Chapter 328: Chapter 328: Yellow-faced Wife Chapter 328: Chapter 328: Yellow-faced Wife “That’s right, Xuexue said that anyone from your family can go to the feast, except Auntie Sun must not.” Madam Xie, who was just about to leave, suddenly remembered this and quickly turned back to instruct Mo Xiaoqiang.
Mo Xiaoqiang was somewhat stunned. Previously, Madam Xie had never targeted Auntie Sun in the Mo family. Why did she suddenly detest her to the point of specifically singling her out, forbidding her from attending alone? Could it be that from love sprang hate, and she was jealous of his attention? Thinking of this, he couldn’t help feeling a bit of secret pleasure.
“You still have the nerve to ask me? Are you unclear about the shameful things you’ve done? I’ve relayed the message; you weigh the consequences yourself.” As soon as she mentioned the matter, Madam Xie was fuming with rage. After speaking, she turned on her heel and walked away. She couldn’t stand seeing Auntie Sun for another second, her anger reaching new heights.
It dawned on Mo Xiaoqiang that it was because he had been caught in a disgraceful act with Auntie Sun, almost ruining Xuexue’s prospects. Madam Xie was still holding a grudge, which filled him with guilt.
In the end, it was all Auntie Sun’s fault, that wretched woman. He should have never colluded with her and her adulterer to harm his daughter, causing him to be disgraced both inside and outside the family. Not only did he have a green hat on his head, but his wife and daughter also harbored doubts about him.
Sitting on the ground and howling in pain, Auntie Sun’s palms were bleeding, but her attention was fixed on Mo Xiaoqiang and Madam Xie, her ears pricked up listening to their conversation. As soon as she heard Madam Xie say she couldn’t go to the feast, she disregarded the injuries on her hands and cursed at Madam Xie’s retreating back: “You vixen spirit, if you want to seduce my husband, just say it straight. Inviting him to the feast with such roundabout tactics–is that not to steal my man? How shameful is that?”
“What are you doing?”
Worried that she would anger Madam Xie, causing them both to be uninvited to the feast, Mo Xiaoqiang quickly covered her mouth tightly with his hand, stopping her from speaking.
Struggling to breathe, Auntie Sun pried Mo Xiaoqiang’s hand off with all her strength, gasping for several deep breaths of air to recover. Angrily, she exclaimed, “Husband, what are you doing? Are you trying to suffocate me to death?”
At this moment, Mo Xiaoqiang was also furious. Just as his relationship with Madam Xie was beginning to thaw, Auntie Sun, the troublemaker, was stirring up chaos again. He was understandably enraged.
“You wretched woman, I might as well smother you to death to keep you from ruining things for me.”
“Do you truly wish to reconcile with that yellow-faced wife?” Auntie Sun was extremely angry.
“She’s my lawful wife, and maintaining a good relationship with her is only proper, especially since we have three daughters.” In a fit of rage, Mo Xiaoqiang spoke without restraint. Moreover, in his heart, Auntie Sun was a woman who had not been faithful and had been involved with another man. Being with her now was only a temporary arrangement, and he might dismiss her any day.
“How could you treat me this way?” Auntie Sun’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“I’ve already been kind to you. If it were not for me, our Mo family wouldn’t have put up with you until now,” Mo Xiaoqiang said through gritted teeth.
Realizing her own guilt, Auntie Sun understood the implications behind her husband’s words. She immediately fell silent, not daring to say more out of fear that a careless word might let Old Lady Mo, who was nearby, learn of her illicit affair with Butcher Yu. If that were to happen, she’d certainly be cast out of the Mo family, which would be a disaster.
Old Lady Mo also looked at Auntie Sun with displeasure and commanded, “Since they don’t want you there, on that day, you’ll stay at home and do the household chores. If you dare spoil our happiness, beware that this old maid might skin you alive.”
Auntie Sun, isolated and powerless, could only swallow her anger for the time being, waiting for an opportunity to regain her strength.
