yichen's eyes: "Mother, next time, should we nip it in the bud?"
"Yes, Mommy, these flies are so annoying..." The little girl curled her lips into a wicked smile: "Let's catch them first..."
Mo Qingcheng shook her head: "If we arrest them, there will be another batch. It's better to keep them hanging for now, and when we have the time and ability, we can take them all down at once..."
Bai Yueniang understood. Yes, the enemy was in the shadows, and could attack without restraint. But they couldn't...
Could it be that they're after me and Brother Bai?
Bai Yueniang's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Sister Mo, I want to learn lightness skill."
"Good, Aunt Yue, you've finally come to your senses..." Mu Wanqing grabbed Bai Yueniang's hand and said with a smile.
Bai Yueniang: "..."
Have I been tricked again?
The carriage moved slowly along the muddy road. Mo Qingcheng closed her eyes to rest, pondering whether she could take out the communication stone.
Farmer rolled his eyes: "Little witch, you've been behaving strangely lately. Be careful someone doesn't notice something amiss. You know the saying 'possessing a treasure invites trouble,' right?"
Alright, Mo Qingcheng gave up on that idea. It was best to keep a low profile until she had sufficient power.
"Little Junjun, those people are in your hands..." A cold glint flashed in Mo Qingcheng's eyes. In her previous life, the Farmer had a specialty...
Farmer looked disgusted: "I'll settle the score with you after I get out of here!"
"..." Mo Qingcheng shuddered. Being targeted by Xiao Junjun was no fun at all.
Meanwhile, Old Man Bai and Liu Cuihua at home were extremely anxious.
"Oh dear, why aren't Mother and my eldest brother back yet?" Bai Zimo asked countless times, and his father mechanically replied, "Soon..."
"Grandpa, shall we go pick up Mom and Aunt Yue?" The little guy tugged at his father's sleeve, acting all cute and affectionate.
Old Man Bai steeled his heart: "Mo Mo, you can't. Grandpa can't afford to offend your mother. It's dark and the roads are slippery. What if something happens on the way? Your mother will go ballistic, and Grandpa will..."
I don't believe you for a second!
The little guy pouted; Grandpa was lying to a child…
Old Man Bai: "..."
Being a grandfather is hard, being a good grandfather is even harder...
Shangguan Yunxi and Bai Yunfei helped with the cooking, while Mu Yunchuan tinkered with a bunch of wooden parts.
Liu Cuihua sighed softly, "Third Grandmother, I'm inexplicably panicked. Did I say anything about the Mo family girls being safe?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Madam Mo is beautiful and kind-hearted, she won't get into trouble. Let's do our work well so that Madam Mo and the others can have a hot meal when they get home." Third Grandma instructed Liu Cuihua to be careful in her work.
No matter how good your relationship is with Lady Mo, when it comes to crucial moments, you must do your job well and not overstep your bounds.
Liu Cuihua nodded: "Third Grandma, I understand. We'll wait at the door after we finish cooking."
"Okay!" Grandma San finally felt relieved.
Is anyone there?
