Qin Baiyi was a little annoyed. Mo Qianshang had spoken to so many people, so why didn't she say a word to him?
But he forgot that in this era, men and women need to avoid suspicion between each other, not to mention that in the eyes of outsiders, Mo Qianshang is the stepmother of four children, and she should set an example, otherwise no one will be willing to marry into the family in the future, and it will be difficult for Qin Yuya to get married.
Reputation is more important than anything else.
"Do you... have anything important to do today?"
Qin Baiyi couldn't help but speak up. Actually, there wasn't much to ask; he just wanted to find a topic to talk about.
Compared to his coldness when they first met, Mo Qianshang clearly understood the change in Qin Baiyi's attitude. After going through all this together, it was normal for him to change.
Mo Qianshang, you have four children to raise, so don't think about things you shouldn't be thinking about for now.
"What's wrong? If you have something to do, you can go ahead and do it. I'll be fine on my own."
Mo Qianshang's words easily defeated Qin Baiyi. Did this woman really not realize that he just wanted to find a topic to talk about?
Qin Baiyi nodded and flew away in another direction.
Mo Qianshang watched Qin Baiyi demonstrate his lightness skill and stroked her chin with interest. If she had the chance, she would like to learn it too.
Mo Qianshang found Uncle Niu and asked him to take her up the mountain. She hadn't been there for a while and wanted to check on things.
The people from Fushou Village certainly won't give up easily. With such a mine, they could become rich if they found even a single useful rough stone.
They won't let this opportunity slip by.
Sure enough, as we approached the foot of the mountain, we heard a constant commotion from above.
Ever since the people from Fushou Village sneaked in under the cover of darkness and were beaten up, they've been getting angrier and angrier. Now that the opportunity is here, even a small piece of it would bring them immense wealth, so who would be willing to give it up?
And here they are again, bringing people to cause trouble.
Mo Qianshang clearly heard Liu Xiaolan's shrill voice: "Why are you stopping us? This hill belongs to our village. We can come up here whenever we want. Mind your own business, you bastard!"
This was the first time that Uncle Wen had encountered such shameless villagers, especially this woman. Whenever the man tried to pull her away, she would scream desperately, making everyone afraid to touch her. There was really no point in talking to this kind of person.
"I'm telling you again, all the hills around here have been bought up by Madam Mo. Get out of here now, or we'll report you to the authorities."
Upon hearing that the matter would be reported to the authorities, the men visibly backed down. They exchanged glances, realizing that if it were true, things wouldn't be so easy to resolve once it reached the government.
Seeing the group of men back down, Liu Xiaolan almost gritted her teeth. These weak and incompetent fools were scared like this just because they were asked to report to the authorities. Useless.
She would absolutely not let that bitch Mo Qianshang get away with it!
If it weren't for Mo Qianshang, her innocence wouldn't have been lost. Liu Xiaolan was so angry that she wanted to tear Mo Qianshang to pieces, but even that wouldn't be enough to quell her hatred!
"Don't listen to his nonsense, everyone. Where did Mo Qianshang get so much money? She must have done something shady!"
Liu Xiaolan noticed that the clothes worn by Third Master Wen were made of fine material, and the jade pendant on his belt looked quite valuable. His face was also very handsome, much better than that white-clad man wearing a mask whose appearance was unknown. She immediately had a thought.
The thought of the ungrateful man in white made Liu Xiaolan's face contort with rage. She was the village beauty, and he was an ungrateful wretch. Humph.
But that's fine too, since she's going to marry someone and become a noblewoman!
"You wouldn't happen to be her lover, would you? Let me tell you, Mo Qianshang is no good. That woman is incredibly fierce. Young master, you haven't been deceived by her."
As Liu Xiaolan spoke, she flirted with Master Wen, moving closer to him, but he immediately backed away.
Master Wen laughed in anger. He had seen many women, and someone with this kind of looks was at most ordinary. Where did she get the confidence that he would be interested in someone like her?
Is he blind? Or does she think all men fall for her charms and will take the bait with just a flick of her wrist?
There's a river nearby, or at the very least, there's a place to pee. Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? What a jerk you are!
What bad luck! Master Wen felt nauseous.
He'd seen plenty of these idiots who flirted with men in broad daylight and struck seductive poses.
When Liu Xiaolan saw that Master Wen was looking at her with disgust, she immediately exploded. Was she really not as good as that bitch Mo Qianshang?
"You two really are a scoundrel, eagerly becoming someone's stepfather, how shameless!"
Why are all the men's eyes on Mo Qianshang? Why? In what way is she inferior to her?
Mo Qianshang was watching with great interest from nearby. Well, she'd seen enough of the show, and it wouldn't be very kind of her not to go and resolve it soon.
Mo Qianshang walked over quickly. There were quite a few people from Fushou Village, but there were also quite a few on her side. Ever since that incident, Third Master Wen had transferred a lot of his men here.
"Mo Qianshang is here!"
A sharp-eyed person from Fushou Village shouted, and everyone glared at Mo Qianshang with shared hatred.
Liu Xiaolan is even worse; if looks could kill, Mo Qianshang would be riddled with holes.
Would Mo Qianshang be afraid? Of course not. She glanced at them coldly, her eyes sharp, and everyone looked away.
They're just a bunch of cowardly bullies who prey on the weak.
When Third Master Wen saw that Mo Qianshang had arrived, he felt even more confident, since Mo Qianshang had a land deed.
"Mo Qianshang, you said you bought this mountain, do you have a land deed? If not, what right do you have to stop us?"
The villagers of Fushou Village began to question them, their grip on their weapons tightening.
Having already witnessed Mo Qianshang's ferocity, they dared not act rashly.
"Just report it to the authorities."
Mo Qianshang didn't want to get entangled with them any longer. She was there to do serious business, not to watch monkeys perform.
Master Wen sent someone over, and seeing how decisive Mo Qianshang was, he had no objections. He quickly ordered the authorities to arrest these people, preferably to intimidate them and prevent them from being harassed every few days.
The villagers of Fushou Village talked to the people around them. They all wanted to leave. If the government really came, and it really was Mo Qianshang's land, they would probably be arrested and locked up.
"What are you afraid of? Do you really think Mo Qianshang has the ability to buy this mountain? Where would she get so much money? She's just trying to scare us into backing down so she can have the mountain all to herself!"
"That's right, everyone, don't be afraid. I really don't believe this little girl has that kind of ability."
Liu Xiaolan continued to fan the flames. She didn't believe Mo Qianshang was capable. Even if it were true, they were unaware of it, and the government couldn't do anything to them.
Widow Chen also came along; she couldn't stand to see Mo Qianshang doing well.
