Half a month later, when Lu Xiufen saw Qiao Qiqi's face again, her gaze instantly turned extremely vicious.

Seeing Qiao Qiqi reach out to snatch the bundle from her arms, she immediately took two steps back and dodged Qiao Qiqi's hand.

He immediately started cursing: "You little slut, it's all your fault for causing your father to sever ties with me! If I had known you would do something so outrageous, I should have had your mother beat you when I found out you were a good-for-nothing!"

In that case, the original owner must have heard it countless times since childhood.

Lu Xiufen favored sons over daughters. When Lin Chunying first discovered she was pregnant with her, she took Lin Chunying to see an old Chinese medicine doctor to check her pulse. After learning that it was a girl, she wanted Lin Chunying to have an abortion.

But Qiao Weiguo and Lin Chunying disagreed no matter what. They felt that whether it was their daughter or their son, they were still their children, so they insisted on not hitting them.

Lu Xiufen was so angry that she made a scene at home several times. In the end, even when Lin Chunying was already pregnant and the time to abort the child had passed, she still wouldn't give up.

Having heard somewhere that even in the later stages of pregnancy, one could still miscarry if something unexpected happened, he deliberately ordered Lin Chunying to do all sorts of hard and tiring work, almost causing her to miscarry several times.

Fortunately, Qiao Qiqi was blessed with good fortune and survived, and was eventually born safely.

However, Lin Chunying developed a back pain problem.

Later, when she gave birth to Qiao Tianyou, she did not take proper care during her postpartum period, which left her with lifelong health problems.

Seeing that Lu Xiufen still had the nerve to bring this up, Qiao Qiqi was too lazy to argue with her and simply snatched the things back.

Upon opening the bag, she was furious to find that it contained the steamed cake and malted milk powder she had bought for Lin Chunying.

"How can you be so shameless? My parents have cut ties with you, and you still come back to steal! Aren't you afraid of choking on your own?"

When Lu Xiufen's belongings were snatched, she immediately charged forward, baring her teeth and claws, shouting, "Give me back my things! All these things are mine!"

"Yours? Can you swear on your life? If I bought these things, you'll kick the bucket and die right now tonight!"

"You...you actually dared to curse me!" Lu Xiufen rolled her eyes in anger.

Just when Qiao Qiqi thought she was about to faint from anger, her pupils shrunk again, and she plopped down on the ground and started howling.

"I don't want to live anymore! You unfilial children! I raised you with great difficulty, and you've forgotten your mother after having your own children! I've wasted my life giving birth to you!"

Qiao Qiqi looked down at the scene and saw that Lu Xiufen had suffered so many losses but still hadn't learned her lesson, so she sneered.

"Go ahead and shout. Even if you call everyone here, I'm not afraid! My parents and you have already signed a severance document in front of Captain Su. The whole village knows that you have nothing to do with our family anymore!"

Seeing that Lu Xiufen was still sitting on the ground wailing and ignoring her, Qiao Qiqi simply bent down and coldly warned, "So now that you're in my house and stealing my things, you're a thief, and I can call the police to arrest you right now!"

"..." Lu Xiufen's crying suddenly stopped.

Seeing that this old man deserved to be taught a lesson, Qiao Qiqi immediately straightened up and said, "I'll give you one minute to get out of my house right now, or I'll go to the police station to report you."

Lu Xiufen was furious, but there was nothing she could do.

Knowing that Qiao Qiqi was an ungrateful wretch, she simply looked at Lin Chunying, who had remained silent behind her, and said, "Look at this! This is the ungrateful wretch you gave birth to! Unfilial daughter! Are you just going to stand by and do nothing?"

Lin Chunying frowned slightly and subconsciously glanced in Qiao Qiqi's direction.

Meeting Qiao Qiqi's reassuring gaze, his heart immediately calmed down.

It wasn't that she didn't want to get involved; it was just that her daughter had warned her after severing ties that Lu Xiufen would definitely come and cause trouble in the future. If she did, she should go to her, and she would handle it. She was also told not to be soft-hearted, otherwise she would only give the other party the opportunity to take advantage of her.

Lin Chunying remained silent for the rest of the time.

But seeing Lu Xiufen looking at her, Lin Chunying finally softened, "Qiqi, how about..."

"Have you forgotten what I told you before?" Qiao Qiqi's face immediately turned cold.

"..." Lin Chunying saw that her daughter was angry and dared not say anything more.

She knew she was soft-hearted and couldn't stand soft words. Just now, Lu Xiufen had cried to her, saying that after she went to her older brother's house, her sister-in-law often didn't give her food. She had only been there for half a month, but she had already lost several pounds from hunger.

Lin Chunying felt sorry for her, seeing that she was old and helpless, and that she was quite pitiful.

Of course, she didn't just listen to Lu Xiufen's side of the story.

Ever since Lu Xiufen went to Qiao Guodong's house, the gossip in the village has never stopped.

Lin Chunying sits at home every day and doesn't go out much, yet she still hears all sorts of gossip.

I heard that after Lu Xiufen went there, Zhao Yuxiang scolded her every day and even hit her.

The yard was in constant chaos, causing great distress to the neighbors.

Thinking about all this, Lin Chunying was suddenly moved with compassion...

Qiao Qiqi also understood that Lin Chunying had been pliable for decades, and it would be difficult to change her immediately.

If it were anyone else, she would have ignored them long ago, but Lin Chunying was her mother and was genuinely good to her, so Qiao Qiqi could only patiently continue to guide her.

Thinking it over, she looked directly at Lu Xiufen and said, "As the saying goes, there's always a reason why someone is pitiful. You brought this upon yourself! Didn't you always think your uncle's family was good? Then you can stay at your eldest son's house until you die, and don't ever come out and cause trouble for others again!"

After infuriating Lu Xiufen, Qiao Qiqi looked at Lin Chunying and reminded her of what had happened in the past.

"Don't forget how this old lady treated you before. Have you already forgotten the pain after just a few days of comfort? And even if you don't think about yourself, think about Tianyou!"

"!" Lin Chunying was reminded and immediately thought of Lu Xiufen stealing the betrothal gifts.

In an instant, all my soft-heartedness vanished.

She immediately turned cold and said to Lu Xiufen, "You can leave now. Don't come back again. I won't give you anything more."

Lu Xiufen waited for a long time, and when she received this result, she instantly flew into a rage.

He jumped up from the ground and pointed at Lin Chunying's nose, cursing, "Let me tell you, I'm giving you a chance today. If you really don't take care of me in my old age, don't blame me for being ruthless! Leaders from Beijing are in the village. If you don't give it to me, I'll go and ask those leaders to reason with me and make sure Qiao Weiguo can't be the group leader!"

Good heavens!

Qiao Qiqi was inwardly exclaiming, "Wow!"

She's really seen something new today.

The biological mother used her son's job to threaten her daughter-in-law.

She had always thought she could only see such a scene in novels, but now she was witnessing it with her own eyes in real life!

What could she say?
