Chapter 243 -244 Er Liang is Already Dead_1

Muniang wiped away her disgraced tears, feeling a deep ache in her heart, and sat by the vegetable patch in the courtyard, yanking at the “weeds” in the field, handful by handful.

Qingya couldn’t bear it any longer; after all, Lady personally took care of this small vegetable garden on normal days and cherished it dearly, so she still spoke up, “Lady, those are tomato seedlings.”

But Muniang seemed not to hear her at all, still pulling away relentlessly, her tears rolling down.

Qingya didn’t know what had happened between Lady and the master inside the house, and seeing Muniang crying so intensely, she immediately panicked, “Lady, what’s wrong? Did you quarrel with the master? Please don’t cry.”

Qingya hurriedly passed Muniang a handkerchief to wipe her tears.

“Oh, hiding here and crying, are we? Weren’t you so capable before?” He Suxue’s piercing voice came through.

Instinctively, Muniang grabbed the handkerchief from Qingya’s hand and hastily wiped her face, then stood up ready to leave.

He Suxue blocked her path, proudly raising her head, “What’s the matter? Ashamed to see me? Weren’t you all high and mighty before? Now you know your place, don’t you? Clearly, you see who the real clown is, right? Yu Ze wouldn’t sacrifice a finger for you, even if it meant your death!”

Muniang glanced at her indifferently, “You can take pleasure now. You’d better hurry and have Yu Ze divorce me and marry you, then you can slap my face even more joyfully. Oh, but you can’t. Yu Ze can save you anytime, but he’s never going to make you his wife, so you can only seek attention by self-harm. Is that really amusing?”

He Suxue’s face turned beet red, “You think you’re his wife now? With such a title that is neither proper nor correct, what is the difference from a concubine? Truly shameless, considering yourself so important! Do you really think you can relax just because he shows a bit of affection for you now? I’ve seen many women like you, just clinging desperately after climbing onto someone of higher status, thinking a wild chicken can become a phoenix, right? Don’t think I have no idea what you’re plotting!”

Muniang scoffed, “So what if you know what I’m thinking? What does it matter if I aspire to rise above my station? Does it not make you feel inferior that Yu Ze would rather have me, a village girl, than you?”

He Suxue was so angry she felt like tearing Muniang’s face apart, “You—”

But suddenly, He Suxue’s expression changed, and she put on a pitiful facade, grabbing Muniang’s sleeve, “Muniang, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have made a scene trying to kill myself, making Yu come to save me in front of everyone and making you upset. Please don’t be angry with me, okay? You can scold or hit me, and I’ll endure it. But do you still want to chase me away? How can I leave with my frail health?”

With her tearful entreaty, He Suxue not only painted Muniang as petty but also labeled her as someone who abuses poor, delicate He Suxue, and even as someone eager to drive her out.

Muniang just chuckled; she was no fool. No one but Yu Ze could have prompted He Suxue to change so swiftly.

Glancing up, Muniang saw Yu Ze walking towards them and sneered at He Suxue, “Since you say you can endure beatings and scolding, let’s test it out. If you can endure it, I might consider not sending you away.”

He Suxue wasn’t quick to grasp the meaning, for they were her words, improvised to reveal the “true face” of Qiao Muniang to Yu Ze, but what did they mean?

Before He Suxue had a chance to understand, Muniang had already raised her hand and slapped He Suxue across the cheek, then with a cold look at Yu Ze, another slap followed.

The two crisp sounds startled a row of sparrows from the treetops. Muniang’s blows were fierce; each slap carried her full strength—enough for three.

Only then did He Suxue realize what had happened; she had never been hit in her life, especially not so brazenly. Tears of fury sprang forth, “Yu, she actually hit me.”

Yu Ze watched Muniang, not uttering a single word.

Muniang lifted her head, “Didn’t you say you could endure? Just two slaps and you’re already crying to heaven and earth, and I haven’t even started using my full strength yet.”

He Suxue raised her eyes to look at Muniang’s cold pupils, and her heart was suddenly filled with fear, realizing for the first time that she had provoked someone she should not have.

But Yu Ze showed no intention of helping her. He didn’t even have a trace of anger about Muniang hitting her in front of him. Instead, He Suxue was the one erupting with fury. She had intended to deliberately make Yu Ze mistake Muniang for being ferocious and jealous, but Muniang just took it further, saying she would act and she did, while Yu Ze seemed to be aiding and abetting her.

The hand inside He Suxue’s sleeve was almost digging into her own flesh as she gritted her teeth and said, “Qiao Muniang, what right do you have to lay a hand on me? Do you really think I’m someone you, of such lowly status, can compare with?!”

Muniang let out a cold laugh, losing her patience so quickly. She took steps closer to He Suxue, a chilling smile still on her lips that made He Suxue’s skin crawl, “You think I don’t dare? I hate it the most when others provoke me!”

Immediately, she kicked He Suxue in the stomach. He Suxue almost flew off before Yu Ze frowned and said, “Muniang, it’s enough to take pleasure in teaching her a lesson.” His meaning was to not make it a matter of life and death.

In extreme pain, He Suxue clutched at Yu Ze’s hem and burst into tears, “Yu, she’s going to kill me, she really is! How can you keep such a venomous woman around?!”

Muniang laughed softly, as if this whole commotion had instead made her see through a lot, one way or another, he was still defending that woman.

“Naturally, I won’t. You’ve said yourself you’d keep her safe, I wouldn’t dare do much,” Muniang’s smile was particularly piercing. Yu Ze looked at her, heartbroken, feeling as if something was slipping through his fingers, elusive to his grasp.

“But!” Muniang’s tone shifted, becoming decisive, “Yu Ze, I’ve said I can’t endure it, not even for a moment, if you’ve already made your choice, then I, I’m done with you!”

After speaking vehemently, Muniang stepped directly over He Suxue and went straight back into the house.

The last few words exploded in Yu Ze’s mind, and looking at Muniang’s resolute figure, he almost instantaneously ran after her.

Muniang slammed the door shut with a “bang,” separating the two worlds. Yu Ze exuded a fierce aura, as if ready to freeze someone at any moment.

“Muniang, open the door.”

“Qiao Muniang, I’ve told you that you can’t ever mention letting go, not in this lifetime. I can indulge you in anything else, but there’s absolutely no room for negotiation on this one!”

“You can take your anger out on anyone, you can even hit me and I won’t say a word, but asking me to let go is absolutely impossible!”

What answered him was a stretch of silence.

Yu Ze’s expression darkened, and with a “bang,” he shattered the main door with a single strike. The young servants nearby hardly dared to breathe, thinking to themselves how terrifying the master’s quarrel was!

Muniang looked steadily at him, “Maybe I should have realized long ago, the person whose hands I desperately cling to isn’t you, but the fool who can’t bear to accommodate anyone or anything else in his heart but me. By his side, I have never lacked a sense of security, because I know his world consists only of me.

But you are different, Yu Ze, your world has too much in it, you harbor too much in your heart. I’ve never been certain of my own weight in your heart. You might think I’m selfish, but that’s just the way I am. If I can’t be the one and only, then I’d rather not have anything. It’s my fault, I mistook the person. Perhaps in your moment of clarity, Suxue would have already been dead.”
