Chapter 83: Returning Home
"Yiguang, look at your wife, has anyone ever spoken like that?" Shen Yidong was nearly jumping with anger as he pointed at Yang PeiMin, his face full of harshness.
Shen Yiguang slammed his chopsticks down on the table, "Sister, if you don’t like it, you can go and make some noodles later. My wife has been busy preparing meals for the whole family, and still can’t please anyone? So what if something’s a bit burnt? Has living a good life for two years made you so delicate that you can’t stomach it?"
Shen Yidong, criticized in front of everyone by her brother, couldn’t bear it; her face turned red with rage, and she snapped at Chen Guizhi, "Mom and Dad, aren’t you going to do something? Look at this brother of mine, marrying a wife and forgetting his sisters. What did I say wrong? Which wife acts like her? It’s already quite good that she can sit at the table to eat, isn’t it? Getting too big for her boots?"
Shen Erniu also darkened his countenance, the normally even-tempered man seldom got angry, but when he did, it was quite intimidating, "Alright, that’s enough from you."
Feeling aggrieved, Shen Yidong put down her bowl and chopsticks and walked out.
Chen Guizhi called after her, but still anxiously said to Shen Yiyue, "Go check on your sister, bring her a bowl of rice. She’s pregnant; how can she go without eating?"
Shen Yiyue nodded, filled the bowl that Shen Yidong had used, and took it out to her.
Yang PeiMin stood up, "Mom, Dad, I’m sorry, I’m feeling a bit unwell, I’m going back to my room." She didn’t care about the expressions on everyone’s faces and turned to leave.
The dinner table fell silent; you could hear a pin drop. Shen Erniu’s face grew even more sullen, and even Shen Yixiang didn’t dare to open her mouth to badmouth Yang PeiMin.
Still, Chen Guizhi couldn’t stand the atmosphere and called her son, "You should go and see your wife, find out where she doesn’t feel well..." She didn’t finish her sentence before her husband gave her a stern look.
