You Can Be Persuaded But Not Forced

Mother Qin couldn’t care less about the gold and silver notes now. She was only thinking about how to get out of this place in one piece.

That night, she had seen someone come to Mo Ruyue’s house. It was said that he had bought the entire tiger. That was a whole tiger, and it looked like it weighed several hundred Jin. Just the meat alone was worth tens of taels of silver, not to mention the more valuable tiger skin and bones. It was said that it would not be a loss even if it was sold for ten taels of gold.

Not to mention ten taels of gold, even a few dozen taels of silver was enough to make people jealous.

Mother Qin felt that she should have more than half of the money. After all, it was only right for a daughter-in-law to replace her dead son in mourning.

Therefore, she had been wandering around the area for the past two days, looking for an opportunity.

Finally, the opportunity she had been waiting for had arrived.

Mo Ruyue hurriedly left the room and then rushed in, preparing to leave as soon as he found the gold notes.

Even if Mo Ruyue came back and found that the money was missing, she wouldn’t be able to find it.

Then, she would move to the city with the gold notes and the Qin family to live a good life. It wouldn’t be much more comfortable than staying in this small mountain village.

However, she didn’t expect that Mo Ruyue would return so quickly and that she didn’t even see the shadow of the gold notes.

“Qin Ming will naturally always be your son, but I was chased out of the house by you in front of everyone. If you want to visit Qin Ming’s home, don’t say you can’t find his grave.”

Mo Ruyue didn’t have any feelings for her cheap husband, whom she had never met before. She didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with pushing her out at this time. However, mother Qin thought that she had something on her and began to be persistent.

“What? Listen, listen, are you even human? Qin Ming is still your husband. What, now that he’s gone, you don’t want the identity of his wife? This house of yours is still my Qin family’s. If I didn’t pity you, would I have let you live in it?”

“If you don’t acknowledge your status as the Qin family’s daughter-in-law, then get out of this house! I don’t want my good intentions to be fed to the dogs for nothing!”

Mother Qin raised her voice. Just based on Mo Ruyue’s words, she could make her unable to stay in this village.

Mo Ruyue heard this and smiled slightly, revealing an expression that was exactly what he wanted. He said slowly, “Alright, then let’s see who’s the one being unreasonable today.”

Qin Shi was stunned. She didn’t expect Mo Ruyue to have such a reaction.

Originally, she had come to the Qin family to steal money and was caught red-handed. Now, she had personally delivered herself to the villagers to “judge”. Wasn’t this putting her on the shelf and roasting her over the fire?

Qin Shi was filled with regret. She hated herself for speaking too fast and sending her into such a dilemma.

“Judge, judge what? This is a matter that is set in stone. Even if it goes to the end of the world, I’m still in the right! Who else do you need to reason with?”

Now, Qin Shi could only insist that she was in the right in this matter and that she could not follow Mo Ruyue to make a scene in front of the whole village.

She glared at Mo Ruyue with her triangular eyes and said fiercely, “I’m telling you, quickly let go of me! Don’t look down on others just because you’re a little capable now. Although I’ve kicked you out of the house, your and the children’s household registration is still in my hands. If you anger me, Hmph!”

She had only said half of her sentence, leaving an unfinished taste for Mo Ruyue to taste.

It just so happened that Mo Ruyue was a person who could be persuaded by reason but not forced by force.

Sometimes, he would not even be affected by force or persuasion. Not only did the Qin clan’s threat not work, but it also added fuel to the fire.

“So what if I’ve annoyed you? Show me what you got. I’ll take it!”

After she finished speaking, she dragged Madam Qin out of the door and shouted at the same time, “Er Bao, go and invite uncle village chief over. Tell him that there was a thief in our house and I caught him. We’re waiting for him to uphold justice!”

Mo Ruyue’s voice was full of energy. Not only did Er Bao hear it, but half of the village was filled with her voice. Many villagers were alarmed and came out to check on the situation.

“Shut up! What are you shouting for? Who’s the thief? Let go of me!”

Qin Shi didn’t think that Mo Ruyue really intended to use her as a public display. She was shocked and immediately became anxious. She struggled and scolded, but it was too late. More and more villagers had gathered. In a short time, the open space outside

Mo Ruyue’s courtyard was full of people.

“What’s the matter, Qin family? Half of the village heard you just now. Didn’t you say you caught the thief? Why are you dragging your mother-in-law along?”

“That’s right. We thought that there was really a thief in the world, so we came to help. Who would have thought?”

“Aiya, Qin family’s child, let go of her. Your mother-in-law is about to fall. She’s already so old, and she can’t stand your arrogance.”

When the villagers saw Qin Shi being pulled by Mo Ruyue while her mouth was still shouting and cursing, they did not know what had happened, and all started to persuade her.

“There’s no hurry. When the village chief comes, we’ll slowly explain it. ”

Mo Ruyue did not care how others looked at her. Her five fingers were like iron pincers that clasped onto Qin Shi’s hand, making her struggle with all her might to no avail. Not only was she covered in a stinky sweat from exhaustion, but even her voice was hoarse.

She turned around and saw San Bao carrying Si Bao, looking as if it was very difficult. Tang Tang even had to help support her at the side. She said to them, “San Bao, send Si Bao back to her room. Do you still remember the herbs that mother mentioned to you about the refreshing soup?”

“I… I remember.”

“Fa Banxia, mother coriander, orange peel, lotus seed heart, Yu… Yujin, and…” San bao said hesitantly.

“There’s also white atractylodes, white cornstarch, and raw butterrice!”

Tang Tang added from the side.

Recently, other than morning practice, Mo Ruyue would also teach them how to identify medicinal herbs. She had only taught them the prescription of the refreshing soup recently. However, Tang Tang was still too young and could not remember everything. San Bao was not interested in medicine and only had a little stutter.

“Mother, I remember. Are you going to make a soup for little brother?”

Er Bao had returned. He immediately walked to San Bao’s side and took Si Bao from her. At the same time, he replied to Mo Ruyue.

“Yes, half the dosage of each medicine for Si Bao. There are measuring tools at home. Mother doesn’t have to repeat it, right?”

Mo Ruyue seemed to have forgotten that there was another person in her hand as she directly warned the babies.

“No need, mother. Let’s bring little brother back.”

Er Bao glanced at Qin Shi. He did not have the slightest intention to greet or plead for mercy. His mother’s words just now were very clear. There was a thief in the house. Besides, Si Bao was the most important person now. He could not care about anything else.

“Mo Ruyue! Quickly release this old lady! Your son is dying, and you don’t care about it, and you’re trying to harm me. Do you even have a conscience?”

Qin Shi saw that the village head was also alarmed and became even more flustered. In a moment of desperation, she shouted.

“Whose son did you say is dying?”

Mo Ruyue’s fingers exerted a little force, and a “crack” sound was heard. Qin Shi’s hand bones were squeezed until they creaked. It was so painful that she wailed “oh my,” and half bent down with Mo Ruyue’s strength.
