Capítulo 1620: Chapter 1620: Disgracing the Family Na
Old Lady Mo sported a snowy bald head, busy inside with the hustle and bustle. Due to burns, there were scar marks on her scalp that looked quite haunting. She heard Madam Ruan’s words and sneered dismissively to herself, “Giving that food to soone who disgraces the family and is unfaithful is worse than just letting eat it myself.”
Initially, they thought they could rely on their granddaughter, Mo Xiuzhi, to latch onto General Situ. From there, the Mo family would ride high, living the life of the rich. But who would have thought this shaless girl would beco pregnant with so other man’s child? The General, in his fury, kicked them out of the General’s Mansion.
Old Lady Mo was thoroughly disappointed in this granddaughter, believing her life was ruined, and she had no more value to the Mo family. Why waste such good food on her?
After having lost all her beautiful hair due to burns, Old Lady Mo, though healed, dared not leave the house. She was full of resentnt toward Madam Xie, that wretched woman. If she had the chance, she’d beat her up good for making her look like neither human nor ghost.
Old Lady Mo was still unaware that Madam Xie had beco quite ferocious, wielding a kitchen knife and chasing Old Master Mo all around the village. Otherwise, she might have dropped the idea.
The pot simred with fragrant pork, the aroma wafting outside the courtyard. Madam Ruan couldn’t help but swallow her saliva, her heart filled with resentnt towards Old Lady Mo. That selfish old crone, only thinking of enjoying herself and forgetting even her most beloved grandson at such a critical mont.
“Bang, bang, bang…!”
Madam Ruan knocked vigorously on the kitchen door, pleading, “Mother-in-law, don’t just eat by yourself. You should at least leave so for Jianjian! He’s your most beloved grandson.”
“This little bit of at, leave it for what? It’s not even enough for , this old woman, to eat. I won’t leave any.” The ruthless response ca from inside.
“Wife, what are you doing?”
Suddenly, Mo Daoyan’s voice ca from behind.
Madam Ruan turned around and saw her husband had returned. Her heart leaped for joy. She quickly looked behind him, but who knew, it was empty with no sign of their son.
“Where’s Jianjian!” At this mont, Madam Ruan was anxious about retrieving her jewelry, temporarily forgetting about Old Lady Mo’s selfishness.
“Didn’t see him. Auntie Fan at the village entrance said she saw him leaving on an ox cart.”
“What?”
“Wife, how about I go to town to find him?”
“Forget it, forget it. Even going to town, you might not find him.” Although Madam Ruan was heartbroken about the jewelry, since it was her son who took it, she felt a little better, and said helplessly, “He’s been lying at ho for so long, let him pawn it for so relaxation.”
“Wife, our family is so poor. We can’t spoil him anymore.”
“He already took it and you can’t find him. What else can we do?” Madam Ruan was filled with anger. After Mo Daoyan left, she checked the room’s belongings again and found several nice clothes missing. She guessed her son had taken them to town to pawn as well.
Those were her outfits; without them, she wouldn’t be able to wear anything decent to others’ wedding feasts in the future, filling Madam Ruan’s heart with rage.
Mo Daoyan kept jabbering on, “Those are the pieces of jewelry your mother left for you. Even when Jianjian had no silver to attend private school, you couldn’t bear to take them out. Now he’s taken them for extravagance, don’t you feel heartache?”
“What can heartache do? He’s already taken them.”
“Sigh! This son really doesn’t listen…!” Suddenly, Mo Daoyan stopped speaking. He sniffed strongly, catching the scent of at, and couldn’t help but lick his lips, saying involuntarily, “Slls so good.”
Then, he turned to Madam Ruan, salivating as he asked, “Wife, did you finish cooking the at?”
