"Finally showing your true colors? Why don't you stop pretending?" The woman sneered.
"Wu Xiaohong, you need to get this straight. It's you, as the daughter-in-law, who is disrespecting your mother-in-law."
In the old society, a woman like you would have been divorced by us long ago.
Seeing that she was unmoved by his words, the old woman simply tore off her mask of hypocrisy and swaggered over to sit down in a chair.
He began to berate his daughter-in-law with great fervor.
The woman's expression grew increasingly grim. She glanced at the man beside her and asked, "He Ming, what do you have to say about this?"
The man looked troubled. "Xiao Hong, please forgive your mother."
She's just an old woman from the countryside, she's never seen much of the world, don't bother arguing with her.
For my sake, let's just let this go.
It wasn't easy for my mom to raise me.
She finally came to town to enjoy a few days of peace and quiet, and you want to send her back to the village? How can I possibly accept that?
Upon hearing this, the three people in the next bed all looked at the man with disdain.
It's true what they say, you don't feel the pain until you're cut yourself!
If he hadn't arrived in time and given the old lady such a hard time, the mother and daughter might already be... dead.
"Hehe, you feel bad about it?"
I'm about to die, and you're still worried about saving face.
You only know that your mother has it tough, but does that mean I have it tough?
I don't even want to talk about her. She said she came to help take care of the children and look after me.
But what happened? After she came to our house, she didn't even bother to pick up the soy sauce bottle when it fell over.
Not only do I have to go to work and take care of the child all day, but I also have to take care of her when I get home.
And all she does is go out every day and gossip about this family and that family.
Everyone in our alley knows about this.
"If you don't believe me, go out and ask around, and see if I'm lying." The woman looked at him with a face full of disappointment.
It's only when something really happens that you realize what kind of person you married.
He used to seem honest and simple, and everyone said he was a man who would live a simple life, but now it seems that he is cold-hearted at heart.
The old lady didn't care; since things had already escalated to a point of no return, she simply decided to ignore it all.
"What's wrong with me going out to chat with people?"
I raised him from infancy, changing his diapers and feeding him every drop of urine, and nurtured him into a handsome young man.
Now that he's successful, he should be filial to me.
You heartless woman, you just can't stand seeing my son treat me well.
Should I divorce him?
"Tch, you're a woman, once you're divorced you're just a used woman, who would want you?"
That old woman has a really foul mouth.
To be honest, after hearing what she said, not only her daughter-in-law, but even they all wanted to beat her up.
"Wang Cuihua, you old slut, who are you talking about?" A loud curse came from outside the door.
Upon hearing this voice, both the mother and son stiffened.
The woman on the bed suddenly smiled and, choking back tears, called out to the door, "Mom, brother, sister-in-law, you're here."
"We heard you gave birth, so we came to see you."
A slightly plump old lady walked in. She had short hair that reached her ears, wore a well-fitting dark blue outfit, and was carrying a net bag of apples.
Behind the old woman were two men and two women, all looking at the mother and son with hostile expressions.
The old lady first nodded to the woman on the hospital bed.
Then, he took two apples out of the net bag and placed them on the cabinet next to Su Nianxue's bed.
"I'm sorry, my daughter is a bit disappointing."
This noise has been bothering you all for so long.
Don't worry, I'll take care of it right away; it won't disturb your rest.
She then looked at Gu Yanbai, "Young man, thank you for speaking up for my daughter this afternoon."
Their family has connections at the hospital, and someone told them about it as soon as they arrived.
They came with a belly full of anger, and now they saw that old woman humiliating her daughter like that.
Can she tolerate this?
What are you thinking about?
Su Nianxue quickly waved her hand, resolutely refusing the apple, "Auntie, no need, you do your thing, we're fine."
"Hey, take this, consider it my apology and thanks." The old woman smiled at them and strode away.
Su Nianxue developed a fondness for this sensible old woman.
She hurriedly sat up in bed, wondering how she was going to deal with that old hag.
Gu Yanbai understood what she meant and immediately stood the pillow up, indicating that she should lean against it.
As expected, the old woman did not disappoint them. She walked over, grabbed the old woman's few sparse hairs, and covered her mouth.
"Come on, let's go outside and talk this out. Let's not disturb their peace." The old woman dragged her away, followed by two middle-aged women.
He Ming tried to stop them, but his two strong brothers-in-law flanked him from both sides.
"He Ming, what's wrong?"
"I heard it outside the door just now, you want to divorce my sister, right?" the brother-in-law said lazily.
"No, no, that's not true. It was Xiaohong who brought it up, and I didn't agree," He Ming stammered.
"But we've been listening outside for ages."
You said your mother raised you with great difficulty, and you brought her to your home to enjoy a life of leisure?
Since your mother has it so hard, why don't you go out and help her?
After all, my wife and sister-in-law are a bit rough with each other.
"Your mom is probably no match for the two of them." The brother-in-law added casually.
"I..." He wanted to plead for his mother, but he never felt confident when facing his wife's family.
