The people rolled their eyes one after another after hearing her words. Is this the proper way to address a mother-in-law?
But on second thought, there was nothing wrong with it. Mo Hong’s family treated Mo Wu, their daughter-in-law, horribly—all the neighbors saw it clearly. If Mo Wu had been as assertive as Mo Niu’s, would Mo Hong’s dare to treat her in such a way?
Mo Wu’s lifeless eyes moved slightly, and she stared blankly at Mo Niu’s, her mouth opened as if to speak, but her mind was empty, and she didn’t know what to say.
Mo Niu’s, with hands on her hips, rolled her eyes: "What are you looking at for? If you had used the energy you spent thinking about dying to deal with that old hag, it would have been her wanting to die! If you keep being so useless, next ti she’ll sell your Dani and San Ni to that lazy Mo Yongxi to add to his marriage portion. If you don’t believe , just wait and see!"
At this, Mo Niu’s eyes reddened, not only rembering her own daughter who had been sold away but also Si Nier.
Originally, that old hag wanted to sell her granddaughter, and to keep her from setting her sights on Erni, Mo Niu’s had encouraged her to sell Si Nier. At the ti, it didn’t seem like a big deal, but when Erni was sold, she really understood the pain involved and felt sowhat guilty for Si Nier, not knowing where she had been sold to.
Mo Wu also rembered her little daughter, whose fate was unknown, and her eyes suddenly reddened. She finally couldn’t hold back and began to cry loudly. Her piercing cries pierced the half of the sky, making the others’ hearts ache and increasing their sympathy for this weak and pitiful woman.
After having cried enough, and with the persuasion from the neighborhood won, Mo Wu finally abandoned her suicidal thoughts but took Mo Niu’s words to heart.
A few won, who could barely muster the strength to help the soft and frail Mo Wu, supported her and brought her back ho. Mo Hong’s, whose heart had been in suspense, finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, she did not stop cursing Mo Wu for being unfilial, rebellious, deliberately seeking death, and conspiring with those won to trap her, the mother-in-law, angering them to almost fight her.
After seeing off the kind won, the expression on Mo Wu’s face darkened as she turned around. She glared at the still cursing Mo Hong’s and walked into her room, slamming the door shut with a bang.
Mo Hong’s was stunned for a mont, then imdiately rushed over to the door and started banging and cursing even more fiercely. But no matter how much she cursed until her throat was hoarse, Mo Wu did not utter a sound, let alone open the door.
Mo Niu’s seed to sense sothing different about her sister-in-law, and with a cold laugh and a twist of her hips, she returned to her own room.
From now on, there would be good drama to watch in this house!
It wasn’t long before Old Man Mo, who had heard the rumors, hurried back ho. As soon as he arrived, he locked the main door and dragged Mo Hong’s by her hair to the ground and started beating her viciously.
This ti, it was not just with hands and feet—the washing bat used for laundry was broken too. Mo Hong’s screams, like those of a slaughtered pig, echoed throughout half of Liu Yang Village.
Mo Yongfu and his brothers, who hadn’t found work during the day, returned ho disappointed, only to learn that their mother had caused trouble again, almost driving her daughter-in-law (sister-in-law) to death. They were so angry that they didn’t even visit the bedridden Mo Hong’s.

Mo Yan had just co back from the fields and was frightened into a cold sweat when Xin Er told her that her aunt had almost jumped into the river. After learning the causes and consequences of the incident, she hated Mo Hong’s to the extre.
Seeing her distressed, Xin Er quickly comforted her, "Sister, you had the best intentions; you can’t bla yourself for this. It’s all because of that shaless old hag’s doings."
Mo Yan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and said with relief, "Thankfully, we stopped her in ti; otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to rest easy for the rest of my
