Chapter 283: Severing Ties
Wang Yongzhu saw other children had seats at the table, but she had none, with only a bowl of rice in front of her, she couldn’t stand this humiliation and immediately went to Old Granny Zhang to complain.
Old Granny Zhang was livid!
The Wang Family had sent a substantial birthday gift to give Wang Yongzhen face, and what did she do? She didn’t even arrange a seat at the table for her own sister, shoving her off with a bowl of rice by the stove as if she was some beggar!
She confronted Old Lady Sun right there, asking if this was the kind of hospitality the Sun Family practiced?
Old Lady Sun feigned innocence, saying Old Granny Zhang was making too much of a fuss. She claimed they were overwhelmed with guests that day, and mistakes were prone to happen. After all, it was just a child—what did it matter where she ate?
Old Granny Zhang didn’t waste her words. She just looked at Wang Yongzhen and asked her if this was her doing, why she had arranged things this way?
Naturally, Wang Yongzhen sided with her mother-in-law and also said they had too many guests to accommodate. She thought since it was her own younger sister—who was still little and couldn’t eat much—it would be fine for her to sit by the stove. She then blamed Wang Yongzhu for making a fuss over such a trivial matter.
Wasn’t this just causing unpleasantness among relatives?
Then there were those relatives of the Sun Family smirking and whispering snide remarks on the side; everyone knew they were seizing the opportunity to badmouth the wife of Sun’s Eldest Daughter-in-law’s future mother-in-law.
