C21 Eating the Inside out

"Furthermore, our family is usually vegetarian, why does she have to be a special eater when she comes? With our family's conditions, how can we afford to supply a great Buddha like her?

"My family is poor, it's not easy for you to grow up in my family. You forgot that when you were five years old, you suffered a serious illness and your brain was burnt to a crisp. Your dad and I will carry you to the village under the heavy rain to see Mature Doctor.

Mrs. Wang didn't intend to use force against Qi Xingyun.

She knew that Qi Xingyun didn't care about that at all, so she used a roundabout tactic to wake up Qi Xingyun's conscience.

Qi Xingyun didn't answer.

He was always taciturn.

Mrs. Wang knew this well. She understood that it was enough for Qi Xingyun to listen to her words patiently.

He will listen.

"I knew that Fourth Madame had just entered the door. I was just about to say that she was in bad shape, but I can't hide it from my heart. I want to say it out loud, or else I'd feel so bad …"

Mrs. Wang saw that the emotional speech was almost done, so she moved on to the main topic at hand.

"Mother gave your wife nine silver today. This red packet isn't bad. Usually, she would give it to you for six silver."

I want you to marry your wife tonight so that I can give her more. If you go back and match it with her and see if it's nine taels of silver, I don't know why but I'm afraid that you'll suffer a loss because of your wife.

I heard that a while ago, in order to marry her precious son, she went around looking for people to borrow money. This time, we gave her so many betrothal gifts, so she might even use them to make up for her son's marriage.

"I'm just afraid. Some people don't even know their place and want to take my silver taels. In the end, they even want to frame an old woman like me. They say that I treat my family harshly and that others will only give their daughter-in-law a share of the money. I won't …"

Mrs. Wang glanced at Qi Xingyun as she spoke.

Seeing that he was just lowering his head and not saying anything, he secretly scolded him in his heart, 'It's really a lump of elm!'

He didn't show it on the surface.

"Your wife has come to our home. I don't know who her heart is against, but I'm afraid I didn't choose a good wife for you. When the time comes, I'll choose someone who eats the enemy inside out …" "It spoils our family's mood …" Mrs. Wang's voice was filled with emotion and sorrow.

Qi Xingyun silently held the red packet tightly in his sleeve.

The red packet was not full. He pinched it a little and was able to feel the weight inside.

It was four taels of silver.

His mother was playing dirty.

"I also don't have any intention of provoking you young husband and wife." Mrs. Wang said, "Just think about it. You have to discipline her too much. Women can't be protected. If you protect her, her tail will even be lifted into the sky. Who knows what she will do in the future when she gets scolded."

Mother has the heart to discipline your daughter-in-law right now, so you don't have to meddle in some matters. Remember, Mother only does this for your own good. Mother will change things for you. "Teach a diligent, thoughtful wife like your eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law to live your life comfortably …"

Mrs. Wang's words were so touching that before Qi Xingyun could express anything, she had already started wiping away her tears.

After wiping away his tears for a long time, he still didn't see any movement from Qi Xingyun.

She waved her hand to tell Qi Xingyun to go back, "Alright, go back and tell your wife that I sincerely think of her as a family member and don't let her have a grudge with an old woman like me over such a small matter …"

Qi Xingyun was silent for a moment, nodded his head, and then turned around to leave.

Mrs. Wang waited for him to leave the room before retracting her miserable expression. She then curled the corner of her lips and sneered.

With Fourth Madame's little appearance, she still dared to fight with her. She was just waiting to get separated from her husband and wife to go home and cry!
