66 A Typical Tough Mouth But Soft Heart
Mo Ruyue glanced at him in disgust before looking away. She had nothing to say to this kind of unfilial and ungrateful person. It was just a pity that the old woman was still reasonable and knew how to be grateful, but she had such a son. She didn’t know how difficult her future days would be.
However, this was someone else’s family matter. Mo Ruyue was unwilling and had no right to interfere. Her silence made Nie Wu relax. It seemed that she would not expose him.
“Madam Qin, I have to thank you for saving my mother. I was wrong before. I shouldn’t have doubted your ability. I just didn’t expect you to have real ability. I was blind and looked down on you. Please forgive me!”
In the end, Nie Wu bit the bullet and opened his mouth. At least if he apologized now, he would still be a grateful person in the eyes of others. No one would think that he would do something like abandoning his own mother.
Mo Ruyue had a deep understanding of human nature, so she could tell at a glance whether he was really repenting or faking an apology. She didn’t expect this person to still want to make his people glorious at this time. It really made her feel uncomfortable.
“You can take her away, cut the crap.” Mo Ruyue said coldly.
She was trying very hard to control her desire to hit someone. If Nie Wu continued to buzz around her like a fly, she couldn’t guarantee which part of his face her fist would land on.
Nie Wu seemed to have felt Mo Ruyue’s suppressed killing intent and didn’t dare to say anything more. The carriage changed direction and sent Nie Wu and his mother back to Sixth Uncle’s house.
Before they left, some of the onlooking villagers also wanted to come over and talk to Mo Ruyue, but her face was as black as the bottom of a pot. It was just short of writing the words ‘in a bad mood’ on her face. No one wanted to go up and ask for a rebuff at this time, so they let her leave smoothly.
After sending the old woman off, Mo Ruyue brought Da Bao home. On the way home, Da Bao wanted to say something but stopped himself several times. However, when he saw Mo Ruyue’s expression, he swallowed his words back into his stomach.
When the mother and son returned home, the babies, who had been waiting for news, heard the commotion and immediately ran out of the house. However, before they could speak, they saw their eldest brother standing behind their mother and shaking his head and waving at them. Although the babies did not know what had happened, they chose to shut up temporarily out of trust for their eldest brother.
Although Mo Ruyue did not have eyes on the back of her head, she could sense Da Bao’s small movements behind her. She was too lazy to care and directly led the mule to the side, ready to unload the carriage.
She seemed to have spoiled these children too much. Next time, she couldn’t let them do whatever they wanted.
Although Mo Ruyue was thinking this in her heart, she didn’t realize that she had made exceptions time and time again for the children. She was a classic example of a soft-hearted person who didn’t know when she was soft-hearted.
“Big brother, what’s wrong with Mother? Didn’t you save her? Why does she look so unhappy when she’s back?”
Er Bao saw that Mo Ruyue was far away and thought that she could not hear him. He moved closer to Da Bao and asked doubtfully.
“That’s right, big brother, why is Mother not happy? She was still fine before she left. ”
San Bao also came over. She was shocked when she saw her mother’s expression just now. She did not even dare to speak to her mother without her elder brother’s signal.
Si Bao and Tang Tang were also eager to say something. However, since their elder brothers had already said what they wanted to say, they could only nod their heads in agreement.
“Don’t disturb Mother. I’ll tell you what happened just now in detail later. Not only is she angry, but even I’m angry to death. ”
Da Bao rarely spoke so much at once. There were also times when he was agitated and would blurt out long paragraphs. It was obvious that he was also very angry now, but he did not show it as obviously as Mo Ruyue.
When the babies heard this, they immediately fell silent. If even their big brother was so angry, something terrible must have happened.
Although Mo Ruyue didn’t mean to eavesdrop on the babies’ conversation, she couldn’t help but have such good hearing that she could hear every single word they said.
In fact, by this time, the anger in her heart had mostly subsided. It was just that when she was angry in the past, she would maintain her sulky expression for a long time. Even if she was no longer angry, she would still have that deadpan expression.
Back then, Gu Ying had said that she was clearly not angry, but she still had a long face, making it difficult to figure out if she was still angry.
Mo Ruyue’s hand paused. She hadn’t thought of that name for a long time, or perhaps she was deliberately trying not to think of it.
When the accident happened, she saw the blood-covered Gu Ying fall to the ground first. When she woke up, she was in the world of the book, but she never knew what happened to Gu Ying, whether she was alive or dead.
She was her childhood friend. They had known each other in the assassin training camp at the age of five. After saving each other’s lives, they had become each other’s solid backing.
After more than ten years of life and death, they had long integrated each other into their bones and blood. Even if they had thought of countless situations where they could separate from each other, such a possibility was absolutely impossible.
So what if they were separated by yin and yang? It was just another form of separation between time and space, no different from now.
The big young mule next to her let out a breath. It pawed the ground lightly with its hooves a few times, pulling Mo Ruyue back from her memories. She looked at the familiar yet strange courtyard and silently put that name in her heart again.
Gu Ying, no matter where you are, I wish you and I are well.
The babies knew that Mo Ruyue was in a bad mood. One by one, they took the initiative to help with the domestic affairs. They were very well-behaved. Even San Bao and Si Bao, who loved to play with each other the most, had quieted down a lot.
However, the silence in the courtyard didn’t last long before it was interrupted by a knock on the door.
Da Bao was holding a broom in his hand and was sweeping the yard. When he heard the sound, he went to knock on the door. When he opened the door and saw the person standing outside, his expression immediately faded.
“Sixth Uncle, why are you here? Is there anything you want to say that you haven’t finished and have come to add on?”
Da Bao’s expression and attitude were indifferent. Other than not being very friendly, no one could find any fault with him.
When the Sixth Uncle heard Da Bao’s words, he felt a little embarrassed. After all, he had just done everything to protect his wife’s relative, whether it was lying or splashing dirty water. Now, he had to come to their door to ask for help. It was indeed a little embarrassing.
He was helpless. Not only was he entrusted by someone, but he also had something he had to ask of Mo Ruyue, so he could only thicken his skin and come to visit.
“Da Bao, is your mother not at home? I have something to say, can you let me in first?”
If it was in accordance with his previous temperament, he would have long blown his beard and glared at a brat who dared to block him at the door and not let him in. However, now he was not only in the wrong but also had to ask for help. Naturally, he did not dare to go too far. After all, everyone in the village knew how protective Mo Ruyue was of her children.
