Chapter 437: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 437: Almost Disfigured (2)
Although Mo Yan and Mo Yongxi were only a little over a year apart in age, Mo Yan had lived well in this world—eating and drinking well, benefiting from the solid cultivation of Spirit Spring water, which greatly enhanced her physical strength compared to Mo Yongxi, who had a much rougher life. When Mo Yan exerted force, it caused Mo Yongxi to cry out in pain immediately, and her curses became increasingly vulgar.
"...Let go, let go! You bastard child born without a mother dares to bully me. You disrespect your elders, you'll be struck down by divine punishment, struck down, you bastard, struck down..."
Mo Yan turned a deaf ear. Even if divine punishment were a thing, it wouldn't apply to her. She watched as Mo Yongxi struggled like a madwoman. Suddenly releasing the hand she was holding, Mo Yan looked on expressionlessly as Mo Yongxi fell to the ground from the inertia.
"You've insulted me like this. It seems you don't want to accompany me. Since that's the case, don't follow us. Let's each go our own way."
Mo Yan finished speaking and ignored Mo Yongxi's thunderous curses. She took Sanni'er and Xiao Shitou, who were somewhat scared, and turned away.
Zhen'er and the others were eager to leave annoying Mo Yongxi behind and quickly followed Big Sister.
Mo Qingze also disliked this rude and unreasonable cousin, but it wasn't appropriate to cause a scene here. He originally intended to help her up, but seeing her continue to spew foul language, he couldn't be bothered and left with the others.
Mo Yongxi, who refused to get up from the ground, watched as her cousin's family really left her behind, and suddenly anger and hatred overwhelmed her, contorting her features.
They dared to treat her like this, just because they had a few measly coins? Her parents had kindly raised this child who would ruin her real parents, never expecting her to raise such an ingrate who not only didn't give their family money, but also caused Third Brother to be exiled, not even knowing if he was alive or dead. He was worse than a beast.
And those few bastards, once allowed to beat and scold them, now lived in a mansion, wearing new clothes and climbing on her head! Why should they be allowed to laugh at her, why, why!
At that moment, Mo Yongxi became more and more unwilling and hateful. Seeing the family in the distance laughing and talking, her heart ached! Especially seeing Mo Yan, who shared her surname, younger but more beautiful and better dressed than her, suddenly, jealousy and hatred spread like wild weeds in her heart, an evil voice inside her constantly urging her: Destroy her, destroy her, once she's destroyed, what else does she have to compare with you...
By now, Mo Yongxi had fallen into madness and was unconsciously driven by evil thoughts. She picked up a shard of a broken bowl from the ground, sharp edges glinting in the sunlight, filled with chilling intent.
Unaware of the impending danger, Mo Yan gently comforted Sanni'er and Xiao Shitou, teaching them auspicious New Year's Greetings and tempting them with sugar cubes as a reward if they could say them during the New Year's greetings.
The fragrant and sweet sugar cubes were as tempting to the children as new clothes for the New Year. Although the two children were timid and afraid of saying the wrong things, they shyly nodded in agreement under the temptation of the sugar cubes.
"Great! After we finish our New Year's greetings, you can come home with your sister, and I'll cook delicious dumplings for you." Mo Yan pinched their tiny faces, affectionately saying.
At the mention of dumplings, the eyes of the two children lit up, subconsciously swallowing their saliva. Sanni'er shyly looked up at Mo Yan, wanting to say "thank you" to her cousin, but when she glanced behind her cousin, her bright eyes suddenly filled with deep fear. "Big Sister, be careful—"
Before Mo Yan could react to what was happening, it was already too late. A forceful impact came from behind, and she fell uncontrollably onto the cold, hard ground. In her ear, she heard Mo Yongxi's malicious voice:
"You little bitch, die—"
From Sanni'er's terrified scream to Mo Yan being knocked to the ground, it all happened in an instant. Mo Qingze and the others, who had been walking ahead, suddenly turned around, only to witness a scene that made their eyes widen in fury. Mo Qingze froze as if frozen, letting out a roar, "Mo Yongxi, how dare you!"
This roar caused Mo Yongxi's right hand to pause for a moment. Then, with renewed force, she viciously slashed the shard of the bowl towards Mo Yan's face.
Seeing the sharp edges about to deeply pierce the face that made her jealous and furious, Mo Yongxi's entire body boiled with blood. Driven by sheer determination to ruin Mo Yan's appearance and her entire life!
Mo Yan, dizzy from the impact, couldn't react in time. By the time she realized a cold object was against her cheek, with a slight stinging sensation, it was too late to break free.
Mo Qingze was also too late to rescue her, only able to watch helplessly as the shard was about to deeply pierce his daughter's face.
At this critical moment, no one knew what happened, but Mo Yongxi's entire body flew out like a kite with a broken string. She only managed to let out a tragic scream before crashing heavily to the ground. Upon impact, she unexpectedly spat out a mouthful of blood, clearly having suffered internal injuries.
Mo Yan, not having time to figure out what had happened, quickly got up from the ground, comforting Xiao Shitou who was crying loudly from fright.
"Yan'er, are you alright? Did you get hurt?" Mo Qingze rushed over and carefully examined Mo Yan's face. Seeing only a red mark on her left cheek without any broken skin or bleeding, he couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. Only then did he turn to deal with the culprit.
At this moment, Mo Yongxi had already fainted. Her face was as pale as death, the blood at the corner of her mouth making her look pitiful. No one present sympathized with her. The commotion had already attracted many villagers passing by, who had witnessed Mo Yongxi's attack. However, when Mo Yongxi attacked, she inexplicably flew out, which was very strange. They looked on from a distance, discussing in whispers, but no one dared to approach.
"Dad, Mo Yongxi is so malicious. She almost ruined Sister. This time we can't let her off. She must receive the heaviest punishment." Xin'er's eyes were red, wishing she could kick her hard a few times, and she even refused to call her cousin anymore.
