Chapter 31: Still in Charge



Tai Jingwan and Jiang Jinyue were so angry that they laughed when they heard this.

Are they fighting?

What kind of fight is this? For Gu Huaizhi?

Does he deserve it?

"I wonder where my sister heard this ridiculous thing from?" Tai Jingwan looked at Gu Nianshu and asked.

"It's spread all over the place, are you still afraid that I can't say it?" For some reason, Gu Nianshu felt a little scared when she saw Tai Jingwan's eyes.

"Then why didn't Sister Nianshu ask me or Sister Jiang in person, but just made a final conclusion?" Tai Jingwan looked at Gu Nianshu sarcastically.

Tai Jingwan thought that she had been very sincere to her sister-in-law during the three years since she married Gu Huaizhi, but this sister-in-law was an ungrateful person who could never be tamed.

Never know what satisfaction is.

"How dare you do such a thing? Are you afraid that I won't say anything?" Gu Nianshu said to the two of them sarcastically.

...

...

"But why should we admit to something we never did?" Tai Jingwan asked back.

"Humph, everyone has seen it. Are you trying to say that this is fake?" Gu Nianshu looked at the two of them and said dissatisfiedly.

She has recently taken a fancy to a piece of headwear in the Treasure Pavilion, but she doesn't have enough money on hand. Now, with such a good opportunity, wouldn't these two people try to curry favor with her?

It would be best if someone could give her a set of jewelry from Treasure Pavilion.

Gu Nianshu thought secretly in her heart.

"I'm sorry, when you said everyone saw it, who did you mean? How about we go find someone to confront them? Or did Sister Nianshu personally see the fight between Sister Jiang and I?" Tai Jingwan had originally been tolerant of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law because she and Gu Huaizhi had been able to go through life together.

But since listening to Jiang Jinyue's voice, Tai Jingwan has broken her previous style of behavior.

In everything, put yourself first.

As for the Gu family, whether they are good or not, what does it have to do with her?

"Oh my God, sister-in-law, you are not going to deny it, are you? Everyone saw it, and I can't put the accusation on you with just a few words, right?" Gu Nianshu was stunned when she saw Tai Jingwan's expression. Then he looked at Tai Jingwan with some sarcasm.

That's all, and you're still a noble lady from an aristocratic family?

It's nothing special.

"Oh my God, you are such a weird sister-in-law. Do you want me to fight with Sister Tai? Then, everyone will say that you have a pair of vicious sisters-in-law and your brother's backyard is a mess. Let me ask you, in the whole capital, which young man from a good family would be willing to marry a girl like you?" Jiang Jinyue rolled her eyes and said seriously.

"Nianshu, stop talking nonsense." When Mrs. Tang heard this, she pretended to stop Gu Nianshu.

However, Aunt Qiao looked at Gu Nianshu with disdain. Is this the good daughter taught by the old lady?

"Mom, my sisters-in-law dare to do this, are they afraid that their daughter will say a few words?" Gu Nianshu said with a pout.

"Sister, I can't take the blame for this. The injuries of Sister Jiang and I were caused by an accident, not as rumored by outsiders. Not to mention, Sister Jiang and I have no disputes. Even if there are, neither of us are the kind of people who make trouble for no reason." Tai Jingwan was not afraid that Old Mrs. Tang would be embarrassed and angry, and she decided to tear off the fig leaf anyway.

This would save her and Jiang Jinyue from having to take the blame.

"Ms. Tai, how can you talk like that? Nianshu is your sister-in-law, and she also believed the rumors outside. Since it's not true, just explain it clearly. Why are you so aggressive?" Old Mrs. Tang was unhappy when she heard Tai Jingwan say that about her precious daughter.

"It's funny what mother-in-law said. How come my sister and I can say whatever Sister Nianshu says? Whenever we say something about Sister Nianshu, mother-in-law would argue with us. It turns out that a daughter-in-law is different from a daughter." After Jiang Jinyue finished speaking, she pretended to wipe away the non-existent tears.

"Okay, since you weren't injured in a fight, what are the injuries on your body?" Seeing that the question was related to her own daughter, Mrs. Tang had to quickly change the subject.

"Mother-in-law, this is really strange. I don't know who bribed the coachman to take Sister Tai and me to the suburbs, causing the horse to go crazy. Mother-in-law, do you know that Sister Tai and I will not be able to come back to see you sooner?" Jiang Jinyue cried and fell in front of Old Mrs. Tang.

After hearing what Jiang Jinyue said, Mrs. Tang was stunned at first, and then she thought with some regret, it was almost the same, how could these two people be so lucky?

If they died, the dowries of the Tai and Jiang families would belong to the Gu family.

After all, these two people have no children. Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Tang remembered that Gu Huaizhi said that Tang Wan'er's child should be registered under Tai Jingwan's name.

Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Tang secretly glanced at Tai Jingwan's belly.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Tai Jingwan has a good family background, but it's a pity that she is not pregnant.

It's an unlucky person.

Old Mrs. Tang looked at Jiang Jinyue again and looked down on her daughter-in-law from the bottom of her heart. She was just a merchant's daughter who relied on her family's assets. Otherwise, why would her son marry her as his co-wife?

What made Mrs. Tang most angry was that Mrs. Jiang actually dared to talk back to her.

I really don't recognize my position in the Gu family.

"Ms. Tai, you have to look into this matter carefully. I am old, and you are the head of this family." Old Mrs. Tang glanced at Mrs. Tai and said.

I thought to myself that the man had gone too easy on himself.

However, old Mrs. Tang thought that it would be better for Mrs. Tai not to die yet. After all, her good grandson had not been born yet and had not been registered under Tai Jingwan's name. If the Tai family insisted on taking back the dowry, they would have no way to stop it.

As for Jiang, if anything happens to her, there's no way she'll get her dowry back.

Even though the Jiang family is a royal merchant, they are just a merchant family.

"Mother-in-law, look, your daughter-in-law is the head of the family, but she still allows others to hurt her and her sister. She is really not worthy of being in charge of the Gu family." Tai Jingwan thought that the amount of money in the Gu family's account was cleaner than her face. In the past, she had put a lot of money into it. In fact, many things were sent to her by her parents out of pity for her.

Now, what she has to do is to hand over the power of the family to whoever wants to be the head of the family.

"What are you talking about? If you don't take over this family, who will?" Old Mrs. Tang had no intention of taking it over herself. She looked at Jiang Jinyue who was standing beside her. It was said that the daughters of the Jiang family were good at calculating. Old Mrs. Tang thought, if the power to be the head of the family was handed over to Jiang.

I think their family life will get even better, right?

Thinking of this, Old Mrs. Tang looked at Jiang Jinyue with a smile.

Tai Jingwan now understood why Gu Nianshu's expression changed faster than turning the pages of a book. She had inherited old Tang's shamelessness.

Jiang Jinyue rubbed the chicken skin on her body. The look in Old Mrs. Tang's eyes made her feel very uncomfortable.

"My mother-in-law is now in her prime, and she is the most fair and just person. Naturally, she should be the head of this family." Tai Jingwan said with a smile.

After saying that, he took out the key from his sleeve and handed it respectfully to Mr. Tang.
