Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 58 - Auspicious

Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Auspicious

The village head sneered, “Are you all so anxious to divorce Madam Xie, huh?”

“Indeed, that woman is bad luck; keeping her in the Mo family one more day brings misfortune. I’m afraid she’ll jinx Auntie Sun and cause her to have no sons either. Wouldn’t the main branch then be cut off?” Old Lady Mo was completely oblivious to the village head’s displeasure, still rattling on.

“Exactly, Mother-in-law is right. My sister-in-law has given birth to three daughters; she’s a harbinger of disaster, indeed unlucky. Our family can’t bear such tribulations anymore.” In her eagerness to please Old Lady Mo, Auntie Sun also had the chance to belittle Madam Xie—why wouldn’t she take it?

Before it ended, she elbowed Mo Xiaoqiang forcefully at her side and asked with a hidden barb in her smile, “Husband, you agree, don’t you?”

“Ouch!”

“Hmm?” Only a grunt of pain was heard, no response as expected. Turning her head, Auntie Sun gave him a warning glance.

...

“Yes, yes.”

Having received a jab in the stomach from Auntie Sun, Mo Xiaoqiang hurriedly complied.

“Ha-ha… It’s so ridiculous it could make one die of laughter. One can’t have sons and it’s contagious? You people really have thick skins, blaming everything on my mother.” Xuexue, who had already come in and had been listening for a while, now stood out, pointing at Old Lady Mo and the others, her cold laughter unceasing.

“What mischief are you up to now? Get out.” As soon as Old Lady Mo saw Xuexue mocking her, she became instantly furious.

In this period, every time Xuexue appeared, Old Lady Mo never had it good; she had long since considered her a thorn in her side.

The village head stood up, clearly unhappy, and said to Old Lady Mo, “I permitted her to come in. You divorce her mother, yet you won’t allow her to listen? What kind of reasoning is that?”

“My goodness! Village head, you don’t know, this wretched girl is becoming wilder by the day. She doesn’t even respect me, her grandmother; it’s too excessive.” While talking, Old Lady Mo stared fiercely at Xuexue with her sharp eyes.

“That’s because you haven’t set a good example. You have none of the dignity expected of an elder, yet you expect others to respect you?” The village head rebutted coldly.

“Ah! You…”

Old Lady Mo wanted to erupt in anger, but remembering the man was the village head, she had to hold back her displeasure and fell silent for a moment.

“Ha-ha! Village head, don’t be angry, okay, okay.” Old Master Mo said with a laugh to the village head, then turned round, his face stern, “Old woman, stop making a scene.”

“Hmph!” The village head snorted coldly and sat back down.

“Village head, regarding the matter of Madam Xie, what is your opinion?” Old Master Mo, noticing that the village head had mentioned Madam Xie repeatedly, realized he had stayed back for her sake and therefore inquired cautiously.

“Do my words carry any weight?”

“Of course, they do. Of course, The old man listens to the village head.” Old Master Mo said repeatedly, joking aside, the village head might not hold a high official post, but he was in charge of several hundred people in Mo Family Village, and Old Master Mo dared not offend him lightly.

“Your Mo family may decide to divorce your daughter-in-law, and I, as the village head, can’t stop that. But Madam Xie has labored for the Mo family like an ox or a horse for over a decade and has given birth to three daughters for your family. There’s an old saying, ‘no merit is still hard work,’ right, Old Master?”

“Right, right, right, ha-ha!” The Old Master nodded his head incessantly.

“Tch! All she gave birth to are money-losers; who would want that.” Old Lady Mo muttered disdainfully under her breath, grinding her teeth.

Old Master Mo quickly tugged at her sleeve forcefully, reminding her not to provoke the village head again.

“Hmph!”

Although not convinced, Old Lady Mo stopped speaking.
