308 Respect Between Brothers
Mo Ruyue was about to answer when she suddenly frowned slightly. Then, a familiar voice came from outside the door. âDa Bao, Er Bao, Tang Tang? Is anyone home?â
âMadam Wang? What is she doing here?â
Mo Ruyue didnât say anything, but Aunt Liuâs brows furrowed tightly.
Her words were filled with contempt and disdain, unlike the Qin familyâs second branch daughter-in-law, Madam Wang, who had a little sympathy and pity in the past. Now, she couldnât find even half of it.
âAunt Liu, from what youâve said, it seems that you have some opinions about Madam Wang?â
Mo Ruyue had not been in the village for a long time. She had gone on a few long trips before. After that, she had to treat the mother and daughter of the Bai family. She had to leave early and return late every day. She had been at home for less than one-third of the time. Of course, she did not know what had happened in the village.
âLady Qin, you donât know this, but ever since old Lady Qin went to prison, Madam Wang and her two children have had a hard time. Qin Xu isnât a good person. Heâs not at home all day long. When he comes back, heâll ask for money. When he canât get it, heâll rob the family and sell it.â
âHe didnât even give a single cent of the money he earned from selling it to the mother and children. He only cared about his own happiness. I donât know what happened to Madam Wang, but she went to the village chief and cried outside the house every day, saying that he, the patriarch, didnât care about anything and let Qin Xu bully her and her children. If he couldnât call Qin Xu back, she would hang herself in front of the house with the two children!â
When Aunt Liu said this, she deliberately strangled her neck with her hand and stuck out her tongue, making her look like a hanged ghost with her eyes rolling back. The babies couldnât help laughing.
âAfter the village chief found Qin Xu, Madam Wang went crazy and wanted to cut him with a knife. She said that if he didnât give her money, the whole family would die together. Qin Xu originally wanted to solve his problems by beating people up like before, but he didnât expect to be beaten up by Madam Wang. In the end, he was scared and ran away after throwing a little money.â
âSince then, Madam Wang went to the village head every two or three days to make a fuss. They asked for money when they ran out of money, and they asked for food when they ran out of food. Tsk tsk, theyâve really thrown all their face away. Whereâs the gentle, virtuous, and weak spirit that they used to have?â
âNow, whoever in the village doesnât say anything about her is a shrew. Just look, sheâs angry that your family has so many good things, so sheâs here to cry and sell her poor goods!â
Aunt Liu said this without caring that there was someone waiting outside the courtyard. Mo Ruyue, of course, did not care about Madam Wang. Back then, she pretended to be a little white flower and allowed her two children to bully her five babies, one in the open and one in the dark. Mo Ruyue had not settled the score with her yet.
She paid attention to the babiesâ reactions and found that they also looked impatient. Madam Wang must have come to visit when she was not at home. She wondered if the babies had given her something.
She had never heard the babies mention this before, but it didnât matter. She had plenty of time to ask them later.
âIs there anyone at home? Iâm coming in.â
Madam Wang would not back out just because no one answered. It was best if no one answered, so that she could come in and take a look.
Everyone in the village knew that the Qin family had many good things in their big house. Even if she just randomly picked a few, it would be enough for her family to spend the new year.
âGet out.â
Suddenly, a cold voice came from the kitchen, and then something flew out from it and hit Madam Wangâs head.
Although the thing was soft on her forehead, it still hurt when she was hit.
âAiyo, my head!â
Madam Wang screamed and fell to the ground.
When she saw the person who came out of the kitchen, she immediately cried out in her heart.
Why didnât Mo Ruyue enter the city today?
Didnât they say that she had been going to the city every day to treat the Bai family members of Guanglai building? Moreover, it was the kind that could not be stopped.
She had precisely calculated that Mo Ruyue wouldnât be here today, so she came to ask for money. The Qin family had so many good things that they wouldnât be able to use up even if they ate and used them for a few lifetimes. What was wrong with giving a little to the three of them through the cracks of her fingers?
Back then, when they had not split up, if it was not for the fact that she still cared about family ties and left more work for Da Bao to do, then gave him a bowl of food to feed his four siblings, the five of them would have long starved to death!
Even if it was to repay the five of them, she should at least show some appreciation.
Not only had Madam Wang been corrupted, but her mood had also been seriously distorted.
It was clear that the first household was not living well, and she was the one who was giving out alms and pity, but now it had suddenly changed. The first householdâs days were getting better and better, and she, had to live with the image of a shrew.
When she first married into the Qin family, who didnât praise her as a beautiful and gentle wife? but now?
The more Madam Wang thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt. She didnât even care about her fear, but she didnât notice that her twisted expression had fallen into Mo Ruyueâs eyes.
âWhat are you doing here?â
Mo Ruyue walked over and looked down at Madam Wang from above. He asked in a cold tone, and there was no trace of a smile on his face.
âS-sister-in-law, youâre home.â
Madam Wang squeezed out a smile. As she greeted Mo Ruyue, her mind spun quickly, trying to come up with a countermeasure.
If Mo Ruyue was at home, todayâs Plan might not work out.
âWeâve already separated. Iâm not worthy of the title âsister-in-lawâ.â
Mo Ruyue wouldnât fall for her tricks. It was best not to use this kind of tricks in front of her.
âHow could that be? Although weâve split up, Big Brother is still Big Brother, and Big Sister-in-law is still Big Sister-in-law. Even if Big Brother is no longer here, youâre still Big Brotherâs widow, so naturally, I have to respectfully call you Big Sister-in-law.â
Before Madam Wang married, she had also learned how to write from her elder brother for a few days. She had boasted that she was more talented than the average woman and was always eloquent when she spoke.
However, she was half a bottle of vinegar. She spoke as if she didnât ask anything and didnât know anything. It was just that the people of the Qin Village were less educated and were intimidated by her. However, it also didnât work in front of Mo Ruyue.
âWhat do you want? If you donât have anything to say, then get lost.â
Today was a rare good day. Mo Ruyueâs mood was originally extremely good, but someone just had to bring bad luck to her door and make her uncomfortable. Then, donât blame her for not giving her face.
Madam Wang had been told to âget lostâ twice in a row. No matter how thick-skinned she was, her face was now flushed red. She bit her lips hard for a long time before she managed to squeeze out a sentence.
âSister-in-law, did I offend you? Why are you so ruthless? If Big Brother was still here, he would not allow you to do this. Heâs the most respectful brother, so why are you treating me like this when heâs not here?â
When Mo Ruyue heard this, he sneered. âThatâs called being respectful to brothers.â
Madam Wangâs face turned red from Mo Ruyueâs scolding. She used the action of tucking her messy hair behind her ears to slightly cover up her embarrassment.
