Chapter 21 The Instigator
"Mom, I'll help you search. I refuse to believe this money can just disappear."
Mu Baogui suddenly sat up in bed and got out of bed to put on his shoes.
Mu Xiaowan said calmly, "Go ahead and search. If the Chu family loses something valuable and reports it to the police, it won't be so easy for you to go back."
"You brat, do you think we're scared?" Liu Guilan shouted, but she stopped moving.
The Chu family members are all government employees; we can't afford to offend them.
Mu Xiaowan had just gone back to her room to get twenty yuan, and she handed the money to Liu Guilan.
"This is all the money I have. Take it if you want it, or leave it."
Liu Guilan, seeing the money, naturally wanted it and snatched it away, unbuttoning her cotton-padded jacket and stuffing it into her inner pocket.
If Mu Xiaowan hadn't squeezed it loosely, she definitely would have torn the money to shreds with her strength.
"Sister-in-law, come with me for a moment, I have something to tell you."
When He Yongli saw Mu Xiaowan call her alone, she was overjoyed.
She thought Mu Xiaowan would give her all the money and gold.
Mu Xiaowan is quite perceptive; she is the only sister-in-law. After the two elders pass away, she will be the only one left in her maternal family.
If you don't treat her well now, you can forget about ever coming to her house again.
"Hey, you brat, why can't you say things in front of everyone? We're your family, why are you siding with outsiders? Even that He family boy doesn't want you anymore."
In Liu Guilan's eyes, Mu Xiaowan was all looks and no substance; she was dull, stupid, and brainless. She was bossed around by the He family without ever knowing how to resist.
Normally, He Yongli would have Mu Xiaowan wash even her underwear at home, and Mu Xiaowan would empty her chamber pot in the morning.
If He Yongli asked her for money or gold, she might secretly give it all to her.
Mu Xiaowan thought that the original owner really had a "good" mother who would rub salt into her daughter's wounds just to get money.
But there's no need for her to rush to explain now; someone else is in a more urgent situation than she is.
He Yongli quickly tried to appease Liu Guilan, saying, "Mom, what are you saying? Aren't I also a member of the Mu family? Although it was my brother who was in the wrong, Xiaowan and I have no grudge against each other. You're trying to sow discord between us."
"Besides, isn't mine precious? Isn't yours precious too?"
He Yongli easily won over Liu Guilan with just a few words.
Mu Xiaowan led He Yongli to the rooftop terrace. Without beating around the bush, she said coldly, "He Yongli, who gave you the audacity to come here and ask me for money? You know better than anyone what dirty things your brother did. It was your He family who wronged me first. I'm already being lenient by not asking for compensation, and you still have the nerve to come knocking on my door."
"You're definitely out of money and gold today. I advise you to leave as soon as possible. I've already given my mother the money for your return trip. I think you have plenty of ways to get it back."
He Yongli's smile gradually froze.
"Mu Xiaowan, what do you mean by this? Were you really just trying to fool us with those words?"
He Yongli stared intently at Mu Xiaowan; Mu Xiaowan wouldn't have dared to speak to her like that before.
But the Mu Xiaowan in front of her was cold and indifferent, and had a domineering aura. She couldn't quite put her finger on what had changed.
But it felt like the Mu Xiaowan in front of me was completely different from before, except that her appearance hadn't changed.
Mu Xiaowan said, "Don't you think about it? I'm just a country bumpkin. Why should I expect people to treat me so well? Where would I get so much money and gold?"
Seeing that Mu Xiaowan was determined not to give her money, He Yongli stopped pretending.
"Mu Xiaowan, what you're doing is wrong. Since you want to argue this point properly, then I'll argue it with you."
"Back then, our two families arranged a marriage between two families, and my family didn't ask for a single penny of betrothal gifts. Now that you're not marrying my brother, shouldn't your Mu family give me back the betrothal gifts?"
He Yongli slapped her handprint with the back of her hand, making a slapping sound.
"And you should also pay for my brother's betrothal gifts. Don't think we don't know you've been flirting with other men and gotten pregnant with their children. You're the one who's been unfaithful and wronged him. How dare you say that?"
If she wasn't pregnant, why would anyone marry her?
She has nothing, and she doesn't deserve it.
“If you don’t give me this money, I’ll go back and divorce your brother immediately. Niu Niu is my son, so of course I’ll take him with me. He will be a child of the He family from now on.”
Niu Niu is the son of He Yongli and Mu Baogui, the apple of Liu Guilan's eye and the lifeblood of her entire family.
Whenever He Yongli argued with Mu Baogui, she would use these words to threaten him.
Not only that, she would also threaten divorce and the children if any family member did not meet her expectations.
It works every time!
Just when He Yongli thought Mu Xiaowan had given in, Mu Xiaowan was not in a hurry at all.
"Whether you get a divorce or not is your business, and who gets custody of the children is also your business. If you have a dispute that goes on to the point where there is a court ruling, what does that have to do with me?"
She sneered.
"As for your brother, the He family really has the nerve to say that. In the end, I have to thank him for allowing me to marry into the Chu family. If it weren't for him sending me to Chu Junbai's bed in order to climb the social ladder, I wouldn't have this wealthy life."
He Yongli felt a little guilty. How did Mu Xiaowan know about this?
Mu Xiaowan took in her expression.
“If you don’t want me to expose the dirty things your brother did to his boss, you’d better leave with my mom and the others right now.”
If He Yongli hadn't instigated this, so many people wouldn't have come all this way.
So if she doesn't go after He Yongli, the instigator, who should she go after?
Everyone in Hejia Village and their village knows that He Yongli is a "brother-supporting demon" and He Yongsheng is her weakness.
"At that point, let alone whether your brother can stay in the army, he probably won't even get a proper job. You can try it if you don't believe me."
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. Chu Junbai holds a higher position than your brother. Do you think he can still get by peacefully even if I whisper in his ear and don't talk to his boss?"
"As for Niu Niu, go back and educate him properly, and instill the right values in him. As long as you don't teach him wrong, Niu Niu is my nephew. If I get better in the future, I will always help him out."
You have to give someone something sweet after you slap them.
He Yongli was still unwilling to accept that her gold bracelet was gone.
She yelled, "Mu Xiaowan, how have you become so vicious? You're more venomous than a snake! Don't you plan to ever set foot in your parents' home again?"
Mu Xiaowan shrugged. "Now that you're making such a fuss and disrupting my life, do you think I'd still care about going back to my parents' home?"
"Since I'm not pursuing this, you should be grateful. Why don't we just live our own peaceful lives instead of fighting to the death?"
"I've lost my reputation, and at worst I'll be kicked out of the Chu family. What do you think I have to be afraid of?"
Mu Xiaowan's gaze fell on the car that was approaching from not far away.
The car stopped, and when she saw who got out, she gave a cold, curt smile.
