Chapter 19: Untouchable Untouchable.
Mo Xifeng, however, knew that raising her hand to her sister was a big no-no, not because her sister will fight back but because she knew that Daddy Gui will mess up her entire face up if she was to hit her elder sister.
Even her mother could not touch Mo Qiang much less her! In fact, she was already lucky that Mo Qiang did not tell Daddy Gui about the punch that she received earlier in the town. If Mo Qiang told Daddy Gui about that punch then ——-
Mo Xifeng whose senses were better than others since she was a mecha morph could hear sounds that were more than ten kilometres and right now she could hear the painful screams of her mother as she told Wen Gui to let her off and not hit her with the feather duster and listen to her.
All of this because their mother questioned Mo Qiang, if Wen Gui found that she had hit his precious daughter—— the consequences would be unimaginable.
With that thought in her head, Mo Xifeng raised her head and looked at Mo Qiang with a narrowed look in her eyes, " What are you planning sister?" She did not believe that her sister was going to do anything good after all, her sister had been the same for years.
She promised that she would not gamble but three days later Mo Xifeng had to go to the gambling den and save her sister whose feet and hands were on the verge of getting snapped since she failed to pay the debt that she owed. Back then Mo Xifeng saw her mother take out all the savings that she had to free her sister from the clutches of the gambling den's manager.
After that instead of thanking their mother, Mo Qiang went around and blamed their mother for getting her barred from the gambling den.
And there was this one time when her sister tried to make trouble in the market as well by threatening the shopkeepers to give her groceries for free, in fact, there were so many instances that Mo Xifeng would grow old if she was to start counting them.
" Are you thinking of another quick way to earn money? Did you buy something illegal again? I am telling you that if you do something like that then even Mother and Father will not be able to save your arse." Mo Xifeng's voice was heavy with suspicions as she looked at Mo Qiang who was handing her the hoe.
The last thing she wanted was to get involved in her sister's antics and get carried off to prison.
Mo Qiang tilted her head as she looked at Mo Xifeng who was staring at her with an expression that screamed distrust from every angle. Mo Qiang dropped her hand which was holding the hoe and placed it on the ground as she leaned on the edge of the wooden stick of the hoe.
" I have to say that you are not as reasonable as you seem to be," Mo Qiang sighed as she shook her hand. " You can be as suspicious as you want but I am doing everything in front of you, aren't I? There is no need for you to use that cognitive distortion of yours on me at this moment."
" Cognitive what?" Mo Xifeng frowned upon hearing this new term to which Mo Qiang laughed and then said, " Oh ho ho, it seems that the genius mecha morph does not know something. Cognitive distortion means that you are using your past prejudices against me which is why you think that I am going to do something really wrong."
" I do not understand what it means but sister Qiang, you have to admit that your past records do not speak in support of you, right?" Mo Xifeng questioned back causing Mo Qiang to turn her head to the side as she pursed her lips and swiftly said, " I do admit it but everyone deserves a second chance right? It's not as if I have committed a murder or arson."
Mo Xifeng frowned upon hearing the reply of her sister, since when did she become such a quick talker?
" I will definitely change this place," Mo Xifeng heard her sister say as she turned on her feet and then walked over to the dirty pond that was flowing with red and purple algae and then picked up the bucket that she brought with her before she dunked it in and scooped the water that was not even fit for bathing out. " I will make you all see, that I can also do something…all the things that I have lost, I will bring it all back."
" Even if you don't support me."
' Because only then … only then will be able to enjoy my life as a retired noble!' Mo Qiang thought as she crouched down and turned the green fingers function before placing her hand on the water that was filling the huge bucket.
Mo Qiang expected the water to go slightly clean but then to her surprise, she saw the entire bucket's water getting cleaned in one swift wave of green energy.
' Woah, this is some crazy power, can I use it to clean the entire pond?' Mo Qiang thought as she looked at the clean water in the bucket but then she heard little Jiao reply from the top of her head, " No you can't, your green fingers are still level one, you need to get to level ten to clean a pond this big and then to level twenty for a lake."
" Oh," muttered Mo Qiang as she turned to look at the dry patch of land that was full of cracks and sighed before rubbing her back. It hasn't been more than three minutes since she came here but Mo Qiang could already feel that her back was going to bend by the time, she was done with this patch of land! Ugh, her back.
