Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord-Chapter 96 - : Granddaughter
Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Granddaughter
“Old Maid, let him go.”
Old Master Mo advanced, pulling Old Lady Mo’s hand from his sleeve, and then said to Mo Xiaoqiang, “Qiangqiang, hurry up and find Auntie Sun and bring her back. She’s only been with the Mo family for a short time and already she’s thinking of selling my granddaughter. This is really too much.”
“Oh! Alright then!”
Mo Xiaoqiang, upon gaining his freedom, agreed and took off running, fearing that if he slowed down even a little bit, Old Lady Mo would grab hold of him again.

“Our Qiangqiang is just foolish, with such soft ears, always listening to that Seductress Fox. It truly infuriates me,” said Old Lady Mo, clearly upset.
Old Master Mo: “It’s all due to the good job you did. The moment I saw her, I knew she wasn’t a decent woman, but you wouldn’t listen. You had to give her to Qiangqiang as a concubine. If you’d listened to me at that time, would we have this mess now?”
...
“I was after her wide hips, good for bearing children, wasn’t I? The experienced Old Maids all say that women with big hips bear sons.”
“I fear we won’t have a grandson before she has bankrupted our Mo family.”
“I can’t talk to you anymore, I’m fed up.”
After such an event, Old Lady Mo knew she was at fault and turned around, striding off.
She was also at her wit’s end as Butcher Yu had left the house in utter chaos; they didn’t even have a decent stool left. The water jar and bowls were all smashed. That damned Aunt Sun, it was all the fault of that stinking woman, bringing a Plague God upon them.
Originally, if Aunt Sun had succeeded with Xuexue’s situation, Old Lady Mo wouldn’t have bothered to interfere. After all, the girl had become contrary to just about everything and selling her off was alright by her, it would have spared her the displeasure of looking at her.
Unfortunately, not only did the situation not get resolved, but it also ruined Qiangqiang’s reputation, and their home had been vandalized, resulting in a significant loss since they would need silver to replace the broken items.
“No, I must quickly make a list of everything that was smashed to see how much it was all worth. When that dead woman comes back, I’ll have her cough up the cost.”
Old Lady Mo murmured to herself while she turned around and went back to Mo Xiaoqiang’s room; as a woman of the house, being illiterate, she needed Mo Daoyan’s help.
“Yaner, Yaner, come here for a moment.” Even before she was near, Old Lady Mo’s loud voice could be heard calling from a distance.
“Husband, Mother-in-law is calling for you! What is it?” Madam Ruan nudged Mo Daoyan with her arm.
Perplexed by Old Lady Mo’s sudden return, Mo Daoyan hastily replied, “Mother, what is it?”
“Come help me tally the damages, see how much stuff got smashed in the house, and figure out how much silver it’s all worth. I want that dead concubine Aunt Sun to pay it all back,” Old Lady Mo’s loud voice carried, her words clear even from afar.
“Giggle, giggle, there’s a good show to watch.” Madam Ruan giggled with schadenfreude, pushing Mo Daoyan, “Husband, you should hurry over.”
“Ay! On my way!”
Mo Daoyan exchanged a knowing look with Madam Ruan; at the same time, he leisurely responded to Old Lady Mo.
“My wife, I’m going to help Mother with the accounting.”
“What a headache it is for Big Brother to have married such a wife. Sigh! We’re all family, we should help out, shouldn’t we?” Madam Ruan pretended to pause, turned her head, and asked Old Master Mo, “Father-in-law, don’t you think I’m right?”
“Mmm! Indeed.” Old Master Mo nodded, giving his approval her statement.
Madam Ruan smiled triumphantly, “Husband, Mother-in-law is waiting for you outside, you better go quickly.”
“Alright then!”
Mo Daoyan walked out, his mood rather buoyant, given the misfortune of the main house. He decided that once he started the list, he would add a little extra, seeing an opportunity to line his own pockets.
