Chapter 1124: Chapter 359: The Murderer, The Opportunity_4

Apart from a few households that were somewhat reluctant, the proposal unexpectedly received the agreement of the majority.

The villagers had suffered through many years of hardship, and even if they had some extra money, they did not dare to spend it frivolously. However, fortune and misfortune come unexpectedly, and no one can guarantee that good times will last forever. By contributing a little silver now, if their family cannot afford schooling for their children in the future, at least the school could ensure that their children could continue their studies. This was the real reason why most villagers were willing to give silver to the school.

This was entirely voluntary; as for those families who were capable but unwilling to contribute silver, no one would compel them. Of course, if people from other villages were willing to contribute silver, no one would refuse them either.

"Yanyan, I think you can implement your next plan now," Xue tuanzi said to Mo Yan with pleasure, looking at the few new red streaks on the Merit Pearl.

"I didn’t expect to earn merit for such a thing," Mo Yan sighed. She had just made a suggestion at Yang Bao’s house and had not expected it to gain so much approval, let alone people voicing issues she hadn’t even mentioned.

While the merit earned this time was not much, if they carried out the plan, more people would be helped, and wouldn’t the merit continue to increase steadily?

"So, shouldn’t you start taking action?" Xue tuanzi urged eagerly, wishing that everything could be settled by tomorrow so that Space could level up the day after.

"What’s the rush? This isn’t something that can be done in just a couple of days," Mo Yan soothed the impatient Xue tuanzi: "This matter is quite complicated, and since it’s being done in Chu Heng’s name, I must tell him about it first. If he’s not happy with it, we’ll have to think of something else."

"Ah, you mortals are such a nuisance," Xue tuanzi sighed helplessly, looking at its master who had just had a brainstorm. "It would be great if you were the Emperor; then we wouldn’t have to worry about anything. How about I sacrifice a bit and let you become the Empress?"

"You silly thing, talking nonsense again," Mo Yan said with a chuckle, flicking Xue tuanzi’s belly with her finger: "Let’s not even talk about whether allowing me to become the Empress would cost something that would offend the Heavenly Dao; just dealing with all the political affairs would be enough to wear a person out. How could there be any joy in that? It may feel great to control the fate of others as an Empress, but what of it? Am I not going to die as well?"

Xue tuanzi cocked its snail-like eyes in contemplation of Mo Yan’s question, seemingly understanding something and yet not understanding anything at all. In its long life in the Cultivation World, there was nothing it wanted to do that it couldn’t. Even though it was currently trapped in Space, it had the power to change dynasties in the Mortal Realm—of course, at a significant cost.

Mo Yan didn’t expect Xue tuanzi to understand, so she changed the subject: "There hasn’t been any snow these days, and the snow seems to be starting to melt. I plan to go to the city tomorrow to see Miss Liu, and also to visit Chu Heng and talk to him properly about this matter."

On hearing this, Xue tuanzi said sourly, "You only remember your Sister Lan. Even the important matter of accumulating merit is put behind her in your mind, hmph, it seems I’m not even as good as a friend to you."

Mo Yan, caught between laughter and tears, consoled the sulking Xue tuanzi: "Sister Lan’s matter is urgent and easier to resolve, that’s why I’m seeing her first. If it were you, I would do the same thing."

"Really?" Xue tuanzi looked skeptically at Mo Yan, feeling a bit happier inside.

"Of course it’s true. In my heart, there’s no difference between you and Xin’er Zhen’er; you’re also my family. Look, your body was molded from my blood. I see you as my own younger sister."
