Rebirth in the 80s: The Scholar Wife is Cute

Ruan Lingyu said, "It’s not that she doesn’t want to acknowledge me; even if she did, I wouldn’t agree to let her come back."

Fu Hua furrowed her brows, "Lingyu, are you still holding a grudge over the past?"

"It’s not that I’m holding a grudge," Ruan Lingyu explained. "Previously, I had planned to forgive her as long as she apologized to me and promised to behave and change those bad habits she brought back from the countryside, but she never showed any remorse. It was bad enough that she went too far, but then she even declared she didn’t need me as a mother and threatened to send me to the police."

Every time Ruan Lingyu mentioned Shen Mianmian, it was with an expression of anger.

After hearing Ruan Lingyu’s words, Fu Hua’s frown deepened. "Lingyu, I don’t know why you and Mianmian have fallen out to this extent during this period, but I think the way you’re insisting on an apology before letting her come home is somewhat inappropriate."

"Are you also taking her side?" Ruan Lingyu’s tone was clearly not very happy.

Fu Hua spoke softly, "I’m not taking sides; it’s just that Mianmian grew up alone, and these years she hasn’t felt much affection from you. There’s already a misunderstanding between you, and it was unexpected for her to begin with. By forcing her to apologize to you, she’s bound to resist."

Ruan Lingyu disagreed with Fu Hua’s statement, "From a village girl to a young miss of the Ruan family, in what way have I wronged her or made her dissatisfied? And she still resists?"

Fu Hua: "..."

She could tell that Ruan Lingyu had too strong opinions against Shen Mianmian and was unable to accept any advice from others.

So she sighed, "Lingyu, I think you could try to understand Mianmian a bit better. I had some misunderstandings about Mianmian after listening to Xining’s words previously, but after interacting with her, I found that Mianmian is a good kid, not as bad as you think."
