I Transmigrated Into a Novel and Became the Vicious Stepmother of Five Cute Babies - Chapter 52
52 The Second Son of the Qin Family
Originally, the babies were supposed to do their homework at this time, but when they heard that Mo Ruyue was going to take them to see a show, they suddenly became excited.
“Mother, should we continue to do our night homework after we return?”
Er Bao was smart and asked in advance.
“Of course I’m going to do it.”
!!
Mo Ruyue glanced at him disdainfully, thinking that this brat had improved. Now she knew why he had to think so much.
“Ah? You still want to do it?” San Bao asked in a daze.
Originally, he thought that the crowd would not disperse for a while. At that time, they would have a very strict sleep schedule. If he did not sleep when it was time to go to bed, he would be yelled at by his mother.
It was just that they didn’t expect that this time, mother would take them to watch the fun, and she still didn’t relax the supervision of the morning and evening classes. By then, would they have time to finish the evening homework before they went to bed?
“I’ve said it before, you must finish what you started and have strict self-discipline in order to achieve better results than expected. So remember, no matter what happens in the future, as long as it’s not like you can’t get out of bed, you can’t stop your homework. However, you can consider your time. ”
Mo Ruyue had made such a request in order to develop a good habit of self-discipline for her babies. No matter what they did, if they were to fish for three days and hang out the net for two days, then they could forget about getting any good results.
She picked up Tang Tang and quickly went out with the babies. She was afraid that if she, the main character, went late, this show would not be able to continue.
In the end, because of the delay, the new house was already surrounded by many people, but the door was closed, and they could not enter. At this time, it was quiet inside, as if the scream they had just heard was just an illusion.
“Everyone’s here?”
Mo Ruyue deliberately said something from behind, which attracted the surrounding villagers to turn around and look. They were shocked when they saw her.
“Hey, aren’t you from the Qin family? Why did you come from behind? You scared me to death!”
The villager closest to him turned around and was shocked to see that Mo Ruyue was not in the big house, but behind him. His heart almost jumped out of his throat.
“Well, the new furniture arrived today and the smell was too strong, so I thought I’d leave it for a day before moving in. I heard some movement here, so I came over to take a look. ”
Mo Ruyue saw that almost everyone turned their heads to look at him, so she casually said.
“Everyone came out to check because they heard the noise, right?”
“Yes, it’s a good thing that you and your babies are not in the new house. That scream just now was really scary! We were all afraid that something would happen to you and the children, so we came out to check on the situation. ”
One of the villagers took the initiative to reply, but his words were inevitably insincere.
The scream just now was clearly a man’s voice. A man’s voice coming out of a widow’s house in the middle of the night would inevitably make people’s imagination run wild.
He originally thought that he would catch the biggest scandal in the Qin village, but he didn’t expect that the Qin family’s eldest branch’s daughter-in-law didn’t even bring her child to live there. Then, there was only one explanation, someone had taken advantage of the night to break in.
Mo Ruyue placed Tang Tang into Da Bao’s arms. When she saw the crowd make way for her, she went straight to the door and prepared to open it with her key.
“Madam Qin, let us men do it. No matter how capable you are, you are still a woman. What if there’s really a thief?”
A man walked over and stopped Mo Ruyue. Although everyone was well aware that she knew martial arts, the deep-rooted concept of men being stronger than women was still deeply rooted in her heart. At this time, there were so many men here. If a woman was really allowed to walk in front and face danger, they would really feel embarrassed.
Mo Ruyue seemed to have thought of something. She stepped aside and passed the key to the man.
Someone lit a torch and came from behind. The man held the torch in one hand and was about to open the lock when he suddenly found that the lock was already open. The door was left ajar, but he didn’t notice it because it was dark.
“Eh? Did someone pick the lock?”
He seemed to be talking to Mo Ruyue, but he also seemed to be talking to himself. Then he brought the torch closer so that the people behind him could see that the door was not closed.
“Be careful. It seems that there’s truly a thief inside. Maybe he’s still hiding in the house. Don’t get hurt by him, and don’t let him run away!”
This time, everyone became nervous. Some rushed home to get their hoes and rakes, and some people went to get their guard dogs. The commotion was not trivial.
As the owner of the house, Mo Ruyue didn’t seem to panic at all. When she saw that the main door was ajar, she had already guessed who was inside the house.
However, she was happy to see everyone acting as if they were facing a great enemy. The more nervous and scared they were now, the more “surprise” they would be later.
The leading man saw several men with torches and hoes behind him and felt a lot more at ease. He calmed down and pushed the door open.
When country bumpkins built their houses, they didn’t pay attention to any shadow walls. As soon as they entered, they saw a large transparent courtyard. The light of the torch gradually shone inside, and soon, people could see that near the door of the main house, there was a figure curled up and squatting there, like a quail that had its head retracted.
“Who is it? Who’s there!”
The leader of the men scolded, and the curled-up figure shrank even tighter. He tried to hide himself and move into the shadows, but he seemed to be bound by something and stopped moving after taking one step.
Mo Ruyue also walked over from behind and pushed the torch forward. She deliberately said, “Why do these clothes look so familiar?”
Her words attracted the attention of the men. They took a closer look and said, “It does look familiar. Oh wait, why does this look like that of the Qin family’s second son?”
The villagers had to work in the fields and go hunting in the mountains, so they always wore coarse cloth, which was convenient and resistant to dirt.
The man who was curled up was wearing a long robe, and the material was not ordinary coarse cloth. In the village, only the second son of the Qin family, Qin Xu, would wear such a flamboyant outfit all day.
“Second Lord Qin? Is it you? Raise your head!”
Someone shouted and started to walk in that direction. The person who was curled up moved and slowly raised his face, revealing a familiar face under the torchlight.
It was indeed the second son of the Qin family, Qin Xu.
“Second Lord Qin, why are you not at home at this time of the night? Why did you come to the Qin family’s first branch’s house?”
Although everyone was surprised, they thought about it carefully and didn’t feel that this was unexpected.
“I… I drank too much and remembered the wrong way, so I walked here out of habit.”
Qin Xu was illuminated by a torch and surrounded by onlookers. When he spoke, he raised his arms to cover his face in an extremely unnatural way, as if to block the light.
“I don’t think second uncle is that drunk. There is no smell of alcohol on his body, and his words are not slurry at all. He explained the reason very clearly. But I’m curious, when we were handing over the house deeds and keys, you clearly said that you gave me all the keys, so how did you open the door and come in?”
How could Mo Ruyue let him get away with it so easily? She pointed out the key point of the matter with a few words, which made Qin Xu’s face immediately change.
