Mo Shujun looked at Shi Qingxue and stated forcefully, “Kid, I can see that you have evil intentions and want to frame your uncle purposely, right?
“Juncai seldom talks with you at ordinary times. Although he doesn’t spoil you, he never offends you. How can you be so heartless as to put all the blame on your innocent uncle?”
She cursed and shouted. It was obvious that she thought that Shi Qingxue made irresponsible remarks and intentionally framed Shi Juncai.
She was really good at making false countercharges.
Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but tut-tut to praise her grandmother.
Nevertheless, she didn’t hurry to retort or explain. Instead, she pretended to look at Mo Shujun doubtfully. “Grandma, why did you say that? I never show disrespect to Uncle Juncai.”
“In this case, give Leng Yan to me. Then it can prove that the maid talked nonsense and it has nothing to do with you. So I naturally won’t blame you.”
Mo Shujun finally showed her evil heart, demanding Shi Qingxue to give out Leng Yan.
Fierceness couldn’t be hidden in her eyes. If Leng Yan was in her hands, would she stay alive?
“Grandma, please keep calm,” Shi Qingxue smiled and stated unhurriedly. “Since you said that Leng Yan just talked nonsense, it needs to be proven.”
Mo Shujun interrupted, “The baby is in her womb. Can’t she make malicious remarks randomly about who the father is?
“If she is well-behaved and admits her guilt, maybe I can spare her life, but if she insists on fabricating a charge against Juncai, I won’t spare her.”
She spoke with justice. Judging from her words and serious expression, she affirmed that Shi Juncai was not to blame.
Even though both of them knew the truth.
Mo Shujun dared to brazenly put all the blame on Leng Yan just because the baby in her womb was not born and it could prove nothing.
Shi Qingxue was clear about this point, too. Looking at Mo Shujun’s ugly features, she didn’t want to argue with her endlessly.
She stared at Mo Shujun and expressed directly, “Grandma, maybe you don’t know that the government has an advanced technology. Even if the baby is not born, it can be matched with the biological father and then they can eventually confirm who on earth the father is.”
“No way!” Mo Shujun’s eyes widened in astonishment. Why didn’t she know that the medical skills in the country were so advanced?
In fact, Mo Shujun guessed right. The ordinary doctors in the country were not so capable indeed, while Shen Luo might be able to do that. However, if he confirmed the truth, it would only give Mo Shujun an excuse to resort to sophistry.
Shi Qingxue said that, which was really to trick Mo Shujun.
She continued, “But if we do that, the baby in Leng Yan’s womb can’t be kept alive. Although we have to find who the father is, we can’t kill an innocent baby for no reason. Do you think so?”
Mo Shujun had fallen into Shi Qingxue’s trap. Hearing the girl’s words, she nodded repeatedly and replied in a hurry, “Right. No matter what happens, we can’t do something so evil. We’d rather not find the truth than harm our family’s fame because of that.”
Such words seemed so righteous with sufficient reasons and justice.
Shi Qingxue pursed her lips and knew more about Mo Shujun’s shamelessness.
However, she didn’t give Mo Shujun a chance to feel lucky. She smiled and stated, “So I have arranged for Leng Yan temporarily. After she is pregnant for nine months and gives birth to the baby, we will send them to the government and let them check if its father is my uncle. Then we will know the truth as soon as they check.”
“You can’t do that!” Mo Shujun yelled emotionally.
After the baby was born, wouldn’t it be solid evidence?
Mo Shujun realized that she was too emotional after yelling and then hurriedly put on a dignified face, explaining, “Kid, what nonsense are you talking about? It is the domestic affair in our family. If you report to the government, wouldn’t it be embarrassing? Are you going to ignore the family’s fame?”
Shi Qingxue sneered and didn’t pretend politeness and compliance. She just retorted, “Uncle Juncai has an affair with his brother’s future concubine but keeps it a secret. He got her pregnant yet still plotted to marry her to his brother. Shouldn’t he be punished?”
Mo Shujun’s face stiffened, and she didn’t give in but argued, “You don’t have evidence. You can’t talk rubbish.”
“So I just wait for the ‘evidence’ to be born and then ask the public to be witnesses, in case that somebody suspects that I frame him on purpose.” Shi Qingxue retorted Mo Shujun’s condemnation softly.
Mo Shujun was rendered speechless. After a while, when she still tried to struggle, Shi Qingxue continued coldly, “By the way, I forgot to tell you just now, Grandma. Leng Yan said in her confession that you have found her secret relationship with my uncle earlier yet insisted on marrying her to Father, trying to deceive everybody and make her unborn baby Duke Shi’s heir…”
Her soft and calm voice revealed all Mo Shujun’s dirty thoughts and made her feel too ashamed to show her face.
When she was about to retort that it was Leng Yan’s one-sided statement, she saw that Shi Qingxue took out Rou’er’s confession, which clearly proved this point.
Even if she argued that the two maids framed her intentionally, as long as Shi Qingxue handed out the two confessions and had Shi Juncai and Leng Yan’s baby checked, it would be useless no matter what Mo Shujun said.
Mo Shujun looked at Shi Qingxue resentfully and finally understood.
Shi Qingxue had all the evidence against her, and she said a lot earlier just to trick her and then see her being forced to be speechless in a hopeless situation.
“What on earth do you want? Just say it!” Even though Mo Shujun was at a disadvantage, she was still unwilling to lower her dignified head.
She asked in such a tone, as if she was the one who got the upper hand.
Shi Qingxue knew Mo Shujun’s character and didn’t mind.
She just stared at Mo Shujun coldly and stressed each word. “Both of them are your biological sons, while you help one of them fool the other. Don’t you feel ashamed?”
Mo Shujun turned away and avoided Shi Qingxue’s questioning eyes. She just repeated coldly, “Since you came to see me at this hour, you must want to negotiate with me. What do you want so that you won’t make things difficult for Juncai? Just tell me.”
Make things difficult for him?
She said that, and it seemed that Shi Qingxue was unreasonable and made trouble out of nothing.
Shi Qingxue snorted as she was disappointed at Mo Shujun thoroughly.
Her grandmother was so partial. In order to make her youngest son gain wealth and glory, she even allowed a woman to cheat on her eldest son. How could she expect Mo Shujun to make a fair decision?
“Grandma, since you are willing to do so much for my uncle, I will say it directly.” With her gloomy eyes, Shi Qingxue gazed at Mo Shujun, adding coldly, “Before Grandpa passed away, he suggested that Father and his brothers should live apart, but in order to consider your feelings, Father never mentioned this matter. However, Uncle Juncai did something so evil, and I fear that he would harm Father because of the title of nobility in the future.
“In order to make everybody live in comfort, let’s choose a lucky day and let the three brothers break up the family and live apart, without influencing one another.”
Mo Shujun stared at Shi Qingxue in surprise and seemed not to have expected that Shi Qingxue as one of the young generation should talk with her about breaking up the family.
Wasn’t she joking?
However, Shi Qingxue’s eyes were cold and serious, with full momentum.
Even if Mo Shujun had one hundred excuses to reject Shi Qingxue’s request, she was shocked by the girl’s eyes.
After a long time, Mo Shujun came back to earth from Qingxue’s strong pressure. She sat straight and tried to make herself look powerful. “The ancients said that when the parents were alive, the brothers wouldn’t live apart. I am still alive now. You are a kid, but you incited your father to break up the family. If the news spreads, aren’t you afraid that others would curse him as he doesn’t respect the elders or love his brothers?”
Shi Qingxue understood that Mo Shujun prepared to block the “road” of breaking up the family on the excuse of the filial piety.
“I just want to fulfill Grandpa’s wish before he passed away. Why would that mean that Father does not respect the elders or love his brothers?” Shi Qingxue retorted boldly with sufficient reasons.
Her hidden meaning was that, in the saying that when the parents were alive, the brothers wouldn’t live apart, the parent referred to the father, the family master. As a mother, Mo Shujun didn’t have the right to stop them from breaking up the family, even though the mother was a princess royal.
In another word, Shi Junhe didn’t break up the family in the past because he respected the elder, and now he asked to live apart, which was also reasonable.
Mo Shujun was rendered speechless by Shi Qingxue’s words, and her last excuse vanished in a flash.
Although she was reluctant, she had to agree. “Okay. Next spring, I will ask the elders in the clan to break up the family for the three brothers. Can’t you wait such a short period?”
Mo Shujun knew that Shi Juncai hadn’t regained his official position and needed to ask others for help depending on Shi Junhe’s fame. If the news spread that they broke up the family, it would be bad news to Shi Juncai undoubtedly.
Even if they would really break up the family, she had to wait till Shi Juncai gained the fourth prince’s support.
Shi Qingxue certainly understood Mo Shujun’s intention, but she considered something else, so she didn’t say no.
Both parties soon reached an agreement about the plan to break up the family.
Mo Shujun immediately wanted to kick Shi Qingxue out, yet before she spoke,
Shi Qingxue expressed unhurriedly, “It’s a long time before the next spring. Since we won’t live apart in this period, I am afraid that I have something insignificant and need your help, Grandma.”
Mo Shujun frowned and asked with bad grace, “What?”
“There are so many members in the family to take care of and a lot of domestic affairs to deal with. We can’t live without the mistress. Mother had a misunderstanding with you because you insisted on telling Father to have a concubine, and she is still in my maternal grandparents’ mansion now. Please consider the general situation and go to their mansion to talk with Mother and address the misunderstanding. Then she would come back home earlier.”
Shi Qingxue said that tactfully, but she made it clear.
Mo Shujun must go to the Dong family’s mansion again to bring Dong Hui back home as she once went there with Leng Yan to humiliate Dong Hui.
Dong Hui had been insulted by Mo Shujun, and she would get back at her.
Mo Shujun didn’t react in the beginning. After she gradually understood what Shi Qingxue meant, her old face turned ghastly pale in an instant.
She pounded the table with a bang and roared at Shi Qingxue furiously, “How dare you!”
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Mo Shujun looked at Shi Qingxue and stated forcefully, “Kid, I can see that you have evil intentions and want to frame your uncle purposely, right?
“Juncai seldom talks with you at ordinary times. Although he doesn’t spoil you, he never offends you. How can you be so heartless as to put all the blame on your innocent uncle?”
