Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 117 Part 3: Public Sentiment

What must not be? Ye Ming Yu could not stand this kind of person in his eyes the most. He spoke unhappily, What must not be? Come and say! I think, at that time when County Deputy Xue helped you to stay in Tongxiang and let you enter the county school to study, let you take the county imperial exam, why didnt you say must not? If it were not for County Deputy Xue, now you will not even have the money to buy beancurd. What are you going to use to support your mother!

Mo Wen Xuan was not someone from Tongxiang. Many years ago, he brought his blind mother to Tongxiang to seek shelter with a relative. Who would have thought that the distant relative had passed away. Mo Wen Xuan was penniless, in addition, he was an outsider, he was almost reduced to begging in order to live. If it were not for Xue Huai Yuan who met him by chance on the street, he would have been deceived by a group of gangsters. Xue Huai Yuan extended his hand and found out about his situations. Knowing that Mo Wen Xuan wholeheartedly wanted to study, he let him enter the county school. Afterwards, theres the part where Mo Wen Xuan passed the county exam. Although he lived in poverty at the moment, if it were not due to Xue Huai Yuans assistance at that time, Mo Wen Xuan would perhaps have starved to death earlier. How could he still support his mother?

Its all bad guys. Most ungrateful people are all scholars. I can be said to have gained first-hand knowledge today! Ye Ming Yu shouted hatefully. If County Deputy Xue knew that the person he helped at the time was an ingrate, he should not have reached his hand out and pulled you up. He ought to just let you be bullied to death by those gangsters!

Mo Wen Xuan heard him and was in a daze. His complexion suddenly turned red in anger and he said, Enough, shut up! Do you think I am not willing to rehabilitate County Deputy Xue? Do you think I dont know that Master Xue was accused wrongly? Benevolence, righteousness, loyalty and filial piety, I read all those aloud when I was studying! But Feng Yu Tang is really not a thing! Do you know how he treated those who wanted to help Master Xue before? He harmed the persons parents, wife and children! Although I, Mo Wen Xuan, cannot be counted as a hero, its just a life, theres nothing to be afraid of, I just want to be able to repay the benefactor! But I still have my mother. My mother has painstakingly brought me up, now shes blind and can no longer do things. In my entire life, I never could let her live comfortably, but I cannot put her in danger because of me!

Mo Wen Xuan finished talking, his chest moved up and down fiercely. He probably never quarreled with someone like this before, even his neck turned red and the veins on his forehead emerged due to excitement.

Ye Ming Yu looked at him, his anger disappeared a bit. However, he still hated that he did not live up to expectations. He only said, You are not willing to put your mother in danger because of you, but are you willing to let your mother be humiliated because of you? You dont know, by doing this, if your mother knows, how disappointed will she be? You are such a son, let her unable to lift her head up. Its a hundred times more lowly than being in poverty and powerless!

You! Mo Wen Xuan was left speechless.

Right at this moment, a faltering voice sounded, Wen Xuan.

The two people turned around to look. They did not know since when, Mo Wen Xuans mother, the blind old woman, was coming over step by step while groping and leaning on her walking stick. Perhaps she heard the two peoples dispute and finally could not help coming over. Its obvious that their quarrel just now had been heard by the old woman.

The old woman asked, Wen Xuan, is what this little brother said true, County Deputy Xue was really sent to prison?

Mo Wen Xuan mumbled and did not come up with an answer. The old lady was blind and could not go outside. She did not know the great change that occurred in Tongxiang earlier. He also did not tell his mother, because knowing his mothers temperament, if she was aware of this, she would definitely speak up for County Deputy Xue.

But he did not want to see his own mother in danger.

Wen Xuan. The old womans voice turned solemn.

Its true. Mo Wen Xuan replied helplessly. Its been half a year, Master Xue was greedy and corrupted the disaster relief silver and was put in jail. Soon he will be sentenced!

A bunch of nonsense! The old lady abruptly put out her walking stick and ferociously hit it on the ground, clearly showing her anger. She said, What kind of person County Deputy Xue is, all the people in Tongxiang know. Withou County Deputy Xue, the present Tongxiang will not be like this. Wen Xuan, quickly follow this little brother to say, you are willing to be a witness. A person must not forget ones roots, if we dont stand up, whats the difference between us and those villains? This is helping the tyrants in his oppression!

But mother..

I know the fear in your heart. Ive lived for so long, its enough. Im not afraid to die! If you are not afraid of death, stand up. If theres someone who wants to harm you, mother will accompany you to take responsibility. For so many years, we, the mother and son, have endured things together. Whats to be afraid of dying together? As a person, the most important thing is to have integrity. If you are afraid of death, find a place to hide, I will go out with this little brother to testify and will not implicate you!

Mother, what are you talking about? How can this son let you be in danger alone? Mo Wen Xuan stamped his feet anxiously. He looked at Ye Ming Yu and spoke firmly with resolve. This brother, you better find a place to hide my mother away, Ill testify with you. What my mother said was right, a person must not forget his roots. Feng Yu Tang is such a scoundrel, sooner or later he will go to hell. How about this time, I will be the person who sends him to hell?

Originally, Ye Ming Yu was ready to give up. This scholar called Mo Wen Xuan, afraid of the slightest thing and he was most impatient when he came into contact with scholars. Perhaps Jiang Li could still persuade tactfully, but he really could not waste time. Moreover, the help given by Xue Huai Yuan for them had been said, yet they remained unmoved, then theres really nothing he could do. Who would have known in the final moment, the wind would turn and Mo Wen Xuan jumped out, changing Mo Wen Xuans decision.

Ye Ming Yu looked at the mother and son, and suddenly felt deeply moved. He was young and vigorous, his courage had been pretty big since he was young. Handling things looking at the head in spite of the tail. However, many people had family members, theres restrain, courage was not as simple as just standing up. No wonder Jiang Li said that the last step was the most difficult. Because it was hard to fathom a persons mind, there were also a lot of shackles.

Finally, theres a person who was willing to stand up, right?

568 households, with one household standing up, there certainly would be a second one, third one.. Theres evil in human nature, but theres also virtue.
