It’s Hard For a Good Wife and Mother

After Wan Yan was slightly stunned, she then raised the corners of her lips and smiled unfathomably, interestingly, it turned out that this girl was the Modai who Gu Hong said had cracked the writing on the wooden board!

Wan Yan looked at Mo Dai, picked up the snacks on the porcelain plate on the table, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Although Mo Dai had already guessed that Wan Yan's official position was higher than Gu Hong's, she did not expect that she was the magistrate of Luling Prefecture. Seeing how malicious her eyes were when she sized her up, she immediately felt a little uncomfortable. So he stepped forward, without saluting, just smiled and said: "Miss, did you wash your hands after going to the latrine this time?"

Bai Duoyin originally thought that Mo Dai would salute and greet Wan Yan when she came up, but she not only avoided these etiquettes, but also said such a rebellious sentence, it seems that there is indeed some relationship between the two that she is not aware of, tsk , You have to leave quickly, so as not to harm yourself!

Bai Duoyin backed away quietly, Wan Yan didn't notice, all her attention was on her hands at this moment, and after being reminded by Modai, she also subconsciously recalled whether she washed her hands after going to the latrine.

Xiao An on the side whispered in her ear in a timely manner: "My lord, I've washed it!"

Wan Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately realized that Mo Dai had disrespected her just now: "Is your name Mo Dai? How dare you be rude to me?" She is used to being called "my lord" No, only this girl dared to call her "girl" again and again.

Mo Dai directly sat down on the seat before Bai Duoyin, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency did not bring officers and soldiers here this time, but just a private visit in disguise, right? Since it is a private visit, it is natural not to stick to common etiquette, am I right or not? "

Wan Yan stuffed the snacks into her mouth, and squinted at Mo Dai: "He is very eloquent, I like talking to smart people the most, and I won't play tricks on you anymore," Mo Dai suddenly lowered her voice, and said close to Mo Dai's ear , "I heard that you deciphered the writing on the wooden board. I came this time to ask you to make a written statement and swear a poisonous oath to me. You will never decipher those writings for others!"

Mo Dai thought it was funny, this Wan Yan was not only perverted but also arrogant and domineering, she obviously wanted something from her, but she put pressure on her with an orderly tone: "What if I don't agree?"

Wan Yan raised her eyebrows: "How dare you not agree, I will let you stay in Shuiquan Town, no, the whole Luling Prefecture has no place to stand!"

Mo Dai also raised her eyebrows: "There is more than one Luling Prefecture in the Great Moon Dynasty, and I have long wanted to see the other three states!"

"You!" Wan Yan narrowed her eyes involuntarily, "What a bold tone! Aren't you afraid that I won't make you live tomorrow?"

"Don't be afraid! As far as I know, although the magistrate of Luling Prefecture is a little weird, he is still a good official. He has never done anything like a sloppy mess with human life. Why, does your lord want to make an exception for me?"

Wan Yan shook her slanting eyebrows, her slightly slender eyes burst out with a dangerous breath, "It's not so easy for you to restrain me, I, Wan Yan, will do what I say, as you said, my good reputation has been spread Go out, then I will make up a crime for you and no one will doubt me, I will kill you as easily as killing an ant!" Wan Yan said, pointing her finger on Modai's forehead.

Mo Dai suddenly grabbed her finger and pinched the knuckle of her right index finger with a little force, and said with a faint smile: "I'm afraid your fingers are too thin, if you didn't pinch them to death, I broke my own finger instead!"

"Hmph, brat, if you promise today, you have to agree, or if you don't agree, you have to agree, otherwise, look at your family," Wan Yan swept towards Mu Qian, who was standing on the stairs in the lobby with a smiley mask on her face. Che them, "I will arrest them all and serve them with various punishments. I'm not afraid of your sharp teeth, sharp mouth, thick skin, and tough bones!"

Mo Dai pinched her joints with increasing strength, causing Wan Yan to gasp in pain, and the maid Xiao An who was standing by was so frightened that she couldn't keep silent any longer, and hurriedly stepped forward to break Modai's hand: "Girl, girl, hurry up!" Let go, my lord, my lord is most afraid of pain!"

Wan Yan's forehead was sweating in pain, but she didn't want to give up first. Now that she was exposed by her maid, her face darkened: "I will do what I say..."

Mo Dai suddenly pulled Wan Yan in front of her, brushed her face against her cheek, obviously did not touch her cheek, but it made her whole body get goosebumps: "If you dare to touch a single hair of my family, I will I want your life!" Mo Dai said coldly in Wan Yan's ear.

Wan Yan lashed out, "You are so bold and presumptuous, you dare to threaten me!"

"No, this is the most common counterattack that I, as the head of a family, face when someone wants to hurt my family! Another point, I might as well tell the adults, I will take the soft and not the hard! If you come hard, I will I don't mind snapping you apart!"

As she said that, Wan Yan really heard the sound of a crisp hard object being broken, Wan Yan's heart couldn't help shaking, she subconsciously looked at her knuckles, and saw that it wasn't her own fingers that were broken, but Mody's. He breathed a sigh of relief when his knuckles clicked.

Xiao An secretly wiped his sweat from the side, thinking, the lord has kicked the iron plate this time!

Wan Yan withdrew her hand and touched it back and forth in fear, but her face did not change at all, and she still had that gentle look: "Is it possible for the official to gently ask you not to crack it for others?"

Mo Dai summoned the second lady to bring a teacup, poured a cup of tea for herself, took it up and sipped it leisurely: "Sir, I am also a layman, if the other party brings a lot of money and asks me to break it, I will But I can't guarantee that I won't be tempted!"

"You stinky girl, you want to anger me, don't you?" Wan Yan's gentleness collapsed in an instant, and she almost slapped the table and roared.

"My lord, calm down..."

"Don't be angry! Tell me, how much do you want to get from me before you can agree? I can warn you, don't go too far. This official has always been honest and honest for the people. It doesn't matter if you eat an egg at home. You don't want to." The lion opened his mouth!"

Mo Dai glanced at the moon-white gown on Wan Yan, and Wan Yan immediately growled, "I know you're going to say that my clothes are expensive or something, daddy, I can see people with this outfit , it was rewarded by the empress, I usually wear coarse clothes at home, simple food and drink, if you don’t believe me, just ask Xiaoan!"

Xiao An quickly nodded: "Girl, everything is true, my lord!"

Mo Dai really looked at Wan Yan with admiration: "Don't worry, my lord, Cao Min just wants you to write a few words for my massage parlor!"

"Hmph, you call yourself a grassroots man now, and my name is worth a thousand dollars..."

When Mo Dai heard Wan Yan's official tone, she immediately got up and left. Wan Yan gritted her teeth angrily: "I can write the inscription for you, but if your massage parlor does something that is not good for the people, I will handle it impartially." , will never tolerate it!"

"Thank you, my lord!"

On the same day, Wan Yan sent someone to deliver a picture, and Mo Dai immediately asked Bai Duoyin to frame it to make a plaque, which will be used when the branch massage parlor opens tomorrow.

Recalling what she heard outside the hut that day, Mo Dai guessed that the reason why Wan Yan wanted to decipher those words was to pursue the man she liked, and those words should be created by that man.

Mo Dai has heard from Bai Duoyin that Wan Yan is twenty-five years old this year, and the two husbands she married last year have yet to have children. Presumably, she has been chasing that man until she is twenty-four. She really can't wait any longer, so she got married , after getting married, but still infatuated, looking for opportunities to show favor to men everywhere, deciphering this text is one of them.

The next day, Bai Duoyin's massage shop branch opened, and Bai Duoyin did a lot of publicity. There were all kinds of chrysanthemums at the entrance of the inn, and she also found a lion dance juggling troupe to dance with gongs and drums. There was a dance at the entrance of my inn, and I asked the lion dancer to dance all the way around the streets of Luling Town. After dancing for a while, it stopped to indicate that the branch of the massage parlor had opened. I just finished my words, and welcome everyone to come and join us. The price on the first day of opening will be discounted, and there will be small gifts for you. Don’t miss this opportunity and come back again.

Bai Duoyin saw many big families coming, and he couldn't help but happily said to Mo Dai: "Thanks to you girl, you let the magistrate write the inscription, the residents of this town still trust the magistrate!"

"Is it the rich who trust it, and the poor also trust it?" Modai couldn't help but said.

Bai Duoyin heard the irony in Mo Dai's words, and hurriedly said: "It is said that if a poor person sues a rich person, the magistrate will handle it justly. I haven't heard any rumors of bias and injustice. Why, girl, what happened to you?" What's wrong?"

Mo Dai told about the fact that Nayou's carriage ran over a pair of children yesterday, but she still thought that Wan Yan didn't do her job well, otherwise Nayou's family would not hit people so brazenly.

Bai Duoyin sighed: "Girl, the magistrate is also a human being, so he can't do everything well, and there are members of You's family in the imperial capital, who have more official positions than the magistrate!"

Modai also followed silently, this world is like this, it is impossible to want to be perfect, and one can only seek a more balanced mode of survival.

There were dozens of people who came for the massage, and Modai, as the only founding masseur, decided to massage the first three customers. Due to the different consumption levels in Luling Town and Shuiquan Town, Bai Duoyin raised the price of the branch hall to two taels of silver per person. On the first day, the three people who were massaged by Modai had the same price. If Modai came to the branch hall again in the future , then one massage is fifty taels for one person. Therefore, the three people who had been massaged by Modai felt that they had earned money, and in addition, Modai's massage really made them feel comfortable, so they showed off to everyone, and inadvertently made live publicity for the massage parlor.

It can be said that the business was booming on the opening day, and the business of Bai Duoyin's inn was also improved a lot. The guests were full, and it was not good for the Mo Dai family to occupy the inn room all the time, and it was inconvenient to live in the inn, especially for Xu Shaolin , when I first saw many strangers coming and going in the inn, I felt very nervous and restrained. I stayed in the room for a few days in the inn and refused to come out, and after the commotion caused by that day, Shi Mo was even more nervous all day long. Stayed in the room to sleep, so Modai planned to take the whole family back.

Bai Duoyin was a little bit sorry, although she had a house in Luling Town, but the house was small enough for five people to live in, and she only used it temporarily, and her husband-in-law and children never came. Naturally, Mo Dai didn't have any grudges, but it took nearly four days to come to Luling Town, and she only stayed here for three days before going back, and she always felt that it was not worthwhile.

On the night before departure, the Modai family had finished washing and went to the guest room to rest. There were only occasional guests passing by in the lobby. There are guests staying, and the shopkeeper does not miss any chance to make money, thinking that maybe some guests will come to reserve the last room.

As soon as Xiao Xiao touched the bed, he fell asleep not long after, and the two little Wamaru Niu also went to bed early, only Mo Daishang was sitting at the table sorting out the souvenirs he brought back this time. Most of the local products in Luling Town are related to horned deer. Of course, they are not really made from the body of horned deer, but just a name.

Mo Dai bought four sets of antler wine glasses, thinking that Gu Yue, Fengshou and Shangshui would each give one set as a souvenir. She also bought a pair of moccasin boots for the whole family, moccasin hats for the three little ones, and a whole set of carved deer in various shapes. In addition, Luling Town has a lot of snacks named after the horned deer. The residents of this town are also ingenious, and they actually made venison sausages. Mo Dai has never seen these before in the towns he brought. Of course, the meat is mostly made of pork, beef, and horsemeat. Therefore, Modai bought a lot of sausages, which are pickled products that are not easy to deteriorate. You can change the taste occasionally when you take them home, or you can give them to Gu Please them as souvenirs.

Mo Dai has sorted out the ones kept at home and the ones given to outsiders, and Xu Shaolin and the others have also prepared the food and drinking water that will be used on the road tomorrow.

Mo Dai had just turned off the light and lay on the bed, when she suddenly heard someone knock on the door, the sound was very soft, and only knocked three times, Mo Dai couldn't help but startled, thinking that she was an errand, but it was impossible, she Her hearing has always been sensitive, so she got up and subconsciously picked up a stag antler stick, which was also a local product she bought. Because she liked the series of patterns carved on it about the legend of horned deer, she actually bought three at a time. For this reason, Xu Shaolin also He glared at her and said that she didn't know how to spend money, and only bought things that were not useful.

Mo Dai walked to the door and opened it quietly, while she stayed behind the door for a long time, and no one came in after waiting for a long time. She laughed at herself, this is an inn, is she overly guarded?

Mo Dai then went to close the door, but when she stretched out her hand, a big hand grabbed her wrist from the crack of the door. She was startled, but in the next second, Shi Mo said softly: "Come out!"

Mo Dai walked out suspiciously, Mo Mo didn't seem to intend to talk to her outside the door, but pulled him towards the outside of the inn. Mo Dai then closed the door and followed him out of the inn through the corner door.

The shopkeeper sat in front of the counter and dozed off. The two nurses recognized Mo Dai and Shi Mo, and knew that they were not husband and wife. All kinds of obscene pictures come to mind.

The night wind was cold, Mo Dai shivered involuntarily, Shi Shi wanted to take her into his arms, but he suppressed it the moment his thoughts flashed, and sarcastically said with a half-smile: "She's still a woman, so weak!"

Modai glared at him, but the power was much weaker under the moonlight, not like staring, but like seducing. Shi Mo subconsciously turned away his eyes, trying to calm down the restlessness in his heart.

"Where are you taking me, this black lamp?" Mo Dai couldn't help asking, because it was night, her voice subconsciously became softer, and it sounded like soft whispers in Shi Mo's ears, especially *.

"Just follow me!" Shi Mo suppressed the unnaturalness in his voice.

Seeing that Mo Mo was very familiar with all the streets in Luling Town, Mo Dai was a little skeptical: "Master Shi, don't you stay in the inn all day?"

"That's because you didn't pay enough attention to me. I've been wandering outside all day!" Shi Mo peeked at her side face from the corner of his eye, and the hand that was holding her wrist never loosened. She also seemed to forget that she was still being held by him, and she didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

"Excuse me, have you produced any results?" Modai couldn't help joking.

"That's natural, otherwise I wouldn't bring you here tonight!" Mo Mo slipped his hand holding Mo Dai's wrist, and suddenly wrapped her soft little hand in his palm, and then pretended to be indifferent to her Talking, "This Luling Town has a good folk customs, and the lives of the people are also colorful. There are flower festivals in spring, summer and autumn. In spring, there are peach blossoms, in summer, there are lotus flowers, and in autumn, there are chrysanthemums..."

"Where is winter? There is winter..." Mo Dai wanted to say that winter has wintersweet, but suddenly thought of the tattoo of plum petals on Shi Mo's forehead, and stopped immediately.

Mo Shi continued: "There is an annual meeting in winter, from the beginning of the winter month to the end of the first month, there will be more than ten days of the annual meeting every month, the streets are all decorated in festive red, red lanterns are hung under the eaves, and red lanterns are tied to the trees. Red ribbons, extraordinarily lively!"

"Really? I really want to see the annual meeting here!" Hearing what Mo Mo said, Mo Dai felt a little yearning.

Mo Mo clenched his hands subconsciously: "If you want to see it, stay and watch it..." Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Mo Dai suddenly noticed that the hands they were holding were a bit ambiguous, so he struggled to take it away. , but Shi Mo clenched her hand even more tightly, pretending not to know, "Let's walk faster, it's at the end of this street!"

Modai was a little speechless, this man definitely did it on purpose, he actually dragged her to run quickly in order to prevent her from pulling his hand away.

When Shi Mo pulled Mo Dai to stand in front of a mansion that was not much smaller than the Mo Mansion, Mo Mo was out of breath, while Mo Dai was very calm, as if she hadn't followed Shi Mo all the way just now, Mo Mo was a little surprised Leaning at her: "Aren't you fragile?"

Modai gave him a blank look: "That's what you said."

"Pfft ha ha ha..." Shi Mo bent down with laughter, and suddenly murmured in a low voice, "Oh, I'm afraid I can't control my heart..."

Mo Dai stared at the house, didn't pay attention to what Shi Mo was saying, and only wondered: "Master Shi, what did you bring me here for? Do you want me to knock on this grand gate with a broken bowl and wait When the door opened a crack, I shook my broken bowl and asked: Is there any leftovers?"

"Pfft!" Shi Mo was teased again by Mo Dai, "You've been thinking about strange things all day long. I've bought this house. Let's move here tomorrow! Uncle Xu doesn't like to meet strangers, so I'll take the original The servants in the house have been dismissed, and all the food and clothing are available, so you can stay here forever if you want!"

Suddenly, Mo Dai took two steps back in horror and looked at Shi Mo, it's not human! With such a fluffy sentence, they bought such a big house, how can they let ordinary people like them feel so embarrassed!

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Shi Mo asked puzzled.

Mo Dai twitched the corner of her mouth: "You still have the face to ask what's wrong? Let me ask you, do you have property in all the four states of Da Yue?"

"Why, do you want to liquidate my worth now?" Shi Mo smiled evilly, but he still answered Modai's question, "No, Qin Jiu's family property has been filled into the national treasury after he is released from prison. My net worth is just the tens of thousands taels I gave you, plus this house, would you despise me for being poor?"

Mo Dai shook her eyebrows, she didn't know who Qin Jiu was, but vaguely guessed that it was a wound in Shi Mo's heart, she couldn't bear to touch it: "Okay, Mr. Shi, I'm willing to bow down to you little girl! We should go back The inn!"

"Don't you want to go in and have a look?" Shi Mo looked at her expectantly.

Mo Dai turned around: "Don't look, Zuo Zuo will move in tomorrow, won't he? Come back!" Then she walked back.

Shi Mo looked at Mo Dai's back, lowered his eyes desolately, stood still, a tree shadow protruded from the wall, hiding his face in the dark, only the black robe blown by the night wind was in the moonlight. The color is like a black flag.

Mo Dai walked a foot away and stopped, then suddenly turned around and walked back, pulling Mo Shi's sleeves and walking back.

"Aren't you unwilling to talk to me? Why are you coming back?" Shi Mo sarcastically said with some resentment.

"You're a man, I'm worried about leaving you here alone!" Mo Dai said ferociously.

"Do you think I'm a man?" Shi Mo stopped in his tracks again.

"Are you a woman?" Mo Dai turned around and looked at him with some amusement.

"Are you going to change the subject?"

"What do you want me to say?"

"..." Shi Mo was suddenly speechless, a little angry, but he knew that he couldn't be angry with Mo Dai, she didn't do anything, it was just that he had unilaterally expected her.

Shi Mo lowered his eyes, raised them again, and suddenly burst out a dangerous and aggressive light like a beast, and under the moonlight, there was a layer of faint green light, like a hungry wolf before hunting.

"Come here, I'll tell you!" Shi Mo said, but Modai ran away subconsciously.

Shi Mo twitched the corner of his mouth, and suddenly kicked his foot on the trunk of a big tree by the street, only heard a rustling sound, and several dead leaves swirled and fell from his head. Shi Mo gritted his teeth, and said bitterly: "What, stinky woman, you actually scared her away, she has no manliness at all!" As she spoke, she felt funny again, so she held onto the tree trunk and laughed for a long time.

"Hey, Mr. Shi, are you going or not?" Mo Dai's voice suddenly came again.

Shi Mo raised his head to look at her, and said disdainfully: "Didn't you scare him away? Why did you come back again?" Don't let his heart sink even deeper, okay?

"Who, who scares you away? I just feel cold, so I just run away!" Mo Dai gritted her teeth and said, "Hurry up, the corner door of the inn will be closed soon!"

"I can't walk anymore, come and carry me!" Shi Mo leaned against the tree trunk and said roguely, "I'm a man, I'm weak, don't worry about me, right? Come and carry me!"

Mo Dai couldn't help but shrieked: "Mo Mo, you've had enough, go quickly, if you don't go, I really don't care about you!"

"Tsk, a heartless woman!" Shi Mo accepted it as soon as he saw it, and walked towards Mo Dai, regardless of whether Mo Dai was willing or not, he forcefully grabbed her hand and wouldn't let go.

Modai glared at him sideways, but he looked up at the sky. Mo Dai sighed, it's not that she couldn't break free, but she was afraid that breaking free would hurt his heart, even though he is so strong, maybe his heart is so fragile that Mo Wufeng is not as good. Mo Dai also knew that such an ambiguous attitude of hers was not advisable, maybe it would hurt him even more in the end.

"Shi Mo, we, it's impossible, do you understand?" Modai tried to explain clearly to him.

"I haven't tried it yet, how do you know it's impossible?" Shi Mo replied as a matter of course, "Do you think I'm ugly?"

Maude shook her head.

"That's right, do you know why you don't think I'm ugly? That's because you have me in your heart, silly girl, you haven't even discovered your own mind, you're so stupid!"

Modai's scalp is numb, what's the matter? This graphite is clearly leading her into the gutter! She didn't think he was ugly, it was because she came from the modern world, she was well-informed, and her aesthetics were different from this world, but she couldn't tell him the reason.

"I don't feel that way about you..."

"That's because you are dull, you haven't noticed yet!"

"you…"

"There's nothing to say! Don't worry, I won't force you, I will wait until you find out what you like about me!"

"..."

"Don't you think the moonlight is very good tonight?"

"..."

Modai really wanted to strangle the dead man next to him, could he be any more shameless?

At the same time, in a certain room of the inn, Xiao Xiao was fast asleep, and Mo Xiaoyu rubbed his eyes in a daze to find his mother: "Mom, I want to pee..."

Fortunately, Xiao Xiao didn't fall asleep completely. After Mo Xiaoyu called four or five times, he woke up, but his mind was still a little unclear: "Ah? He opened his mouth wide and yawned.

There is a urine bucket in the room, Xiao Xiao hugged Mo Xiaoyu to urinate. After Mo Xiaoyu finished urinating, Mo Xiaoyi wanted to urinate too. When Xiao Xiao put Mo Xiaoyi on the bed, she suddenly realized that Mo Dai was gone, she was startled, but then she thought, Mo Dai must have found her husband's room in the middle of the night, right?

A wretched smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Xiao's mouth, and then he lay down on the bed again, and soon fell asleep again.

In this room, Mo Dai and Mo Mo stepped into the corner door under the ambiguous eyes of the two nurses, Mo Dai was about to enter the room, but Shi Mo said: "Do you want to come to my room?"
