Chapter 59 - Stop laughing

Just like that, the Li mama and the Xu began to argue.

But she was just an old woman, not only was her body and strength inferior to Xu, she also had a male Mo Yue.

Even if they argued till the end, it would only be her who would suffer a loss.

In order to prevent her from speaking out, Mo Yue and Xu had even fiercely beat Li mama up.

Li mama left Mo Yue's home without a single cent.

The people in the village who saw her all had looks of contempt in their eyes, and none of them were willing to shelter her any longer.

Despair overwhelmed her.

Because she knew that in this situation, the Mo Village would not be able to stay.

However, without her luggage, she would starve to death even if she had to wait a few more years, much less return to the capital.

She fell back on the road in despair and cried bitterly with her face in her hands.

She felt that it might really be her retribution.

Now that he thought about it, everything that used to be glorious and glorious seemed to be built on the suffering of others.

She had deducted other people's wages, deducted other people's food, kept them hungry and cold, and forced them to do hard labor.

Thinking up to here, she had naturally thought of how she had treated Mo Xiyan before as well.

Just thinking of such a small child being tormented by her to the point where she almost lost half her life was enough to make her heart feel sad.

It was indeed her fault.

She wiped the tears off her face and staggered to her feet, then walked towards Sang Nu's house again.

Seeing her walk towards Sang Nu's house, the villagers all pointed at her and started cursing at her.

"Look, who was it? So it's Madame Prime Minister's dog, didn't you just eat enough? You actually still dare to seek the misfortune of the Miss Mo? "

"Hmph, that's a dog. Other than biting people, what else do you know?"

"That's right, I should go and notify Miss Mo first, so that I won't be scared by this dog."

A busybody had already ran towards the Sang Nu's home.

One of them started to run, and so did the others.

Not long later, someone told Mo Xiyan about Li mama coming back.

"It's here again?"

Mo Xiyan was slightly surprised for a moment, but then recovered to normal. She smiled at the few villagers who came to report, and said softly, "Thank you everyone for reporting to me."

Then she looked at Zhang Ye, and continued, "Zhang Ye, send them out, and thank them on my behalf."

"Yes, Mistress."

Zhang Ye had also worked in the Palace for a few years, and he had followed the manager around, so he was clear about these kinds of things.

Therefore, the moment Mo Xiyan said this, he immediately understood.

With a professional smile, he led the villagers away.

Looking at the background of their departure, a dark light flashed in Mo Xiyan's eyes. That old thing was only scheming about the money in her hands.

She had thought that after what had happened, she could at least rest for a few days.

Who would have thought that they would come knocking at their doorstep again in just a few minutes?

However, since these villagers came to find her, didn't that mean that she already had a firm foothold in the village?

Well, it shouldn't count. The villagers only came to kiss her ass because of the money.

If it wasn't for that job, he probably wouldn't have treated her like this.

She snorted coldly in her heart. Since she was coming, she might as well ride the donkey and see who had the last laugh.

At this time, Zhang Ye had already brought the villagers to the courtyard door, and when he stepped out, he took out some crushed silver and distributed it to them.

"I don't know if the big brothers are coming, but the family doesn't have anything that they can take out. Everyone should spend these few liang of silver first."

Saying this, he deliberately paused for a moment before continuing, "As for the job of building the house, I will prioritize all of you as a repayment for your concern for the house."

When they heard what he said, all of them started laughing joyfully. Although they said 'Housekeeper Zhang is polite', they were extremely excited in their hearts.

They could not help but rejoice that they had too many things to do. They had already made a good profit from this less than ten taels of silver.

As they happily left, Zhang Ye habitually sent them off with his eyes. He did not expect to coincidentally see the miserable figure of the Li mama hobbling his way over.

He could not help but let out a cold snort. He turned around and closed the gate as if he didn't see it.

Unfortunately, he pretended not to see it, and Li mama saw him.

"Zhang Ye, wait a moment."

She shouted towards Zhang Ye.

Since she had already called for him, it would be inappropriate for Zhang Ye to continue leaving. He could only turn around and look at Li mama.

Only when she was right in front of him did he ask coldly, "What are you doing here?"

"I came to apologize to Eldest Miss."

The reason that the Li mama sincerely came over was to kowtow a few times to Mo Xiyan.

If she was before, this would have been impossible.

But now, she was sincere.

However, she had changed her mindset. No one else knew about this.

Zhang Ye naturally would not believe her.

He took her words as a joke and said with an even worse attitude, "Save your time, master is busy, I don't have time to see you."

Saying that, he turned around and was about to leave, but was pulled by the Li mama.

"Housekeeper Zhang, please let me see the big miss. What happened before was indeed this old servant's fault. It's only right that she hates me."

Li mama wiped away the tears at the corner of his eyes and said hoarsely, "But this old servant really came in order to kowtow a few times for Eldest Miss. I promise I won't do anything else, please!"

"Leave, Eldest Miss won't see you …"

"Zhang Ye."

Just as Zhang Ye was about to rush her out, Mo Xiyan walked out of the courtyard entrance.

She lowered her eyes, looked down at Li mama, and asked solemnly: "Speak, why are you looking for me?"

When Li mama saw Mo Xiyan, his eyes immediately turned red.

She knelt on the ground with a thud and kowtowed to her several times.

"Eldest Miss, it used to be this old servant's fault. This old servant will apologize to you here. This old servant does not expect you to forgive me, I …"

"Since you're not asking for forgiveness, what are you doing now?"

Mo Xiyan felt that it was extremely funny.

Don't say that she didn't know if Li mama was acting on purpose or was truly regretting.

Well, even if she admitted she was, it wouldn't make up for what had happened.

Not that the original owner had died under her torture.

Even if she hadn't died, she believed that if she hadn't transmigrated here, she would have replaced the original owner.

Then the original owner would still only live in the shadows brought by the Li mama and her by the Madame Prime Minister.

A person like the Li mama was not worth forgiving. Furthermore, she was not some white lotus goddess, and did not have the ability to forgive the wicked.

"I …"

Li mama was also stunned on the spot when he heard Mo Xiyan's words.

Before she came, she had a lot of things she wanted to say to Eldest Miss, but after seeing her, it was as if she became mute and couldn't say anything.

Yes, what was she doing here? Since he didn't beg for forgiveness, he could just let the eldest miss hate him.

After all, she was very clear about how miserable Eldest Miss's life had been in the past.

If it had been her, she would also not have been able to forgive herself.

Thinking about that, Li mama lowered his head and kowtowed to Mo Xiyan again, "First Miss, my apologies, this old servant knows that nothing I do can make up for anything. I just want to kowtow to you, in order to beg for …"

"To seek peace of mind?"

Mo Xiyan snorted lightly, "Don't joke with me, Li mama. If you truly want to be at peace, then do some good deeds, and don't waste your time here."

After saying this, she laughed coldly, "Li mama, do you want to see me off?"

With that, she turned around and returned to the courtyard without any hesitation.

Naturally, Zhang Ye agreed with her. On the way back, he even locked the courtyard door.

After they left, Li mama knelt at the entrance of the courtyard alone and kowtowed a few times.
