Chapter 849: Don't Push People Too Far

Glancing around, he leaned close to Liu Chuxue and whispered, "Don't know which scumbag told her that Qiu Shaocheng's sister-in-law has baby formula and malted milk powder, so she came begging for it..."

Liu Chuxue thought, isn't Qiu Shaocheng's sister-in-law her own sister? Is her own sister being bullied?

Only then did the woman remember who the young girl before her was, and she smiled awkwardly, "Are you Xia Qiu's sister who has a job in the city?"

Seeing Liu Chuxue nod, the woman quickly waved her hands and explained, "Rest assured, your brother-in-law is tough; he definitely didn't agree to lend it to them."

Liu Chuxue looked up toward the courtyard and saw the second daughter-in-law of the Qiu family's eldest branch smiling with a look of triumph; it was clear she hadn't accomplished anything good.

After thanking the woman, she squeezed her way to the main gate.

She saw clearly the secret joy in that person's eyes; it was obvious something was wrong.

Because of the cold, Liu Chuxue was wrapped up tightly, so the onlookers at the gate didn't recognize her at a glance.

After entering the courtyard, she quickly walked over to Great-Grandmother Qiu, "Great-Grandmother Qiu, look at the expression on the face of your second branch's second great-granddaughter-in-law."

Hearing these words, Great-Grandmother Qiu even glanced at Liu Chuxue, but for a moment she couldn't tell who it was.

However, she instinctively went to look for Shaohu's wife, and when she saw the look of a petty person in power on her face, her expression instantly darkened.

Only then did she look at the person who had just spoken, "Who are you?"

Not seeing her own sister outside, Liu Chuxue released her spiritual power to look into their room; seeing her sister safe and sound, she didn't rush to enter the room.

Hearing Great-Grandmother Qiu's question, she pulled down her scarf, "Great-Grandmother Qiu, it's me."

Seeing Liu Chuxue's face full of guilt, Great-Grandmother Qiu said, "It's Chuxue. This, today's matter, really made you a laughingstock, and indeed we owe your sister an apology."

Great-Grandmother Qiu felt very awkward; after all, when Shaohu's wife had caused trouble for Xia Qiu before, Chuxue had happened to be there, and today she had witnessed this scene again. She quickly spoke out, "Shaocheng, hurry up and pull her away. Don't stand here making a fool of yourself. Don't say those things were sent by her natal family; even if Shaofeng and the others bought them themselves, they spent real money on them. You just say your own child is pitiful and want them to part with their beloved items; how can you even bring yourself to say that?"

The woman patted her own thigh, "Great-Grandmother Qiu, I wouldn't be asking for help if I had no other way. After all, our two families are related by marriage. I heard they don't lack these things at all; how bad would it be to help our family?"

"Besides, she's an adult; a few days without eating won't hurt her, but if my son doesn't eat for a day, that will be a major disaster. Great-Grandmother Qiu, please persuade your great-grandson and great-granddaughter-in-law to help me."

"My sister-in-law is now carrying your Qiu family's golden grandson. If you won't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face; just help us. In the future, Shaocheng will be a guest of honor at his in-laws' house."

Great-Grandmother Qiu saw her getting more and more outrageous, "Shut up. What do you mean by that? If this baby formula and malted milk powder aren't lent, will Shaocheng have to sit on a cold bench when he goes to his in-laws' house?"

An Xiaojing stood there, anxious as could be, "Sister-in-law, get up quickly. If you make such a scene, how can I hold my head up in my husband's family?"

Hearing that her sister-in-law wasn't on her side, the woman said, "Little sister-in-law, you are the child's own aunt, and you are pregnant too; you should understand a mother's deep intentions. If it weren't for the sake of the child having a full meal, why would I have to beg at your husband's family?"

Qiu Shaofeng was so angry that veins bulged on his neck. He saw his sister-in-law in the crowd and truly wished he could crawl into a crack in the ground. "Enough! What do you all think of my wife? Is she relying on aid from her natal family? What is all this commotion?"

"Don't push people too far."
