Xue Mengyu knew the real reason for Qi Mingyu's divorce.

But that didn't stop her from pinning all of this on the Shen family.

"It's unbelievable! I've never seen a mother who still interferes in her son's affairs after he gets married."

"What's wrong? Is it because my father-in-law is no good that you're living like a widow and can't stand seeing others do well?"

Although she hadn't had any intimate contact with Qi Mingyu yet, Xue Mengyu had been watching from the sidelines last night and knew exactly what was going on.

So much so that she felt a strong urge to try it, and even thought that once the baby was settled, she would also experience it.

Therefore, Shen's words were a direct hit to her sore spot.

She is already married and will be the wife of an official in the future.

Naturally, they also hoped to win over Qi Mingyu's heart.

As for her former lovers, there's no need for that; she won't contact them again.

Even though she is pregnant, it's impossible for her to abstain from sex for almost a year.

But what this old woman is trying to say is that she should live the life of a widow.

How is that possible?

What did she want from getting married?

Paying money out of pocket for the empty title of an official's wife, only to remain a widow?

Bah, she's not going to live like that!

Therefore, she showed absolutely no mercy when she confronted people at this moment!

When was Shen treated like this after Qi Mingyu passed the imperial examination and became a scholar?

Hearing Xue Mengyu's words, she angrily pointed her finger at the other person and began to curse:

“You lowly merchant’s daughter, I am your mother-in-law, how dare you speak to me like that?”

Is this how your parents taught you?

Tomorrow you'll be going back to your parents' home, and I'll go with you.

I'd like to ask my in-laws myself, how does your Xue family raise their daughters?

Xue Mengyu was not afraid at all and replied directly:

"Sure, if you want to go, we can go together. It would be best if we went now."

I'd also like to ask, have any mothers-in-law ever blocked their daughters-in-law at the door the next day and told their sons and daughters-in-law to sleep in separate rooms?

What's wrong? Your family was broke before, so you were trying so hard to curry favor with me?

Now that I've married into your family, you think you can control me?

Bah! Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror to see how big your face is?

Old woman, let me tell you the truth.

Since you're so poor, and you'll have to rely on me for everything from food and drink to toileting, you'd better behave yourself.

Otherwise, if I'm unhappy, I might make sure you don't even get to eat.

With a sullen look on her face, she turned and went back to her room, slamming the door shut.

Still standing at the door, Madam Shen was so angry that she clutched her chest and couldn't utter a single word.

That bastard is far too arrogant.

She is her mother-in-law, an elder, and she dares to treat her like this. Isn't she afraid that people will say she is unfilial?

Aren't they afraid that everyone's spitting at her will drown her?

Enraged to the point of seeing black spots, Shen stood at the door for a long time.

She was unwilling to be treated this way and wanted to know what was happening to her son.

Immediately, they saw the door and started banging on it.

"Second brother, second brother, come out here."

"Your mother is being bullied to death, come out here right now!"

With a composed expression, Xue Mengyu returned to her room and sat back down on the edge of the bed.

Seeing that the person on the bed was not moving, he reached out and nudged them.

After waiting for a moment when there was still no movement, I reached out and touched his nostril.

They breathed a sigh of relief when they found that the baby was breathing.

For some reason, she inexplicably thought of what Shen had said earlier.

She said that Qi Mingyu was a scholar and not in good health.

Could it be that she drugged him too much last night?
