Chapter 149: Chapter 149 This Girl is Crazy Chapter 149: Chapter 149 This Girl is Crazy “Grandfather, are you talking to me?” Xuexue turned her head slightly, glancing disdainfully at the furious Old Master Mo, her lips curling into a mocking smile.
“You… you… you hopeless girl, release your grandmother this instant! She is your elder, and you… you… you even dare to hit her? Aren’t you afraid that Heaven will strike you with bolts of lightning?”
“You all come storming into my house, beating up my mother, if Heaven really had eyes, it would strike you down instead.”
“You insolent girl, we are your elders, what’s wrong if we beat and scold you?” Old Master Mo, infuriated, puffed up his beard and glared, his limbs trembling uncontrollably.
“Nonsense, you Mo family have already disowned my mother, what right do you have to beat her?”
Old Master Mo was left speechless and trembling with anger due to Xuexue’s words.
Aunt Sun’s eyes were bulging with rage, nearing combustion, fueled by the hatred for the ‘little cheap person’ before her who, despite her young age, was malicious enough to bite off her ear and steal all her possessions. Grinding her teeth audibly, she said through clenched teeth, “It was because you stole the Mo family’s silver that we came knocking.”
Aunt Sun deliberately emphasized the words ‘Mo family’ to provoke a shared outrage among the Mo family members.
Xuexue turned around, her eyes coldly glaring at Aunt Sun, this despicable woman, colluding with Butcher Yu, thinking no one knew of their deeds, hmph! She would see how well she fares later. With furrowed brows, she coldly asked, “Stolen silver?”
“Yes, all my silver and jewelry,” Aunt Sun said, her teeth clenched in hatred.
“Yours? Or the Mo family’s?” Xuexue raised an eyebrow.
“I am born a member of the Mo family, and I will die a ghost of the Mo family, so naturally, my possessions are also the Mo family’s.” Aunt Sun, not truly believing her own words, said this needing the support of the Mo family at the moment.
“That’s not necessarily true, look at my mother, a living evidence. She gave birth to us three sisters and slaved away for the Mo family for over a decade, only to be disowned in the end. And you think you, a mere concubine, would be any different?” Xuexue scoffed.
“I am different,” Aunt Sun retorted haughtily, lifting her chin.
“Indeed, with your seductive ways, you can’t even compare to a single finger of my mother!” Xuexue scoffed repeatedly.
“You, you little cheap person, what nonsense are you spouting?”
“Whether I’m spouting nonsense, you know it in your heart, don’t you?” Xuexue retorted.
Aunt Sun was secretly shocked, could this ‘little cheap person’ know something? Then she thought again, it shouldn’t be the case, every meeting with Butcher Yu had been so secretive, and she was somewhat reassured.
Xuexue clutched Old Lady Mo’s wrist without letting go, her mouth sharp as ever, leaving the Mo family members at a loss for what to do with her.
Old Lady Mo, frail with age, winced as Xuexue’s grip tightened like a vice on her wrist, causing cold sweat to break out on her forehead as she wailed loudly in pain, “You hopeless girl, release me at once! How dare you strike your grandmother, aren’t you afraid of being criticized for lacking filial piety?”
“Filial piety? There’s no need for that towards people with such malicious hearts,” Xuexue snapped, tightening her grip provocatively on the wrist.
Immediately, Old Lady Mo cried out again as if being slaughtered, “Old man, save me, old man, this girl… she… she’s gone mad.”
Old Master Mo was anxious, but powerless against Xuexue; if even Mo Xiaoqiang, her father, couldn’t handle her, what could an old man do?
Although Madam Xie was angered by them bullying her daughter, for Xuexue’s reputation, she still said, “Xuexue, she is your grandmother, let her go.”
Upon Madam Xie’s intervention, Xuexue scornfully humphed and finally released her.
