Chapter 340 Slander
After Zhu Wanru finished speaking, she walked to Moya with a serious face, looked at her with sadness, and said to her:
"Da Ya..."
"Comrade Zhu, you probably don't know yet, Moya has changed her name for many days!" Xia Qingxi, who was standing aside, reminded her.
After listening to what Zhu Wanru just said, Xia Qingxi had a premonition that she was going to find a reason to justify herself.
The reason why she said this was to remind her that the stepdaughter in front of her was no longer like before, and she could control her at will. At the same time, she also told the people around her that Zhu Wanru, the stepmother, did not care about Moya as much as she seemed to care.
"Oh, I'm used to calling you Daya." Zhu Wanru smiled very naturally, without any guilt. She looked at Moya and said,
"Moya, your father went to help you quit the group today. I know you feel bad and even resent your father. We didn't want to tell you about this at first, for fear that you would have a psychological burden. But you misunderstood your father like this, and I feel sad for him..."
When she said this, her eyes revealed an extremely sad look, and her sadness was mixed with grievance.
After she was in the right mood, she continued,
"When you first came to the army, you fell seriously ill. Your father and I stayed in the hospital for several days. When it was the worst, you had difficulty speaking and breathing. Later, under our care, you gradually got better. You must remember this..."
"I was sick when I came here." Moya answered truthfully, and immediately explained,
"But I remember it very clearly. The doctor said that it was caused by the unfamiliar climate."
In these years, this stepmother pretended to be a good person and weak in front of others, but she treated herself harshly and suppressed herself at home. Moya had long understood her character and actions.
So when she heard what she said, Mo Ya immediately realized that she wanted to use her poor health as an excuse to justify their decision to let her leave the group, so she explained it immediately to prevent her from misleading everyone.
"We only let the doctor tell you that to ease your mind." Zhu Wanru looked at Mo Ya sincerely, and then continued:
"In fact, you had myocarditis at the time." At this point, she looked at the people around her and said:
"You may not know about this disease. People with myocarditis cannot overwork. Have we asked you to do any heavy work in these years?
You were admitted to the art troupe, and we were all happy for you. However, the art troupe has to train every day and perform in other places from time to time. Your father was concerned about your health and was afraid that you could not bear it, so he helped you to withdraw from the troupe.
Your father has been hiding this from you for many years. "I didn't want you to feel inferior because of your poor health, but I didn't expect you to misinterpret his meaning like this. Do you know that every word you said just now hurt him so much?"
Xia Qingying didn't expect Zhu Wanru to be so good at making excuses. The reason she gave sounded flawless to outsiders, and even established the image of a great father in everyone's mind. What a silver tongue she has!
In order to prevent everyone from being misled, Xia Qingxi hurriedly stepped forward to explain:
"Comrade Zhu, you just said that Mo Ya had myocarditis and can't do heavy work, right? But as far as I know, it was Mo Ya who cooked, washed dishes, and took care of the children in your family over the years. Later, when your son grew up and no longer needed anyone to take care of him, Mo Ya not only had to do housework, but also had to go to the hospital to work to supplement the family income. Isn't this contradictory to what you just said about not being able to do heavy work?"
"Yes, the last time Mo Ya and I had dinner at Qingxi's house, we met Mo Zhenzhen on the way back. Mo Zhenzhen scolded Mo Ya in public for not going home to cook, and said that she should be a slave in your family." Xia Guyu on the side also hurriedly stepped forward and said.
After hearing the "accusations" of the two, Zhu Wanru was not panicked at all. She looked at everyone and continued to explain:
"Mo Ya is indeed very hardworking. In order to reduce our burden, she always rushes to do housework at home. I think these jobs are not tiring, and I am worried that she will think I treat her as an outsider, so I did not stop her." Having said this, she turned her head to look at Mo Ya on the side, and continued sincerely:
"If you also think that I am abusing you and exploiting your labor, I will never let you do these things in the future."
After listening to Zhu Wanru's words, everyone seemed to understand her a little, and even felt that she was a good stepmother.
Seeing her confuse right and wrong and being so shameless and hypocritical, Mo Ya who was standing aside couldn't bear it anymore. The grievances, disappointments and anger that had been accumulated in her heart for many years burst out at this moment. She stepped in front of Zhu Wanru and said loudly:
"You are talking nonsense, I am not sick at all! These years, I have lived at home like a farmhand, being ordered around by you. You don't treat me as a family member at all. My father beat me because I refused to give up my place in the art troupe to Mo Zhenzhen!"
"You are rebellious. How can you talk to your mother!" Mo Jianguo who was standing aside saw that Mo Ya dared to contradict Zhu Wanru, and immediately scolded her loudly.
"She is not my mother. My mother was plotted against by you and has died in the countryside." At this point, Mo Ya became emotional. She looked at Mo Jianguo and questioned loudly:
"You were with this woman before my mother and I divorced, right? If not, how could Mo Zhenzhen be only nine months younger than me..."
"Nonsense!" Mo Jianguo's face suddenly changed, and he shouted, interrupting Mo Ya's words:
"Mo Daya, are you crazy? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will beat you to death!" As he spoke, his hand was already raised.
Zhu Wanru on the side immediately stepped forward, held him, shook her head at him calmly, then turned to look at Mo Ya, with a look of great pain:
"How could Zhenzhen be only 9 months younger than you? It is clearly written in the household registration book that she is almost 2 years younger than you. You can't slander us just because you are angry! We took you to our side when you were 12 years old and took care of you for 12 years with all our heart. You are so heartbroken to say this now."
"The birthday on the household registration book is not Mo Zhenzhen's real birthday..." Mo Ya wanted to argue, but was interrupted by Mo Jianguo again. Looking at his dry face, his eyes became sinister:
"That's enough, Mo Daya. If you feel that staying in this house is unfair to you, I can send you back to your hometown right now."
These words were clearly threatening. Mo Ya knew that after such a mess today, she would definitely not be able to live in the Mo family. She raised her head with an unprecedented toughness on her face:
"You don't have to rush me, I will leave! I don't want to stay in that house anymore!"
After hearing her words, Zhu Wanru on the side quickly took her hand and said:
"Why are you saying such angry words? We are living well at home, where are you going? Your father beat you yesterday because of those disobedient words you said. You called me a vixen and Zhenzhen a bastard, but you also called your father heartless and ungrateful, and said he would die a miserable death. Who wouldn't be angry after hearing you say these words?"
