I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies Chapter 162 – 162 Mo Ruyue’s Attitude

162 Mo Ruyue’s Attitude

Now that there was a “good medicine” that could cure both of his worries, this was really good news that made him happy. If both of his worries could be solved at the same time, that would be great.

The next evening, the county magistrate returned to his study after a day’s work.

There was a manservant at the door, pacing back and forth. He seemed to have been waiting for him for a long time. When he saw him coming, he immediately walked over to greet him.

The county magistrate led the way into the study, with the manservant following closely behind. After entering the room, he immediately closed the door.

“Tell me, what did you find?”

The county magistrate sat down behind his desk and impatiently asked.

Master, I found out that Mo Ruyue went to a private school in a nearby village to enroll her babies, but she didn’t want the two older ones to start from the elementary classes, so she made a bet with the private school teacher. If she could catch up with the upper grade’s courses by the time she entered the fall school, she wouldn’t have to waste time with the elementary class.

The manservant reported everything he had found to the county magistrate, no matter how big or small. By the time he had finished, the time to brew a cup of tea had already passed.

“In that case, she originally did not want those little brats to go down the path of an official, so she invited Du Zhongheng? And it’s the old man, Imperial physician Tian who introduced her to him.”

The county magistrate muttered to himself. Things seemed to be a little different from what he had imagined. It turned out that those little brats had no intention of participating in the imperial examinations. Then Du Zhongheng’s move did not seem to be that important.

The moment he thought of how he finally had a chance to deal with Mo Ruyue, but now that he didn’t have a chance to use it, his mood became particularly irritable.

“Eldest Master, I’ve also found out that Mo Ruyue quarreled with her mother-in-law because of Du Zhongheng. She seemed to have written a complaint against her mother-in-law for slander. Did you not receive her complaint?”

The servant carefully reminded the magistrate as he saw his expression change.

“Huh? So that is the situation…”

The magistrate was taken aback. Now that he was reminded of it, he did have a vague impression of it.

At that time, Mo Ruyue had handed in a complaint, but he didn’t even look at it because he thought that no matter what the contents were, being able to be sued would definitely affect Mo Ruyue.

He just wanted to suppress it and not deal with it. As long as it was dealt with a day later, Mo Ruyue would suffer another day’s losses, whether it was in terms of reputation or material goods. Then, he would be very happy.

It was for this reason that he had casually thrown the accusation into a pile of invalid accusations, intending to ignore it. Mo Ruyue had not submitted any more accusations, and he had not even asked about it. Therefore, the county magistrate had thrown the matter to the back of his mind.

Now that he heard the manservant’s words, he immediately remembered. When he heard that Mo Ruyue had actually written a petition to sue his mother-in-law for a man, he immediately felt blood rushing to his head.

Could it be that she had taken a fancy to that Du Zhongheng?

That’s right, the title of the world’s number one scholar was indeed able to attract a woman’s attention. But she didn’t think that man would never be able to become an official in this life, let alone give her any happiness. He couldn’t be compared to her at all!

“Go and call Grand Master over, immediately!”

The county magistrate immediately said to the manservant. He couldn’t sit still anymore, so he came out from behind the table and started pacing around the room.

“Old Master, you called for me?”

When the private advisor heard that the county magistrate was calling for him, he jogged over. He didn’t know if the county magistrate had any instructions for him.

“Go to that pile of discarded complaints and look around. You should be able to find the complaint that Mo Ruyue submitted a few days ago. Once you find it, immediately send it to me!”

The county magistrate ordered his private advisor.

In fact, he could go and find it himself, but that would be a little too eye-catching. He had always been cautious in doing things and rarely left anything for people to use against him. Even if he found an “abandoned” accusation, he would not give people a reason to say anything.

When the advisor heard this, he immediately went to the storeroom.

All the complaints that had been submitted were sealed there. They were divided into three parts: accepted, pending, and abandoned. Each part had a different storage age and would be destroyed when the time came.

Since the county magistrate had said that the suit was in the “abandoned” section, it meant that he had no intention of dealing with it. But now that he suddenly thought about it, it might be related to the matter of him finding people to investigate Du Zhongheng.

Seeing the county magistrate’s urgency, the advisor didn’t dare to delay. After rummaging through the warehouse for half a day, he finally found “Mo Ruyue” written on the cover of a memorial that had been abandoned nearly a month ago.

It was sealed, so obviously, the old man didn’t even open it to take a look and just threw it into the “abandoned” pile.

The advisor hurriedly ran back with the report. This time, he almost bumped into the county magistrate when he entered. The County Magistrate had impatiently come out to welcome him after hearing the advisor’s footsteps.

“Old master, I’ve found the accusation.”

The advisor handed over the unopened file and sensibly used his body to block his movements to prevent others from seeing what he had handed to the county magistrate.

The county magistrate looked at his things and nodded to himself. The advisor had indeed followed him for a long time and was familiar with his style of doing things. Even without his instructions, this master could figure out his intentions and make the right response.

“Grand Master, you stay here first. I have other instructions for you later.”

As the magistrate spoke, he had already turned around and returned to his desk. The advisor also entered and sat at a nearby table.

After removing the seal on the accusation, Magistrate Liu immediately began to read through it.

The more he read, the uglier his expression became. He didn’t think that this was the reason why Mo Ruyue had written the complaint!

On the first day she brought Du Zhongheng home, her mother-in-law thought that she had brought an adulterer to her house and then brought people to catch them in the act!

The county magistrate’s attention was all on Mo Ruyue bringing a young man home. She was a widow. Didn’t she know what it meant to bring a strange man home?

So what if there were five babies at home? If they really wanted something to happen, they could just find a reason to send them out. Besides, with the children as a cover, it would be more convenient for them to do dirty things!

The county magistrate’s teeth creaked as he gritted them. His mind was filled with dirty and erotic images. Although he knew that nothing had happened between the two of them, he still couldn’t control his thoughts.

Just because he didn’t do it then didn’t mean that he wouldn’t do it in the future. Du Zhongheng had been the private tutor of the five babies for more than a month. Anything could’ve happened in this month.

The advisor had been carefully observing the county magistrate’s expression the entire time. He noticed that the county magistrate’s expression was extremely ferocious when he looked at the report, and he could even faintly hear the sound of the county magistrate gnashing his teeth.

What exactly was written in Mo Ruyue’s accusation to make the county magistrate so furious? It looked like he was going to burn someone’s bones and scatter their ashes.
