Volume 1, Chapter 239: Want to eat the dead!

The old lady leaned on her cane, pointed at Yang Huirong's nose and scolded, "You don't even know. Look, the good daughter you raised has been divorced by someone else. If I were you, I would be too embarrassed to go out. How dare you go out in such a flashy way?"

Jiang Qiansui's eyes were cold. Her grandmother was still strong when it came to scolding people.

In her previous life, after she divorced Zhan Yanxun, her grandmother came to the house and scolded her and her mother, humiliating them terribly.

They said that a woman like her who was driven out by her husband's family had no right to return to her parents' home. It would be better for her to die outside, because returning to her parents' home would only bring shame to her family.

She was close to despair at the time. Listening to her grandmother's scolding, she felt that life was hopeless and even thought about committing suicide.

The fact that Zhan Yanxun didn't want her was really unbearable for her, so she felt that life was meaningless amid her grandmother's scolding. So she cut her wrists in the bathtub and committed suicide. It was her brother who found her and stayed with her all the time.

My brother said that even if everyone in the world abandoned her, he would always be by her side. If she was not afraid of death, what else was there to be afraid of? If she was unwilling to give in and wanted revenge, he would do everything he could, even if they died together, to help her get revenge in the future.

In her previous life, her brother's company made her stronger, and now she didn't care about divorce anymore, so why would she care about the vicious words her grandmother said?

"What do you mean by divorce? Mom, what era is this? You are still so old-fashioned. My daughter did nothing wrong. The one who was wrong was Zhan Yanxun. Now my daughter doesn't want him anymore and is divorcing him."

"In our Jiang family, there has never been such a shameful thing as a woman being divorced and sent home. It is really immoral and shameful."

Grandma’s scolding hit me right on the nose, Jiang Qiansui said calmly.

"Grandma, you must be tired after traveling so long. Sit down and rest for a while. Talk less, or you will get tired."

Jiang Zhengguo also gave advice.

"Mom, look how sensible Sui Sui is. She was afraid you were tired so she asked you to sit down."

"She's sensible. If she were sensible, would she divorce Zhan Yanxun? It's so ugly for a girl to be divorced."

Jiang Zhengguo tried to calm the old lady down, but Yang Huirong said unconvincedly, "Mom, what era is this now? We advocate freedom of marriage and divorce. Zhan Yanxun is having an affair with another woman. Why should our daughter, Sui Sui, tolerate him?"

The old lady said sanctimoniously, "Sometimes men can't control themselves and have affairs with other women. As a wife, you just need to stabilize the family. You don't have to make such a fuss and be laughed at by others."

Yang Huirong said with disdain, "So what you mean is that even if Zhan Yanxun cheated on her, my daughter would have to swallow her anger like me, right?"

Jiang Zhengguo was speechless. He was dragged into this again.

Jiang Zhengguo frowned and said, "I am different from Zhan Yanxun. My story happened before we got married, and I didn't know she was pregnant. I have admitted my mistakes over the years, so why are you still holding on to it?"

Jiang Zhengguo was like a sandwich at the moment, caught in a dilemma.

At this time, the middle-aged woman who came with the old lady said, "Sister-in-law, I'm not saying anything bad about you. It's been so many years since big brother's incident. He was so good to you. He would rather contradict mom than protect you. But you didn't appreciate it at all and even mocked him like this. I feel so sorry for big brother."

The person who spoke was Jiang Zhengguo's brother's wife, Yang Huirong's sister-in-law, Chen Lina.

She had a pair of slanted eyes, and even though she was smiling, she looked as cunning as a fox, as if she was wearing a mask.

Jiang Qiansui said with a cold and arrogant look in her eyes: "Auntie, you should still feel sorry for my uncle. My dad doesn't need you to feel sorry for him."

Chen Lina's expression immediately turned ugly. She said with a half-smile, "Sui Sui, you are a rich lady, so your temper is different from others."

Jiang Qiansui said contemptuously: "Of course I know that my temper is different from others, and you dare to come to my house and talk nonsense."

Jiang Qiansui's eyes were as sharp as knives, making Chen Lina panic. When did this girl's eyes become so scary?

The old lady said angrily: "Who are you talking nonsense to? We are all your elders."

"You also know that you are the elders. Shouldn't the elders love the younger ones?"

Jiang Qiansui's words almost made the old lady die of anger.

Chen Lina said, "Mom, don't be angry. I think Jiang Qiansui will get divorced mainly because she is infertile. Sister-in-law, why don't you take your daughter to have a good look? Which family can tolerate infertility? Especially the Zhan family is so rich and powerful."

The old lady rolled her eyes at Yang Huirong and said with disdain, "Look at you, useless thing. You can't give birth to a son, and the daughter you gave birth to is not even fertile. I used to blame you for not giving birth to a son, but now the son you give birth to will be like Jiang Qiansui, infertile and useless, unable to carry on the family line. It's better not to give birth to a son."

Jiang Zhengguo quickly grabbed the old lady and said, "Mom, how can you say that? Do you know how much you hurt Huirong by saying that?"

"I just said a few words and she was hurt. If she were in my era, someone like her who didn't serve her mother-in-law and couldn't carry on the family line would have been beaten to death by her mother-in-law long ago."

Yang Huirong was shaking with anger, while Jiang Qiansui was pouring tea on the table. Jiang Qiansui's movements of pouring tea were very calm, yet made people feel inexplicably oppressed.

Jiang Qiansui poured the tea to the old lady and said, "Grandma, you've been running all the way here and you're in a hurry to go out. I'm afraid you haven't brushed your teeth. Why don't you have a cup of tea to rinse your mouth first?"

The old lady was shaking with anger.

"How old are you? How can you be so arrogant? Do you have any manners at all?"

"Grandma, you are old, but you don't seem to be well-educated."

The old lady was so angry that smoke was about to come out of her nostrils, and Jiang Zhengguo hurried to hold her back.

"Sui Sui, don't say that. She's your grandma."

"It was grandma. Look at how she treated me just now. If you don't know, you would think she was an enemy. Oh, by the way, grandma, you just said that my mother should have been beaten to death by your mother-in-law in your era. Then shouldn't you be thankful that your mother-in-law didn't beat you to death?"

"You you you you little bitch."

Jiang Zhengguo: "Mom, Sui Sui is young, don't bother with her."

"What do you mean she's young? She's married and the one she got back from marriage is still young. Just get used to her."

"Mom, don't be angry. Sui Sui, hurry up and apologize to your grandma."

Apologize? There was no way I was going to apologize, not even a little bit.

The old lady said to Jiang Zhengguo angrily: "You are just too used to them. I heard that you drove Jiang Che out."

Yang Huirong said with a bad face: "Mom, you came all the way here just for that illegitimate child?"

"If you don't like a bastard, then don't bother with him. But Jiang Di is the legitimate grandson of our Jiang family. Since you don't like a bastard, that's fine. But the Gu Group, such a big business, shouldn't be inherited by a divorced daughter. Jiang Di has graduated from college now, it's time to let him go to the Gu Group to gain some experience and get familiar with the business."
