Chapter 548: Hidden Killing Intent (7)_1
Upon hearing this, Mo Yan’s face revealed a trace of a peculiar smile, "So it’s set for today, a good day indeed." So good that she had almost forgotten about it.
The villager didn’t notice Mo Yan’s strangeness and thought she genuinely felt happy for Lao Mo’s House, which was odd. Hadn’t the two families cut ties and ceased all contact a long time ago? Could it be that the wealthy really thought differently from ordinary people?
Thinking this, the villager shook his head. Why bother with such thoughts? Better to just focus on working hard and earning the thirty wen for the day’s labor.
It was the start of the workday, and as there wasn’t much to do yet at the construction site, Mo Yan watched for a while before returning home to prepare lunch with Lixiu, Wu’s, and two village women who had been hired to help with the Mo Family’s house construction last year. Feeding over a hundred people from the two work sites was no easy task.
While washing vegetables, Wu’s also mentioned Mo Yongxi’s marriage, "She really is lucky, marrying into a wealthy city family as the main wife. If she’s willing to change her ways and live peacefully, her latter half of life should be settled."
A cold smile appeared on Mo Yan’s lips as she shook her head and said, "It’s easier to change rivers and mountains than to alter one’s nature, and with her temperament, I fear she cannot change. If she had found someone of equal status, they might tolerate her behavior, but now that she’s clinging to such a high branch, she will suffer in the future."
Upon hearing this, Wu’s, looking puzzled, asked, "You say the Fang Family isn’t short of money, so it wouldn’t be tough to find a match of equal status or even one slightly less suitable. Why set their sights on Mo Yongxi, of all people?"
