Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Luo Qingxue’s face was pale. This time, she was really regretful. “Cousin Heng, my mother is just drunk. I’ll bring her down now. Can you arrange a place for her to stay temporarily?”
She did not want to leave yet. She had not achieved her goal this time.
She did not even have the chance to talk to Chu Heng alone, so how could she accept this?
She secretly tugged at Chu Hongmei’s sleeve, telling her not to argue with Ye Muyu and to stay first.
Chu Hongmei was so angry that her chest felt tight. After receiving her daughter’s hint, she could only swallow her anger for the time being. Her heart was stifled, and her expression was extremely ugly.
“Who said I wanted to let you stay?” Chu Heng looked at her with a faint smile.
“Didn’t Cousin Qingxue say that she had read a lot of books? Don’t you understand the meaning that I’m sending guests away?”
These straightforward words made Luo Qingxue unable to maintain her composure. Her eyes turned red. This time it was true, especially when she saw the others pointing at her, she felt that she had lost all her face today.
Chu Yonghua wanted to persuade him again, “Ah Heng…”
“Lu Chuan, send the guests out!” Chu Heng said sternly.
Lu Chuan immediately appeared and took Chu Hongmei and Luo Qingxue out.
“Although she’s my aunt, she has no right to insult my wife, my parents, and my family,” Chu Heng said.
“Uncle, don’t you think so? As a man, if he can’t even protect his wife, children, and parents, what’s the difference between him and a good-for-nothing? What’s the use of studying?” Chu Heng said calmly.
“Ah Heng is right. It’s fine if you don’t want this kind of relative. They wanted to befriend Ah Heng and bully your wife. What kind of person is this?” Du Heng clapped his hands and watched the show. Ye Muyu’s strength was an eye-opener for him.
In his memory, his sister-in-law was an extremely gentle person. He did not expect her to have such a domineering side.
Du Heng could not help but glance at Ye Muyu.
He was a little surprised when he saw her. When did Ye Muyu’s skin become so good and good-looking…
“Ahem.” Chu Heng suddenly gave him an elbow. Du Heng quickly withdrew his gaze and touched his hair awkwardly.
“Second Sister is getting more and more rude,” Chu Zhiwen knocked on the pipe.
Seeing this, Chu Yonghua also knew that Chu Heng’s attitude was firm. He did not want to offend his nephew, who had a bright future, because of his sister, Chu Hongmei, who had married far away. Naturally, he nodded. “Second Sister has not returned all these years. It’s obvious that she doesn’t get along with us. Since she doesn’t get along, we should try our best to have less contact in the future.”
With one sentence, it was as if Chu Hongmei was sentenced to death. They did as what Chu Heng intended.
When the others heard Chu Heng’s words, they naturally had no reason to say that he did something wrong. After all, there was nothing wrong with him being filial.
Soon, Chu Heng was dragged back to eat.
Before he left, he squeezed Ye Muyu’s hand to calm her down.
Ye Muyu was not angry at him. Now that she had chased Chu Hongmei and her daughter away, she had temporarily solved this problem. Naturally, she would not be angry anymore. After all, she would grow old quickly if she kept being angry. She would not be angry at someone who had nothing to do with her.
“You can go eat. I’m fine,” Ye Muyu said.
Seeing that she was not angry, Chu Heng turned around and left.
Ye Muyu cleaned up her seat on the dining table and scooped a bowl of rice with some soup.
Without anyone looking for trouble, the banquet passed by smoothly.
After dinner, all the relatives in the neighborhood had gone home.
Chu Xingjun and her husband, who were far away, were arranged to stay in the old residence.
Chu Qingxiang and her husband also came. Chu Qingxiang did not look very well, as if she had not rested well.
Madam Zhang asked her to stay, hoping to talk to her.
Chu Qingxiang was silent, but she also agreed.
