Chapter 461: Why Was The Whole World Fighting Him For His Wife? (2/2)

“I understand. I’ll make a trip there with you when we have time, but probably not now. The earliest will probably be in spring next year.”

Mo Beihan pursed his lips. He was rather disappointed that he could not spend some time alone with his wife sooner.

Meanwhile, in the Mo house, Jiang Yingqiu had eaten her breakfast and after some preparations, she gave the children detailed instructions and left the house.

She did not go far. There was a sheltered corner outside her house not far from her courtyard door. It was just the right spot for sunning herself, out of the winter winds.

Jiang Yingqiu opened her courtyard door and deliberately allowed others to see what was going on in the courtyard.

News of what happened in the Mo house yesterday had already spread throughout the Southern Lake Brigade and the Qing River Brigade. As a result, all the women who had nothing better to do at the end of the year were buzzing with gossip. They longed to know what the Mo family would do.

Life in the village was hard. Many people could barely support their own children. In the past, the Mo family only had two children, which was not too many.

The problem was that these two children were orphans but were not Mo Beihan’s children, only his nephews.

Life was hard and no one was willing to take on other burdens, especially with Jiang Yingqiu also in poor health.

Many people were waiting for Mo Chengrui to grow up a little over the next two years and, hopefully, set up his own household apart from Mo Beihan.

It was a surprise for them when he had gotten engaged to Gu Qingyao so quickly. Because of what had happened with Gu Ruoqing, everyone had been extremely envious of Gu Qingyao, who would marry Mo Beihan and move to the city to live in the future.

But now four more children had joined the Mo family. Everyone thought it was a big joke.

They subconsciously took great pleasure in her plight.

Now Gu Qingyao would certainly have to stay home and work like a maid.

Six children and a sickly mother-in-law. No matter how capable Mo Beihan was, he could not possibly support them.
