In a fit of anger, Madam Ruan beat Huang Cuihua half to death.
The household couldn't afford any more trouble like this. With Mo Daoyan's help, Huang Cuihua managed to escape alive and dared not linger at the old residence, fleeing to the town overnight.
Old Master Mo's funeral was very simple. Mo Xiaoqiang found dozens of taels of silver in his room, went to town to buy a thin coffin, and just like that, placed the body inside and carried it directly up the mountain for burial.
Because it was taboo that he was killed, and he died wearing a bright red robe, there was a legend that if someone dies wearing bright red, they would turn into a malevolent ghost, very fierce. Therefore, even fewer people attended the burial.
On the third night after Old Master's burial, a raging fire suddenly broke out in the old residence, illuminating the entire Mo Family Village. The fire burned until dawn before it slowly extinguished.
