Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife-Chapter 79: That’s Too Much!

"Huh?"

Just as everyone was preparing to mock Li Qingmu again, his words choked all the voices in their throats, and someone even accidentally choked and coughed harshly on the side.

Mrs. Li Zhou was dumbfounded.

This kind of thing shouldn’t be said, after all, there’s a lot to be said about his background, and if the Li family’s protection is lost, his origins might cause trouble for everyone.

The key is that this son has now become a scholar and will definitely become an official in the future. She still wants to rely on him to lead a wealthy life, how could she let go so easily?

She said those things before just to put some pressure on him, hoping he would retreat knowingly, apologize to her, and then everyone would keep to themselves. When he becomes affluent, she could still benefit, how great would that be?

But now this brat actually pulled this stunt?

You little scoundrel, you’re really ruthless!

Mrs. Li Zhou felt a surge of anger inside, feeling unbearably uncomfortable. Before, she had a carefree attitude when kicking Li Qingmu and his wife out of the house, but now she felt like was tossed aside like trash.

You little beast!

"You, nonsense!"

Mrs. Li Zhou gritted her teeth, experiencing the frustration of having to fill a pit she dug with tears in her eyes.

"Mother, who’s talking nonsense? When you chased me and my husband out of the house before, you said it yourself! You even threw the swaddle used for him at us. So, why are you denying it now?"

Long Yue shook the red swaddle in her hand and glanced at the approaching Aunt Ma, smiling, "Of course, it doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it, real proof is what counts. We can bring in the midwife who delivered you back then and have everyone question face-to-face."

"Let’s question then, back then I truly gave birth to this little beast, suffered quite a bit, and ended up with an ungrateful one, boohoo..."

Mrs. Li Zhou feigned pitifulness, drawing sympathy from many, and as Aunt Ma arrived, she said, "Li family’s sister, I can prove this matter. You indeed gave birth to a boy back then..."

Mrs. Li Zhou instantly felt relieved and even glared triumphantly at Long Yue.

But then, her expression changed drastically.

"Back then, you almost had a difficult labor; I exerted great effort to deliver him. But the child was thin, weak, seemed destined for early death. I remember he had a black mole behind his neck..."

"But my husband doesn’t have a black mole behind his neck, thus proving he truly isn’t the Li family’s child!"

"Oh, really not? If he’s not biologically yours, then where did the Li family’s child go?"

"I’m curious about where he came from?"

Aunt Ma’s words shocked the villagers, causing a heated discussion.

Long Yue cast a subtle glance at Aunt Ma, exchanged eye contact, and then turned to look at Mrs. Li Zhou.

"Mother, you kicked us out when my husband failed in the exams, and you made it clear then he wasn’t your biological son.

Although heartless, we cannot be ungrateful. To repay your upbringing kindness, we left the house empty-handed and gave you the invaluable jade pendant and the newly cultivated two acres of medicine field, enough for the Li family to live comfortably for a lifetime. Isn’t that enough?

But then you heard my husband succeeded, hurriedly came looking for us, appeared to curse, but actually wanted to reclaim this bond and cling to my husband for a wealthy life? Ha, all good and bad things were reaped by the Li family, with people and ghosts talking, leaving my husband and I with a cursed reputation? You’re really our good mother!"

"Mrs. Pang! You shameless woman, speaking to mother like this? I’m... I’m going to strangle you!"

Being openly exposed, without any cover, in front of so many villagers, Mrs. Li Zhou truly hated Long Yue to the bone, grinding her teeth with such hatred, making her teeth ache. So, she screamed and, compelled by blind rage, lunged at Long Yue.

She was too angry, too exasperated, forgetting she wasn’t on Long Yue’s level, and thus lunged forward, only to be overturned by Long Yue’s push!

"Mother-in-law, I’m not A Mu; he owes you for raising him, so even if you go to excessive lengths, he can’t do anything against you! But I’m different; don’t use those tricks on me, or I’ll make you regret being born into this world!"

Long Yue pushed hard, Mrs. Li Zhou’s bottom hit the ground, feeling shattered into pieces, she screamed in pain, lifted her eyes to see Long Yue still looking fierce.

It turned out her previous mildness was an illusion!

"Oh dear, look at this little bitch, little beast, all wanting to end this old lady’s life... Oh God, why is my life so miserable, the little brat should’ve been drowned in the river back then to spare me from this current suffering..."

"Li family’s sister, your words have gone too far. Over the years, Sanlang has earned quite a bit of silver, when your husband broke his leg requiring medicine money, Sanlang went up the mountain to cut wood for money. Ah, quite a good lad..."

The speaker was Aunt Ma, who felt the paper slip in her sleeve, smiling sweetly.

"Good my ass!" Mrs. Li Zhou exploded. Aunt Ma was clearly helping them, and she didn’t understand what Soul Enchanting Soup Long Yue had given her to make her speak up for them?

At this moment, Li Qingmu, who had been silent, suddenly looked up with a pained expression and said, "Mother, the upbringing kindness over the years, I, Li Qingmu, will always remember, thus when you felt my illness would burden you, we willingly left without taking a penny from the household, only, this cloak was borrowed from a friend, really not suitable to give you, but you argued endlessly over it... cough cough cough..."

Just as Li Qingmu said this, he suddenly leaned on Long Yue, coughing harshly, the wounds on his arms and his pale complexion revealing to everyone that his words were true.

People tend to sympathize with the weak, making themselves appear superior, so the looks cast at Mrs. Li Zhou were not very friendly.

"This child clearly has a lingering ailment; alas, poor thing, fearing he will suffer in the future..."

"Though unclear what happened with the Li family, they raised him for so many years, surely they developed some feelings? If considered a burden, giving some silver for them to live separately seems reasonable, yet Mrs. Li Zhou wouldn’t even spare what others gave them, that’s excessive!"

"Tsk, all the fuss from Lady Li is about that fur coat, huh! Saying it’s indeed valuable, I’m envious, but I wouldn’t fight a sick person for something, this is life-saving; removing this cloak in such a cold winter, at his current state he’d freeze to death, such mindless behavior, I wouldn’t engage!"

"Li family’s folk, conduct with some conscience."

An elderly man parted the crowd, walking out, unexpectedly being the village chief of this village.

Normally indifferent to matters, but once involved, it means significant issues.
