Chapter 545: Chapter 545: Dim Light
“All right! All right!” the village head readily agreed.
By the ti the discussion concluded, the sky had grown very dark, and it was pitch black outside; every household had already closed their doors.
Xuexue stood up, said goodbye to the village head, and was ready to leave with Mo Xiaoqiang.
“Little Sister Xuexue, it’s so dark outside, and pitch black everywhere; it’s not very safe. Let
walk you ho,” Mo Shaoxing, holding a small lantern, had been waiting outside the gate.
Xuexue gave him a cold glance, “This is Mo Family Village; what’s unsafe about it? Are you questioning your dad, the village head’s managent?”
“Of course not, I just wanted to walk you back,” Mo Shaoxing, not wanting to be scolded by his dad, hurriedly denied.
“I have my dad to walk
back; do I need you?”
Saying this, she stepped into the darkness.
Xuexue’s sharp-tongued nature left Mo Shaoxing with an embarrassed expression, holding the lantern like a fool, standing there not knowing what to do next.
Knowing that Mo Shaoxing had feelings for Xuexue, Mo Xiaoqiang could hardly contain his excitent, thinking how lucky his daughter’s romantic life was. Big Bull had just left, and now Scholar Mo Shaoxing, the village head’s son, of a prestigious status in Mo Family Village, had co. How wonderful!
“Shaoxing, if you want to treat Xuexue well, you can’t rush these things, you have to take it slow. Big Bull just left, and she’s sad; a transition period is needed,” Mo Xiaoqiang patted Mo Shaoxing’s shoulder, his face full of joy.
“Yes! Exactly.”
Mo Xiaoqiang tried to ingratiate himself, showing he was willing to accept him, which made Mo Shaoxing very happy, and he beca imdiately excited.
“Dad, are you coming or not?” Xuexue’s impatient voice ca from the darkness.
“Yes! Here I co!” Mo Xiaoqiang, busy answering, then turned his head back to make a ‘go for it’ gesture to Mo Shaoxing before he followed after Xuexue.
“Xuexue, wait for Dad.”
By the ti they got ho, a dim oil lamp had already been lit in the house.
Madam Xie and Chuner were sitting in the main hall, with dinner already set on the table, waiting for them to return.
“Xuexue, how did it go?” Seeing the father and daughter return, Madam Xie stood up and ca forward to ask.
“It’s all good! The village head said our farmland has been registered at the County Yan; grandmother’s family can’t take it from us.”
“That’s wonderful! Today nearly scared
to death,” Madam Xie, who had been worried all day, finally relaxed, “You all must be hungry, co over and eat.”
Saying this, she walked to the table and started removing the lids from the dishes one by one.
“I really am hungry!” Mo Xiaoqiang rubbed his stomach, his mood relaxed, and suddenly felt his stomach rumbling loudly; he quickly walked to the table, attracted by the delicious sll of the food, almost drooling.
“My dear, your cooking skills are getting better and better.”
“What good? This is the roasted chicken Xuexue bought; I just chopped it into small pieces, I haven’t done anything special!” Madam Xie was not impressed by Mo Xiaoqiang’s flattery.
“Well, it’s your knife skills; they make the cut look good and cheer up the mood.”
“Then you just watch us eat instead of eating yourself.”
“I can’t do that, I was worried all day today and didn’t even eat lunch,” Mo Xiaoqiang said, then grabbed a bowl and chopsticks, not caring about manners, and began to eat the dishes.
Chuner grabbed the bowl from his hand, saying, “Dad also did a good job today, here, let
serve you so rice.”
“Chuner is really sweet.” Mo Xiaoqiang felt moved; it had been so long since he had experienced family warmth, and he cherished this mont of coziness, wishing ti could pause right there so his family could always be whole and happy together.
