Chapter 172: The 172nd Chapter: Despicable Bone
“This damn woman just deserves a beating. While I, the old granny, munch on vegetables and radishes every day, she has the nerve to feast on meat and fish without fearing divine punishment.” In just a few days, several plump chickens had disappeared, and Old Lady Mo felt as if her heart and other internal organs were in agony. She was itching to peel a few pounds of flesh from Madam Xie’s body to quell her rage.
“Isn’t there still one chicken left?” Mo Yaner pointed out, indicating the cage in Old Lady Mo’s hands.
“Damn it all, Old Master Mo clearly brought over four plump chickens, and these wretched fools have left only one.” Old Lady Mo was seething with anger, cursing unreservedly.
Mo Yaner’s face turned ugly at the mention of “wretched fools.”
Auntie Sun, who had been observing words and moods, noticed the tension and quickly sashayed over, pulling Mo Yaner away from Old Lady Mo while speaking pitifully, “Yaner, your grandmother has been unable to eat or sleep properly these days because your mother has been so unfilial. Just let her vent her anger. She’s an old woman after all, and even if she hits your mother, she doesn’t have much strength left, it’s nothing, don’t worry.”
“But…”
Mo Yaner turned her head and saw Old Lady Mo step forward and kick Madam Xie several times, managing to knock her to the ground. After all, it was her own mother, and her heart was not entirely without sympathy; she wanted to turn back and stop Old Lady Mo from being violent.
“It’s nothing.”
Auntie Sun clutched Mo Yaner’s arm tightly, preventing her from going over to help Madam Xie and trying to distract her, “You haven’t visited your maternal home for such a long time, your father has been missing you.” Then, turning her head, she called out loudly to Mo Xiaoqiang, “Isn’t that right, husband?”
“Huh?”
Mo Xiaoqiang, who had been secretly rejoicing at the prospect of acquiring valuables from the old residence, was utterly confused when he heard Aunt Sun’s illogical question.

“Aiyowei! You deadbeat, haven’t you been nagging me about missing your precious daughter?” Frustrated with Mo Xiaoqiang’s obtuseness, Auntie Sun glared at him intensely.
“Oh! Yes, yes, yes.” Mo Xiaoqiang finally came to his senses and quickly responded, then turning towards Yanyan, his tone instantly shifting to one of helpless pathos, “Yanyan, daddy has been missing you. You know how I’ve always adored you since you were little.”
The truth was, Mo Yaner had been his first child, and at the time of her birth, Mo Xiaoqiang had indeed been excited for quite a long time. However, due to Madam Xie’s inability to bear sons, she bore three daughters in succession. Old Lady Mo cursed daily, and along with the gossiping village women remarking behind his back that his family line would end with him, Mo Xiaoqiang felt humiliated and gradually became distant from his wife and daughters.
Remembering the love between father and daughter from the past, Mo Yaner’s eyes grew moist, “Father, how have you been recently?”
“Sigh! What good could it be? Xuexue, that wretched girl, doesn’t have half your thoughtfulness. She opposes me in everything and is almost driving me to my grave with her attitude.”
“That can’t be. Sister has always been gentle and timid, how could she defy father like this?” Mo Yaner expressed disbelief, knowing Xuexue’s nature. A girl who would cry at the sight of a mouse or cockroach, she was extremely timid.
“Sigh! You don’t know. Ever since your stepmother entered our household, she has completely changed.” This time, Mo Xiaoqiang wasn’t pretending; he truly sighed heavily. Xuexue, who used to be so compliant, had become fierce from that moment on and even bit off Aunt Sun’s ear.
“Yaner, you’re already married. You should understand your father’s difficulties. Daddy taking a concubine is also for the sake of ensuring our family has descendants. This way, nobody can point fingers at your father’s back and call him a man without heirs.”
