Chapter 591 The Old Lady Scolds the First Madam
The First Madam snorted coldly and glanced in the direction of Concubine Xue.
"See that? That's what you call a loving mother and a filial daughter. They don't even look down on you, their incompetent foster mother."
Clearly, the Shu family already knew that Aunt Xue had been secretly trying to get on Shu Yu's good side.
Aunt Xue still had a slap mark on her face, which must have been from the Shu family.
Hearing the First Madam's words, Aunt Xue looked at Shu Yu with hatred in her eyes, "Some people are just ungrateful wretches."
Shu Yu raised her head, looking at the Shu family with a half-smile, "What, you've forgotten the pain of not being beaten these past few days? Can't you be ungrateful? Have you ever raised me?"
The Shu family members immediately fell silent, and Aunt Xue's gaze grew even angrier.
Shu Yu withdrew her gaze and said to Madam Hou, "Then I'll be leaving now."
Just as Madam Hou was about to nod, an old woman came in from outside. "Ah Yu, why aren't you ready yet?"
The old lady was genuinely worried. After waiting for so long without anyone coming out, she started to have all sorts of wild thoughts, wondering if the Shu family had bullied Ayu.
She knew perfectly well that the Shu family treated Ayu badly.
Even if Ayu didn't say anything, she could guess with her toes.
So, after waiting and waiting for a while without anyone coming out, she couldn't wait to go in and see.
The Shu family members were about to go inside when they were all taken aback when they saw the unfamiliar old lady appear, and they all looked at her.
"Who are you?" the young woman asked, frowning.
The old lady could tell who was who with just a glance.
Standing next to Ayu must be Madam Hou and the Sixth Miss, while the row of women at the entrance of the main room must be members of the Shu family, who are definitely not good people.
The old lady stepped forward, puffed out her chest, and said, "Me? I'm Ayu's grandmother. You must be the women from the Shu family, right? Sure enough, you're all sharp-tongued, mean-spirited, and competitive. You look like you're unlucky, unfortunate, and unphotogenic. No wonder you dragged my Ayu down to this godforsaken place."
After speaking, he paused, then turned to Hou and explained, "I wasn't talking about you."
She used several idioms she learned from Da Hu, which was awesome.
The moment they met, the Shu family was berated by this unfamiliar old woman, and the language she used was extremely rude.
Madam Shu immediately exploded, "Where did you come from, you old hag, coming to someone else's house to cause trouble? Don't you have any manners?"
Shu Yu narrowed her eyes. Dare to insult her grandmother?
She tried to strike, but the old woman stopped her, hands on her hips, and stepped forward. "If you're so well-mannered, how come you've been exiled here to do hard labor? If you're so well-mannered, why don't you wash your hair or face? You stink and are disgusting. Do you think you're still the high and mighty wife of the prefect? Bah! Look at yourself now, you're not even as good as a beggar. Really, you're nothing!"
The first wife was so angry she almost fainted. Her head was spinning, and she pointed at the old lady, but couldn't utter a single word. "You, you..."
"What? Did I say something wrong?"
"I'll beat you to death!" The First Madam was furious. She looked around, grabbed a broom, and charged forward.
Shu Yu stepped forward, but the old lady stopped her again.
She didn't move, just stood there, and then shouted, "Da Niu, go!"
Shu Yu, "..."
Zhao Xi, standing at the door, was practically spitting out blood. He suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and rushed in without saying a word.
