CHAPTER 198: CHAPTER 158: RECONCILIATION (3)

As expected, when Jiang Xin initially reported to the police, her desire to catch the culprits was extremely strong.

Even when Mr. Fu tried to advise her, she was completely unwilling to listen.

So now, upon hearing her agree to reconciliation, Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu, who had already lost all hope, were genuinely shocked by Jiang Xin’s willingness to forgive them.

After all, the amount involved was enormous.

If Jiang Xin really wanted to pursue accountability, Mrs. Fu would surely end up in jail for a few days.

Upon hearing Jiang Xin say she would forgive them, Mrs. Fu was so overwhelmed with joy that tears immediately fell, knowing that she was at such an age that, if sentenced for a few years, she would be quite old by the time she was released.

That would truly mean wasting all that precious time.

At this moment, both Mrs. Fu and Mr. Fu felt immense gratitude towards Jiang Xin.

Especially Mrs. Fu, after experiencing the emotional rollercoaster today, she instantly saw things clearer.

Reflecting on the past days, because she looked down on Jiang Xin as her daughter-in-law, she kept finding faults with her behind her back.

In reality, only she knew how forced those issues were.

Frankly, it was like finding bones in an egg.

Since Jiang Xin married into the family, she never took the initiative to provoke her, it was always her angering Jiang Xin until she retaliated.

Even today’s incident was the same.

Without Jiang Xin’s consent, she had secretly climbed through the window into Jiang Xin’s room and even stole the precious dress Jiang Xin’s parents bought for her.

This incident was entirely her fault.

Now that Jiang Xin was willing to forgive her, she felt she should offer her sincere thanks, so even though Mrs. Fu is one to care about face, she conceded and bowed her head.

Because she felt that Jiang Xin, despite her young age, was truly magnanimous for not holding her accountable.

To actually not hold grudges over such matters.

If it had been her, she would undoubtedly imprison someone who stole her clothes, no matter what, just to get even.

At this very moment, Mrs. Fu felt as if she had narrowly escaped disaster, as though she had regained half her life.

Today’s incident also made her realize the true nature of her own family, so in her heart, she felt grateful to Jiang Xin, and she willingly spoke up to mend the already damaged mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship:

"Uh... Jiang Xin, the previous issues were all my fault, thank you for forgiving me this time."

"Through this incident, I’ve come to understand, as long as you don’t make mistakes, I won’t take the initiative to fault you or pick on you anymore."

"I admit that previously, all those matters against you were just me being unreasonable, it was my fault."

"In the future, our family should just embrace each other and lead a good life."

"Regarding you and Fu Yu, if Fu Yu decides to return and you still wish to divorce, we certainly won’t stop you."

"Or, if you two want to work things out, we wholeheartedly support you."

Mrs. Fu finally lowered her proud head and apologized to Jiang Xin, who is her junior.

After all, the whole mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship has always been her fault to begin with.

Upon hearing Mrs. Fu’s words, Jiang Xin was genuinely surprised, realizing that their relationship had deteriorated this much.

For Mrs. Fu to actually apologize to her was truly like witnessing the sun rising from the west.

Really, living long enough brings unexpected sights.

But then again, because of today’s incident, Mrs. Fu saw through her family and naturally learned to cherish the good days ahead.

Moreover, at this moment, with Jiang Xin choosing to reconcile, it also subtly gave Mrs. Fu a way out.

In this manner, both could be seen as taking a step back.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Xin felt that since they all had to live under the same roof, constantly having conflicts would make things unbearably exhausting for both.

It’s better to reconcile at this point.
