Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 143 Only when you bully your daughter-in-law can you feel balanced

Mr. Guo has always been disliked by the old lady. She cannot hold her head high in front of the old lady. She never looks for the reason in herself. Instead, she is narrow-minded and always likes to spread her resentment on her daughter-in-law.

 As if watching her daughter-in-law being angered by her mother-in-law, she could feel balanced.

When Xu Wanning opened the curtain and walked into the house, Mrs. Guo scolded her daughter-in-law with a cold face: "I have never seen a daughter-in-law like you in my life, and you still need the talent of a mother-in-law like me." Come here, what a big show?"

Xu Wanning breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed her temper and replied, "I'm coaxing Sister Zhuang to sleep."

Seeing that her daughter-in-law was not treating her well, Mrs. Guo slammed the tea bowl at her feet and said sternly: "You dare to talk to me like this."

 She pointed at Xu Wanning: "Kneel down."

Xu Wanning’s phoenix eyes stood up slightly: “I have done nothing wrong, why do I have to kneel?”

 Li Xian, who was on the side, saw that his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were quarreling again, and his head was as big as a bucket.

He quickly came over to persuade his mother and said: "Mom, please calm down, she has that temper. I will deal with her when I get back."

Mrs. Guo was so angry that she pushed her son and said, "How dare your daughter-in-law contradict me like this? If you were my son, go slap her twice and let him suffer a little and learn more."

Seeing that her son was motionless, Mrs. Guo started to throw tantrums again, crying: "You are still not my son. I became a widow at a young age and worked hard to raise you up, just to have you." Are you here to disobey me?"

Li Xian was helpless by his mother's troubles, so he had to persuade his wife: "Can't you just give in to your mother?"

Xu Wanning sneered: "I didn't do anything wrong, and I didn't break the family law, so why should I submit?"

Mrs. Guo was so angry that her daughter-in-law was shaking all over. Seeing that her son refused to vent her anger, she ordered Nanny Xu to grit her teeth and said: "Go and get the family method. I don't believe I can't cure her."

Mother Xu looked at Li Xian and Xu Wanning helplessly, hesitating and not daring to move.

Mrs. Guo was so angry that she cursed: "Are you all going to rebel? Am I still not the master of Songlet Hall?"

As she said that, she struck Xu Wanning angrily with her hands regardless of her propriety.

Naturally, Xu Wanning would not be beaten by her for no reason. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were having a huge quarrel with each other across Li Xian. The mother-in-law came in and replied: "The prince's wife is here."

When Mrs. Guo heard that Jingshu, the little mistress, was coming, she stopped, sat back on the couch, rolled her eyes twice, and murmured in a low voice: "Okay, what is she doing here? Could it be that she is relying on the old man?" My wife has allowed her to take power and come to me to show off her authority."

Xu Wanning straightened her clothes, stood aside and snorted coldly: "Don't use your own thoughts to speculate on others. My brothers and sisters are not the same as you."

Before Guo's attack, Li Xian glared at his wife and said, "Shut up! Why are you talking to your mother? Do you have any decency?"

Xu Wanning gouged out Li Xian fiercely and replied: "You still have the nerve to show off your decency to me?"

There was a commotion in the house, and Jingshu and the maid were slowly walking towards the main room, and then several people stopped talking angrily. Nanny Xu quickly stepped forward and opened the curtain for Jingshu. Jingshu and her maid slowly entered the room. They caught a glimpse of the tea cup that Guo had smashed on the ground. He just pretended not to see it and bowed slightly to Guo. Sit down on the chair.

Mama Xu quickly served tea to Jingshu.

Mrs. Guo asked in a nonchalant manner: "My mistress has come to see me, an old woman. Do you have any advice?"

Jingshu had a faint smile on her face and replied: "What are you talking about, Second Aunt? Although I am in charge of the family now, I am still a junior. How can I take advantage of Second Aunt?"

She looked at Mrs. Guo: "I and your son-in-law just came back from the south, bringing some local specialties. I learned that the second aunt returned from praying for blessings in the family temple, so I specially sent some to the second aunt."

A person like Mrs. Guo is fierce on the outside and soft on the inside. Even though she is always acting out in front of her son and daughter-in-law, she is still terrified of the little mistress who has Li Ling behind her and has the favor of the old lady. But thinking about this little mistress The mistress had just entered the house and the power of running the house was taken away from her. Although she was filled with hatred, she dared not speak out in anger.

Mrs. Guo felt even more unhappy when she heard that Jingshu mentioned praying at the family temple again. Mrs. Guo said with a sneer, "It's hard for you to be so filial to your elders at such a young age."

She looked deeply at her daughter-in-law and said in a sinister tone: "It's not like some daughters-in-law who don't take their elders seriously because of their better background."

These words were obviously used to push against Xu Wanning, but secretly they were talking about Jingshu's background, and also meant to sow discord between the two sisters-in-law.

Sitting next to Jingshu, Xu Wanning was about to have an attack. Jingshu quietly held her hand and said to Mrs. Guo with a smile: "The world is full of wonders. As the second aunt said, there are also such ignorant daughters-in-law. But it is not uncommon for elders to rely on their elders and neglect them. If the elders do not know how to care for the younger ones, the children will naturally lose the sense of filial piety towards the elders. Only by comparing one's feelings with one's own can we live in harmony. Second Aunt, don't you think this is the right way?"

Mrs. Guo didn't expect that the mistress, who came from a small family and was usually quiet, could be so kind. She picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and replied nonchalantly: "It's the same thing. "

Jing Shu sighed slightly, and continued: "I am young, and I have taken over everything in the house relying on my grandmother's trust. There must be many things that I have not thought carefully about. My second aunt is more experienced than me. I will have to think about the difficulties if I can't protect her from now on." Second Aunt is asking for advice."

Mrs. Guo half-smiled and said, "Even if he is the one that the old lady likes, he must be right. My mistress is really upset by saying this."

Jing Shu replied: "Since the second aunt is so sensible, there will be no rule without rules. Since our two families have not separated yet, and since I occupy the position of mistress, I will naturally take care of any irregularities in the future." , I hope Second Aunt can help me more."

Of course Ms. Guo could tell that these words were intended to hit her.

The eldest princess is not in the mansion all year round. Nowadays, apart from the old lady, she is the most senior person in the town's palace. Of course, she is the only one who dares to break the rules based on her status.

Ms. Guo's face turned white and red. She was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer the conversation. She only glanced at her son Li Xian, hoping that his son would help her.

Since the last time Li Xian fought with Xu Wanning, he was squeezed out by Jing Shu. Now he is afraid of his sister-in-law. Besides, what he said is reasonable, so he can't interrupt.

Jingshu glanced at Mr. Guo and then at Li Xian, and then said: "Grandma values ​​family harmony the most. If there is any unseemly disturbance in any house, and I know about it, it must be dealt with according to the family rules."
