Chapter 510: The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor
Chapter 510: The Unexpected Ruse (1)
Hong shi's buttocks hurt badly, and she was frightened by Wu shi. She was completely at a loss and didn't know what to do. Hearing her daughter's words at this moment, the little bit of guilt she had felt vanished instantly. In her eyes, Wu shi's painful expression was entirely an act, aimed at ruining her reputation in front of others and making her give up the silver she had in hand. It was truly hateful!
"You wretched woman, how dare you play tricks right under my nose! I'll beat you to death, you ungrateful wretch!" Hong shi's anger surged. She stood up abruptly and kicked Wu shi hard in the stomach. "Keep pretending, I'll make you keep pretending! If I don't teach you a lesson today, others will think my Mo family has no discipline!"
One kick wasn't enough to calm her anger. Ignoring Wu shi's screams, Hong shi lifted her right foot high and stomped down heavily again. She didn't consider that the Mo family's reputation was already in ruins in Liuyang Village. Her own reputation as a cruel mother-in-law who mistreated her daughter-in-law and loved to stir up trouble had spread to neighboring villages. She had no reputation left to speak of!

With that stomp, Wu shi's frail body couldn't bear it. Her pale face and increasingly weak cries told everyone about her fragility. How could she withstand such a heavy blow?
A few nearby villagers, unable to bear it any longer, wanted to stop Hong shi's violence, but it was too late. They could only watch helplessly as her heavy foot came down on the prostrate Mo Wushi, who couldn't even sit up.
"No! Grandma, no!"
Mo Dani, who had been following Wu shi, had just arrived and witnessed this horrifying scene. She screamed shrilly and, without thinking, threw herself onto Wu shi, her frail body protecting her equally frail mother.
Wu shi couldn't stop her daughter in time. She felt a weight on her body as Hong shi's heavy foot came down. She clearly heard the dull thud as it landed on her daughter's shoulder and back.
"Ah—"
Mo Dani let out a cry of pain, her face drained of color, and her right arm hung limply to the ground as if it had lost all support.
Hong shi's stomp had actually broken Mo Dani's shoulder blade.
The sudden turn of events shocked everyone present.
Niu shi, who had been sitting on a rock watching the spectacle, widened her eyes and stood up abruptly. She started to walk towards Mo Dani, but after a few steps, as if thinking of something, a look of struggle crossed her face. She saw Mo Dani, drenched in sweat from the pain and on the verge of fainting, and finally stopped in her tracks.
"Dani, Dani, my child, why are you so foolish? Why are you so foolish..." Wu shi wept bitterly, holding the unconscious Mo Dani, crying out in grief.
At this moment, she forgot all her calculations, forgot about her plans to separate and live a peaceful and happy life with her children away from the Mo family. She was just a mother, a mother heartbroken for her injured child!
Wu shi's helpless wails echoed in the hearts of every villager under the ancient poplar tree. Many felt secretly guilty for not stepping up earlier to stop Hong shi's violence, causing such suffering for the mother and daughter.
Hong shi was too heartless, to lay such a heavy hand on her own granddaughter, she was simply inhuman!
A straightforward woman couldn't help but step forward to defend Wu shi and her daughter, "Mo Daye, they're your daughter-in-law and granddaughter, how can you not feel any remorse for being so harsh on them?"
