To put it bluntly, there were so few pieces of ribs that they were really just for the flavoring. She and her mother’s family, even if they wanted, could only eat a few more potatoes to fill their stomach. The ribs were reserved for the children to eat.
The small calculations in the mind of Mrs. Fu’s sister-in-law from her maternal home were something only she herself understood.
In the end, people are selfish. Take Mrs. Fu, for instance. All these years, she had sacrificed a lot for her maternal family, but in their eyes, they couldn’t even bring themselves to serve her a meal of ribs.
Honestly, it was quite disheartening.
Now, after listening to Mrs. Fu, her sister-in-law from her maternal family couldn’t say a word, as they were clearly in the wrong and had no standing in the matter.
So now, upon hearing what Mrs. Fu had to say, all they could do was give an awkward smile.
Anything more said was just pointless.
Her mother from her maternal home continued to curse and complain, with not a single pleasant word coming from her mouth.
Mrs. Fu was frankly tired of wasting her breath on them and directly turned her head and followed the police officer into the police car.
As for those five dresses, they had long been taken in as evidence.
As for Mrs. Fu’s sister-in-law from her maternal home, she also had to follow a police officer to the police station to make a statement before she could return.
Though reluctantly, in this era, if she got into the police car, just as she stepped out of the village, the neighbors might start gossiping about her behind her back.
How awful the things they might say then!
But, it was truly an unavoidable situation, so she had no choice but to grit her teeth and get into the police car.
Her relatives from her maternal home didn’t gain a single advantage.
On the contrary, they tarnished their own family’s reputation.
As for the matter of severing the mother-daughter relationship, it ultimately didn’t happen.
After all, the mother and daughter were always bickering, ultimately just blaming each other, and in the end, no proper matter was resolved.
By the time Mrs. Fu’s mother from her maternal home reacted.
Mrs. Fu was already gone with the police car.
Ultimately, there was nothing they could do in time.
After arriving at the police station, following some mediation, Jiang Xin, after weighing the pros and cons, felt that this matter, to be honest, was quite pointless.
She was already exhausted from all the fuss.
If she were to continue pursuing the matter, she might have to hire a lawyer and go to court, but she was currently in the midst of expanding her business. She wanted to scale up her small business, and if she pursued this matter, it might waste a lot of time.
Moreover, she still needed to expose the scandal between Jiang Wan and Zhou Kuangyu, and she didn’t know when the photos from the photo studio would be developed.
If too much time was wasted on this matter, it would truly be a case of having more losses than gains. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel•fire.net
So, after weighing the pros and cons, Jiang Xin thought that at present, she couldn’t move out of the Fu Family and would ultimately have to live under their watchful eyes.
In that case, it might be better to forgive and forget. Besides, judging by today, the lesson Mrs. Fu learned should be significant enough.
The blow from her own family to her was already considerable, and there was no need to pursue it further. After all, regardless of everything, she was already up in age, and right now, she and Fu Yu hadn’t divorced yet, so, in name, Mrs. Fu was still her mother-in-law.
After thinking it over, Jiang Xin decided to accept the mediation, as the police had also advised her to do so. After all, they were family, and they would eventually have to live under the same roof. If things got too awkward, what would happen then?
Jiang Xin felt that these words were very reasonable, so, after careful consideration, she decided not to pursue Mrs. Fu stealing her clothes, just hoping that she would restrain herself in the future.
After going through such a major setback, Mrs. Fu should hopefully learn a lesson.
