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

”Second brother, you... you should go to the government and explain what you’ve done clearly! Maybe the government will be lenient and spare your life?”

Mu Dashan was an honest man, and he took the initiative to persuade Mu Dazhong to turn himself in.

Mu Dazhong’s face turned green on the spot.

”Third brother, you mean to let me sit in prison? Who will take care of my wife? Who will take care of my son? You?”

”Second brother, why should I take care of your wife and son? Isn’t this your own matter?”

In this matter, Mu Dashan wasn’t being foolish.

In his mind, he always remembered what Shuangshuang said about how serious his second brother’s deeds were!

This time, he wouldn’t compromise no matter what!

”I don’t care, if you want me to go to prison, you have to support my wife and son for me, or give me money to find my big brother in the county! Big brother won’t leave us in the lurch!”

Their voices were a bit loud, even Mu Shuangshuang in the next room heard the commotion and got up to take a look.

As soon as she saw Mu Dazhong, her face darkened.

”Second uncle, what are you knocking on my dad’s door for in the middle of the night?” Mu Shuangshuang asked.

As soon as she finished, Mu Dazhong moved over to her side.

”Shuang, I know you have money, how about lending me some, and I promise to pay you back with interest when I have money!” Mu Dazhong said.

”Second uncle, stop trying to fool me, if I lent you money, it would definitely never be repaid!

But there are some things I still want to say to you! Life is so short, a mistake is a mistake!

Everyone should be responsible for what they do! Even if you don’t think about yourself, think about Gou Dan and second aunt. If you run away, you might have to live as a fugitive for the rest of your life, do you want to never see them again?

Do you want them to be talked about behind their backs for the rest of their lives?” Mu Shuangshuang said.

In fact, Mu Shuangshuang didn’t really understand the specifics of Mu Dazhong’s matter.

But from what Mu Dashan and the others said, she could roughly imagine the implications under Da Ning Law.

Mu Dazhong should take responsibility for this, but it’s probably not entirely his fault, if he went to the government, he might just serve a few years and then be released!

However, Mu Dazhong has been a rogue for half his life.

He’s done many bad things, yet has never been punished.

Giving him a scare is also good!

If by chance, he has any conscience and goes to turn himself in, it would mean he didn’t live in vain!

Unfortunately, Mu Shuangshuang overestimated Mu Dazhong.

After Mu Dazhong heard what Mu Shuangshuang said, he spat at her fiercely.

Luckily, Mu Shuangshuang dodged in time, so it didn’t stick to her clothes.

”Bah, you all want me dead, I’m telling you, I, Mu Dazhong, would rather die than sit in prison!”

With that, Mu Dazhong turned and ran, disappearing in no time from the courtyard of the Third Branch of the Old Mu Family!

...

The next day, something major happened in the village, and people went to the village head to complain.

Everyone’s chickens and ducks were stolen, even the insignificant pots and pans were whisked away.

Wang Fugui’s house was the worst hit, losing an ox and an ox cart!

The villagers were in an uproar!

Upon hearing the news, Mu Shuangshuang’s first instinct was to think it was Mu Dazhong.

Whatever little compassion she had left for Mu Dazhong vanished because of this!

Whether Mu Dazhong was dead or alive, it had nothing to do with her anymore!

However, what Mu Shuangshuang didn’t expect was that Mu Dazhong, in his desperation, almost took chickens from the Old Mu Family and a pig from Mu Dalang.

Mu Dalang came personally to talk about this, saying he saw his father.

He, together with Uncle Five, if he hadn’t stopped them, the chickens and ducks of Tie Dao Village would probably have suffered as well!

Talking about this, the expression on Mu Dalang’s face was still excited.

He hadn’t been back to the Old Mu Family in a long time, he came back this time just for this!

”No need to be angry, what’s done is done, let’s tell Grandpa later and let them be prepared!” Mu Shuangshuang said.

Mu Dalang nodded.

”Sigh, he did wrong, now so many people are suffering with him! Yet he has the nerve to run away!”

Mu Dalang felt truly distressed!

No matter what, he was still his own father, for other things, he could turn a blind eye, but for this matter of life and death...

”That’s just my second uncle’s nature! If he didn’t run, the sky would rain red! By the way, why is it just you, where’s sister-in-law?”

Mu Shuangshuang remembered that this time, Mu Dalang came alone.

”She’s at home drinking medicine.”

”Ah? Drinking medicine? Is she ill? Do you want to ask Grandpa Zhang to take a look?” Mu Shuangshuang was filled with anxiety.

But Mu Dalang shook his head, ”Not sick, just...”

”Not sick, then why drink medicine? Medicine is poison in small doses, what if it harms her?” Mu Shuangshuang’s tone was a bit harsh.

But it was all for the good of Mu Dalang and Huang Bita.

Once she finished speaking, Mu Dalang lowered his head.

”Actually, it’s not really medicine, just a bit of talismanic water, Bita took it from Aunt Ge, said drinking it... would help us have children faster! You know, it’s been almost a year since Bita and I got married, and there’s still no movement in her belly! So...”

”So you let her drink that stuff to get pregnant? Big brother, are you out of your mind? How could you think of such an idea, tell me!”

Mu Shuangshuang mercilessly scolded Mu Dalang.

She didn’t expect that Mu Dalang could be such scum!

”Back then, you said you would treat Sister-in-law Bita well all your life, never let her suffer! Can you stand by your vows? Can you face the three brothers of the Huang family?

If I had known you were like this, I wouldn’t have come up with that stupid idea for you two to be together! You better scram, I don’t want to say another word to someone like you!”

In this era, is it a woman’s original sin not to have children or sons?

Xiuxiu, a good pregnant woman, was nearly driven to depression by Aunt Ge!

To this day, she only dares to hide in town, unable to return home!

Her constant wish for her big brother’s family to be happy, yet they drank talismanic water for the sake of children.

It’s only been a year, right?

Do those who don’t have kids two or three years after marriage need to die?

Being scolded fiercely by Mu Shuangshuang, Mu Dalang wasn’t the slightest bit angry.

He even nodded, admitting his mistake in front of Mu Shuangshuang, ”Shuangshuang, I’m sorry, I... I’m at fault!

I actually tried to persuade Bita, but she didn’t listen, she said if I tried to stop her, it meant I didn’t want her to have kids, didn’t want us to have a better future!”

”Wait, you said sister-in-law didn’t listen to you? It wasn’t you who made her drink it?” Mu Shuangshuang was confused! ”No, I’m not that shameless! The wife I married, of course, I treasure and love her! It’s just... you know, when Bita is stubborn, she won’t listen to anyone!”
