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

Xia Bai'an slept very restlessly this time.

When I woke up, my waist was sore and my back was sore, and what came into view was the beams with spider webs still hanging on them.

The bright sunlight penetrated through the torn window paper, splitting the dark room into black and white interlaced spaces. The mountain fog hadn't dissipated yet, scrambling to cover her eyes with a layer of tulle.

dizzy.

She subconsciously rubbed her forehead and smacked the strange taste in her mouth. For a moment she didn't know if there was something wrong with the dry food she ate yesterday, or if she was drugged, why she fell asleep thinking about things yesterday.

"woke up."

Mo Che walked in from the outside, his wide cuffs were now used as pockets, and he walked towards her with many fresh fruits.

Look at Mo Che's indifferent look.

Nothing should have happened last night.

Xia Bai'an rubbed his sleepy eyes, stretched for a short while, and his mouth was full of fresh fruits full of sweet and sour juice.

While feeding him, Mo Che told her everything about the fertile fields and houses behind the house.

"It's just that there are seventy thousand holes in the ground under the house, and it won't be easy to fill them in for a while, but they can be used for other purposes."

"Well, then when I return to the capital, I will discuss with Boss Zhang and the prime minister about buying a house."

Xia Bai'an nodded seriously, seeing that Mo Che still wanted to feed him.

Can't eat it at all.

With an idea, she snatched the fresh fruit and stuffed it into Mo Che's mouth before Mo Che's habitual movement was over.

The fingertips inadvertently brushed the man's thin lips.

Mo Che wasn't surprised, instead he grabbed the troublemaker's hand and vaguely took a bite of the fruit.

"You don't go to look at the house yourself anymore?"

"If you say yes, then there is no problem. I still trust you in this regard."

Xia Bai'an was not annoyed when he was caught, and waited for him to go out together after eating with a smile on his face.

Mo Che's movement of pulling her was also a little gentler.

When the two came out, Boss Zhang and his buddy were already waiting in the carriage. Boss Zhang was relieved to learn that the two had decided to buy the manor so quickly.

"The Prime Minister always entrusted me to sell this Chizhuang. After more than ten years, I finally sold it. Anyway, I did my best."

"This Zhuangzi is called Chizhuang."

Xia Bai'an looked at the rotten plaque on the ground meaningfully, thought for a while, then his eyes fell on Mo Che, and he poked him with his elbow, "Do you think we should change the name?"

"what ever."

"Why don't you always use your brain, just let me make the decision."

"trouble."

"The mansion in the capital has always been my surname, otherwise, how does the Zhuangzi here have your surname?" Xia Bai'an said, holding his wrist with his backhand, pointing to the place where the plaque should have been placed at the gate, "Mo Chizhuang, how about it? "

Mo Che laughed: "You really don't want to change the name of the house in the capital?"

Xia Bai'an narrowed his eyes slightly.

It was called Xiafu before, because Mo Che wanted to conceal his identity, so he borrowed his own surname.

But now, Mo Che has cleared his grievances and even became a captain of the Imperial Army. It seems that there is something wrong with the name of Xia Mansion on the door.

"Then the house in the capital doesn't have my surname?" Xia Bai'an wept.

Just got the land, if you say no, it will be gone.

How about changing this place to Xiachizhuang and your own last name?

"Trouble, just follow the previous one."

Mo Che shook his head, and pulled him back into the car.

Only then did Xia Bai'an smile, and along the way, he discussed with Mo Che how to use Zhuangzi, and how to ensure safety and food when Mo Qian came here with his master to study.

Boss Zhang huddled in the corner and listened, not daring to move.

The carriage returned all the way to the capital and arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The people from the Prime Minister's Mansion heard that it was Xia Bai'an who came to the door, so they didn't stop them, and smoothly asked people to go to the side hall inside.

Boss Zhang was dumbfounded: "Master Captain, are you really on good terms with Mr. Prime Minister?"

"not me."

Mo Che said calmly, but his eyes fell on Xia Bai'an.

Xia Bai'an came back to his senses: "I helped the Prime Minister solve the epidemic before, so I have some connection. Boss Zhang came back after the epidemic was over a few days ago, so he naturally didn't know about it."

Boss Zhang opened his mouth wide.

Xia Bai'an said it lightly, but even he, who had just returned to Beijing, knew that the strange woman who helped urban and rural adults solve the epidemic did not seek wealth, but only sought an official position for her husband.

It turned out to be so young...

"Miss Xia." Sister Shen walked forward with a smile, and ordered someone to bring some scented tea and pastries, "The weather is cold these days, Madam and Young Master are suffering from the cold, and this old slave is going to come to invite you."

Xia Bai'an immediately put down the teacup.

"I'll go and have a look, Mo Che, I'll leave the affairs of the house to you and Boss Zhang."

"Go slowly."

Nanny Shen also hurriedly followed.

Steward Xu came over after hearing the sound, and learned from Boss Zhang that they wanted to buy the house, and they encountered difficulties for a while.

"Although the master wants to sell the house in a hurry, it is a ghost house after all. Don't Captain Mo and Miss Xia bother?"

"My wife's idea is that it can be used as long as it can be used. If she doesn't believe the ghosts and gods, I don't believe it either."

After Mo Che finished speaking, he thought of the price that Xia Bai'an had negotiated with himself, and said calmly, "It's just that there seem to be many stories about that mansion, how much does Steward Xu know?"

"This...speaking of it has something to do with our prime minister's mansion."

Steward Xu laughed, "Madam married far away to the capital, and she was accompanied by two maidservants, one of which is the current Nanny Shen, and the other maidservant left because she married an outsider. House."

"What does it have to do with this Chizhuang?"

"Madam thought that she took care of her for more than ten years. Now that she has found a good relationship, she couldn't bear to see her go back to the countryside, so she temporarily gave the house to the maidservant to live in, and the maidservant gave birth to a child... Unexpectedly, there was a ghost in the house. When we went to visit again after winter, the other party had disappeared.”

Speaking of this, Butler Xu already sighed repeatedly.

Mo Che raised his eyebrows, it turned out that this was the reason why the prime minister bought the house back.

"But what happened?" he asked again.

"Nothing happened, it's just that the servant girl didn't give birth to a boy in her second child, and her husband was so angry that he called her a loser. Fortunately, his husband's younger brother protected her and married her as his sister-in-law. Yes, and then break up with the family and go back to my hometown.”

"What about the rest of the family?"

"All dead."

When Butler Xu said this, he slapped his knee hard, "So, the ghosts and gods in this place are all fake, but the dead are all real, why do you..."

"I'm not afraid of death." Xia Bai'an hurried in again carrying the medicine box, and smiled slightly, "When a person dies, it just returns to the dust of the world. There is nothing to be afraid of. Butler Xu, you can sell it to me with confidence, and move in. On that day, I will go to the temple to ask a great Bodhisattva to come back."
