Chapter 418 Mu Yao Returns Home
After learning about this, Kong Lin realized that Mu Yao wasn't to blame. Mu Yao was pretty good. Ever since Lian Ren came into the family, she hadn't tried to torture her, nor had she used her status as mistress to make things difficult for her. On the contrary, Lian Ren shouldn't have been around Mu Yao so much, causing her to get upset.
Kong Lin went to Lianren's courtyard that night and explained to her that she should stop provoking Muyao. Muyao was the mistress of the house, and she was just a concubine, so she should behave herself. Moreover, Muyao had exempted her from the formalities of greeting due to her pregnancy, so she should not provoke the mistress.
After hearing this, Lianren not only didn't refute it, but instead showed weakness in front of Kong Lin, saying that she felt guilty towards Mu Yao, so she went to Mu Yao to make amends. Lianren also heard from Kong Lin's words that Mu Yao must not have told Kong Lin about her provocation, otherwise Kong Lin would definitely not have this attitude, so she dared to show weakness in front of Kong Lin, confusing right and wrong.
Kong Lin couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he thought about this, so he advised Lianren not to go to Muyao. They had already wronged Muyao, and they couldn't deny her a peaceful life.
[The pitiful person responded in this way, but he didn't really think so.]
She is looking for another opportunity.
Although Mu Yao didn't say it, she felt uncomfortable seeing her husband looking for another woman. She was depressed all day long. The nanny beside her couldn't stand it anymore and suggested that Mu Yao go out for a walk. Staying in her room all day would make her think too much.
Mu Yao felt the same way, so she followed Ma's advice and wandered around the pond in the back garden. The maidservant around Lian Ren heard that Mu Yao was away on a long trip, and Lian Ren knew this was a great opportunity. Now that Kong Lin had forbidden her from visiting Mu Yao's courtyard, it was difficult for her to openly go there. Furthermore, with Kong Lin's words in mind, she would have to bear the consequences on her own. However, Mu Yao stayed in the courtyard all day, so Lian Ren didn't even have a chance to confront her.
Lian Ren hurriedly found Mu Yao in the back garden. At first, Lian Ren was polite to Mu Yao. After just a few words, Lian Ren revealed her true colors, saying that Mu Yao couldn't win over her husband, which led to Kong Lin having an affair. She also said in a sarcastic tone that Mu Yao only acted like a mistress every day, but she couldn't even give birth to a child after being married for many years.
Mu Yao had been sulking all day, and Lian Ren's words completely irritated her. Not only was she angry, but even the nanny beside her was trembling with anger. That nanny was part of the Pingxi Marquis's dowry, so how could she bear to see her daughter being so arrogantly bullied by a concubine? If she didn't teach her a lesson, what would happen to her in the future?
[Don't you think these girls are weak and can be bullied, and they come to bully others every day?]
[And Lianren is pregnant. She's afraid she'll use the child to bully the family in the future. Mo Mo thinks her daughter is soft-hearted and hasn't set rules for Lianren, which has instead given her an opportunity to take advantage. But Mammy doesn't want her to continue bullying the girl like this, so she slaps her.]
[The poor girl was just worried she had no chance, so she took advantage of Mammy's slap and rolled down the stairs. She immediately started bleeding. Mu Yao and Mammy were terrified, and Mammy was even more stunned. She clearly didn't use much force, so how could the poor girl have rolled down?]
[Alas, Mammy, you didn't put in much effort. It's others who are worried and calculating.]
Mu Yao reacted quickly and immediately sent for the court physician to have Lianren sent back to her courtyard. She then informed Kong Lin and her parents-in-law, and the whole family rushed over. After the doctor's diagnosis, Lianren had a miscarriage.
Mu Yao was stunned for a moment. She hadn't meant to do this, but an innocent child was gone just like that. She felt a little guilty.
Lianren was crying about her child in front of Kong Lin, while at the same time pleading for Mu Yao in front of Kong Lin, saying that it wasn't Mu Yao's doing and that they had done it unintentionally. She was really a beautiful green tea flower. This wasn't pleading, this was clearly intentional instigation.
Kong Lin had feelings for Lianren, not to mention that she was his first child. With Lianren's instigation, Kong Lin became angry and slapped Muyao in the face. Muyao was stunned and stared at Kong Lin in disbelief.
Not to mention Mu Yao, even the maids around Mu Yao were in disbelief. This son-in-law and his mistress were so loving before, everyone praised them in public, but now he was beating someone up just because of a concubine.
[What's more, the son-in-law beat people without asking any questions, and didn't even ask the girl, just listening to the poor girl's nonsense.]
Mu Yao initially felt somewhat guilty about these things. Although she disliked the inner court infighting, she had indeed seen it before. After all, her mother also managed several concubines. Those concubines seemed to be well-behaved, but in reality, they were constantly plotting behind the scenes. What was there for her to understand? All of this was just a pitiful scheme.
She wasn't hurt by the pity schemes, but by Kong Lin's actions. She used to think that since Kong Lin had someone else in his heart, she would just turn a blind eye and treat him with respect. After all, life had to go on. Now, Mu Yao has completely given up on Kong Lin.
The maidservant beside Mu Yao was unwilling to accept this, so she told everyone everything Lian Ren had done to her daughter, even going so far as to say that Lian Ren had provoked her daughter, and the maidservant beside her was so angry that she hit him.
Kong Lin showed no regrets about attacking Mu Yao, and even wanted to help Lian Ren vent his anger by capturing Madam and beating her to death. Upon hearing this, Mu Yao truly understood Kong Lin. He was truly a cold-blooded and heartless man. She had never known Kong Lin before. The usually weak Mu Yao finally exploded at this moment to protect Madam, and a quarrel broke out with Kong Lin. The Pingxi Marquis's mansion had a dowry servant for Mu Yao, and when he saw Mu Yao being bullied, the servant came out to protect her. In this chaotic situation, the servant accidentally hit Kong Lin.
After Mu Yao saw Kong Lin clearly, she didn't want to stay here for another second, so she took everyone out of the Shangshu Mansion and returned to her parents' home.
After Mu Yao left, they didn't go to pick her up, and the two families remained distant. However, even after Mu Yao left, they didn't dare touch her dowry. After all, a woman's dowry was private property. Mu Yao had taken the initiative to give it to them to spend, but if they had spent it secretly, it would be a serious crime and they would be arrested. So, for a while, the Shangshu Mansion was living in extreme poverty. They couldn't afford doctors and were so poor that they could barely make ends meet.
