Mo Yunmei looked incredulous. Her older brother, who used to dote on her, would hit her!
Half of her face was numb, which shows how much force her older brother used. Was this really her older brother?
Her older brother has always protected and indulged her since she was a child. Even after they got married, he was still very good to her. Why did things suddenly change like this?
The moment Mo Laoda uttered those words, they turned to ice: "That's exactly what I'm talking about! We've all been wrong all these years, spoiling you into a spoiled, willful, heartless, and unfilial person! Go back to where you learned all these things, and don't come back!"
What!
Mo Yunmei was dumbfounded. Her eldest brother wanted to kick her out? Where could she go? How could she survive without the Mo family?
Ignoring the pain in her face, she hugged Boss Mo's leg, crying and shouting, "Don't send me away! I was wrong, I was wrong! I'll change, I'll change! I won't talk nonsense anymore, I'll never talk nonsense again!"
Mo Laoda lifted his leg to leave, but Mo Yunmei clung to him tightly, refusing to let him go. If her elder brother didn't give the order, she would be kicked out, and she didn't want that!
Su Nanxi listened quietly to the noise outside, without reacting.
Mo Qinghe took her hand and placed it in his own, gently asking, "Mute Mother, are you hungry? Your sister-in-law is cooking. Wait a little longer and rest for a while."
Su Nanxi looked at Mo Qinghe. Why had this young man become so cautious? There was worry in his eyes. Was he worried about her?
She nodded, closed her eyes, and let him hold her hand.
Mo Qinghe held Su Nanxi's hand tightly, unwilling to let go, afraid that if he let go, he might not be able to hold her hand again.
Su Nanxi wasn't asleep. She could sense Mo Qinghe's tension and fear because his hands were trembling slightly as he tried to hold hers tightly.
They held hands tightly and didn't let go for a long time.
Mo Qinghe only reluctantly let go of Qin's hand when she came over to say it was time to eat and brought the food.
The Mo family went to dig for wild vegetables and pick mushrooms this afternoon, planning to make steamed buns tomorrow to give to the villagers who helped search for the missing person, as a token of their gratitude.
Su Nanxi didn't boil any eggs that evening. She had to make a show of it and couldn't recover so quickly, so she couldn't get up and walk around for the time being.
Mo Qinghe, who was usually aloof and quiet, seemed to have become a different person, speaking softly and becoming much more talkative.
"Mute girl, are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"
"Mute girl, are you thirsty? Would you like some water?"
"Mute girl, does your wound hurt?"
Hey! She's not disabled, she's perfectly fine!
It's quite interesting and cute to see this aloof and handsome young man suddenly turn into this!
Enjoy this moment while you can, because you might not have the chance to see him like this again.
The two communicated through their hands, perhaps out of habit. They would occasionally hold each other's hands, kneading and gently stroking them, their affection undisguised, though neither of them was aware of it.
As their hands touched more, the distance between them shortened, and they unknowingly leaned against each other while sleeping.
Mo Qinghe looked down at Su Nanxi, who was leaning against his arm, his eyes filled with affection. He couldn't help but reach out and gently touch her hair.
He only felt at ease when she was by his side.
The Mo family got up early in the morning to get busy.
Su Nanxi knew they wanted to make steamed buns as gifts, so she got up and prepared the necessary ingredients. Before she could even stir or knead them, Old Lady Mo sent her back to sleep.
Su Nanxi had no choice but to climb back up, but she couldn't fall asleep. Seeing that Mo Qinghe beside her was still asleep, she didn't dare to move around. But she was bored lying there, so she habitually reached out and touched Mo Qinghe's hand. Afraid of waking him up, she only dared to gently stroke it.
Mo Qinghe was actually awake, but he didn't open his eyes. When he saw Su Nanxi touching and playing with his hand, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
As a result, the two of them fell asleep again.
At daybreak, the four went to sell steamed buns. Old Mo and his wife carried baskets and delivered buns to each household to thank them for helping to find the mute woman.
Of course, it's only for families who are helping to find someone.
When they arrived at Village Chief Liu's house, Village Chief Liu waved his hand, saying, "No need to thank me, it's what they should do. We're neighbors, everyone has their difficult times! If I were able to walk, I should have gone too! Don't thank me!"
Not long ago, Village Chief Liu fell and broke his leg, making it difficult for him to walk. Instead of searching for the missing person, he sent his son and daughter-in-law.
Grandma Mo thanked her anyway and kept the steamed buns, saying, "You're welcome! Please keep these steamed buns and try them. They're not anything fancy, but we made them with our hearts, so please don't mind them!"
The village chief's grandchildren stared wide-eyed at the steamed buns, their mouths practically watering, so Village Chief Liu accepted them without hesitation.
When the deliverymen were almost at Chen Qiuxia's house, Chen Qiuxia happily ran out, followed by her younger brother Chen Jinhe.
"Sis, tell them to give us a few more steamed buns later! I want two!"
Chen Qiuxia flicked a strand of hair, smiled, and said, "Alright! Considering my relationship with Yunmei, I should be able to take a few more."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jinhe jumped up happily, as if he could eat steamed buns right away.
However, Mr. and Mrs. Mo turned a corner in front of their house and went to another house.
Chen Jinhe asked, "Didn't you see us?"
Chen Qiuxia didn't know either, "Let's wait a bit longer, it should be our turn soon."
Chen Jinhe agreed and decided to continue waiting.
As a result, after Mr. and Mrs. Mo came out of that house, they left directly.
"What, what's going on? We haven't received any steamed buns yet!"
Chen Jinhe shouted and ran over, stopping the Mo couple.
The Mo couple were dumbfounded. "Jinhe, why are you running so fast?"
Chen Jinhe pointed to the basket and said, "You haven't given us any steamed buns yet!"
The Mo couple exchanged a glance, and finally, Mrs. Mo asked, "Does anyone in your family go to help us look for them?"
Chen Jinhe immediately replied, "No!"
Why would he bother helping to find people? Isn't it tiring? My sister said they can just watch and don't need to get involved, and he couldn't care less!
Because of Mo Yunmei's situation, Old Man Mo had lost all goodwill towards Chen Qiuxia's family, but not wanting to make things difficult for a child, he simply asked, "Do you know why we give out steamed buns?"
Chen Jinhe shook his head, "I don't know!"
Grandma Mo scoffed inwardly, "They really are all from the same nest!"
“These buns are to thank the people who came up the mountain to help find people. We calculated how many people there were and made just that many. There are no extras. Since your family didn’t help, you don’t get any buns.”
"What?!" Chen Jinhe protested. "Why didn't you save some for our family? We want some too! No way, you have to send us some today as well, there are still so many buns left!"
He was about to rush forward and grab the steamed buns when he said that.
Chen Qiuxia arrived, grabbed Chen Jinhe, pulled him behind her, and kept apologizing.
Chen Jinhe wanted to step forward, but Chen Qiuxia held him back tightly, so he had to give up.
"Uncle Mo and Aunt Mo, look, Jinhe is just a child, and he gets greedy when he sees food. You still have so many steamed buns, why don't you give him a few to satisfy his craving!"
Old Mo said calmly, "If you eat it, others won't have any left."
"They're going to eat our steamed buns!"
