Chapter 1344: No Room for Interference
"Mother, very well, since the conversation has reached this point, let me make myself clear," Yunjin said. "The child is mine, and whether it’s a boy or a girl is my business. I won’t be going to see Mrs. Yu, so you can get that idea out of your head!"
In the past, Mrs. An had been a decent person and, being Yunjin’s mother-in-law, Yunjin had always been polite to her. However, her courtesy towards Mrs. An was out of respect for Gu Ya and because Mrs. An was her mother-in-law. As a daughter-in-law, she should show respect and filial piety. Yunjin would abide by these duties, but if Mrs. An challenged her bottom line, then she would no longer maintain the facade of respect.
This was the first time Yunjin had spoken to Mrs. An with such a tone, and Mrs. An was immediately taken aback, unable to believe that the polite and obedient daughter-in-law she knew could show such a side.
"Mother, Mrs. Yu’s deceitful tricks may fool you but not me. You may seek her out if you wish, but if you expect me to follow your instructions, I’m sorry, but that’s impossible," Yunjin continued.
Mrs. An’s face turned red with anger, and her shoulders shook uncontrollably. At that moment, Gu Ya, who had noticed the commotion, stepped out from the house.
"Mother, Yunjin, what has happened? Why are you quarreling?" Gu Ya had always seen harmony between his wife and mother. It was the first time, since he had been married for so long, that he had witnessed an argument between them.
Hearing Gu Ya’s voice, both Mrs. An and Yunjin looked at him. Before Yunjin could speak, Mrs. An turned to Gu Ya and said, "My son, your mother is only thinking of you and your wife. I will go back now. You and your wife should carefully consider my words."
Yunjin wouldn’t listen to Mrs. An.
Mrs. An, angered and upset, left with a dark expression while Gu Ya remained perplexed, turning his gaze back and looking towards his wife.
"Yunjin, what exactly happened? How did Mother get so angry?" Gu Ya knew his wife was not one to make unreasonable scenes. There had to be a reason for today’s incident.
He suspected his mother must have crossed his wife’s boundaries. Under normal circumstances, Yunjin would not have spoken to his mother in that manner. Gu Ya watched his wife, intending to hear her side of the story first before making any conclusions.
