Chapter 503: Chapter 503: Methods of Divorce (1)_1

Mo Wu’s words exploded like a thunderclap next to Mo Yan’s ear, leaving her reeling for a while before she could respond. She quickly helped Mo Wu to sit down and anxiously asked, "Aunt, what on earth happened? How could you suddenly..." have such a thought?

No wonder Mo Yan was surprised. In the past, even though Mo Wu had a hard time living with Mo Hong’s family, she never spoke of divorcing Mo Yongfu. Now that her snack stand business was improving day by day, she suddenly wanted to divorce. With her gentle nature, even after being pushed to the brink of jumping into a river by Mrs. Hong last year, which made her much tougher, she remained a gentle woman. Something she didn’t know about must have happened, and it must have been very serious!

Unless she was driven to desperation, how could Mo Wu ever bring up divorce? And the only ones who could have pushed her to this point were the people from Lao Mo’s House, perhaps even Mo Yongfu himself had a part in it, thoroughly wounding her heart and driving her to consider divorce.

This question only reopened Mo Wu’s wounds, causing tears to stream down her face. After being consoled by Mo Yan for a while, she finally stopped crying and said in a choked voice, "I can’t stay in Lao Mo’s House any longer, and I don’t want to, they’re all pressing me... pressing me... The affection of many years between husband and wife is now gone... I want to divorce Mo Yongfu... divorce... to stay far away from the pit that is Lao Mo’s House..."

Seeing Mo Wu refer to herself not as "your aunt" but as "I" in front of her, Mo Yan knew the matter was no trivial one, and that the talk of divorce was not just an empty threat.

She suppressed the urgency in her heart, comforting Mo Wu patiently until her emotions had stabilized. After carefully inquiring for a while, she finally understood the cause and effect of the situation.

It turned out that after Mrs. Hong and Mrs. Niu had made a scene at the snack stand for half a day and came away without any benefit, which furthermore infuriated them, they developed a rooted hatred for Mo Wu, whom they deemed "disobedient." When they returned home, they, together with Mo Yongxi, decided Mo Wu must be holding a good amount of Silver Coin and hence plotted to extract that Silver from her.

Mo Wu had long recognized the true colors of these people and was vigilant. Except for Dani, who knew the real situation and shared half of the snack stand business, she told no one. She also repeatedly cautioned Dani to be careful and not to let these people worm any information out of her.

Though Dani inherited Mo Wu’s soft nature, she was clear-headed. Naturally, she never divulged anything about the snack stand to those three, and even when her father Mo Yongfu unintentionally asked a few times, she insisted that the snack stand belonged to her cousin and that the mother and daughter were only helping to earn wages.

For several months, the three in-laws tried everything, both hard and soft approaches, but still failed to pry any information from the mother and daughter. On a daily basis, aside from cursing and giving dirty looks to the mother and daughter, they could only watch helplessly as they went out early and returned late to earn Silver, feeling an itch as if they were being scratched by a hundred cats.

The three were insatiably greedy; how could they give up easily? If it weren’t for the bad reputation of Lao Mo’s House in the village and the village head’s warning that if Lao Mo’s House caused any more trouble, they would all be driven out of Liu Yang Village, they would have long since captured Mo Wu’s mother and daughter, forcing them to hand over the Silver and the snack recipes.

Since they couldn’t handle Mo Wu’s mother and daughter, they turned their sights on Mo Yongfu.

Mo Yongfu was honest and slow-witted, and he had no ability to provide a good life for his parents and siblings. From childhood, among the four siblings, he always did the most but received the least.

He was somewhat aware of the situation, knowing his parents were partial, and that his wife and children had often suffered wrongs because of it. But deep down, he was more inclined towards his parents, so he pretended not to see. It wasn’t until Si Nier was sold and other incidents followed that he began to harbor dissatisfaction towards his parents and gradually stopped being as obedient to them as before.
