Chapter 6: It’s All Up to You Now
Zhou Jiaojiao's face turned ugly from being scolded, and Lu Jiaxuan, who had been staring at her continuously in the main hall, was immediately upset when he saw her being scolded.
"Mother, what are you saying? Isn't Jiaojiao just being kind? Moreover, when elder sister-in-law was carried back, she was crying out in pain, and kept blaming Jiaojiao. Didn't you see? Jiaojiao was the one who stopped the bleeding from her forehead!"
Zhou Jiaojiao had been married for half a year now, and normally no one ever spoke harshly to her. The scolding from Liu Sanjin made her burst into tears immediately, which made Lu Jiaxuan feel extremely distressed.
Hearing his son talk back to him like this, Liu Sanjin's face darkened.
Zhou Jiaojiao sobbed twice, and seeing that her mother-in-law was upset, she quickly said, "Mother, now is not the time to worry about this. We need to go take care of elder sister-in-law right away. As long as she pulls through, our family's reputation can be maintained."
Liu Sanjin "hmphed" coldly and was about to walk towards Shen Meng's room but Zhou Jiaojiao pulled him back.
"Mother, wait a moment. Jiaxuan, take some food to elder sister-in-law's parents to eat. They came over in a hurry and must not have eaten. After calming them down, later I will go with second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, and mother to see elder sister-in-law, bringing some good things with us. Elder sister-in-law will listen to us."
She spoke beautifully, which made Lu Jiaxuan nod in admiration, and then he somewhat proudly lifted his chin at Liu Sanjin.
After thinking it over, Liu Sanjin felt her method was feasible and went back to the main hall to discuss it with the other daughters-in-law.
