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

98 A Hero Among True Girls

Their little faces were all pale, but they still stood beside Mo Ruyue. They didn’t hide behind her, but instead leaned closer to her.

Da Bao was the calmest among the babies, but he still looked at Mo Ruyue with a face full of worry. He believed that his mother would definitely be able to handle this matter well. However, if she offended the county magistrate like this, he was afraid that her future days would not be easy.

“What else do you want? Kneel? Compensate you with money, or… Let this official’s wife pay with her life. ”

The county magistrate didn’t have any tender feelings for a woman now. He already wanted to burn Mo Ruyue’s bones and scatter her ashes.

To think that he had previously wanted to take her into the manor and let her live a life of gold and silver, eating and drinking well. He did not expect that this woman not only did not know what was good for her, but she was also a crazy woman who could not be shaken off!

Now, he deeply regretted having evil thoughts about her, but it was too late to regret it.

“I only hope that the Old Master can handle this fairly, this is what you should do, right? Otherwise, please ask Madam to come out and apologize to me in person, and promise that she will not seek revenge in any way in the future.”

Mo Ruyue wanted to force the county magistrate to show his attitude in public. As long as he didn’t come out to look for trouble on the surface, she wasn’t afraid of his tricks in private.

“Good, good! Just you wait!”

The magistrate knew that if Liu Wangshi didn’t come out and apologize, this matter would not be resolved. Thus, he took a deep breath and announced, “I will personally bring Madam out now. I will rest for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. After that, I will continue with my promotion.”

After he finished speaking, he pushed away the advisor who was still blocking him, flicked his sleeves and walked around the screen angrily to the backyard.

There was an uproar at the entrance of the court. Everyone’s gaze on Mo Ruyue became extremely complicated.

Some people thought that she was crazy, while others envied her for being able to make the high and mighty master bow his head.

Among this group of people, there was a man in straight armor who looked at Mo Ruyue’s back with infatuation and muttered, “True women are heroes among true women. They can’t yield to their might. That’s how it should be!”

“What? You want me to apologize to her? In your dreams! I won’t go even if I die!”

Liu Wangshi flicked a teacup beside her to the ground, causing the tea to spill all over the floor and the cup to shatter into pieces.

She had a forehead ribbon on her head, and she threw away her teacup and panted heavily, as if she was going to pass out the next second.

“Wife, this is not an expeditionary plan. Why don’t you appear and say a few good words to her, compensate her with some silver and send her away, and help me get through this calamity?”

The magistrate was startled by her action of smashing the cup, and he quickly looked outside.

It was broad daylight now, and the court was not far from the back courtyard. What if someone heard it?

He controlled his temper and carefully persuaded her with a smile, but he was already very impatient in his heart.

In the past, although her temper was unpredictable, she was always with the servants and maids, and could be considered to be sensible. In addition, she took the initiative to take two concubines for him, so he did not divorce her and marry another.

Now, this matter could be considered as her fanning the flames. Now, he was just asking her to apologize to that Mo Ruyue, but she was actually smashing things here. She was really being spoiled until she had more and more problems and her temper was getting worse!

“Hmph, Old Master should be very clear about how this matter came about, right? Who should be the one apologizing? Now, you’re forcing me to apologize to that woman. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll reveal everything about you?”

Liu Wangshi stared at the magistrate and suddenly laughed coldly. As soon as she spoke, she saw the magistrate’s face darken.

“What good would it do you to reveal my secret? Don’t forget that you’re my woman now. You’ll only have a good life if I’m rich and prosperous. If I’m poor, you’ll have to follow me and beg for food on the streets!”

“Go out and apologize now, and I’ll let you continue to live your pampered life. Otherwise, I’ll send you home with a divorce letter! Don’t forget, you’ve been recuperating all these years after marrying me, and you have no place to go. I should’ve divorced you long ago!”

The county magistrate’s words had already dumbfounded Liu Wangshi.

She looked at the man standing in front of her in a daze. This was the man she had been married to for nearly ten years. Just last night, he was still tenderly telling her that this matter would definitely succeed and that he would definitely throw Mo Ruyue into jail to avenge her.

And now?

In the blink of an eye, he was going to force her out and apologize to that woman in front of everyone?

She was the wife of the county magistrate. How could she raise her head in front of outsiders in the future? How was she going to manage the servants in the house?

“Did you not hear what I said? If I take you out now, everything will be fine. If you don’t move, it will be even uglier when the Yamen runners come to drag you out!”

Since the county magistrate had already removed his mask, he would not continue to put on an act. His attitude towards the Wang Clan had also taken a 180-degree turn.

The woman outside had already given him a headache and put him in an awkward position, and the one at home was also pulling his leg at this critical moment. Hmph, he couldn’t deal with the woman outside now, but could he not deal with the one at home?

“You… You still want to drag me out.”

Liu Wangshi repeated those words in a daze. She could see in the magistrate’s eyes that he was serious, and it was precisely because of this that she felt like she had fallen into an ice cave, many things that she had believed in collapsing.

Just as the magistrate had run out of patience and was about to leave, Liu Wangshi spoke.

“Wait, I’ll go out with you.”

After all, she had been married to the county magistrate for nearly ten years. She was very clear about his character of being a man of his word. If he said that he would get the Yamen runners to drag her out, he would really do it!

As for the divorce papers, that would definitely happen. What awaited her wasn’t the joy of revenge, but the despair of never being able to turn things around.

Liu Wangshi didn’t have the courage to face all of this. Everything she had now was given to her by the magistrate. It was just as he had said, without him, she was nothing.

“Good, very good! It’s great that you can think it through. Make yourself look more embarrassed. You don’t look like a bedridden person now. ”

After the magistrate finished speaking, he turned around and left the main house. He couldn’t stand the strong smell of medicine here. He couldn’t bear it for another moment.

Very quickly, Liu Wangshi came out of the room. Her hair was disheveled and her face was pale, as if she had not drunk water in a very long time. The skin on her lips was cracked.

She didn’t walk out by herself, but was carried out while sitting on an armchair.

“Very good. Do you know what to say later? If you dare to cause any trouble, then…”

“I won’t make a scene. I’ll do as you say.”

The magistrate had originally wanted to continue with his threats, but the Wang Clan of Chen had very calmly cut him off.
