Chapter 2017: I Won’t Tolerate It

But Old Madam still defended her.

Qiao Mianmian felt lucky.

Mo Yesi was very protective of her.

Old Madam was also protective of her.

Even if she couldn’t gain the favor of everyone in the family, it was enough for her.

“Grandma, don’t worry. I won’t let anyone bully me. If anyone bullies me, I’ll definitely retaliate.” Qiao Mianmian walked to the Old Madam and squatted by her feet. She looked up at her and said softly, “Uncle Zhang is right. Grandma, don’t be angry at someone unworthy. If your health suffers, our hearts will ache.”

Old Madam liked her obedient look.

She patted her head. “Mm, I like the way you handled it. As the Young Madam of the Mo family, you don’t have to tolerate them, especially when others don’t take you seriously.

“If you tolerate it, they will only think that the Mo family is easy to bully.

“When it’s time to teach others a lesson, show them the Mo family’s dignity.”

Qiao Mianmian was still wondering if what she did was inappropriate.

If the Shangguan and Mo families had a good relationship, wouldn’t her actions affect their relationship?

But Old Madam actually praised her.

This gave Qiao Mianmian more confidence.

At least she would know what to do when she encountered such situations in the future.

“Grandma, don’t you blame me for chasing the guests away?”

“They’re not guests. Our Mo family doesn’t have such guests. Even if you didn’t do this, Grandma would have gotten someone to chase them away. So, you did very well. Grandma doesn’t blame you.”

“Hmph.”

The happy atmosphere was ruined by a cold snort.

Madam Mo said sarcastically, “Mom, didn’t you hear what the Shangguan girl said?”

Old Madam turned around.

Madam Mo added, “Previously, the rumors online were all fake. But now that they’ve come knocking, it seems suspicious. Would they have said those words otherwise?

“Even if those words aren’t nice, they can’t be fake.

“I don’t expect Ah Si’s wife to be a virtuous lady, but at least she has to be clean and not ruin our reputation. Mianmian, shouldn’t you explain this to us?”

Madam Mo looked at Qiao Mianmian sharply.

“Wenpei, what are you doing?” Old Madam frowned.

“Mom, I’m responsible for the Mo family and Ah Si. Mianmian is Ah Si’s wife now, and she’s also a member of the Mo family. A married woman has to watch her words and actions. I believe there’s no smoke without fire. I just want to know what the matter that Shangguan girl was talking about is.

“If she can’t explain herself, I won’t tolerate it.”

Qiao Mianmian stood up.

“Mom, there’s nothing between me and Gong Zeli. Shangguan Qing saw some scandals between me and Gong Zeli and decided there was something between us. But those scandals were originally written by the unscrupulous media.”
