Moreover, she subconsciously believed that Ye Yong was dull, honest, and easy to manipulate; Du Shi was stubborn; Old Lady Ye was cowardly; and Old Man Ye had some brains but was also a bit arrogant. Tie Niu's wife and her husband were just two simpletons.
As long as you take the initiative and intimidate them, you can control them.
Little did I know that I had overlooked Ye Caiping as a variable!
She truly lives up to her reputation as a wicked woman who dared to break her mother-in-law's leg; she is indeed cunning and mean-spirited!
Xiuxiu's mother's eyes darted around, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Then what do you want?"
“Apologize!” Ye Caiping said sternly.
“Yes, apologize! We didn’t eat at your house, we don’t owe you anything.” Tie Niu’s wife stepped forward.
She had just felt something was off; they hadn't done anything, so why did they suddenly have to make a solemn oath?
Now that Ye Caiping has explained it this way, I understand.
They were confused and bewildered by Xiuxiu's mother's unreasonable behavior.
Xiuxiu's mother was so angry that her liver hurt. She looked at Ye Yong and said, "Ye Yong, are you just going to watch your aunt be bullied by them? You even said you cared about my Xiuxiu!"
Ye Yong frowned: "Auntie, if it were just me, I would take it even if you hit me for Xiuxiu's sake. But my mother, my grandparents, my aunt, and my two aunts have no obligation to suffer for me."
"I've already made my stance clear. Even if it means death, I won't tell anyone what happened today. But my aunt and the others are none of my business."

"Are you going to apologize or not? Oh, of course, it's okay if you don't. Anyway, I don't have many good points, except that I have a big mouth and I chatter on to everyone I meet." Ye Caiping smiled.
Xiuxiu's mother was so angry that she felt dizzy.
This time, she truly understood her situation.
Thinking it over, she took a deep breath and reluctantly began to speak:
“Caiping…and my sisters-in-law, today’s matter…is because I was too worried. After all, this is a major event in Xiuxiu’s life, so I was a little anxious and said the wrong thing. Please forgive me.”
"And... please, please don't tell anyone about Xiuxiu's matter..."
Tie Niu's wife and Zhu Zi's wife snorted, which was taken as an agreement.
Old Man Ye said in a deep voice, "Since your family has no intention of forming a marriage alliance, let's just forget about it. Although my family is poor, we would never do such a despicable thing."
Xiuxiu's mother breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at Ye Caiping.
Ye Caiping scoffed, "Aren't you leaving yet? Whether this secret can be kept depends on your sincerity. Pray to the gods and hope we won't let it slip."
Xiuxiu's mother was so angry that she felt a sharp pain in her liver, but there was nothing she could do, so she turned around and fled in panic.
