Do Not Offend the Reborn Wicked Wife-Chapter 449: What Has Passed Must Pass

"Third Brother, how can you be so heartless? You dare to do it but won’t admit it?"

Mrs. Li Zhou was furious when she heard Li Qingmu firmly deny, her voice became sharp and her face twisted with anger.

"Heartless?" Li Qingmu sneered, "Yes, I’ve been heartless, so next I’ll think of ways to torment you all."

As he said this, his expression was somewhat fierce, and the Li Family members looked even more troubled.

Originally, they wanted to use morality to corner him, but he didn’t play by the rules. Now, they’ve got themselves into a bind.

"Third Brother, to be fair we were indeed forced, someone threatened our lives, we had no choice."

Old Li came out with a dry smoke pipe, took a puff and blew out a smoke ring, "Even though we’ve divided the family, you were raised by the Li family, so how could we really harm you?"

Li Qingmu looked at him, his gaze filled with sarcasm.

Forced? Threatened with life?

Huanhuan and Xiao Liu were manipulated and died, if you were truly forced, would you be alive now?

Do you really take him for a fool?

Li Qingmu continued to watch them with a cold gaze.

Old Li saw he wouldn’t budge, so he spread his hands: "Fine, do as you like then!"

This was a plan of no return.

Li Qingmu glanced at him indifferently, then said: "Making false reports, slandering loyal people, naturally, there’s national law to deal with it. Soon, someone will bring you to the prison for questioning!"

He’s directly using the law to deal with them!

Mrs. Li Zhou’s face changed, she scolded harshly: "Li Qingmu, we are your parents, parents in this world are never wrong. Sending your parents to prison, you little beast, are you trying to destroy humanity?"

Li Qingmu frowned, previously in the Golden Hall, Mrs. Li Zhou claimed he was her biological son, and the matter was known to the entire court.

Even though the Qingshui Village massacre was overturned, proving it unrelated to him, those from the Li family who falsified evidence were never held accountable.

The main reason was still that they were Li Qingmu’s parents, at least nominally.

No matter if Li Qingmu was their biological child or not, he had to bear the burden of filial piety, making it truly difficult to deal with this family.

This was also the reason why Qi Yun, when he ordered Cao Yin to conduct a grand cleansing, didn’t touch the Li family.

Even though the Li family were wrong in countless ways, after all, they raised him, made him grow up, educated him, taught him literacy and understanding.

Just for that, their crimes could be overlooked.

So, the Li family members were selectively ignored by Qi Yun and Li Qingmu.

"Mrs. Li Zhou, don’t use filial piety to pressure people. A Mu and I have ways to deal with you, making you die without a trace!"

Long Yue stepped forward coldly, these Li family members were truly disgusting, just like a maggot, making people want to vomit upon seeing them!

The key is, they consider raising Li Qingmu, a kindness greater than heaven, thus acting recklessly.

It’s so infuriating!

"Hey, third brother’s wife, what are you talking about? Do you have any conscience... Ah, ah, ouch, don’t, don’t come over!"

Long Yue couldn’t stand Mrs. Li Zhou’s pretentiousness, upon hearing she picked up a stool nearby and threw it at her.

Despite being more than four months pregnant, Long Yue was still quite nimble, chasing Mrs. Li Zhou who dared not resist.

The room was filled with chaos once more.

"Yue’er, let’s go!"

Li Qingmu worried about Long Yue’s health, afraid her anger might harm her, he grabbed her and whispered.

Long Yue said: "Just let them get away with this? I’m not willing!"

Li Qingmu smiled lightly: "What’s there to be unwilling about? Bad people will be dealt with by heaven, haven’t they been unlucky this time?"

Li Xiangxiang and Li Qingxue’s disappearance can indeed be seen as bad luck.

"Hey, why are you saying such things? What did Xiao Xue and Xiangxiang do to offend you two that you’d curse them like this?"

"Exactly, my Xiangxiang even learned embroidery from you before, there was the master-apprentice relationship. Now that they are missing, you still say such things, it’s utterly heartless!"

"..."

Mrs. Li Zhou and Mrs. Wang spoke one after another, making Long Yue look terrible, Long Yue waved her fist at them, and the two immediately shut up.

"Needs a good beating!" Long Yue glanced at them sideways, concluded, "Let’s go!"

Dealing with this family, even saying one word to them, she found sickening!

"Hey, hey!"

Mrs. Li Zhou saw Long Yue was leaving, and thought she drove her away with her words, she immediately became complacent, putting her hands on her hips and spat in the direction they were leaving.

The expression was extremely proud!

"Mother, I really don’t understand, what are you doing? I said we shouldn’t falsely accuse them back then!"

Li Qingqiu came out of the study, looking at the chaotic state of the room, he frowned.

He had grown up now, becoming a graceful young man, but with the maturity, he lost the innocence from before, gradually seeing things differently.

Before, when he heard Mrs. Li Zhou wanted to harm Long Yue, he would struggle fiercely, fight regardless of the consequences. But now it’s different, he knew about framing Long Yue and her husband, at the time he just tried to dissuade briefly, then let it be.

"You dead child, wasn’t it for you? If not to make something of you, by attaching to those influential families, wouldn’t you be able to become an official in the future? Now instead, you blame us, you ungrateful child, I’ll beat you to death!"

"Mother, what are you doing? I’m an adult now, don’t hit!"

"Bang bang..."

As Long Yue and Li Qingmu left, they could still hear the noisy commotion from the courtyard over there.

"Over time, people change."

When Li Qingmu walked out of the Li family, he said these words, Long Yue understood why he said it.

Years ago, he and the fourth, Li Qingqiu, were the closest, but this time entering, A qiu never showed up.

The bond between him and A qiu was completely gone.

Long Yue looked at her husband, his expression was calm, yet beneath that calmness, there was a trace of loneliness.

He was decisive and ruthless, a person who was fierce to enemies, fiercer to himself, yet he also cared deeply about emotions.

He never went against the Li family not because of so-called morals and filial piety, but because of the bond with A qiu, absurdly the Li family thought they were smart, believing filial piety binding him, preventing him from doing anything to them.

"A Mu, what’s gone is gone, don’t be sad!"

Long Yue comforted him, Li Qingmu merely smiled faintly: "I’m not sad, on the contrary, I feel much more at ease. Previously it felt like there was a mountain pressing down on me, and this time, after visiting the Li family, I feel that mountain has disappeared, my whole body is light."

Pausing for a moment, Li Qingmu reached out to hold Long Yue’s hand, "Let’s go, let’s head to Jinming Lake to watch the dragon boat race!"

At this moment, the dragon boat race was held in full swing, going to watch it would be perfect!

They returned to the lake side by side, only to find Ning Xiang hurriedly looking for something alone, Long Yue’s heart sank, she hurried to inquire.

Ning Xiang saw Long Yue arrived, feeling relieved, said: "My lord, Madam, you’er has gone missing!"
