Chapter 108: The Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Battle
As the saying goes, the meek fear the strong, the strong fear the reckless, and the reckless fear those who are desperate.
Shen Mingzhu put on a desperate front, effectively shocking Ma Sufen into silence.
Her aged face flushed red, then turned pale, and finally went ashen. She wanted to retort, but facing Shen Mingzhu’s fierce gaze, she stuttered and couldn’t let out a single word.
"Pei Yang, sister-in-law, it’s getting late, you should go back and rest,"
Zhou Shuhuan, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up, but he didn’t seek justice for his own mother from Shen Mingzhu, nor did he utter a word of blame.
However, when Ma Sufen saw her son, she clung to him like a lifeline, "Shuhuan, look at her, she’s bullying an old woman like me, you must..."
"Isn’t this what you brought upon yourself?"
That single sentence was like cotton stuffing Ma Sufen’s throat, silencing her completely.
Zhou Shuhuan looked at his own mother with an expressionless face, his eyes even showing irritation, "Uncle Shan has been friends with Dad for many years, and I’m good brothers with Pei Yang. When you were spreading rumors about Pei Yang everywhere, did you ever consider how difficult you were making it for me, your son? He regards me as a brother, but my own mother turns his affairs into gossip and spreads it everywhere. Pei Yang hasn’t held it against you out of respect for you as an elder, but you behave without the dignity of your age, showing no restraint whatsoever."
"Baolan’s loss of the child can’t be blamed on anyone, it’s Divine retribution against you, and our Zhou family!"
