Chapter 472: Not One She Took a Fancy To
"Who has she ever said a good word about? She can find fault with any family, but today, she really shouldn’t have pushed those people. Bone setting always hurts, and she’s old enough to know that—I think she did it on purpose."
The eldest daughter-in-law of the Wu Family who stayed behind felt particularly awkward. If it weren’t for their younger generation working hard to maintain relations with the other families, they would have been isolated long ago, given how close her mother-in-law was to offending everyone in the area.
She offered an apologetic smile to everyone before turning to head home, feeling utterly frustrated inside.
No matter how hard they tried, it was no match for their grandmother’s destructive power. All she wanted now was to divide the family and move away from here, truly fed up with the contempt and pity from others.
Zhou Guifang was still angry, criticizing Old Lady Wu all the way, and Luo Qiao consoled her, "Alright, let’s not be angry anymore. This time, it was a child who got hurt. If it were an adult, I probably wouldn’t have agreed to help them from the start."
Zhou Guifang asked, "Do you know that Old Lady Wu?"
Luo Qiao shook her head, "I couldn’t recognize someone with such poor character. I just happened to overhear her slandering our family, slandering Big Brother and Second Brother. I didn’t know who she was, but I made sure to remember what she looked like."
Zhou Guifang sighed and said, "The rest of the Wu Family is alright. It’s just that Old Lady Wu came out wrong. Nobody wants to deal with the Wu Family because of her. She cannot keep her mouth shut and gossips about everyone. There’s not a single family that meets her standards.
Because of her mouth, she’s almost antagonized all the residents around here. Her eldest grandson is a year older than your Big Brother and still hasn’t settled down. Fortunately, their second grandson is capable. He had a love marriage and got married last year."
As the two were talking, they entered the courtyard and saw their grandfather and second brother cooking in the kitchen, "Grandpa, Second Brother, we’re back."
Luo Daoren asked, "How did it go? Is the child alright?"
