Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 394 - Chapter 394 Chapter 394 Good-for-Nothing Brother-in-law

Chapter 394: Chapter 394: Good-for-Nothing Brother-in-law Chapter 394: Chapter 394: Good-for-Nothing Brother-in-law Today was the first time Mo Hengjian had seen Big Bull. Although he had often heard his parents talk at home these past few days about how impressive Big Bull was, he still looked down upon him, thinking to himself that if Big Bull were really that great, would he be willing to stay in such a poor and remote place? Only bumpkins like his parents could be deceived by him.

“You bumpkin, do you even know how to respect your elders,” Hengjian, who prided himself on having seen more of the world, held Big Bull in utter contempt and said disdainfully, glancing at him sideways.

After all, Big Bull was dressed in coarse clothes. These days, while dealing with the construction of the house under the scorching sun, his face had tanned quite a bit, indeed resembling a farmer.

Madam Ruan had witnessed firsthand how formidable Big Bull could be.

Seeing her son so ignorant and daring to provoke him, she quickly tugged at his arm, signaling him not to mess with this Plague God, “Jianjian, what nonsense are you spouting? He is your future brother-in-law.”

Hengjian shook off Madam Ruan’s hand forcefully and said, “Who knows where this bumpkin sprang from, some dogshit brother-in-law.”

Madam Ruan stole a glance and noticed that Big Bull’s face was growing darker by the moment. Fearing her son would come to harm, she quickly signaled to Mo Daoyan with her eyes.

Mo Daoyan got the hint immediately, and with a forceful pull, he dragged Hengjian away, “Jianjian, let’s go. Your grandfather is waiting at home for you to have breakfast. Today, your mother made you fried eggs, they’re really delicious.”

“Ouch! What’s the rush to eat! What time is it now? Of course, my grandmother’s matter is more important! If we don’t get the silver, you two will have to pay for my schooling expenses!” In his anxiety, Mo Hengjian blurted out his true thoughts.

The neighbors gathered around the door, and upon hearing this, they all understood. It seemed the Mo family, seeing the Xie family’s newfound wealth, wanted to catch a free ride on their fortune.

Hengjian, a fragile scholar who had been pampered from a young age and had never done any heavy lifting, was no match for his father, Mo Daoyan. No matter how much he struggled, he was still dragged away by Daoyan.

Seeing her son and the others leaving, Old Lady Mo also feared that Big Bull might throw her onto the roof as he had before, so she quickly hung her head and followed quietly.

As the spectators saw them leave, they too dispersed in twos and threes.

When they had finally gone, Big Bull turned around and, with a look of tender love, said to Xuexue, “Wife, shall we set off for the town now?”

Xuexue nodded, thinking that they certainly had to go. It wasn’t just for buying supplies for the wedding feast that day; she had an important task to accomplish as well, “Yes, let’s go!”

“Then let’s go.”

“Big Bull, wait a moment. I have something to say to Aunt Li.”

“Alright.” While agreeing, Big Bull waited at the door for Xuexue to come out.

Xuexue pulled Aunt Li aside.

Aunt Li asked curiously, “Xuexue, what’s the matter?”

Xuexue said, “Aunt Li, you’ve seen what my family is like. My mother has a gentle nature. With both Big Bull and me away in town, and no one at home, I fear that the folks from the Mo family might come to bully her.”

Aunt Li nodded in understanding, “Don’t worry. With me around, if they dare come to make trouble again, I’ll go to the village head.”

“That’s a relief.”

Xuexue was reassured.

“You go ahead, I, the Old Maid, will take care of your mother’s safety,” Aunt Li assured, thumping her chest solemnly.

In her youth, Aunt Li had been a notable figure in Mo Family Village. Although she was now old and had become temperamental following her partner’s death, her family still had considerable wealth, so the other villagers didn’t dare to provoke her much.
