CHAPTER 140: CHAPTER 139: RETORT_2
"You ask me, how would I know why there’s a burglar at home?"
"If you ask me, it’s all because of you, you bring bad luck."
"Ever since you married into the family, our house hasn’t had a single day of peace."
"Even between us old folks, the relationship has deteriorated quite a bit."
"If you hadn’t stolen the marriage from your cousin, right now the one married to my son should be your cousin instead. That way, my son wouldn’t be stuck unable to return home like today."
"On the wedding night, just think carefully, which groom would leave the bride and go out to sea? Even if he needed money, it’s not to that extent."
Mrs. Fu now blamed all her resentment directly on Jiang Xin.
These days, she’s been holding it in for too long, with a breath stifled in her chest with nowhere to release.
Besides, in Mrs. Fu’s mind, she believes this daughter-in-law is naturally here to steal her son away.
Sons and daughters-in-law having a bad relationship is something Mrs. Fu is happy to see.
Previously, with their eldest daughter-in-law marrying in, Mrs. Fu was the same, targeting the poor woman every now and then, leading to the young couple reaching a point they couldn’t stand and moving out.
Even until today, occasionally, Mrs. Fu would secretly curse the young couple behind their backs as ingrates and called her eldest son ungrateful. Even though she raised him for so many years, in his mind, she as a mother isn’t as important as the wife newly married in.
Every day, she hangs the words "sever mother-son relationship" by the ear, saying her future support entirely depended on Fu Yu.
Even though Jiang Xin only married in a few days ago.
She knows Mrs. Fu’s few catchphrases, because every time after they argue.
When Mrs. Fu curses her, she never forgets to also curse the eldest daughter-in-law a bit.
In summary, for her, daughters-in-law are her natural enemies, fighting with her for her son, her mental state is just not normal.
After listening to Mrs. Fu’s words.
Jiang Xin, without a care, rolled her eyes.
This Mrs. Fu has gone way off topic.
The whole group is talking about the burglar situation in the house, and she managed to attribute it to Jiang Xin; it’s beyond comprehension how her mind works.
She’s just brain-dead.
Jiang Xin isn’t the patient type, even in front of villagers and police, she wouldn’t just swallow the insults because Jiang Xin has never had that character.
Thus, after rolling her eyes, she retorted back immediately.
Her words were freezing cold, creating a chill among those standing in the room.
Even some villagers were shocked, never imagined this is how this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship operated daily.
No wonder Mrs. Fu went to the village entrance every day talking bad about her daughter-in-law.
If it were them, they’d be angry too.
After all, in their village eyes, daughter-in-law is the young generation, isn’t it normal for mother-in-law to educate her?
In their homes, even if they were dissatisfied, they’d curse their daughter-in-law a few times, yet their daughter-in-law wouldn’t dare speak back.
With Jiang Xin, although they also think it’s wrong for Mrs. Fu to blame Jiang Xin for the burglary.
But someone like Jiang Xin, who unabashedly talks back, is indeed rare.
Yet strangely, it somehow felt refreshing to hear, maybe because it didn’t happen to them.
Everyone was in a watchful mode.
Just hearing Jiang Xin speak up ungraciously:
"I urge you to get clear, right now we’re discussing why there’s a burglar in the house."
"Not for you to waste words here in front of villagers and police, wasting everyone’s time."
"When speaking, pay attention to occasion and propriety; your words make people think the entire Fu Family has pig brains."
