Farm Girl's Manor

Zhao Fengnian was not foolish; he wouldn’t easily believe information from an unknown source. But what if this information was pecked out by several woodpeckers right in front of him on a piece of wood?

When he saw Fan Meijiao, who was delirious, being dragged out like a dead dog, Zhao Fengnian knew that this time he could definitely use this opportunity to push the Zhao Family to new heights. Thus, when the Mu Family was about to detail Fan Meijiao’s litany of crimes, Zhao Fengnian preempted them and directly exposed the Mu Family’s sordid secret that they had been trying to hide.

The Mu Family racked their brains but could not figure out how Zhao Fengnian had become aware of this disgraceful matter. They only knew that if they insisted on putting Fan Meijiao to death, it wouldn’t take until tomorrow for the scandal about Second Master Mu’s impotence and preference for men to spread throughout every street and alley of Jing City.

Wipe out everyone from the Zhao and Fan Families? Don’t be foolish, if Zhao Fengnian dared to make a ruckus openly, wouldn’t he have anticipated this and prepared a Plan B? If he were truly so short-sighted, he would not have been able to rise to his current high position in just a little more than twenty years.

The Mu Family wanted face, the Zhao Family wanted profit, and Fan Meijiao became a pivot point between them. Once the pivot shifted, the relationship between the two families would lose its balance, and neither would end up well.

After a battle without gunpowder smoke, the Mu and Zhao Families finally reached an agreement: Fan Meijiao was a daughter-in-law of the Mu Family, and in exchange for the Mu Family’s support in helping Zhao Fengnian climb higher, Zhao Fengnian would have to keep the Mu Family’s secrets and facilitate the Mu Family’s needs when necessary. From then on, the Mu and Zhao Families would look after each other, advance and retreat together; any betrayer would be damned by heaven!

As for Fan Meijiao, who had fallen into the mire of the colluding Mu and Zhao Families, no one cared whether she was happy or not. Without the affection and love of a husband and despised by her in-laws, even her maternal uncle, her one dependable relative, could no longer be relied upon. One could almost imagine what a miserable life she would lead from now on.

However, all this had nothing to do with Mo Yan anymore. She propped up her eyelids as she listened to the report from Little Green Bird and, feeling relaxed in body and mind, she fell into a deep sleep. As for the Zhao Family... since they were still of use now, they could be spared for the time being. And if she could follow the trail to find something good enough to annihilate the Mu Family, that would be even better.
