It was the day after tomorrow that Xueli was to be wed.
Relatives from afar would start arriving tomorrow to give their gifts, and the neighbors would come over to help out with preparations.
Yet, at this crucial moment, such a serious problem had arisen; how could she not be furious!
“Mother, what exactly happened?” Zhou Xuennian, seeing that his mother’s expression didn’t seem to be feigned, suppressed his annoyance and asked.
Old Lady Zhou huffed, “Today Ying Mei came to give a present, wearing a jade hairpin.
Your wife, with her shallow self-control, snatched it from her, red-eyed!”
Zhou Xuennian chuckled awkwardly, “Could there be some misunderstanding in this?”
“Misunderstanding?” Old Lady Zhou’s eyes sharpened as she stared at him.
“What misunderstanding could there be?
Don’t you know what kind of person your wife is?
Over the years, she has taken so many things from Ying Mei and her daughter, both openly and secretly.
Don’t you have any idea?”
Zhou Xuennian coughed softly, his gaze shifting away.
“I didn’t say anything before because she is your wife, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Old Zhou family and also considering the children’s sake.
But how has she repaid me?
By only causing me embarrassment!”
“Mother, she…”
“She envies, that’s beyond my control.
Who doesn’t feel envious upon seeing nice things?
But she shouldn’t have caused such a scene at this critical juncture.
Your brother is getting married the day after tomorrow.
With this incident happening now, where does that leave the Zhou family’s reputation?
You, as the elder brother and sister-in-law, do you have no shame?”
Zhou Xuennian muttered, “Always taking sides…”
“What did you say?” Old Lady Zhou’s eyes narrowed.
Zhou Xuennian quickly offered an apologetic smile, “Mother, don’t be angry.
If she had just spoken nicely, wouldn’t that have solved it?
But Wufu, at such a young age, is already so vicious, even daring to lay hands on Aunt.
This time it’s a broken hand; what if next time she goes as far as to kill someone?”
Old Lady Zhou, reminded of Wufu’s merciless demeanor, turned even paler and muttered, “Indeed, she acts on a whim, and if it’s about killing, she wouldn’t hesitate!”
“Mother, Mother?” Zhou Xuennian saw her complexion changing and quickly called out to her several times.
Old Lady Zhou snapped back to her senses and said, “Your wife is a villain who needs another villain to grind her down.
After this time, will she dare to snatch things from others again?”
Madam Lu’s eyelids twitched but she didn’t open her eyes.
Nevertheless, Old Lady Zhou, with her keen eyes, noticed and snorted coldly, “Wufu’s character is increasingly incomprehensible, as you said, malicious enough.
If there’s a next time, it won’t just be her hands she won’t be able to keep safe; even her life might be in danger!”
Madam Lu trembled slightly.
Zhou Xuennian, although he said so, felt that Wufu wouldn’t dare, “Mother, she wouldn’t dare!
She’s only so young.”
“Wouldn’t dare?
Then who emboldened her to create such a scene at our doorstep?” Old Lady Zhou said sternly, “One must be aware of their own capabilities in life.
If you act out, you must be able to protect yourself.
Don’t act recklessly and attract disaster upon yourself; better to behave and stay still.”
Madam Lu was foolish, greedy for gain.
She might have snatched it, but she hadn’t considered the consequences or underestimated the viciousness of the other party, which led her to suffer such a fate.
“Mother, even if Madam Lu is completely in the wrong, Wufu, as her niece, shouldn’t have behaved like this.
Being so ruthless at such a young age, she really lacks discipline.” Zhou Xuennian still thought Wufu had made a mountain out of a molehill, partly trying to defend his wife.
“Ruthless?
Now you realize she is ruthless!” Old Lady Zhou let out a bitter laugh and glanced again at Madam Lu, whose eyeballs were rolling under her eyelids, and continued, “If you’re not afraid of dying, go ahead and provoke her.
I can’t assure your safety.”
