Liang Xi’s mother caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye and immediately reacted. She hurriedly said, "Qingxu, what do you mean by that? Auntie really doesn’t understand. After all, I am your elder. Isn’t it inappropriate for you to speak to me ?"
Seeing her so self-righteous, Manager Wei almost laughed in anger. "Fine, you won’t admit it? Just wait until you see the evidence. I’ll see if you admit it then!"
With that, Manager Wei went to the kitchen.
Seeing the direction they were headed, Liang Xi’s mother’s heart skipped a beat, and her complexion turned slightly green.
Liang Xi had been with his mother day and night and immediately noticed something was off about her. He subconsciously called out, "Mom..."
Liang’s mother shuddered and snapped back to reality, scolding sternly, "Wei Qingxu, what on earth are you trying to do?"
She walked briskly to the kitchen, fuming with rage.
"What could I possibly do to Qingran? She is my daughter-in-law, and I watched her grow up from a child. She’s like my own daughter. I can’t be kind enough to her. How can you suspect me ?"
Liang Xi felt a tightness in his head and quickly followed them.
Xia Xin was a bit nervous. "Ancestor, should we follow them?"
"Follow them, of course. It’s the perfect chance to watch the excitement," Jiangli raised her eyebrow and stepped forward.
Well, he should have known his ancestor’s character.
Xia Xin and Qing Yue had no choice but to follow.
The kitchen was quite lively at that moment.
The kitchen of Liang Xi’s house was bigger than the master bedroom of an average household.
But with so many people standing there, it seemed a bit crowded.
By the time Jiangli arrived, almost every cabinet in the kitchen had been opened.
Wei Qingran was rummaging through every box and cabinet, looking for something.
Upon entering the kitchen and seeing the situation, Liang’s mother’s hand clenched tightly and, without thinking, she rushed over and yanked Wei Qingran.
"Wei Qingran, what in the world are you doing? After returning from your maternal home for several days, you’ve come back and wreaked havoc. If you don’t want to live here anymore, just say it directly. Why do this? The Wei Family might not care about face, but the Liang Family does!"
Upon hearing this, Manager Wei coldly sneered with anger, "Who is the one without shame? Considering you’re my elder, I have refrained from speaking harsh words! But shouldn’t there be a limit to our actions? Are you not clear what you have done? Since we are here, it means we know something. Do you think you can intimidate people by ranting like the boy who cried wolf? Let me tell you, it’s not going to work! I will just speak plainly. If the Liang Family doesn’t give our Qingran an explanation today, this matter will not rest! I want to see if the Liang Family is more powerful, or if the Wei Family is!"
Upon hearing these words, Liang’s mother’s expression underwent several changes.
Seizing the moment while she was stunned, Wei Qingran pushed her aside and opened a cabinet in the corner.
Inside were all sorts of medicinal packets.
Wei Qingran took out one, tore it open, and it was exactly the medicine she usually took.
On the surface, it looked just as Jiangli had described, nothing unusual, just regular medicinal herbs.
"What are you trying to imply? Wei Qingxu, Wei Qingran, this is just ordinary tonic medicine. You a woman who hasn’t borne a child after three years of marriage—I merely wanted you to take some tonic medicine to nourish your body. Is there something wrong with that? Wei Qingran, ask yourself, have I ever blamed you or treated you differently because you haven’t had a child? Now you come back and stir up this trouble. What are you trying to do?"
Seeing this scene, Liang’s mother breathed a sigh of relief and once again became self-righteous, shifting all the blame onto Wei Qingran.
