Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

Mo Che didn't return all night.

In the early morning of the next day, a carriage from the Qian Mansion brought the three children back intact, and Tie Zhu, who had not recovered from his injuries, brought a message to Mo Che: "Your brother said that there are still some things that need to be done in the Qian Mansion. Stay and tell you to take care of things at home."

Take care of what?

Xia Bai'an thought that the matter of aloe vera cream was not a big deal.

On the contrary, Mo Che seems to be more and more unscrupulous in doing things now, and he doesn't care that he still bears the reputation of his cousin.

After Xia Bai'an thanked Tie Zhu, he called Mo Qian to ask, "What is your father doing outside?"

"I don't know the specifics."

Mo Qian shook his head and didn't understand. Seeing Xia Bai'an's worried eyes, he hurriedly said, "But last night, I heard Mo Che say that when the time comes, the Qian family and the Zhang family will send him to the capital, and he will bring us with him."

Xia Bai'an's heart skipped a beat.

A few days ago, the Yunhua powder in Mo Che's body relapsed again, and the poison spread. In addition to her busy days, she did not forget to make medicine for him to replenish his body.

Fortunately, he actually kept it from himself and wanted to go to the capital so soon.

I really don't take my body seriously.

It's a pity that Mo Che is not here now, and she has no way to vent her anger, so she can only go to see how the abandoned house is being built angrily, and then count all the belongings up and down, plus the Qian family and Zhang family sent her The things you bought, as well as the deposit for doing business, and some of the money may have to go to other places to buy the first batch of aloe vera and medicinal materials...

In the end, even if the herbs in Jishitang hadn't matured yet, the contract couldn't be easily broken.

There are so many things.

Xia Bai'an, holding an oil-paper umbrella, first took the mother and daughter of Li Shugen's family next door under his command, sorted out the matter of aloe vera paste and back mountain medicinal materials, and then found the village chief's wife and spoke frankly.

"Auntie, you are the best at talking, and you know the importance. In a few days, the business route between these two companies will probably go through Qian Laosan's hands. At that time, you will have to help take care of it. As for the money, I will take care of it." Since I will say hello to Qian Laosan, you will be indispensable."

Hearing this, the village head's wife wiped her hands nervously, and stepped forward at a loss: "I said, daughter-in-law of the Mo family, you are making me a lot of money, but if you do this by yourself, wouldn't it be..."

"I still have three children in my family. You also know that there is no private school in our village, let alone a scholar. Maybe I will take my children to study elsewhere in the future. Don't bother you."

Since you're leaving, let's find out the reasons first.

Xia Bai'an thought so, he didn't write a draft when he told a lie, his face was red and his heart didn't beat.

The village head's wife knew it well, and didn't continue to refuse, and agreed without hesitation.

After resolving the matter, Xia Bai'an walked home slowly.

It was a road that was neither long nor short, but the rain curtain became thick and thick, almost covering Xia Bai'an's eyes, only seeing a haze in front of his eyes, only the messy sound of rainstorm was left in his ears.

Suddenly, a silver-white thunderbolt fell from the sky, as if tearing the sky apart, one after another, illuminating the heavy rain curtain like daytime.

Xia Bai'an felt a slight chill on the back of his neck, and saw that the surrounding villagers opened their windows to see this spectacle.

But she heard the sound of horseshoes among the noise, and the image of officials riding horses in the mountains and forests flashed in her mind.

Not far away, at the abandoned house she bought, a streak of silvery-white-purple lightning suddenly fell, and there were screams one after another.

She rushed there in a hurry, and she didn't feel anything when her dress was wet.

This feeling is very bad.

It didn't look like Mo Che had turned black, it was more like a hand gently pushed the back of her neck slowly and methodically, like a guide, but also like a lingering caress between a lover, which made her feel confused.

She even felt for a moment that the force on the back of her neck was not some blackening detector.

but a person.

She was taken aback by this thought. When she came to the abandoned house, a wall that had just been built had been split open, and the ground was scorched black.

And Lai Majiang was sitting not far away, covered his face in horror and shouted: "Something happened! Something happened! The gods and Buddhas have brought disasters. It was like this more than 20 years ago, and it is like this today! Something big is going to happen!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, Carpenter Lai..."

"I'm not talking nonsense! You don't know that it was an ordinary day, but in an instant, it was raining cats and dogs, and there were scattered lightnings in the sky... By the way, it was the official from the capital, Mo Che, who came to our Yunmai Village. That day was also like this..."

Xia Bai'an's footsteps stopped.

Isn't natural vision the standard match for the birth or turning point of the hero and heroine and the villain?

She turned her head and saw that the lightning in the sky gradually subsided, and the surrounding rain gradually became smaller, and her heart trembled slightly.

Could it be that Mo Che did something that brought about a turning point?

She couldn't notice it, so she could only help Bricklayer Lai and repeatedly asked: "Quickly tidy up these houses."

Carpenter Lai was terribly frightened, and seeing Xia Bai'an's serious eyes, his legs trembled in fright, so he hurriedly ordered people to rush to catch up with the work.

And Xia Bai'an stood under the porch, looking at the collapsed wall, feeling uneasy in his heart.

This is the world in the book.

Maybe every natural phenomenon in the world represents a sign.

I don't know if it's good or bad.

She was silent for a long time, but still couldn't hold back, she went back to the house and entrusted the children to Li Shugen, and went to Qingshan Town alone. Take me with you."

"Ah."

Xia Bai'an did not refuse, he straightened his hat, and the two hurried to Qingshan Town.

As soon as I entered Qingshan Town, I saw a few officials in black and red clothes that I had never seen before guarding the entrance. Although it was still raining in the whole town, passers-by on the road were in a hurry, and some officers and soldiers even rushed to the entrance. They stopped.

"Who are you? What are you doing in town?"

Xia Bai'an said respectfully: "I am Xia Bai'an from Yunmai Village, the daughter of the rich man Xia, and this is my son Mo Qian. We are about to discuss business routes. Where did the officials come from? What is the name of this town? What happened?"

The official looked her up and down, and then asked, "Business Road? You and Mo Zhiqian have a good relationship?"

Call the county magistrate by his name?

Suspicion arose in Xia Bai'an's heart, but he nodded on his face: "It's kind of friendly, it's not that Mr. Mo helped us open a business route, we have to talk to make it happen."

"Just talking?"

"Don't make fun of me, my lord. Seeing that my son is so old, can Mr. Mo still take a fancy to me?"

Xia Bai'an chuckled a few times.

Seeing that Mo Qian was about ten years old, the official took another deep look at Xia Bai'an, reluctantly agreed with her words, and said, "But today, I'm afraid we won't be able to talk about business routes... We found out that Mo Zhiqian once Killed the illegitimate son of a noble family in the capital, and the nobleman has been looking for it for several months. Unexpectedly, he was brought here and even got an official position. The matter was reported to the court, but in exchange for the emperor's anger Anger! We came here this time to arrest him, send him to the capital, and behead him for public display!"
