"Who allowed you to eat? Scram! This is the money I earned!"
Tao Lengshuang didn't give him a single pleasant look, and even used her plump body to block him.
Mo Lingxi decisively sealed her acupoints, pushed her aside, and continued to eat. He even put a lot of meat on Xiao Feng's plate.
Unable to move or speak, Tao Lengshuang stared at him with angry eyes, trying to get him to unseal her acupoints. kuAiδugg
Unfortunately, Mo Lingxi was unmoved. He even stopped Xiao Feng from speaking with his eyes.
By the time the father and son finished their meal, there wasn't a grain of rice or a shred of vegetable left, except for the bowl of rice in Tao Lengshuang's hand.
After the meal, Mo Lingxi unsealed her acupoints and took Xiao Feng back to their room.
Tao Lengshuang was so angry, she really wanted to kill Mo Lingxi, but she was no match for him.
She quickly finished her meal and stomped into the room, looking at him coldly, "Mo Lingxi, let's talk outside."
"No time," Mo Lingxi dropped the two words without any warmth.
Tao Lengshuang crossed her arms and let out a cold laugh, "No time, huh?"
"Fine, then don't blame me for making you uncomfortable in new ways every day."
"Daddy," Xiao Feng tugged at Mo Lingxi's sleeve. "Can you talk to Mommy properly? What Daddy did just now was really wrong. That was the dinner Mommy worked hard to make, and the money Mommy worked hard to earn."
Mo Lingxi gently patted his head, glanced at Tao Lengshuang, and then went to the courtyard.
Tao Lengshuang comforted Xiao Feng a few times, then took the seeds to the courtyard. As she planted them, she said softly, "From now on, we'll mind our own business."
"We'll divorce in a year."
In a year, she should be able to earn a sum of money.
Once her life improved and she no longer had to let Xiao Feng suffer, she would divorce this scoundrel.
Anyone who wanted this kind of man could have him.
Mo Lingxi estimated the time and stood with his hands behind his back, "Agreed."
"I'm taking Xiao Feng."
Tao Lengshuang almost smashed him on the head with a hoe. "You want to take Xiao Feng? Fine, I'll poison you first."
A hint of killing intent flashed in Mo Lingxi's eyes, and his hands clenched for a moment. "You're seeking death!"
Seeing Mo Lingxi like this, Tao Lengshuang felt a chill from the bottom of her heart, as if she saw the Mo Lingxi from when she first transmigrated. She couldn't help but swallow.
"Xiao Feng is my life. I won't let him follow you."
After a pause, he added, "You know your own situation best. Do you want Xiao Feng to live a life of intrigue and deceit forever?"
Mo Lingxi suddenly leaned close to her, his hand gripping her neck, his voice filled with menace, "It's best if you don't say things you shouldn't, or I won't hesitate to let Xiao Feng lose his mother."
His identity couldn't be exposed for the time being, otherwise, the plan would be greatly affected and would bring endless trouble.
As the air grew thinner, Tao Lengshuang felt death approaching. She coughed forcefully, "Don't worry, as long as you don't take Xiao Feng, I won't drag you down with me by sacrificing my own life."
It seemed that Mo Lingxi's identity was not just not simple, but extremely complicated and fraught with danger.
She had to stay away from such a man, or her life would be in danger at any moment.
Mo Lingxi threw her away and wiped his hands on his body. "You won't get that chance."
The large-bodied Tao Lengshuang crashed heavily onto the ground, gritting her teeth in pain. "Whether you get that chance or not isn't up to you."
"This is my only demand. If it cannot be met, I don't know what I'll do."
Suddenly, a sharp dagger was placed at her neck, followed by Mo Lingxi's murderous voice.
"Don't threaten me, I can kill you anytime."
The dagger cut through her skin.
The stinging pain made Tao Lengshuang's mind clearer, and she also realized how vast the gap in strength was between her and Mo Lingxi.
No.
She had to proceed slowly and find a better way to keep Xiao Feng by her side.
"I understand," she lowered her eyes, concealing the sharp glint and keenness within.
Mo Lingxi could see that this woman wasn't truly submitting. He retracted the dagger. "Xiao Feng following you will not end well. The Tao family alone can torment you and Xiao Feng to death."
Tao Lengshuang stood up, patted the dust off her body, and continued planting.
It wasn't difficult to deal with the Tao family. The most important thing now was to make money and become rich.
Without money, how could she raise Xiao Feng well, send him to private school, and give him a good life?
She still needed to make money as soon as possible.
With this thought, she became full of energy, not even noticing when Mo Lingxi left.
After finishing these tasks, she returned to the kitchen to prepare her bed.
She spread a thick layer of grass on the ground, then covered it with old clothes, making it barely habitable.
It was still early, so she sat on the bed thinking about making money.
The cordyceps in her spatial medicine garden could be sold, but she couldn't sell it in her current state, nor could she sell it in Lotus Town.
She had to go to Dongdu to sell it.
She currently had five or six taels of silver. This money should be enough to build a new house, but she also needed to consider the things needed for winter.
She had to prepare winter clothing, quilts, beds, and food as soon as possible, otherwise, this winter would be very difficult to get through.
If she didn't build a new house, even a slight gust of wind would be too much for this dilapidated house to withstand.
It seemed she had to go to Dongdu another day to sell some cordyceps, so she could build the house and prepare for winter at the same time.
However, considering the greedy, selfish, and malicious Tao family, these two matters had to be delayed.
At least, until she dealt with the Tao family and made them afraid to do anything to her casually, then she could proceed with these two matters.
How could she deal with the Tao family so that they wouldn't dare to do anything to her easily?
Tao Lengshuang thought of her medical skills and immediately had an idea.
Using the medicinal herbs she had, she made a specially formulated itching powder, and a sinister smile curved her lips. This itching powder could also be used on Mo Lingxi.
If that scoundrel did anything to her again, she wouldn't be polite.
With a trump card, the plump girl's spirits improved.
However, a gust of cool wind blew, like a basin of cold water extinguishing all her good moods, making her shiver.
Tonight would be difficult.
Just as Tao Lengshuang had thought, the weather was already a bit cold. Sleeping on such a bed without a quilt, only simple outer clothes, she couldn't keep warm all night.
After barely enduring until dawn, she scrambled up and boiled hot water to wash.
She was grateful for her plump body, otherwise, she would have frozen to death last night.
After washing up, she started making breakfast, planning to take Xiao Feng to wander in the mountains later and find an opportunity to take out the cordyceps from her spatial dimension.
While making breakfast, she suddenly sensed a chilling aura and her body stiffened. However, she pursed her lips and pretended not to notice Mo Lingxi entering, continuing with her work.
Mo Lingxi didn't even spare her a glance. After washing up in the kitchen, he went out.
Afterward, Xiao Feng came into the kitchen, rubbing his eyes, and said, "Mommy, Daddy said he's busy today and might not be back until evening."
