From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!

Chapter 285: Chapter 284: Liu Wangcai’s Wife VS Old Mrs. Mu (Third Update)

Mu Dazhong asked the same question, which was also Mu Shuangshuang’s reason for coming today.

One Mu Zhenzhen wasn’t enough to make her step in, but Mu Zhenzhen was now the abandoned girl from the Old Mu Family. Her reputation was already bad, and if she were accused of stealing...

Then these girls of the next generation wouldn’t have a good ending either.

Mu Dashan pressed his lips together and said nothing. Things had reached this point, regardless of whether Zhenzhen did it or not, the Old Mu Family was going to protect her to the end; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

”Second Brother, you shouldn’t say that. Zhenzhen is not that kind of person. Although she’s lazy and indulgent, she wouldn’t sell herself for money.” Mu Dashan spoke in fairness based on his understanding of his second sister.

Old Mrs. Mu’s expression softened a bit.

At this moment, people from the village who had searched Mu Zhenzhen’s room in the backyard came out, their faces flushed.

”What happened? Did you find anything?” Old Mrs. Mu got up again, her heart pounding with fear. When Zhenzhen took the money jar, she entered the room; if they found it...

”No, we... falsely accused the second aunt of the Mu Family, we’re sorry!”

Understanding villagers apologized first, while Aunt Zhang, being too cunning, stirred up trouble and fled when things went wrong.

However, Liu Wangcai’s wife was convinced the Old Mu Family had hidden things and wanted to report it to the authorities.

”Aunt Ju Hua, this matter is already so clear, how long will you keep slandering?” Mu Shuangshuang spoke again.

Liu Wangcai’s wife didn’t gain anything; the chicken was gone, the money was gone, and even her undergarments were ruined. How could she swallow this?

Mu Shuangshuang, who disrupted everything, became her target for venting. She rushed over, intending to teach Mu Shuangshuang a lesson, but who knew Mu Shuangshuang dodged and shouted to Old Mrs. Mu:

”Granny, Aunt Ju Hua wronged my second aunt, shouldn’t you properly reprimand her!”

Without another word, Old Mrs. Mu charged forward, ready to fight Liu Wangcai’s wife.

This was probably an epic battle in the village, Liu Wangcai’s wife meeting Old Mrs. Mu, neither of them easy to deal with.

Liu Wangcai’s wife kicked in the stomach as soon as she came up, and Old Mrs. Mu dodged and grabbed Liu Wangcai’s wife’s hair, pulling it desperately.

”You wild pheasant, dare to wrong our Zhenzhen, let’s see if this old woman doesn’t pluck all your feathers.”

Liu Wangcai’s wife, unwilling to be outdone, elbowed Old Mrs. Mu’s chest as they grappled and rolled on the ground.

Hair lay scattered on the ground, Old Mrs. Mu’s meticulously styled hair was disheveled, her clothes torn, and Liu Wangcai’s wife wasn’t much better.

Her body was nearly broken by Old Mrs. Mu’s nails, and finally, unable to bear it, Liu Wangcai’s wife started screaming.

”Liu Wangcai, you coward, I’m being beaten to death, and you’re not coming to help, ouch... it hurts, it hurts, let go, you old hag...”

Old Mrs. Mu bit Liu Wangcai’s wife’s ear hard and pulled, causing blood to flow profusely. Liu Wangcai, seeing things go wrong, wanted to help, but the several sons of the Old Mu Family were no pushovers, each staring at Liu Wangcai.

Finally, Liu Wangcai turned tail and ran, disappearing quickly.

As for settling the dispute, that was Mr. Mu’s job. After he arrived, a few words separated them, leaving Liu Wangcai’s wife covered in injuries.

”You’ll see, I won’t let anyone from your Old Mu Family off...”

Like bad guys who make threats before fleeing in disgrace, Liu Wangcai’s wife said such words before leaving.

Old Mrs. Mu, like a victorious rooster, kept scolding, not caring about the pain in her body.

”That’s enough, aren’t you embarrassed enough, keep yelling, they’re all gone!” Mr. Mu tapped the ground heavily with his tobacco stem.

”You old fart, you just came back now, our Zhenzhen almost got bullied to death, do you know?” Old Mrs. Mu rolled her eyes and asked Mr. Mu.

How could Mr. Mu not understand this matter? He heard about it halfway through his work and couldn’t even tend to the cotton in the field, rushing over to check, bumping into Yu Liulang on the way.

After explaining the situation, Mr. Mu and him hurried to block the path to the village, fearing that Zhenzhen would return and make things worse.

”We’ll talk about it when we get home, I want to hear how you explain today, some people’s mouths in the Old Mu Family are getting too bold.”

First, the villagers learned about Zhenzhen being abandoned, then everyone gathered at the Old Mu Family. Mr. Mu wanted to see who was so bold.

Mrs. Lin glanced at Mr. Mu in a trembling manner; she was the one who told the village’s young wives about Mu Zhenzhen being abandoned.

She didn’t mean anything by it, just wanted to mention that being good-looking was useless, couldn’t keep one’s man.

It was this glance that let Old Mrs. Mu realize who was talking outside. She went up to Mrs. Lin and slapped her, leaving Mrs. Lin stunned.

”So it’s you, you venomous woman, even daring to spread such matters.”

”Mother, no... it’s not me,” Mrs. Lin explained weakly.

”Not you, huh, I know what you’re up to whenever you bend over, not you, then why do you feel guilty?

If not you, why hide and not speak, aren’t you the most aggressive normally? Where’s your aggressiveness now, let me see it!”

As Old Mrs. Mu spoke, her hands didn’t stop moving, the sound of slaps piercingly loud.

Mu Shuangshuang frowned; Old Mrs. Mu was making a big deal out of nothing. Mu Zhenzhen being abandoned was bound to be known eventually, wasn’t it?

Beating people like this was too excessive.

Mrs. Lin, her mouth full of blood from being slapped, looked at her husband for help, but Mu Dazhong pretended not to see, saying nothing.

”Enough, just teach her a lesson, stop making a fuss, let’s go back and deal with this.” Mr. Mu saw Old Mrs. Mu not following, returned to scold her briefly, and she reluctantly left.

Mu Shuangshuang felt she had nothing else to do, so she took Mu Dashan’s arm and headed toward her room.

”Shuang, Third Son, you two come along too, the family’s matters concern you.”

”Grandpa, let’s leave it be, the third branch has already split off, it’s better not to know what’s going on, Shuangshuang’s not very discreet, afraid she’ll accidentally say something she shouldn’t, harming others and herself.”

Mu Zhenzhen’s words were twofold, expressing her stance that helping out didn’t mean she would return to being oppressed. Also, she hinted at her displeasure with Old Mrs. Mu’s arbitrary beating.

”You...” Mr. Mu was speechless, and his impression of Mu Shuangshuang, which had recently improved, became worse again.

”You old fart, she’s not interested in our shabby house, wants to live in a nice house, why are you butting in?”

”Shut up, keep nagging and I’ll get rid of you!”
