"Mom, what are you saying?" Qi Ran didn't think Old Lady Li was talking to her; she thought...
It was said to Chen Qianqian inside the room.
After all, she's going to open a small shop. She's not the one who's embarrassing the Lu family.
Qi Ran completely ignored what Old Lady Li said, treating her like air, which thoroughly enraged Old Lady Li.
The Lu family hasn't even separated yet, and Qi Ran already doesn't respect her as their mother. If she had given birth to a grandchild for the Lu family, that would be one thing, but she hasn't contributed anything to the Lu family, so what's with her arrogance?
Old Mrs. Li gave Old Man Lu a look, and Old Man Lu knew it was time for him to step in again.
Wait.
Whenever there was heavy work to be done at home, his grandmother would always leave it to him.
Old Lu picked up a broom from the side and struck Qi Ran with it, but he held back because Qi Ran was a woman.
If he had hit his son with the same force he usually does, the broom would probably have broken by now...
Even so, Qi Ran was still knocked to the ground by Old Man Lu's blow, clutching her waist and crying out, "Dad, what are you doing!"
Old Mrs. Li walked up to her and sneered, "Now you know what pain is? You acted like a big shot outside today..."
Why doesn't it hurt when the horn is blaring?
Qi Ran was completely bewildered. It turned out that Old Lady Li was really talking about him, and was even siding with Shen Qianqian.
she.
What happened?
Shouldn't she be Mom's most beloved daughter-in-law?
When will it be Shen Qianqian's turn?
“Mom, you said it was shameful for my fifth sister-in-law to run a small shop. I told the villagers about it just to get them to object so that my fifth sister-in-law would back down.”
After Qi Ran finished speaking, Old Lady Li picked up a branch and whipped Qi Ran again: "What nonsense are you talking about! When did I ever say that running a small shop was shameful?"
She still has to rely on running a small shop to make ends meet!
Thinking of the money, Old Lady Li was filled with anger and resentment. She lashed Qi Ran with her whip again.
Qi Ran was truly speechless with bitterness: "Mom, why did you hit me?!"
Old Lady Li didn't hold back at all; with two lashes, Qi Ran could feel her skin being torn open, and she felt waves of stinging pain.
The second wife's family, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, they hadn't gone up to agree with their sister-in-law, otherwise they would be the ones taking the blame for the mother's outburst.
My mother's mood is as unpredictable as the weather.
After a long day of work, Shen Qianqian was starving. She thought it was time to go out for a meal, but when she opened the door, she saw Qi Ran lying on the ground clutching his back and the fierce-looking Old Lady Li.
"Mom, what are you doing?"
"You've come at the right time. Go and call the third and fourth wives here. I need to discuss something with them."
After Shen Qianqian summoned the third and fourth wives, Old Madam Li counted everyone present, cleared her throat, and said to the entire Lu family, "Listen up, all of you! From now on, I'll be working with Fifth Brother's wife. Anyone in our family who speaks ill of us will face my wrath!"
After saying that, she seemed still not satisfied and snapped the branch in her hand in two.
Qi Ran, harboring resentment, said unwillingly, "Mom, why are you suddenly so supportive of my fifth brother's wife? Tell me honestly, did you give all the family's money to my fifth brother's family for their affairs?"
Startled by her words, Old Lady Li hurriedly retorted, "Of course not!"
But all the eyes of the Lu family were still on her, and this ignorant Qi Ran continued to speak:
"If you hadn't taken it, given how much you disliked your fifth sister-in-law before, why would you suddenly be so supportive?"
"If she didn't take it, why would you let your family eat vegetarian food for several days in a row?"
"You're just biased towards the fifth branch of the family!"
Qi Ran felt wronged. This old lady Li only cared about having a son and making money. She used to treat her so well, like her own mother.
But Old Mrs. Li, once her child was gone, immediately changed to a mean-spirited person! Now she's determined to drag her whole family into judging this wicked mother-in-law!
The second wife's family immediately realized something was wrong, as it involved their entire family's savings. This was no longer a matter for them to pretend they knew nothing and continue to be cowards.
“Mom, what my sister-in-law said is true. Why are you suddenly so biased towards the fifth branch of the family?” Chen Qin said.
At a crucial moment, Lu Yunfeng uttered a sentence that was unanimously agreed upon by both the first and second wives.
talk:
"Mom, if you really didn't give the money to Lao Wu's family, why don't you take it out and show it to everyone now!"
After he finished speaking, everyone's expectant gazes fell on Old Lady Li.
But for her, it felt like a slow, agonizing torture, cutting into her flesh. 800 yuan! How could she possibly pull that out of thin air!
Grandma Li made up her mind and decided to simply shift the focus. Anyway, Shen Qianqian was a sharp-tongued girl, so she could just throw the problem at her.
"Fifth son's wife, come out and explain!"
Old Mrs. Li's words were resounding and carried an unquestionable authority.
But Shen Qianqian just wouldn't fall for that.
Shen Qianqian crossed her arms and smiled, "Mom, what do you want me to explain? I had no idea you put the money there. Do you think money can just grow legs and run to me?"
"Besides, my sister-in-law has already spread the word throughout the village that you took all the family's money to engage in speculation and profiteering, so even if you prove it now, it's useless, since your reputation in the village is already completely ruined."
Grandma Li realized that Qi Ran had done all the nice and bad things!
She portrays herself as a pitiful person in public, while stirring up conflicts at home.
The anger in Old Mrs. Li's heart had completely spread throughout her chest: "Look what you've done! Is this how you ruin my reputation? Do you have no credibility with me as your mother at all?"
"How could I have a wife like you! Whoever marries you is doomed!" The same words are now being used on different people.
Shen Qianqian couldn't help but sigh that fate's boomerang always eventually returns to its source. "Mom? What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"
Lu Yuncheng, who had just arrived at his doorstep, was terrified by Old Lady Li's angry shout.
Alright.
Old Mrs. Li pointed at Qi Ran and said with exasperation, "Ask your wife what she's been saying about me outside!"
Lu Yuncheng booed.
He heard about it on his way back, and initially thought it was just some ignorant person spreading rumors, but it turned out to be his own wife spreading them.
This really shows a complete disregard for Mom's and the family's reputation.
Lu Yuncheng patted the back of Old Lady Li to help her sit down, then helped her sit in a chair before finally walking over to Qi Ran.
Qi Ran thought her support had finally returned, and said to him in a coquettish tone, "You have no idea, Mom just hit me so hard."
“That’s what you should do,” Lu Yuncheng said.
Qi Ran: ??
Lu Yuncheng continued, "Quickly apologize to Mom."
