After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

Ling Chuan left, and Xia Mo did not retract his gaze until his figure disappeared at the door. Then he raised his right hand and touched the place where he had just been kissed.

They...have officially confirmed their relationship, right? Xia Mo thought, and the corners of his mouth rose involuntarily.

So he turned around, put his hat away, and then ran back to the room. He went straight to his bed and took a look. Sure enough, he saw a small box inside the pillow.

That’s right, the money inside was what Lingchuan left for him.

Xia Mo thought about it and decided to put the box on the table and open it to take a look.

What he didn't expect was that in addition to the silver, there was also an exquisite dagger in the box!

Xia Mo blinked and stared at the dagger for a long time. Since this thing was also placed in it, it must be a gift for him, right?

Looking at the dagger, Xia Mo couldn't help but think of Ling Chuan's words that were suddenly interrupted by him on their way back.

So, was that what he wanted to tell me? Was this dagger the one he wanted to give me for self-defense? Xia Mo thought about it and suddenly felt regretful.

Alas, why was he so angry at that time! No wonder Ling Chuan was so cold and didn't want to pay attention to him...

Xia Mo wailed in his heart for a while before turning his gaze back to the dagger.

He reached out and grabbed the dagger, looked at it carefully, and then rubbed the winding texture on the scabbard with his fingertips.

Hmm... didn't people in ancient times have a token of love? Ling Chuan had just confessed his love to him, so does this dagger count as a token of love?

Well, I guess so...

Xia Mo nodded as he answered his own question. He suddenly felt happy in his heart and played with the dagger in his hand for a long time. He even couldn't let it go. He happily decided to carry it with him every day in the future...

The day passed quickly.

Xia Mo's mood went up and down like a roller coaster, and he couldn't calm his agitated heart for a long time.

Even when it was already night, he tossed and turned, always feeling something was not right.

Finally, after tossing and turning for more than a dozen times, he could no longer lie still. He sat up straight, then pursed his lips, his eyes involuntarily looking towards the empty bed.

It turned out that the strong feeling of discomfort in his heart was because there was suddenly one person missing in the room, and he didn't know where he was now... Xia Mo lowered his eyelids and thought.

He sat there for a while, still not feeling sleepy, so he turned around, picked up the cat puppet next to his pillow, and poked its forehead a few times with his fingers, gritting his teeth and saying, "Humph, you messed up my mood and then ran away. Look how capable you are, you are such a dog."

Obviously, he mistook it for someone.

……

The next day, because Xia Mo slept late the night before, he also woke up late. It was already noon when he got up.

So not long after he had his breakfast, Liu Yingying and Liu Yu came to his door.

"Ze brother." It was Liu Yingying's voice.

Xia Mo, who was drying bamboo shoots in the yard, turned around when he heard the sound and saw her and Liu Yu standing at the door. He immediately said in surprise, "Sister Yingying, Brother Yu, you are here!"

The two of them smiled and said "hmm", then walked straight up to Xia Mo.

Liu Yu looked at the large rack of bamboo shoots and asked in confusion: "Ze'er, why are you drying these? They don't taste good."

"Of course you eat it after drying it in the sun. How can it not taste good? Have you ever eaten it?" Xia Mo asked back.

Liu Yu nodded, "We dried them at home before, and then fried them and they became hard and tasted bad."

"I think so too." Liu Yingying also echoed.

Hard?

Xia Mo felt something was wrong when he heard it, and asked them uncertainly: "Are you guys just soaking it in water?"

"Of course not, I just simply boiled it and soaked it for a while." Liu Yu replied.

"Oh, no wonder it's hard. Yu'er, Yingying, this needs to be cooked for a long time. It's best to change the water while cooking. After cooking, cut it thinner and soak it again." Xia Mo explained.

Liu Yu said, "So that's how it is." But she was half-believing and half-doubting in her heart, wondering whether she should go back and give it a try?

"That's right... Oh, by the way, why don't you guys go sit down first, I'll dry the remaining bamboo shoots first, it'll be quick." Xia Mo said as he quickened his movements.

Seeing this, Liu Yingying smiled and said, "No need. We are not tired, right, Yu'er? Besides, we came here just to tell you about Xiaomai."

"Ah? You found the wheat? Who sells it?" Xia Mo's eyes instantly brightened up when he heard that. As long as he bought the wheat, he could start the first step of his maltose-making business.

"There are four or five families in the village that grow wheat. Yu Ge'er and I went to inquire yesterday... If you want to buy some, Uncle Hong's price is more affordable." Liu Yingying said slowly.

Xia Mo's eyes widened when he heard this, and he looked at them in surprise, "Did you go to inquire about it yesterday?"

Xia Mo really didn't expect that Liu Yingying and Liu Yu would take this matter so seriously. To be honest, if they hadn't come to him today, he might not have thought about it for the time being.

If you want to blame someone, blame the person who messed with his thoughts yesterday, huh.

Seeing Xia Mo's surprised look, Liu Yu immediately laughed and said, "Don't be so surprised. This is not a difficult thing. You can find out by asking people."

Ahem, actually it was more because they were too excited at the time, so as soon as Ze Ge'er and Ling Chuan left yesterday, the two of them couldn't sit still...

"Since Uncle Hong's is the best, let's buy his. Do you have anything to do later? Or would you like to accompany me? Brother Ling is not at home, and I'm afraid I may not be able to move back by myself."

Xia Mo immediately bought the house from Uncle Hong. He didn't believe what others said, but he absolutely trusted what Liu Yingying and Yu Ge'er said.

"Ah? Brother Ling is not here?" Liu Yingying asked in surprise, and then looked at Yuger.

Xia Mo just bent down to pick up the bamboo shoots, and didn't see their embarrassed expressions, so he continued: "Yes, he is going out for a few days, and he told me about this yesterday."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Then, Ze brother, does Brother Ling know that you want to make malt sugar? Also, can the three of us make it?" Liu Yingying said implicitly.

In fact, what she wanted to talk about was money. After all, wheat was not cheap. She was afraid that Ze Ge'er would take the lead and Ling Chuan would not know anything. If that happened, Ze Ge'er would be the one who would suffer.

They don't want this matter to ruin their relationship.

Xia Mo smiled when he heard this: "Of course I know, the three of us can do it, don't worry, Sister Yingying."

When Liu Yingying and Liu Yu heard this, the worry in their eyes was immediately wiped away, "That's good... We are free."
