After finishing their midnight snack, Lu Yuanfeng and Mu Shuangshuang returned ho and imdiately saw Mrs. Li standing in the courtyard, with a shadow quickly darting past.
Mu Shuangshuang had sharp eyes, and even though that person ran quickly, she still saw who it was.
Mu Danian.
Mu Shuangshuang was stunned, she even suspected she saw it wrong.
But then she thought of Mu Danian’s reputation in Er Gui Village as a female friend, always scheming to catch various won’s attention, and she was relieved.
However, Mrs. Li was her second aunt, a relative from her mother’s family. Mrs. Li could be vicious, could be evil, but she couldn’t do sothing so disgraceful.
"Second Aunt, so late, what are you doing here? I just saw a shadow running away, do you recognize it?"
Mrs. Li’s heart trembled, her heart jumped to her throat.
But she didn’t believe Mu Shuangshuang saw anything, so she loudly refuted.
"Are you blind? How co I didn’t see any shadow?"
"Second Aunt from the Yu Family, I also saw it just now," Lu Yuanfeng said.
"Oh, so you two are falsely accusing of hiding a man, huh? Go on, call your second uncle and let him kill !"
Mrs. Li inserted her hands at her waist, speaking fiercely to Mu Shuangshuang.
"Second Aunt, why are you so agitated? I just casually asked, it’s for your safety, and I didn’t say the shadow was a man. It might have been a dog or sothing."
——
"Stop pretending here, don’t think I don’t know. You and your mother are the sa, only caring about the sixth branch, not at all concerned about the wellbeing of our second branch.
I, Li Juhua, never liked people like you who are biased to the bone, you better not provoke ."
Mrs. Li thought about the 200 silver coins for the gifts written by Yu Si Niang, and felt a surge of anger throughout her body, wishing she could tear Mu Shuangshuang apart.
No, she had to discuss this with her husband. Why should the sixth branch have better treatnt, they are all people?
"Second Aunt, you’re being unreasonable now. How are and my mother biased? Didn’t my mother send so things over to the second branch a few days ago?"
Mu Shuangshuang believed she had sent everything she should to each branch of the family.
As for the gift money, isn’t it customary to exchange them?
Before when Yu Si Niang married, she only gave fifteen coins, and when Li Juhua went to her house, she wouldn’t give much either!
Even though her family wrote 200 coins as gift money today, Yu Liulang would return it in the future.
If Mu Shuangshuang wanted to give soone a favor, she wouldn’t do it this way.
The reason for writing 200 coins was because she was helping Yu Liulang, and Yu Liulang gave her a lot of money, which she definitely couldn’t accept, so she put it all as the gift money.
"Hmph, can’t be bothered to talk to you, I’m going to sleep!"
Mrs. Li coldly snorted, showing she didn’t want to engage further with Mu Shuangshuang.
But her eyes were still lingering towards the direction Mu Danian left, unwilling to budge, saying she would go to sleep, yet her feet didn’t move an inch.
Clearly, she was hoping Mu Danian would co back.
Mu Shuangshuang caught on to her intent, knowing deep down that tonight Mrs. Li must not et Mu Danian, and Mu Danian would be leaving by tomorrow.
By then, when she couldn’t see him, even if Li Juhua had vile thoughts, she wouldn’t be able to act on them.
"Second Aunt, still not sleeping? Waiting for soone? Do you want Shuangshuang to wait with you? I have nothing to do anyway. If not, I could bring out Da Huang to accompany you. I guarantee no one could approach you!"
Mu Shuangshuang wore an expression of willingness to wait with her, while Mrs. Li was seething with anger, clenching her fists, just short of hitting soone.
"You wretched girl, just wait, you’ll pay for this sooner or later!"
Mu Shuangshuang nodded with a smile. "Yes, I’m so nice, even if there’s karma, it should be good karma for , like earning a few hundred taels of silver?
But people really can’t make any mistake, if not caught it’s fine, but if caught, they might end up beaten to death or crippled. If it’s so scandalous affair, they might even be drowned in a pig cage."
Mu Shuangshuang was insinuating, and Mrs. Li felt that Shuangshuang’s words were ant for her.
She was so angry her face turned green, but thinking of tonight, if anything really happened between her and that Mu Danian, she might really be drowned in a pig cage.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li beca a bit fearful and ran off, caring about nothing else.
Mu Shuangshuang chuckled softly, thinking that Mrs. Li wasn’t so foolish after all, at least she understood the situation when facing those threatening words.
However, this matter couldn’t end here.
Mu Danian showed complete disregard for the Old Yu Family, even daring to ss with the Yu Family’s daughter-in-law.
