Chapter 421: Chapter 421 Shameless Retaliation (3)_1

Mo Yan’s face turned extremely ugly as she shouted harshly, "Wang Dali, what exactly are you trying to do by barging into my house like this?" Wang Dali was a scoundrel with no small amount of courage; if his family really dared to take action, hers would undoubtedly suffer.

The Mo Family’s residence was some distance away from the village. Normally, aside from people going up the mountain to chop wood, few would pass by this way. Otherwise, if Wang Dali and his family had barged in, someone would certainly have come to stop them. But now, all she could do was try to keep the situation under control temporarily.

"Hmph, you’re not willing to let me off the hook, so don’t expect me to let you have an easy time either! Anyway, I’m about to be chased out of Liu Yang Village, and I couldn’t care less!"

Wang Dali’s expression was twisted, his eyes dark and filled with resentment. He didn’t believe for a second that being expelled from Liu Yang Village was his own fault. Instead, he resented Mo Yan for not pleading on his behalf, and his heart was filled with hatred for her and the Mo Family.

Seeing his reaction, Mo Yan knew that reasoning with someone like him was futile, and her expression grew colder. "If you dare to cause trouble in my house, do you believe that tomorrow I could have government officers throw your entire family into jail? You’re not afraid of prison, but are you not worried about your whole family, young and old, being locked up too? I’ve heard that in this bitter cold of deep winter, prisoners in cells are most likely to die from illness or freeze to death. If you really aren’t afraid, then go ahead and make your move!"

Wang Dali, who was about to signal his wife and children to start a fight, remembered his previous extortion attempt on the Mo Family for Five Hundred Taels of Silver which ended up with him being thrown into jail, along with what he had seen and heard there, and the dozens of floggings that seared his backside with pain. His face changed color at the thought.

"You, you’re just trying to scare me. Do you think the Government Office is run by your family, that you can have whoever you want arrested?"

Mo Yan could clearly see through his bluster and scoffed, "Haven’t you heard ’money talks’? As long as I have silver, even if you haven’t laid a finger on anyone, I can still ensure your family spends the New Year in a cell!"

Before Wang Dali could say anything, Sister-in-law Wang was already cowed. "Dear, let’s, let’s just drop it. If this wretched girl really bribes the government officers to throw us in jail, our family will really have no way out!"

The Wang Family’s kids were also terrified, pulling at Wang Dali’s sleeve and joining in the clamor. They didn’t know exactly how frightening the prison was, but the sight of Wang Dali being carried horizontally with a blood-soaked backside when he came out was etched in their memories, even haunting their nightmares.

Faced with Mo Yan’s threat, Wang Dali was already considering backing down, but he was not ready to let it go without a struggle. He glared at her with even more venom in his eyes. "Humph, if you’re so tough, go to the authorities and have me thrown in jail right now. If you don’t go to the village head tomorrow to say you won’t pursue the matter of me blackmailing you, I’ll keep causing trouble every day. See if I don’t!"

After saying this, he led his limping family out of the Mo Family’s gate. Just before leaving, Sister-in-law Wang delivered a vicious kick to the gate, producing a loud clang and spat a large glob of saliva on it. The children, following behind, imitated her, laughing insolently as they made their departure.

"Big sister, the Wang Family has gone too far," Zhenzhen exclaimed, her face red with anger, her fists clenched as though she was ready to charge out. "Tell Uncle Village Chief to expel their entire family from the village!"

"Wait!" Mo Yan grabbed her, looking at the mud prints on the gate and frowning. "If you go and tell the village chief just because they kicked the gate a few times, at most he’ll scold them a bit, which won’t have any effect on them."

Zhenzhen pursed her lips tightly, unwilling to let the matter rest. "So we’re just going to let them off? Wang Dali has already declared it, that shameless man will definitely come to cause trouble again tomorrow."

"Let them make a fuss. After the New Year, once Wang Dali is chased away, it’ll be fine."
