Chapter 42: Too Much Bullying
Hu Ronger covered her face in confusion. She didn't expect that Hu Xiner, who was a soft persimmon, would actually stand up!
After being slapped in the face by someone she originally looked down upon, she became even more furious after realizing what was happening and was about to fight back: "Ah! I want you dead!"
Mu Qing rushed over to block her, and at the same time pulled Hu Xin'er behind him with one hand, saying in a very cold tone: "If you still want to replace body parts, you can try!"
His face turned cold, and not only was the eldest sister scared away, but even the onlookers retreated one after another.
"Oh my god, I didn't expect Mu Lang to have such a fierce side."
But Mother Hu refused to give up: "Why? Mu Qing, do you still want to beat your mother-in-law?"
Logically speaking, she is Hu Xiner's mother and naturally has the upper hand.
"Haven't you already kicked Xin'er out of the house?" Unexpectedly, Mu Qing refused to give in.
"There's a bond between mother and daughter, and you're just an outsider after all. Don't meddle in our family affairs." His aura was too strong. Mother Hu looked at Hu Xiner and put on a hypocritical face again.
"Xin'er, you are a filial child. Do you really want to make me die of anger here?"
Hu Xiner looked around. Except for those close to her who were worried, everyone else had an expression of watching the show with a look of watching spectators.
She suppressed her nausea and asked, "Mrs. Hu, what were you thinking when Hu Rong'er tried to kill me?"
"She's your biological sister, how could she beat you to death?" Hu's mother stamped her feet. "It was just a joke between children."
"Little kid?" Hu Xin'er thought it was ridiculous. "Open your eyes and look at her. She's already in her 20s! Is she a giant baby?"
Before Hu's mother could argue, she continued, "Since I was little, my eldest sister has been bullying me and treating me like a slave. Where were you back then?"
"You kid, you also remember your own sister's vengeance?" Hu's mother said angrily.
But when she asked Hu Xiner to kneel down to her elder sister just now, she didn't use this tone.
Hu Xin'er no longer had any expectations of her double standards.
"Mrs. Hu, you're still trying to act like a mother and lecture me. I'm telling you, that's impossible. Hu Ronger wanted to sell me to the landlord's idiot son, and when I refused, she instigated you to accuse me of adultery and drown me in a pond!"
She turned sideways and lifted her sleeve to show everyone the old scar: "With all the distinguished guests here today, I just want to explain this matter thoroughly."
She pointed at her eldest sister and said, "Hu Rong'er, all that fat on her body was grown by sucking the blood of her own sister!"
Everyone was shocked. They had long felt that there was something wrong with Hu's mother's logic.
Hu Xin'er, as described by Hu's mother, is insidious and cunning, but she is actually skinny, and Hu Rong'er is even fat and looks like a monster.
Hu Ronger's fat body is the ironclad evidence of her bullying her sister!
Seeing that she had no way to refute her argument, Mother Hu lowered her head and said, "Your elder sister gained weight even by drinking cold water. I feel sorry for you..."
"Stop lying." Hu Xin'er pointed at her mother again, "From childhood to adulthood, in every single thing, when have you ever protected me? Are you blind and can't see? No!"
Emotions were brewing, and the painful memories of the original owner made her tears flow uncontrollably: "You have been indulging her all along. Even if she broke my legs and wanted to burn me to death, you would make me kneel down and apologize before you would forgive me!"
"That's too much! Today is Boss Hu's big day. How can a mother behave like this?"
The shill in the crowd suddenly realized that they should also speak up for Boss Hu at this time.
These words had been buried deep in the original owner's heart. When Mother Hu heard them, she was deeply moved and cried, "My son, you have suffered a great injustice."
Mrs. Li sighed, "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place. I think she has repented."
Erdong sneered: "If she could change, she would have repented long ago."
Mrs. Li's words also reflected the thoughts of most people present. In this era, filial piety is more important than anything else. As long as parents know how to repent, their children must forgive them unconditionally.
Hu Xin'er was unmoved. Didn't the original owner ever think of resisting when she was young? Yes!
But every time she resisted, Hu's mother would cry and say she felt sorry for her, and after crying, she would continue to be partial to her.
The eldest sister bullied the original owner's body, while Hu's mother wore away the original owner's character, which was more deadly.
The tragic fate of the original owner was more her responsibility, because it was her unreasonable favoritism that brought up the unreasonable Hu Ronger.
"What's the point of you crying now?"
Hu Xiner looked at her mother and felt so tired, but she still had to solve the problems of the original owner's family.
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll never have peace in my life.
Mu Qing raised his sleeve and wiped her tears: "I'll take care of the rest."
He looked at Hu's mother coldly: "A truly loving elder would never throw dirty water on Xin'er when she is hosting a banquet."
No matter how much Hu's mother plays the victim, her behavior of bringing Hu Ronger to cause trouble cannot be washed away.
Mother Hu cried quite pitifully: "Son-in-law, even if Rong'er was at fault first, she is Xin'er's sister after all!"
Before he could finish his words, Mu Qing shuddered in fear.
At this moment, Mu Qing's aura was fully open, and he immediately suppressed all the discussions.
He said bluntly, "I only have eyes for Hu Xin'er. Everyone else is shit! A mother who wants to drown her daughter in a pond doesn't deserve to be called a mother!"
In just a few words, he hit the nail on the head, leaving Hu's mother speechless.
Hu Xiner looked up in shock, forgetting to shed the tears she had pretended to cry.
Mu Qing is usually gentle and refined, but occasionally he curses, which is simply...
It's so cool! So cool!
She looked at Mu Qing with starry eyes.
"Don't be sad." Mu Qing rubbed her head. He felt so heartbroken when he saw Hu Xiner crying just now.
It was he who deliberately held a grand opening ceremony to make Hu Ronger find fault with him.
He also deliberately exposed this matter in front of everyone so that everyone would know in the future that whenever something happened to Hu Xiner, it was most likely Hu Ronger's doing.
But I still feel a little regretful for causing trouble to Hu Xiner and making her sad.
Seeing that she was in a weak position, Hu Ronger quietly moved her feet back.
As long as there is life, there will be no shortage of firewood. She must escape quickly, and when she has the chance, she will capture Mu Qing, Hu Xin'er and Erdong and sell them, especially Hu Xin'er, directly to a brothel!
"Stop!" Erdong shouted. Hu Ronger had just slandered him like that, and she hadn't learned her lesson yet!
Hu Rong'er lowered her head, her eyes filled with hatred: "We've beaten them, and we've vented our anger. Can you let us go now?"
"Erdong, close the door." Hu Xiner wiped away her tears, her eyes sharp.
"What are you going to do?" Hu Ronger couldn't help but shrink.
Hu Xin'er sneered, "I've returned the slap, but I haven't settled the arson yet."
Hu Ronger angrily said, "The fire isn't on, don't go too far. I know someone in the government office, and if you dare send me to see the officials, I'll make sure you're in big trouble!"
