Chapter 2306: This Punishment Is Actually Considered Light

“I really didn’t expect you to be so insensible. In the past, I turned a blind eye to your nonsense. I kept thinking that since you didn’t cause too much trouble, I couldn’t be bothered to bother about you. It seems like I was too lax with you previously that now you do things more and more overboard.

“You’re ridiculously wrong this time.”

“Mom, I…” Madam Mo wasn’t willing to admit her mistake.

Before she could finish, Old Madam interrupted her angrily. “Shut up, what else do you have to say? I’ve tolerated you so many times, I won’t tolerate you anymore.”

Madam Mo’s expression changed.

Mo Yunchen’s expression changed as well. He quickly tried to defend his wife. “Mom—”

“Shut up.” Old Madam was angry now, and her own son wasn’t good at it. “You’re responsible for her current state. If you hadn’t protected and indulged her, would she have become like this?

“I told you long ago that women can be pampered, but not too much. As long as you listen to a few words, Shangguan Wenpei won’t rely on your love to do things more and more fearlessly.”

Mo Yunchen’s face turned pale.

He didn’t dare to retort.

Old Madam continued to scold him angrily. “You can’t afford to continue to pamper her. If you do, you’ll be harming her. Your wife is yours, and you’re the one who pampered her. Now that this happened, you can’t escape the responsibility.

“Take your wife back to your room and reflect on yourself. Come out when she realizes her mistake. If she doesn’t, then stay in the room and never come out again.”

Madam Mo wasn’t convinced.

She yelled, “Mom, this isn’t fair. Everything I did was for s.h.i.+xiu and the Mo family’s sake. Why don’t you punish Jiang Luoli but me?

“You’re biased.”

The Old Madam looked at her coldly. “You almost made a huge mistake. If I don’t punish you, I don’t know what else you’ll do next time. I think you’re just too agitated and can’t calm down. I’ll get Uncle Zhang to give you a Buddhist scripture later. You’ll reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors for the time being and copy it for me.”

“What?” Madam Mo widened her eyes.

Old Madam continued, “Copy it for now. If you still don’t realize your mistake, then copy a few more times. Alright, go back to your room. I don’t want to see you now.”

This punishment was already considered light.

But Madam Mo still couldn’t accept it.

She was the mistress of the house.

Now, she was being punished in front of so many servants.

If she accepted her punishment, she wouldn’t have the face to stay in this house anymore.

Moreover, if she did, Jiang Luoli would be so smug.

She couldn’t lose face in front of this vixen.

Madam Mo stood still and pointed at Jiang Luoli. “What about her? Since she has done something wrong, how do you plan to punish her?”

“This has nothing to do with you,” Old Madam said angrily. “I told you to go back to your room and reflect, did you hear me? Is it because my words are useless now?”
