Lady Du’s voice was not high, but it was resolute and powerful, creating an echo as it hit the ground.
It was wholly unlike her usual demure, deferential demeanor.
Everyone in the main room was stunned, gazing in disbelief at Lady Du.
None of them believed that Lady Du, who they had always oppressed and tortured, would suddenly voice such utterances.
The old man reacted first.
The old man jumped up from the edge of the Kang in a flash, and his rage erupted like a thunderstorm.
“Rebellion, rebellion, this is intolerable!

Quick, eldest daughter-in-law, what are you waiting for?
Administer the family law now, immediately administer the family law!”
As soon as Lady Li, Mu Zhongli’s mother-in-law, heard the patriarch’s command, she was eager to comply.
She rolled up her sleeves and charged forward.
Lady Li, Mu Zhongli’s wife, was a large and robust woman, resembling a man, but she was mean-spirited and extremely malicious deep down.
Being ugly and vulgar herself, she was not favored by her husband, hence she bore a deep grudge against Lady Du’s frail and delicate demeanor.
A woman who couldn’t do farm work or needlework, and only knew how to seduce men, what kind of good wife was she?
Yet her younger brother-in-law was bewitched by her, even daring to bear the sin of being unfilial for her, something her own husband would never do.
Her husband Mu Zhongli treated her like a beast of burden.
She had to work in the fields and do chores even when she was having her menstrual cycle.
If she did even a little less, he would slap her immediately.
How could this compare to the tender affection her younger brother-in-law showed to his wife?
Gradually, her jealousy towards Lady Du accumulated, turning into a hatred that could not coexist in the same sky.
Lady Du naturally became her number one enemy in her mind!
Now, hearing the patriarch’s command, she was more than willing to comply, her eyes blazing with excitement.
She gathered her strength, preparing to fiercely thrash this seductive fox!
Seeing his mother ready to take action, Mu Chongfu was not to be outdone.
He rolled up his sleeves and strode towards Wen’er.
“Mu Chongwen, you unfilial son of a b*tch, I’ll crush you!” Mu Chongfu rushed forward with overwhelming momentum.
Despite his opponent being only seven years old, and him being more than twice his age and weight, he was not at all affected by this unfair comparison.
He mustered up his courage, ready to teach this little son of a b*tch a tough lesson, to see if he would dare to defy the main family in the future.
“Smack——”
Without warning.
A basket of needle and thread was flung fiercely into Lady Li’s face!
Lady Li was taken off guard, screamed, clutched her face, and crouched down.
“Clatter——”
When the basket of needle and thread fell to the ground, all the bits and bobs inside spilled out, scattering all over the place.
—— On the other side, Cai Fei was panting heavily, slowly lowering her arm.
Her body was trembling from anger and excitement, and the hatred on her face was about to incinerate Lady Li across from her.
Trailing behind Lady Li, Mu Chongfu was rushing forward when he didn’t expect his mother to suddenly stop.
As a result, he crashed into Lady Li, knocking them both to the ground.
“Ouch, it’s crushing me!”
“Mama, the scissors, the scissors pierced me——”
Mother and son howled in pain.
At this point, the whole main family was infuriated.
Second brother, Mu Chongcai, ran into the kitchen, grabbed a fire stick, and emerged yelling obscenities: “This is outrageous, Mu Caifei, you little cheap hoof, how dare you assault an elder?
I’ll split you alive!”
The old man vexedly added: “Cai’er, there’s no need to be polite with this unfilial beast.
Just give it a good beating, but spare her life!”
Meanwhile, the grandmother attempted to placate but ended up exacerbating the situation: “Children make mistakes, it’s unavoidable.
Just give her a few whacks on her legs as a light punishment, and that’s it.
But that ruinous hussy, just beat her to death!”
