The important thing is--
Mu Achen has already stated that he will not cause trouble without reason.
But what does "without cause" mean?
With Mu Achen and the Holy Maiden of the Miao Region of Qiandong's wisdom and resourcefulness, even if they deliberately cause trouble, they can find a reason to claim their innocence.
so--
After careful consideration, Yun Kai realized that he needed to learn a deeper lesson from the previous county head's dismissal.
Otherwise, Mu Achen could easily find an excuse to use against him, and he wouldn't be able to handle it at all.
After figuring all this out, Yun Kai looked at Mu Achen's small face and felt a kind of harmless shiver.
So when he saw Shi Xiang and Mu Achen only drinking and not talking about anything else, he suddenly realized what was going on and secretly cursed Shi Xiang for being cunning.
Lei Zhan, on the other hand, after getting a little tipsy, once again became sworn brothers with Mu Achen, deepening their bond. He even said:
"Brother, I know you're not afraid, but you can never be too careful!"
“Your Miao sacred fruit is too enviable! Those criminals are lurking on the border between our Guizhou and Hunan provinces.”
"But don't worry, your brother has been keeping an eye on them for a while now."
Soon, the drinking session ended after Lei Zhan, Shi Xiang, and Yun Kai were all drunk and passed out. They were then helped into their respective cars and left by their respective people.
When Amo returned, Mu Achen was sitting by the charcoal fire in the side room, warming himself by the fire while lost in thought, seemingly preoccupied with something.
She tidied up the house before coming to the side room to turn the fire up a bit.
But who knew--
As soon as she straightened up after setting the charcoal fire, Ah Chen, who was sitting on a low stool, hugged her waist.
Seeing this, Amo was slightly taken aback.
She wanted Ah Chen to let go, since they were on the first floor, and it wouldn't be good if the Miao people came in and saw them.
But Ah Chen hugged her waist and buried his head in her legs, as if he was drunk.
Duoduo, who had just entered the house, was about to call out to her brother, saying that Auntie and Uncle from Quedong Village had arrived, but upon seeing this scene, the girl immediately turned around and ran away with a smile.
As soon as Tang Yue'e and Hua Ting entered the room, they saw this scene by the charcoal fire. The couple looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed.
Just as they were about to avoid them, Amo waved to them instead.
"Holy Maiden, is she... drunk?"
Amo didn't know if Achen was truly drunk or faking it, so she simply said, "I guess he's about drunk enough."
"Then help him to sleep."
"Let him rest here for a while."
Amo asked Tang Yue'e to close the door to prevent the wind from blowing in and making Achen drunk even faster. Then she gestured for Tang Yue'e and Hua Ting to sit down before saying:
"Although everything at school is ready, we still need time to work on the walls, beds, cabinets, and other things in the two buildings where we live."
"In addition, there is still a significant shortage of teachers for each subject."
"So, after discussing it with Ah Chen, we decided that we should finish everything before officially opening Miao Family Middle School!"
"Let's put it in the fall semester next year. That way it will be a full academic year. Whether it's junior high or high school, at least the classes won't be delayed because of being busy with this or that in the middle."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yue'e secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Hua Ting began, "That's what we were thinking before, but we were worried that A-Chen would be in a hurry, so—"
"No matter how urgent it is, we can't just start school without getting everything in order!"
Amo's words gave Miao Family Middle School ample time, which made Tang Yue'e and her husband less anxious.
Hua Ting immediately said that they would proceed step by step.
He will personally give instructions to the 137 Miao students on this side of the mountain.
After they finished talking, Hua Ting went out first.
As Tang Yue'e turned around, she leaned close to Amo and whispered, "Help Achen to bed. If he's cold, you can warm him up."
Forehead--
Ah Chen, who was clinging to Ah Mo's legs, was only pretending, but Aunt Tang's words almost made him burst out laughing.
Even though he didn't say anything, Amo still noticed the slight tremor in Mu Achen's body.
"Ah Chen, it's broad daylight! Please let go of me!" Ah Mo reminded her.
Achen not only didn't loosen his grip, but hugged her even tighter.
"Then—if anyone comes, you continue to pretend to be drunk and don't say a word."
Forehead--
How did Ah Mo know she was faking it? Why didn't she just help her upstairs, and then she could--
Ah Chen stopped pretending.
He raised his still-recovering face and looked at Amo with a frustrated expression.
"Sister Mo, why don't you just help me to bed? Do you know how much I've been holding back these past few days—"
pity--
Before Ah Chen could finish saying those embarrassing words, Ah Mo covered his mouth.
"Don't say it."
Amo's face flushed red, and when she realized that Achen wanted to pull her to sit on his lap, she quickly shook her head.
"No, although you've recovered very well, Amo can't sit."
After that, Amo sat down next to Achen, right next to him.
Ah Chen held Ah Mo in his arms, letting her lean against his lap, gently stroking her hair, and softly humming a tune.
Amo slightly raised her intoxicated almond-shaped face, blinked her tender eyes, and asked, "Is that the song you were humming when you were begging for flowers? It sounds like it!"
Ah Chen nodded and kissed Ah Mo on the forehead.
"Take advantage of her good times!"
Amo smiled, "It's beautiful! This is exactly the tune we sang after successfully obtaining the flower ribbon for our Miao people! But—"
"What's wrong?"
"Ah Chen, what's wrong with you today? I feel like you—"
