I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies Chapter 198 – 198 Self

198 Self-injury

San Bao asked doubtfully. When he saw everyone’s gaze, he added, “I mean, why did Second Uncle hit Second Aunt at this time? Shouldn’t it be time for us to work together and get through this together?”

“Don’t you know who Second Uncle is? There’s no one in that family who can get through this together.”

Er Bao answered for Mo Ruyue. He still remembered the days in the past.

“Do you guys know why Qin Qingyuan was bitten by a snake?”

Mo Ruyue suddenly asked.

She also wanted to see if the babies could see through the second branch’s scheme if she didn’t expose them.

“When Second Aunt kneeled in front of our house to see you, she said that Qin Qingyuan was trying to hunt a rabbit on the mountain and got bitten, but I don’t think it’s the case.”

San Bao took the lead and said.

“There are all kinds of grass snakes and venomous snakes on the mountain. If you get bitten by a grass snake, you’ll only be swollen for a few days and you’ll just limp when you walk. It’s not life-threatening. Besides, who doesn’t know of herbs that can reduce swelling and pain in the mountains? There’s no need to ask Mother for help.”

“I think there’s a problem too.”

Tang Tang also expressed her opinion.

“As soon as Mother appeared, Qin Qingfei ran over and said that Qin Qingyuan was dying. How could a grass snake bite a person to death? Only a poisonous snake would do that, right? But if he was bitten by a venomous snake, and he knew that Mother wasn’t there, why didn’t he rush to the county? Why did he insist on waiting for mother to come back? It’s obvious that there’s something wrong!”

Although Tang Tang was young, her analysis was clear and convincing.

“Si Bao, what do you think?”

Mo Ruyue did not announce the answer. Instead, she asked Si Bao.

Now, only he and Da Bao did not express their opinions. Mo Ruyue was very confident in Da Bao’s judgment, so he only asked Si Bao.

“I have the same thoughts as my siblings. Qin Qingyuan’s injury is too problematic. He just pretended to be in a dire situation in the village, and then he got injured because he had to go up the mountain to hunt rabbits. He had to wait for Mother to come and save him. Isn’t this setting up a trap for our family?”

Mo Ruyue nodded in satisfaction.

Her babies were all very smart. If they were not tied down by the so-called family ties, they were actually not easy to deceive. This way, she could be a little more relieved.

“You’re all right, they’re just trying to hurt themselves.”

Mo Ruyue announced the answer to the babies.

She wasn’t afraid of letting them see the cruelty of the truth. Instead, she was afraid that they couldn’t see it clearly.

“Just for the ten taels of fine silver? Even though our two families have separated, but when we separated, Eldest Brother still did not ask them for many things, like the gold and silver jewelry that Father sent, back.”

“Even if grandma is in prison and the key to the money box is in her hands, it’s not to the extent that she can’t even take out ten taels of silver. Isn’t Second Uncle afraid of ruining Qin Qingyuan’s life by asking him to do this? ”

Although San Bao had already guessed the answer, he still could not believe it.

In fact, among the five babies, he was the most boorish, but he also valued friendship the most. The only one who was most likely to be a good person was not the gentle Si Bao, but him.

“It’s not that they can’t take out ten taels of silver, but to Second Uncle’s family, it isn’t distressing for them if they spend that silver on themselves. But if they were to give it to us, not to mention ten taels, even one copper coin would be like asking for their lives.”

Da Bao finally spoke. His expression was calm, but his voice was extremely cold.

“Alright, this matter will end here. The reason Mother told you is to let you try to analyze the ins and outs of this matter. Mother can’t always be by your side, you should learn to grow up on your own.”

Mo Ruyue’s words made the few babies look at each other. In the end, Er Bao stepped forward to be the representative and asked carefully, “Mother, what are you going to do?”

In fact, they regretted urging their mother to save people. If it weren’t for this, their mother wouldn’t have to go to court and be chosen by Huichun Hall. She would leave early and return late, and wouldn’t have as much time at home as before.

“I might have to go on a long trip soon, but I’ll be back in three or four days at most. I’m afraid that I’ll have to leave for a long time in the future, so you’ll have to get used to it from now on.”

Mo Ruyue explained her plan unhurriedly. Even if she didn’t say it now, she would still say it two days later when everything was ready.

“Mother, we’ve all grown up. You and Mr. Du have taught us a lot. At least it’s not a problem to take care of ourselves. You don’t have to worry.”

Under such circumstances, Da Bao was still the first one to express his opinion. As the eldest brother of the babies, he had to take good care of his younger siblings when their parents were not around.

“I’m not worried that you won’t be able to take care of yourselves. I’m just worried that you’ll lack the necessary judgment in certain matters. But now it seems that I don’t need to worry about such things.

Mo Ruyue looked up in satisfaction at the group of children surrounding him. Suddenly, she felt a sense of accomplishment as if “my family’s treasure has just grown”.

As expected, there was a reason for the huge number of players in the development games in her previous life.

Since they had already decided to operate on the prefectural magistrate’s daughter, they could not avoid the issue of blood. This was different from operating on the old woman. Ordinary excuses could not fool the prefectural magistrate at all.

So Mo Ruyue decided to talk to the magistrate in person. She had to let him understand the risks of the entire operation and provide some convenient conditions for her to perform the operation in the future.

Her letter received a reply very quickly. Although the magistrate was very busy, this matter concerned his daughter’s health and the family’s reputation. He still attached great importance to this matter.

He made an appointment to meet Mo Ruyue the day after tomorrow and even gave her an address.

Ping City, where the magistrate lived, was nearly two hundred miles away from the Qin Village where Mo Ruyue lived. If they were to travel by horse carriage, it would probably take four to five days.

However, Ping City was also the largest city in the vicinity. It was also a hub for both land and water transportation. The prosperity of Ping City was far beyond that of the county.

Before Mo Ruyue had sent the message to the magistrate, she had already started to prepare for the meeting. Not only did she have to bring a series of tools, but she also had to prepare a fast horse.

She had excellent horsemanship. If she rode to Ping City, it would only take her three days to make a round trip.

In the future, as long as it was a long journey, she planned to ride back and forth on a horse. This would save her time to the greatest extent.

Therefore, she went to the county market to pick a good horse. It had to be fast and have strong endurance. Most of the horses in the livestock market were used to work in the fields or to pull carriages. There was not a single horse that caught her eye.

After going around two times, Mo Ruyue decided to go to a city further away to take a look. As expected, it was very difficult to find good things if there was no way.

However, just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a black horse with its head lowered in the corner of the livestock market.

The horse was extremely tall, but it was emaciated. Its body was covered with mustard moss and scars. It looked like it did not have many days left to live.
