Chapter 1072: Confrontation, Zoo

The heavy snow outside the house was rustling, and the two people inside the house were sleeping particularly deeply. When they woke up, it was already the end of Shen Shi.

Mo Yan's face was flushed from sleep, as if she had applied a layer of fine rouge. She got up dizzily and rubbed her swollen forehead with her fingertips. It took her a while to fully wake up.

Looking at Xiao Ruiyuan who had not yet woken up, a smile appeared on Mo Yan's lips unconsciously. She tiptoed to lift the quilt, one foot had already stepped to the edge of the bed, and when she was about to lift the other foot, her wrist was suddenly clamped, and with a yelp of surprise, she was pulled back into the quilt with a strong force. .

"Yan'er, lie with me for a while." Xiao Ruiyuan didn't open his eyes. He was half pressed on Mo Yan's body, his head buried in her neck, his low and hoarse voice added a bit of **** appeal.

Get up, Im dead. Mo Yan was so overwhelmed that she couldnt breathe and said with a look of disgust.

Xiao Ruiyuan felt that the body beneath him was extremely soft, and he couldn't bear to make his beloved woman uncomfortable, so he had to put his arms on the woman's side to support his upper body, staring deeply at the woman's face, as if he could never see enough.

This gesture was too ambiguous, and being looked at so deeply, even Mo Yan, who prided himself on being thick-skinned, couldn't hold it in any longer. A trace of heat quietly swept out from the bottom of his heart, making his already rosy cheeks even more delicate. .

You, get out of the way, I should get up and prepare dinner. Mo Yan swallowed, put her hands on her chest and pushed Xiao Ruiyuans chest. She was afraid that if she continued like this, she would lose control and turn into a pervert and knock people down. In that case, all face will be lost.

Its still early, theres no rush. Xiao Ruiyuan curled his lips and smiled softly, then whispered into Mo Yans ear. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, the voice was a bit lower than usual, leaving no room for resistance.

Upon seeing this, Mo Yan simply gave up her resistance and unconsciously poked the hard chest hanging above with her fingers. As a result, she poked something even harder with the second poke.

She subconsciously reached out and touched something small and square. She couldn't help but ask Xiao Ruiyuan, "What are you hiding here?"

Xiao Ruiyuan was stunned for a moment, then he reached into his clothes and quickly took out a small wooden box. The wooden box is really small, about the size of an egg in a boxy shape.

What can it hold in such a small box? Mo Yan took the small box curiously, really curious about the contents inside.

Xiao Ruiyuan smiled slightly and encouraged: "Open it and take a look."

Hearing this, Mo Yan knew that the things inside were for her. Her eyes were filled with anticipation, and she stretched out her right hand to carefully open the box.

Pair of rings? Mo Yan let out a small exclamation. She really didnt expect that there would be a pair of rings set with rubies in the box.

Do you like it? Xiao Ruiyuan asked softly.

Yeah, I like it. Mo Yan nodded heavily and looked at Xiao Ruiyuan with eyes full of emotion.

In Dachu, rings, especially pairs of rings, are not popular, and they are not a token exchanged between couples when they get married, but there is a touching legend in it.

It is said that thousands of years ago there was a couple who had a deep love for each other. However, in the eyes of outsiders, the husband is not happy at all because his wife is a tigress. The wife not only controls her husband's family business, but also controls her husband very strictly. She does not allow her husband to take concubines, or even look at other women.

Had it been any other man, such a wife would have been divorced long ago. However, the relationship between the couple was extremely good. Later, a woman who envied the wife asked her how she tied her husband. The wife said nothing, but stretched out her right hand with a ring on her ring finger. A gold ring, and on her husband's left ring finger, there was also a gold ring of the same style and material.

People think that the reason why a husband is so kind to his wife is because the wife used the gold ring to trap her husband tightly, so the husband has always been loyal to her and has never betrayed her. Many people are rushing to imitate it, but in the era of male supremacy, almost no man is willing to accept such a ring, because once it is worn, it means that like the legendary husband, he will be controlled by his wife and must not betray.

The authenticity of the legend cannot be tested, but the meaning of the precept has been passed down. The pair of rings in Mo Yan's hands are all of the highest quality in terms of material, workmanship and style. However, what she cares about is not its actual value, but Xiao Ruiyuan's attitude.

In this relationship, he placed her in an equal or even higher position, instead of treating her as a dodder dependent on him.

Seeing the heartfelt smile on the face of his beloved woman, Xiao Ruiyuan also smiled. He took out the smaller ring from the small wooden box and put it on the ring finger of Mo Yan's right hand reverently.

The golden ring was perfectly inlaid with rubies as red as blood, making Mo Yan's delicate white fingers even more beautiful.

Feeling the restraint on her ring finger, Mo Yan felt infinite joy welling up in her heart. She took out another ring from the small wooden box and was about to put it on the ring finger of Xiao Ruiyuan's left hand when she found two words engraved on the inside of the ring. She took a closer look and found that those two words were her name. .

Seeing Mo Yan's surprise, Xiao Ruiyuan curled his lips, rubbed the ring on her ring finger and said, "My name is also here."

Mo Yan's heart suddenly moved, she didn't expect him to come here at all: "This, is this specially made by you?"

Xiao Ruiyuan coughed dryly and seemed a little embarrassed: "The pattern I drew will naturally be unique if I ask the craftsmen in the silver building to make it."

Mo Yan stared at Xiao Ruiyuan's big hands holding the sword and drawing the bow. It was hard to imagine how such hands could create such a pair of unique rings. How much effort and how many times it took to make such a pair of rings. The perfect ring comes.

"What are you looking at? Don't you want to put it on for me?" Seeing the wet redness in Mo Yan's eyes, Xiao Ruiyuan rubbed her head and stretched out his left hand again.

Mo Yan blinked and pushed back the tears in her eyes. Full of piety and emotion, she slowly put the ring on Xiao Ruiyuan's ring finger.

Xiao Ruiyuan took Mo Yan's right hand and put it together with his own. Looking at the exact same ring on his finger, the smile on his face gradually widened. Then he held Mo Yan's face and kissed her soft lips deeply. , did not leave for a long time.

In a world covered with silver, people ushered in the new year.

Looking back on the past year, Liuyang Village has undergone earth-shaking changes. Not only have there been more schools in the village, but more than 20 brick and tile houses have been erected. The atmosphere in the village has improved a lot. People dont pick up things on the street, and at least there are no incidents of theft. The relationship among the villagers has also become harmonious, and they rarely make troubles over trivial matters.

Marriage in the village has also become much easier. Girls dont have to worry about not being able to marry into a good family, and marriageable men dont have to worry about not getting a wife. This winter, the sound of firecrackers over the village has never stopped. Several families were previously too poor to marry. Everyone who has a daughter-in-law has found a daughter-in-law of their choice this winter to celebrate the New Year.

Like previous years, the Mo familys New Years Eve was warm and ordinary. Except for visiting friends families in the village to pay New Year greetings on the first day of the new year, the rest of the time the family stayed at home chatting by the brazier or playing games and guessing lantern riddles.

Because the snow is getting deeper and deeper, it is inconvenient and dangerous to go out. On the day of the Boxing Day gift, the Mo family made an appointment with the Liu family, Han family and other close friends not to visit the house to pay New Year greetings, but to wait for the snow to clear before walking around with each other. Eliminate unnecessary trouble.

Looking at the dark sky through the half-open window, Mo Qingze sighed and said to Mo Yan: "Yesterday I asked Xiao Mo to send a New Year's letter to your Uncle Liu. Your Uncle Liu said that the city collapsed. Many old houses, many people were killed or injured..."

Mo Yan's expression gradually became serious as he listened: "The capital is pretty good. The imperial court has set up a resettlement site to accommodate the people affected by the disaster. Food and medicinal materials are provided every day. But in the local area, I don't know if there are parents and officials who have not followed the instructions of the Holy Spirit." It will be done by the Holy Will.

Corrupt officials do not distinguish between regions, time and space, they will exist at any time. This time, the imperial court allocated funds to local governments to deal with the snow disaster. However, the snow disaster spread too widely, and there must be pockets of pockets. No one knows how many victims have benefited.

Previously, Mo Yan donated 10,000 jins of grain and 5,000 jins of medicinal materials. This amount is neither too much nor too little. It corresponds to her status and is not too conspicuous. Because she was the first person to donate food and medicine, Emperor Hui'an specially praised her in front of all the civil and military officials when he went to court in the morning.

Everyone understands Emperor Hui'an's hint. Donation is also a potential practice after major disasters. Mo Yan's move to take the lead in donating was not resented by anyone. Many officials thought that Mo Yan's move was instructed by Emperor Hui'an or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

After the imperial court came to power, many officials donated food or money. It was enough to resettle the people affected by the disaster within the capital without paying almost a penny from the imperial court.

As for other places outside the capital, it is unclear how local officials will resettle the affected people.

Mo Qingze added two pieces of charcoal to the brazier and said worriedly: "This snowstorm is much more serious than the year before last. If the people affected by the disaster are not properly resettled, there will probably be trouble. When we fled here, Isnt it because some officials withheld the food and silver provided by the government and the Central Government, forcing the severely affected people to survive, and then rebelled? Otherwise, who would do such things as confiscate their homes and exterminate their families?

Mo Qingzes worries are not unfounded. Every time there is a serious natural disaster, there will always be people who gather to make trouble with the government. For example, in the year they fled, the refugees in the south formed a climate of confrontation with the imperial court. Another example was the snowstorm the year before last, when food prices soared. Because the government did not provide timely relief, hungry people rushed to government offices and the homes of wealthy families, smashing and looting, and many innocent people died. .

This snow disaster seems to have no impact on the Mo family, but if the heavy snow continues to fall like this, real man-made disasters will come sooner or later, and the Mo family will not be able to survive alone.

In the past few days, people from several nearby villages have frequently come to Liuyang Village to stay overnight and borrow food. These people do not necessarily have food at home, but they are just worried that they will run out of food and will not be able to survive until the snow stops, so they prepare in advance. It's okay for now, but as time goes by, the food will be used up. Who knows whether those affected by the disaster will take advantage of Liuyang Village?

Liuyang Village is now a fat sheep in the eyes of several other villages, especially the Mo family. I dont know how many people secretly covet it. When it comes to a critical moment of life and death, who cares what your identity is.

This topic is very heavy. Except for brothers and sisters Li Xiu and Yun Zhao, no one else can forget that they have experienced that disaster. The laughter in the room gradually fell silent.

Mo Yan couldn't stand such an atmosphere. Seeing Xin'er's face showing uneasiness, he held her hand and said, "The matter hasn't reached that serious level yet. The sky may clear up in two days. Even if the sky collapses, there will still be a high ceiling." Well, what's the use of worrying so much now, we might as well live this New Year happily."

Mo Qingze also realized that it was not good to say this during the Chinese New Year, so he echoed Mo Yan's words: "That's right. Our family is not short of money and food now. If it comes to that, there will be six beasts here and no one will break in. Lets just close the door and live our lives.

Both his father and sister were so optimistic. Xin'er and the others were finally not so scared. Zhen'er pinched the ears of Mao Tuan who was squatting beside him and said with a smile: "I will give you meat to eat, and you will protect me." OK?"

Maodan shook his furry ears, glanced at Zhen'er with disdain, stood up, walked to the other side of Mo Yan and lay down, and put his paws on Mo Yan's instep. It was obvious who he wanted to protect.

"Ouch - you are such an ignorant white-eyed wolf. I save my pocket money to buy osmanthus candies for you to eat. Is this how you repay me?" Zhen'er let out a heartbroken wail, commemorating the loss. of pocket money.

Maodan rolled his eyelids, and decisively buried his head under his paws, looking like "I didn't hear you", and Zhen'er yelled angrily.

With the two live treasures making such a fuss, the previous gloomy atmosphere was swept away. The next moment, Xiaohua and the others, who brought meat to their friends in the mountains, also came back, and brought back several little beasts that were about to freeze to death. The room instantly became more lively.

Of course, in the eyes of others, the beasts just went for a walk in the mountains and delivered the "food" that was about to overflow in the space to the beasts in the mountains who were almost starving to death. Mo Yan could only do it secretly. But if this continues, my home will turn into a zoo, a zoo full of beasts...
