Xuexue suddenly put down her chopsticks and wanted to get up to intercept her, but Madam Xie grabbed her and shook her head at her.
“Mother, if she takes it away, what will we eat?” Xuexue was furious about Mo Yaner’s actions, yet she was the biological daughter of her foster mother, so she couldn’t do anything excessive to her.
“Forget it, I’ll just go and cook some more for you. After all, don’t we still have pork at home?” It was as if the eldest daughter was under a spell, always siding with the Mo family; Madam Xie appeared helpless.
Fortunately, Xuexue had hidden the pork well, otherwise it would have been completely raided by them today.
“Mother, I think we shouldn’t bother. Big Sister firmly believes that the good things in our home are bought with silver stolen from the Mo family. When she comes back later and sees it, she might just take it to the Mo family again.” Xuexue was troubled. Mo Yaner couldn’t be beaten or scolded, and it was hard to know what to do with her.
“What to do then?”
“Forget it, I’ll go stir-fry some wild vegetables.” Xuexue got up and left, and Big Bull, the tag-along, immediately stood up and followed her.
Xuexue thought to herself that it wasn’t a solution for the people of the Mo family always to covet the good things they earned, as their income grew more and more.
“Big Bull, do you know the way to the Mo family?” Xuexue pulled Big Bull into the kitchen while Madam Xie was not around and asked in a low voice, clenching her teeth.
“I know, Chuner told me about it the other day.”
“Come here.”
Xuexue looked around, then whispered into Big Bull’s ear for a while.
Big Bull nodded continuously while listening: “Uh huh, uh huh, don’t worry, my lady.”
Xuexue turned around and took a package from under the cabinet and placed it in Big Bull’s hands: “Go.”

“Alright!” Big Bull turned and walked out briskly.
By the time Xuexue had finished stir-frying the wild vegetables, Big Bull had already returned. They rejoined Madam Xie at the dining table and had their meal, utterly unaware that he had ever been out.
That night, Mo Yaner never returned to the old residence, likely having gained favor and was kept at the Mo family’s house overnight. Madam Xie waited anxiously at the main entrance, but Mo Yaner did not return, causing her great concern, fearing she might have been harmed by Auntie Sun. In the end, Xuexue firmly dragged her back to their room.
The next day
At noon, Mo Yaner appeared at the entrance of the old residence, walking unsteadily with a pale face.
“Yaner, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?” Madam Xie hurried over to support her, asking worriedly.
“Get lost, don’t pretend to care.” Mo Yaner furiously shook off Madam Xie’s hand, glaring at her fiercely: “I am your biological daughter, how can you be so vile?”
Madam Xie was utterly confused: “Yaner, what’s gotten into you?”
“Still playing dumb? What did you put in last night’s chicken?”
“Chicken? Didn’t you take it away?”
“You knew I was bringing it to the Mo family, did you deliberately put something in it?” Mo Yaner pressed, her eyes intensely focused on Madam Xie, trying to spot a slip-up.
“No, I didn’t?”
Madam Xie looked genuinely baffled, not seeming to lie, and Mo Yaner deflated, gloomily saying, “The people of the Mo family ate it and they all kept running to the outhouse the entire night. They are so exhausted now they can’t even walk, collapsed at home, suffering from dehydration. Luckily, I ate less, so I still have the strength to walk back.”
Last night, Mo Yaner had arrived at the Mo family’s house with a large basin of steaming chicken, delighting them to no end and being welcomed like the God of Wealth.
