“Mother, I’m sorry!”
When Wang heard Mrs. Xu’s warning, she immediately knelt on the floor.
At first, her plan was to trick everyone involved. When the deal was done and everything had been settled, even if the truth was revealed, there would be no going back. All of them would have no choice but to accept it.
However, Wang hadn’t expected Mrs. Xu to hit the nail right on the head, finding the key to the problem.
“Get up!”
Mrs. Xu did not continue pursuing the matter; instead, she sighed softly. “Wife of the youngest, I know that you’re mad, thinking that marrying into the Xu family is an insult!
“Hmmm… It’s true that my youngest son is useless! He’s wasted three years and still hasn’t passed the prefectural exam, which is humiliating for you. I understand that you’re angry, so I don’t blame you for it!”
“Mother, please stop! I’m sorry!”
When Wang heard Mrs. Xu talking in such an earnest manner, she felt more and more awkward. Her instincts told her that she would not be able to get away from this troublesome situation so easily.
However, Mrs. Xu’s reaction stunned her.
As Wang repeatedly apologized, Mrs. Xu did not say anything to her after those few initial words. Instead, she looked at her husband, who was standing by her side.
“It’s not that big of a deal. It’s true that I’m pregnant, but I already gave birth to three sons.”
Mrs. Xu stared at Mr. Xu in judgement, remarking, “You are so troublesome. Perhaps you’re bored?!”
“Me? Troublesome? Hmph!”
His wife was complaining about his good intentions. Since he was a bad-tempered person, he snorted before furiously leaving the house.
Mrs. Xu didn’t even bat an eyelash when Mr. Xu left. As he walked out of the house, she looked at her two sons and three daughters-in-law, who were all still standing in the courtyard.
“We’re done here now. Go do whatever you are supposed to!”
As Mrs. Xu gave her orders, the crowd in the courtyard dispersed, except for the eldest and second daughters-in-law, who went up to Mrs. Xu and gently held her arms.
“Mother, is there anything that you have been craving recently? Just let me know and I’ll prepare it!”
“Just prepare anything you like. I’m not picky about it!”
To those who were obedient and sensible, Mrs. Xu would always treat them well.
When Zhou and Lee were pregnant, their mother-in-law had taken good care of them, which was why the two of them were not dissatisfied with taking good care of Mrs. Xu now.
However, the thing that they were worried about was the child in her belly.
As the saying went—youngest son, eldest grandson!
This meant that every parent would be more lenient towards their youngest son and eldest grandson.
Since Mrs. Xu was pregnant with a child at this age, she would love it dearly. What if Mrs. Xu became unreasonable after the birth of the child and they, as her daughters-in-law, suffered because of that?
“Hmph!”
When Wang saw Zhou and Lee help Mrs. Xu back to her room, she got angry and snorted.
However, her voice was a little too loud, causing Mrs. Xu to immediately turn around.
When Mrs. Xu turned to look at her, the glare she leveled at Wang was extremely terrifying, just as scary as her words from before.
Wang, who got frightened, almost fell to the ground. However, Mrs. Xu let it go, not bothering to talk to Wang.
After Mrs. Xu went back into the room, the two sons of the Xu family who were still in the courtyard looked at each other, helplessly shaking their heads as they watched their mother leave.
The eldest son then looked at Wang and said gravely but sincerely, “Third sister-in-law, you should already know what mother is like, especially after spending three years in this house.
“Plus, our brother has always been filial. You shouldn’t do anything that you could regret. Otherwise, it’ll be too late.”
