Chapter 539: Chapter 539 Brazen Shalessness
Facing their shaless actions,
Mo Xiaoqiang was furious.
It was only at this mont that he realized how annoying his behavior had been in the past.
“Don’t pick the waterlons, get out of here now,” Mo Xiaoqiang, holding the sickle he used to cut waterlons, shouted at them loudly.
This move startled Old Lady Mo and the others.
“Qiangqiang, have you lost your mind? Pointing a knife at your own mother, aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning?” Old Lady Mo’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Mo Xiaoqiang, her eldest son, whom she used to like a lot. However, his recent actions had disappointed her.
“You all aren’t afraid of being bandits, what do I have to fear?”
“Big brother, you’re going too far, how can you describe us as bandits?” Mo Daoyan looked at Mo Xiaoqiang with a face full of unhappiness and bla.
Mo Xiaoqiang glared at him: “What? Guilty but not willing to admit it?”
Old Lady Mo walked around the field and found that under the hay, there were waterlons covered all over, her eyes turning red with anger. Damn it, that’s all silver.
“Who’s stealing? This is my field. Is it still considered banditry to pick sothing from my own field?” Suddenly, Old Lady Mo’s tone beca aggressive, and she felt an intense desire to claim this waterlon field for herself.
“Mother, how can you be like this?” Mo Xiaoqiang looked at Old Lady Mo in disbelief.
“What about ? What about ?” Old Lady Mo, seeing the round and big waterlons all over the field, felt as if she was seeing mountains of gold and silver flying towards her.
That damned girl Xuexue, selling a cart full of waterlons every day, how much silver does she earn? She was a fool for only letting Madam Xie send over two waterlons a day.
Mo Xiaoqiang argued justly: “This plot of land has clearly already been given to them, mother and daughter, how can you go back on your word?”
“I am going back on it, what about it?” Old Lady Mo, blinded by the imdiate benefits, didn’t care at all.
“You… you… .” Mo Xiaoqiang was extrely angry. It was his first day coming to help and such a big incident had occurred; if Madam Xie and her daughter could no longer trust him, what would he do?
“Mother is doing this for the good of the Mo family, Qiangqiang, don’t be ungrateful. Don’t forget, your surna is Mo, you have to consider our Mo family. If your nephew becos a Juren in the future and embarks on an official career, won’t you rise with him?”
Mo Xiaoqiang sneered, showing disdain: “Mother, stop deluding , I am not a child, and you can’t just deceive
with a few words.”
Considering Mo Hengjian’s character, he thought, even as his uncle, let alone his biological parents, it was impossible to expect any benefit from him. Mo Hengjian was simply a spoiled child, selfish and only ever considering his own interests. He never thought about the feelings of others; of course, apart from Old Lady Mo, his grandmother who still had so use to him, he never gave others so much as a glance.
Every ti he returned from the Academy, he never initiated a greeting to Mr. and Mrs. Mo Daoyan, not to ntion him as his uncle.
Therefore, Old Lady Mo said he had to rely on this nephew for the second half of his life.
He dared not count on it.
“I don’t care, the waterlons in this field are all mine now anyway,” Old Lady Mo declared.
Old Lady Mo made a huge fuss in the waterlon field with Mr. and Mrs. Mo Daoyan.
When Shopkeeper Fan arrived with his cart, he was vehently obstructed by Old Lady Mo, who refused to let the waterlons be loaded onto the cart unless she was paid silver.
Shopkeeper Fan originally thought of giving her several taels of silver to appease her, but who knew that Old Lady Mo would ask for such an outrageous amount, demanding at least fifty taels of silver, otherwise, the waterlons would not be transported that day.
With Xuexue not there, Shopkeeper Fan had no choice, and in the end, he had to return with an empty cart.
