Chapter 20: Threats are ineffective
If it had been from the beginning, Fu's mother would have been calm and asked her why she came back so late.
Jiang Xin is not such an unreasonable person.
She would naturally speak in a nice tone and explain the reason to Fu's mother.
But Mrs. Fu scolded her without any reason and didn't even ask the reason. Jiang Xin got angry all of a sudden.
When dealing with impolite people, you should give them an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
Jiang Xin would treat Fu's mother the same way she treated her.
It is simply wishful thinking to expect her to be humble in front of Fu's mother!
Jiang Xin is not stupid, so how could she not understand the meaning of what Fu's mother just said?
To put it bluntly, Fu's mother gave many warnings and instructions.
The reason why they asked her to return to the Fu family before dark was simply because they were afraid that something might happen to her on the way and affect their family's reputation.
Furthermore, if something happened during her marriage with Fu Yu, if her life was in danger or she died accidentally, Fu's mother was afraid that she would affect Fu Yu's reputation.
After all, just now, Fu's mother had clearly said the words "wife-killing".
Nowadays, people in the village are gossipy. If she had an accident just a few days after marrying Fu Yu, the villagers would definitely gossip about her.
If Fu Yu was labeled as a "wife-killer", it would be difficult for him to find another wife in this village in the future.
If this gossip gets out, even if it's just a coincidence, other families will have concerns when marrying off their daughters.
That's why Mother Fu is so concerned about her safety.
Before the divorce certificate comes out, she will keep a close eye on Jiang Xin.
Jiang Xin was speechless, thinking, can't Mrs. Fu think of something nice?
When Mother Fu said this, could she understand that Mother Fu wished she would die?
As expected, after hearing Jiang Xin's threatening words, Fu's mother fell silent instantly.
She just stared at Jiang Xin in a daze.
After Jiang Xin threatened Fu's mother, she turned around and went back to her room.
She had been running outside all afternoon and was really tired.
She didn't want to confront and get angry with Fu's mother anymore, so she chose to leave directly.
Unexpectedly, it seemed like Mrs. Fu was deliberately looking for trouble with her.
Seeing Jiang Xin was about to leave, he walked over, stretched out his hand and violently grabbed Jiang Xin, preventing her from leaving:
"I think you little bitch, you are really rebellious!"
"Who gave you the courage to disrespect your elders? No matter what I say, I am still your mother-in-law. I am teaching you, so you just listen to me obediently!"
"You still want to attack me? Believe it or not, if you dare to move, I will go to the village chief and ask him to seek justice for me!"
In this era, the village chief generally has more say.
Therefore, Fu's mother said this in order to make Jiang Xin obedient.
After all, she had just suffered a loss at the hands of Jiang Xin this morning.
At this moment, although Mrs. Fu was talking a lot, she looked like she was not afraid of Jiang Xin.
She used her status as an elder to put pressure on her, but in fact, Mrs. Fu was a coward.
It's just that I'm holding my anger in my heart and can't express it.
Jiang Xin's arms were restrained and she couldn't move.
She glanced at Fu's mother and frowned when she saw her angry face.
Jiang Xin really didn't want to argue with that crazy woman, Mother Fu, anymore.
But she couldn't stand the other party who kept pestering her.
In fact, if she wanted to leave, Mother Fu's limited strength would not be enough to hold her back.
But at this moment, Mother Fu used brute force. If she pulled Mother Fu away, Mother Fu would probably be injured.
It’s not that Jiang Xin was afraid of being branded as someone who beat her mother-in-law.
However, if she took action and pulled Fu's mother's hands apart, what would she do if her old arms and legs were broken and could not withstand the torture?
It takes about twenty minutes to walk from the village to the town hospital.
Fu Yuren was not at home, and it was impossible for Fu's father, an old man, to take Fu's mother to the hospital in the middle of the night.
In the end, she was the only one who suffered.
While Jiang Xin was thinking about these things, something unexpected might happen.
Seeing Jiang Xin remained silent, Fu's mother thought that it was her words that suppressed Jiang Xin.
So she was honest!
Mother Fu raised her eyebrows, thinking that Jiang Xin was just so-so. As soon as she used the village chief's title to pressure her, she immediately behaved herself.
After all this time, he's still just a bully.
Mother Fu cleared her throat and said arrogantly:
"Ahem, since you are also afraid of the village chief, why not just leave it like this."
"Before Fu Yu comes back, you should stay at home and don't move around."
"I have never seen a daughter-in-law who doesn't stay at home but goes out to show her face every day."
"Anyway, there's food for you at home, so you won't starve. When Fu Yu comes home and you two get your divorce certificate, no one will care where you go!"
Originally, after Jiang Xin had thought about everything, she was thinking about what might happen if she violently pulled away Fu's mother's hand that was holding her arm.
In order to avoid getting herself into trouble, Jiang Xin chose a non-violent solution.
But at this moment, when she heard what Fu's mother said, she instantly burst into laughter out of anger.
From what Mrs. Fu said, she wants to restrict her personal freedom?
Are you still staying at home obediently?
Why?
This is not the Qing Dynasty. We have been open for many years. Why are there still people meddling in other people's affairs like this?
After all this time, it turns out that this Fu's mother is not a good person either.
Jiang Xin lowered her head and looked at Mother Fu.
She is very tall, about 1.72 meters tall.
Mother Fu was half a head shorter than her.
Jiang Xin's face darkened, and she looked at Fu's mother expressionlessly, feeling a bit oppressive.
Mother Fu felt the pressure rising instantly.
Looking at Jiang Xin's expression, it doesn't seem like she's willing to listen to her.
Mother Fu suddenly felt a little flustered. She turned to look at Father Fu, hoping that he would say a few words for her.
But Mr. Fu has always been taciturn and could not understand what Mrs. Fu meant at all.
Jiang Xin first roughly shook off Fu's mother's hand that was on her arm.
Then, he said impatiently:
"I have already made my words very clear. Don't bother me if there is nothing to do."
"Aren't you expecting me to divorce your son? I will divorce him when he comes back."
"During this period, if you continue to bother me, don't blame me for changing my mind!"
"Also, although I married into your Fu family, none of you have the right to restrict my personal freedom."
"My legs are on my own body. I can go wherever I want. You have no right to interfere!"
Isn’t Fu’s mother afraid that she will pester Fu Yu and would rather die than divorce him?
Then what is she afraid of? She just wants to say it.
This is the only way to scare Mother Fu!
