"Jiang Zao!"
Lan Yi stopped Jiang Zao and Fu Yanci when they went out for lunch.
She looked much more haggard than before.
It's clear that she's suffered a lot during these past few days of detention.
"Jiang Zao! I'm your own mother, and you actually had me arrested and detained! Do you know how I've been living in there these past few days?"
Lan Yi glared at Jiang Zao, her expression suggesting she wished she could strangle her right then and there.
Although Fu Yanci's intelligence is only that of a child, he still knows how to protect his wife.
He gripped Jiang Zao's hand tightly. "Mother-in-law, you're so fierce! The person who arrested you was a police officer, not your wife. Why are you blaming your wife?"
"Shut up!" Lan Yi yelled at him as well, seemingly so angry that she had lost her temper. "What business is it of yours what my daughter and I are having?"
Jiang Zao shielded Fu Yanci behind her, saying, "Mom, you'd better think carefully about the consequences of talking to him like that. The cooperation between the Fu family and the Xia family hasn't officially started yet. If you're affected by this, do you think you can still live the carefree life of a wealthy wife in the Xia family as before?"
Lan Yi regretted it.
But words spoken are like water spilled; she couldn't bring herself to apologize again, so she could only vent all her anger on Jiang Zao.
"Jiang Zao, if it weren't for the Xia family's connections, how could you have possibly climbed up to the Fu family? The Xia family has raised you for years, and you still want to ruin the cooperation between the two families? How can you be so heartless? You ungrateful wretch!"
Since there were no outsiders around, Lan Yi didn't need to care about her image and completely revealed her true nature in front of Jiang Zao.
Jiang Zao said expressionlessly, "Are you done talking nonsense?"
Lan Yi: "?"
"You think you can act all high and mighty just because you married into the Fu family, daring to talk to me like that?"
Jiang Zao laughed instead of getting angry: "You're absolutely right. I've already married into the Fu family, how can I not be independent? As for the Xia family supporting me, didn't we settle everything on the day I returned home last time? Mom, are you going through menopause and starting to forget things? If that's the case, you should take care of yourself. I've heard that women in menopause age very quickly. What if Uncle Xia loses interest in you and finds someone younger, gentler, and more understanding? Then your good days will truly be over."
"Aci, let's go." Jiang had already left with Fu Yanci, not caring how angry Lan Yi would be.
Over two lifetimes, she had exhausted all her maternal and daughterly affection for Lan Yi. In this life, her bottom line was to give Lan Yi a small amount of alimony every month within the legal limits, when no one else wanted her.
When Fu Yanci got home that evening, he started complaining again.
“Mom, you have no idea how fierce my mother-in-law is. My wife must have been abused before. She’s not a good mother.” Fu Yanci kept repeating the same few sentences.
The key point emphasized is that Jiang Zao must have been abused.
"No wonder my wife is so thin. She must not have been eating well when she was at the Xia family's house. I could hardly feel any flesh when I held her..."
Jiang Zao quickly covered Fu Yanci's mouth.
This child really says everything.
Fu Yanci turned his head and looked at Jiang Zao with a confused expression.
It was as if it was asking, "Why can't I speak?"
Madam Fu and the maid beside her couldn't help but smile.
The young couple seems to have a really good relationship.
That night, Fu Yanci refused to sleep and kept asking Jiang Zaoxia how her family was abusing her.
He would also touch Jiang Zao's body from time to time.
"I was right, honey, you're so thin. But it's okay, I'll talk to Mom and ask her to tell the kitchen to make you more of your favorite foods every day, so you can get chubby!"
Jiang Zao, who had never been in such close contact with a man in her two lifetimes, suddenly felt her cheeks burning.
Where should this child put his hands?
They really need to be educated.
Jiang Zao immediately pulled Fu Yanci to sit down and told him very seriously, "Aci, men can't just touch women. If you do that to someone else, you'll be arrested and locked up by the police. Then you won't have any toys to play with, no snacks to eat, and no cartoons or lollipops."
Fu Yanci was terrified; it was so scary.
Then he thought, "But my wife isn't just anyone."
Jiang Zao: "..."
She was speechless.
Fu Yanci, like a curious child, kept asking, "Will I get arrested by the police for touching my wife?"
Jiang Zao simply couldn't bring herself to deceive a child: "...No."
"Yay!" Fu Yanci was very happy and jumped into Jiang Zao's arms, hugging her tightly.
Before I knew it, it was already 9:30.
Normally, Fu Yanci would have been asleep by this time.
But today he's still hugging his wife.
bite!
Fu Yanci's phone rang.
He couldn't bear to let Jiang Zao go.
"You have a message on your phone," Jiang Zao reminded him.
Fu Yanci rubbed his head against Jiang Zao and said coquettishly, "Wife smells so good. Wife, can you tell for me? It must be Jin Feng's nephew. No one else has sent me messages except him."
Helpless, Jiang Zao reached out and hooked Fu Yanci's phone over.
"Hmm? It's an email."
Given Fu Yanci's status, any emails he exchanges must contain important information; she'd better not look at them.
Fu Yanci tilted his head. "What's an email?"
Jiang Zao hesitated again.
This child is so adorable right now, what if he misses some important news?
"Aci, can I take a look at your email?" If you ask for the other party's permission, it doesn't count as snooping.
Fu Yanci naturally wouldn't refuse, "Okay."
