Not long after Madame Li was sent back, the villagers were displeased with her and threw her onto the bed. When they saw that Su Qing and her daughter had returned, they said their goodbyes and left. Su Qing thanked them one by one. Only after a while did she send them off.
The blood on the ground was still there. Su Qing went to the entrance and dug up some dirt. She covered up the blood and cleaned it up. It was already completely dark.
Madame Li laid on her bed, not daring to make a sound, afraid that she would be targeted by that baleful god, Mu Yunyao.
Seeing that Su Qing was about to go to the kitchen to cook, Mu Yunyao stretched out her hand and stopped her. She looked eagerly at her, "Mother, why have you been ignoring me? Are you angry with me?"
Su Qing glanced at her as tears welled in her eyes, "Yao'er, tell me honestly, were the events of the night before yesterday related to you? Also, there was such a big commotion, why didn't I wake up? When I first slept in the main house, why did I wake up in the east house? "
Hearing that she wasn't asking about the cause of death of Ding Shan, Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief. She promptly blinked her clear eyes, and her eyes were filled with innocence, "Mother, I went up the mountain to help Grandmother gather the herbs. Seeing that you've been sleeping soundly these past two days, I only found a few medicinal ingredients that can calm your mind, and I don't know why such a terrible thing happened to me. Mother, it's a good thing that we're all fine, so you don't have to worry about falling into the Zhang Residence anymore, it's truly a blessing from the heavens. Tonight, I want to burn incense for the heavens and thank the heavens for protecting mother! "
Su Qing was naturally unsatisfied with the perfunctory response, but when she straightened her face and saw Mu Yunyao's watery eyes, she could not harden her heart at all, "Alright, let mother burn some incense."
Mu Yunyao nodded with a smile. She hugged Su Qing's waist and rubbed against her chest, feeling satisfied in her heart. She should thank the heavens for giving her a chance to start over.
Su Qing made some food. Seeing Lady Li who dared not make a sound on the bed, she couldn't help but feel troubled. In the end, she still scooped a bowl and placed it on the brick bed for her.
Madame Li trembled as she looked at Mu Yunyao. Seeing that she had yet to make a sound, she endured the pain and reached for her chopsticks.
Mu Yunyao glanced at her, but didn't say anything due to Su Qing's presence. After dinner, Su Qing went to wash the dishes while Mu Yunyao walked over to the side of the brick bed.
"You … If you don't come over, what are you going to do? " Lady Li was so frightened that her heart was about to burst. She dragged her body inside, causing her to grimace in pain.
Mu Yunyao expressionlessly lifted Madame Li's pillow, lifted a wooden board from the brick bed, and took out the silver from within.
Madame Li's eyes were filled with unwillingness, "That is my silver …"
"Your silver?" "There are a total of 70 taels of silver inside, of which 50 are for my mother and me, 5 for you to steal from my family's wardrobe, and the remaining 15 for you to steal from my parents over the years. Tell me, did you earn a copper coin by yourself?"
Madame Li didn't dare to make a sound, but her heart was bleeding. This silver was half of her life!
When Su Qing entered and saw the silver taels in Mu Yunyao's hands, she exclaimed, "Yao`er, where did all this silver come from?"
"Grandmother saved it for us to chew on. Mother, do you like to go down to the Weir Village? "
Hearing that the money was saved by the Li family, Su Qing also guessed that it was because of the so-called wedding ceremony given by the rich and powerful Zhang. She suddenly lost all interest in asking, "After living here for so many years, I naturally like it."
"I remember when my father taught me to read, he recited a poem: Sunrise River flowers red like fire, spring water green like blue. "He's talking about the scenery of Jiangnan. My mother even said that it would be better if we went to see him if there was a chance. What do you think about our trip to Jiangnan?"
Su Qing thought that she was dreaming and couldn't help but laugh as she rubbed her head. "Fine, wherever Yao'er likes, we will go. Mom will like your place anyways."
Mu Yunyao jumped down from her chair. "Alright, mother agreed. I'll think of a way to earn some silver now and bring mother to enjoy the scenery in Jiangnan!"
"You, be careful. You're still wounded, don't you dare hit me."
"Got it." Mu Yunyao held the silver in her hand, the light in her eyes gradually becoming firmer.
From the moment she had planned to kill Zhang Yongan, she had already planned to leave Weir Village. Although she remembered that the Su Clan would only come to pick her and her mother up after a year and a half, according to the way the Su Clan acted, no one could be sure if they had already known about their mother's identity, and just did not come to pick her up.
In this life, she was going to contend with the Su Family and make the Su Family pay the price. Just with her and her mother alone, she would not be able to accomplish anything, so she was going to find another way to accumulate enough capital to contend with the Su Family before they came to pick them up, and such an accumulation was not something that could be done in a small mountain village like the Weir Village. She was going to choose a bigger springboard.
The journey to Jiangnan was a long one, and one had to have the ability to handle the situation. The amount of silver in his possession was far from enough, "It's not hard to earn money, but how should I explain it to mother?"
After resting at home for half a month, the wounds on the back of his head and arms had already scabbed over, and his hands had regained their whiteness and softness. Mu Yunyao rested her chin on her hands as she looked towards the courtyard, but still couldn't find a suitable excuse.
"Yao'er." Su Qing brought a bowl of red date congee over. "Hurry and drink it while it's hot."
"Mother, I've pretty much recovered from my injuries. As soon as winter comes, your health will not be good. It's better for you to drink."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Mom's been like this for a long time, every year is the same. Drink quickly! Don't tell me you want Mom to feed you?"
"Sure." Mu Yunyao giggled as she raised her head. She looked eagerly at Su Qing and opened her mouth, "Mother, feed me, ah …"
Su Qing's heart was burning and her eyes reddened, "Alright, mother, come feed me." She almost lost the child.
"Mother." Mu Yunyao caressed her face as a huge wave of guilt welled up in her heart, "Mother, that day I was knocked unconscious by Grandmother, and I had a long dream. "In the dream, mother entered the Zhang residence and tortured me to death. I lost my leg too..."
Mu Yunyao told Su Qing a few things she could say and picked at them. Mu Yunyao looked at Su Qing nervously, her heart clenching. Did her mother think that she was a monster? How could she be afraid?
"Yao'er, my Yao'er has suffered." Although Mu Yunyao had already tried her best to pick them out, Su Qing still couldn't stop her tears from falling. Broken leg, Su Family, Duke's Mansion …. It sounded like an unattainable dream. Yao'er, who had no one to rely on, would have to suffer a lot in order to survive in those places.
"Don't mother think I'm strange?"
"Why would Yao'er be surprised? You are a child blessed by the heavens. Back then, when your mother was pregnant with you for seven months, you didn't even cry when you were born. The villagers all said that you wouldn't be able to live, but you actually managed to survive with such a beautiful face. This time, it is the heavens that have favored you, foretelling danger for you in advance. "
Mu Yunyao leaped into Su Qing's embrace and quietly wiped away her tears. "Mother, you're so nice."
Mu Yunyao felt a lot more relaxed after she had said her biggest thoughts. After a good night's sleep, she got up early and pulled Su Qing out of the room.
