Farm Girl's Manor

Liu Yang Village had over a hundred households, with the majority being newcomers who had arrived just last year. After a year of getting acquainted and smoothing out relations, only about thirty to forty households had either become friendly or were related to the Mo Family. So for New Year’s greetings, they only needed to visit these few dozen homes, rather than every single household.

However, now, having only visited seven or eight homes, Zhenzhen adamantly refused to pay respects to another family.

"Dad, big sister, as long as Auntie comes along, Zhenzhen won’t go for New Year’s greetings, it’s simply too embarrassing!" Zhenzhen fumed, glaring at Mo Yongxi, who was cracking sunflower seeds with gusto, and stood there refusing to move another step.

Before the New Year’s visits, big sister had reminded everyone that most families in the village were struggling to get by, and likely couldn’t afford to offer snacks to their guests, let alone their own children. If they were offered food, they should just accept a little, for good luck. But this woman, as if she hadn’t heard a word, would stuff her pockets full of peanuts and seeds from the table as soon as she walked in, completely disregarding others’ feelings. With such thick skin, he felt ashamed himself.

"Embarrassing? You little rascal, say that one more time!" Mo Yongxi lost her temper, spat out a sunflower seed shell with a "ptui," and charged forward, raising her hand to slap Zhenzhen.

Zhenzhen deftly twisted her small body to avoid the fierce slap and hid behind Mo Yan, peeking out her little head to shout, "Men and women shouldn’t touch each other, you shameful woman, it’s no wonder you can’t get married being an old maid!"

"Pfft!" Xin Er, who was nearby, couldn’t hold back her laughter, and when she saw Mo Yongxi glaring furiously at her, she quickly covered her mouth, but her curved eyes and brows couldn’t hide her amusement.
