Chapter 121: Continue the unfinished business

Old Lady Liu staggered back two steps, almost out of breath from anger. She stepped forward and grabbed her son, crying: "Son, look, your subordinate's wife is bullying your mother like this, do you want to do anything about it?"

Liu Caiqing also had an opinion on Mingzhu's words at this time, and snorted unhappily: "Mingzhu, watch your words."

Jiang Duo stood beside Mingzhu and said coldly: "I think you should be the one to watch out for."

Liu Caiqing really couldn't stand Jiang Duo's aloof look. He was a person of lower rank than himself, so why was he pretending?

"Jiang Duo! Is this the attitude you should have towards your superior?"

Jiang Duo didn't show any humility or fear on his face. He looked at the other person coldly, which made the other person feel oppressed. "My husband saved your wife's life, but I didn't even hear a word of thanks. You scolded me. What's the reason?"

Seeing this, Wang Cuiju said immediately: "Yes, Captain Liu, we just saw that my sister-in-law was dying. She was saved by Mingzhu. She is the lifesaver of your family! You should thank her..."

Liu Caiqing was furious. Who asked her to save him?

He wished that this old and ugly woman would die soon!

Old Lady Liu was also a smart woman. She didn't want her son to thank Mingzhu, the little bitch, so she simply covered her head and cried out, "Son, no, no, I'm dizzy because of that little bitch. Help me go home and have a rest!"

Liu Caiqing walked to Old Lady Liu, supported her, turned around and scolded Su Guimei who was still half leaning on Mingzhu's arms, "Since you're awake, hurry home." After that, the two left first.

Seeing that Su Guimei was fine, everyone persuaded her a few times and went back first.

Only Mingzhu, Jiang Duo and... the person involved were left under the tree.

Mingzhu helped Su Guimei up and was about to say something when Su Guimei spoke first, but her voice was so weak and tinny: "You don't have to save me. They will be happy only if I die..."

Mingzhu knew that Su Guimei drank pesticides and then hanged herself with the determination to die.

If the Liu family continued to treat her like this, there would definitely be a next time, and then her work tonight would be in vain.

She asked Jiang Duo to go back first. She supported Su Guimei and walked forward, saying solemnly: "Sister-in-law, your life is so precious, why don't you know how to cherish it?"

Su Guimei looked at her sideways, "I am a worthless life. I am not valued in my natal family, and in my husband's family... I can't have children. Now I am old and ugly, and I am abandoned by others. They will be happy if I die, and I can put an end to it all."

"Why are you old? You are only in your twenties, and what you said is not right. Your life is your own and you must cherish it. You even have the courage to die, so why don't you have the courage to live?"

"Don't forget, when you got married, you were also a beautiful young lady. You were tortured by them into this state. The more they wish you would die so that they can make room for you and marry someone else, the more you must not take advantage of their wishes. You must live well and beautifully to annoy them."

Su Guimei had lived for more than 20 years, and for the first time she knew that there were such brave women in the world.

And this whole day, this girl had been pissing off her powerful mother-in-law!

She really felt...admired her in her heart, but she - did not have the courage, nor the ability.

Mingzhu looked at her as she was looking at her but didn't know what to say, and smiled: "I saved your life, and now half of it belongs to me, so you have no right to hurt yourself anymore. If you don't mind, I will recognize you as my sister, and if they bully you again, just run to my house and I will protect you."

The words "I will protect you" made Su Guimei's eyes redden immediately, and she choked and cried. These were the warmest words she had ever heard in her life, "How could I dislike you, you should be the one who dislikes me."

Mingzhu raised her hand to wipe her tears, "I don't dislike you, we are both women, and women should protect women. From now on, I will call you sister."

Su Guimei nodded vigorously.

The two of them arrived at Su Guimei's door. Her door was not locked but closed, which showed that they were malicious towards Su Guimei.

Mingzhu deliberately said loudly towards the courtyard: "Sister, we are family now. If someone bullies you again, just shout loudly. I will scold the old ones and sue the young ones. You are afraid of them, but I am not. I am idle and have plenty of time to waste with them."

Su Guimei was inexplicably moved when she heard Mingzhu say this. Even if she would be beaten in a while, she was satisfied with these words.

After watching Su Guimei return home and making sure that there was no movement in the house, Mingzhu turned around and walked back to her own door with a relaxed pace.

Jiang Duo was waiting for her there. Mingzhu ran over and threw herself into her arms. She tilted her head and smiled: "Husband, I saved another life today. Isn't that great?"

"You are great."

Mingzhu's voice became more and more coquettish: "Is there a reward?"

It was late at night and there was no one in the alley. Jiang Duo looked at her in the breeze. His mind was in turmoil again. He lowered his head to kiss her, but Mingzhu raised her hand to cover her lips: "No, no, no, I just gave Sister Guimei artificial respiration. My mouth is not clean..."

But before she finished speaking, Jiang Duo had already pulled her hand away and lowered his head to kiss her.

His wife saved someone else's life and was the cleanest girl in the world.

The two kissed for a while, but Mingzhu still felt that there was a taste in her mouth, which was not good.

She took the initiative to end the kiss, smiling coquettishly: "Okay, okay, let's go home, I need to take a shower, there is vomit on my body."

Jiang Duo nodded, "I'll boil some water for you."

"Thank you, husband, you've worked hard!"

The two walked in together, Jiang Duo boiled the water, Mingzhu pulled Xiao Ma Zha to sit aside, and told her about her and Su Guimei becoming sisters, Jiang Duo did not object.

Mingzhu said: "Liu's rank is higher than yours, are you sure this really has no effect on you?"

"Don't worry, it has no effect, saving people is a good thing, do whatever you want."

With Jiang Duo's approval, Mingzhu felt relieved.

After Jiang Duo finished boiling the water, he avoided the door and went out first.

Mingzhu simply wiped it, opened the door and told Jiang Duo outside that she was done.

After Jiang Duo entered the room, he whispered, "I'm sweating from walking back and forth just now. I'm going to go take a shower."

Mingzhu nodded with a smile, and her voice was a little teasing, "I'll wait for you~"

Jiang Duo thought of the heat just now, his Adam's apple moved slightly, and he nodded.

Mingzhu went back to her room and lay on the bed, listening to the noise outside the courtyard. When Jiang Duo came back, she would continue what she had just done...
