The village chief led the way, and Mu Qingcheng followed behind, holding the village chief's wife's hand. They passed through the village, attracting countless onlookers along the way. Mu Qingcheng allowed them to look at her openly, wondering if Yun Qing's presence would cause even more of a stir.

"Aunt Zhang, whose girl did you bring home? Why is she so pretty?" The village chief's wife's surname is Zhang.

A round-faced woman asked the village head's wife about Mu Qingcheng, and the other villagers pricked up their ears to listen. The village head's wife held Mu Qingcheng's hand with the same pride as if she were holding her own daughter.

"Ha! His fat aunt, this is Miss Mu who is going to settle in our village. She has an older brother who will be here in two days."

"What? This girl is going to settle down in our village? Oh my! Such a good thing." The villagers' emotions were instantly ignited.

The village chief's wife continued, "That's not all. They're also planning to buy land and property in our village!"

"Oh my! Girl, you have a really good vision. Our village is a Feng Shui treasure land. Girl, let me tell you, there is a vacant residential land next to my house. You can choose that piece of land, and we will be neighbors in the future." The fat aunt pushed everyone away, took the lead in pulling Mu Qingcheng to go see the land.

"Ah, alas! Fatty, don't you see how big that piece of land is? Use it to build a toilet for your family!"

"That's all because of your stinky mouth, Zhang Dazhu." The fat aunt took out a laundry stick and was about to hit Zhang Dazhu.

The villagers all laughed heartily. There was no mockery on their innocent faces; it was just a joke among acquaintances. Mu Qingcheng really liked this kind of atmosphere; it gave her a sense of intimacy with fellow villagers.

"Alright, alright, don't let the little girl laugh at you. Just disperse! Go home."

The village chief gave the order and the villagers dispersed, but some people did not want to disperse. Those who stayed were the village's intelligence officers. They had to stand on the front line and have first-hand information.

There were also some young girls and wives, all of whom were at the age of loving beauty. They couldn't take their eyes off Mu Qingcheng's clothes, and they wished they could engrave the pattern in their hearts so that they could trace it out when they got home and secretly embroider such a beautiful skirt for themselves.

A group of people walked towards the fields in a mighty procession. The village chief pointed to the vast fields and showed them to Mu Qingcheng.

"This is all Daxi Village's land, all the way to the other side of the mountain."

Daxi Village is the largest village nearby, with a large population and plenty of land.

"These are all accumulated by generations of our ancestors who have been clearing wasteland. What a pity! The harvests have been poor in the past two years, and a lot of land has become barren."

"Oh! Uncle Village Chief, why do you say the harvest is bad?"

"Hey! To be honest, there hasn't been enough rain in the spring for the past two years. The spring drought has caused the water level to drop, and the fields need a lot of manpower to irrigate. Families with insufficient manpower can only watch large areas of wheat seedlings die of drought. A reduction in grain production is inevitable. After working like this for a year, there is not much left of the grain produced in the fields after paying taxes.

If it's a good year with plenty of rain, it would save both time and manpower, and if we open up more land, we can harvest more food, but who can predict the fate of God?

Mu Qingcheng is a novice in farming, how would she know these things?

"Miss, do you really want to buy fifty acres of land? Isn't that too much? How about discussing it with your brother and buying ten acres first?"

Mu Qingcheng understood that the village chief had good intentions and was afraid that the brother and sister would spend money recklessly.

"Village chief, you don't know, but the money we have now is all our mother's dowry. My uncle has been helping to manage it all these years. After we came to Yunzhou, my uncle returned our mother's dowry to us. After my uncle's house was ransacked, my cousin was left penniless. We originally wanted to give some of our mother's dowry to my cousin, but unfortunately he refused. That's why my brother and I want to buy land. In the future, our household registration will be together and we will be one family, and our land will be my cousin's land."

After hearing this, the village chief repeatedly praised the Mu brothers and sisters for their thoughtfulness, and also praised the Moyu brothers and sisters for their noble character.

"You are all good children! Don't worry, uncle will allocate a good piece of land for you. What do you think of the land next to the river bank?"

This was Mu Qingcheng's first time dealing with such a major purchase as land. The largest items she had ever bought were phones and computers. But she came with a mission. Yun Qing had said the money came from unknown sources, and they had to make it theirs.

No matter how Mu Qingcheng thought about it, it felt like money laundering! Oh well! Never mind. It wasn't her own money, so she didn't feel bad at all.

The village chief asked, "Do you brothers and sisters need to discuss this further?"

"No need to discuss it. My brother is not in good health, so please ask the village chief to allocate land for us. We trust the village chief."

"Okay, okay, I'll get you the land deeds when I get back. Why don't you choose a homestead together? Tomorrow morning, have your cousin accompany me to the county government office. That's the perfect time to get the house deeds, land deeds, and household registration all done at once."

"It's almost noon now. Please write down your name and age on the household registration so I can register you."

Mu Qingcheng agreed readily.

“Cousin, cousin…!”

A clear and cheerful voice came from behind. Mu Qingcheng turned around unconsciously and saw another group of people walking out of the village. The leader was Xiao Hei, followed by three girls.

One of the little girls was skipping and running towards her with her skirt lifted up.

"Cousin, cousin, you miss me so much!"

A little girl threw herself into her arms, put her arms around her waist, and rubbed her chest.

Uh! Who are you? Mu Qingcheng was in a state of confusion.

It was a bit confusing. To avoid being caught, she forced a fake smile, pulled the little girl out of her chest, and took a closer look.

This was a little girl, about eleven or twelve years old, with baby fat and still not fully grown up. She had round eyes and chubby lips, and was so cute and adorable. Mu Qingcheng immediately knew who she was.

"Sister Muyao, I miss you so much too!" Pinching Muyao's chubby little face, Mu Qingcheng was instantly captivated by her. "Have you gained weight again recently?"

"No way! I've lost a lot of weight! Did you bring me anything delicious?"

Mu Yao spoke in a childish voice, which melted Mu Qingcheng's heart. How could she, who wanted to be a sister, bear it?

"Really? Let me see, oh my! You've lost a lot of weight! I'll take you to buy some delicious food right now."

"Great, great!" Mu Yao clapped her hands happily.

A picture of deep sisterly love unfolded in the fields, and all the onlookers dared not disturb the beautiful and warm scene of the two sisters.

The village chief's wife immediately wiped away her tears, and the village chief was also very pleased. He thought that these children had suffered so much, but they could still put aside their past grudges and love each other.

"Mu Yao, stop messing around." The speaker was Su Qingyan, who had hurried over. She still appeared in front of everyone with half of her face covered with a handkerchief.

Mu Qingcheng called out without hesitation: "Cousin Qingyan."

Su Qingyan smiled and held Mu Qingcheng's hands with both hands and said, "Sister Cheng'er, I'm glad to see you. After listening to what your brother said, I have been worried for several days. I'm glad that you are okay."

Linglong stepped forward and politely bowed to Mu Qingcheng: "Linglong greets my cousin."

Look at how standard and elegant their etiquette is. Mu Qingcheng felt a little guilty. This young lady must be here to expose fakes!

Mu Qingcheng stepped forward to help Linglong up and said, "Linglong has suffered too."

Xiao Hei: “……!” I am a secret guard, I can remain silent.

Each member of this "family" has superb acting skills and their performance is spot on.

The villagers watched from afar, thinking, "This is the daughter of a wealthy family! Oh my! It's so pleasing to the eye!"
