Chapter 303 Mother Qian
Chapter 303 Mother Qian
"If you keep saying this kind of thing, and it gets to your son-in-law's ears, he'll be even more upset."
Qian Ru: "Will there be good results if I don't fight or compete? Will they treat me well?"
Now Qian's mother was speechless and she couldn't make any promises.
"So you see, whether I fight or not, they won't trust me, so why shouldn't I fight?"
"His ex-wife didn't fight back and was a good person, but in the end, wasn't she also bullied away by their family?"
Qian Ru still has complicated feelings towards Zhao Wan. She is envious but also angry at her for not fighting for it.
Why not fight?
She is indeed virtuous, but others are the ones who enjoy the benefits while she is the one who suffers.
If this is the kind of virtue that the He family wants, then I'm sorry, she will never be able to do it.
Qian Ru: "So, not only do I have to fight for it, but I also have to do it openly and honestly so that everyone knows that I am fighting for it!"
"Isn't it always said that others are eyeing her family's property? I don't know whether Zhao Wandian is eyeing it or not, but what if I am?"
"My son is also a descendant of the He family, not a bastard. Why can't he fight for it?"
"What are you talking about, kid!" Qian's mother angrily hit Qian Ru a few times, "How can you say such things!"
"Is it your place to say whether it's a bastard or not?"
Qian Ru did not hide, she just let her mother slap her with her hands down, "Okay, okay, I said something wrong."
Qian's mother said seriously, "I'm not joking with you. Don't say such things again in the future."
"Things based on hearsay are the easiest to explain, especially when they come from your mother's mouth. Those who like to watch the fun will only make up more outrageous stories!"
"You must remember this. You are in the spotlight right now. You must not let your words or actions give you any evidence against yourself."
Seeing that Qian's mother was so serious, Qian Ru stopped smiling.
She stood up straight and nodded seriously to show that she remembered it.
The two chatted about a lot of things, but Mother Qian never mentioned what her family asked her to say today.
When it was getting dark, Qian's mother passed away.
Qian Ru saw her off to the door and watched the carriage go away before going back.
She went to see her son again. In fact, she went to see him several times a day, which shows how much she cares about her son.
This is her son, and also her shield against public opinion.
As long as she has this child, she has accomplished the most important thing a woman should do.
From then on, there was nothing she had to do.
So she could let go and watch.
This is her son, her support, her shield and her hope.
When Qian's mother got home, she helped her maid get off the carriage and returned to the house, where she had just sat down for a short while.
The daughter-in-law came over in a hurry.
She knew what she was going to say, but she just didn't want to say it.
Until finally, Mrs. Qian couldn't help but ask, "Mom, have you told your sister about that? What did she say?"
Mother Qian drank a sip of tea calmly and said nothing.
Mrs. Qian was a little anxious, and was afraid that Mother Qian would be confused, so she quickly reminded her, "This concerns the reputation of our entire family, mother, you must not be confused."
Qian's mother was unhappy and put down the teacup lightly. The base of the teacup hit the table top, making a dull sound.
Only then did Mrs. Qian realize that she had said the wrong thing.
She quickly stood up and bowed to apologize, "It was my fault, mother, please forgive me."
Mother Qian frowned and said bluntly, "I am old and confused, why would I say anything about forgiveness or not?"
"You guys should take care of your own things. I'm old now, and it's time for me to enjoy my retirement. I can't worry about too many things."
Mrs. Qian was really anxious now, "Mom, you can't just ignore it!"
"My sister is out in public every day, and the rumors are all over the city."
"If you don't care, won't our girl's reputation be ruined?"
But no matter what Mrs. Qian said, Qian's mother refused to admit that she was going to persuade her daughter.
Seeing that her plan failed, Mrs. Qian frowned, bowed and left.
Only then did the personal maidservant beside Qian's mother dare to step forward and change the tea for her.
Seeing her timid look, Qian's mother found it a little funny, "What? Are you scared?"
The maid quickly said, "No, no..."
Qian's mother smiled and said, "Then it's true."
The maidservant just murmured and didn't say anything.
After a while, the tea was replaced, and she finally seemed to calm down. She tactfully advised Qian's mother, "Madam, if you do this, the master and the young master will be unhappy."
Qian's mother snorted, "Whatever they do, they don't care whether I'm happy or not. Why should I care about them?"
The maid was about to speak when she heard a noise in the yard. It turned out to be Brother Qian.
She quickly shut up, saluted the visitor, and quietly left.
She closed the door, and soon after, she heard the sound of an argument from inside.
"Mom, Huilan said you didn't persuade her sister? What's going on? Didn't you agree to persuade her not to do it again?"
"It's not like the He family is poor, so why do they need her to show up in public? Haven't you heard what people are saying outside?"
"Huh! Are you here to question me?" Qian's mother slammed the table.
Brother Qian frowned, "Mom? What's wrong with you? I just came to ask."
"Ask? That sounds nice, are you here to support your wife? I just mentioned her less than a quarter of an hour ago, and you're here to speak up for her."
"I don't..."
"How dare you say no! Did Xu Huilan look for you just now? Did you come here because of what she said?"
Qian's mother's voice became louder and louder, and she did not hide her anger on her face.
Brother Qian wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but no words came out.
It was indeed because Mrs. Qian went back and told him that Mother Qian did not persuade Qian Ru that he came here.
As his momentum weakened, Qian's mother's momentum became stronger.
"As the old saying goes, when you marry a wife, you forget your mother. I don't know about other families, but this saying really applies to our family!"
Brother Qian stamped his feet, "Mom..."
"Go away! I don't want to see you!"
Brother Qian wanted to say something, but Mother Qian had already turned her head away, obviously not wanting to listen.
He hesitated for a moment, then stomped away.
This time he didn't even bow.
The maid watched the young master leave in a rage, and only then did she dare to come in cautiously.
She lowered her head and was about to get another pot of hot tea. Qian's mother stopped him, "No, someone else will be here later."
The maid thought about it and knew who it was.
But this time Qian's mother was wrong, as Qian's father did not come until the next day.
No matter what the reason was, Qian's mother was finally relieved. She thought it would be better to postpone it for a day.
Whoever's daughter is the one who feels sorry for her.
They all said that her daughter was too strong, and that was why her in-laws didn’t like her.
Why didn't she tell me how her daughter was doing?
Home is not home anymore. It’s the same whether my husband is there or not.
The clan is relatively fair, but it is impossible for them to control everything.
Isn't it her daughter who has to carry it all?
Let her persuade everyone, how can she do it?
Advise her to return to the inner house to please her parents-in-law and stepchildren?
If they were a good family, it would be fine. They could endure the injustice a little, as long as they could live a good life.
But what kind of temperament does the He family have?
If her daughter softens her attitude, won't she be eaten up like her ex-wife?
She thinks life is good now as she can do business on her own and doesn't have to rely on men.
After a few years, when the children grow up, life will be better.
It's much better than waiting at home for people to show some mercy.
She won't advise!
