The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 898: Bird Taming (4)

Mo Yan glanced at her and showed her disbelief: "For this reason, Auntie will not let you out."

After being told the truth, Liu Tinglan stuck out her tongue. She did not hold back and told the real reason: "The government held a public trial for the Du family. The Du family and his son were sentenced to fifteen years in prison for three or more crimes. They can no longer come to my house to cause trouble."

Since the old and weak women and children of the Du family were not directly involved in the murder of Lord Hejia, Jingzhao Yin spared no effort and slapped each of them three times as a warning before releasing them in court. No matter how they cried and shouted, wanting to avenge the Du family and his son, wanting to rescue them, no one paid any attention to them.

The Du family and his son were sentenced to such a severe sentence, but Mo Yan did not intervene and deliberately asked Jing Zhaoyin to be punished severely. In fact, the crimes committed by the following people can be serious or minor, usually ranging from five years to several decades. If they are committed in the hands of some powerful people, Even killing him is not impossible.

Although Mo Yan hated the Du family, the things the Du family did were not worthy of death. She severely injured the Du family, father and son, and avenged the Liu family. The fifteen-year prison sentence was sentenced by Jing Zhaoyin according to the law. Mo Yan didn't know whether there was a harsher punishment.

Before the trial, how should the old, weak, women and children of the Du family be dealt with? Jing Zhaoyin actually sent someone to vent his anger on Mo Yan. Mo Yan would not attack the elderly and children. If they were also sentenced to fifteen years, that would be too much. He just said "I won't pursue it".

Without the encouragement of a few gangsters from the Du family, the weak women from the Du family would not dare to go to the Liu family to make trouble. Such a small punishment and a big warning would be the best. As for Du Wencai, Mo Yan had no intention of letting him go.

Without her interference, Du Wencai would be a Jinshi in high school and have a good career in officialdom. Once this kind of villain succeeds, he will not let go of those who have offended him. Not to mention that the Liu family would suffer retaliation from him if they broke off the engagement, and even she might become the target of revenge. Instead of waiting to be bitten by a snake and then beating her to death, it would be better to strike first.

This time, instead of taking his life, he will only lose his reputation and his official career will be completely cut off.

Seeing her friend happy, Mo Yan's mood also improved and she smiled: "This is really good news!"

Liu Tinglan stopped smiling and held Mo Yan's hand tightly: "Yan Yan, thank you. Meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life!"

My friend, without you, my life will be less colorful; without you, the happiness of the rest of my life will be ruined in the hands of that scumbag; without you, how should I face those rumors this time? Rumors, how to keep that period of happiness...

Mo Yan was about to say "nothing", but when she looked up, she saw the sparkle in her friend's eyes. She couldn't help but put down the wooden bucket in her hand, gently wiped away the moisture from the corners of her eyes, and said with a sly smile: "If you really want to thank me, why don't you pledge yourself to me?"

　　　…”

Liu Tinglan’s eyes widened, and her gratitude was so choked in her throat that she couldn’t even utter a single word.

"Hey, I'm just teasing you. Look, I scared you!" Mo Yan patted her dumbfounded friend on the shoulder and laughed loudly: "I'm so willing to give you my life. Brother Shen is so afraid that he fights for me. I have such evil intentions. , not so brave!"

Liu Tinglan blushed, and the gratitude in her heart was instantly replaced by embarrassment. She stretched out her "devil's claws" and pinched Mo Yan's waist hard, and said viciously: "You **** girl, you dare to say anything and let others hear it. Do you still want your reputation?"

Mo Yan broke away and continued teasing while dodging: "For you, what does it matter if my reputation is ruined?"

Liu Tinglan was so angry that she caught up with her skirt: "You, stop right there. If I don't take care of you today, my surname will not be Liu!"

The two started quarreling on the narrow mountain road, with one running in front and the other chasing behind. The sound of laughter frightened countless birds.

Xin'er looked helpless and didn't know if she should step forward to try to make peace, so as not to make others think that the two sisters were unsteady. But after watching and listening to their laughter and thinking about it, I gave up the idea.

Liu Tinglan rested at Mo's house that day. The next day, Mo Yan went to the city to buy fishing nets and sent her back to Liu's house. By the time the fishing net was bought, the six beasts had already caught the birds from the mountains that agreed to the training conditions.

 It’s better to say it’s catching, but it’s better to say it’s cheating. This “liar” is none other than Maomao, a bird belonging to the same family.

“With just a few peaches, we completed the task. Maomao did a good job. I’ll give you two extra peaches every day from now on.” Mo Yan looked at Maomao who ran over to ask for credit, and generously rewarded Maomao with his favorite peach.

 “Chirp, chirp!” Maomao was so happy that she rubbed Mo Yan’s hand affectionately with her sharp beak.

 After feeding Maomao two peaches, Mo Yan went to the breeding area to see the dozen or so birds that had been lured back.

 There are more than a dozen birds of different species, and their sizes are also very different. There are hawks with feather-like wings that can stretch up to ten feet in length, finches smaller than sparrows, wild pigeons that look very similar to homing pigeons, and even a colorful parrot.

Although parrots are very smart and can speak human language and fly fast after being domesticated, their gorgeous feathers are too eye-catching and are not suitable for use as messenger birds.

Originally, Liushou and Maomao didn't intend to have this parrot, but after tasting the delicious and juicy peach and hearing the benefits promised by Maomao, this guy shamelessly wanted to follow him back and couldn't even blast him away.

The Golden Beast thought this guy was suitable as a pet bird, so he persuaded the other five beasts and Mao Mao to bring him back to relieve Mo Yan's boredom.

Mo Yan also thought it would be good to have a parrot. Besides, the parrot was really beautiful. Its big mung bean eyes were moving around, and it looked smart. She took one look at it and fell in love with it.

Xue Tuanzi originally didn’t plan to teach this parrot. In fact, this parrot is like a chatterbox. Even if no one pays attention to it, it can talk to itself. Seeing that Mo Yan liked it, it had no choice but to endure it.
