Chapter 308: Going to Your Grandma’s House
Zhou Jiaojiao listened to her mother-in-law’s words, feeling smug inside. When she wanted to laugh, she accidentally tugged at the wound on her face. Her mother-in-law had used this same tactic to pinch Shen Meng in the past, making her give up the big house, and now to pinch Wu Xianglan was just as easy as nabbing her by the wrist.
Her family’s new house was already built. If it weren’t for the sake of her son having someone to look after him and to save on their own food, she would have moved long ago. Why bother living with these people, lowering her own status?
"Second sister-in-law, no matter what, the most important thing is for a family to live together in harmony. Other things like money and jobs are all trivial compared to that. After all, the children are still so young. Can you bear to let them be without a father or without a mother? Jiaxuan and I wouldn’t have come to persuade you if we hadn’t meant well. I even got hit by you for nothing, and my mom wants you to compensate us, which is quite fair. Otherwise, who would want to be on good terms with you next time?"
"Jiaojiao, go back to the room and keep an eye on our Bao Bao. Whoever hit someone should be punished. Let’s go back. After all, it’s not us who make a mess of our lives, hmph!"
Shen Meng was right beside Wu Xianglan’s right hand, and seeing her stunned, she quickly pinched her secretly. If you show even a little weakness now, from now on you’ll only be subject to others’ control.
"Clear your head. You don’t need to care about what others say. The key is what you want to get, what you want to hold on to, and what kind of life you want your children to have in the future. Wu Xianglan, ask yourself."
Wu Xianglan jolted from Shen Meng’s pinch, and turning her head, she saw Shen Meng looking at her intently.
Thinking about what she wanted, thinking about what she wanted to achieve, she thought, she wanted her two children to have education and food to eat. She wanted them not to be called mud-legged by others in the future. She wanted them to stand tall and have a good future.
