Chapter 461: Why Was The Whole World Fighting Him For His Wife?
Mo Beihan looked at her and said, “After the new year, would you like to go to the provincial capital with me and have some fun? I’ll bring you around, then we’ll find some time and make a trip to Nancheng.”
Gu Qingyao’s eyes gleamed with amusement. “I don’t think my teacher will let me go. She’s now teaching me very earnestly and is putting a lot of effort into my lessons. She probably won’t let me leave. Right now, she is worried that I will leave our hometown after we are married, then I’ll be busy with having children and bringing them up, and neglect my studies!”
Mo Beihan: “…”
Why was the whole world fighting him for his wife?
“Also, why are you bringing me to Nancheng? It’s so far away!”
Mo Beihan used to work in Nancheng, but he had already been transferred back, so why was he going there again?
Mo Beihan said, “I still have some things left there, so I want to make a trip and visit some friends along the way.”
Gu Qingyao hesitated inwardly. She immediately understood what Mo Beihan was referring to. He had probably hidden some treasure that could not be easily brought with him.
Mo Beihan saw that she understood, so he did not say anymore. He had lived in Nancheng for a long time, so he was familiar with the place and had many connections there. He could get many things done there.
When he was transferred back to the provincial capital, it hadn’t been convenient to bring some items with him on the train, so he had not brought much.
He had many treasures hidden in secret places at Nancheng. He was waiting for a time when he could bring Gu Qingyao to collect them.
“Is it urgent?” Gu Qingyao asked.
Mo Beihan smiled. “No. We just need to make a trip there when we have time.”
Gu Qingyao heaved a sigh of relief. So he had hidden them well.
Anyway, Brother Beihan was always reliable.
“I understand. I’ll make a trip there with you when we have time, but probably not now. The earliest will probably be in spring next year.”
Mo Beihan pursed his lips. He was rather disappointed that he could not spend some time alone with his wife sooner.
Meanwhile, in the Mo house, Jiang Yingqiu had eaten her breakfast and after some preparations, she gave the children detailed instructions and left the house.
She did not go far. There was a sheltered corner outside her house not far from her courtyard door. It was just the right spot for sunning herself, out of the winter winds.
Jiang Yingqiu opened her courtyard door and deliberately allowed others to see what was going on in the courtyard.
News of what happened in the Mo house yesterday had already spread throughout the Southern Lake Brigade and the Qing River Brigade. As a result, all the women who had nothing better to do at the end of the year were buzzing with gossip. They longed to know what the Mo family would do.
Life in the village was hard. Many people could barely support their own children. In the past, the Mo family only had two children, which was not too many.
The problem was that these two children were orphans but were not Mo Beihan’s children, only his nephews.
Life was hard and no one was willing to take on other burdens, especially with Jiang Yingqiu also in poor health.
Many people were waiting for Mo Chengrui to grow up a little over the next two years and, hopefully, set up his own household apart from Mo Beihan.
It was a surprise for them when he had gotten engaged to Gu Qingyao so quickly. Because of what had happened with Gu Ruoqing, everyone had been extremely envious of Gu Qingyao, who would marry Mo Beihan and move to the city to live in the future.
But now four more children had joined the Mo family. Everyone thought it was a big joke.
They subconsciously took great pleasure in her plight.
Now Gu Qingyao would certainly have to stay home and work like a maid.
Six children and a sickly mother-in-law. No matter how capable Mo Beihan was, he could not possibly support them.
