" NOOOOOOOOO!"
A mournful scream rang in the house of the Mo family causing everyone to be startled. Yin Fu and the other mers jumped when they heard Mo Qiang scream before they turned to look at Mo Xifeng who was frowning at the wall opposite her.
"Sister-in-law," Yin Fu who finally summoned his courage to speak to Mo Xifeng opened his mouth and then asked in a soft voice, " What happened to wife? Do you have any idea?"
He was worried that Mo Qiang will hear him talk with Mo Xifeng which was why he lowered his voice. Yin Fu had no idea why Mo Xifeng left him alone without slapping or trash-talking about him or his family for not teaching him good manners but he had heard a proverb from his daddy who once told him that a tail of a dog remains bent all his life no matter how much they try to straighten it up.
There was no way a woman who was hitting and using abusive words would change so easily!
" I don't know, Brother Fu," said Mo Xifeng as she turned to look at her brother-in-law who was standing in front of him and smiled at him delicately. " You don't need to worry about anything, if sister tries anything then you can call me... I will come to your aide as soon as I can ."
" I...I know sister-in-law," Yin Fu lowered his head as he tried his best to fight the blush off his face. His sister-in-law was the sweetest and gentlest woman, it would have been so good if she was the one who married him and became his wife instead of Mo Qiang!
" Then I will be going, if my sister acts up again, remember to call me," Mo Xifeng was worried that her sister was only suppressing herself and that once she leaves her brothers-in-law, her sister will come to hurt them again.
" Of course, we will, thank you for looking out for us, Sister-in-law." Yin Fu smiled at Mo Xifeng before sending her out of the room, he wished he could stay with her just a bit longer but he did not want to push his luck, he might have escaped getting hit just now but if his wife was to get angry at him then who knows how she will beat him up.
Mo Xifeng left the room giving one last smile to her brothers in law and just as the door closed behind her, the smiles on the three mers' faces dropped as they all turned to look at each other.
" What do you think happened? She knew that I broke my leg deliberately but she still did not hit me, instead, she even apologised to me!" Shao Hui was really worried that Mo Qiang was planning something sinister. Last night even though their scuffle was loud, and Shao Hui was able to make his father and mother-in-law believe that he was not in the wrong, he knew that his wife knew that he purposely broke his leg.
" I don't think she is someone who will sit quietly," said Xie Jie who was sitting on the second bed while reading the magazine that was sitting in his lap. " She is someone who hates getting played and last night you played her so bad that she was thrown off on the streets, there is a high chance that we will all suffer real bad in her hands."
" Are you blaming me?" Shao Hui glared at the mer next to him but did not say anything wrong since the latter was older than her and was Mo Qiang's second husband.
Xia Jie raised his head and calmly glanced at Shao Hui with a blank expression as he stated, " I just think that you were too hasty, even if you wish to marry Sister Xifeng, you cannot just make a scene like this, now we all in a mess because of you."
Shao Hui bit his lips as he lowered his head in shame, he knew that he brought a lot of trouble to his brothers but he was just done with Mo Qiang and her abuse which was why he took such a drastic step!
" All right calm down you two," Yin Fu said to the two sharply as he looked at Xie Jie and Shao Hui who was sitting on their bed, his eyes flickered with a glint before he came up with a plan and said, " If she is planning something then we just need to plan ahead of her such that she will not be able to harm us!"
…
What the three mers did not know was that Mo Qiang was at the moment planning nothing, she was instead sitting —— no kneeling in desperation in front of the dressing table with her hands clutching the white chipped paint of the wooden plank.
" Why?" She asked no one in particular. " Why do I look like a typical villain from a D-rated movie?"
Mo Qiang turned to look at Little Jiao who was now sitting at the top of her wardrobe and pointed at her reflection in the mirror as she cried, " Look at this—— blue hair, which is so dark that it almost looks black, green eyes like poison and smile that can make Maleficent look like a dainty little girl! And what is this?" She placed her hand on her chest which was humongous to the point that the dress she was wearing was about to be torn. " Why am I in the body of a woman who looked like she stepped straight out of an adult movie!"
" No wonder they all look at me like that when I smile at them! I look like a typical villain who sucks the blood of young men after seducing them! Fine, you made me a thug! Gave me this stupid task of growing plants but the least you could have done was to give me a beautiful face! Why is it that my sister looks like an angel and I look like the devil?"
Please leave a powerstne and review for the book is participating in wsa!
Mo Qiang was really disappointed on the other hand, Little Jiao had her fingers in her ears with her eyes closed as she ignored the cries of the woman who was blaming her.
" This was the only body available at that moment, there was nothing I could do," Little Jiao who was sitting on top of the cabinet turned and looked at Mo Qiang with a sullen look on her face as she narrowed her eyes and said, " And why are you crying so much? This body type is rather famous among the women of your world right?"
" But…But I am more into shy and innocent type," Mo Qiang complained as she looked down at her rather voluptuous figure. " You have no idea but it's really hard for women like me, do you even know how heavy these are on our waists? I wanted to be a slim one in my next time life."
To think she will have to withstand the same pain ricocheting in her lower body all over again. Mo Qiang was not looking forward to that at all.
" Wouldn't it be easier for you to reel in mer with this body?"Little Jiao questioned and that only made Mo Qiang narrow her eyes and glare at the annoying little thing. " Are you being serious? Do you not see what kind of this woman was? It will be a surprise if I can even seduce an idiot with this woman's personality!" Her exclamation made Little Jiao nod her furry head as her head as she said,
" You are right about that, you are so unwanted that even if you take your clothes off no one would want you."
"Let's make sure that we don't have to fall to that point," muttered Mo Qiang as she pushed herself off the floor on which she was sitting down and then started to take the obnoxious portraits of the young mer with whom this woman was once obsessed with since she was not here to think about romance, she might as well take these things down.
" Oh, are you taking them down?" Little Jiao spread her wings and then flew down the cabinet as she sat down on Mo Qiang's head and then said, " Do you really have to? He looks rather fine."
" I will start having nightmares if I continue looking at his face day and night," Mo Qiang remarked as she tore another portrait down and then threw it in the trash can. Since this body was hers now, then she was going to live this life according to her wishes.
It took a long time to take down the portraits before Mo Qiang could sit down and talk properly with Little Jiao, with her legs crossed Mo Qiang looked at the floating blue screen that only she could see and then stared at the number of skills that she had at the moment.
[ Green fingers—— can grow any crop.
Current level 1, fulfil the first mission for advancing to the next level.]
[ Summoning spirits—— raise the favourability of Mo Xifeng by eight points.
Required fp for summoning = 10
Current fp= 2 .]
[ Poetry formations.]
[ Love ballad singing ]
Mo Qiang's brows twitched as she looked at the last two skills and then turned to look at Little Jiao and asked, " What is this?"
" We fairies of nature like to hear songs and poems," replied the little squirrel as she sat in Mo Qiang's lap. " This will help you in the progression of your mission. You might not believe it but there was once a princess who had an entire forest on the tips of her fingers just because she could sing in a beautiful voice."
Mo Qiang had no interest in singing love ballads for animals and crops like some princess which was why she skipped reading the entire thing and then dropped her gaze to the mission that was in front of her.
[ Mission first plant at least fifty maple trees and oak trees—— raise the level of oxygen.]
"Are you kidding me? You want me to plant fifty maple trees and oak trees, that's like hundred trees! How long do you think it's going to take and that too without any fertile soil or tools?" Mo Qiang looked at the tiny spirit that was sitting on her lap, this thing was seriously dreaming if she thought that she could fulfil this mission.
Her feet will be dangling in the grave by the time she will be done with this mission!
" You will be fine, there is no time limit you can take your precious time and did you forget? You have your green fingers with you, as long as you irrigate a land with your hands and sow the seeds after washing it with water that is touched by your fingers, you will be fine. The only downside is that you will have to advance to the next level and raise your current level of the green fingers to plant more complicated trees."
" And where do you think I will find the seeds of these trees? Maybe you missed the memo my dear fairy, this place is completely infertile and there is no sunlight, I bet there is not even clean water." Mo Qiang spat through gritted teeth.
" You do not need to worry about that with my powers there is no need for sunlight… and you can purify a limited amount of water as well… as for the seeds … I am sure you will think of something." Little Jiao tried to scramble off Mo Qiang's lap after speaking but the latter was quicker than she was, Mo Qiang stretched her hand and then clenched her fingers around the small squirrel before grinding out,
" Listen here you little sh*t," she sneered down at the small squirrel. " If you think I am going to work like your slave then you are very wrong, I want something in return as well. You cannot just dump a task of making an omelette on my head without a chicken in sight and then scamper away."
