Chapter 1541: Mom, How Can You Side with an Outsider

As soon as she spoke those words, the room instantly fell silent.

Fu's mother glared directly at her: "If you can't speak properly, don't speak at all. Social exchanges are naturally about putting yourself in others' shoes; truly, you are everywhere."

Xiao Wanxia was by nature straightforward, and she disliked people of unknown depth the most, so she retorted directly: "Does Second Sister-in-law of the Fu family have a grudge against our Xiao family?"

She did not mention Chuxue; instead, she brought up the Xiao family directly.

Now, not only Hao Yanhong but even Fu's mother grew anxious: "Her cousin, don't listen to her nonsense. Each family has its own style of conduct; it is normal that she doesn't understand."

Those words were practically saying Hao Yanhong, from a small household, could understand what.

Even if Hao Yanhong could not understand human speech any further, she understood now; her face looked very ugly. She wanted to refute, but she dared not, fearing she would anger her mother-in-law and cause her own husband to divorce her.

Yet she could not swallow this grievance: "Mom, how can you side with an outsider?"

Fu's mother was truly furious: "Shut your mouth."

Chuxue was angry now too: "Second Sister-in-law, if you came to see the child, I welcome you; if you came to cause trouble, please leave. I can tolerate you once or twice, but I cannot tolerate you every time. What my family gives is their freedom; they value me, and it is not your place to interfere here."

Hao Yanhong had little education and did not understand the meaning of Chuxue's last two words: "We are all daughters-in-law of the Fu family. You refusing to give me face today is truly something."

Chuxue's face was cold: "When have you ever given me face? Do not forget this is my home."

She was truly angry. Did this Hao Yanhong have a problem with her brain? She caused trouble every time; had she been given too much face?

Normally she was unwilling to argue with her, thinking she was just a clown on a stage, but since this involved her own natal family, specifically the eldest branch, she no longer cared about Fu's mother's feelings and retorted directly.

Hao Yanhong saw that neither her mother-in-law, nor her sister-in-law, nor her husband's sister stood up to help her: "You are too bullying. I truly had good intentions mistaken for donkey's liver."

After speaking, she turned and walked out.

After walking only a few steps, she turned back, grabbed her bag, and said: "As if anyone wanted to come."

Fu's mother signaled her own daughter with a look, and Fu Yanwan followed her out.

Seeing them leave the courtyard, Fu's mother quickly turned to greet the others: "That is just her nature; truly, I apologize. Please keep Chuxue company for a while; I will go wash some fruit for everyone."

After speaking, she smiled at Chuxue: "Fourth Daughter-in-law, do not argue with your Second Sister-in-law; if you anger yourself again, it will not be beautiful."

Chuxue naturally understood her mother-in-law's meaning: "Mom, I am fine; you do not need to worry."

As soon as she finished speaking, Fu Yan Cheng, who had gone out to instruct Xiao Guo on matters, walked in: "What do you mean you don't need to worry? What happened?"

Fu's mother knew this matter could not be hidden: "Come with me to carry the fruit; I will tell you as we walk."

She truly felt embarrassed to repeat the shameful incident from just now in front of the Fourth's in-laws.

Fu Yan Cheng greeted everyone in the room, then went out: "Mom, what exactly happened?"

Fu's mother arrived at the kitchen: "Auntie Wei, please help me go to the storage room and fetch some fruit."

Auntie Wei was very shrewd; seeing this, she knew the mother and son had something to say privately: "Okay."

She took a basin and left the kitchen.

Only then did Fu's mother recount the incident that had just occurred in the room to Fu Yan Cheng: "Fourth, do not get angry. I will speak to your Second Brother when we return and make things clear to him. If he does not manage it, let someone else manage it in the future; he should not be unhappy about that."
