As soon as the skinny man woke up, he was pointed at his head and scolded a lot in a daze. He was in a bad mood but he could show it, and he had to nod with a smile on his face.

"Yes, yes, I remember, and I will never do it again next time."

After the old woman walked away, the smile on the skinny man's face disappeared immediately and was replaced by gritted teeth, his hands clenched into fists.

"Pretend to be a dead mother! Isn't it just that I have worked for decades more than me? What is there to pretend? I do the cooking, washing dishes, and sweeping the floor on weekdays. What do you want from me! Give me back my laziness , I don’t think you are the most lazy!”

The skinny man wanted to vent his anger. There were bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen, and he wanted to throw something.

But thinking about the price of these porcelain bowls, and the possibility of more serious consequences, he could only hold back forcibly and vent his anger with the firewood on the side.

Throwing the firewood to the ground fiercely, and then throwing it again and again until all the anger in his heart dissipated, and the thin man stopped his movements.

The anger disappeared, and the thin man's rationality returned.

its not right……

How could he fall asleep?Or just fell asleep on the kitchen floor?
He clearly remembered that after his group of dead children delivered the meal, they returned to the kitchen to eat, and he was energetic at that time.

But not long after returning to the kitchen, I felt very sleepy, and before I could react, my eyes went dark and I fell asleep...

Thinking of this, the skinny man suddenly felt that something was wrong.

I quickly reached out to find the key to the firewood room, put my hand on my chest and felt the bulging piece, and took it out to see that it was indeed the key for the interview.

The skinny man breathed a sigh of relief.

Okay, still there.

However, are the group of children in the firewood room still there?

The skinny man was still suspicious, so he decided to go to the kitchen again to find out.

Those children are worth silver.

If the money is lost, the future life will be porridge with pickles all day long, and there will be no good days.

Anyway, it doesn't take much effort to run.

The skinny man thought in his heart, and his steps were very fast.

When he came to the door of the firewood house, he didn’t hear the voices and footsteps of the children inside. His heart was so nervous that he was about to jump out.

No way……

His hands were shaking while holding the key to open the lock, and he opened the wooden door slightly. After seeing the child lying on the thatch, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"so far so good……"

"Why don't you talk! Everyone is like a dead person!"

The skinny man felt annoyed seeing the group of children lying silently on the ground.

"It's already this time, of course you have to go to bed after eating, how can you talk when you are asleep."

Mu Zhilan half-raised her eyelids, looked at the skinny man at the door and said shamelessly.

It makes sense,

Who can walk and talk while asleep?

It's not sleepwalking and talking in your sleep.

The skinny man was blocked again and couldn't speak. He took a deep breath to calm down the anger in his heart.

Forbearance, he forbearance, as long as he endures today, it will be completely over.

What can she do if she is stubborn?When Ren Yazi buys her tomorrow, he will teach her a lesson.

If you don't teach people to be obedient and obedient, how can you be seen as bought.

After confirming that the group of children were all there, the skinny man stopped talking, turned around and left.

After the skinny man left, the children who were lying on the ground pretending to be asleep left and gathered together again, eyes full of excitement,

"Zhilan, you are amazing!"

"That's right, that's right, you blocked him so much that he didn't dare to speak anymore."

"As long as it was before, whenever he got angry, he would come to us and get angry, and he would scold us for half an hour."

"I didn't say anything."

Mu Zhilan shrugged, she didn't say anything, she was just telling the truth.

"But you are very powerful. If you dare to tell him that, none of us dare."

"He is so fierce, I dare not talk to him."

"We all only dared to listen to him being scolded, and didn't dare to move, let alone refute."

The little girls talked to each other, obviously the days before Mu Zhilan's arrival were in dire straits.

Mu Zhilan listened for a while, and chatted with the girls for a while.

It's getting late.

The little girls will also feel sleepy now,
"Go to sleep, there is still a good show to watch tomorrow."

"Well, we're sleepy too, good night."

"Good night, sleep well."

The little girls encouraged each other, their eyes were full of expectations, and they fell asleep with the joy of tomorrow.

Mu Zhilan also heaved a sigh of relief when the chattering words disappeared from her ears.

She never thought it would be like this when so many people talked together around her ears, the words were all mixed together, and it was impossible to hear who said what.

But the little girls are all fragrant and soft, and they don't smell bad after not taking a bath for a few days. It feels really good to be around her.

"Well……"

Mu Zhilan shook her head, to get rid of the thoughts in her mind, she stretched herself, and the piece lying in her corner also sleepwalked with Duke Zhou.

There will be a good show tomorrow morning, so she must keep up her spirits.

The room fell into silence again. In another corner of the room, Liu Ting was lying there, next to another little boy who was asleep.

Liu Ting stared at the beam with his eyes open, and stared blankly at the straw piled up above, not knowing what he was thinking.

-

When the old woman was no longer in the yard, Mu Zhixu turned around and left quietly.

She is going to the government, and I don't know if Yu Li, the prefect, is you asleep now.

Fortunately, when she went, the government soldiers were about to close the gate, so Mu Zhixu quickened his pace,
"Wait a moment!"

"..."

When the officers and soldiers who closed the door looked up and saw that it was Mu Zhixu, they stopped immediately.

Mu Zhixu would come to the government every day for the past two days, and the magistrate Yu Li's respectful attitude towards Mu Zhixu was even more impressive. The officers and soldiers who opened the door were already acquainted with Mu Zhixu.

"Miss Mu, why are you here at this point?"

"Has your magistrate rested yet? I have something urgent to find him."

Mu Zhixu spoke extremely fast.

"This... I don't know either,"

The officers and soldiers looked puzzled, how could he know if the prefect had a rest when he was a guard at the gate.

"Then can I go in and have a look?"

Mu Zhixu said.

Yu Li had told the officers and soldiers guarding the gate not to stop Mu Zhixu from coming to him if something happened.

The officers and soldiers took a step back respectfully,
"Yes, please."

"Thank you."

Mu Zhixu nodded, quickly walked through the gate and walked into the yard.

In the past two days, every time she and Yu Li met, they were in the study, so Mu Zhixu immediately went to the kitchen to find Yu Li.
