Chapter 1429 - 1424: So, It Was You Who Did This!
Mu Xiangxiang’s face looked extremely unpleasant, and her body was still somewhat weak. She raised her hand, pointing at Aunt Zhang, and said, "You better stop spewing nonsense here. What are you saying? Do you believe I’ll tear your mouth apart!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, her voice was unusually hoarse, lacking any intimidation.
Aunt Zhang, seeing Mu Xiangxiang so agitated, was naturally pleased.
"Xiangxiang girl, Auntie is doing this for your own good! I’m not like your sister Mu Zhenzhen who keeps everything from you and snatches everything from you.
I heard that your sister is preparing more than a dozen taels of Silver as a dowry to marry into the Sun family!"
"You..." Mu Xiangxiang was trembling all over in anger.
Unfortunately, she just recovered from a serious illness, and for these few hours of sunshine each day, it’s Mu Dashan who comes to carry her out so that she could see the light of day again.
Otherwise, she would have to stay in her medicine-smelling room all the time.
"I know you are upset, but there is nothing to be done. Isn’t Mu Zhenzhen better than you!"
Aunt Zhang was determined, and today she would make sure to enrage Mu Xiangxiang to death.
Ultimately, to the point of breathing her last!
"You..."
"Xiangxiang girl, do you want Auntie to take revenge for you? Rest assured, if you give Auntie some benefits, she promises to go through fire and water for you, whoever you want to deal with, just say the word!"
Aunt Zhang deliberately twisted Mu Xiangxiang’s meaning.
"You... get out of here!"
Mu Xiangxiang pointed toward the direction outside the courtyard, indicating for Aunt Zhang to leave.
Where would Aunt Zhang go willingly? She clearly felt Mu Xiangxiang was nearly driven to death by anger.
"Xiangxiang girl, life isn’t done this way. I know you are uncomfortable, but you can’t pin everything on me, right? If you want to blame, you should go blame that annoying sister of yours."
"Liu Jinhua..."
"Liu Jinhua..."
Unable to drive Aunt Zhang away, Mu Xiangxiang called out Liu’s name.
Mrs. Liu was initially in the kitchen busy cooking for the students from the academy, and upon hearing the shouting, she hurriedly came out from the kitchen.
Once out, she saw Mu Xiangxiang, eyes red and face distorted with rage, glaring fiercely at Aunt Zhang, who had somehow arrived.
"Auntie, what are you doing?" Mrs. Liu asked Aunt Zhang politely.
Only to be scolded by Mu Xiangxiang, "Why are you being polite with her? Get this old hag out of here, I don’t want to see her, I want her gone!"
In a fit of anger, the reclining chair where Mu Xiangxiang lay made a violent cracking noise.
It sounded like it was about to collapse at any moment.
"Xiangxiang, isn’t this inappropriate? Since she came as a guest, how about I invite Aunt Zhang to sit in the main room, so she doesn’t disturb you?"
Mrs. Liu couldn’t bring herself to chase guests away when they came to visit.
"Alright then, Liu Jinhua, you’ve grown wings to disobey me. I will definitely tell my mom that you can’t take care of me and you want me to die. By then, your whole family will be doomed!"
In her daily convalescence, Mu Xiangxiang was like a living corpse.
Her heart had long accumulated full of negative energy, and this time, she was completely venting.
Mu Xiangxiang’s words made Mrs. Liu’s face turn red with embarrassment.
However, what Mu Xiangxiang said was true. If she offended Mu Xiangxiang, the fourth house would certainly not be able to stay in the county.
Helplessly, she could only focus on Aunt Zhang, hoping Aunt Zhang would leave on her own.
Aunt Zhang was not someone easy to deal with, since she came with the purpose of ensuring chaos in the Old Mu Family, she wouldn’t just leave.
"Look, Da Jiang’s wife, look at the way this shrew talks to you?
The Old Mu family’s people are all off enjoying themselves, leaving you alone to care for this shrew. Not only is she ungrateful, but she also insults you right in front of me, an outsider, not treating you like a human being.
If it were me, I wouldn’t be so kind to this shrew. Since she’s now immobile, why not starve her for a few days, beat her a few times, and see if she behaves."
Aunt Zhang kept sowing discord.
Mu Xiangxiang couldn’t bear it anymore, struggling to get up from the reclining chair to skin Aunt Zhang alive.
Mrs. Liu went to support her but was pushed hard, falling on the muddy ground.
Aunt Zhang, seeing this, patted her bottom and said, "Little girl, I’m done playing with you. Just wait and watch your sister marry your man and have kids!"
After saying this, Aunt Zhang quickly left.
Mu Xiangxiang cursed behind her.
But no matter how she cursed, it was to no avail.
Aunt Zhang quickly disappeared without a trace.
Once Aunt Zhang left, Mu Xiangxiang had a sour expression as she questioned Mrs. Liu, "Why didn’t you teach that old hag a lesson just now? Mu Zhenzhen? Is it true that she and Sun Dali have a thing?"
Mu Xiangxiang recalled the past few days when the village gossips came before her daily, talking about all sorts of things.
At one moment saying the Sun family was hosting a wedding, at another congratulating her.
She didn’t understand a few days ago, but today she finally did.
Turns out, they were all laughing at her, Mu Xiangxiang.
"Xiangxiang, leave it at that, given your poor health, don’t... don’t bother with it!"
Mrs. Liu advised Mu Xiangxiang against getting angry.
"Who do you think you are to talk to me like this? Whatever I ask, you answer, or don’t blame me if I’m not polite!"
Mu Xiangxiang glared at Mrs. Liu angrily.
Just then, a gentle yet authoritative male voice sounded.
"She is the one who takes care of you every day, washing your clothes, cooking your meals, cleaning your waste!
Xiangxiang, in your current situation, do you still want to continue being unreasonable and headstrong?"
Mu Dashan’s brows furrowed deeply.
If he hadn’t heard the commotion at the Old Mu Family’s main house, he wouldn’t have come over.
If he hadn’t come, he wouldn’t have heard his sister treating the fourth sister-in-law, Xiaxia’s mother, in such a way.
He had always known Xiangxiang was thoughtless, but never imagined that Xiaxia’s mother, who had taken care of her for so long, would still be treated this way by her.
"I’m just being unreasonable, I’m just not letting her live well, what can you do?" Mu Xiangxiang remained in a manner that wouldn’t spare a dying breath.
"You..." For the first time, Mu Dashan found himself capable of such anger.
"Fine, don’t you want to know if what Aunt Zhang said is true? Then I tell you, Zhenzhen is indeed going to marry Sun Dali.
But isn’t this what you brought upon yourself? Back when Dali handed you the divorce letter, I was there. How did you humiliate him?
Shouldn’t he be marrying someone else? I tell you, Xiangxiang, starting from today, I, Mu Dashan, will no longer come over to carry you out to the yard for sunbathing. Your own issues, deal with them yourself!"
After saying this, Mu Dashan told Mrs. Liu, "Xiaxia’s mother, there’s no need for you to be exploited by her.
From today on, don’t do anything for her, whether she starves to death, or is suffocated to death by waste! Anyway, don’t manage her. It’s time she faced some consequences!"
This was the heaviest thing Mu Dashan had ever said in his life, indicating he couldn’t hold back anymore.
