Chapter 818 The Village Beauty Lives Well 12
"Thank you for your hard work, mom. Tomorrow I will also take a walk around the village and find a chance to tell those educated youth where the secret book is!"
There was a gleam of brilliance and calculation in Mu Xi's eyes!
Father Mu added, "There's no need to reveal the secret manual too deliberately. Our house is so small. If they can't find it after searching for ten days or half a month, then that's a problem with their ability!"
Mu Xi nodded in agreement, "Dad, what you said makes sense!"
.......
The next day, Mu's mother happily went out to chat with someone.
"Xiu Lan, you look particularly happy today. Did something good happen to you?"
Aunt Osmanthus smiled and joked!
When Mother Mu heard this, her eyes lit up. Why hadn't she noticed that Aunt Guihua had such a keen eye before?
"Hey! You figured this out?"
"My husband has taken a job in the provincial capital and wants to take my mother and me to live there for ten days to half a month.
I heard that a doctor with excellent medical skills came to the provincial capital, but I don’t know whether it is true or not. I thought of taking my daughter to try my luck. Maybe he can really cure her?
I have encountered good news and I feel much happier. "
Aunt Guihua heard this and a trace of envy flashed in her eyes, "The provincial capital! I have never been to the provincial capital in my life. You are so lucky, Xiulan!"
"Yes, the best place I've ever been to is the county. I don't know if I'll ever have the chance to go to the provincial capital in my lifetime!"
A trace of envy and jealousy flashed in Aunt Chunhua's eyes, and she wished she was the one going to the provincial capital now!
"Xiu Lan is so lucky. She was penniless when she fled here from the famine. She was just pretty. She married the most promising priest in our village and lives an enviable life!"
Aunt Daya said sourly.
When Mother Mu heard what the other aunts said, she knew that her goal had been achieved today, and her smile became even brighter. "You will have opportunities in the future. The young men in our village are so filial and capable. Maybe one day we will take you to the provincial capital!"
When the other aunts heard the beautiful dream described by Mu's mother, they also smiled happily and continued to flatter each other!
After a short stroll, Mu's mother turned and went to the back mountain, intending to pick some herbs to make herbal tea!
Mu Xi strolled to the back mountain and happened to run into Mu's mother who was about to return, and a few educated youth who were hiding!
Mu's mother asked in confusion, "Xiaoxi, why are you in the back mountain?"
Mu Xi said with a smile, "The air in the back mountain is good, so I came here to relax! Mom, are you going to make herbal tea?"
Mother Mu: "Your father has been suffering from a fever recently, so I came to the back mountain to pick some!"
Mu Xi continued cheerfully, "Mom, Dad said that we will be in the provincial capital for a long time this time, and no one will be home. Dad asked you to remember to lock the small compartment, inside......"
Mother Mu frowned and interrupted, "My daughter, how can you tell this outside? What if someone hears it?"
Mu Xi said nonchalantly, "Mom, I've seen it all. I only said that because there was no one around!"
Hearing this, Mu's mother breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Be careful next time. Let's go home!"
Mu Xi smiled and took Mu's mother's arm and left, "Okay, we'll go back now!"
"I want to eat sweet and sour fish tonight, and we just happen to have fish at home!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay! All up to you, little greedy cat..."
The figures of the mother and daughter gradually walked away until they disappeared. Then the educated youth who had been hiding came out. Each of them had a different expression, and their eyes revealed surprise and greed!
Su Xiaoyan lowered her eyebrows slightly, hiding the vigilance and ambition in her eyes, "Should we continue to look for wild vegetables now?"
Li Shihan's eyes flickered and she said with a smile, "It's getting late, why don't we go back!"
For once, Su Xiaoyan did not go against Li Shihan and agreed to this decision very straightforwardly!
Zhang Weiguo saw that the other educated youth also wanted to go back, so he said naturally, "Then let's go back."
When Ye Xinyi heard that they could go down the mountain, she happily pulled Su Xiaoyan with her, blinking her big watery eyes and asking with a little curiosity, "Sister Su, what treasure do you think is in that small compartment of the Mu family? It's so mysterious?"
Su Xiaoyan's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and she said perfunctorily, "How should I know? Xinyi, you'd better pretend you haven't heard of such things! So as to avoid any trouble!"
"But......."
Li Shihan, who was walking behind, interrupted Ye Xinyi's inquiry with a smile, "Ye Zhiqing, Su Zhiqing is doing this for your own good. Just pretend you haven't heard anything about this. If something unexpected happens and we are blackmailed, we are unfamiliar with this place and I'm afraid we won't be able to get away!"
"Ye Zhiqing, there are many taboos for priests, so we'd better not ask too much, otherwise we might violate the taboo..."
Zhou Zhilin said meaningfully!
Ye Xinyi didn't know what she thought of when she heard that. She was really frightened. Her face turned pale and she shook her head repeatedly, "I'll listen to you and forget about it!"
Zhang Weiguo also reacted at this time, and said to the other educated youth, "Let's keep this matter to ourselves to avoid getting into trouble. No one is allowed to mention it again, and we will supervise each other!"
When the other educated youth heard this, they all looked scared on the surface and promised to forget about it, but who knows what they were thinking in their hearts!
Wang Zhaodi, who was walking at the back, had a dark look in her eyes, and the greed and jealousy in her heart could no longer be suppressed!
