From Folly to Fortune：I Rewrite My Life After Rebirth!-Chapter 1046 - 1042: Layered Shoe Sole Strikes

Mu Danian put all the responsibility on Hu Sheng, thinking that by doing so, he could escape the disaster himself.

However, he underestimated Mu Shuangshuang. Since she came, she would never let Mu Danian get away easily.

"Uncle Wu, whether Hu Sheng is the mastermind or not, we still have to report to the government and let them call Hu Sheng to confront him, then we’ll know," Mu Shuangshuang raised her eyebrows, a faint smile on her lips.

"What? Report to the government? You stinky girl, shut up! Are you trying to kill me?" Mu Danian cursed loudly.

In his agitation, he didn’t even cover his face, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to rush up and trouble Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang didn’t retreat at all, facing Mu Danian directly.

"Uncle Wu, it was you who stole, even if you go to the government, it was your own doing, what does it have to do with me? It’s not like I have to clean up the mess for you, is it?"

"You..." Mu Danian was so angry that his mouth twisted.

Mr. Mu was even more stunned, not knowing how to handle the situation because it was entirely beyond his control.

But one thing was certain, his son stealing, and stealing from the villagers, was an undeniable fact.

If the villagers found out about this, not only would the Old Mu Family’s face be lost, but even the eldest’s career might also be affected.

But if Fifth’s matters were suppressed, Huang Bita’s issue would have to be settled as well.

Once again, Mr. Mu found himself in a dilemma.

Regarding Huang Bita’s issue, Mr. Mu still believed in his son Mu Danian.

Even if Mu Danian was full of bad habits and did all sorts of bad things.

This matter left Mr. Mu no choice but to believe, stealing and having improper intentions towards his niece-in-law, which one was lighter or heavier was clear to Mr. Mu without even thinking.

"Dad, I actually didn’t want to talk about Huang Bita’s sordid affairs, but Da Lang forced me. Whatever you decide, I’ll comply without making any extra remarks." Mu Danian said to Mr. Mu.

"Mu Danian, has your conscience been eaten by dogs? What did Bita ever do to you? On what grounds do you ruin her reputation?"

Mu Dalang suddenly rushed up and punched Mu Danian.

He hit and cursed at the same time.

Mu Danian was punched into a daze, not having time to react before being hit again.

Mu Shuangshuang watched from the side, cheering for Mu Dalang in her heart!

Mr. Mu’s face was as black as a pot bottom.

Twice, his grandson hit his son twice right in front of him.

"Da Lang, stop it! I’m not dead yet, this family is not up to you!"

Mr. Mu shouted, but Mu Dalang, like he had gone mad, held onto Mu Danian’s clothes, refusing to let go.

Mu Danian cried out in pain, and even Old Mrs. Mu felt the pain watching him, rushing forward.

Just as she was about to slap Mu Dalang in the face, Mu Shuangshuang grabbed her wrist, pulling her back several meters.

Not only that, Mu Shuangshuang even took off the shoe at Old Mrs. Mu’s feet.

She threw it to Mu Dalang.

"Big cousin, use Grandma’s shoe and hit him hard, make him regret, make him feel the pain!"

Mu Dalang’s eyes were bloodshot as he took the shoe sole Mu Shuangshuang handed him.

He started hitting recklessly on Mu Danian’s body.

Old Mrs. Mu’s shoe was no easy matter. Usually, others in the Old Mu Family only had one layer of soles, but hers had two or three layers.

This made the shoes much sturdier, and most importantly, they hurt a lot when hitting someone.

With the rhythmic sound of the beating, coupled with Mu Danian’s pleas for mercy, the atmosphere in the Old Mu Family reached incredible heights.

Mr. Mu shouted beside Mu Dalang, telling him to stop, to no avail.

The shoe in hand, Mu Dalang feared no one.

He grabbed Mu Danian and beat him for the time it takes to drink two pots of tea. By the time he stopped, Mu Danian’s body was already covered in blood marks.

His voice became hoarse from shouting, and he uttered all sorts of pleas.

Eventually, Mu Danian completely lost track of where he was.

He only knew pain—

A burning, searing pain all over. When Mu Dalang stopped, Mu Danian had already lost feeling.

After venting his anger, Mu Dalang finally felt better.

He returned the shoe to Old Mrs. Mu, saying, "Grandma, this was all my idea, it has nothing to do with Shuangshuang. If you want to blame someone, blame me!"

Old Mrs. Mu was still furious, gaining new anger.

"You beast, there’s no escaping for her, nor for you, and I won’t spare that harlot of yours either." She said, jumping with anger.

Mu Dalang knew that this wouldn’t end today, so he broke down and let it all out.

"Fine, then tell the whole village about it. I’ll also let them know about Mu Danian’s deeds, anyway, the Old Mu Family’s face is already lost.

At worst, Bita and I will leave far away. As for how the Old Mu Family will be cursed, I don’t care anymore!"

Having said that, Mu Dalang rushed out of the Old Mu Family.

Returning to Tie Dao Village.

As for Mu Shuangshuang, having watched the drama, she was also ready to leave.

But before leaving, she still had to remind Mr. Mu: "Grandpa, even if you are biased, there should be a limit. My uncle lies habitually, throwing dirt on my cousin-in-law to save himself.

The purpose is just to clear his own name, right? If you really think my cousin-in-law would do something disgraceful, then go find the village chief and have her drowned in a pig cage.

But as for the outcome, I don’t need to tell you. In short, the choice is yours. You’re the head of the family, whatever you decide is how it will be handled!"

With those words, Mu Shuangshuang swaggered out of the Old Mu Family, as arrogant as can be.

Almost making Old Mrs. Mu so angry she couldn’t breathe.

In the main hall, she raged and cursed for a whole hour before stopping.

In the end, Mr. Mu chose to compromise.

The son was beaten, and it was over, not to be pursued.

No one was allowed to mention Huang Bita’s matter again, and as for Mu Dalang, having split from the family, Mr. Mu was too lazy to reprimand him.

That concluded it.

However, this time Mu Danian had truly suffered a huge setback. The shoe beatings left untreated, and by nightfall, he developed a high fever, had Zhang Huai Shu called, spent money on treatment, nearly costing him half his life.

By the time he recovered, it was already early May. Just days away from Mu Xiangxiang’s wedding.

The Old Mu Family finally shook off the previous gloom, focusing all their attention on Mu Xiangxiang.

The Old Mu Family bustled with activity, replacing furniture, tiling the roofs, as if they were not marrying off a daughter, but rather welcoming a bride.

The villagers talked, thinking the Old Mu Family was out of their minds.

Instead of spending money to marry off an unmarried son, they lavishly wasted money on a worthless girl.

But even amidst the gossip, Old Mrs. Mu persisted in spending all the money on Mu Xiangxiang.
