"What's wrong? What did your parents say to you when they kept you here?" Liu Dekai sat down next to Mo Youyou and asked softly.
Today's incident has left everyone feeling unhappy.
It was originally meant to celebrate his promotion, but it ended up being a sour ending!
“Mom and Dad said we need to pay more attention to Xiao Rui’s education,” Mo Youyou said.
Liu Dekai agreed. He had seen other people's children today. Although they were two or three years older than Liu Shengrui, they seemed very polite and communicated clearly with their parents. In contrast, his son looked like a little fool.
How could he not feel disappointed?
Zhang Cuihua was completely unaware of the problem. She was still trying to appease Liu Shengrui, saying that her eldest grandson was wronged and pitiful, and how bad the little boy was.
These sounds made Mo Youyou even more irritable, and finally, she couldn't take it anymore.
"Are you ever going to stop?!" Mo Youyou suddenly stood up, walked to Zhang Cuihua's side, and yelled at her.
Zhang Cuihua, who was suddenly yelled at, was also confused. She glared at Mo Youyou and said, "Speak properly, why are you yelling? Don't scare our Xiao Rui!"
Mo Youyou: "..."
Here we go again, saying things like "Don't scare the child." They seem to be doing it for the child's own good, but in reality, everything they do is ruining the child.
Is this love for him or harm for him?
“You can’t educate your child like this! You’re always making him suffer. Didn’t he do anything wrong today? Taking someone else’s toy, is that right?” Mo Youyou asked.
"Who's being so persistent?" Zhang Cuihua got angry as soon as she brought it up. She had already apologized, but her eldest grandson had been wronged, and now she still had to complain. "You didn't stand up for Xiao Rui today. As long as I was protecting him, how dare you criticize me?"
Normally, Zhang Cuihua wouldn't be this assertive in front of Mo Youyou, but she felt she had done the right thing today and had no reason not to be assertive.
"Maintain, maintain, maintain! All you know is 'maintain'? You'll only corrupt and ruin Xiao Rui like this. You think you're doing him a favor, but you're actually harming him, you know that? If you're uneducated, don't teach your child, okay?!"
Zhang Cuihua was furious.
Putting everything else aside, she poured her heart and soul into her eldest grandson, yet in the end, she ended up harming him. Who can understand that?
"Oh dear, this is outrageous..." Zhang Cuihua sat down in a chair, slapped her thigh and started crying, full of grievances, "Mo Youyou, you just look down on me!"
Zhang Cuihua isn't stupid. How could she not have feelings about how her daughter-in-law treated her?
Even if it wasn't explicitly stated, Mo Youyou's ever-present air of superiority made it clear to her that Mo Youyou looked down on her.
Of course Zhang Cuihua knew!
Pretending not to know is for the sake of family harmony and to avoid putting her son in a difficult position.
But since Mo Youyou started the fight today, she didn't want to keep putting up with it. Her son had become a battalion commander and would become more and more successful in the future. Why should she always be the one to put up with it?
“I know you despise me! From the first time Dekai brought you to see me, you have been disgusted with me. Don’t think I don’t know! This is unfilial of you. I am your mother-in-law, I am an elder. No matter what, you should respect me and be filial to me. That is what a good daughter-in-law should do!”
Just like Su Yueya before...
Zhang Cuihua didn't say these words aloud, but she knew what she could say and what she absolutely couldn't.
Very clever!
Mo Youyou could no longer tolerate it. She didn't care about Zhang Cuihua's feelings at all. She admitted that she looked down on Zhang Cuihua, but she still allowed Zhang Cuihua to move into her house.
But now, when it comes to Liu Shengrui's education, she can't stand it.
"I'm just your daughter-in-law, not your daughter. Why should I be filial to you? I'll be filial to my own parents. Who do you think you are? Let me tell you, I'm putting this out there today: don't take yourself too seriously!"
"And this is the most important thing! I won't allow you to teach my son like this. Don't think that indulging him and giving in to his every whim is good for him; it's actually harming him! If I find out you're teaching your child badly again, you can move out and never see your grandson again!"
Mo Youyou shouted angrily. She had originally wanted to discuss it with Liu Dekai first, but now she was not going to discuss it anymore.
Let's do it!
She was issuing a notification, not discussing it.
Regardless of Liu Dekai's opinion, she would drive Zhang Cuihua away as long as her son was in danger.
Zhang Cuihua was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything more.
Because she knew that Mo Youyou wasn't just bluffing; Mo Youyou was really capable of doing such a thing, after all, she had been "kicked out" before.
However, Zhang Cuihua felt wronged. She felt that she and her eldest grandson had been wronged today!
Warning Zhang Cuihua was far from enough.
The focus of today's matter is still on Liu Shengrui.
"When I'm disciplining the child, you just listen and don't say a word!" Mo Youyou told Zhang Cuihua, then picked up Liu Shengrui and sat back down on the sofa, making Liu Shengrui stand in front of her.
She wouldn't allow Liu Shengrui to sit or hold onto the coffee table; she wanted him to stand up straight.
"Stand still and pay attention!" Mo Youyou said.
Because of her anger, her expression was not good. Unlike usual, when she looked at her son with a smile and loving eyes, she was now more worried and angry.
"Liu Shengrui, you made a mistake today, do you know that?" Mo Youyou softened her tone; she still wanted to reason with her son.
However, Liu Shengrui just smiled at his mother without saying anything.
Mo Youyou: "..."
Why are you acting so silly?
“It’s wrong to snatch other people’s toys. Has Mom told you that if you want something, Mom can buy it for you, but you can’t snatch it?”
"When playing with other children, you should discuss and play together, instead of hogging all the toys by yourself. That's bad behavior. Good children don't do that, understand?"
"Furthermore, hitting people is even more wrong."
At this point, Mo Youyou almost choked up again.
She remembered how Liu Shengrui was about to hit her. If Liu Dekai hadn't stopped him in time, her son would definitely have hit her because of that moment when she was stunned.
She felt a tightness and pain in her chest.
"When problems arise, we must reason with people and persuade them with logic, not resort to violence, understand?"
Mo Youyou said a lot, and at the end of each sentence she tried to get a response from Liu Shengrui.
However, no.
From beginning to end, Liu Shengrui just stared at her with a grin, smiling so sweetly at her. The smile that usually melted Mo Youyou's heart seemed so powerless at this moment.
