Xiao Jingchuan was speechless at his father's behavior. His father was too filial in his previous life, which is why he was completely controlled by the old poisonous woman. The most pitiful thing was that he never knew until his death that the old poisonous woman was not his biological mother.

Just as her father-in-law was about to speak, Shen Yunsheng interrupted him with a smile, "Father, if you can ensure that the old lady doesn't cause trouble, we promise not to talk back."

Xiao Wenjing snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, "Your grandmother is an elder, you should just give in to her, do you expect her to give in to you?"

Shen Yunsheng was speechless. Filial piety is a traditional virtue, but blind obedience is ridiculous.

“Father, since you can’t make a guarantee, I won’t indulge the old lady.”

Before his wife could finish speaking, Xiao Jingchuan chimed in, "Dad, I don't object to you being filial to Grandma, but you need to be mindful of your limits and not give in to her in everything."

Xiao Wenjing snorted again. He felt that his son had changed. Other people forget their mothers after getting a wife, but he forgot his father after getting a wife.

Seeing his father's resolute attitude, Xiao Jingchuan stopped discussing Granny Yang with him and returned to the scaffolding to continue building the wall.

Shen Yunsheng didn't want to pay any attention to her father-in-law. After handing the bricks in the dustpan to Xiao Jingchuan, she went to help her husband.

In less than three days, the partition wall and kitchen were completed. To prevent Granny Yang from taking things without permission, Xiao Jingchuan also installed a door on the partition wall.

The 10th day of the 5th month of the 63rd year of Taihe (7:45 AM)

As soon as Shen Yunsheng and his wife stepped out of their room, they saw Li Hongyu's mother, Xiang Shi, arrive at their home.

Upon seeing Shen Yunsheng, she rushed over as if she had seen a savior, grabbed his sleeve, and said breathlessly, "Yunsheng, something terrible has happened! People from the Huang family have come. They not only want to break off the engagement, but they also want us to pay a penalty for breach of contract!"

Shen Yunsheng frowned, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart. This Huang family was going too far! They were the ones who broke off the engagement first, and now they dared to demand compensation?
