Old Mrs. Li was crying so hard that her nose and tears were streaming down her face. Her old age made it easy for her to arouse sympathy. Bai Xiangru had specially changed into a new dress today in order to get the marriage certificate. Her hair was combed very neatly, and it was white and clean. Compared with Old Mrs. Li's sloppy appearance, she looked even more pitiful, and she herself was hateful.
"How can you treat an old lady like this?"
"That's right. She's still someone's daughter-in-law. Her conscience has been eaten by a dog."
"Look at her flashy attire. You can tell she's not someone who will keep quiet. She can treat an old lady like this in public. Who knows what kind of mischief she'll do behind her back."
Each and every word was an explicit and implicit curse against Bai Xiangru. Bai Xiangru turned around and was about to leave, not wanting to say anything to Old Lady Li. She had a child now, and with so many people around, if they crowded in, she was afraid that the child would be hurt. This was her child, her most precious, and she had already lost one child, and she couldn't let this child get hurt again.
However, someone grabbed her wrist directly and held it very tightly, which hurt her.
"You can't leave. Make sure you explain yourself first."
The others also joined in the commotion, shouting that they needed to make things clear. What did they mean by just leaving now? They pushed the old lady down and left her there, letting her go whenever she wanted. Is there any room for reason in this world?
Seeing that more and more people were coming, Bai Xiangru ignored the pain on her wrist and struggled from time to time, but the man held her tighter, as if he wanted to crush her bones.
At this moment, with a snap, the person holding Bai Xiangru's wrist suddenly let go, and the back of his hand turned red.
"Why did you hit me?"
The woman who thought she was holding Bai Xiangru's hand was beaten for no reason. How could she feel comfortable? Her voice was sharp and thin, full of anger.
Before Bai Xiangru could react, she felt a warmth on her shoulder. She looked up and saw Fang Yuan, wearing a mask, standing in front of her at some point, shielding her from all the dangers, the unfriendly looks of those people, and their curses and insults.
"Oh……"
Fang Yuan sneered and looked at the man who had just grabbed Bai Xiangru as if he were a dead person.
"Why are you asking me?"
"Why would I hit you if you hadn't grabbed my wife? She killed your whole family in broad daylight and burned down your house. What are you doing grabbing her for? You deserve to be beaten."
What kind of idiot is this? He grabbed someone's wife and didn't let her husband beat her. Fortunately, she was a woman. If she was a man, he would not have beaten her, but kicked her.
The woman who had her wrist slapped became even more angry when she heard this.
"So you are the unfilial son. Are you still sitting on the ground without your mother? No wonder you have such a wicked daughter-in-law. It turns out that even your son is not a good thing."
Old Mrs. Li was howling very diligently, especially when she heard that these people were on her side, she howled even more wholeheartedly. But who knew that a man would come and say that Bai Xiangru was his wife.
Old Mrs. Li was so angry that her chest hurt.
You are such a slutty Bai Xiangru! You are a woman of loose morals and an unfaithful woman. You even cheated on her son.
"My mother?"
When Fang Yuan saw the old lady Li sitting on the ground, he recognized her at once. How could he not remember such an unreasonable old lady? She used to call her a fucking husband and a bitch all the time. How could such a well-behaved child like Mengmeng have such a grandmother? It can be said that Mengmeng's death was caused by this old woman.
If she had let Mengmeng get checked and treated, it would have been just a minor surgical procedure. But in the end, because of her and that small clinic, the child's life was lost.
So, not only Bai Xiangru hated him, he also hated him.
He had also held and saved that child.
Thinking of this, Fang Yuan couldn't help but sneer, "My mother died of complications during childbirth. I've lived for almost thirty years, and this is the first time I've realized I actually have an extra mother."
"You tell me..." He looked down at me, his eyes as if he was looking at an ant. "When did you give birth to me? Tell me, tell me!"
Old Mrs. Li licked her lips but couldn't utter a word. How could she not know whether she had multiple sons or not?
"Oh……"
Fang Yuan glanced at the people around him who had just claimed to be righteous. "You can fight for justice and sympathize with the weak, but is your sympathy just based on the words of others?"
"What others say is what it is. Who do you think you are? The police are messengers of justice. Even if they are police, they still need to rely on evidence."
"Did you see what she was wearing?"
Fang Yuan pulled Bai Xiangru in front of him and placed his hands on her shoulders.
"Everything she wore, whether it was clothes or shoes, was from international brands, each piece costing over a thousand yuan. He then grabbed Bai Xiangru's wrist, where she was wearing a green jade bracelet."
"This one, a top-grade imperial green one, was passed down from my aunt to my daughter-in-law. It costs tens of millions. And that thing on the ground, can she still be her mother-in-law?"
"With a fortune like hers, she's bound to marry someone rich or noble. Her mother-in-law must also be noble and elegant, understanding and caring. She can't be like a mad dog, biting everyone she catches."
The more fiercely the words were spoken and the more harshly the curses were hurled at the people, the more their faces were burning, and they all wished they could just disappear right there.
They didn't see it clearly just now, but now when they look carefully, they find that Bai Xiangru is very different in both appearance and clothing. It is obvious that the clothes she wears cannot be made of cheap material, and the bracelet on her wrist cannot be made of glass.
Glass cannot have such gloss and transparency.
Oh, and she was wearing a watch. It seemed to be a famous brand, quite expensive.
Bai Xiangru couldn't help but shrink her body again. She felt that the way these people looked at her was like a dog seeing a bone, as if they wanted to come forward and tear a piece of her flesh off.
"You're not alone now."
Fang Yuan whispered in her ear, "You still have me. I'm your husband and I support you unconditionally. You also have so many family members. None of them are ordinary or easy to mess with. So, don't be afraid. She's just a shrew. Why should you be afraid of her?"
"This person is not a human being. She is taking advantage of her age. Why bother with her? Next time I see her, I will beat her up."
