Chapter 45 Specialty
Fifteen minutes later, Mo Qingcheng hurriedly returned, holding a handful of herbs. She walked to Old Huang's side, squatted down, and carefully applied the medicine and bandaged it.
"Hmph! Big brother's bad!"
"Big brother is so mean!"
"I'm ignoring my older brother!"
"Big brother definitely did it on purpose..."
Bai Ziming, Bai Yunfei, Mu Wanqing, and Shangguan Yunxi walked past Shangguan Yichen, their eyes filled with resentment.
Mu Yunchuan raised his eyes and slowly said, "Big brother... you did it on purpose... didn't you?"
I don't believe you!
My older brother must have done it on purpose, trying to drive our mother away.
Seeing his siblings almost turn against his eldest brother, the cunning Mu Yunchuan's lips curled into a small smile.
Shangguan Yichen almost vomited blood. A bunch of little traitors.
Mo Qingcheng treated the old ox's wounds while chatting with it.
"Old Huang, thank you for your hard work. I'm so sorry, it was all my fault last night. Get well soon, sweetie, I'll make you something delicious when I have time..."
Shangguan Yichen: "..."
Is the stepmother stupid?
Although Lao Huang is sensible, it's impossible for him to understand human speech.
The next second, he was slapped in the face. The old ox nudged Mo Qingcheng's hand with its head and mooed twice.
Shangguan Yichen's face darkened, and the laughter of several little traitors came from beside him...
An hour later, the long procession set off again. Xuan Yuan Wuchi and his family stared intently at the second oxcart ahead, their eyes filled with venom.
Last night, their oxcart and grain were all stolen by bandits. Liu Jinhua was pushed and fell to the ground, almost breaking her tail. She is limping and it's really going to be the death of her.
If it weren't for Liu Jinhua's robust health and fierce protection of Xuan Yuanfang, his precious daughter might have suffered.
The whole family, apart from the little bit of silver they kept on their person, had nothing to eat. The pot was broken, the bowl was shattered, and they were in dire straits.
But all of this was done by that heartless little bitch...
Widow Li and Liu Jinhua walked among the crowd, whispering amongst themselves.
"Sister-in-law, something strange happened last night. Do you think it might be related to your eldest daughter-in-law?"
Widow Li deliberately steered the conversation in that direction, her jealousy and envy fueling her anger as she watched Mo Qingcheng protecting the children and Yun Lei following beside the oxcart.
Liu Jinhua gave an awkward smile: "Auntie, don't joke around. That little bitch has long severed ties with our family, you know that, right? What if..." If anything happens to that little bitch in the future, please don't try to pin it on our family.
Widow Li didn't care and continued to incite: "Sister-in-law, isn't it strange? How did that little bitch Mo know there was something wrong with the river? We all live in the same village, we see each other all the time, how could she be so heartless?"
Liu Jinhua's eyes darted around: "Auntie, there's no evidence for this, don't talk nonsense, or the village chiefs will come after you..."
"..." Widow Li sneered inwardly. What kind of person was Liu Jinhua? Did she not know?
However, in order to achieve her goal, Widow Li temporarily humbled herself and spread rumors, which was Liu Jinhua's specialty.
As expected, by evening, when they arrived at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain, word had already spread among the group that Mo Niangzi was colluding with the bandits of Qingfeng Mountain, and everyone should be careful not to be fooled.
Mo Qingcheng glared with her beautiful eyes. "You damned bastard! How dare you smear this instructor? Heh... It's the real principle to just stand by and watch someone die."
I'm not Mary, I wouldn't do anything to cause trouble.
Li Changgeng and his two companions naturally overheard these rumors, and they all knew exactly what was going on. For safety's sake, Mo Niangzi had never left their sight; how could she possibly be colluding with the bandits?
After walking and stopping frequently, we finally arrived at the foot of Qingfeng Mountain.
Wow!
A pile of boulders blocked the only path up the mountain. The largest one weighed over 100 kilograms and the smallest five or six kilograms. They were more than the height of a house. I wonder who was so bored.
Everyone's hearts sank.
"Village chief, should we fly over there?"
