Chapter 153 Lesson(2)_1
Mo Yonglu and Mo Yongfu, the two brothers, were uneasy and wanted to stay, but Old Man Mo had driven them out.
Back in their own living quarters, Mo Yonglu pulled Mo Erni, who was engaged in needlework, outside, making sure no one could overhear their conversation. With an ugly expression, he asked, "Was it you who instigated your aunt to go and damage the Yan girl’s fruit seedlings again?"
Mo Erni’s face changed, and without speaking, she effectively admitted to it.
Slap!
Mo Yonglu trembled with anger, unable to hold back, he slapped Mo Erni across the face, and growled, "What good does it do you to frame your own aunt and destroy the Yan girl’s fruit seedlings, huh?"
Mo Erni’s face was turned to one side from the slap. Clutching her quickly swelling cheek, she gazed coldly at Mo Yonglu. "If I can’t live well, I won’t let anyone else live well either."
Upon hearing this, Mo Yonglu, irate, raised his hand again wanting to slap her several more times, to slap her into sense, but seeing her swollen cheek, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.
"You’re just like Dani and San Ni; you’re even more favored by your grandparents than they are. They are able to live their lives properly, so why can’t you? Why can’t you be satisfied and stop causing trouble? Do you realize that if it weren’t for the Yan girl letting it go today, you would be the first to be sold to pay off debts!"
Mo Erni was startled, and then a hint of mockery flashed across her face. "Humph, our family was tricked by that lowlife, and yet you feel grateful towards her? There’s nothing more laughable than this."
"You have the nerve to talk! It’s because of you instigating your aunt to destroy the seedlings that the Yan girl had an excuse. Have you thought about it? Your aunt is part of our family; if she had done something to the Yan girl, the Yan girl would have blamed our entire family. Do you think you could escape from that?"
Mo Yonglu’s temples throbbed. How had he raised such an outrageous creature.
