prisoner in the door

"Daddy, I got something today, I heard it's a good thing, but I don't know it, can Daddy palm my eyes for me?"

"Nonsense." After reprimanding him softly, Mo Xiang still let go of Mo Zhenzhen's soft and hard speech, and asked her to bring the things up.

The little girls who followed Mo Zhenzhen each carried a tray in their hands, and they all had smiles on their faces when they came in, looking young and lively, which was not allowed in the once oppressive prime minister's mansion of.

But now no one scolded them for being unruly, and even Mo Xiang had a smile in his eyes.

When Mo Xiang picked up the teacup to drink tea, Mo Zhenzhen had brought a wooden box over personally as if offering a treasure, and placed it lightly on the desk in front of Mo Xiang.

Mo Xiang put down the teacup, glanced at Mo Zhenzhen who was smiling flatteringly, and then reached out to open the lid.

The lid was opened, and Mo Xiang's gaze fell on it. He paused for two seconds, and then a subtle change occurred in his expression.

This kind of change requires Mo Zhenzhen to distinguish carefully to see some clues, but even if she can detect the ups and downs of Mo Xiang's mood, she cannot understand the meaning of these ups and downs.

Mo Xiang almost instinctively hid his true emotions, and after a while, as if he had looked carefully enough, he reached out and picked up the contents of the wooden box.

It was a meaty mushroom with a somewhat strange shape. Its skin was dry, slightly cool to the touch, and the whole thing was gray. If this thing hadn't been brought by Taoist monks to sell it, no one would normally have it. notice it.

But Mo Xiang held it carefully for a while, then put it back, and then closed the box again. He opened his eyes and asked Mo Zhenzhen a question.

"Where did you get this thing?"

Mo Zhenzhen noticed the seriousness in Mo Xiang's tone, so she told the origin of this thing in detail, and asked a question when she finished.

"Daddy, can you give an estimate for this thing?"

Mo Xiang's expression already showed that this thing is a good thing, if so, it must be bought.

Mo Xiang thought about it, but he really quoted a price to her.

"This thing can be said to have a price but no market, and a hundred taels of gold is still available."

Mo Zhenzhen nodded, and then waved to the maids behind her, who came over and put down all the boxes.

Mo Zhenzhen instructed the maidservants to put the boxes on the ground and put them away.She seems to be concentrating on these boxes, but she is actually still observing Mo Xiang from the corner of her eye.

Mo Zhenzhen could feel that Mo Xiang's attention was also on those boxes. The boxes were full of these mushrooms, one for each box, 33 boxes in total.

After putting away the box, Mo Zhenzhen didn't plan to keep any more.

"Then daddy, let me give these to you. If there are any more in the future, I will send them to you."

Mo Zhenzhen didn't ask what it was, it was a tacit understanding between her and Mo Xiang, and Mo Xiang obviously liked Mo Zhenzhen's knowledge and wit, the smile on his face was more than two points, he gave her a little head, and let her go.

Is Mo Zhenzhen really not curious about what those mushrooms are?

Of course she is curious!
So why didn't she ask?

Of course it is not necessary.

Asked, no matter whether Mo Xiang answered or not, he would feel unhappy, and she has other channels to know what it is, so why does she have to deal with Mo Xiang's bad luck?

So Mo Zhenzhen simply ignored it and became an obedient and well-behaved daughter, so that she could get more.

Mo Zhenzhen had just returned to Tianxiangyuan, and was telling the nanny in charge to take it, and when she set a purchase price of one thousand gold per flower, the steward from the prime minister's mansion came with the accountant.

They came to give Mo Zhenzhen a banknote worth 5 taels of gold. Mo Xiang was quite generous.

Mo Xiang has a lot of deeds to rare treasures, land and houses, but when it comes to real money and silver, it’s really hard to say how much he has.

Now that he has taken out 5 taels of gold in one go, the pre-stored silver taels in the account of the prime minister's mansion should have been reduced by more than half.

Mo Zhenzhen took the bank note with a smile on her face, and then handed it over to the nurse in charge, asking her to continue with the reward offering.

The nanny in charge was also discerning, and after taking the silver ticket, she left respectfully, and five days later (a quick round-trip time), before Mo Zhenzhen had dinner, a batch of mushrooms was delivered come over.

This time it was sent directly to the General's Mansion, and Mo Zhenzhen personally received it. This time, there were more than 70 mushrooms. Mo Zhenzhen drove the other maids out, and then took a mushroom into the ghost.

As soon as she entered the ghost beast, she felt a strange sense of oppression.

Mo Zhenzhen scanned the surroundings, and met a pair of vigilant eyes unexpectedly.

She almost subconsciously locked on the cause of this anomaly - the mushroom she brought in.

Mo Zhenzhen held the mushroom in front of her eyes for a closer look, then looked at the ghostly employees who were facing an enemy in front of her, and asked with a smile.

"Do you know this thing?"

When Mo Zhenzhen asked this question, some of the ghosts couldn't help but showed a fierce look, but they were slapped on the back of the head by the relatively rational ghost around them, which finally woke them up.

The answer to Mo Zhenzhen's question was the little lady who appeared next to Mo Zhenzhen at some point and took the mushroom behind her (the little girl who was raped by the family).

The little lady's appearance was so silent that even Mo Zhenzhen didn't notice it, and she easily took the things from her hand, which made Mo Zhenzhen very vigilant.

But looking back at the little lady, there was something wrong with her appearance, and her eyes seemed to be redder.

The little lady held the mushroom and played with it for a while, then took a deep breath, as if she was calming down, and also seemed to be saying something with emotion.

"I haven't seen this thing in a long time."

"what is this?"

"It's the shell."

Mo Zhenzhen didn't understand, so she was speechless and waited for the young lady's next words.

The little lady didn't hold back, she was just a little emotional, so she just paused and explained to Mo Zhenzhen.

"Do you know 'hungry everywhere'?"

Mo Zhenzhen nodded, of course she knew this, describing the hungry people everywhere due to famine.

The little lady returned the mushroom that she said was the 'shell' to Mo Zhenzhen, and then gave her a popular science, the meaning of 'hungry' in another spiritual world.

Here, starvation refers to people who have been repeatedly tortured by hunger to despair and died. These people will turn into starving ghosts after death, and before they turn into starving ghosts, they will undergo a transformation.

Starving ghosts are ghosts that eat everything. The first thing they do is eat their own corpses, just like newborn cubs will eat their own eggshells.

Today's Jiageng will be later, it should be after twelve o'clock, Tanliang's stomach hurts.
