Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Food
At last, Old Lady Mo managed to drive away Mo Yaner and her family, her anger subsiding a bit. She had finally gotten rid of those penniless wretches, no longer needing to agonize over her own grains ending up in the stomachs of strangers.
Just as she was about to turn around and continue questioning Mo Xiaoqiang about what exactly had happened, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Auntie Sun hurriedly walking in, which made Old Lady Mo blaze with rage.
“You wretched woman, how dare you come back?”
Suddenly, Old Lady Mo’s fierce shout startled Auntie Sun considerably, making her think her own affairs had been exposed and that Old Lady Mo was about to settle scores with her.
“Mother-in-law, I… I…”
“You wretched woman, have you grown so bold as to dare hit my Qiangqiang? I myself can’t bear to touch a single finger of his, do you want to die?” Before she could finish speaking, Old Lady Mo, gritting her teeth, moved forward to grab Auntie Sun’s ear. However, she grabbed at empty air because it was the side Xuexue had bitten off, which only infuriated her further, and she slapped Auntie Sun across the face.
“Smack.”
Although Auntie Sun was struck by a slap, she felt somewhat relieved internally, knowing from Old Lady Mo’s words that Mo Xiaoqiang had not yet disclosed her secret.
“Mother-in-law, Mother-in-law, I didn’t hit husband, you are wronging me!” Auntie Sun stroked her cheek, looking down pitifully, thinking to herself that since Mo Xiaoqiang dared not disclose her secret, she’d better just deceive the old woman for now.
“Really, it wasn’t you?” Old Lady Mo asked skeptically.
“No, I don’t even know where husband went, how could I possibly hit him?” Auntie Sun looked directly at Old Lady Mo, her eyes clear as if she truly knew nothing, then she asked worriedly, “Mother-in-law, what exactly happened to husband? Where did he go today?”
“This….”
This question put Old Lady Mo in a tight spot. She couldn’t just say she had taken pity earlier today and given two taels of silver to Mo Xiaoqiang, who ran off straight to the Yihong Brothel.
“Mother-in-law?” With Old Lady Mo keeping silent, Auntie Sun leaned in closer and prodded tentatively.
“Psh! Your husband, even you don’t know, how should an old woman like me know?” Old Lady Mo stubbornly pretended to be clueless, wondering in her heart if perhaps, Qiangqiang was beaten at the Yihong Brothel. No, that couldn’t be right; she remembered him mentioning it had something to do with Auntie Sun. With that thought, she stepped forward and dragged Auntie Sun along.
“Mother-in-law, Mother-in-law, what are you doing?” Caught off guard and dragged along, Auntie Sun was visibly shocked.
“Come, let’s confront Qiangqiang together and see if you, you wretched woman, are lying to me.”
“Oh my! Mother-in-law, slow down, please slow down.”
Old Lady Mo ignored her and continued to pull her along briskly.
“Mother-in-law, please slow down, I… I’m pregnant.” At her wit’s end, Auntie Sun yelled out.
“What?” Old Lady Mo stopped abruptly, looking at her with a puzzled face: “What did you just say? Say it again?”
“I… I… I said I’m pregnant.”

“When did this happen?”
“A month ago, I just found out today when I visited the Medical Hall.”
“That’s wonderful! Our main branch finally has a successor.” Overwhelmed with joy, Old Lady Mo let go of Auntie Sun and asked with concern, “Hehe…! Are you okay? Did I hurt you just now?”
“No, no!”
“That’s good! You go rest in your room. I, the old maid, won’t bother you anymore. I’m going to make you a bowl of egg sugar water, hehe…” Elated, Old Lady Mo even forgot about Mo Xiaoqiang’s matter and scurried off to the kitchen.
Auntie Sun, stunned by the favor, noted that the old woman had never been so kind to anyone before.
