Seeing Mo Bajin come over, the corners of Yiyi’s mouth lifted slightly. Seemed like coming to the main house for dinner tonight was indeed the right choice; there was going to be quite a show.

When Qian Yafen saw Mo Bajin approaching, her expression changed slightly but she quickly steadied herself and said angrily, "Mo Bajin, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"Qian Yafen, you promised me a hundred bucks to teach Mo Yiyi a lesson. I did the job, but you didn’t keep your promise. Isn’t that a bit unreasonable?" Mo Bajin recounted the story without any hesitation.

Hearing Mo Bajin’s words, everyone’s eyes fell on Qian Yafen. Yiyi stood up immediately, full of indignation, "Auntie, it’s actually you who wanted to harm me!"

After saying this, Yiyi didn’t give Qian Yafen a chance and started speaking on her own.

"I went to Songshan to pick wild fruits today. I was walking just fine, but unexpectedly someone pushed me from behind, causing me to roll down a steep slope. Luckily, I wasn’t hurt. If I had been less fortunate, I might have died."

Even though Ding Yuejun was already aware of what her daughter went through, hearing it again made her extremely angry.

"Qian Yafen, how could you harm Yiyi like this? Are you even human? Although none of you like Yiyi, you did watch her grow up. How could you do something like this?"

"Sister-in-law, how can you be so biased and credulous?"

Qian Yafen said leisurely, looking aggrieved, "I don’t even know why Mo Bajin would say such things, but I really didn’t have him harm Yiyi."

At that moment, Old Mrs. Mo and the others reacted, looking between Qian Yafen and Mo Bajin.

But Old Mrs. Mo’s focus wasn’t on Yiyi at all; she only noticed the hundred bucks, "What... you actually spent a hundred bucks to hire someone? Where did you get so much money? Are you spending Guoping’s money recklessly?"

"Mom, I didn’t spend any money to harm Yiyi. Mo Bajin is just talking nonsense." Qian Yafen quickly looked at Old Mrs. Mo, a faint wave of helplessness and grievance in her eyes.

Seeing Qian Yafen like this, even Yiyi had to admire her eloquence and pretense.

Mr. Mo, however, had a serious expression. He looked at Qian Yafen and asked, "Yafen, is what you said true? You couldn’t have really done such a thing, could you?"

"Dad, I definitely wouldn’t do such a thing. Can’t you trust me?"

Hearing this, Mr. Mo couldn’t help but nod.

And when Ding Yuejun heard Mr. Mo’s words, she knew he didn’t believe Yiyi and Mo Bajin but instead trusted Qian Yafen completely.

Thinking of this, Ding Yuejun was full of resentment, "Dad, Mo Bajin has spoken very clearly; it must be Qian Yafen who wanted to harm Yiyi."

Qian Yafen looked at Ding Yuejun with a face full of sadness and said, "Sister-in-law, I have always treated you kindly. Why would you think I’d harm Yiyi? It’s all lies that Mo Bajin is telling; don’t believe him."

At this moment, Mo Guowei stood up and looked at Ding Yuejun impatiently, "Why don’t you trust your own family and instead believe an outsider? What Mo Bajin said is obviously nonsense, yet you believe it. Apologize to your sister-in-law right away; before you pushed her and now you’re falsely accusing her." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Hearing Mo Guowei’s words, Yiyi’s face was full of sarcasm.

This was her father, always standing with outsiders, never considering her and her mother.

But Ding Yuejun looked deeply at Mo Guowei and asked in a low voice, "Don’t you believe Yiyi?"

"She just said someone pushed her, which doesn’t necessarily mean it was our sister-in-law who instructed Mo Bajin; it could be someone else."

Upon hearing this, Qian Yafen added from the side, "Exactly, sister-in-law, maybe someone else used Mo Bajin. Don’t trust him lightly."

Mo Bajin, who hadn’t spoken much, finally spoke up.

He looked coldly at Qian Yafen, then pulled out a handkerchief and said, "This is the handkerchief Qian Yafen dropped when secretly giving me money to do her bidding. I think you all recognize this handkerchief, don’t you?"

It was a red and blue checkered handkerchief, looking quite ordinary, perhaps even a bit worn. But Ding Yuejun recognized it immediately; it was Qian Yafen’s handkerchief, she’d seen it before.

"Qian Yafen, so it was you after all."

Ding Yuejun glared at Qian Yafen with hatred and rushed forward.

However, before Ding Yuejun could reach her, Mo Guowei held her back, "What can this little handkerchief prove? It might not even be our sister-in-law’s."

"I’ve seen her use this handkerchief, could it possibly be fake?" Ding Yuejun looked at Mo Guowei in disbelief and said solemnly, "Do you even know that if Yiyi was unlucky, she could have lost her life."

"But Yiyi is fine now, isn’t she?"

Mo Guowei instinctively replied.

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun could no longer restrain herself. She picked up the rice bowl beside her and smashed it into Mo Guowei’s face, "Your daughter almost lost her life, and you not only don’t worry but keep protecting those who harm her. What on earth are you thinking?"

Mo Guowei’s cheek stung painfully, leaving him momentarily stunned.

It was Qian Yafen who reacted quickly. She stepped forward immediately, looking disapproving, "Sister-in-law, how can you not believe me just because of a handkerchief? Such checkered handkerchiefs are common, and although I have one, others might too."

Mo Meina had been sitting with her head lowered, her face full of shock, but she didn’t dare show it in case others noticed something suspicious.

But in her heart, she was truly shocked.

Though she didn’t like Mo Yiyi either, she had never thought of pushing her down a slope; the terrain at Songshan was steep, and one misstep could be fatal.

But upon hearing Qian Yafen’s words, Ding Yuejun looked at her directly and asked, "Then where is your checkered handkerchief?"

"Mine was torn by Meina yesterday, so I threw it away. Meina, you really need to be more careful."

Mo Meina, being mentioned, looked up dazedly. But when she saw her mother’s expression, she instinctively nodded and said, "Yes, I really was careless."

Ding Yuejun observed the mother-daughter duo’s reaction, snorted coldly, and said, "Such a coincidence doesn’t exist; stop making excuses."

At that moment, Mo Guoping, who had been sitting all along, stood up. He quickly walked over to Mo Bajin and punched him to the ground, "You bastard, deliberately coming to our house to stir up trouble. I’ll beat you to death."

Mo Bajin didn’t immediately react, but soon he and Mo Guoping were wrestling on the ground.

Mo Guoping, after all, was old, and when pushed by Mo Bajin, he fell to the ground.

Mo Bajin then looked at Qian Yafen and said, "Qian Yafen, I’ve done what you asked; you’d better settle the money with me." After saying this, he left directly.
