Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

Several powerful women immediately stepped forward and grabbed Qi Xiuwei's arms from left to right.

Mrs. Yu was so frightened that she couldn't help but cry: "Mother, don't hit Wei'er. My daughter-in-law will kowtow to her mother and admit her mistake on her behalf!"

She protected her daughter, and Qi Xiuwei hugged her mother.

The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried loudly.

"Stop!" Just at this moment, Mr. Qi came back. He suddenly opened the door and saw this chaotic scene, frowning and scolding.

When the women saw him, they retreated with restraint.

Master Qi didn't need to ask. He saw this situation and knew what happened.

"Mom, Weier is going to Pingyuan Village soon. Why do you need to be violent at this time? If she does something bad, I will discipline her for mother when she comes back."

"Look at your good wife and daughter! You dare to yell at me before I die. If I die, Qi Mansion's foundation will be destroyed just by relying on you!"

Mrs. Qi hit the ground twice with her crutch angrily.

Then, she stood up and let her mother-in-law help her leave.

Mr. Qi bent down, lowered his voice, and said quickly to Qi Xiuwei: "This time, listen to your father and go to Pingyuan Village. It will take several days to calm down at your grandmother's place. Just hide and be quiet when you go out. .”

After saying that, Master Qi hurried out and followed in the footsteps of Old Madam Qi.

"My Wei'er..." They all left, and Yu finally dared to cry and hugged Qi Xiuwei's thin shoulders tightly.

Yushi blamed herself countless times, but it was all to no avail.

She comes from a small family and is the daughter-in-law personally selected by Mrs. Qi.

At the beginning, I thought she was beautiful and healthy, so she would be easy to give birth to. Plus, she was from a low background and easy to control.

Only Mrs. Qi allowed her to enter.

Unexpectedly, she only had one daughter left in these years, and because of her weak temperament, she could not protect the child.

Qi Xiuwei raised her hand and wiped away the tears on her mother's cheek.

"Mom, believe me. Sooner or later, I will take you out of this abyss. At that time, we will have a small family of our own, and I will have a husband who loves me. We will take care of you together and live peacefully. Happy and contented.”

She hugged her mother and imagined the days after marrying Pei Yin, using this to increase her hope.

However, considering Pei Yin's family background, can she really marry him as she wishes?

Even if Pei Yin is willing and she is willing, is it really that easy to leave the Qi family?

On the other side, Mr. Qi has already sent Mrs. Qi back to the house.

"This daughter of yours is completely useless. It would be better if you had more concubines and more children, which would be more reliable than your current wife and daughter!" Mrs. Qi was still angry, her face livid.

Master Qi's eyes flashed with a hint of darkness.

He slapped Mrs. Qi on the shoulder: "Mom, calm down. I already have two concubines in my yard, but my wife is considerate and Wei'er is quite sensible. Now is a critical period in my career."

"My Lord Shangshu Ling is devoted to his wife. As his subordinate, I naturally can't be known as a playboy. Mother, don't be angry. Wei'er will teach her well and she will become more sensible."

Mrs. Qi snorted coldly, obviously not agreeing with his words.

She asked: "Last time I asked you to try to write letters to your sister Jingchun, I sent eight or nine letters, but she didn't reply to any of them?"

Lord Qi lowered his head and sighed.

Mrs. Qi's eyes were cold and full of ruthlessness.

"She is so cruel. Her mother-in-law will not want her even if she says she doesn't want it? I don't believe it. She can live a better life on her own in the palace."

"We are still holding a handle on her. She should be very excited when the King of Shu returns to the capital, right? Find an opportunity to coerce and induce her, and let her know that we are grasshoppers tied to a rope. If Qi Mansion is not good, she will It’s not going to get better!”

Mr. Qi pursed his lips and cupped his hands: "I understand, I will listen to my mother in everything."

Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei came to Pingyuan Village with a large number of guards.

As soon as she arrived here, the little girl was dazzled by the wealth that came to her.

The village is built like a small town!

As soon as you enter the village entrance, you can see various village houses, which are no less impressive than the mansions in Beijing.

There are black tiles and white walls, small bridges and flowing water. Some houses even have concierges and housekeepers who hide behind the doors and poke their heads around.

Not far away is the rice field, the water wheel splashes crystal water drops, and a little shepherd boy drives a buffalo, making a "ho" sound from his mouth.

Mo Lingwei's face became darker and darker as he watched it from beginning to end.

Wang Youfu, the head of Pingyuan Village, came running to greet him with a big belly.

Behind him were some well-established rich farmers in the village.

"Your Highness the Prince, Your Highness the Princess, I've been looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally I've got you here!" Village Chief Wang was about to cry.

Mo Lingwei ignored him and just took out the emperor's memorial and studied it with Shen Ningning.

"In the memorial, local officials said that after Pingyuan Village was infested by locusts, the land became barren. Not only was there no harvest, but crops and fruit trees were left bare. The people here were in dire straits, and the villagers even wanted to commit suicide by jumping into the river."

After Mo Lingwei finished speaking, he raised his head and looked around, his dark eyebrows lowered.

"There are fruit trees everywhere. Where did the ruin come from? The patrolling officials actually lied about government affairs!"

Shen Ningning nodded: "It does look very rich."

It didn't even look like it was affected by locusts.

Village Chief Wang turned pale with fright, knelt on the ground and waved his hands repeatedly.

"Your Highness, Prince, please calm down, Your Highness. The patrolling officials are not talking nonsense. This is the west side of the village. At that time, locusts flew in from the east. Most of the crops planted there have been eaten up."

"And the reason why this place is so well protected is because we later imitated the princess' method of getting rid of locusts, burning and barbecuing it."

After Village Chief Wang finished speaking, Mo Lingwei said coldly: "Lead the way."

The two followed Village Chief Wang through the village and reached the east side of the village.

After going up a slope, I looked around, and sure enough, it was a mess!

What was supposed to be a field of immature wheat turned into a bare patch, like weeds, with gray dead branches all over the ground.

When Village Chief Wang saw this scene, he couldn't help but wipe his tears again.

"Your Highness the Prince, Your Highness the Princess, you see, the common people don't dare to lie. These locusts are killing people, and they come from the east. We all suspect that it is the monster in the mountains to the east who is causing trouble."

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes: "Are there monsters in this world?"

"Yes! Of course there is!" Village Chief Wang nodded repeatedly: "Every three to four days, there will be a cry that sounds like a beast but not like a beast. The sound is dull, sometimes like a cow, but also like a dragon. .”

Mo Lingwei narrowed his eyes: "If you go in and take a look, you'll know what it is?"

Village Chief Wang's expression changed and he waved his hands quickly: "Hey, hey, hey! Don't dare, don't dare. We also have bold villagers who followed the sound and wanted to see what it was. Unexpectedly, after they went there, they all fainted in the mountains. When he was carried out, he still smelled of burning!"

Since then, there have been more and more rumors about monsters in Dongshan, and the villagers in Pingyuan Village are afraid to go in.

Even the nearby Orion woodcutter would rather go around the mountain than go up the east mountain.

Shen Ningning was a little excited after hearing this.

The roar sounds like a cow and a dragon. Could it be a tiger or a lion? What a cuter little animal!

She whispered to Mo Lingwei: "Brother, take some time tomorrow and let's go in and take a look."

Mo Lingwei nodded, his thin eyes filled with the arrogance of a young man.

Even if Shen Ningning didn't say anything, he still wanted to see what was going on.

"Let's live here first. My father thought that by throwing me here, I could have a hard time training." At this point, Mo Lingwei's thin lips revealed a mocking and arrogant arc.

The emperor must have never imagined that the living conditions in Pingyuan Village were far better than they expected.

Shen Ningning suddenly remembered and asked Village Chief Wang.

"Village Chief, I heard that someone in your village couldn't bear the blow and jumped into the river. Was he rescued?"

Village Chief Wang felt a little embarrassed when he mentioned this matter.

"That person is a common man. I'm really sorry, Your Highness. The common man needs to clarify this matter. It was indeed a misunderstanding by the inspection officials. At that time, the common man accidentally slipped and fell into the river. He did not intend to commit suicide..."

Shen Ningning was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then she covered her mouth with her little hand and couldn't help laughing.

Village Chief Wang looked embarrassed and apologized.

When Mo Lingwei saw Shen Ningning smiling, he also gave him a good look.

At noon, Village Chief Wang hosted them for a meal at his home, with the village women who were good at cooking serving the dishes.

The first thing that came up was a bowl of boiled eggs with the shells peeled off.

Mo Lingwei stared at the egg for a while, then he looked at Shen Ningning and smiled: "I remember when we first met, there were some little idiots who even ate the eggshells."

Shen Ningning picked up an egg naturally.

She blinked her beautiful eyes and said seriously: "If you didn't mention it, I almost forgot that there are some bad guys who say they want to kill me as soon as they see me."

Mo Lingwei's expression suddenly froze. (End of chapter)
