Chapter 38 The sun is high in the sky.
Ningbao originally wanted to say goodbye and give her a few words of advice, but it's fine this way anyway, she's in a hurry to go back to sleep and grow taller.
Before closing the animal passage, Ning Bao shouted inside.
"She still has unfinished business and is waiting for me to burn paper money for her. I'll try to arrange for her to be a long-lived animal, not a chicken or duck that will be eaten after a few months. Otherwise, she won't have anyone to send a message to."
After dealing with the hanged ghost, Ningbao yawned as she returned to her body, and her previously quiet little body instantly began to snore.
As dawn broke, Shen Yuzhen, who was about to get up, looked at her little daughter beside her and said to Mu Chunping, who was getting dressed.
"I feel like Ningbao didn't sleep before, it's like she just fell asleep."
Mu Chunping gave Ning Bao a gentle look.
"No, she was asleep when I brought her home last night. She didn't wake up or get up at all during the night."
Shen Yuzhen shook her head and gave her husband a disdainful look.
"You don't understand. I'm talking about a feeling. My daughter looks like she's asleep, but she probably isn't actually asleep."
"Husband, you say our daughter is only three years old and already so amazing? Could it be that she's receiving guidance from a master in her dreams?"
Mu Chunping paused for a moment,
"That's actually quite possible."
Here's what we'll do, honey. Ningbao is still young and needs plenty of sleep. Can you help Ningbao get ready, and I'll carry her directly to the cart later?
I'll go check if Mom and Dad are done packing.
The people of Shanglin Village continued their journey just as dawn was breaking, while Ningbao was still asleep.
Zhao Juhua kept cursing and swearing early in the morning. Mu Chunping, afraid of waking her youngest daughter, pushed the cart to keep as far away from them as possible.
As soon as it was light, the news that hadn't had a chance to spread last night finally spread: the Mu family had split up.
Everyone was very surprised that Mu Youcai was able to divide the family property. Since the family property was divided, the belongings should also be divided.
Zhao Juhua hoarded all the food and household items in the house, piling them to the brim on Mu Dachang's cart.
Originally, this cart was pushed by Mu Youcai, but now that the family has separated, Zhao Juhua is afraid that Mu Youcai will take her things, so she directly prevents Mu Youcai from getting close.
Mu Dachang frowned as he looked at the fully loaded cart.
“Old woman, there are so many things here that we don’t need at all. If you give some to Youcai, it will make things easier for us. The five of them only have a few chipped bowls, and they can’t even boil water for a drink of hot water…”
"Stop babbling, you old codger!" Zhao Juhua interrupted Mu Dachang before he could finish speaking.
"He's the one who insisted on separating the family property. From now on, we'll be two separate families. I won't give him my things, even if I have to throw them away."
I'm telling you, Mu Dachang, from now on we'll just raise our grandson well and wait to enjoy his blessings. It doesn't matter to us if the others starve to death.
I now regret not dealing with those brats sooner. I heard that one of those girls could be exchanged for half a sack of grain. Sigh! What a pity…”
Mu Dachang glanced at his stubborn wife and sighed. He always felt that she would regret it one day.
Upon hearing that Mu Youcai had divided the family property, Li Guizhi secretly rummaged through her belongings and pulled out an earthenware pot and a small, worn-out iron pot, then gathered some oil and salt.
"Chunping, take these things to Youcai. Zhaodi hasn't woken up yet, and the children need some hot water. These things are still usable."
Mu Chunping agreed and took the things to find Mu Youcai.
...
"Achoo!" Ning Bao, who was fast asleep, suddenly felt an itch on her nose and sneezed loudly.
She opened her sleepy little eyes and saw her fourth brother, Mu Chengye, waving a foxtail grass in front of her nose.
It seems the culprit that made her sneeze was that foxtail grass.
"Fourth Brother..."
Hearing Ning Bao's shout, Mu Chengye guiltily tucked the foxtail grass behind his back.
"Hehe, Ningbao, you're finally awake! The sun's already high in the sky..."
