Chapter 420 Government Officer

Xie Residence

As soon as Xuexue and Big Bull entered the house, Madam Xie's room door opened. Seeing that they looked travel-worn, as if they had just returned, she couldn't help but be startled and quickly asked, "Xuexue, Big Bull, have you just come back from the fields? Haven't you slept all night?"

"Yes! There were so many people, and before we knew it, it was dawn." Xuexue turned to glance at Madam Xie, and once the lie was told, she had to see it through.

The path to the creek in the fields was very narrow, and at this time of year, it was the season when the creek dried up, and the water flow was even smaller. With Xuexue saying this, Madam Xie believed her completely.

In previous years, while at the Mo family's, during this season, it was Mo Xiaoqiang and his brother who took turns guarding the water source in the fields, for fear that if they weren't careful, other villagers would block off their water supply.
