Old Mrs. Jiang has been living comfortably these days. Although she didn't move to the second-floor villa, she didn't get any benefits from Su Yuelan. Now that she is retired, she has nothing to do at home every day, so naturally she walks around and chats with the neighbors living in the compound.
There aren't many entertainment activities these days. Basically women just get together to gossip behind people's backs and discuss what's happening in their families.
Old Mrs. Jiang was one of the most active people among them, and she often gossiped about others behind their backs.
Recently, the news of Su Yuelan's divorce from Jiang Wei's family has been a hot topic in the compound. She knows that her daughter-in-law is quiet and has to take care of both the hospital and her family. She is not an employee of the factory, so she has fewer opportunities to interact with people in the family compound.
Su Yuelan is more familiar with the two neighbors who live next door to her.
What kind of person Su Yuelan is, isn't it her old lady who has the final say? Who can Su Yuelan tell? Can she catch someone in the family compound on the street and say that she is not that kind of person? That's impossible.
Her greatest pleasure recently is to gossip about her daughter-in-law behind her back with others, saying that Su Yuelan has been with her son, and that she has been unfilial and disrespectful to her as her mother-in-law over the years. She also said that Su Yuelan can only live a good life relying on her son, and now that she has left Jiang Wei's family, her reputation has been ruined by her, so who would want her?
Old Mrs. Jiang came and sat under the old banyan tree in the center of the compound, and then began to talk about Su Yuelan behind her back with others.
"As for my eldest daughter-in-law, I really can't do anything about her. When my granddaughter was just born, I wanted to take care of her, but she wouldn't let me. She looked down on me for being uneducated. Alas..." said Old Mrs. Jiang.
She looked like a victim. After all, divorce is a shameful thing these days. Add to that the fact that she was disrespectful to her elders and her mother-in-law, and her reputation would be even worse.
Which daughter-in-law doesn’t listen to her mother-in-law?
"I don't know what Yuelan said to my granddaughter. Now my granddaughter is not close to me and has no feelings for me. She also blames me as her grandmother and says that I am biased." Old Mrs. Jiang opened her mouth with a sad look on her face, sad that her granddaughter was not close to her.
The people sitting next to her listened to what Old Lady Jiang said without saying a word. Old Lady Jiang felt it was a little strange. This shouldn't happen. Usually, after she said this, the retired old ladies chatting with her would all follow her in singing a cricket song, saying that Su Yuelan was cunning and had a bad temper. Why didn't she say anything today?
"It doesn't sound like that to me. I heard it say that you disliked Yuelan for giving birth to a girl and wanted to adopt her, but you didn't care about the child. You fed Wei An's maid with breast milk and Yuelan's daughter with rice water. The child cried because of hunger and was infected with pneumonia." The person next to him spoke up.
"Yes, the child almost died. Fortunately, Yuelan worked in a hospital and took the child to the hospital and saved him. Who would dare to give the child to you in this situation? Qijin, what you did was so unkind. It's no wonder that your wife blames you." Another old lady also frowned and spoke.
Old Mrs. Jiang was stunned when she heard what the people around her said. Her face flushed slightly. She felt a little embarrassed to be exposed. She didn't understand how these people knew about this.
Su Yuelan is not familiar with these people.
"And it's not your fault that Yuelan's daughter is not close to you. You are a little too partial. During the Chinese New Year, you give big red envelopes with several dollars to your second child, but only a few cents to Yuelan's daughter. Sometimes you don't give her any money and just let her stand. Who can bear this kind of injustice?" The old lady from before spoke again.
