Chapter 508: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
## Chapter 508: Kicking Up Trouble (Part 2)
The fluffy, soft touch seemed to reach deep into Mo Yan's heart, miraculously lifting her spirits from the depths of despair.
In times like these, there were some things that couldn't be changed just by disapproval. Ultimately, she was just an ordinary person. Could she really oppose the entrenched feudal customs that had existed for centuries?
It was more productive to live well herself and grow stronger. In the future, if she encountered unfortunate women, she could lend a helping hand. That would count as a small act of kindness...
The three beasts keenly sensed Mo Yan's change in mood and began playing with her without reservation. Xiao Hua and Mao Tuan were especially mischievous, chasing their tails one moment, tumbling into a playful tussle the next, finding endless ways to amuse their master.

"Hahaha! Mao Tuan, you're so clumsy! Can't you use your claws to take off that cloth from your head?" Mo Yan pointed at Mao Tuan, who kept stumbling backwards, either bumping into walls or the stone table, instead of removing the black cloth, and burst into tears of laughter.
This guy was truly hopeless. No matter how many times they played this game, Mao Tuan still couldn't figure out how to untie the black cloth, despite it being loosely tied by Xiao Hua.
On the side, Xiao Hua excitedly darted around, howling with laughter, clearly teasing Mao Tuan.
Da Bai stood by, watching disdainfully with its aloof demeanor. It didn't hide its contempt as it observed Xiao Hua's antics. It had no intention of mating with such a foolish creature!
Xiao Hua was oblivious to Da Bai's thoughts. Ignoring its lack of interest in playing, Xiao Hua continued to pounce on it, nibbling ears and tugging tails with all its might, persistently "harassing" Da Bai.
Initially, Da Bai could ignore it. But after repeated attempts, especially when its sleek fur was left disheveled and unkempt, Da Bai couldn't take it anymore. It chased after Xiao Hua, ruthlessly roughhousing until Xiao Hua transformed from a majestic silver wolf into a disheveled "mud dog." Only then did it cease its one-sided "torture"!
Xiao Hua, however, was thoroughly satisfied. Covered in dirt, it circled around Da Bai, continually wagging its tail and emitting a pleading whimper. Despite being swatted away repeatedly by Da Bai's unceremonious paw, Xiao Hua showed no signs of stopping.
This creature not only loved mischief but was also a glutton for punishment!
Mo Yan's laughter didn't cease. Tears streamed down her face. The laughter of one person and three beasts echoed through the vast night, traveling far and wide...
Over the next few days, Mo Yan didn't venture outside, keeping a close watch on the affairs of the old Mo family. Little did she expect that the shamelessness of the old Mo family would once again reach new heights.
As Mo Yan anticipated, when the old Mo family mentioned driving out Wu Shi, it was merely a threat aimed at coercing her into surrendering the money and recipe she had earned over the past few months. They had no intention of actually writing a divorce decree.
After all, given the reputation and financial circumstances of the old Mo family, they didn't have spare silver to find a new bride for Mo Yongfu. Even if someone overlooked their reputation and the bride price, they would likely end up with a lazy, disreputable older girl or a widow with dependents—certainly not someone as capable as Wu Shi.
Seeing that Wu Shi refused to hand over the money despite their relentless pressure, Hong Shi and her daughter, along with Niu Shi, finally couldn't sit still. Taking advantage of the moment when Mo Wu Shi was at her stall, Niu Shi kicked open the dilapidated door and searched every inch of the house, not even sparing the mouse holes. Finally, in the crevice under the mattress, they unearthed four or five silver coins.
