Chapter 13 A head-on confrontation won't work; she needs to change her strategy.



Before Yu Mowan could answer, Yun Yun shielded her behind her.

"Mom, don't go too far. Wanwan only cares about you and doesn't want you to scold her."

Yun Yun couldn't help but rage.

Fu Rong was targeting her, and she could tolerate it for Shu Chuxiao's sake, but criticizing Yu Mowan...

Sorry, she couldn't stand it.

Fu Rong's chest heaved with anger. Just as she was about to confront Yun Yun as she always did, her five grandsons stepped forward and said, "Grandma, our little sister is timid. Please don't raise your voice too much and scare her."

"Is there any rule that says if Xueyin is clumsy, her younger sister has to be clumsy too?"

This is what Shu Lingyin said.

"Xueyin, is Second Brother right?"

He also asked about Shu Xueyin.

Upon hearing this, Shu Xueyin almost bit her lip until it bled.

Call her by her full name; if her name is Yu Mowan, then call her "younger sister."

Is all her years of trying to please someone less valuable than Yu Mowan, a younger sister she just recognized?

The jealousy in her heart was raging.

"Xueyin, speak."

Shu Lingyin emphasized her words.

Shu Xueyin pretended to be frightened and shrank into Fu Rong's arms.

Fu Rong was furious. She grabbed the cane that was lying nearby and was about to hit Shu Lingyin when a slender hand stopped her in mid-air.

"Grandma, just talk. Hitting someone will only hurt our harmony."

Yu Mowan said in a calm tone.

Fu Rong's eyes widened in anger, and she said irritably, "You shameless hussy, are you trying to teach me how to do things?"

"Old woman, who are you calling a slut?"

Yun Yun, fiercely protective of her child, retorted angrily, "If you utter another word of abuse, believe me, I'll kick your precious darling out of the Shu family!"

As she spoke, she pointed at Shu Xueyin and said harshly, "At your age, do you think you can protect her for a few more years? If I were you, I would have to keep a low profile for her sake, instead of acting like a bully in front of me."

She could tolerate it before because of Shu Chuxiao, but now that Fu Rong has crossed her line, she shouldn't blame her for being impolite.

Shu Xueyin, who was being pointed at, trembled inwardly; she was truly frightened now.

She thought that by playing the weak card and saying some ambiguous things, she could achieve the same effect as before. Little did she expect that it would provoke Yun Yun into acting like a protective mother hen, tearing each other apart.

This is not the effect she wanted.

"Grandma, Mom, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, please don't be angry with me."

As Shu Xueyin's mind raced, she immediately apologized to ease the tension, saying, "I shouldn't have said I was stupid. If you want to blame someone, blame me. Let's not hurt our harmony."

Seeing her like this, Fu Rong became even angrier and said, "Xueyin, don't apologize..."

"Grandma, please don't be angry, okay?"

Shu Xueyin's eyes were filled with tears as she looked timidly at Fu Rong. "I'm so scared that you and Mom are arguing. I don't want this to happen."

She underestimated Yun Yun's protectiveness, which is why she chose the wrong approach.

If we want to find the right opportunity to get rid of Yu Mowan, we need to think of another way.

Just as Yun Yun said, Fu Rong is old and can't protect her for many more years. If she wants to rely on the Shu family as a powerful backer, she must occupy an important position in the hearts of Yun Yun, Shu Lingyi, and the other two.

As long as they like her, Yu Mowan can't make any waves.

Seeing her like this, Fu Rong immediately suppressed her burning anger and hugged her to comfort her.

"Don't be afraid, Yinyin, Grandma isn't angry anymore."

Fu Rong said gently.

Shu Xueyin nodded obediently.

She looked up at Fu Rong through her tearful eyes, her voice gentle as water: "Grandma, my sister spent so much time making this gift for you by hand, please accept it."

"good."

Fu Rong agreed, extending her hand to Yu Mowan as if bestowing a favor: "Give it to me."

Seeing this, Yun Yun felt angry again.

What does this old hag think her daughter's work is? Something cheap that can be trampled on at will?

Just as she was about to tell Yu Mowan to stop giving it to her, Yu Mowan gave her a wink, the meaning of which was very clear: tell her to calm down.

Yun took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

Yu Mowan smiled and handed the emerald heart to Fu Rong, but the moment she let go, the heart happily fell from Fu Rong's hand.

"Grandma, I'm sorry, my hand slipped."

Yu Mowan looked at Fu Rong with an innocent expression and said.

Fu Rong's usually well-maintained face suddenly contorted into a ferocious expression. She gritted her teeth and said, "Yu Mowan, are you doing this on purpose?"

"No."

Yu Mowan looked even more innocent. "I can swear to God."

"you……"

Fu Rong was furious.

Shu Chuxiao, who had just finished his work and returned, immediately sensed something was off in the atmosphere of the hall and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"

"Ask your good daughter what she has done?"

Fu Rong, the villain, filed a false accusation first.

Before even asking Yu Mowan, Shu Chuxiao immediately defended her, saying, "Mom, Wanwan is well-behaved and sensible. She's too busy being filial to you to bother with anything else. Why would she deliberately make you angry?"

"You mean I'm making trouble out of nothing?"

Fu Rong glared, her voice becoming rough with anger.

Is this something a son would say?

"Mom, that's not what I meant."

Shu Chuxiao's expression remained unchanged. "I just think Wanwan is well-behaved, considerate, and likable."

"you……"

"Grandma, my head hurts so much."

Shu Xueyin raised her hand to cover her forehead and said in a weak voice.

Fu Rong was extremely anxious and had no time to argue with Shu Chuxiao.

"Yinyin, what's wrong? Why do you have a headache?"

She asked with concern.

Shu Xueyin shook her head: "I don't know. I think I'll go upstairs and rest for a while. Maybe I'll feel better."

"Grandma will help you up."
