The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1192 - 274
Chapter 1192: 274
Thinking of this, Xie Yi grew even more furious. Looking toward Mo Heng, she thought that even Xiao Yong wasn’t as good as Mo Heng; he was merely of higher status. But if she went with Mo Heng, she could exact revenge against Pei Qin and her whole family! She would make them never look down on her or belittle her again!
Gritting her teeth, Xie Yi took a step forward, "A single night of spring is worth a thousand gold. Pei Qin has had children, she’s aged, and lacks the gentleness a woman should possess. I will definitely be better than her!" ƒreewebɳovel.com
"You’re not even worth a single hair on her head!" Pei Wendong snapped angrily.
Xie Yi was startled and quickly turned to look behind the screen.
Pei Wendong kicked the screen down.
Chang Yonglin also released Xie Ze’s pressure points.
The screen crashed to the ground, just like Xie Yi’s heart at the moment. Seeing Pei Wendong, Chang Yonglin, and Fang Liuming all in the room, including her own brother, her face turned pale as paper, "Ah—!" In terror, she hurriedly picked up the clothes on the ground to cover herself.
"Keep shouting! Let everyone come see! The daughter of Magistrate Xie, who prides herself on being educated and rational, from the daughter of the Official’s family, after being rescued, not only did she not repay her savior’s kindness but also mooched off their resources and repaid kindness with malice by seducing the brother-in-law of her benefactor. She must have been lacking in morals since she was young!" sneered Chang Yonglin.
Fury filled Pei Wendong’s eyes, "Xie Yi! I have been giving you chances all along, yet you indeed plotted to harm my elder sister!" Enraged, he raised his hand, channeled his energy.
Fang Liuming grabbed his hand, "No need to kill her, it’s dirtying your hands."
Mo Heng sat up on the soft couch, "Sever your hands, and I will let you leave. Otherwise, you know what I’m capable of."
Feng Wei appeared out of nowhere and threw a knife on the ground at Xie Ze’s feet.
Xie Yi shook her head, "No!"
Xie Ze’s face turned ashen, trembling all over. He looked at Mo Heng, who was full of murderous intent, then at the angry or disdainful looks of Pei Wendong and others. It felt like an explosion, and he bent over to pick up the knife.
"Don’t! What right do you have to kill me!? You can’t! You have no right to kill!" Xie Yi shrieked in terror, eyes bloodshot with fury.
"I won’t kill you. Chop off the hands and feet, sell them to the Hidden Kiln. The silver spent on your sustenance this year will be recouped," Mo Heng ordered coldly.
Feng Wei pulled out another knife, its polished blade glinting in the light, but its edge was made of black steel, razor-sharp.
"No! No!" Xie Yi was paralyzed by fear. Having her hands and feet chopped off and sold to the Hidden Kiln would end her life! A fate worse than death!
Xie Ze, coming to his senses, began to resent, "What right do you have to kill my sister!?"
"My God! Their entire moral compass is distorted. No use talking to them anymore!" Chang Yonglin directed Feng Wei to proceed.
Xie Ze, gripped by fear, clutched the knife, looking at Feng Wei. He despised Xie Yi for causing such a disgrace, and resented Pei Wendong for treating them ruthlessly. His hatred roiled uncontrollably, "You dare make a move! Even if you hold power, you can’t just kill people! We are not your servants! You have no right to dispose of us!"
"You’re indeed not the servants of our household because they earn their monthly payments through their own hard work. Yet the two of you freeload!" Chang Yonglin almost laughed. With such naive thoughts, if it weren’t for clinging to Wendong and staying at the mansion, you would likely be dead!
Xie Ze was thoroughly infuriated, holding the knife and pointing at Chang Yonglin, "Shut up! It was Pei Wendong who wanted to marry my sister, who was supposed to take responsibility for her! It was him, driven by vanity, who abandoned my sister to climb the social ladder!"
"Even before Xi Yun became the ruler, you two were freeloaders, don’t use your family wealth as an excuse, with just you two, you wouldn’t attract even a single penny!" Chang Yonglin was adamant today.
Xie Ze, consumed by hatred, could never even consider asking for family wealth, certainly never achieving it! Observing Chang Yonglin’s cold, contemptuous gaze, he gave a furious shout and lunged at him with the knife.
