"Feng Zhiyi, come out quickly, your mother, eldest sister, and brother-in-law are here to visit you."
It's the wind and autumn moon.
Her loud and disrespectful tone startled the drowsy Lu Xiaoning, instantly waking her up.
"Mother......"
Lu Xiaoning grabbed Feng Zhiyi's clothes, clearly startled by the sound.
Feng Zhiyi quickly patted her head and gently comforted her, "It's okay, Ningning isn't afraid."
As the voice fell, a hint of coldness flashed in her slightly lowered eyes.
I thought Feng Qiulan would behave herself today since she returned to her parents' home, but I didn't expect her and Zhao Qinghua to be so impatient and come to my door so quickly to ask for the jade thumb ring.
Mother Lu couldn't help but shake her head after realizing what was happening. "This girl has really been corrupted by her family. It's ok for her to be disrespectful when visiting her own sister's house, but she actually calls her own sister by her full name."
Shen Yaqin frowned deeply, disapproving of Feng Qiuyue's loud and boisterous behavior. However, considering that Lan Guixiang was Feng Zhiyi's mother, even if the mother and daughter did not get along, she still had to show proper etiquette.
So she instructed her daughter-in-law, "Zhiyi, you and the child stay in the yard. I'll go out and see what they want to do coming here at this time."
After saying that, he stood up and walked outside.
"Oh my, it's my dear sister-in-law! No wonder I heard the magpies chirping so loudly in the trees this morning. I was wondering which distinguished guest was coming. It's you! Please come in and have a seat..."
Mother Lu walked out of the yard with a smile on her face. When she saw several people outside, she first greeted Lan Guixiang warmly, and then suddenly changed her tone.
She looked at Feng Qiulan with surprise. "Oh, isn't this Feng Qiulan? What a rare guest! But why aren't you at your parents' home on your wedding day? What are you doing here at the Lu family's?"
His tone was sarcastic, and his face was sour, clearly showing that he didn't like her.
Of course, Shen Yaqin did this not because Feng Qiulan suddenly broke off the engagement and refused to marry into their Lu family, but simply to support her good daughter-in-law!
What girl would go to her stepsister's in-laws' house instead of her own parents' house after getting married?
It is obvious that one would not come here for no reason, so come prepared!
Why is it that Shen Yaqin always guesses correctly?
The reason is simple.
If Feng Qiulan simply came to see Feng Zhiyi to reminisce about the past and to see if Feng Zhiyi was doing well in the Lu family, she would not have brought her own man and Lan Guixiang with her.
"you......"
Feng Qiulan's face instantly darkened at what Lu's mother said, and her facial features became a little distorted. She was about to curse when she was stopped by her husband's light cough.
At this moment, Lan Guixiang walked forward reluctantly. Looking at Lu's mother, who didn't have a good expression, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. But when she thought about the purpose of their visit to the Lu family, she could only bite the bullet and go forward.
She glanced into the yard, and with a forced smile, she asked Mother Lu, "Mother-in-law, is Zhiyi home? Her elder sister wants to see her. Could you please ask her to come out?"
When Mother Lu heard this, she immediately said, "Our Zhiyi is taking a nap right now. I don't want to wake her up. After all, the couple just got married and it's time to cultivate their relationship. If I suddenly run over and knock on the door to disturb them, what would I be doing?"
Out of the corner of her eye, Shen Yaqin noticed that Feng Qiulan's already unpleasant expression turned as black as a lump of coal after hearing her words, and her mood instantly improved.
She straightened her back and continued with a smile, "If there's anything you need, just tell me directly. I'll pass on your message after my Zhiyi wakes up."
"No! This matter must be discussed in front of her. She is not here. Even if we tell her, you can't solve it." Feng Qiulan also wanted to endure it, but when she heard that Lu's mother refused to help them call for help, she instantly became anxious.
Seeing her jump out and start making a scene, Shen Yaqin didn't tolerate her and started scolding her directly, "Everyone says that people need face and trees need bark, but you don't even have face!"
She glanced at Feng Qiulan indifferently, and her eyes rolled as she saw the villagers moving towards her.
Then he raised his voice and continued to curse, "Not only did you steal our Zhiyi's marriage, but now Zhiyi has married into our Lu family, and you are still not quiet and are even coming to our Lu family to cause trouble."
"Come on, why don't you just live your own life in the city? Why do you have to come and cause trouble for our Zhiyi? What's the matter? Didn't you bully her enough in the old Feng family before? You want to force her to death, right?"
"You!" Feng Qiulan was so angry at what Lu's mother said that she vomited blood. Her face turned black and white, and then white and blue. She was so angry that she felt unwell.
Lan Guixiang's face was also pale. She felt something was wrong and hurriedly explained, "No, no, mother-in-law, Qiulan didn't mean that. She just, just..."
Shen Yaqin scoffed, interrupting her and questioning, "Ha, as Zhiyi's mother, don't you feel any remorse when you say such things?"
"My dear sister-in-law, the reason I call you sister is all because of my daughter Zhiyi. Otherwise, with your heart as high as yours, I wouldn't even want to give you a glance, let alone a greeting!"
"Because you're not worth it!"
Her tone was even colder than before.
Shen Yaqin was furious, especially when she saw her in-laws repeatedly speaking up for her stepdaughter Feng Qiulan. She wanted nothing more than to grab a broom and chase them away!
Who are these people?
She doesn't know how to love her own daughter, but actually tries to please an ungrateful stepdaughter. Is Lan Guixiang crazy and can't tell good from bad?
If Feng Qiulan is a good person who knows how to be grateful, then it is understandable that Lan Guixiang treats her well, but the problem is that Feng Qiulan never acknowledged Lan Guixiang as her stepmother from the beginning to the end.
I just treated Lan Guixiang as a free babysitter, but Lan Guixiang...
The more Shen Yaqin thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more she felt sorry for her dear daughter-in-law.
Zhiyi is such a good girl, but she ended up with such a mother and her sister, who is also a heartless and ungrateful wretch.
"I...I..."
Lan Guixiang felt ashamed under Shen Yaqin's sarcastic gaze, especially by what Shen Yaqin said, which made her so embarrassed that she wished she could dig a hole and crawl into it on the spot.
She opened her mouth and spoke with difficulty after a long while.
"relatives by marriage......"
Feng Qiuyue immediately grabbed her and stopped her from begging. "Mom, please don't try to get close to her anymore. Didn't you see she scolded us on purpose? She did this because she didn't want us to know what she meant!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a pleasant voice came from the yard.
"Mom, please calm down. It's not worth ruining your health for the sake of some irrelevant people's anger!"
