Madam Zhou’s face turned green and purple, then black and purple. She was still rational and knew the severity of the situation. Madam Wang was not like Wang Qiang. Firstly, she had the Xie family backing her, and secondly, she had the elders. If she really made a fuss, it would be her, Madam Zhou, who was rude.
“.. Old Furen is joking.” She tried her best not to spit out a mouthful of blood. “Old Furen is just too worried. She doesn’t look any younger than in the past, and there are obviously more wrinkles. However, it was also said that the capable did more work. The Xie family was also fortunate to have someone like Old Madam.”
Yo, she was even getting back at her.
Madam Wang raised her eyebrows. She was never afraid of anyone when it came to tricks and insinuations. These offensive tricks were all left over from when she was young.
“Maybe the capable do more work. If your Furen really fell ill, wouldn’t you juniors have to come out and take care of the situation? No matter how inexperienced he was, he had to take it head-on. It’s hard on your child. Something like that happened to her family. Her sister died, and my brother was still caught and thrown into prison.”
” I came back to ask you where Fourth Mother was buried. Although I’m an elder and it’s inconvenient for me to come out and pay my respects, we still have a young lady in our family. We all grew up together, so we have to burn some things…”
“No need.” Madam Zhou clenched her teeth so hard that she was about to break them. The old woman’s words were too mean. She kept calling Zhou Weiniang. She was deliberately sprinkling salt on people’s wounds.
He was using Zhou Weiniang as a scar to expose.
The vicious woman surnamed Wang killed the king, so the Wang family fell. Be it Fifteenth Mother Wang or this smiling and amiable Madam Wang, none of them were good people.
She really couldn’t compare to him when it came to speaking maliciously.
Madam Zhou was also afraid that if they continued to chat, she would flip the table and tear Madam Wang’s mouth apart. The Wang family was nothing and was about to die, but the Xie family was glorious. The Chu family would not sit idly by and watch her fall out with the Xie family. She immediately stood up and smiled stiffly.
“Old Furen should know that the Zhou family has many things to do recently. I am also too busy to free myself for a moment. My body can’t take it anymore, so I won’t accompany you. Old Furen came to pick up Fifteen Niang, just take her away. Please forgive me, I won’t accompany you anymore.”
He stood up and left.
If he really couldn’t sit with such a person, his lungs would explode from anger. As for Wang Qiang, it was fine if he took her away. It would be best if she never came back. In the end, it was not her who left the Chu family, but Wang Qiang. The Chu family’s maids looked at each other. They had been watching a lot of good shows these days, but this was the first time they had seen the Zhou family suffer. Now that they had left their guests here, what should they do? Madam Wang didn’t think it was disrespectful. It was a victory to drive away the anger. She wasn’t used to Madam Zhou’s bad habit.
How was the Zhou Clan any better than the Wang Clan?
She dared to make a ruckus in front of the Wang family and immediately called for someone to bring her to Wang Qiang’s courtyard.
Wang Qiong was not unhappy. In the past, she was still concerned about each other’s face. Now that they had torn faces, she had no intention of fighting a protracted war with the Zhou Consortium. Her mother-in-law had been muddle-headed for three days and understood for two days. Today, she was on this side, and tomorrow, she was on that side. She really could not be bothered to get involved with the Chu family.
She didn’t regret being a widow for Chu Silang, but after entering the Chu family, she was filled with regret.
He regretted not listening to his parents and falling into such a situation because of his anger.
Now that Madam Wang had come to pick her up, it undoubtedly showed the Xie family’s attitude. Coupled with Xiao Baoxin’s attitude from before, Wang Qiong did not hesitate at all. She packed her luggage and brought the Chu family back to the Xie family with Madam Wang.
Wang Qiang’s mother-in-law, Madam Wang didn’t even say hello, allowing Madam Zhou’s daughter-in-law to bully her until now, she could only lie on the bed, it could only be said to be her retribution. Back then, he was domineering, tormented people, and set rules for others. Now, he had returned the favor.
Her own niece had married over to watch over her son’s family. If she didn’t treat her well, she would be bullied by Madam Zhou. She couldn’t even be bothered to meet such a person.
When Madam Wang went to pick her up, Xie Wan had already returned to the courtyard to get someone to tidy up the room. In the past, Wang Qiang and Chu Lingzi had also lived in the same courtyard as Xie Wan when they moved in. There were always three sets of things there, and it did not take long for them to be packed up.
When Wang Qiong arrived at the Xie residence, she went straight to Mother Xie’s place. When the two generations met, their eyes reddened.
” You’re such a child.”
Mother Xie let out a long sigh. Her words contained countless meanings. It was a pity, but she also hated her for being disappointing.
“You can stay in the Xie family at ease. This is your home. Then it’s up to the Chu family whether they return or not.” Mother Xie felt that she hadn’t said it clearly, so she simply pointed it out. “You should at least stay here for half a year. Think carefully about where you want to go in the future. If you still want to return to the Chu family, I will respect you no matter how unwilling I am. If you don’t want to go back, we’ll think of a way to bring out the dowry after a year. After all, there’s always the Xie family to protect you from the wind and rain.”
“Our Xie family is not to be bullied.”
Wang Qiang wiped her tears dry and brought Chu An to Mother Xie.”This is Chu An.”
“He’s been adopted under your name?” Mother Xie asked.
“I wrote the clan certificate.” Wang Qiong said.
“Alright.” Mother Xie nodded and beckoned Chu An over. “Great-grandmother didn’t expect to see you so soon, and she didn’t prepare a gift. Let’s give you a grand welcome tomorrow, okay?”
As he spoke, he teased Chu An.
Chu An had a gentle personality, but he could tell who was good and who was bad.
Madam Zhou bullied the two of them, but the Xie family was the one who brought them here. It was easy for him to think that they were the ones who stood up for her. Then, he looked at Mother Xie, who looked like a kind old lady. She smiled amiably and said,
“I don’t dare to accept Great-Grandmother’s grand welcome. We are extremely grateful that you can protect me and Mother.”
Mother Xie couldn’t help but be surprised. This child was so young, but he was unusually clear and eloquent.
“Your son is very good.” Mother Xie nodded at Wang Qiang. This child had chosen well. “There’s a shadow of Xuan Hui when he was young.”
His words made the entire room laugh.
This was probably the best compliment for Chu An. In Mother Xie’s eyes, it was amazing that he resembled Xie Xian a little. Her grandson had been intelligent since he was young. To say that Chu An resembled Xie Xian was no different from saying that he was a child prodigy.
After chatting for a while, Mother Xie let Wang Qiang return to the courtyard.
He treated her like family, so there was no need to treat her like a guest. “Go back and pack up. We’ll have dinner together tonight. Ask Ah An what he wants to eat and ask the kitchen to prepare it.”
The last sentence was clearly said to Xie Wan. Xie Wan quickly agreed and left with Wang Qiang and her son with Xiao Baoxin.
Returning to Xie Wan’s courtyard, Wang Qiang was filled with emotions.
She knew that everything had changed.
His attitude was different from when he visited the Xie Family in the past. In the past, he was a guest at his maternal grandfather’s house. Now that he was married and widowed, his identity and status were different when he returned to his old place.
She didn’t want to use the words ” living under someone else’s roof”, but that was the actual situation.
His heart was filled with sorrow..
