The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family

Listening to Qian Wanxiu and the others outside demanding a person, Mo Heng opened his eyes, glanced at the person who was still snoring in his arms, tucked the quilt in, but did not move.

Feng Wei was guarding the door; they wouldn’t let them make a fuss to get in.

Pei Qian, already dressed, went to the front door and taunted Qian Wanxiu and Pei Zongli, "You hide the person away yourself, fearing the Government Office’s summons, worried they might reveal who was responsible for Pei Wenjie’s death, so you dare not let him appear and hide him away.
