"Second brother's wife, you're not telling the truth. Every time Jianjun cooks something delicious, he invites us over."
"You can't talk like that, it's heartless. People should have a sense of justice."
“Mother, I am an outsider. Jianjun is your son, so of course you will side with him. No one will listen to what I say.”
"Second brother's wife, if that's how you put it, then I have nothing more to say to you."
"He is my son, that's true, but the second son is also my son. They are all my children, and I treat them all the same."
"Also, you haven't said how Jianjun and the others look down on you. Tell me, if that's really the case, I'll definitely go and seek justice for you."
"No matter who it is, I am their mother. If I say something, someone will listen. Go ahead and say it, I'm listening."
"Then I'll tell you, Mother, you be the judge. Didn't Zhuzi and the others come back?"
“I think this child is good. I have a niece on my mother’s side. I think this is a good thing.”
"I thought this would be a perfect match, wouldn't it? Well, as soon as I brought it up..."
"Tingting and Jianjun, this couple, are unhappy about it and are giving each other the cold shoulder. Do you think it's really necessary?"
"Isn't this looking down on my family? Isn't this looking down on me? You may be successful now, but aren't we family?"
"Alright, I understand. So you wanted to arrange a marriage for Zhuzi and the others, but Jianjun and the others disagreed, and you got angry, right?"
"Yes, Mother, it's about this. If you're not happy about it, then so be it. We're all family, why put on a show?"
"Second son's wife, although Jianjun is my son, I'm not saying this to favor him."
"Tell me, does the Zhu family even need you to arrange a marriage for them?"
"Isn't this all a matter of reputation? Why bother asking or talking about it?"
"Do you think what I said makes sense? Given their current situation, there are plenty of people willing to come and propose marriage. Just look at how many people Aunt Wang introduced last time."
“Jianjun and the others didn’t agree. Do you think Aunt Wang still went?”
"Anyone can see this. How can you not see it? Are you just thinking that since we're all relatives, you can just let things go smoothly?"
"Second brother's wife, tell me, do you think what I said makes sense?"
"Mother, you're wronging me. I didn't mean that. I was just thinking about strengthening our family ties."
"You know in your heart whether you've thought about it or not, there's no need to say anything more, just think about it carefully."
"Their own parents aren't even worried yet, but you're getting anxious. Do you think that's the right thing to do?"
"Whether this was done right or wrong, you tell me yourself. Think about it carefully."
"Mother, is it because Jianjun's family has become successful that they look down on our family? Everything your third son says is good."
"Yes, we are inferior to him in many ways, but my husband is also your child. You have to treat everyone equally."
“How am I not fair? Think about the division of the family property back then. What did the third son get? Didn’t each of you get more than him?”
"How did we come to this point where we're talking about being fair and impartial? How can people act like that?"
“Mother, you’re wrong. If things aren’t going well for you, shouldn’t we help you out? We should be on equal footing.”
"What, you're happy because we're not doing well, but Jianjun and the others are doing well?"
"You, the second son's wife, if you talk like that, get out of here right now."
"I don't want to see you. What you're saying isn't humane at all. Where is your conscience?"
Just as Guo Ersao was about to say something, she saw her mother-in-law faint, and she was stunned.
"Old woman, old woman, wake up! Da Bao, go and call your third uncle, your grandma has fainted."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away, right now."
"Third Uncle, Third Uncle, are you home?"
"Jianjun, look, why does this sound like Dabao's voice? Why are you so late? Did something happen?"
"Okay, I'll go now. It's cold outside, so don't come out yet."
"Okay, go ahead, but wear a cotton-padded coat."
The children in the family were also woken up, after all, the knocking was quite loud.
"What's wrong? This is Dabao. Why aren't you wearing a cotton-padded coat? Are you freezing?"
"Third Uncle, Grandma has fainted. Hurry to Grandma's house."
"What? You fainted? You go inside first, let's go together, it's so cold."
"Wife, find Guo Dabao a cotton-padded jacket. Mother has fainted. Let's all hurry over there."
"Okay, I'll get up right now and see what happened. Why did I faint?"
"Zhu Zi, go and call them. Your grandma has fainted. Let's get dressed and go quickly. Also, let's inform your two uncles."
"Okay, Mother, I'll go right now."
