Chapter 159: Chapter 159 Yanyan Chapter 159: Chapter 159 Yanyan the Mo family
“Old man, did you hear? Yesterday, Old Master Mo brought a lot of gifts to the old residence.” At the dining table, Old Lady Mo held her rice bowl and picked up a piece of cured meat, her face dark with gloom.
The cured meat she used to take such pride in now lost its flavor after she’d been to the old residence and seen that large platter of pork. Jealousy filled her heart, those lowlifes getting to eat meat with every meal.
But, with Big Bull, the calamity star, there, she didn’t dare to make trouble. That day, she was scared to the point of wetting herself in panic, and when she returned home and felt her crotch, it was wet through. She had actually peed herself in fear, but she never made it known, as it was too humiliating.
Old Master Mo also had a belly full of anger. That day, being chased by Big Bull down nine alleys, he became the butt of jokes in Mo Family Village.
Now, whenever he stepped outside, the neighbors would joke that if there was a running contest for the Mo Family Village elders, he and Old Lady Mo would surely win first place. After all, if they could escape so swiftly, they were undoubtedly just as fast at running.
Old Master Mo’s face was overcast as he slammed down his bowl and chopsticks, huffing, “Don’t talk to me about the old residence again, it’s irritating.” With that, he left the table without finishing his meal.
“You dead old man, why take your anger out on me? If you’re so capable, go vent at the old residence!” Old Lady Mo was also infuriated.
“Mother, don’t be upset, eat.” Mo Daoyan spoke while picking a piece of cured meat into his own bowl, but thought to himself, the less they ate, the more meat for him.
“Eat what! Thinking of those cheap bones eating my meat every day makes my heart, liver, and lungs ache.” Madam Xie’s money always ended up in her pockets, daring not to utter a word. Old Lady Mo subconsciously believed that everything belonging to Madam Xie was hers.
“Yelling here like a maniac is useless, you don’t have the guts to go up to the old residence.” Auntie Sun’s voice was filled with mockery.
She hated Xuexue with a passion in her heart but also feared Big Bull, her abundant resentment had to be bottled up.
“It all comes back to you, you stinky wench, inciting us to make trouble at the old residence that day. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have fallen out with them,” Old Lady Mo glared resentfully at Auntie Sun with her old eyes.
“Exactly, Madam Xie used to listen to Mother-in-law. It’s all because of you, you Seductress Fox causing trouble,” Madam Ruan chimed in, still pained by the loss of so many New Year’s goods she failed to get her hands on.
Seeing they were blaming her, Auntie Sun refused to take it, clutching Mo Xiaoqiang’s arm and shaking it vigorously, speaking in an even more coquettishly sweet voice, “Husband, look, they are bullying me, that day we all went there together.”
Auntie Sun’s suddenly coquettish voice gave Mo Daoyan’s family the creeps.
And yet, Mo Xiaoqiang appeared to enjoy it, “Exactly, you all made quite a scene then; you can’t blame everything on my wife when things go south.”
“Big brother, I think you should be the one to step in, you’ll definitely succeed. After all, you are their biological father, aren’t you?” Mo Daoyan rubbed his arms, trying to dispel his goosebumps.
As soon as Mo Xiaoqiang heard the suggestion he intervene, his face fell, his voice deflated, “You all saw Xuexue’s reaction that day, she hates me to death; there’s no chance.”
“Are you dumb? There’s still Chuner, and if that fails, bring Yanyan back to help.”
Mo Xiaoqiang’s spirits lifted immediately, slapping his thigh, “Right! How could I forget Yanyan? Back in the day, we were the closest.”
