Chapter 138 Calm Down



Grandma Mo glanced at Mo Yunmei indifferently. Who else could it be? Your father and older brother!

But she didn't say it aloud because it wasn't the right time yet; saying too much would only cause trouble and could easily lead to unforeseen circumstances.

Mo Yunmei didn't press the matter further. She was just asking out of pure curiosity. Who it was didn't matter to her, since she didn't know them anyway.

The Qin and Zhao families had many questions swirling in their minds, because they had also overheard the conversation but didn't know the truth of the matter, leaving them puzzled and confused.

However, Grandma Mo didn't tell them, which means that it's not something they can know yet, or at least it's not the right time for them to know.

Both of them knew the truth and wisely chose to keep quiet and not ask.

But Su Nanxi didn't care anymore. She felt she couldn't hold it in any longer and just wanted to know. Anyway, she didn't have to worry about her telling anyone, so she asked Mo Qinghe.

Mo Qinghe paused for a moment before slowly saying, "My wife is so smart, she should have guessed it by now. Mo Yunmei isn't actually from the Mo family; she's just being raised in our family. As for why, that's a long story, it's from the previous generation, you'll find out then, I don't know much about it myself. In short, it's because my parents were too kind, and those people were too cunning. They forced my parents to raise Mo Yunmei, and to prevent us from treating her badly, they even threatened to kill themselves, forcing my parents to sign a document and swear an oath."

Upon hearing this, Su Nanxi felt as if her worldview was about to be shattered. What kind of people are these?

They wouldn't even raise their own daughter, and now they're hypocritically saying they want to take her back? Their face is bigger than a washbasin!

Mo Qinghe's face also turned cold. "How could you do something like this if you don't have thick skin? The agreed date is probably approaching, so you've come running here like a madman. Coming early can't be a good thing. You probably have some scheme in mind!"

Su Nanxi grasped his hand and said, "Don't be angry. What goes around comes around. We'll settle the score later. That will make you feel much better."

Mo Qinghe finally smiled. His wife wasn't one to suffer a loss, but he liked her!

"Fine! They want us to raise them for nothing for over a decade, and they're trying to scheme against us for other things too. We're not pushovers either. We can't touch Mo Yunmei, but it's not like we can't touch her father!"

Su Nanxi laughed too. Mo Qinghe is quite cunning!

That's how it is; the Mo family needs to calm down!

Su Nanxi understood as well. She guessed that Li Haisheng had heard about the Mo family's breakfast business and was now thinking something.

Tsk! I really have no idea what this thing is!

She's not pretty, but she has pretty dreams!

They scheme against others in every possible way, treating everyone else like fools.

When faced with such a situation, Su Nanxi is happy to help educate the person involved.

What does it mean when you suddenly feel like you have a toy in your heart?

Mo Qinghe also saw the sudden glint in Su Nanxi's eyes. He touched her cheek, his eyes full of doting, "Wife, take it easy, don't use too much force, be careful not to hurt your hands and feet, okay? Be careful not to expose yourself, otherwise it won't be fun!"

Su Nanxi nodded. She knew this. She would definitely keep it a secret. It's a cat-and-mouse game, and it's more fun if you take it easy!

Mo Qinghe discovered that his wife was a little mischievous, which was absolutely adorable.

In the afternoon, Mo Qinghe stayed home as usual to read and practice calligraphy, and also practice walking. Su Nanxi took a string of dolls out.

Mo Jiarong asked, "Third Aunt, are these potato vines for Cao Erdan?"

Su Nanxi nodded. Since she didn't see Cao Erdan come to get it, she simply took it out and asked Mo Dongcheng to call Cao Erdan to come and take it. She considered that she had accomplished something.

I always feel uncomfortable if I make a promise to someone and then don't keep it!

Upon hearing that there were sweet potato vines, Cao Erdan immediately ran over, not even bothering with Mo Dongcheng.

Su Nanxi waited at the intersection, and soon saw a figure fly over.

Wow! There must be food inside, that's why you ran so fast!

Cao Erdan grinned broadly, still catching his breath, and said, "Really, there are, there are sweet potato vines!"

Su Nanxi nodded, pointed to the sweet potato vines on the ground, and then to the path behind Cao Erdan.

Cao Erdan blinked and asked uncertainly, "You mean I should take everything on the ground back with me?"

Su Nanxi nodded. If she wasn't going to let him take it back, did she expect to take it back herself?

Cao Erdan happily said "thank you," and then quickly picked up the sweet potato vines from the ground. There weren't many vines, but Cao Erdan was still a child, and his arms were short, so it was a bit difficult for him to carry them.

But he still smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'll gather them up, I can hug them, they're not very heavy!"

Su Nanxi didn't offer any help; as long as they could carry it away, that was enough. That was all she could do.

Watching Cao Erdan stagger back, Su Nanxi suddenly felt like laughing. Hehe, it was a bit mean of her, but it was really quite funny!

Cao Erdan was barefoot, and his pants were clearly from two years ago—a bit too short for cropped pants, and a bit too long for capri pants! His clothes were also obviously ill-fitting. Overall, it looked like Cao Erdan had suddenly grown up.

Now that he's carrying a sweet potato vine that's blocking his view, he can only look left and right as he walks. If that doesn't work, he might as well walk sideways!

It's pretty funny!

Cao Erdan had no idea that his appearance had amused others. He was only thinking about running back quickly to give the sweet potato vines to his mother so that she could plant them in the ground before the sun got too strong.

Su Nanxi and the others hadn't been soaked in water for long when Cao Sanniang brought Cao Erdan to the field.

No need to look, they've definitely dug holes to plant sweet potato vines.

I don't know how the word spread in the village, but everyone said that these sweet potato vines are a good thing. Anyone who doesn't plant them will definitely regret it later. Everyone has good things to eat, and if you don't plant them, you'll just be watching others eat them!

You might not hear this once, but there's not much entertainment in the village, and everyone has a gossipy streak. If you tell someone once, they'll eventually listen, and the spineless ones will start to panic.

That's human psychology. When you see everyone else has it and you don't, you feel like something's wrong, like you're going to become an oddball and be looked down upon. So, you secretly follow the crowd and plant it, and then you feel at ease.

Most of the villagers planted sweet potato vines, and some also planted corn seedlings. They trusted the Mo family and the village chief, and they figured it couldn't be wrong to plant some!

Since we're not planting many, we won't lose money.

The village chief said that the corn is delicious, fragrant and sweet, and it's filling. You won't lose money if you plant it!

At some point, a wave of planting swept through the village, with people planting everything they could in the fields and on the hillsides.

This phenomenon in Changna Village puzzled people from neighboring villages. What was going on? Planting everywhere, all green and lush!

Although Mo Yunmei was preparing to leave the Mo family, as long as she was in the Mo family, she was still forced to work every day and could not go anywhere at will.

Grandma Mo kept a closer eye on her, fearing that something might go wrong at the last minute.

"Mom! Why are you so strict with me? I'm not slacking off, but I need to rest too!"
