Chapter 18: I really want to punch her ——2
"Stop scolding my baby," Wen Gui who saw his wife scolding his daughter without giving her a chance to say anything walked out of the small kitchen while wiping his hands on the apron that he was wearing and then walked over to where Mo Qiang was standing and then said sharply to his wife, " Qi Qi, said that she won this thing why won't you believe my baby?"
" Daddy," Mo Qiang was touched when she heard Wen Gui standing up for her, she looked at the protective back of her father and then hugged her daddy's arm and then praised the fatherly mer. " You are the best Daddy!" Then she turned to look at Mo Yan who was looking at her with half suspicion and half anger before she said, " I really won a competition, what, I cannot win one now? Am I that useless in your eyes, General Mo?"
Wen Gui was happy that his baby was acting close to him again, he placed his arm around his daughter's shoulders and then turned to glare at his wife with his other hand on his hip before he said with narrowed eyes, "That's right, is my baby that stupid? Are you mocking your genes or are you mocking mine hmm? My baby might be lazy but she is not an idiot, if she puts her mind to something she can do it much better than others."
"That's right," Mo Qiang chimed along with her daddy who was scolding her mother. " General Mo, I won this prize fair and square, you are wronging me by saying that I am wasting my money!"
' She calls little Gui, daddy but she is calling me, General Mo?' Mo Yan was slightly annoyed when she saw that her eldest daughter was throwing a tantrum at her. Instead of calling her mother, she was using her previous title to address her —— Mo Yan was rather displeased with this development.
But she still did not show it on her face and then said with an annoyed sigh, " I am not wronging you, I am just questioning you which is normal considering your past actions."
" I am a changed woman now," Mo Qiang brazenly spoke to Mo Yan with her eyes staring at her mother. She did not blink her eyes lest the woman in front of her caught something in her expression. " Why is it that you do not question Xifeng regarding anything? Why am I undergoing such an investigation?"
" That's because Xifeng is a genius——"
" Oh, are you saying that just because I am not a genius like my sister, I cannot even win a small competition? Daddy! Look at your wife, she is demoralising me!" Mo Qiang seemed to have understood that the pants were worn by Wen Gui in this family which was why she did not even bother to talk with Mo Yan and just continued to suck up to Wen Gui which did not take a lot since he loved her to the high heavens already.
Sure enough, when Wen Gui heard Mo Qiang's complaints, he patted her on the shoulder and then turned to face his wife like a hungry tiger as he placed his hands on his waist and then with towering rage said, " Mo Yan! Out with it what did you mean by that? You dare demoralise my baby? She is finally getting back on the right track and you dared to question her like she is some sort of criminal? How dare you!"
Mo Qiang cheered her protective daddy but then she thought about something as she rushed to her daddy's side and said, " Time please, Daddy. You can scold Mother later but can you first tell me whether we own any lands that can be used as I wish?"
Wen Gui immediately stopped scolding his wife and then turned to look at Mo Qiang with a sweet smile and then replied, " We are the owners of this star, sweetie. You can use any free land as you wish without any worry."
" Oh, that's wonderful!" Mo Qiang nodded as she turned to look at her mother who was looking at her with awe and blame before she harumphed and then said to Wen Gui, " You can continue with your scolding daddy, I am really hurt by what General Mo said to me just now." As she said this Mo Qiang pulled a heartbroken expression.
Wen Gui, who had never seen such an expression on his daughter's face immediately felt bad, his heart twisted as he picked up the feather duster on the kitchen counter and then turned to look at his wife like he was wielding a great weapon and then said with a rumbling voice, " How dare you upset my baby?"
….
Mo Qiang cheekily poked out her tongue when she heard her mother trying to coax her daddy. Serves her right for doubting her, thought Mo Qiang as she walked out of the house with the parcel in her hands.
She took ten steps forward but then paused and turned to look at Mo Xifeng who was walking behind her and said, " Why are you following me?"
" What are you planning sister?" Mo Xifeng could no longer understand her sister which scared her a little, in the past at least her sister's actions were rather easy to decipher but now it was different, she couldn't see through Mo Qiang's actions.
Mo Qiang tilted her head to the side before she smiled in a ballsy manner at Mo Xifeng and then said, " Why don't you follow me?"
Mo Xifeng frowned at the smile that Mo Qiang shot her and felt her fingers clenched as she thought, 'I really want to punch her even more than before, why is that?'
…
Though Mo Xifeng was doubtful of what was going on in Mo Qiang's head but she still followed Mo Qiang to a dry and crack-filled piece of land that did not belong to anyone and then waited for her sister to do what she was going to do but to her surprise ——
Her sister pulled an old-looking hoe which was kept in their store room and then threw it at Mo Xifeng before saying, " Start digging with me."
Mo Xifeng: "…." ???? I really want to punch her, what to do? Waiting for answers online.
Chapter 19: Untouchable Untouchable.
Mo Xifeng, however, knew that raising her hand to her sister was a big no-no, not because her sister will fight back but because she knew that Daddy Gui will mess up her entire face up if she was to hit her elder sister.
Even her mother could not touch Mo Qiang much less her! In fact, she was already lucky that Mo Qiang did not tell Daddy Gui about the punch that she received earlier in the town. If Mo Qiang told Daddy Gui about that punch then ——-
Mo Xifeng whose senses were better than others since she was a mecha morph could hear sounds that were more than ten kilometres and right now she could hear the painful screams of her mother as she told Wen Gui to let her off and not hit her with the feather duster and listen to her.
All of this because their mother questioned Mo Qiang, if Wen Gui found that she had hit his precious daughter—— the consequences would be unimaginable.
With that thought in her head, Mo Xifeng raised her head and looked at Mo Qiang with a narrowed look in her eyes, " What are you planning sister?" She did not believe that her sister was going to do anything good after all, her sister had been the same for years.
She promised that she would not gamble but three days later Mo Xifeng had to go to the gambling den and save her sister whose feet and hands were on the verge of getting snapped since she failed to pay the debt that she owed. Back then Mo Xifeng saw her mother take out all the savings that she had to free her sister from the clutches of the gambling den's manager.
After that instead of thanking their mother, Mo Qiang went around and blamed their mother for getting her barred from the gambling den.
And there was this one time when her sister tried to make trouble in the market as well by threatening the shopkeepers to give her groceries for free, in fact, there were so many instances that Mo Xifeng would grow old if she was to start counting them.
" Are you thinking of another quick way to earn money? Did you buy something illegal again? I am telling you that if you do something like that then even Mother and Father will not be able to save your arse." Mo Xifeng's voice was heavy with suspicions as she looked at Mo Qiang who was handing her the hoe.
The last thing she wanted was to get involved in her sister's antics and get carried off to prison.
Mo Qiang tilted her head as she looked at Mo Xifeng who was staring at her with an expression that screamed distrust from every angle. Mo Qiang dropped her hand which was holding the hoe and placed it on the ground as she leaned on the edge of the wooden stick of the hoe.
" I have to say that you are not as reasonable as you seem to be," Mo Qiang sighed as she shook her hand. " You can be as suspicious as you want but I am doing everything in front of you, aren't I? There is no need for you to use that cognitive distortion of yours on me at this moment."
" Cognitive what?" Mo Xifeng frowned upon hearing this new term to which Mo Qiang laughed and then said, " Oh ho ho, it seems that the genius mecha morph does not know something. Cognitive distortion means that you are using your past prejudices against me which is why you think that I am going to do something really wrong."
" I do not understand what it means but sister Qiang, you have to admit that your past records do not speak in support of you, right?" Mo Xifeng questioned back causing Mo Qiang to turn her head to the side as she pursed her lips and swiftly said, " I do admit it but everyone deserves a second chance right? It's not as if I have committed a murder or arson."
Mo Xifeng frowned upon hearing the reply of her sister, since when did she become such a quick talker?
" I will definitely change this place," Mo Xifeng heard her sister say as she turned on her feet and then walked over to the dirty pond that was flowing with red and purple algae and then picked up the bucket that she brought with her before she dunked it in and scooped the water that was not even fit for bathing out. " I will make you all see, that I can also do something…all the things that I have lost, I will bring it all back."
" Even if you don't support me."
' Because only then … only then will be able to enjoy my life as a retired noble!' Mo Qiang thought as she crouched down and turned the green fingers function before placing her hand on the water that was filling the huge bucket.
Mo Qiang expected the water to go slightly clean but then to her surprise, she saw the entire bucket's water getting cleaned in one swift wave of green energy.
' Woah, this is some crazy power, can I use it to clean the entire pond?' Mo Qiang thought as she looked at the clean water in the bucket but then she heard little Jiao reply from the top of her head, " No you can't, your green fingers are still level one, you need to get to level ten to clean a pond this big and then to level twenty for a lake."
" Oh," muttered Mo Qiang as she turned to look at the dry patch of land that was full of cracks and sighed before rubbing her back. It hasn't been more than three minutes since she came here but Mo Qiang could already feel that her back was going to bend by the time, she was done with this patch of land! Ugh, her back.
