Chapter 148

Seeing Mo Jiuye, Peng Wang immediately associated the incident that happened last night with him.

However, looking at Mo Jiuye\'s expression, it didn\'t seem to be him either.

Peng Wang asked doubtfully, "Do you really not know?"

Mo Jiuye was a little confused.

"Why is Big Brother Peng asking this? What exactly happened?"

Peng Wang saw that Mo Jiuye\'s eyes were clear and he didn\'t look like he was lying. He sighed and said,

"I just sent someone to investigate. They said that the barge that Prince Heng was riding on caught fire on the lake last night, and Prince Heng is also missing. The government ordered people to seal off the pier and city gates until Prince Heng is found, and no one is allowed to enter or leave."

Mo Jiuye knew that Peng Wang was shrewd and would likely suspect him, so his main purpose in coming here was to dispel Peng Wang\'s doubts.

Therefore, Mo Jiuye\'s expression was even more exaggerated.

"So you mean we weren\'t able to leave here yesterday because of Prince Heng\'s arrival?"

Peng Wang observed Mo Jiuye\'s expression carefully and could now determine that Prince Heng\'s disappearance had nothing to do with Mo Jiuye.

He patted Mo Jiuye on the shoulder, "Alas... I hope those people can find Prince Heng soon so we can be on our way."

Seeing Peng Wang\'s grieved appearance, Mo Jiuye comforted him with a few words before leaving.

After a simple breakfast, Mo Jiuye also sneaked into the tent to catch up on sleep.

It wasn\'t until the afternoon that the two were fully energized again.

Hearing the movement outside the tent, it seemed like the sisters-in-law were all chatting idly.

He Zhiran thought of the filth on the ground in her dimension space that she hadn\'t had a chance to clean up yet. She might as well go tidy up now.

She took Mo Jiuye with her into the space.

Mo Jiuye also thought of this point and went straight to the bathroom, taking a broom, mop and a large bucket to the farm.

As soon as he entered the farm, he was shocked by the scene in front of him.

The crops planted in the soil had all ripened.

He Zhiran was standing in front of the control panel harvesting them.

He saw the cucumbers on the vines float up in the blink of an eye and then fall into the bamboo basket on the ground.

And they were all very orderly, automatically arranging themselves neatly...

The other crops were the same, regardless of their shape or color, they were all placed in the bamboo baskets in the same way.

What was even more magical was that the rice grains went straight into bags after being hulled...

Although he had already heard He Zhiran mention the magical nature of the space before, seeing it with his own eyes still made him feel that this was all too unbelievable.

He Zhiran was also the same. As she stood in front of the control panel watching all this, it was as if she was watching a large anime performance.

At this moment, He Zhiran was as excited as a child.

The corners of her lips turned up in a big smile, and her shallow dimples seemed to be filled with happiness.

Mo Jiuye turned his head and saw her smiling face that was as beautiful as a flower.

In all the time they had been together, this was the first time he had seen her smile so happily. Mo Jiuye was actually stunned.

He Zhiran\'s attention was completely focused on the harvesting process and she didn\'t notice Mo Jiuye.

After finishing her operations, looking at the neatly arranged food in front of her, she couldn\'t wait to take it out immediately for her family to enjoy.

It was a pity that it was not easy for these things to see the light of day.

Mo Jiuye saw her suddenly falling into a daze and went up to ask her,

"What are you thinking about?"

He Zhiran pointed at the food and said, "I was thinking about how I could let my family taste these things too."

Mo Jiuye was a little bolder.

"The officials couldn\'t find Prince Heng, so I guess they won\'t let anyone leave in a short time. Let\'s tell Big Brother Peng tomorrow that we want to go into the woods for a walk."

Upon hearing this, He Zhiran\'s eyes lit up immediately.

"That\'s a good idea of yours. I\'ll pick out some suitable food to take out then."

Anyway, with Mo Jiuye, the scapegoat, around, she had nothing to worry about.

He Zhiran used her mind to send the food she had just harvested into the space. When she turned around after finishing up, she saw Mo Jiuye seriously cleaning the bloodstains on the ground.

She could have manipulated all this with her mind originally.

But when she saw Mo Jiuye working hard, she suddenly felt a sense of home.

At the same time, a harmonious picture also flashed through her mind.

Waking up early, she was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen, while the man was sweeping the yard with a broom...

Although these were just some ordinary days that couldn\'t get any more ordinary, for He Zhiran, who had never felt the warmth of family since she was a child, it was the life she yearned for most.

She couldn\'t bear to destroy this picture, so she gave up the idea of mind manipulation.

Mo Jiuye worked very carefully, washing the places with bloodstains and dirt several times before putting away the tools when he was sure there were no more contaminants.

Looking at the time, it was almost evening. The two were afraid that their family would come to call them for dinner and discover something wrong if they stayed in the space for too long.

The two had just appeared in the tent when they heard Fourth Sister-in-law\'s voice calling for dinner from outside.

He Zhiran hurriedly responded and went out of the tent with Mo Jiuye.

After dinner, while chatting leisurely, He Zhiran saw Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai seem to have made an appointment to go find Peng Wang together.

It was some distance away, so she didn\'t hear clearly what the two said to Peng Wang.

She only saw Peng Wang waving his hands again and again, and finally yelled loudly,

"Don\'t forget your identities."

He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye looked at each other, neither knowing what had happened.

Not long after, Fang Chuanzhou and Xie Tianhai came back with drooping heads.

Second Sister-in-law was also at Xie Family\'s place. Seeing her father come back, she asked a few questions with a worried look on her face before walking back.

They might not care about other people’s affairs, but Second Sister-in-law was obviously very disappointed. He Zhiran had to ask her about it.

"Second Sister-in-law, what happened?"

Second Sister-in-law sighed.

"The silver of Xie Family and Fang Family is almost used up. My father and Uncle Fang wanted to discuss with Officer Peng to see if the team could continue staying for a period of time. They wanted to take the men in their families out to find work tomorrow, to earn some silver to supplement their income.

You saw the result of the discussion, it was fruitless. Officer Peng simply refused."

A lot had happened recently, and He Zhiran really hadn\'t paid much attention to the Fang and Xie families before.

After Second Sister-in-law\'s words, she thought about it and realized it was true.

Not to mention the food and drink of the two families, just staying at the inns along the way had cost a lot.

Even if they used it sparingly, the twenty taels of silver were probably almost gone.

The Fang Family was still alright since Mrs. Zhao\'s ring was still with her.

With the incident of her and Mo Jiuye falling off the cliff, and the two families helping Mo Family deal with the officials together, she was fully justified in returning the ring to Mrs. Zhao.

But what about Xie Family?

She couldn\'t just directly give them silver for no reason, that would change her original intention.
