Chapter 1399: Why are you doing this_1
"Why are you hitting me?" Having been struck, Qian Xiaoqing hid behind Ms.Qian of the Wang Family, expecting her to stand up for her, "It was your grandson who gave me the purse, I didn’t ask for it. He’s the one who’s caused me trouble, why are you hitting me?"
Even now, Qian Xiaoqing was unwilling to admit that she had picked up the purse, resolutely sticking to her story, the Yang Family was none the wiser.
"You old hag, why do you have the right to hit me?" Qian Xiaoqing, infuriated by the beating, demanded, "I want to see Yang Qingrui, I want to see Yang Qingrui. If you don’t acknowledge this, I will proclaim it everywhere. If I’m not having a good time, I won’t let Yang Qingrui have a good time either."
"Pah, you still want my grandson to suffer too?" Ms.Liu of the Wang Family glared viciously at her, "I’ll beat you to death, you shameless woman."
"Mother, what are you doing? Xiaoqing isn’t your granddaughter. If you want to hit someone, go hit Yun Xia and Yun Lian." When the old lady hit Ms.Qian, she put up with it, but she couldn’t stand by when she saw the old lady hitting Qian Xiaoqing.
Her niece wasn’t a part of the Wang Family; why should she suffer their beatings? That would be trampling on her maternal family’s dignity.
"I can’t hit her, can I? Then don’t stay in my Wang Family’s house. Has her family hit rock bottom, or have all the people in your maternal family died, that she stays at her aunt’s house every day?"
She had heard about some of the disgraceful things going on in her second son’s household. However, being elderly, she was too tired to deal with such bothersome matters, thinking that Second could manage on his own. But she never expected that, with Second not at home, trouble would arise.
"When you were little, you stayed at our Wang Family home and nearly caused a disaster. Now that you’re grown up, you still run to our Wang Family to stay. Do you especially love clinging to your maternal side?" Saying that, she waved at Wang Yongshan, "Second, come here. Your wife, you tell me, are you divorcing her today or not!"
"Mother, isn’t that inappropriate?" Wang Yongshan might have threatened to divorce Ms.Qian just to scare her, but when it came down to actually doing it, he was reluctant.
"Inappropriate? What’s inappropriate?" The old lady’s sharp eyes fixed intently on Second, "Do you have to wait until this wretched woman tears your family apart before you’re happy? What’s wrong with Pingtao’s daughter-in-law? You really want to divorce her to marry this worn-out shoe? Pingtao is unwilling, and now he won’t even come home. She starts her nonsense again. I’m telling you, with those worn-out shoes, she still dreams of marrying Qingrui. I think your wife has quite the nerve."
Ms.Liu repeatedly calling her a "worn-out shoe" made Qian Xiaoqing’s face turn red, then pale, then red again.
Ms.Qian too felt uncomfortable hearing all this.
"Mother, can you please not speak so disagreeably? Xiaoqing may be married, but she remains a chaste, virginal bride. How is she a worn-out shoe? Besides, it’s not like Xiaoqing wants to marry Qingrui, it was Qingrui who brought this upon her by giving her the purse. If you must blame someone, blame your well-bred daughter for not raising her child properly."
In the face of Ms.Liu, although Ms.Qian’s manner was not as respectful as before, she was still less aggressive.
But as she clung to Ms.Wang, Ms.Liu became unhappy. Between a daughter-in-law and a daughter, naturally, the daughter mattered more.
"Nonsense, my daughter is unable to raise her child properly? Were her two Cultivated Talent sons taught by you?" Ms.Liu’s eyes bulged menacingly, an intimidating sight. Seeing that Ms.Qian was rendered speechless, she directly leaped towards Qian Xiaoqing, "You claim that Qingrui gave you the purse, let me see what kind of purse it is."
Qian Xiaoqing didn’t want to bring out the purse; it was her proof. What if the old lady snatched it away?
Seeing this, Yang Chuxia commented coolly, "Do you really think that just with a purse, you can marry into the family? How naive can you be?"
