Reborn: Femme Fatale First Daughter
Chapter 123 - The Evil Mother and Son Drove Xuetong Out
Chapter 123 The Evil Mother and Son Drove Xuetong Out
“Mo Xuetong, what else do you want to say?” Mo Yufeng said with a ferocious glare just in time, “I can’t imagine you’re such a vicious woman. It’s stupid for Min’er to have treated you so well.”
Everyone present could see his great anger. If not pulled by others, he definitely would come over and attack her.
“Third miss, I can’t believe it’s you. Why did you do harm to Auntie Fang? Even if she had done something wrong, she is your elder. How could you be so vicious...” Mo Xuemin seemed disappointed and painful, miserably looking at her, as if she couldn’t believe she was such a vicious sister!
She lowered her eyes and thought that it was a good performance indeed. And the coldness in her eyes was gone!
“Third miss, it was really you. I suspected you long ago, there was nobody hating Auntie Fang that much except you.” Mo Xueqiong also assured her accusation and said excitedly. She had already realized it was a scheme, but she was happy to see all these. It was the perfect time for her to join in the scheme.
Mo Huawen was the only one who looked gloomy and didn’t say a word. Nobody knew what he was thinking about. But everyone believed that he would stand out for Auntie Fang.
There was no change in Mo Xuetong’s facial expression. She pushed Mo Lan away who was standing in front of her, picked up the safflower, looked at it carefully, and asked the doctor smilingly, “Doctor, are you sure it’s safflower?
“Of course, it’s safflower. I’ve been a doctor for many years and can easily recognize toxicants like safflower and musk. This miss is so vicious at such a young age, you’ll...” The doctor who was doubted by Mo Xuetong stood up with anger and bit back at Mo Xuetong.
“Old sir, please do something for me. Old sir, our child...” Auntie Fang just woke up, raised her pale face and shakingly reached to tug at Mo Huawen’s sleeves. Her face looked tabid and pitiful. There was not any canniness left, but only fragility. She caught Mo Huawen’s sleeves, crying, and she couldn’t say a word.
Mo Huawen frowned and sat there, there was more darkness than ever when he looked at Mo Xuetong’s face. He wanted to get away from the hand of Auntie Fang but stopped when he saw Mo Xuetong. An old memory flashed back on his mind, and his face got even darker. If this was true, they hadn’t done her an injustice then.
He couldn’t believe what was before his eyes, which hurt his heart. Did his Tong’er really become a vicious person? No, it couldn’t be true!
Whether he wanted this child or not, Tong’er couldn’t do that!
Luo Xia was so kind that she couldn’t have given birth to such a horrible daughter. There must be something wrong with it!
Thinking of the girl who used to be so gentle and kind, he couldn’t help feeling sad and remorseful and clenched his fist. He couldn’t believe that the daughter he loved most was so vicious. It’s impossible, absolutely impossible!
If the thing that happened a year ago had left him concerns, this accident added evidence to his concerns. Now he could see the worries in his heart more clearly and that Tong’er might be really vicious!
He lifted his head and looked in Mo Xuetong’s direction and just met her bright pure eyes. He couldn’t believe Tong’er who had those bright pure eyes could have done such a thing.
He looked into those beautiful eyes but saw another beautiful woman. Luo Xia used to look at him with those innocent eyes. No, it couldn’t be true. Tong’er couldn’t have done such a thing. How could he doubt her and her pure eye? No, never!
When that happened for the first time, it was great pain for him forever. If that happened again, he would rather die!
Taking a deep breath, Mo Huawen let go of his doubt and pulled his sleeves out of Auntie Fang’s hand. He lifted his eyes to look at Mo Xuetong and gently asked, “Tong’er, are you sure you don’t know these?”
Mo Huawen already prepared himself for the answer. As long as Tong’er denied it, he would believe her!
He didn’t do this for anything else, but for those pure eyes, which had looked at him so desperately. That pain was so fierce that he couldn’t stand it again.
“Dad, I didn’t do it.” Mo Xuetong didn’t want to say it, but her heart melted and felt sad when she saw Mo Huawen’s eyes filled with suppliance. No matter who came up with the scheme, she had been her father’s daughter, which was the same to him. Even though Mo Xuemin was vicious and sinister, Mo Xuetong could only let him know the truth step by step.
“First miss, first sir, you all think that I caused Auntie Fang’s abortion, but how would that benefit me?” She turned around and coldly said to Mo Xuemin and Mo Yufeng.
Auntie Fang had a son and a daughter. Even if she lost the child, it wouldn’t hurt her much, so she didn’t have to risk herself trying to get rid of the baby. Whether the child existed or not, it wouldn’t hurt Auntie Fang’s status. The potential meaning of these words made Mo Huawen relieve and confirm that Tong’er didn’t do that.
“You are afraid that if our father gets a son at such an age, he would make Auntie Fang the first wife. Therefore, you wanted to get rid of the child first.” Mo Yufeng replied with a cold facial expression.
“I don’t know whether dad will make Auntie Fang the main wife, but dad will never have a vicious woman.” Mo Xuetong remained calm and said to Mo Yufeng, “First Brother, the thing you thought in your control may get wrong sometimes. Can you say for sure that I killed the child in Auntie Fang’s belly?”
Some people couldn’t see their status clearly if no one was in charge. He was just a concubine’s son, but he considered himself to be a master here!
“You know the truth. Mo Xuetong, I didn’t know all of your kindness was fake. Under your delicate appearance, you were actually cold-hearted. You put safflower and musk together not only to get the life of the baby but also the life of Auntie Fang?”
Looking at Mo Xuetong’s cold ironic eyes, Mo Yufeng trembled inside. But he came to his senses immediately and started to refute.
“First miss also thinks that I killed the lady’s baby?” Mo Xuetong slightly opened her mouth and turned to Mo Xuemin. Mo Xuemin made such a great effort to scheme so that she couldn’t get out of trouble!
“Third miss, you won’t admit it until now! No matter how much you hated Auntie Fang, that was a life. The child did nothing wrong. No matter who was his mother, that was a fresh life. Third miss, how could you do such a horrible thing?” Mo Xuemin acted with so much sorrow and never stopped accusing Mo Xuetong.
It took the baby’s life to scheme Mo Xuetong, and she wouldn’t let her get out of it.
Cruelty appeared briefly in her eyes, and then she continued looking at Mo Xuetong sadly with teary eyes.
Mo Xuetong watched her performance coldly. No matter in her last life or this life, Mo Xuemin was the best actress. She could push all the fault onto her, while still acted as a good sister at the same time.
But she wouldn’t let her dream come true. What Auntie Fang and Mo Xuemin owed her and her mother would be paid back gradually from then on! This was only a little bonus of it. Death wasn’t the only destination. With such hatred, she wouldn’t let them pay off at that moment!
Didn’t Mo Xuemin want to be the legitimate daughter and marry herself into a rich and famous family?
A cold smile appeared by her lips. She ignored Mo Xuemin and took the safflower from the doctor. Then she walked to the censer and blew out the incenses which was about to go out. Mo Lan handed over a piece of paper and she put the safflower and musk into the white paper.
“Third miss, now both the testimony of a witness and physical evidence are here, you have no chance to deny.” Seeing her collect the evidence calmly and not showing any sorrow or anger after being wronged, Mo Xuemin felt something wrong and opened her mouth.
“Don’t you think it’s better to keep the evidence and have it checked by more people? A quack doctor can’t say it for sure.” Mo Xuetong carefully folded the paper and didn’t show any panic.
“How could he be called as a quack doctor? He’s a famous doctor in the capital and many rich families come to him for medical advice. He has cured some of the concubines in the manor and has a good fame.” Mo Xuemin frowned.
Mo Xuetong stared at Mo Xuemin’s face for a while and smiled, “First miss, you had told me not to believe in others’ words so easily. Besides, the doctors sent for concubines are not so professional.” Her cold eyes glanced over the face of the doctor and scared him. He didn’t dare to say anything more.
A doctor for concubines was really no big deal.
These words made Mo Xuemin’s face flush, and she stopped talking too.
“Miss, you can’t frame me up just because you want to escape from the responsibility!” The doctor sat up and scolded angrily after receiving a forceful gaze from Auntie Fang.
Mo Huawen watched coldly and started to found something strange. After all, he was an official who got the recognition of Emperor Zongwen. He had always been intelligent and just lost his cool because that was important for him. Then he felt reassured for Mo Xuetong’s calmness and eyed the doctor doubtfully with a pair of knitted brows.
The doctor was frequently sent to the manor. Today, Old Madam didn’t feel well so he came again. He was responsible for all kinds of illness in the manor. Mo Huawen didn’t usually take notice of a doctor. However, after being reminded by Mo Xuetong, he found the doctor more suspicious than ever.
“Whether we framed you or not will be proved soon. Father, I’ll invite Sir Bai to come. His words can be trusted? How about inviting him to come and see?” Mo Xuetong ignored the doctor and said to Mo Huawen, “If Sir Bai can prove my innocence, what will first miss and first sir do?”
It’s known to all that Bai Yihao had excellent medical skills. He even brought Old Madam’s life back when other doctors had no solution. Nobody ever doubted his medical skills, but it was hard to invite him. Besides, he had seldom cured disease for anyone, and might have only offered the ingredients of tonic at most.
“If you’re innocent, you’ll kowtow and admit our fault to you, kneeling down and serving tea.” Mo Yufeng smiled coldly. The things were real. First miss asked someone to change the incenses, and when Auntie Fang came in she brought the safflower in and hid it under the cushion. So, they were not frightened at all.
The three of them had planned to take Mo Xuetong’s life on this day. They didn’t believe that father would still cover up for her when he learned the truth. Once the girl was gone, Auntie Fang could become the main wife without any difficulties. Father would be guilty that she lost her child and would grant the thing she wanted.
Let that little bitch be the stepping-stone to their wealth and rank!
“What does first miss have in mind?” Mo Xuetong glanced at Mo Xuemin, but there was no limpidity but coldness, which made Mo Xuemin tremble. But she had no choice then and had to help Mo Yufeng. She glanced at Auntie Fang, who was pretending to have passed out, and frowned. Her big eyes were filled with tears and said unwillingly, “I definitely agree with First Brother. But now that you have done such a thing, you should admit it. Third miss, you don’t know how much that hurt my heart...”
That hurt much? What would happen next would hurt you more!
“But if it was really your fault, what will you do?” Mo Xuemin said in a sharp tone with coldness in her eyes.
“What do you want me to do?” Mo Xuetong looked at Mo Xuemin profoundly and said.
“If you have actually done such a thing, you, Mo Xuetong, are no longer a daughter of Mo’s.” Mo Yufeng answered quickly.
Everyone got shocked and silent at these words!
