Chapter 270 - Return Everything that You Owe Me (1/2)

Mo Shujun looked at Shi Qingxue and stated forcefully, “Kid, I can see that you have evil intentions and want to frame your uncle purposely, right?

“Juncai seldom talks with you at ordinary times. Although he doesn’t spoil you, he never offends you. How can you be so heartless as to put all the blame on your innocent uncle?”

She cursed and shouted. It was obvious that she thought that Shi Qingxue made irresponsible remarks and intentionally framed Shi Juncai.

She was really good at making false countercharges.

Shi Qingxue couldn’t help but tut-tut to praise her grandmother.

Nevertheless, she didn’t hurry to retort or explain. Instead, she pretended to look at Mo Shujun doubtfully. “Grandma, why did you say that? I never show disrespect to Uncle Juncai.”

“In this case, give Leng Yan to me. Then it can prove that the maid talked nonsense and it has nothing to do with you. So I naturally won’t blame you.”

Mo Shujun finally showed her evil heart, demanding Shi Qingxue to give out Leng Yan.

Fierceness couldn’t be hidden in her eyes. If Leng Yan was in her hands, would she stay alive?

“Grandma, please keep calm,” Shi Qingxue smiled and stated unhurriedly. “Since you said that Leng Yan just talked nonsense, it needs to be proven.”

Mo Shujun interrupted, “The baby is in her womb. Can’t she make malicious remarks randomly about who the father is?

“If she is well-behaved and admits her guilt, maybe I can spare her life, but if she insists on fabricating a charge against Juncai, I won’t spare her.”

She spoke with justice. Judging from her words and serious expression, she affirmed that Shi Juncai was not to blame.

Even though both of them knew the truth.

Mo Shujun dared to brazenly put all the blame on Leng Yan just because the baby in her womb was not born and it could prove nothing.

Shi Qingxue was clear about this point, too. Looking at Mo Shujun’s ugly features, she didn’t want to argue with her endlessly.

She stared at Mo Shujun and expressed directly, “Grandma, maybe you don’t know that the government has an advanced technology. Even if the baby is not born, it can be matched with the biological father and then they can eventually confirm who on earth the father is.”

“No way!” Mo Shujun’s eyes widened in astonishment. Why didn’t she know that the medical skills in the country were so advanced?

In fact, Mo Shujun guessed right. The ordinary doctors in the country were not so capable indeed, while Shen Luo might be able to do that. However, if he confirmed the truth, it would only give Mo Shujun an excuse to resort to sophistry.

Shi Qingxue said that, which was really to trick Mo Shujun.

She continued, “But if we do that, the baby in Leng Yan’s womb can’t be kept alive. Although we have to find who the father is, we can’t kill an innocent baby for no reason. Do you think so?”

Mo Shujun had fallen into Shi Qingxue’s trap. Hearing the girl’s words, she nodded repeatedly and replied in a hurry, “Right. No matter what happens, we can’t do something so evil. We’d rather not find the truth than harm our family’s fame because of that.”

Such words seemed so righteous with sufficient reasons and justice.

Shi Qingxue pursed her lips and knew more about Mo Shujun’s shamelessness.

However, she didn’t give Mo Shujun a chance to feel lucky. She smiled and stated, “So I have arranged for Leng Yan temporarily. After she is pregnant for nine months and gives birth to the baby, we will send them to the government and let them check if its father is my uncle. Then we will know the truth as soon as they check.”

“You can’t do that!” Mo Shujun yelled emotionally.

After the baby was born, wouldn’t it be solid evidence?

Mo Shujun realized that she was too emotional after yelling and then hurriedly put on a dignified face, explaining, “Kid, what nonsense are you talking about? It is the domestic affair in our family. If you report to the government, wouldn’t it be embarrassing? Are you going to ignore the family’s fame?”

Shi Qingxue sneered and didn’t pretend politeness and compliance. She just retorted, “Uncle Juncai has an affair with his brother’s future concubine but keeps it a secret. He got her pregnant yet still plotted to marry her to his brother. Shouldn’t he be punished?”

Mo Shujun’s face stiffened, and she didn’t give in but argued, “You don’t have evidence. You can’t talk rubbish.”

“So I just wait for the ‘evidence’ to be born and then ask the public to be witnesses, in case that somebody suspects that I frame him on purpose.” Shi Qingxue retorted Mo Shujun’s condemnation softly.

Mo Shujun was rendered speechless. After a while, when she still tried to struggle, Shi Qingxue continued coldly, “By the way, I forgot to tell you just now, Grandma. Leng Yan said in her confession that you have found her secret relationship with my uncle earlier yet insisted on marrying her to Father, trying to deceive everybody and make her unborn baby Duke Shi’s heir…”

Her soft and calm voice revealed all Mo Shujun’s dirty thoughts and made her feel too ashamed to show her face.

When she was about to retort that it was Leng Yan’s one-sided statement, she saw that Shi Qingxue took out Rou’er’s confession, which clearly proved this point.

Even if she argued that the two maids framed her intentionally, as long as Shi Qingxue handed out the two confessions and had Shi Juncai and Leng Yan’s baby checked, it would be useless no matter what Mo Shujun said.

Mo Shujun looked at Shi Qingxue resentfully and finally understood.
