Chapter 171 - 171 It's All Your Fault!
171 It’s All Your Fault!
“How can you do that? Your mother-in-law’s words and actions are too hateful. Although you didn’t tell this old man in detail, just from what Wang Luosheng told me, it’s not hard to imagine what the source of the rumors is like.”
“Since this old man has already submitted a lawsuit, I can’t miss the court trial tomorrow. Otherwise, people will say that this old man is just putting on an act and has a strong beginning but a weak end.”
After Imperial Doctor Tian finished speaking, Mo Ruyue no longer tried to persuade him. Although Imperial Doctor Tian had done enough for her, an old man had his own stubbornness and it would not be right to persuade him.
After coming out of the government office, Mo Ruyue first went back to Huichun Hall to get the imperial carriage. It was getting late, so she didn’t take in the remaining patients and went home directly.
Just as Mo Ruyue drove the carriage to the village entrance, she heard a burst of crying coming from the direction of her home. There were old and young people, and it was very lively.
She could already tell that it wasn’t her babies’ voices, and she had heard that cry more than once. It seemed that some people had already received the news in advance and had come to their door to act pitiful.
When she slowly drove the carriage to her house, she saw a few familiar figures blocking the entrance. Her children were all standing at the door, and the man with a helpless expression in front of him was Du Zhongheng.
Usually, he would have already returned by now, but he had actually stayed until now. She didn’t know if it was because he was blocked by the people at the door and couldn’t leave.
Mo Ruyue guessed the situation correctly.
Before she had returned, someone from the magistrate’s office came to inform Qin Shi to go to the magistrate’s office for a hearing the next morning.
As soon as he said this, the Qin family immediately exploded.
Previously, although Mo Ruyue had submitted a complaint to the deputy prefect, there had been no news for a month. The entire Qin family thought that she was just scaring them at that time and quickly threw this matter to the back of their minds.
He didn’t expect the government office runners to come to her door today and deliver such a piece of news.
Initially, Lady Qin did not believe it. However, that bailiff was fierce and said that if she did not show up tomorrow, he would come to arrest her with chains and canes when she was summoned again.
Qin Shi finally understood that she was really going to go to court for a trial. After a moment of daze, she immediately brought the Qin family’s second daughter-in-law, Wang Shi, and a pair of grandchildren to Mo Ruyue’s door to cry. As for the second son, Qin Xu, she didn’t know where he went to drink and didn’t know about this matter.
Coincidentally, Du Zhongheng had just finished teaching today’s class and was about to leave when he was blocked by Qin Shi and the others who had rushed over. He just watched them cry and complain with snot and tears in their eyes. He had been blocked here for a long time.
Now that he accidentally looked up and saw Mo Ruyue coming back, it was as if he had seen his savior. He quickly waved to her and said, “Madam Qin, you’re finally back!”
“Mother!” The babies also shouted.
“Mother, you’re back!”
…
The crying family also stopped for a while and turned around to look. Sure enough, they saw that Mo Ruyue had already gotten off the imperial carriage and was slowly walking over.
“What are you doing? You’re blocking my door and crying. Who are you trying to create trouble for?”
Mo Ruyue raised her eyebrows and retorted coldly without waiting for Qin Shi to speak.
“Mo Ruyue, you want this old woman’s life and also want my Qin family to have no descendants, right? You’re so cruel!”
Although Qin Shi had suffered a lot from Mo Ruyue, she had not learned her lesson. At this time, she was clearly here to plead for mercy, but her mouth was full of complaints. If one didn’t know better, they would think that she was here to condemn.
“Let’s make it clear, who’s the one without descendants? You really don’t mind cursing your own family’s bloodline. If you have a crow’s mouth, you should talk less!”
Although Mo Ruyue was an atheist, those words still hurt her ears. She didn’t care what happened to the second branch, but she couldn’t curse or touch the five babies of the first branch. She couldn’t even curse them.
“You’ve brought me to the authorities and we’re going to court tomorrow. How can my Qingyuan and Qingfei face the public in the future? If you’re not forcing our family to die, what are you doing? Isn’t our Qin family going to have no descendants?”
Qin Shi couldn’t care about crying anymore. After crying for a long time, it was still a dry howl. There wasn’t even a trace of tears on her face. She could only pretentiously press her eye sockets twice and was busy complaining.
“Oh? Only Qingyuan and Qingfei are from the Qin family? Fine, don’t call yourself the grandmother of Qingyan and the others anymore. You don’t think of these five children as your Qin family’s blood anyway.”
When Mo Ruyue heard this, not only was she not angry, she laughed instead.
Qin Shi’s voice choked and she almost choked on Mo Ruyue’s words.
She originally wanted to accuse Mo Ruyue of being vicious and cold, but she didn’t expect Mo Ruyue to catch her words. Now, it was her who didn’t acknowledge her own blood. If she wanted to have any relationship with Da Bao and the others in the future, she would be slapping herself in the face.
“I didn’t mean that, don’t talk nonsense!” She quickly waved her hand. Qingyan’s five children are my eldest son’s children, but you’re the one who married into the family. You have nothing to do with us, and you even incited my grandsons to be at odds with me. ”
“If it wasn’t for you, why would they have removed their household registration from our Qin family? it’s all your fault!”
“After the separation, the household registration naturally has to be held in my own hands. How can it be my fault? But we all heard what you just said. Do you want Qingyan to repeat what you said?”
As Mo Ruyue spoke, he looked at da bao, who was standing beside Du Zhongheng. At this moment, he was looking at the Qin family and the second branch of the Qin family with a cold expression. One could not see any pity for them.
Da Bao looked over and said, ” “She just said that mother wanted to force their family to death, and the Qin family’s bloodline would end here. She really didn’t treat us siblings as part of the Qin family.”
The remaining four babies all lowered their heads sadly. Although they knew that they were not well-liked by their grandmother, they still could not help but feel sad when they heard such hurtful words.
Mo Ruyue couldn’t bear to see her baby being wronged. She had already walked to a place not far from the Qin Clan. She pulled the reins in her hand and said, “Make way, good dogs don’t block the way.”
The originally docile big young mule suddenly raised its head and gave a long neigh. It stomped its four hooves on the ground and sniffed continuously. It seemed to be a little restless.
Qin Shi was startled by the big young mule and subconsciously took two steps back. Even the mother and daughter of the second branch of the Qin family followed her and stepped back. In the end, they gave way to the door.
“Mr. Du, you missed the carriage on the way back. It’s getting late. How about I find someone to send you back?” he said.
Mo Ruyue did not mention the embarrassment of Du Zhongheng being surrounded by Qin Shi’s people. With just a few words, she helped him out of the situation.
“Aiya, then I’ll have to trouble Lady Qin. Although I don’t want to trouble Lady Qin, but there is really no carriage to go back now. If I’m late, I’ll have to walk back.”
“There’s no need to walk. There are many big houses anyway, just stay here and save the trouble tomorrow morning.”
A young voice came over. Although it was still in a sobbing tone, the anger and mean tone were not concealed at all.
“Qingfei, what nonsense are you saying!”
