Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The daughter-in-law of the Sun family, Mrs. Sun, was among the people at the scene.
She was jealous when she heard that the Jiang family got rich in the city. She wanted to complain about them, but they always stayed in their house. She never got the chance.
But now, she couldn’t miss this interesting situation.
“Wow, Zhou Lan always seemed so nice and kind. Who knew she’d act like this towards her own mother-in-law?” Mrs. Sun said, trying to stir things up. “No surprise the Old Jiangs didn’t give her any food when they split up.”
Seeing that Old Mrs. Jiang was getting really mad, Mrs. Sun pushed further. “And Jiang Chuan’s daughter. She made her grandma upset before and now she’s doing it again. If she’s this strong-willed as a child, who will want to marry her when she’s older?”
Some people who had received help from the Jiang family couldn’t stand Mrs. Sun’s comments. They stood up for Jiang Xia. “Their daughter was so well-behaved. Her grandmother was the one causing trouble. I think Jiang Xia is just pushed to her limits. She’s not bad as you claim.”
Mrs. Sun didn’t like it when someone stood up for the Jiang family. She turned around and saw it was the blind old lady, Li Xia. Mrs. Sun quickly retorted, “How has Old Madam Jiang been causing trouble for Jiang Xia? I remember her grandma was trying to find a good husband for Jiang Xia. Isn’t that good for her?”
“Jiang Xia is just a teenager, why are they rushing to find her a husband? They should be helping her older sister Jiang Hong. She’s older than Jiang Xia. Why aren’t they worried about her?”
Li Xia finished her words with a mocking laugh, “I think Old Madam Jiang’s real intention might be to sell off Jiang Xia.”
The whole village knew about Old Madam Jiang wanting to sell Jiang Xia. Who would believe that she was genuinely trying to find a good family for her?
Li Xia might be blind, but she knew who was good and who was bad.
Mrs. Sun couldn’t respond to Li Xia’s words. She focused on watching what Old Madam Jiang would do next.
It became quiet outside, but the situation was heating up in the yard.
Old Madam Jiang was was annoyed. Zhou Lan stopped talking, and Jiang Xia was just watching her like she was watching a monkey perform tricks.
They didn’t have much to do for fun since they came here, especially Zhou Lan who missed her favorite TV shows. She wouldn’t miss this real-life family drama.
Seeing Zhou Lan ignoring her, Old Madam Jiang turned to Jiang Gui’s wife. The eldest daughter-in-law stepped forward as if they had planned it.
She had noticed a big table in the middle of the room when she walked in. But Zhou Lan closed the door before she could take a closer look. But even with a quick glance, she knew the table was expensive.
She looked around, trying to figure out how to get the table without anyone realizing.
Jiang Xia thought her eldest aunt was always thinking of bad ideas.
However, she was relieved that her mother wasn’t being treated badly. As for Zhou Lan, she seemed not to care much and was just watching the drama. She probably didn’t speak up because she had nothing else to do.
But usually, Jiang Chuan would be with his mom in such situations. Where was her dad today? And Jiang Gu wasn’t there either.
She guessed Jiang Chuan took Jiang Gu out to play. That was good, so Jiang Gu wouldn’t get scared seeing this situation.
Finally, Jiang Gui’s wife spoke, “Zhou Lan, you’re not new here anymore. Don’t you know what kind of person your mother-in-law is?”
“What kind of person is my grandma, why don’t you tell us?” Jiang Xia couldn’t stand her aunt’s attitude. She wanted to see what her eldest aunt would say.
Jiang Gui’s wife was surprised. She expected Zhou Lan to answer, not Jiang Xia.. She quickly replied, “I was talking to your mom, not you! Don’t you feel bad? You made your grandma so upset she almost fainted, and you’re still here, not thinking about what you did but talking nonsense!”
