Chapter 4 Auntie Sun
She rushed to the bedside and singlehandedly pulled Xuexue out from under the bed…
"My dear daughter, in such cold weather, how did you get completely soaked?" Madam Xie, touching Xuexue's dripping cotton clothes, was inconsolable with sobs.
Lying in her arms, Xuexue kept her eyes tightly shut, her cheeks reddening unusually.
Madam Xie touched her forehead, then urgently looked up at Mo Xiaoqiang and said, "Husband, Xuexue has a high fever, quick, go fetch the Doctor."
"Hmph! Sister's pitiful act is quite convincing," Auntie Sun remarked sarcastically.
"What are you talking about? Xuexue has a fever, I'm going to get the Doctor." Today was his own day to take a concubine, and Mo Xiaoqiang still felt somewhat apologetic toward his legal wife.
"Husband, don't be fooled by her."
"Fooled by what?" Mo Xiaoqiang asked, looking puzzled at Auntie Sun's charming face.
Pouting her lips and with a look of grievance, Auntie Sun said, "Today was supposed to be our special day; Sister can be jealous if she wants, but she shouldn't have hidden Xuexue under our bed. If she scared you seriously, wouldn't that mean the end of the Mo family's lineage?"
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Mo became infuriated. It was precisely because Madam Xie bore three daughters without delivering a son that Old Lady Mo was worried about the continuation of her son's line, leading to the big celebration today with Mo Xiaoqiang taking a concubine.
To hear Auntie Sun now accusing Madam Xie of deliberately hiding Xuexue under the bed simply made Old Lady Mo explode with anger.
"You wicked woman, with such a black heart! My son merely took a concubine, and you want to curse him with no descendants, is that it? I will beat you to death." Having said that, Old Lady Mo charged forward, delivering a fierce beating without even caring whether she might hit Xuexue, who was in her arms.
Auntie Sun stood by, covering her mouth and snickering secretly.
Xuexue, shielded in Madam Xie's embrace, after being slapped twice by Big Boss Mo, suddenly "swooshed" open her eyes, glaring fiercely at Old Lady Mo.
Old Lady Mo, having been glared at, retreated a few steps feeling somewhat guilty.
Seeing Old Lady Mo cease her attack, Auntie Sun, not quite satisfied, stepped forward and fanned the flames, "Mother-in-law, look at Sister's lack of upbringing, letting Xuexue glare at you, her grandmother, like that."
Stirred up by Auntie Sun, Old Lady Mo became enraged again, just as she was about to regain her dignity...
Xuexue, lying in Madam Xie's embrace, suddenly leaped up like a tiger pouncing down a mountain, charging straight at Auntie Sun.
"You vixen spirit, with such a cruel heart, you actually harmed my daughter. I will kill you, kill you." Xuexue's hands clawed towards Auntie Sun's face.
Completely unguarded, Auntie Sun was immediately struck, and by the time she realized what was happening, her face was throbbing with pain.
Xuexue's action stunned everyone in the Mo family, as Xuexue was usually very well-behaved, never having raised her voice before. What had happened today?
"Ouch! Why are you all standing there like fools? Quickly, pull them apart."
The first to snap out of the shock was Mo Xiaoqiang, seeing his Beautiful Lady suddenly turned into a Grimacing Lady by his daughter, he could not help feeling a knot in his heart.
Hearing Mo Xiaoqiang's cries, everyone finally came to their senses, and it took an enormous effort to finally pull Xuexue away from Auntie Sun.
"Oh my! It hurts so much, husband, you must teach her a lesson," Auntie Sun wailed in pain.
On seeing Auntie Sun's face, everyone instinctively turned away in pity.
The once coquettish Auntie Sun now had her entire face scratched up, not to mention her hair in a mess like a bird's nest and her clothes torn. Those were minor issues, but what was major was that on the first day of marriage, she had been disfigured by the daughter of the legal wife.
