"Mom, this wife doesn't dare." Su Qing stepped forward and tried to support Madame Li, but Madame Li fiercely pinched her arm, causing her face to pale in pain.
Seeing that Su Qing didn't dare to make a sound, Madame Li smiled, her eyes beaming with joy."You're such an unfilial person. You didn't even come out to greet me when I arrived. Do you really think that you don't have to respect me, your mother-in-law, after hearing that Cheng'er is dead? I can't cure you, you bastard!"
Her arms were hurting, but Su Qing didn't dare to even rub them. She quickly shook her head, "Mother, this wife doesn't dare. It's just that Yao'er has just woken up. I'm worried and couldn't react for a while."
Madame Li slightly tilted her eyes, and upon hearing these words, her forehead immediately rose: "So you're saying that I wronged you? Don't think that I don't understand your dirty thoughts. When Cheng'er was still alive, you secretly instigated him, making him disrespect his mother, and even separated from me. Now that Cheng is no longer around, you look down on me even more. If I had known earlier, I would have let Cheng'er divorce you."
On the bed, the rage in Mu Yunyao's heart burned when she heard Madame Li humiliate her mother like this.
When her father left for the capital to earn a living, there was no sign of him. Three months later, news of his death arrived. His mother cried and fainted several times, but her grandmother caused a ruckus at the funeral. She said that her mother was useless and failed to give birth to a son for her father. After her father died, there was no one who could carry the coffin.
His mother had fallen ill, and his grandmother had become even more anxious. She had moved away all the things that could be used at home, and had come even more frequently afterwards, hinting at his mother's remarriage.
Thinking up to here, she couldn't hold back anymore, and abruptly turned around to glare at Madame Li. Light entered her eyes, and surged with killing intent. Get out of my house! "
"Su Qing, it doesn't matter that you killed my son, but you taught her how to disrespect her grandmother. It seems like you intend to anger me to death! After being married for twelve years, you bear an egg, and you are even a vile spawn who collects debts. After so many years, you can't go down to the earth, you can't give birth to a son. It's simply disgracing to control my son against me!"
"Mom, I'm not." Su Qing quickly shook her head.
Madame Li, however, lost her patience."Hmph, now that you're widowed, your family won't be able to keep you. Tomorrow, pack up and go to Lord Zhang's house!"
"Mother, like I said, I want to protect Yao'er for the rest of her life. I won't remarry!"
"Heh, you have always been one to enjoy luxury. If Cheng'er is alive, you would have just spent the entire day embroidering on the ground, but now I will help you fulfill your wish and send you to the rich man's house. Master Zhang is really generous. Even if he accepts you as his concubine, he has already given me a lot of betrothal gifts. I've already accepted them, so you have to go.
Upon hearing this, Su Qing's already pale face turned even paler."Mother, it's not even been two months since my husband died. I have to keep watch over him ..."
"Chastity? If Cheng'er dies, you will be the one to die. Unfilial hoof ..." Lady Li said as she looked at Mu Yunyao on the bed. She pushed Su Qing away and pulled her up, "You'd only been married to my Mu family for less than nine months and yet you'd already given birth to this scoundrel. Who knows who was the one you had gotten pregnant with back then? You are an unchaste person to begin with, and you still call yourself a person of honor."
"Mother ... You.. You... How can you say that?" Su Qing almost cried on the spot.
At first, when she was pregnant with Mu Yunyao and saw that it was already late in the month, Madame Li despised her for not doing any work. While Mu Cheng wasn't around, she had to make her carry water and wash it, but she accidentally slipped and gave birth prematurely, causing Mu Yunyao to be born weak. At that time, because she was in the wrong, Madame Li settled down for quite a few days, but now, she dared to use this as an excuse to criticize her!
"Shameless thing, you lied to Cheng'er before, but now don't even think about lying to me anymore! It was you who did not follow the path of a woman, it was you who were unchaste and unclean! Tomorrow, Lord Zhang will send someone to take you there. After you have cleaned up everything, bring this debt collector along as well.
