Mo Qingcheng unfolded the letter, her face turning cold and stern: "Don't be afraid, leave it to me to handle."
Lin Feifei and Bei Gonglan exchanged a glance, their hearts finally settling down. It was best that Sister Mo had stepped in…
Mo Qingcheng gave a few brief instructions, and the three of them arrived at the small flower hall. The two men, one tall and one short, immediately looked up at them.
"Mother, Aunt Feifei, Aunt Lan..." Shangguan Yichen called out to each of them with a somber expression.
Bai Yi, completely oblivious to her surroundings, glanced at Bei Gonglan and Lin Feifei, then fixed her mournful gaze on Mo Qingcheng.
Mo Qingcheng's eyelids twitched. She would spoil the guards she had left behind, even if they had to kneel down...
An hour later, the three men and two horses hurriedly left Yutang Town, turned a corner, and headed straight for the county government office...
By the time she got home, the moon was high in the sky. Mo Qingcheng paused, "Brother Bai?"
Bai Yifan nodded: "Sister Mo, I need to talk to you about something..."
"Alright! Brother Bai, please wait a moment. Let Yue'er keep you company first..." Mo Qingcheng gave Bai Yueniang a meaningful look before drifting away.
Bai Yueniang stomped her foot, "Sister Mo is bullying people."
Shangguan Yichen and Bai Yi greeted Bai Yifan one by one before going to wash up.
Bai Yueniang's face flushed red: "Brother Bai, I'm going to rest now..."
Before she could finish speaking, Bai Yueniang's hand was grabbed.
"Brother Bai..." Bai Yueniang blushed and whispered, but before she could finish, a rustling sound came from behind her.
Bai Yueniang's back stiffened, and she looked in the direction of the sound. Her foot slipped, and she almost fell.
A few little girls huddled together to one side, covering their mouths with their hands, trying not to laugh.
Bai Yueniang opened her mouth, then left angrily...
The children burst into laughter.
Bai Yueniang stumbled and almost bumped into Old Man Bai.
"Moon, what's wrong?"
"Oh dear, Father, look for yourself!" Bai Yueniang stamped her foot.
Old Man Bai laughed heartily: "My Yue'er has learned to be shy..."
"Pfft!" Bai Yueniang spat out a mouthful of blood, nearly dying at the young age of sixteen...
Mo Qingcheng chuckled: "Yue'er, Brother Bai has finally come back, don't be temperamental."
"Sister Mo, you...you guys are so mean!" Bai Yueniang glanced at Bai Yifan shyly, thinking, "It's all your fault."
Bai Yifan: "..."
It's all my fault.
The two exchanged glances, and Old Man Bai and Mo Qingcheng looked at each other, a hint of joy flashing in their eyes.
Bai Yueniang took a few steps, getting angrier the more she thought about it, and walked towards the girls. "Hmph, ruining my good time, we'll all go together."
Shangguan Yunxi and the others followed silently behind. Was this the legendary case of lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot?
Bai Yifan, Mo Qingcheng, and Old Man Bai went to the study and talked for more than an hour.
Bai Yifan walked out expressionlessly, a stack of silver notes tucked into his pocket. Old Man Bai patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "Why don't you go see Yue'er?"
"Okay, Dad!" Bai Yifan nodded and headed straight for Bai Yueniang's room...
Mo Qingcheng thought for a moment, then called Shangguan Yichen over, her face serious: "Eldest brother, Mother wants to talk to you about something."
"Mother, just tell me what you want to say. Whatever decision you make, I will agree." The young boy's eyes were firm, and he clenched his fists.
Mo Qingcheng chuckled: "Boss, which version of you is this 'ready to die' look?"
Shangguan Yichen looked up, his face full of confusion: "Mother?"
"Take a look at this first..." Mo Qingcheng handed a piece of paper to Shangguan Yichen.
Shangguan Yichen took it, glanced down at it, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief: "Mother, I promise to complete the mission!"
"Boss is awesome!"
Shangguan Yichen: "..."
