”Next time, if there's anything I need you to do, I will look for you myself. But even if I have to do something, I won't care if you use poison as an eyesore. This time, I got the Yang family to move out of the kitchen because of you.”

Otherwise, if we were to investigate further and find out more about you, you know the consequences.

”This servant will never dare to forget!” Qingying quickly nodded, not daring to show an expression she shouldn't have.

During the summer, the ground was covered with hard stone slabs. Qingying had been kneeling here for an hour already, but the eldest wife had no intention of letting her get up, so she didn't dare to express anything.

However, the aching pain from her knees made her miserable. The sweat on her forehead had long since wet her hair. It was unknown whether it was from heat, sweat, or fear.

”Get up! ”Take care of yourself properly. If you go out like this, even if I have no objections to you, I'm afraid Jin'er won't get used to it!”

After a long while, Lady Li lazily leaned back and lightly said this. Her expression was also a bit lazy, as if she was two different people from that fierce woman just now.

Qingying had known her for many years, so she had some understanding about her. Now that she turned into this, everything was fine.

He heaved a sigh of relief in his heart but didn't dare to get up immediately. He respectfully bowed and said, ”Thank you Madam.”

Then he slowly got up and quietly left.

As the two people inside were talking, they did not know that this scene had been heard by everyone in the corner.

As Zhou Ruyun thought about what she had just seen and heard, her heart once again felt a pang of sadness.

Chu Yuehua sighed in her heart. Although she was not Zhou Ruyun, she could still understand this feeling.

”Mother has always been in poor health, but in my heart, she has always been a great mother. I have always respected her in my heart, but … ”But why would she treat the old lady like this …”

As she spoke, Zhou Ruyun began to shed tears again.

There was no one else in the room, just the two of them.

Zhou Ruyun did not understand how her mother, who had always been kind to her, could become so terrifying. It was as if the old lady's life and death didn't matter, she could just take it away.

Her world had completely collapsed. This was not a world that she was familiar with, not a family that she was familiar with. She truly could not understand or accept this.

”Everyone has their own way of life!” Chu Yuehua thought for a long time before thinking of an argument that might make Zhou Ruyun's heart feel a little better, ”And everyone has a different opinion towards the same thing. Wife and old lady … I can't say much, but they all have their own thoughts, their own way of looking at things. ”

How could Zhou Ruyun have heard this? ”I feel so scared. How can such a respected mother in my heart become so scary?”

”Because every single person in this world is scary. It's just that you don't see their frightening side.”

Only today did Chu Yuehua realize that Zhou Ruyun was actually happy as well, because she was well protected and did not know how difficult it was outside. Even her mother, who she now thought was terrifying, had been creating a kind world for her.

”What about you?” Zhou Ruyun suddenly stared fixedly at Chu Yuehua, ”Do you have a side that I don't know about?”

Chu Yuehua was stunned for a moment. Looking at her pair of teary red eyes, she was actually unable to shake her head.
