The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl
Chapter 36: Farewell Forever
But before Qian Yafen could come up with a plan, Old Mrs. Mo directly confronted her.
"Yafen, explain this to me today. Did you really spend a hundred bucks to get Mo Bajin to teach Yiyi a lesson? Do you have money to burn?"
Upon hearing Old Mrs. Mo’s words, Qian Yafen quickly waved her hand and said: "Mom, how can you not believe me? I really didn’t ask Mo Bajin to teach Yiyi a lesson."
"Hmph... still trying to fool me. Do you really take me for a fool?"
Seeing the youngest daughter-in-law deny it, Old Mrs. Mo could only feel her anger rising. "Hurry up and tell me clearly, did you give him money or not?"
Mo Guoping, standing on the side, couldn’t help but say: "Yafen, even if you wanted to teach Yiyi a lesson, there’s no need to pay someone to do it. If Yiyi made a mistake, just tell Big Brother so he can properly discipline her."
Faced with Old Mrs. Mo and her husband like this, Qian Yafen knew they had already made up their minds about her involvement. She also blamed her daughter for causing trouble; otherwise, she could have stayed completely out of it.
"Mom, Guoping, of course, I didn’t spend any unnecessary money. But it is my fault; once, when I was doing laundry by the river, I grumbled a bit about Yiyi, mentioned some money issues, and somehow, Mo Bajin overheard me as he passed by. He thought he should teach Yiyi a lesson and then came to me for money. That handkerchief I lost during laundry was picked up by Mo Bajin."
Old Mrs. Mo looked skeptically at her youngest daughter-in-law and asked: "Really?"
"Mom, of course, it’s true. Otherwise, Mo Bajin wouldn’t have come to our house asking for money." Knowing what Old Mrs. Mo was concerned about, Qian Yafen directly brought up the money issue.
Hearing this, Old Mrs. Mo indeed nodded and said, "It’s good that no money was given."
Old Mr. Mo then looked at his youngest daughter-in-law and asked, "Exactly what did Yiyi do before that made you so angry that you wanted to discipline her?"
Mo Guowei, upon hearing his father’s words, also looked curiously at Qian Yafen.
"Actually, it wasn’t a big deal. Yiyi said a few harsh words to me before, and as an elder, I got a little upset, so I privately grumbled a few words."
Hearing this, Mo Guowei said furiously, "That brat Yiyi is getting more and more out of control."
"Alright, anyway, that dead girl Yiyi will be with Ding Yuejun in the future, so just leave her be."
Upon hearing this, Mo Guowei hesitated, "Mom, is it really going to be like this...?"
Old Mrs. Mo gave her eldest son a disdainful look and said, "What, don’t you want to have a son?" She knew her eldest son’s inner struggle, so she directly pressured him with her words.
Just thinking about how Ding Yuejun mentioned divorce made her angry. Guowei was so good, yet Ding Yuejun, that orphan, dared to bring up divorce. Did she really think the family couldn’t survive without her? She wanted to see how Ding Yuejun would live, a divorced woman with a burden, away from the Mo family.
Hearing his mother’s words, Mo Guowei fell silent.
"Mom, do you really want to let Big Brother and Sister-in-law get divorced? They’ve been a couple for so many years..." Mo Guoping hadn’t finished speaking when he felt a sharp pain in his side, finally silencing him.
Old Mrs. Mo glanced at her youngest son and said, "Your words are wrong. It’s your sister-in-law who insists on getting a divorce. We’re just fulfilling her wish."
Mo Guoping, hearing this, had nothing more to say. However, once they returned to their room, he frowned as he looked at his wife and said: "Yafen, why didn’t you let me finish? Even though Big Brother and Sister-in-law argue sometimes, Yiyi is grown up now. Why go through a divorce? Besides, your actions did play a part in this, so we should try to stop it."
Qian Yafen stared at her husband for a moment and said quietly, "Do you think this is my fault?"
Seeing his wife like this, Mo Guoping fell silent.
Usually, it was his wife who handled the family affairs, and she made most of the decisions. He was just shocked by the news of Big Brother and Sister-in-law’s divorce, which is why he spoke as he did earlier. Reflecting on it, it wasn’t entirely his wife’s fault. After all, it started with Yiyi’s wrongdoing, which led to his wife’s complaints, and who would’ve guessed Mo Bajin would overhear and stir things up?
Seeing her husband go quiet, Qian Yafen’s expression softened a bit, "Guoping, I know I was somewhat wrong this time. Tomorrow, I’ll try to persuade Sister-in-law again."
But the next day, Ding Yuejun got up early, packed up things for her, Yiyi, and Mo Shan, prepared a sumptuous breakfast, and after inviting her daughter and granddaughter to eat, went directly to Mo Guowei.
"Alright, we can go to town now."
Seeing the cold expression on Ding Yuejun’s face, Mo Guowei felt a bit dazed.
The woman before him, weathered and worn, was vastly different from the one who had once married into the family. Younger Ding Yuejun was very beautiful; even though she was just an orphan raised by an old woman, he had been pleased to marry her.
At first, they were doing quite well. But since Yiyi was born, he had grown cold towards her, primarily because she hadn’t given birth to a son.
Despite everything, he thought he was decent to her, but he never imagined Ding Yuejun would insist on a divorce.
"What are you standing there for? Let’s go to town and get the paperwork done already."
Seeing Mo Guowei stand there, Yiyi snorted and said: "What does your expression mean? You didn’t show the slightest support for us before."
Hearing Yiyi’s words, Mo Guowei finally snapped out of it, his face filled with anger. "Mo Yiyi, what are you saying? Is this how you talk to your father?"
"You soon won’t be."
Ding Yuejun stood protectively in front of Yiyi, fully supporting her.
"You..."
Mo Guowei, upon hearing this, felt even angrier.
At that moment, Old Mrs. Mo approached, giving her eldest son a disapproving look, "Why haven’t you left yet? Hurry up and get it over with."
Ding Yuejun looked at Old Mrs. Mo, her expression extremely calm.
Facing her mother-in-law, who had never liked her, she felt nothing but indifference.
Old Mrs. Mo, already in a bad mood, felt even worse upon seeing Ding Yuejun’s attitude, urging Mo Guowei to go finalize the divorce.
In the end, Mo Guowei followed Ding Yuejun to the town, and when they processed the divorce, both Yiyi and Mo Xiaohong were added under Ding Yuejun’s name.
Initially, Ding Yuejun intended to ask Xiaohong before acting, but Mo Shan, a clever child, directly begged and fussed until she put both her mother and herself in Ding Yuejun’s care.
After completing the paperwork, Ding Yuejun gave Mo Guowei a distant look.
"Mo Guowei, farewell."
