Chapter 1724 - 1719: Trampled for a Lifetime

"Who let you come? Hurry up and leave!" Mrs. Jin said, reaching out to push Mu Xiangxiang.

"I’m not leaving, I’m here for the spectacle! Why can they watch, but I can’t?" Mu Xiangxiang protested.

She had come to see her niece’s wedding, but before seeing it properly, she was chased away. If people found out, wouldn’t she be utterly humiliated?

"They are all normal, but you, a woman rejected by her husband’s family, have no face to enter this room!" Mrs. Jin said.

Old Mrs. Jin had just finished doing Mu Dandan’s hair.

She joined in as well.

"Xiangxiang, I’m an elder and have watched countless weddings. No one like you has ever come and immediately focused on the groom. This is taboo, don’t you know?" Old Mrs. Jin said.

Several people surrounded Mu Xiangxiang, so she decided to let everything go!

"Alright, since you’re all accusing me, I’ll be straightforward! If Dandan gets married like this, don’t expect things to go well; she’ll be sent back to me the next day!" Mu Xiangxiang said.

"Snap—" Mrs. Jin slapped Mu Xiangxiang across the face, making her head spin.

"You... you..." Mu Xiangxiang trembled with anger.

"Get out!"

Mu Shuangshuang stood nearby, watching Mrs. Jin and Old Mrs. Jin pointing at Mu Xiangxiang.

It felt like a farcical wedding feast, and she realized this was just the beginning!

"Mom... Mom..." Mu Xiangxiang screamed.

Upon hearing her, Grandma Xia, who was entertaining guests in the backyard, immediately came over.

Once inside, she went straight to Mu Xiangxiang and asked, "What’s going on? Xiangxiang, what’s wrong?"

"Mom, I can’t take it anymore. Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law slapped my face, look at my face, it’s all swollen!" Mu Xiangxiang loudly complained.

Mrs. Jin was infuriated.

She was preparing to expose Mu Xiangxiang when Old Mrs. Mu questioned her first.

"Why did you hit Xiangxiang? Mrs. Jin, are you insane? It’s one thing to bully others, but hitting Xiangxiang too?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Jin was like an enraged lion.

"I’m insane? You’re the one who’s blind, you old hag. How long have I endured this wench? Today is Dandan’s wedding, and she dares to say Dandan will be divorced! She... she simply deserves to die!" Mrs. Jin said.

Mu Xiangxiang was Old Mrs. Mu’s treasure, saying she deserved to die in front of her.

Isn’t that like slapping her in the face?

She swung her hand, about to hit Mrs. Jin.

While shouting, "You dare to oppose me, today I’m going to rid the Old Mu Family of this troublemaker!"

Old Mrs. Jin beside Mrs. Jin naturally went to pull her daughter.

This time, the slap landed on Old Mrs. Jin’s face.

Old Mrs. Jin was hit, Mrs. Jin went wild, rushing up to wrestle with Old Mrs. Mu.

But soon, Mrs. Jin was at a disadvantage, as Grandma Xia snatched several golden hairpins from her head.

Mu Xiangxiang also came over, taking advantage, picking up the ones that fell on the ground, directly putting them in her pocket, nearly going mad with joy.

"What are you doing?" Old Mrs. Jin said harshly.

"Why do you care? Treasure found on the ground belongs to whoever picked it up. I found it, so it’s mine! Hit her, mom, hit her dead, she slapped my face!" Mu Xiangxiang incited.

Mrs. Jin’s several sister-in-laws went to pull Old Mrs. Mu.

Also got scratched on the face by Old Mrs. Mu’s nails.

Seeing that on Mu Dandan’s wedding day, Mrs. Jin was about to be beaten ugly, Mu Yingying somehow found a vase, smashing it on Old Mrs. Mu’s back.

"Snap—"

The vase shattered, and Old Mrs. Mu’s back ached fiercely.

Mrs. Jin seized the chance, about to kick Grandma Xia.

At this time, Mu Shuangshuang said, "Fengzi, big cousin, hurry and pull my grandma away!"

Compared to Old Mrs. Mu, Mu Shuangshuang disliked Mrs. Jin more.

Old Mrs. Mu was bad, biased, but at least wouldn’t take someone’s whole family’s life!

At most, she would talk about small gains.

But Mrs. Jin, once she made a move, it would lead to a family’s ruin. She should have been taught a lesson long ago.

Old Mrs. Mu got pulled away, Mrs. Jin’s kick didn’t hit anyone.

But she had gone crazy, determined to fight Old Mrs. Mu to the death.

She arrived at Mu Shuangshuang, "Get out of my way, I want this old hag dead!"

Mrs. Jin shouted.

"Aunt, have you forgotten what day it is today? Outside, it’s full of relatives and friends, neighbors. If you make a scene today, how will Sister Dandan get married?" Mu Shuangshuang said.

She certainly wasn’t doing it for Mu Dandan.

She was merely preventing Old Mrs. Mu from being beaten by Mrs. Jin.

She was happy to see Old Mrs. Mu beat Mrs. Jin.

But she didn’t want to see Mrs. Jin beat Old Mrs. Mu.

"You..."

"I’m stating the facts. Right now, we’re all family! If others come in and see this mess, when it’s passed to the groom’s family, what would they think?

Would they consider the Old Mu Family as a burden?" Mu Shuangshuang said.

Her words quickly calmed down Mrs. Jin.

Indeed, the most important thing today wasn’t fighting, but her daughter’s marriage.

Later, the County Magistrate would come.

She had to stay and handle everything properly.

"Mom, continue helping Dandan get ready. This matter must stay undisturbed!" Mrs. Jin said.

With these words, she wouldn’t fight with Old Mrs. Mu anymore.

"Mu Xiangxiang, give me back all my golden hairpins!" Mrs. Jin said.

"I won’t!"

"This can’t be your choice. If you don’t give them back, I’ll have Da De find a match for you tomorrow, whether the person is old, ugly, crippled, or useless, I won’t be responsible!" Mrs. Jin said.

By now, Old Mrs. Mu had recovered from the pain, pointing at Mrs. Jin, "You... you dare!"

"You’ll see if I dare! Old hag, if you dare ruin Dandan’s wedding, I’ll have dad divorce you immediately! Then you’ll take this useless baggage and get lost together!"

After being cursed half her life as useless baggage, Mrs. Jin cursed back for the first time.

Even as useless baggage, she at least had a husband who was a scholar and a county magistrate.

She at least had a daughter marrying the son of the county steward.

Soon, her second daughter would marry a landlord, she had power and money!

Was she afraid of a dead old hag?

"You..." Old Mrs. Mu was indeed lacking a bit of arrogance.

She remembered Mr. Mu saying if she ruined Dandan’s wedding feast, he would divorce her, leaving her homeless.

In the end, Old Mrs. Mu compromised.

"Xiangxiang, give this stuff to that wench!" Old Mrs. Mu said.

"No... I like it, it’s mine, I won’t give it!" Mu Xiangxiang shook her head.

If it were usual, Old Mrs. Mu would surely refuse.

After all, these golden hairpins were worth quite a bit.

But now the occasion wasn’t suitable.

"Xiangxiang, listen to mom, don’t take these, mom will buy new ones for you!" Old Mrs. Mu said.

"No!" Mu Xiangxiang still refused.

Mrs. Jin rushed forward, forcibly snatching the golden hairpin from her hand.

Mockingly adding, "You, a divorced woman, won’t have a chance to rise again, Dandan will forever trample you underfoot!"
