Chapter 1072 - 1114: Rustic Village Woman
Having lived most of her life, no one had ever dared to speak to her like this. Ling Yueyue was the first! This was contempt, blatant contempt for her authority!
If she didn’t teach this vixen a lesson today, she wouldn’t be Xue Rong!
Seeing Xue Rong’s hand swinging towards her, Ling Yueyue was ready to reach out to block it, but before she could extend her hand, Xue Rong’s hand was grasped by a pair of strong, powerful hands.
Seeing that her hand was unexpectedly blocked by Huo Junmo, Xue Rong was instantly furious, her body trembling, "You...what are you doing? You actually dare to stop me? Don’t forget, I am your mother-in-law, and you dare lay hands on an elder!"
Huo Junmo’s face turned stern, and he said sharply, "I respect you as an elder, so I have been tolerating you repeatedly! However, Yueyue is my wife, and as a man, if I can’t protect my own wife, what would I count as a man? So, I’m warning you one last time, if you dare to lay hands on Yueyue again or insult her, don’t blame me for being impolite to you! Although you’re Jiansi’s mother, I definitely won’t hold back against you either!"
"Ha...!" Xue Rong sneered, disdainfully said, "You will be impolite to me? I want to see, just how impolite you can be to me! Don’t forget, I am Tiantian’s grandmother, I am your mother-in-law, I am Jiansi’s mother! You promised Jiansi that you would take good care of our Nan Family! Do you dare to confront me? Aren’t you afraid Jiansi won’t rest in peace?"
Seeing Xue Rong still using the deceased Nan Jiansi to talk, Ling Yueyue couldn’t help but roll her eyes greatly and sneered, "You really are shameless enough! Jiansi has been dead for five years, yet you’re still using her death to threaten Mr. Huo. If I were Jiansi, I’m afraid I still wouldn’t rest in peace even in death! You’re not afraid Jiansi’s ghost will come back to find you at night! To question you, why do you treat her beloved man like this!"
"You...!" Xue Rong glared viciously at Ling Yueyue, her hands clenched into fists, wanting to hit her, teach her a lesson, but her right hand was tightly gripped by Huo Junmo, unable to shake free!
"If you’re here as guests, I welcome you, but if you’re here to cause trouble, to make life difficult for the two of us, then please leave immediately! This is my home, and I, Huo Junmo, have the right to decide who stays here!" Saying this, he forcefully shook off Xue Rong’s hand, turned to hold Ling Yueyue’s hand, continued, "My wife is now pregnant, the doctor said she needs plenty of rest, please proceed, I’ll take her upstairs to rest!" After saying this, regardless of the reactions of the people present, he directly took Ling Yueyue’s hand and left without turning back.
Watching Huo Junmo actually go upstairs with Ling Yueyue, leaving their family of three downstairs, Xue Rong was instantly so angry that her face turned red and her neck thick, stomping her feet repeatedly, "I’m so angry, I’m so angry! This woman is really shameless, what is she, actually daring to lecture me? Actually daring to steal our Nan family’s son-in-law, this shameless vixen, I won’t let her go, I absolutely won’t let her go, I, Xue Rong, don’t believe it, having handled so many difficult people, I can’t handle a little girl!"
Nan Jinning took the opportunity to stand up, pretended to wipe the tears from her eyes, said aggrievedly, "Aunt, now you see! How I’ve been bullied by her here! She relies on marrying my brother-in-law, relies on being Mrs. Huo, not only showing me a bad face every day but also bullying me, insulting me every day! Even when my brother-in-law shows concern for me a few times, she would blame it on me! This woman is really fierce, I truly am no match for her!"
Xue Rong held Nan Jinning’s hand, said distressedly, "Don’t worry, since Aunt is here, I absolutely won’t let you be bullied by her anymore! She’s just relying on Huo Junmo being here to behave brazenly! Don’t worry, I won’t let her go, I must make her retreat knowing the difficulties, knock her down from the position of Mrs. Huo!"
Nan Jinning nodded, tears in her eyes, said, "Mm! Aunt, Jinning’s future happiness depends entirely on you! I...I’ve liked my brother-in-law for so many years, I really can’t live without him!"
Xue Rong nodded confidently, consoling, "Don’t worry, Aunt is here for everything!"
Upon hearing this, Nan Jinning immediately smiled comfortably, "I knew, Aunt cares for me the most!"
Nan Mingchuan, who had been sitting silently on the sofa, opened his mouth with a frown, "Xue Rong, Jinning, I think we should go back! This is someone else’s place, it’s not the Nan family’s style to stay here and make a fuss! Besides, Junmo has already spoken! Although he usually appears calm, we don’t know how he’ll act when he’s ruthless, why should we provoke him again and again! Sisi has been dead for five years, he can marry whoever he wants! We’re not his biological parents, and we have no right to interfere in his remarriage!"
Once hearing this, Nan Jinning instantly panicked, looked at Xue Rong for help.
Xue Rong rolled her eyes, righteously retorted, "What are you talking about? Although we’re not his biological parents, since his parents are dead, as father-in-law and mother-in-law, can’t we discipline him for his own good? Besides, our family’s Jinning has looks, education, family background, quality, and upbringing, far better than that rural shrew, more suitable for Huo Junmo! He fancies that rural shrew, how can’t he fancy our Jinning! If Jinning marries him, it would be the union of Huo and Nan families, and our Nan family will only become more prosperous in the future!"
Nan Mingchuan’s brows furrowed tighter, feeling annoyed and restless, "If he doesn’t fancy her, he doesn’t fancy her! If he truly fancied Jinning, he would have married her within these five years, wouldn’t have waited until today! Why force people against their will! Besides, now the Nan family is developing quite well with the help of Huo Tian Group! Isn’t what you’re doing adding chaos!"
Seeing Nan Mingchuan not only not standing on her side but also saying this about herself, Xue Rong instantly got angry, hands on her hips and started scolding, "What are you saying? What do you mean I’m adding chaos? What I’m doing, isn’t it for you and the Nan family? You’re getting older day by day, your abilities are also not as good as money, isn’t it my intention to find a free long-term meal ticket for our Nan family, with such painstaking efforts, you actually say I’m adding chaos, you heartless man!"
Looking at her shrew-like appearance, Nan Mingchuan sighed inwardly, helplessly shook his head, silently stood up, and walked upstairs alone!
"Hey...I haven’t finished speaking yet! Come back, come back!" Watching Nan Mingchuan’s back, Xue Rong shouted angrily!
Unfortunately, no matter how she shouted, Nan Mingchuan still went upstairs without looking back.
