Chapter 166 Envious of Wu Yue's Aggrieved Feelings, Wu Yue's Misery...
Wu Yue felt wronged and miserable.
But Wu Yue was helpless; Wei Ning and Ming Xi were not people she could easily provoke.
After Wei Ning and Ming Xi announced their relationship, no one was too surprised. After all, everyone knew that Wei Ning liked Ming Xi, and now that they were together, most people congratulated them on finally being together.
However, there were also some sarcastic remarks.
Take Dong Chunling for example. I don't know where she heard that Mingxi and Weining were dating, but she came back the next day to find out more. As a result, she saw Mingxi and Weining walking home hand in hand.
Mingxi and Weining were wearing matching outfits sponsored by Guan Lixin.
This is the sample outfit from the original photoshoot. It was used for the shoot and was no longer suitable for resale, so Guan Lixin gave it directly to Mingxi and her partner.
The weather warmed up today, and Mingxi was begged by Weining to go out wearing the same couple's jackets together.
The two are good-looking, have great figures, and are tall with long legs. When they stand together, it's like they're in a movie. Passersby can't help but smile like doting aunts when they see them.
Of course, except for Dong Chunling.
Seeing this scene, Dong Chunling's eyes turned red with jealousy.
Why is Mingxi so lucky? Zhao Sulan dotes on her and protects her, and she has never suffered any grievances since childhood. When she can't find a job, the director of the Women's Federation comes to her door and invites her to sit in the office. Even when she's looking for a partner, she's so lucky!
She stared intently at Mingxi and Weining, and Mingxi, sensing something, turned her head to look at them.
When Dong Chunling saw Mingxi looking over, she deliberately spat on the ground and shouted, "Shameless!"
She deliberately wanted Mingxi to shout loudly, "Flirting with people in broad daylight, shameless!"
Hey, how could Mingxi, with her fiery temper, possibly tolerate this?
She released Wei Ning's hand and strode forward: "Dong Chunling, who are you talking about?"
Seeing Mingxi walking towards her, Dong Chunling's heart suddenly tightened, but she still stubbornly said, "Who cares who I'm talking about? I'm not talking about you."
She figured she hadn't named anyone, so even if Mingxi asked, she could say she was talking about someone else.
Dong Chunling's plan was good, but things didn't go as she expected at all.
Mingxi raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "Oh, you're not talking about me. Then who are you talking about? I'm just curious to find out. Who are you calling shameless?"
Dong Chunling was taken aback by her question. Where could she find such a person? She could only stammer, "You...you...who do you think I am?"
Mingxi: "I was just curious and asking around. After all, I didn't see anyone flirting on the street. I thought you were unhappy in your marriage and were jealous of the women walking with men on the street, so you made sarcastic remarks."
Dong Chunling was provoked by the statement that her marriage was unhappy and jumped up and down in a frenzy.
"Who the hell are you talking about? Who's saying their marriage is unhappy? My relationship with Hu Mingyi is great. Who gave you permission to spread rumors that our marriage is unhappy? Are you that much better than me? You still found a sickly partner. I'm waiting for you to end up like your mother, a young widow!"
Mingxi's eyes turned cold in an instant.
Dong Chunling's words were extremely malicious; she was clearly hoping for Wei Ning's early death.
Mingxi was about to say something with a dark face when a figure suddenly jumped out from the side and slapped Dong Chunling across the face.
Before Dong Chunling could react, she heard Mingxi call out "Mom" to the person in front of her. Only then did she realize that the person who had jumped out and slapped her was Zhao Sulan.
With tears in her eyes and a wronged expression, Dong Chunling cried out, "Aunt Zhao, why did you hit me!"
Zhao Sulan: "Hmph, how could I hit someone? I'll hit someone, and I'll hit you! Dong Chunling, what did you just say? You hoped my daughter would become a widow like me? I, Zhao Sulan, have lived half my life and have never seen such a vicious woman as you. My daughter has only just started dating Wei Ning, and you're already hoping she'll become a widow? I'd like to ask you, what grudge do you hold against my daughter? Or did Wei Ning offend you so much that you wish for his death?"
Zhao Sulan, with an imposing air, unleashed a barrage of machine gun fire, leaving Dong Chunling speechless.
Their argument was quite loud, and people from several nearby courtyards came out to see what was going on. Coincidentally, Ding Yumei was one of them.
Ding Yumei couldn't bear to hear Dong Chunling wishing for her son to die.
Despite Ding Yumei's constant nagging and demands for obedience from Wei Ning, the truth is that Wei Ning has suffered from heart disease since childhood and is physically weak. His healthy growth to adulthood is entirely due to Ding Yumei's tireless efforts.
When she heard Dong Chunling wishing for Wei Ning's death, she instantly exploded, rushed out, swung her arm, and slapped Dong Chunling twice.
Ding Yumei was not to be underestimated; with two thuds, Dong Chunling was knocked to the ground with her head tilted to the side.
Ding Yumei was about to rush up and slap her again, but the people around her saw that Ding Yumei was really serious and quickly stepped in to break it up.
"Old Zhao, Old Ding, don't be angry, don't be angry. It's not worth arguing with Dong Chunling."
Ding Yumei shouted, "Why not? Old Ma, didn't you hear what Dong Chunling shouted just now?!"
Zhao Sulan: "That's right. Mingxi just told everyone that she's dating Weining, and the next day Dong Chunling said she hopes my daughter will become a widow like me. What does she mean by that? Is she deliberately trying to make things difficult for our family?"
Zhao Sulan looked angry, but her words were still reasonable and well-founded: "Everyone, please don't forget that my husband, Lao Ming, was killed because a machine screw came loose and fell down. To protect the important machine below, he desperately pushed it aside, which is why he didn't escape and sacrificed himself. Everyone in the factory calls my husband a hero. I became a widow to protect the last bloodline left by my husband in this world. Now, Dong Chunling is using my status as a widow to make a fuss, saying she's waiting for my son, Xiao Ming, to become a widow like me. Does that do justice to my husband's sacrifice?"
Zhao Sulan was absolutely telling the truth. Ming's father did indeed sacrifice himself to protect the machines, which is why the factory gave such a large sum of compensation and allowed Zhao Sulan to inherit his job.
When Zhao Sulan said that, many people present were reminded of what happened back then.
Ming's father sacrificed himself for the factory.
Most of the people present were employees of the steel rolling mill. Even if they didn't remember Ming's father's kindness, they still had some respect for him. When they heard Zhao Sulan say this, their eyes turned clearly unfriendly towards Dong Chunling.
Dong Chunling felt everyone's gazes, her body trembled, and she belatedly realized that she seemed to have incurred the wrath of the crowd.
She stammered, "No, I, I didn't... It was Mingxi, she, she said it first..."
Dong Chunling tried to turn the tables, but to her surprise, no one took the bait.
Even if they didn't know the situation, they knew Mingxi and Dong Chunling's character. Mingxi was definitely not the type to start trouble, while Dong Chunling was more likely to do so.
Not to mention, there were onlookers who had been watching since Dong Chunling started the trouble. They quickly explained the situation in a few words, and Dong Chunling's plan to turn the tables failed.
Even Aunt Ma, who had come to break up the fight, wanted to give up now.
Dong Chunling has such a sharp tongue; she's always looking for trouble.
Xiaoming and Xiaowei were just passing by, but she had to be so sarcastic. Now that she's been beaten, she has no one to blame but herself.
At this moment, Dong's parents, who had heard from others that Dong Chunling had come back to cause trouble again, finally arrived late.
When Aunt Ma saw the elderly couple coming over, she breathed a sigh of relief. She quickly recounted what had happened, and Mr. Dong's vision went black; he almost fainted again.
He really didn't know what his daughter was thinking!
Why do they always have to cause trouble, day after day?
Father Dong, whose back was already hunched, bent even more and hurriedly apologized to Mingxi and Weining.
"Mingxi, Weining, I want to apologize to you on behalf of my troublesome daughter. It's her fault. She shouldn't have talked nonsense. I will definitely discipline her properly when I get back and promise it won't happen again. I just hope that this time, you can forgive her for my sake?"
At this point, Dong Chunling was already scared. She rubbed her hands together and said, "Yes, I was wrong, I was wrong. Mingxi, please forgive me."
Mingxi glanced at Dong Chunling, too lazy to argue with such a brainless person; it would be beneath her.
She waved her hand and said, "I'll let it go this time, but if there's a next time, it definitely won't be that simple."
Mr. and Mrs. Dong were filled with gratitude and thanked Mingxi for her magnanimity in forgiving Dong Chunling. After thanking Mingxi, they apologized to Wei Ning profusely.
After apologizing, the two of them dragged Dong Chunling away amidst the cold snorts of Zhao Sulan and Ding Yumei.
Despite the apology from the Dong couple, Ding Yumei and Zhao Sulan were still unhappy.
Mingxi and Weining, being the younger generation, shouldn't argue with the Dong family, but how could they not?
Dong Chunling's current situation is all thanks to the spoiling of her parents. Now, her father is putting on airs and telling them not to hold it against her for his sake. But to put it bluntly, what face does he have? He's just taking advantage of the fact that we're all old neighbors and that they're elders, so people won't hold it against him.
Ding Yumei: "She's a shameless old woman who takes advantage of her age."
Zhao Sulan: "Give me face today, give me face tomorrow, how much face is that?"
Both mothers were in a bad mood, so Mingxi quickly stepped forward and hugged Zhao Sulan's arm, saying coquettishly, "Mom, don't be angry. It's not worth getting angry over someone like that."
Zhao Sulan glanced at Mingxi a few more times, and her mood improved considerably.
She nodded and said, "Yes, it's not worth getting angry over someone like that. Let's go home."
Zhao Sulan turned to greet Ding Yumei, and Mingxi also quietly waved to Wei Ning. The mother and daughter left, and Wei Ning stepped forward and approached Ding Yumei: "Mom, don't be angry anymore."
Ding Yumei glanced at him and sighed, "This son is just not as considerate as a daughter."
Look at Mingxi, and then look at Weining.
Tsk tsk.
Ding Yumei pursed her lips, but then she thought that if Mingxi married into the family, she would be her daughter-in-law and also her family.
Thinking about it this way, she instantly became happy.
They even treated Wei Ning kindly.
She raised her hand and patted Wei Ning's shoulder: "Xiao San, you better treat Xiao Ming well, or he might dump you."
If you make Mingxi angry, she'll lose her good daughter-in-law. Who will she complain to then?
Wei Ning: ? ? ? Why did his mother bring this up?
However, he nodded and said, "Of course."
He would absolutely not let Mingxi dump him.
