I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

133 A Life-or-Death Relationship

Mo Ruyue didn’t want to argue with her. She just looked at her and said, “I’m not afraid of my shadow being crooked, but there are always some people who want to take the opportunity to cause trouble. It’s really annoying, so let’s go to the government and make things clear, and save trouble in the future.”

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the surrounding villagers and said directly, “If I hear any more rumors about my innocence, I won’t let her off easily. If you don’t believe me, you can try!”

Mo Ruyue’s eyes were cold. The determination and warning in her voice, coupled with her serious expression, made everyone at the scene clearly realize that she was a woman of her word and would definitely do what she said.

“Aiya, when it’s possible to forgive someone, one should forgive them.”

“It’s all a misunderstanding. It’s fine if it’s resolved. Why bother?”

“It’s not like we’re unreasonable. Who can spread such unreasonable things around, right?”

The crowd roared with all kinds of voices again. However, this time, no one dared to say that Mo Ruyue had committed adultery. Seeing that the fire caused by Qin Shi was about to burn them, and Mo Ruyue had a temperament of not giving up until one of them died, who would dare to be stubborn?

Everyone was just trying to keep things at peace. At this point, no one wanted to make a big deal out of it.

However, Mo Ruyue was not someone who would let others come to her door and make trouble. She stared at Qin Shi and repeated word by word, “&Quot; this matter won’t end like this. I must have an explanation. Since you dared to come here and cause trouble, you must be prepared to pay the price. &Quot;

After she finished speaking, she turned around and prepared to return to the courtyard. She did not intend to continue to be entangled with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

“Eldest sister-in-law, can’t you just forgive mother this once for eldest brother’s sake? If mother goes to prison, then our Qin Qingyuan and Qin Qingfei will never be able to raise their heads in this life. Even your babies won’t have any good reputation.”

Madam Wang immediately became anxious.

She did not really care about Qin Shi’s safety. She was more concerned about her son and daughter. If they had a grandmother who was in jail, what would happen to Qin Qingyuan’s future in the Imperial examinations? What about Qingfei’s marriage?

When she thought of this, her heart was on fire. As long as she could make Mo Ruyue give up the idea of seeing an official, she was willing to do anything.

Mo Ruyue stopped and turned to look at Madam Wang. With a faint smile, she said, “When old Lady Qin came to catch them in the act, did she ever think that not only would she ruin my innocence, but my five babies would also be humiliated in the future? Don’t give what you don’t want from others. Your double standard face really disgust me!”

She was determined to teach Qin Shi a lesson, and at the same time, to intimidate all the villagers present.

If she were to let Qin Shi off lightly like this, then there was no need to wait until tomorrow. The rumor that she, Mo Ruyue, had openly brought an adulterer home to have an affair would spread to all the towns and villages within a hundred miles. It could even give rise to countless versions of the rumor.

If she waited until then to report to the officials to refute the rumors, it would be too late. Even if the officials could clear her name, the rumors rooted in the hearts of the people were the truth. She could forget about clearing her name for the rest of her life.

“Mo Ruyue! I’m sorry. I was impulsive and confused. Please forgive me. Do you really want me to kneel down to you or force me to die before you’ll be satisfied?”

Qin Shi also finally realized that this time, Mo Ruyue was no longer just a verbal threat. Instead, she was seriously preparing to report her to the government.

Now, she couldn’t care about her face as a mother-in-law. She immediately apologized and begged for mercy, hoping that Mo Ruyue would let her off.

However, it was too late.

This time, it wasn’t like dividing the property, nor was it like every conflict between them before. In this feudal society, a woman’s reputation and integrity were even more important than her life.

Now, the Qin family had rushed to the door to “catch the adulterers” and accused Mo Ruyue of adultery. If she confirmed this crime, then according to the law, Mo Ruyue would have to hang her broken shoes and parade through the streets like a wooden donkey. If she was lynching according to the clan rules, she would either be drowned in a pig cage or killed by rocks.

The Qin Family clearly wanted Mo Ruyue’s life. Now, they were still thinking that they would be forgiven with just an apology. It was simply wishful thinking!

Mo Ruyue looked at the panic-stricken Qin Shi and shook her head slightly. “It’s not that I’m forcing you, you’re the one who’s courting death. You should’ve known when you came to me that once you “confirmed” my crime, I’d be dead.”

“You forced me to die first, and now you’re saying that I forced you? Do you still want your old face?”

She paused and looked at Madam Wang again. “If I were you, I’d take her home now and think about where to find a good litigation master to prepare for the next lawsuit, instead of wasting time here pleading for mercy.

“When you made that decision, you were already in a life-and-death situation with me. Why would you still ask for mercy? Now, while I’m still talking, I’ll let you leave safely. Otherwise, if you piss me off, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

After saying this, Mo Ruyue coldly glanced at the surrounding villagers and went into the courtyard without looking back.

At this time, there were many people gathered at her door, but at this time, it was completely silent.

Everyone knew that Mo Ruyue had really been angered and she really didn’t intend to let it go.

Juan Zi, who was originally a little talkative, wanted to take this matter as a joke and spread it out to listen to the fun. But when she saw Mo Ruyue’s unforgiving appearance towards the Qin Family, she couldn’t help but associate it with herself.

If she found out that she was the one who spread the rumors, would the same thing happen to her?

Mo Ruyue closed the door of the Qin Family, the Wang clan, and the villagers who were watching the show. Her door was still open, but no one dared to make a noise outside for fear of angering her.

She walked to the door of the classroom and stopped when she heard Du Zhongheng’s question.

The atmosphere inside was just right, so it was better to wait before going in.

As they waited, another hour passed. Seeing that it was already noon, Mo Ruyue decided to make some wild game to entertain the guests. She couldn’t let the guests come from far away and leave on an empty stomach. There was no reason to treat the guests like this.

When she opened the door this morning, there were some wild rabbits and pheasants piled outside. There were even two wild boar piglets. Without a doubt, they were sent down by the wolves in the mountains.

She didn’t know how the wolves with CDV were doing. The big wolf might have survived, but the two little wolves might be in danger.

Mo Ruyue calculated that if she could decide to let Du Zhongheng be the teacher of enlightenment today, she would be able to free herself to do things tomorrow. At that time, she would go into the mountains to take a look. If she met that Wolf Pack again, she would take a look at the situation. It would be worthy of their gratitude.

Since there were ready-made ingredients at home, Mo Ruyue did not hesitate to choose to make the two wild boar Cubs into roasted suckling pigs. One would be eaten at home, the other half would be sent to the Liu family, and the other half would be taken away by Du Zhongheng.
