Chapter 101 - 21 Fun Facts_2
"After that, things got simple," sighed Wu Ermei. "What should have been an easygoing couple became mired in hardship because of that woman’s interference, and they went through a lot before they could finally get married. Even now, because Yu Xiaomiao has only given birth to a daughter, her mother-in-law is still pushing her son to divorce and marry the woman who, due to past incidents, has a ruined reputation and can’t find anyone to marry."
"This mess was initially instigated by Liang Yuwei, but the root cause lies with that woman. Therefore, Yu Xiaomiao bears no grudge against her, but she definitely can’t live peacefully with her."
So that explained it; no wonder the atmosphere between those two had been so strange. However...
"Shouldn’t this matter be their personal affair? Sister-in-law Er Mei, how come you know so much about it?" Lin Xiaoguai asked, puzzled.
"Personal affair?" scoffed Wu Ermei, shaking her head. "Wang Guozhong’s mother made such a fuss that it reached the military district, and even the leaders were alerted. How could that be considered a personal affair?"
She curled her lip. "It’s been five years, and Wang Guozhong is still that minor company commander. In the end, it’s still because of that incident. It’s just his confused mother who still thinks Yu Xiaomiao has held back her son. On the other hand, Li Kun, because of his family connections, even though he was called by his superiors for a thought work session, still got promoted."
Lin Xiaoguai also felt somewhat sorry; it appeared that Wang Guozhong was truly unlucky. Liang Yuwei indirectly caused such trouble for Wang Guozhong, yet Yu Xiaomiao didn’t berate her harshly, which showed commendable restraint.
But it made sense—if one could tolerate such a troublesome mother-in-law, anyone’s patience would improve.
