Chapter 106: Suffering the consequences
Mrs. Mo was so angry that she fainted on the spot.
Although the Mo family left, Mo Yunwan stayed.
Nanny Jia sent for a doctor, and after acupuncture and medication, Mrs. Mo finally woke up in the middle of the night.
Shen Qingyu had been guarding the main courtyard. When he heard the doctor say that Mrs. Mo was just angry and not seriously injured, he immediately went into the house and knelt beside Mrs. Mo's bed: "Mother, I will marry Wan'er in this life. Please grant my wish!"
It was completely dark, and the house was brightly lit. Mrs. Mo was rubbing her temples, wondering if everything that happened before she fainted was a nightmare, when she was brought back to reality by Shen Qingyu's words.
Her chest rose and fell violently, causing the maids in the room to retreat far away. Then she said solemnly: "Why do you think I helped her get together with your eldest brother? She is not an easy person to deal with. You can't marry her."
"But on the way back, my son lost control of his emotions and took her virginity. If he doesn't take responsibility for her, isn't that forcing her to die?"
Shen Qingyu frowned, thinking of the lingering night and the way Mo Yunwan leaned softly in his arms, and his blood couldn't help but boil.
Although the news of marrying the ex-sister-in-law might not sound good, nothing happened between Wan'er and the eldest brother. As long as he can be with Wan'er for a long time, it doesn't matter if he suffers some criticism.
Shen Qingyu looked very happy with it, but Mrs. Mo was furious again.
This bitch actually seduced Yu'er to sleep with her on the street. No wonder she didn't dare to say a word when Cao Chunxi was showing off his power.
Mrs. Mo was filled with regret. She could no longer maintain her dignity and revealed the whole truth: "Silly son, she is no longer innocent. She didn't accidentally fall off the cliff while looking for your eldest brother. She was pregnant and ran away with an actor. She was lying to you."
As Mrs. Mo spoke, tears flickered in her eyes.
She felt secretly happy when she wanted Mo Yunwan to come back and fight Chunxi, but now that it was Shen Qingyu, she felt like a blunt knife cutting her flesh, it was so painful.
Although her Yu'er's qualifications are not very good, he is also a legitimate young master of a marquis's mansion. Even if he cannot marry a girl from a high-ranking family, he can at least choose a well-educated, gentle and quiet young lady. If he marries Mo Yunwan, wouldn't his life be over?
Mrs. Mo looked at Shen Qingyu expectantly, fully expecting that Shen Qingyu would be extremely disgusted with Mo Yunwan after knowing the truth. However, the next moment, she heard Shen Qingyu say, "Wan'er is right. In order to prevent us from being together, mother will use the most vicious words to attack her."
“…”
Mrs. Mo felt a sweet taste in her throat and almost vomited blood.
How could she have given birth to such a stupid and lustful boy?
"I'm your biological mother. When have I not been thinking about you all these years? How long have you known that bitch, and you already believed her instigation?"
Mrs. Mo was angry and sad, but Shen Qingyu corrected her, saying, "Wan'er is not a slut. She is innocent. When I was in Xuzhou, I had already investigated everything that had happened to her over the years. I even accompanied her to thank the famous doctor. And that night, Wan'er was so young and shy. I still have her Yuanpa here. I don't believe Wan'er's words, I believe the evidence!"
"What bullshit evidence? She was almost pregnant when she left. How could she still be a virgin?"
Mrs. Mo was so anxious that she completely lost her dignity, but all she got was a question from Shen Qingyu: "Do you have any evidence for what you said?"
“…”
Mrs. Mo choked.
As soon as Mo Yunwan escaped, Ning sent people to drive out all those who knew about it from Hanjing. All the maids and servants around Mo Yunwan were sold out. In order to prevent Shen Qingyuan from finding out, Mo even helped to deal with several people from the Marquis' Mansion. Now, apart from her, the second son and his wife, and Mo Yunwan, there is no other person who knows about this matter.
Where can she get the evidence?
Mrs. Mo's lips trembled, unable to utter a word. Shen Qingyu showed an expression of "as expected" and said sternly, "I'm going to marry Wan'er anyway. If you don't agree, I'll go on a hunger strike!"
Shen Qingyu strode away after saying this. Mrs. Mo couldn't hold it in any longer and spit out a mouthful of blood while lying on the bed. At this time, Shen Qingyue walked into the room: "Mom, are you okay?"
Seeing her second son, Mrs. Mo suddenly felt like she had seen a savior. She quickly wiped the blood from the corner of her lips, grabbed Shen Qingyue and said, "Yue'er, please persuade your brother. He has been bewitched by that bitch. You must not let him marry that bitch."
Shen Qingyue couldn't care less about Shen Qingyu right now. He lowered his voice and asked Mrs. Mo, "Brother has encountered many assassination attempts on his way back. Is this related to mother?"
Mrs. Mo was furious. When she heard this, she was stunned at first, but then it was as if her Ren and Du meridians were opened. She murmured in a low voice almost like a madman, "It must have been him. He is a vindictive person. Before, I just got people to incite the people to throw rotten eggs at him in the street, and he sent people to kick you into the toilet. This time, he must have deliberately harmed your third brother. I shouldn't have let him live until now!"
Mo's eyes, red from crying, burst out with intense hatred. Shen Qingyue quickly covered her mouth: "Mother, since this matter has nothing to do with you, please don't say such things again in the future. You are the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion. If you do something like killing your stepson, my third brother and I will be criticized for the rest of our lives."
What's more, Shen Qingyuan has the support of the Xiao family behind him.
Mrs. Mo blinked, tears rolling down her cheeks. Shen Qingyue then said, "I'll find a way to persuade Third Brother. Don't worry too much."
After leaving the main courtyard, Shen Qingyue did not return to his own courtyard, but went to the front door to wait.
Late at night, Shen Qingyuan finally returned from the palace.
Walking in the inky night, Shen Qingyuan's aura was cold, and he looked much more fierce than during the day.
Shen Qingyue went to meet him from a distance.
"Brother, you're back."
"Um."
Shen Qingyuan nodded, without pausing for a moment, and continued, "Congratulations, big brother, on successfully solving the case. Today, the Empress has issued an imperial decree ordering the Ministry of Rites to re-organize the wedding for big brother and his wife. I believe His Majesty will also promote big brother for this."
Shen Qingyuan did not respond and did not intend to reveal what he had talked about with His Majesty in the palace today.
Very cold.
Shen Qingyue didn't feel embarrassed and said to himself, "I've already asked mother, and she knows nothing about my eldest brother being assassinated on the road. Could you please show some mercy and let my third brother go?"
Like Mrs. Mo, Shen Qingyue also felt that Shen Qingyu's desire to marry Mo Yunwan was instigated by Shen Qingyuan.
Hearing this, Shen Qingyuan finally stopped.
He tilted his head slightly and glared at Shen Qingyue coldly. His cold eyes seemed to have substance and could see through everything.
Shen Qingyue unconsciously tensed up. After an unknown amount of time, he finally heard Shen Qingyuan say, "I know she doesn't have the guts to kill me."
"Then why did Big Brother let Big Sister-in-law say this in front of me?"
Shen Qingyue blurted out.
Shen Qingyuan raised the tip of his right eyebrow slightly and said calmly, "Because I want to remind you not to take the wrong path."
All the hairs on Shen Qingyue's body stood up at this moment.
Over the years, he had almost never had a conflict with Shen Qingyuan, and even often acted as a good guy in front of Shen Qingyuan. He thought he had behaved gently and peacefully enough, and that Shen Qingyuan had some brotherly feelings for him. He didn't expect that Shen Qingyuan had known his ambitions all along!
How cunning is this big brother?
