Chapter 137 We need to get some security for the family.
The He family sat together, discussing how to scheme against Xia Erge.
The He family thought they were being very secretive, and that no one except themselves knew what they were plotting. In reality...
Xia Mo temporarily attached his spiritual threads to He Hua.
He Hua is the main strategist who plots against Xia Erge. Whenever a bad idea comes up, He Hua will definitely be there, so there's no need to worry about her not having enough time to act.
In Anjia Village, in the Xia family courtyard—
"Second brother, second brother, big news!" Xia Mo rushed toward her second brother, Xia, who was reading in the study.
Xia Erge reluctantly put down his pen, looked at Xia Mo with affection, and said, "Little sister, don't run away, walk slowly, your second brother is right here, I won't run away."
Xia Mo stopped directly outside the study window and looked at Xia Erge.
"Second brother, second brother, He Hua has taken the initiative to divorce her husband, Wang Fa!"
Xia Mo looked at Xia Erge mischievously, waiting for his reaction.
Seeing Xia Erge's surprised expression, she continued to laugh.
"Wang Fa disagreed and wanted to divorce his wife, but she actually agreed!"
Xia Mo's voice wasn't loud, but Xia's father, mother, and older brother, who were busy in the yard and kitchen, all heard it.
After hearing what Xia Mo said, Brother Xia Er quickly understood and his face darkened.
Xia Erge was attracted to He Hua's innocence and naivety, but he never expected that He Hua would be both stupid and vicious!
Xia's father and the others promptly put down what they were doing and gathered around Xia Mo.
As for why Xia Mo knew about this without leaving home, they didn't ask.
Xia's mother urged Xia Mo to speak quickly with her eyes, telling her not to keep them in suspense.
"The He family was discussing in the main room how to cling to Second Brother. He Hua said that she would come to Second Brother despite being covered in bruises from being beaten by her father. She thought that Second Brother would soften and feel sorry for her, and then she would take the opportunity to be affectionate with him. Then, even if they didn't get married, they would still get married," Xia Mo said, spreading her hands with her innocent, clear eyes.
After hearing this, Xia's father and the others turned ashen-faced.
What do the He family think of us?! They broke off the engagement without hesitation, and now that their daughter is married, they want to divorce her and then cling to us!
Xia's mother was so angry that her eyes widened and turned red with rage.
Mr. Xia quickly comforted Mrs. Xia and patted her back to help her catch her breath.
Xia Mo mischievously raised the corners of her mouth and deliberately said, "Is being all lovey-dovey like your parents?"
Xia's father immediately stopped, and Xia's mother forgot her anger and looked at Xia Mo in a panic.
“My dear, you’re not married yet, so you don’t need to know so much. Once you’re married, I’ll tell you everything. Just listen to your parents and don’t let any men get close to you,” Xia’s mother said anxiously as she surrounded Xia Mo.
Xia Mo deliberately acted that way to distract Xia's mother and father, hoping to make them angry and harm their health.
“Oh,” Xia Mo nodded obediently.
Xia's mother breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia's parents had calmed down from their initial anger. Now, when the He family was mentioned again, although they were still angry, they weren't so furious that their eyes turned red and their blood surged.
"Isn't the county examination for our area held in Anning Prefecture? Why don't you let your second brother set off earlier?" Xia's father suggested a solution.
Anyway, since Second Brother Xia is always practicing calligraphy, memorizing texts, and reading in the study, changing the location won't hurt.
“Yes, I think it’s feasible,” Xia’s mother nodded repeatedly.
They thought that with Xia Mo, they could easily take people to Anning Prefecture, which is why they came up with this idea.
Xia Mo frowned. Why should they back down just because the He family wants to scheme against them?!
"Father and Mother, we can avoid it for a while, but not forever," Xia Mo said, puffing out her cheeks in anger. Her adorable appearance immediately melted the hearts of her mother and father, who instantly forgot all about their anger.
"Good girl, don't be angry. This is all your second brother's fault. Your parents will handle it," Xia's mother said, half-embracing Xia Mo and gently comforting her.
The whole family surrounded Xia Mo to comfort her, but Xia Mo herself... she wasn't actually angry; she already had a plan.
If the He family is despicable, then she will use even more despicable means to make the entire He family unable to hold their heads high.
“Father, Mother, I’ve learned that the He family won’t start their operation until tomorrow,” Xia Mo said.
Xia's father and the others nodded and went to attend to their own business.
Brother Xia looked at Xia Mo with a smile in his eyes and affection.
Xia Mo playfully stuck out her tongue and entered the study through the door.
Xia Mo waved to Xia Erge.
Brother Xia immediately went over, bent down, and listened attentively.
After listening, Brother Xia frowned and said, "It's too much trouble for a young lady like you to do it. Why don't you let me do it?"
"Second Brother doesn't object?" Xia Mo's eyes widened in surprise, then her eyebrows curved into a smile.
So it turns out her second brother is cunning too!
"Can't we do what others do on the first day of the month but not on the fifteenth?" Second Brother Xia reached out and gently rubbed Xia Mo's head.
Xia Mo nodded obediently and said, "Actually, Second Brother, I have a special skill. When I do it, it will be more discreet and leave no trace."
Brother Xia still objected, saying, "I can't let your hands get dirty and your eyes get dirty."
"No, I won't look. I'll just use my special abilities," Xia Mo told a small lie.
Xia Erge said, "We'll join forces, but you can't tell our parents and older brother about this. It's a secret between the two of us, okay?"
Xia Erge knew that Xia's father, mother, and eldest brother would definitely not agree to this idea, which is why he made this suggestion.
"Okay," Xia Mo gave a cute but mischievous smile, which cleverly combined with her obedient appearance.
Xia Erge couldn't resist reaching out and rubbing Xia Mo's head again.
"Second brother will work hard!" Second brother Xia said solemnly, staring at Xia Mo.
For Xia Erge, saying this to Xia Mo was like making a vow to the heavens.
“Hmm,” Xia Mo nodded and said, “I’ll ask my master for some brain-boosting pills later.”
Taking the opportunity, Xia Erge tried to reason with Xia Mo, saying, "If you can do it yourself, try not to bother your master. He is our elder, but he is not obligated to do things for us, understand?"
Xia Mo smiled happily, her second brother's thoughts were just right.

That night—
When Xia Mo arrived in Anping County, Huangfu Qian was indeed still at his residence there.
Huangfu Qian met Xia Mo with a blank expression.
"Do you have any seriously injured subordinates? Preferably two women, older ones are fine," Xia Mo said, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Huangfu Qian.
She's leaving home, so she needs to secure some protections for her family.
Huangfu Qian asked, "Is Master Jia still near Anping County?"
"Yes," Xia Mo replied without hesitation, adding casually, "You have another fake fly on your head. Do you need me to help?"
“Yes, let’s destroy it,” Huangfu Qian said.
"It took a lot of effort to blow up the fake flies," Xia Mo chuckled, openly demanding a reward. She held out her hand and said, "You have to give me something in return, right?"
Huangfu Qian replied coldly, "I have already asked Ah Feng to search far and wide for high-quality jade."
“I’ll bomb it when we leave Anping County together,” Xia Mo replied.
Huangfu Qianying glanced at Xia Mo.
Xia Mo looked into Huangfu Qian's eyes and said bluntly, "You know, my family lives in this area. If the number of fake flies exploding in Anping County increases, it will attract more attention and trouble."
