The visitor was Mao Fangfei's sister-in-law, a shrewd and capable lawyer, and the only person in the family who supported Mao Fangfei.

Mao Fangfei felt a warmth in her heart and looked at her sister-in-law with gratitude. She wasn't usually close to her sister-in-law, but she had a good relationship with her second sister-in-law, who was also a teacher. However, she never expected that it would be her sister-in-law who would support her in the end.

"Don't make things worse. I just advised Feifei." Mao's mother looked at her eldest daughter-in-law with displeasure.

Of her two daughters-in-law, she preferred the gentle and considerate younger one. She didn't quite approve of the fiery older one, but she was an open-minded mother-in-law. As long as the young couple had a good relationship, that was fine, since they didn't live together anyway.

But now she won't allow her eldest daughter-in-law to incite her youngest daughter; what kind of behavior would that be if it caused a scene?

Sister-in-law Mao patiently persuaded, "Mom, Feifei is being treated like dirt by the Mao family. How can she tolerate this? Do you know how outrageous that bastard surnamed Ruan is? He hasn't given Feifei a single penny since they got married. He saves all the money he earns in his own account, which is in his parents' names. The property rights of that house in Yinhu Villa are also in his parents' names. And that's all."

What's most infuriating is that this bastard actually owes 500,000 yuan in debt, half of which Feifei is supposed to cover—she has to contribute 250,000 yuan. Tell me, isn't this family going too far?!

Mao's mother's expression changed slightly. She was not very clear about the inside story and did not expect that there was a debt of 250,000 yuan. Her and her husband's savings combined did not even amount to 100,000 yuan. How could they repay this debt?

Mao Fangfei looked at her sister-in-law suspiciously. It was clearly only a debt of 300,000 yuan, so why did her sister-in-law say it was 500,000 yuan?

Sister-in-law Mao gave her a wink, and Mao Fangfei fell silent. In any case, she had made up her mind to fight Ruan Lizong to the end. She would not pay a single penny of this debt, nor would she give up a single penny of the property.

"Mom, Feifei doesn't even have 10,000 yuan in savings. How is she going to pay off this 250,000 yuan debt? Our whole family can't even scrape together that much money!"

Sister-in-law Mao's words made Mother Mao's face even uglier.

She really couldn't come up with 250,000 yuan; her son-in-law was really going too far.

“But the Ruan family are all unreasonable. They will definitely come to make trouble. Your father and I both live at the school. It would be so ugly if they made a scene,” said Mao’s mother, explaining her reason for objecting.

Mao Fangfei felt a chill in her heart, glanced at her mother, and felt a coldness creep down her back.

She used to think that her parents loved her very much because she was their youngest daughter and had everything she wanted since she was a child, just like a little princess. But now, her mother's words only made her feel cold.

Is her happiness less important than saving face?

Sister-in-law Mao's eyes held a hint of sarcasm, and she felt great sympathy for her sister-in-law. Her sister-in-law had been taught to be foolish by her parents-in-law, no wonder she was completely controlled by the Ruan family.

Married for five or six years, she was completely unaware of the family's finances. She was so stupid that she didn't object to her husband handing over a single penny, and she didn't save a single penny of her own money. Haha... If she were a man, he would want to take advantage of her too!

"Mom, is Feifei's happiness more important, or her reputation? Do you want to see Feifei suffer for the rest of her life?" Sister-in-law Mao said without any mercy.

She knew her in-laws didn't like her, but she wasn't afraid.

Her income is several times higher than her husband's, who is a teacher, and she is the breadwinner of the family. She has plenty of confidence and nothing to be afraid of.

Mao's mother's expression changed again, she looked a little embarrassed, and her dislike for her eldest daughter-in-law deepened. She was supposed to be a lawyer, but she didn't know how to speak properly.
