I watched him go from talking to taking action.
My sister-in-law was so anxious that beads of sweat were dripping from her forehead.
It's not just Xiaotang who is helping out.
Sisters-in-law see each other every day, and the intensified conflicts are not good for anyone.
Let her stand on Meimei's side.
But given Meimei's recent aggressive words and actions, she really couldn't do anything against her will.
The sister-in-law gritted her teeth and was about to open her mouth.
A low and calm voice came from a distance.
"Third daughter-in-law! Is it possible that there is no one in this family that you are afraid of?"
Following these slightly majestic words, Zhou's mother was seen holding a basket full of fresh vegetables steadily in her right hand, and walked slowly into the yard with light steps.
Her left hand gently supported the pair of slightly old reading glasses on her nose. She looked through the lenses straight at Meimei who was standing in the yard, and uttered these soul-searching words.
Meimei, who was originally arrogant and insolent, suddenly felt as if her heart was being grasped by an invisible hand and shrank when she heard Zhou's mother's calm and questioning words. Almost at the same moment, Meimei's arrogance disappeared without a trace as if a basin of ice water was poured over her head.
Whether it was the anger that had just ignited in her heart or the violent movements of her body, she quickly suppressed them.
At this moment, she was like a flower that had been exposed to the scorching sun, with her head drooping, looking exactly like a mouse seeing a cat.
However, even so, Meimei still refused to give in and admit defeat easily.
She still mustered up her courage and complained first: "Mom, you can't blame me for this! It was obviously Jingjing who provoked me first!"
As she spoke, she kept her head down, not daring to meet Zhou's mother's gaze. However, her extremely guilty eyes kept rolling around in her sockets, as if she was racking her brains to think about how to deal with the reprimand and punishment that she might face next.
Zhou Jingjing held the feather duster tightly in both hands, like an enraged tiger, completely losing her usual dignity and reserve, and rushed into the house recklessly.
Her originally pretty face was now distorted by anger, her eyes wide open, saliva flying from her mouth, and she scolded the people outside the house: "Bah, put your grandma's crooked fart to rest! It was obviously you, who saw that my second sister-in-law's family bought a big house, and was full of envy and jealousy, but refused to admit it. Instead, you are here to make trouble out of nothing, and make up stories that the money they bought the house came from illegal sources. Don't think that you can be lawless just because you are pregnant, and let everyone be polite to you. Let me tell you, with your character, you are not worthy of anyone's fear!"
Zhou Jingjing's curse poured out like a torrential rain, causing everyone present to look at her sideways.
As she cursed, she waved the feather duster in her hand, as if to vent all the anger in her heart. With each harsh word, the furious and ferocious expression on her face gradually faded, replaced by a sense of relief after a hearty feeling.
However, the woman who confronted Zhou Jingjing, Meimei, did not show any weakness.
She was seen with a big belly, her hands on her hips, her eyes wide open, and a ferocious look on her face.
She pointed at Zhou Jingjing and cursed back, "Bullshit! How dare you slander me by saying that I'm jealous of my second sister-in-law? I think it's you who can't bear to see my second brother and his wife living well, so you deliberately fan the flames and sow discord here, and even pretend to be righteous to accuse me. You are simply the thief crying "stop thief", so insidious!"
"Fuck your mother..."
The two of them fought back and forth, neither giving in. For a moment the whole room was filled with their vulgar shouting and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Alright! Stop arguing! Look at how you two behave. The third sister-in-law doesn't act like a third sister-in-law at all, and the younger sister-in-law doesn't act like a younger sister-in-law. If people outside hear this, who knows how they will laugh at our family behind our backs! It will be so embarrassing if they tell others!"
Seeing this, the sister-in-law quickly gave Zhou Jingjing a look, then grabbed her arm and quickly walked into the house.
Ruan Xiaotang really didn't want to continue to argue with the unreasonable Meimei, so she reached out and took the basket full of vegetables from Zhou's mother, and walked towards the kitchen without looking back.
In the blink of an eye, Zhou's mother and Meimei were the only ones left in the huge yard, standing there with their eyes rolled at each other. The atmosphere seemed a little awkward.
Meimei, who was so arrogant and domineering just now, now seemed like a deflated ball, and her momentum suddenly weakened.
Zhou's mother walked slowly to a chair and sat down. Her expressionless face seemed to have become even more gloomy. She stared at Meimei across from her without saying a word.
Speaking of the third daughter-in-law, she seems to have changed completely since she became pregnant.
I always feel depressed in my heart, and it's the kind of feeling that is particularly twisted, awkward, and makes me feel particularly helpless.
She seemed to be unwilling to accept the result from the bottom of her heart and liked to compete with her second daughter-in-law in everything.
In life, people always like to compare with each other. Comparing food, clothes and dressing seems to have become a normal state. However, this endless comparison often brings unexpected consequences.
As time goes by, after comparison, the gap and disparity between them become more and more obvious.
Some people live in spacious and bright houses and wear fashionable and gorgeous clothes; while others can only look on with envy and gradually lose their balance in their hearts.
