Mrs. Huo is a Crybaby

She was young and was usually carefree by her parents’ side. However, at this moment, in this house, she was as careful as an outsider. At this age, she had already learned to hold back her tears.

“How petty.”

Old Madam Yi’s face was dark, and a young girl was supporting her from the side. At this moment, her expression was timid, and she obviously did not dare to speak up for Lin Shuang.

“Is this how you teach your child? How many bad things have you said about me in private? When you came to see me today, you looked at me like I was your enemy.” She tapped her walking stick on the ground, her tone harsh. “Since you don’t know how to take care of a child, then you might as well not! Xiao Ye will stay in the old residence from now on, and I will personally teach him the rules!”

“I don’t want to!”

Xiao Ye, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly raised his head. His expression was stubborn, and he could not hide the disgust in his eyes as he looked at Madam Yi.

“I don’t want to stay here! I hate this place, I hate you!”

“Xiao Ye!”

Lin Shuang was so scared that her face turned pale. It was too late to stop him.

Xiao Ye clenched his fists and turned to run out the door.

Lin Shuang did not know whether to chase him or not. She was so anxious that she almost broke out in a cold sweat. She explained in a trembling voice, “Grandmother, Xiao Ye is still young. He didn’t mean…”

“You taught him these words, didn’t you?”

Old Madam Yi interrupted her and said in a disgusted tone, “You came from a small family, yet you taught a child to be petty! I really don’t know what Yi Ting was thinking to actually fall for you.”

He even set his heart on her after they married and did not touch another woman.

Back then, she had chosen many outstanding daughters from rich families for Yi Ting, but in the end, she was intercepted by an unorthodox person.

“I didn’t!” Being slandered made Lin Shuang tremble. She pursed her lips and her eyes turned slightly red, “Grandmother, I respect that you’re an elder, but you can’t slander me like this. I’ve never taught Xiao Ye and Tong Tong these things. They’re both good children.”

“Oh?” Old Madam Yi laughed. “So you’re saying that I’m the bad one? Don’t forget, I was the one who raised Yi Ting! What’s wrong with me taking care of your children? It’s much better than what you’ve taught them!”

“Tch…”

A soft scoff came from the side, with a hint of mockery.

The voice was soft and delicate.

This made old Madam Yi even angrier.

She looked coldly at Song Yaoyao, who had been ignored, and narrowed her eyes. “You’re Lin Shuang’s friend?”

Lin Shuang saw this and quickly explained, “Grandmother, she…”

“Shut up, did I ask you something?”

Song Yaoyao raised the corner of her lips and nodded. “Yes, I’m sister Lin Shuang’s friend.”

Her face was unfamiliar to Old Madam Yi. So she was certain that Song Yaoyao was not from this circle. To her, she looked like a vixen. Birds of a feather flocked together, so just like Lin Shuang, she assumed she was not a proper woman!

“What were you laughing at just now? Am I very funny?”

The old woman in front of Song Yaoyao was so old that her skin was drooping and the back of her hand was covered in age spots. Her eyes were sinister. When she looked at people, it made them feel goosebumps all over their body, as if they were being targeted by something evil. She must have had a bad temper since she was young. The lines on her forehead were deep, making her seem even more mean and difficult to get along with.

“How can that be? Actually, I’m afraid. Do you believe me?”

Song Yaoyao looked at Old Madam Yi innocently. Her eyes were clear and bright, and her posture was pure and harmless.

She was completely confident and unfazed.

Old Madam Yi was so angry that she laughed. “Do you think I’m stupid?”

“Grandma, Yaoyao really didn’t do it on purpose. Actually, she’s Huo….”
