Hearing her say this, Xu Moran felt uncomfortable. From what she was saying, just because her son is Zheng Heping, everyone in the world should know him and recognize her as Zheng Heping's mother.
Xu Moran nodded, still harboring her doubts, "Auntie, you've mistaken me for someone else, haven't you?"
As she spoke, she pulled her hand away from Zheng's mother's and started to walk forward.
When Zheng's mother saw Xu Moran about to leave, she suddenly became anxious. "Miss Xu, I'm sure I haven't mistaken you for someone else. Do you know Jiang Moli? I'm Jiang Moli's mother-in-law."
Xu Moran looked at Zheng's mother and suddenly realized, "Oh, it's Aunt Zheng. I remember now."
Seeing that Xu Moran finally recognized her, Zheng's mother temporarily put aside the fact that mentioning Jiang Moli's name was more useful than her son Zheng Heping's name. She grabbed Xu Moran's hand again and said, "Miss Xu, I'm so sorry, but there's something I need your help with."
Even if Zheng's mother didn't say it, Xu Moran knew what kind of help Zheng's mother wanted her to do. Before Zheng's mother could say what the specific help was, she spoke up, "Aunt Zheng, our bureau has regulations that every matter must be handled in accordance with the rules and regulations."
Although Zheng Heping has already given his statement, his butcher husband, who almost had sex with his female subordinate, is unwilling to let him off easily and insists on getting an explanation for the cuckoldry he almost suffered, which is why he can't leave yet.
In the interrogation room, Zheng's mother cursed and swore at everything she should and shouldn't have, but she still couldn't take Zheng Heping away, so she stopped making a scene.
It has to be said that Old Mrs. Zheng truly deserves to be called the person who managed to win over their village chief and become the only person in the entire village to receive the subsidy. She has a fiery temper; if hard tactics don't work, she'll try soft ones.
Suddenly, she thought of Xu Moran, who was also the good friend of Jiang Moli, the daughter-in-law she had always disliked for giving birth to a money-losing child.
In the past, when she first came to Zheng Heping's place from her hometown to enjoy her retirement, Xu Moran would often visit the Zheng family. Sometimes she would bring some vegetables and fruits that she had bought on the way, and sometimes she would take her good-for-nothing granddaughter Zhenzhen to play in the park.
When Xu Moran saw her, he was only superficially polite and did not try to get close to her, which Old Madam Zheng disliked very much.
Given her personality, if she doesn't like a person or thing, others won't like it either. So, she started to stop Jiang Moli and Xu Moran from seeing each other.
Every time Xu Moran went to the Zheng family to find Jiang Moli after that, she would smash bowls and pots and make veiled insults.
Xu Moran was also a sensible person. Gradually, he stopped going to the Zheng family to find Jiang Moli. If he had anything to give to Jiang Moli or wanted to take Zhenzhen out to play, he would call Jiang Moli and ask her to come downstairs.
Although she had no further contact with Zheng's mother, Xu Moran knew about her through Jiang Moli's state and words. Jiang Moli's forbearance, even to the point of being shameless and submissive, not only failed to move her, but instead made her bully Jiang Moli even more.
Once, Jiang Moli was so upset by Zheng's mother that she cried. When she went to Xu Moran to confide in her, she asked her, "Ranran, if you had a mother-in-law like this, what would you do?"
This is a completely non-existent and impossible assumption. More importantly, Xu Moran doesn't even have a marriage partner, so how could she have a mother-in-law?
She only thought about it seriously because the person who asked her was her best friend.
Just thinking about it doesn't really give you a sense of it; you have to put yourself in her shoes and imagine yourself as Jiang Moli.
Finally, after thinking for a long time, she answered Jiang Moli, "If I go against her, I'll get angry at her twice as much if she makes me angry. The worst-case scenario is divorce. But then again, the biggest reason for bad mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships is not that the two women have a hard time getting along, but that the mother-in-law's son and the daughter-in-law's husband are trying to figure out how to mediate the relationship between his mother and wife."
Ultimately, Zheng Heping bears an undeniable responsibility for why Old Mrs. Zheng dared to escalate her bullying of Jiang Moli.
First of all, Zheng Heping, as Jiang Moli's husband, has become increasingly disregarding Jiang Moli since he has made some progress in his career. It is common for him to treat her like a servant at home.
Zheng's mother saw everything. In addition, Zheng Heping was someone she had raised with great difficulty. Now that he had finally made something of himself, he had become another woman's husband. She couldn't help but feel a little unbalanced.
Naturally, she didn't find Jiang Moli pleasing to the eye.
Secondly, Zheng Heping grew up in a relatively isolated environment, and the concept of valuing sons over daughters was more or less ingrained in him. It was only because of his current living environment and social standing that he temporarily forgot about the preference for sons over daughters. However, the arrival of Zheng's mother and her constant nagging in his ear still triggered the ingrained concept of valuing sons over daughters in his bones. Naturally, he didn't feel so comfortable looking at Jiang Moli.
Finally, as Zheng Heping told Xu Moran, his current status and position required a wife who was well-groomed, tastefully dressed, and glamorous, not a slovenly woman like Jiang Moli who was always unkempt and whose hair smelled of cooking oil.
In conclusion, no matter how much Ren Jiangmoli tries to adapt to Zheng Heping and his mother's preferences, they will never find her agreeable.
Xu Moran knew Jiang Moli's feelings for Zheng Heping and also knew that she was unwilling to divorce him, so she didn't mention it at all when she tried to persuade her to divorce Zheng Heping as soon as possible.
Zheng's mother understood the refusal in Xu Moran's words. If it were an ordinary person, they would have let go of Xu Moran long ago. Since it was a matter of rules and regulations, why make things difficult for others? But the person holding Xu Moran's hand was Old Mrs. Zheng, and she was shameless enough to hold on to Xu Moran's hand and refuse to let go.
