Volume 1, Chapter 124: Destroying the Mother-in-Law

Xie Qingyi's words made her the focus of the whole party as she wished. The originally joyful atmosphere of the dinner suddenly became tense.

Xie Qingyi smiled very dazzlingly and covered her mouth deliberately, saying in a sinister tone: "Ah, I just like to tell the truth, and I can't stop myself. As a person, you can't be too honest. Sometimes you still have to tell some white lies."

Doesn't this clearly show that everyone in the audience was telling white lies to coax Yang Huirong?

Yang Huirong looked grim, she clenched her hands together and pinched herself tightly.

Her husband's illegitimate child is the biggest stain in her life and a shame that cannot be mentioned.

"Mother-in-law, my brother is not an illegitimate child. He is a member of our Jiang family. There is no need to report what happened in the past to others. Today is my mother's birthday dinner. If you are here to make my mother happy and sincerely wish her a happy birthday, you can stay. But if you are here to make my mother unhappy, I hope you have a sense of boundaries. Because people without a sense of boundaries are really annoying."

Xie Qingyi heard this and said angrily: "Jiang Qiansui, how do you talk to me? I am your mother-in-law."

Jiang Qiansui's eyes were clear, and she said in a gentle manner, "If you were not my mother-in-law, how could you be invited to my mother's birthday dinner? Since you are an elder, you should act like an elder. You can't take advantage of your age and say things that make people unhappy."

Jiang Qiansui's words stunned everyone in the audience. After all, everyone knew that Jiang Qiansui, as the daughter-in-law of the Zhan family, was very obedient.

Xie Qingyi has shown her majesty as a mother-in-law in front of everyone more than once, and has bossed Jiang Qiansui around in public.

Whether at a tea party with the ladies, Jiang Qiansui would prepare various delicious foods for them and serve tea.

Even if she was humiliated in front of others and was treated as a hen that didn't lay eggs, Jiang Qiansui never complained and always endured it silently.

Everyone in the upper class knew that the eldest daughter of the Jiang family loved Zhan Yanxun terribly. As the daughter-in-law of the Zhan family, she had always been submissive and endured humiliation, but she didn't expect that she would be so tough now.

Those who were not used to it before were secretly delighted. After all, Xie Qingyi was too arrogant, and there were more than one or two people in the noble ladies' circle who had complaints about her.

Yan Lan gently touched Xie Qingyi's arm and said in a sinister tone, "Mom, look how happy Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Wu are laughing. They are laughing at your joke. Jiang Qiansui is really going too far. How can she contradict you in public like this?"

At this time, Jiang Zhengguo said: "Today is my wife's birthday. I hope everyone here can have fun. Most importantly, I hope my wife can be happy. She has been by my side and taken care of me over the years. I am very grateful to have such a good wife."

"Mrs. Jiang, look how good Mr. Jiang is to you, and your daughter is so brave to protect you. Look how lucky you are."

"Yes, I heard that the illegitimate child has been driven out of the Jiang family. This is Mr. Jiang's attitude towards you."

"Why didn't I see President Zhan coming today? I heard that he was the one who organized this banquet. It seems that he put a lot of effort into it. It must have cost a lot of money. President Zhan is really filial to you, his mother-in-law."

At this time, Xie Qingyi said coldly: "How could my son be interested in that little money? He just told his subordinates to do it casually. So you must give birth to a son when you are young, so that you don't have to wait until you are old and even a birthday dinner needs your son-in-law to organize for you. When we were young, we didn't know each other. If we had known each other earlier, I would have secretly told you some secrets of having children. After all, I have given birth to two sons."

Xie Qingyi spoke very proudly, her two sons were her source of pride.

Xie Qingyi's words made Yang Huirong look unhappy. What she hated most in her life was people saying that she didn't have a son.

She originally thought that the birthday dinner organized by her son-in-law was a honor for her and a source of glory for her, but now it has become a reason for Xie Qingyi to attack her.

At this time, Yan Lan also spoke to the side and said proudly: "Mom, Mrs. Jiang has not given birth to a son. No matter what happens from now on, she will need the help of our family Yanxun. I just didn't expect that her birthday dinner would be organized by Yanxun so early. Those who didn't know thought that the Jiang Group had encountered some difficulties. It was difficult to even prepare a birthday dinner.

"We will not become a burden to Zhan Yanxun. After all, our Jiang Group is a well-known group in Country A."

Yang Huirong was not convinced. She had thought it was an honor for her son-in-law to organize a dinner for her, but now she was being treated as a burden.

"This birthday dinner was originally supposed to be prepared by me as the husband, but Zhan Yanxun is so filial that he insisted on preparing it. How much will it cost? I will give Yanxun double the red envelope. All we want is his filial piety."

Yan Lan said in a gloomy tone, "Hey, Mr. Jiang, you are being so polite. It's just a small amount of money. Why would our Zhan family care about it? My mother is not so fussy. She is just reminding you all, reminding those young ladies that they still have to give birth to a son so that they can have someone to rely on when they are old. They can't rely on their son-in-law for everything."

Xie Qingyi said even more arrogantly: "Yes, Yan Lan is right. I am just kindly reminding the young ladies present here to give birth to a son while you are still young. Then you don't have to rely on your son-in-law for everything in the future."

At this time, some people began to whisper.

"That seems to be the case. It seems that we have to give birth to a son as a safety net. Daughters will eventually get married and belong to someone else."

"Yes, yes, no matter how rich you are, you have to give birth to a son. You can't be inferior to others."

Listening to other people's whispers, Yang Huirong was almost furious.

Qiao Weiwei stood aside, smiling secretly with her lips pursed.

Jiang Qiansui's eyes were cold, and there was no warmth in them when she looked at Xie Qingyi. But she smiled and said, "Grandma, you've been caught in the rain, so do you want to tear up someone else's umbrella?"

Xie Qingyi: "What do you mean?"

Jiang Qiansui raised her lips slightly and said in a gentle voice, "I heard that your father was just an ordinary worker before he started the steel business. Life was hard at that time. Your father wanted to have a son, but he gave birth to five daughters in succession. You were the fifth child. When you were born, you were almost thrown into the ditch. It was your mother who risked her life to protect you despite her postpartum weakness. Although you barely saved your life, you have been in a difficult situation since you were a child. I heard that you didn't even have enough food to eat at that time, and they almost sent you to an orphanage."
