Chapter 272: Let’s Go Back Home

Mo Shujun was so angry that she even burst into laughter. She glared at Shi Qingxue ferociously and snorted. “Do you think it is possible?”

Was she joking?

She could hardly agree to let Dong Hui return to their mansion, and Shi Qingxue even dreamed that she would go to the Dong family’s mansion to beg Dong Hui to come back. The girl just tried to step on her dignity.

Humph!

They couldn’t try to think about it. Mo Shujun wouldn’t surrender because of that.

Shi Qingxue shrugged indifferently and stated, “In this case, tomorrow I will give the two confessions in my hands to the government to put on record. If the people in the government don’t handle it, I still have a say in front of the Empress Dowager. I believe that she is willing to uphold justice for me.”

“You…” Mo Shujun trembled out of anger.

She had never expected that Shi Qingxue would be so reckless as to ruin Shi Juncai’s fame.

“Are you threatening me?”

Shi Qingxue looked at Mo Shujun horizontally and even pursed her lips in a good mood, saying impassively, “How would I dare to? It’s just that you should pay the debt you owe. Mother has suffered from too much injustice in this mansion. I just want to make her feel better. Is it too much?

“Moreover, if you go to the Dong family’s mansion, you would do her justice and it appears that you love your daughter-in-law. Even if the news spreads, it will be a story passed on with approval and benefit everybody. If you insist on refusing, I will have nothing to say.”

Knowing that Mo Shujun attached importance to the public opinion, Qingxue didn’t force her to lose face in public but figured out a way to protect each party’s fame.

However, in this case, Mo Shujun couldn’t express her annoyance, so perhaps she was more depressed.

Mo Shujun’s old face changed sharply, with hatred, reluctance, anxiety, worry…

In an instant, she suddenly concealed all her emotions and lowered her head, saying in a calm and hoarse voice, “Okay. I’ll go.”

Shi Qingxue finished something important and finally showed a satisfied smile.

However, on second thought, she didn’t have confidence in Mo Shujun’s moral quality, so she suggested, “It’s no need to choose a lucky day. I am willing to go to the Dong family’s mansion with you tomorrow and we can have a talk with Mother.”

Mo Shujun raised her eyes and glanced at Shi Qingxue in silence.

She just coldly told the girl to leave. “Okay. You have finished what you want to say. Get out of here now.”

The next morning, Mo Shujun got into the carriage and went to the Dong family’s mansion once more.

However, different from her complacency and planning to watch a good play the other day, she felt resentful and entered the gate of the Dong family’s mansion unwillingly.

This time, she was treated much worse than last time.

Dong Hui said that she was ill and didn’t come out. Only Ouyang Yuxin came in an unhurried manner.

Ouyang Yuxin saw Mo Shujun and thought that the princess royal came because of her daughter’s divorce settlement, so she indifferently told her to leave the mansion. “Hui has clearly said in the letter what she should say. Now we have nothing to talk about. Get out now.”

Perhaps it was Mo Shujun’s first time to hear somebody tell her to “get out”, so she was embarrassed and furious.

However, Ouyang Yuxin was a peer and Mo Shujun couldn’t put pressure on her as an elder. And Shi Qingxue had the evidence against her, so the princess royal didn’t dare to leave.

She endured everything in depression.

Shi Qingxue watched aside for quite a while and finally enjoyed Mo Shujun’s dejection enough. She felt that her mother wiped out a humiliation, so she was satisfied.

Since the main purpose of her arrival today was to take her mother back home, she couldn’t force Mo Shujun to a corner.

Qingxue thought for a while and then walked forward. She pulled Ouyang Yuxin to one side and explained in a low voice, “Grandma, there is a misunderstanding for what happened last time, so my paternal grandma came in person this time to address the misunderstanding and ask Mother to go back home.”

Hearing Shi Qingxue’s words, Ouyang Yuxin was joyful at first and thought that Dong Hui’s luck came after hardship as the Shi family finally came to pick her up, so she wouldn’t be looked down upon as an abandoned woman.

However, on second thought, she remembered that Mo Shujun acted like a tyrant here last time and made Dong Hui suffer from injustice, so she felt that her daughter didn’t deserve it.

Ouyang Yuxin concealed her smile and intentionally shouted loudly, “Misunderstanding? How can it be a misunderstanding? Didn’t you tell Duke Shi to have a concubine? He already had a wedding, right? How can you say that it’s a misunderstanding?”

Shi Qingxue started the subject but didn’t plan to explain for Mo Shujun, and she merely winked at her paternal grandma.

Mo Shujun understood. Although she was reluctant, she paused for a moment and then softened. “Yuxin, it’s really a misunderstanding. The maid Leng Yan is badly-behaved. How can she marry Junhe? I made a mistake in the past, and they didn’t have a wedding. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Qingxue. She knows everything.”

For the first time, Ouyang Yuxin saw that Mo Shujun was so soft and even called her name intimately, so she felt surprised.

Hearing that Shi Junhe didn’t marry Leng Yan, she was not so angry.

She just insisted and was unwilling to give in easily. “You said that he would marry another woman, and you even let a vicious servant bully the mistress, yet now you say that nothing happened? Duke Shi didn’t get married? So you played the villain in the past and now play the hero. You said everything and our family can do nothing but listen to your orders?

“It’s unreasonable. If you don’t give us a logical explanation today, I won’t let it go so easily.”

Ouyang Yuxin spoke quickly and asked Mo Shujun all the questions.

Her mean words were like sharp knives and stabbed Mo Shujun, who felt the pain all over her body.

Mo Shujun took a deep breath, thinking that she had come here and suffered from “injustice”. If she retreated at this hour, it would be unworthy.

It was better to comfort Dong Hui first and take her back home. Anyway, she was Dong Hui’s mother-in-law and it was easy to cope with her in the future.

At this thought, Mo Shujun restrained herself again and even showed a flattering smile on her face. Because she was not skilled, she looked weird.

She softened her tone and then explained, “In the past…I didn’t handle it well and hurt Hui’s heart. I don’t want to defend myself, but anyway, we are family. Today I came specially because I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with her and then ask her to go back home with me. Then our family would get together. Is that okay?”

Holy crap!

This was probably Mo Shujun’s first time to forget her honorable identity and behave like a civilian in front of outsiders since she became the “princess royal”.

Not to mention Ouyang Yuxin, even Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but sigh with emotion as Mo Shujun was able to “bow and rise at will”.

“Humph! You just said something nice!” Ouyang Yuxin still looked angry, yet she softened obviously.

After all, Dong Hui was Mo Shujun’s daughter-in-law and would return to live in Duke Shi’s mansion in the future. If Ouyang Yuxin worsened their relationship, it would be bad.

Ouyang Yuxin murmured for a while and then finally agreed. “Okay. Since you are so sincere and have promised to treat Hui well, I will forget this misunderstanding and won’t bother about it anymore. I will let Hui go…”

Before she said the word “back”, a cold voice cut in. “I won’t go back.”

Dong Hui walked out of the inner room with a ghastly pale face and glanced over the crowd coldly, expressing her determination.

Ouyang Yuxin just thought that her daughter started to act rashly again, so she hurriedly walked forward to pull Dong Hui out of anger and cursed in a low voice, “What nonsense are you talking about? The princess royal came in person to pick you up, and she has apologized. Your husband didn’t plan to have a concubine behind your back. Why are you still stubborn?”

Dong Hui directly waved away Ouyang Yuxin’s hands and walked a few steps forward. She looked at Mo Shujun horizontally and stressed each word again. “I have divorced Shi Junhe. I won’t go back.”

Divorce?

Mo Shujun didn’t know this thing. Hearing Dong Hui suddenly talk about a divorce, she looked confused and turned to Shi Qingxue.

Seeing that, Shi Qingxue knew that something bad would happen. She walked forward in haste and grabbed Dong Hui’s arm to beg her. Then she asked in a low and sad voice, “Mother, will you abandon us?”

Dong Hui was stunned by Shi Qingxue’s pitiful expression.

Shi Qingxue decided promptly and pulled Dong Hui into the inner room. The latter loved her daughter and didn’t reject but followed Qingxue in.

There were only two people in the inner room. They stood face to face in silence for quite a while.

Dong Hui wanted to stress her determination once more, while Shi Qingxue stated in advance, “Mother, the letter you sent yesterday was blocked by me. I didn’t give it to Father and others don’t know this matter.”

“What?” Dong Hui was petrified and then expressed angrily, “You are messing about.”

Shi Qingxue acted shamelessly like a dead mouse feeling no cold and craned her neck. “I just did it. I don’t allow you to divorce Father. You can’t. You can’t…”

She shouted more and more loudly and it sounded that she was unreasonable.

However, her face was full of tears and she was fragile, unable to withstand even a single blow.

Even though Dong Hui lost her confidence in Shi Junhe, she couldn’t be completely indifferent to Shi Qingxue who acted like this.

She didn’t forcefully bring up the divorce anymore but sighed. “Why did you do that? It’s the elders’ business and has nothing to do with you. Even if, even if I divorce your father, we…”

While speaking, Dong Hui sobbed.

They had been a couple for so many years. How would a divorce settlement and the words that they would never see each other separate them?

Seeing that Dong Hui softened, Shi Qingxue took the opportunity and told her mother what had happened these days, including Mo Shujun and the third master family’s plot, the real reason why Leng Yan anxiously married her father and Shi Junhe’s helpless surrender.

In the end, she stressed, “Mother, do you think that Father is willing to marry Leng Yan? Grandma threatened him with the fact that you saw Master Yan secretly last time. She said that if he didn’t agree, she would ruin your fame. In order to protect your reputation, Father could do nothing but agree to marry Leng Yan…

“I know that you didn’t expect that, while everything has an exception. Father is so loyal to you, yet are you unwilling to make a concession?”

Knowing the truth that she had never expected, Dong Hui was dumbfounded and murmured, “I didn’t know. I didn’t know Junhe…”

“You know that Father is nice in every aspect, but he likes to keep silent when he does something. He did it for your good, yet he didn’t say anything, so there is a misunderstanding between you. Mother, now I have made it clear and beg you not to be mad at Father. He must feel sad, too.”

As Shi Qingxue spoke, tears fell from her eyes uncontrollably again.

She really didn’t want to see that her parents got a divorce because of such a misunderstanding. It was not worthwhile.

Dong Hui’s stunned expression faded away gradually and she started to feel sad for Shi Junhe.

In fact, she didn’t really want to part with Shi Junhe. She loved him so much, yet she had no other way to stop him from marrying another woman, so she had to ask for a divorce in despair.

However, it was different now.

She knew the truth and understood Shi Junhe’s helplessness, so she began to feel sad. She couldn’t help but say furiously, “So everything was your grandma’s plan? She even attempted to tell your father to marry a pregnant woman?”

Dong Hui almost gritted her teeth when she spoke out the last words.

She was clear that Mo Shujun didn’t like her all the time, while she had never expected that the old woman would treat her biological son so cruelly. It was so…

Since Dong Hui started to bear a grudge against Mo Shujun instead of Shi Junhe, Shi Qingxue nodded repeatedly and added the trimmings. “That’s right. Father is so miserable. He didn’t even have a say in this matter from the beginning but had to follow Grandma’s orders, and he couldn’t protest. Fortunately, we found the evidence against Leng Yan later, so the tragedy was avoided.”

“So the old woman came to apologize unprecedentedly this time, and it is your plan?” Dong Hui hated Mo Shujun to the bone and didn’t call her Mother anymore.

Shi Qingxue smiled and held her face with both hands, trying to ask for Dong Hui’s praise. “Did I do a good job?”

Dong Hui looked expressionless and glared at Shi Qingxue for a long time. Then she finally couldn’t help but smile while rubbing the girls’ nose tip. “Smart girl. Nobody is more capable than you.”

Shi Qingxue raised her chin arrogantly. “I am always smart.”

After laughing, she continued seriously, “Mother, Grandma has shown her attitude now. After you go back, nobody dares to speak evil of you. Please return home.”

Dong Hui looked serious and pondered for a long while. At last, after Shi Qingxue begged her, she nodded. “Okay. Let’s go back home.
