I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies

90 Found By The Yamen

“Alright, all of you, stop talking. Da Bao is right. You didn’t have this face when you came to beg her. At least Lady Qin wasn’t shackled away. Everything hasn’t been decided yet. What nonsense are you all talking about?”

At the crucial moment, Liu Juan ‘Zi was still the first one to stand up and speak for Mo Ruyue.

If Mo Ruyue was still as dead as before, she wouldn’t even say a word. She would even wish for her to quickly suffer her retribution.

However, the Mo Ruyue now, although she had become a lot colder and spoke indifferently, she no longer beat, scolded, abused children, made a scene, lied, and sneaked around. When it came to the treatment, she had indeed saved the old man. Could it be that she did not acknowledge this fact just to gloat at her misfortune and laugh at her?

“Hmph, who doesn’t know that you, Aunt Liu, have a good relationship with Lady Qin? Of course, you’re on her side.”

Someone said disdainfully. He was too lazy to argue with a child, but he could still talk to Aunt Liu.

“I said a few words on her behalf and that means I have a good relationship with her? Then I’d like to ask if there’s any family in our village that I haven’t spoken for justice. Don’t you have a conscience saying this?”

Aunt Liu was also a serious person, and she was about to argue with that person to find out who was better.

“Don’t quarrel! Let’s see what happens first. If Lady Qin is really guilty, then we’ll wait for the county magistrate to convict her. Our Qin Village doesn’t tolerate liars and quacks, but we can’t just accuse people.

This time, it was the village chief who stood up to speak. As soon as he spoke, the villagers who were still discussing non-stop immediately shut their mouths.

The village chief was not only the village chief of the Qin Village, but also the patriarch of the Qin Clan. He and Mo Ruyue had long been filled with irreconcilable conflicts, but now he was speaking up for her because he had no choice.

If the village got rid of such a sinner, then the reputation of the entire Qin Village would be affected. This was also the reason why he did not protect the Qin clan at the beginning and let Mo Ruyue separate the family as he wished.

As long as it didn’t affect the Qin Family Village’s reputation, he wouldn’t care about Mo Ruyue’s life or death. He would rather her reputation be tarnished.

Seeing that the crowd had dispersed, the village chief glanced at Da Bao coldly and said in a deep voice, “You should also bring your brother back. Otherwise, if you run out and cause trouble, I can’t bear the crime of not taking care of you.”

San Bao wanted to say something when she heard that. However, Da Bao pinched her shoulder and forced her to swallow her words.

“Uncle Village Chief, don’t worry. I will take good care of my younger brother and sister. I can’t let mother work hard to prove her innocence in front of me and still have to worry about the fire in my backyard. Although I’m young, I still know what I need to know. ”

Da Bao’s words almost caused the village chief’s nose to become crooked. His words were indirectly saying that the villagers who had made sarcastic remarks were insensible and even indirectly insinuated the village chief. However, the village chief could not say anything. He simply pinched his nose and swallowed this loss in silence.

The village chief finally understood that Da Bao was now a smaller Mo Ruyue. He was as sharp-tongued as Mo Ruyue and protected the babies. If he continued to argue with this child, he would really lose face.

So he gritted his teeth and endured it for a long time, grinding his cheeks until he gave up. In the end, he snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and turned to leave.

“Big Brother, what should we do? What will mother do?”

San Bao’s voice was filled with sobs. She tried to hold back her tears and put on a strong front. She was extremely regretful now. If their mother had not gone to save her back then, there would not be such a thing today.

They had regretted it once when the villagers came to visit them, but now it seemed that it couldn’t be compared to what had happened today. What if mother was really convicted? Were they going to become ‘orphans’ who had no one to rely on and were despised by others?

When she thought of the days where she didn’t have enough to eat and didn’t have enough to wear, and she had to be thrown stones by the children in the village, chased, and scolded, she was so afraid that her whole body trembled.

“Let’s go find Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu! If they can still speak for mother, they won’t watch us being wronged and we won’t beg them to take us into the city!”

Da Bao had already made up his mind. He would not wait at home like a fool like before.

Ever since his mother had changed, she had done her best to protect them every time. She had helped them get back the property that should have belonged to them, got back the household registration that was in their grandmother’s hands, and even pulled them back from the edge of starving to death.

She was cold and vicious, but she had never shortchanged their food and clothing. She even changed her ways to nourish their bodies.

She was unreasonable, but she did not hesitate to protect them.

So this time, he was going to take his brothers and sisters to protect them in his own way!

“What? You want to enter the city with your younger brothers and sisters?”

When Aunt Liu heard Da Bao’s words, she exclaimed in disbelief.

“Da Bao, have you thought it through? Your mother has been found by the Yamen, but what can you children do to help? It’s better to wait for her to return home. ”

She tried to persuade him again. She really couldn’t understand why Da Bao would suddenly have this idea.

“Grandma Liu, although we’re still children, we still want to help mother do something. If we just wait at home, our younger brothers and sisters will be worried and overthink things. It’s better to go to mother’s side. It’s better to see it than not.”

Aunt Liu was taken aback by Da Bao’s words. Previously, when they were moving out and when he was slandered by Divine Doctor Qin, Da Bao had shown maturity and wisdom beyond his age. Perhaps she had really underestimated this child. Perhaps he really could help Lin Xi.

“Old woman, just listen to the child. I’ll go with them anyway, and I’ll take care of them.”

Uncle Liu had always been a man of the rules. Based on his past personality, he would not have agreed to bring so many young children around. However, the calmness and intelligence that Da Bao had displayed really impressed him. He thought that since he had come to his door to beg, he would help him.

“Alright, how about this? I’ll make you guys something to eat on the way. I’m sure the Qin Family hasn’t had time to make breakfast so early in the morning. How can we let you guys go hungry?”

As Aunt Liu said this, she wanted to make more food.

“Grandma Liu, it’s okay. We have money with us. We can just buy some food when we enter the city.”

Da Bao patted his chest. There was a silver note in it. He also brought a pouch with some loose silver and copper coins.

Mo Ruyue had let him manage the money. Whether it was the inheritance that belonged to the babies or the money she had earned herself, other than the money she usually had for emergency use, the rest was all in Da Bao’s hands.

He was now extremely grateful that he had money in his hands, so that when he wanted to help his mother, he would not be in the dark and empty-handed.
