The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1240 - 285: Grand Finale Part 1_6

As the rumors fermented to their peak, an elder came forward to expose that the Zhen family lineage all had twelve-month gestations, conceiving over a year before birth.

When Mo Heng’s mother, Lady Zhen, gave birth to him, she was also pregnant for twelve months exactly.

It was after Pei Qin bewitched Mo Heng that she became pregnant with a child, and only then did Mo Heng marry her! With her looks, she wasn’t remotely a match for the stunningly handsome Mo Heng, who looked like a Celestial God!

After Lady Zhen’s death, the Zhen family’s lineage dwindled, and they moved away, some say overseas. But there were still those who had served at the Zhen family, confirming that the Zhen family’s descendants were all born after twelve months of pregnancy.

And Pei Qin’s pregnancy with Jiujiu? Exactly twelve months. She hadn’t consulted a doctor, but there was a midwife present at the childbirth. The newborn child’s descriptions matched exactly the symptoms the Zhen family’s children had at birth.

But Xixi didn’t resemble Mo Heng at all; it was more like she had a ten-month pregnancy. Shen Songming had always been dividing money for Pei Qin, shares from the crystal mine, and some properties were even in Pei Qin’s name—never marrying, all because he was bewitched by this demoness! Because Xixi was the result of Pei Qin’s adulterous affair with Shen Songming!

Such accusations meant that as long as Pei Qin, Mo Heng—or anyone—came forward to say Xixi was also born after twelve months, it would be like admitting Jiujiu was conceived out of wedlock!

In a moment, Pei Qin’s reputation plummeted to rock bottom.

A group of outraged and indignant people ran to the outside of Tiance Mansion, demanding Pei Qin come out and explain, "Without a proper explanation, you don’t deserve everyone’s reverence! The Deity General Temple wasn’t built for nothing!"

Everyone at home was holding Pei Qin back, not letting her go out.

Pei Qin reached out her hand to Mo Heng.

Mo Heng extended his hand to hers, and without a word being spoken between them, they then walked out together. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"Big sister!?" Pei Qian reached out; those people were insane! Stirred into madness!

Pei Qin came out fearlessly, "What explanation do you want? I will explain it to you!"

The crowd that was angry and provoked took a step back seeing her come forward; then someone took the lead, "Are you a demoness?"

"No!" Pei Qin denied emphatically. She was a live human being! To hell with being a demoness!

"Then where did you learn about firearms and explosives!? Where did you learn those scribblings!?" Someone else interrogated.

Pei Qin looked at them coldly, "Out of chaos naturally come heroes! You ask me where I learned about firearms and explosives; why don’t you ask me why I fought against Wa Ci, battled the Rong Clan!?"

Her question left them momentarily speechless. However, not everyone was convinced, "You can speak the Rong Clan language! You recognize the scribblings! If you’re not a demoness, then what are you?"

Pei Qin gave a cold snort of laughter, "Well, I’ll tell you, not only can I speak the Rong Clan’s northern dialect, I can speak the language of Japan, of Korea! Beyond the grasslands and deserts, there lies another land, inhabited by a race of people with white skin, blue eyes, and blond hair! I can speak their language too! That’s what you call scribblings! I can even cross the ocean, where a completely black-skinned race lives! I can speak their language as well!"

Seeing those people didn’t believe her, Pei Qin had long run out of patience with these fools! She directly cursed at them in English.

Those interrogating her were frightened by her strange outburst; their expressions changed, and they backed away, "She’s chanting curses! She’s chanting curses!"

Pei Qin angrily cursed, "Baka."

Immediately, some people were so scared that they turned and ran away.

"Anything else you would like to ask?" Mo Heng surveyed the crowd with an icy demeanor, "Are you asking whether my wife and I had an affair before marriage? Whether my daughter is an illegitimate child? How many months did my children take to develop? Whether I was bewitched by a demoness to marry a wife whom you think is too ugly to match me?"

No one spoke out, but these were the questions they wanted answers to. Pei Qin, she can chant curses, she must really be a demoness!

Yet, all these matters were their family’s private affairs.

"Why don’t you ask who told you these things? Why not ask about the reason the Mo family banished me from the family years ago!?" Mo Heng demanded loudly.

Over a decade ago, the Mo family had inexplicably banished their genius child prodigy, the young scholar, from the clan—a mystery all of the capital wanted to solve!

What reason could the Mo family have to banish such a member from their family!?

Why would Mo Dun, blessed with such a son, have the heart to drive him out of the family?

Among them, some knew Mo Heng had been blinded. Even more so, they desired to probe into what Mo Heng had done to be expelled by the Mo family!

Someone took the lead and ran off, "He’s already been captivated by a demoness! We must run!"
