Chapter 479: The Child’s Mother Gets Married (6)_1
When the door opened, and she saw the limping figure of Zhang Gengshan, Sun Xiujin immediately thought of that exceptional silhouette dressed in dark colors, with the figure of an ape and the waist of a wasp—the limping man had followed him. A surge of jealousy sprouted in her heart. Could it be that Pei Qin, seeing no hope with Young Master Shen, had seduced another man? But just by looking at that man’s silhouette, one could tell he was no ordinary person—he could even attract Pei Qin, blind as he was!
Later in the afternoon, after taking a nap, Pei Qin went to find Sun Quanliang, ready to dig up sweet potatoes, and along the way, she hired some villagers to help.
The lands near Bear River were all quite fertile, well-maintained with top-quality soil. Sweet potatoes planted there could yield as much as three thousand catties per acre.
Pei Yuan felt something was off, her period had come, but it seemed that her elder sister’s... had not arrived yet! Even if her cycle was irregular, it shouldn’t be that different, should it?
Caught up in harvesting sweet potatoes, she hardly had time to dwell on it.
After being busy for three or four days gathering the sweet potatoes, Pei Qin immersed herself in the workshop, pondering over the processing of the crop. Selling the sweet potatoes raw wouldn’t fetch much, but they’d be much more valuable once processed.
Just as Pei Yuan was discussing their elder sister’s delayed period with Pei Qian, Zhang Gengshan came over to call them, saying that Mo Heng was looking for them.
The two of them came over, puzzled, and saw that Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin were also present, "Didn’t you go to school?"
"We did. We were called back," said Pei Wendong, indicating that Teacher Mo had something to discuss.
Mo Heng was still dressed in his dark-colored robe embroidered with subtle patterns. However, his exquisite and flawless face still bore some purplish bruises, and his lips had two scabbed over areas, as if he had been struck. But with Feng Wei’s martial arts prowess, who could possibly beat him to such a state with Feng Wei around?
Just as the thought arose in everyone’s minds, Mo Heng confirmed it for them, "It was Pei Qin who hit me."
