Chapter 1080: Chapter 1080: A Complete Mess

"Old Madam, in Moli Country, filial piety is the most paramount virtue. You cannot teach the young lady to treat the relatives of her foster mother this way." From the crowd, some fearless individuals spoke bluntly to the Old Madam.

The Old Madam trembled with anger: "You people don’t understand the whole story, what nonsense are you spouting? When has the General’s Mansion ever treated them poorly?"

"You dare say no? People are saying they struggle to eat even three meals a day, and the courtyard they live in is practically falling apart."

Three meals a day a problem?

Did something go wrong?

For the past half month, the Old Madam believed that Mo Xiuzhi was carrying Situ Yongjie’s child and had been providing them with good food and care.

Now, the Mo family’s members had the audacity to spread it across the Capital, claiming that the General’s Mansion treated them unfairly.

They did not even consider what disgraceful actions they had committed to get themselves thrown out of the mansion. Thinking of this, the Old Madam was irate beyond measure.

Beside her, Old Lady Zhang, who was supporting the Old Madam, couldn’t help but say, "Stop spouting nonsense! It was them who wronged the General’s Mansion, causing the Old Madam to drive them out. Now they have the nerve to turn the tables!"

"No matter how grave the situation, throwing people out is heartless. They’ve raised the young lady for over ten years; they’ve shown kindness to the General’s Mansion. Doing such a thing is truly ungrateful and unkind."

"Exactly! Throwing people onto the streets in this freezing weather—they’re lucky they haven’t frozen to death already. The General’s Mansion is truly ruthless, treating human lives like playthings."

The commotion attracted a crowd, and soon, onlookers gathered to watch the drama unfold.

The Mo family members noticed the Old Madam had arrived.

Moreover, with the crowd speaking on their behalf, they began crying more fiercely: "Truly heartless! We worked hard to help raise the young lady for the General’s Mansion, and now that we’re no longer useful, this is how they treat us. Wuwuwu, they’ve left the Mo family no way to survive!"

The Old Madam trembled violently with anger, her complexion turning darker by the second.

Seeing this, Old Lady Zhang immediately turned to the spectators and announced, "Don’t listen to the Mo family’s lies. We’ve gone above and beyond for them. They deceived the General, deceived the General’s Mansion, and nearly sullied the purity of our household bloodline."

Then, Old Lady Zhang turned furiously toward Mo Xiuzhi and said, "Miss Mo, say something truthful for once. When has the General’s Mansion ever treated you unfairly?"

Mo Xiuzhi, while wiping away her tears, said, "The General did me the greatest wrong by staining my honor, yet he refuses to take me as his concubine."

This sentence was like a thunderclap, exploding within the crowd.

"What? General Situ committed such an outrageous offense!"

"Indeed! She raised his daughter, yet he laid hands on her grandson. What a beast! How could the General Lord stoop so low?"

Upon hearing this, the Old Madam clutched her chest, gasping heavily for air.

Old Lady Zhang hurriedly thumped her back: "Old Madam, don’t lower yourself to the level of these unruly people! They don’t know the truth, so they’re spewing nonsense."

Old Lady Mo retorted, "What nonsense? Go ask the General whether he’s ever shared a bed with Xiuzhi."

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted into another wave of chatter...

"Miss Mo is the young lady’s sister, isn’t she? And he still dared to act so?"

"Morality has truly decayed."

Listening to these growing scandals, the Old Madam finally couldn’t endure any longer. A gasp stuck in her chest, and her eyes rolled back as she fainted.

Old Lady Zhang was terrified and caught hold of her: "Old Madam, Old Madam, what’s wrong?"

The servants saw the situation and descended into chaos.

Old Lady Zhang shouted at the panicking servants: "Why are you just standing there? Hurry and carry the Old Madam back to the mansion and send for the doctor!"
