“All of that is what she should have done!” the old lady declared self-righteously. “1 never agreed to your relationship in the first place. It was because you begged me that you could marry her, and she should have behaved properly!”

The shameless words of the old lady pushed Mei Shu to her limits.

She abruptly raised her head, her eyes filled with unrelenting anger, and stared straight at her. “What do you mean she should have? Just because Dad insisted on being with Mom, she’s supposed to sacrifice for you? You didn’t give birth to her, you didn’t raise her, you didn’t show her an ounce of love. She doesn’t owe you anything. Why do you think she should do all of that?”

“You ungrateful brat, are you arguing with me?” the old lady asked. “It’s your mother who does whatever she pleases, behaves arrogantly, and doesn’t put anyone in her eyes. She’s raised such an uncultured daughter like you! 1 think you’re the one who lacks discipline!” As she spoke, she even raised her cane as if to strike Mei Shu.

Mei Yun quickly raised his hand to grab the cane that was swung at Mei Shu. “Mom, please speak sensibly. Shu’er has just returned, how can you lay hands on her?”

“She just returned, but have you seen what’s happened in our family since she came back?” the old lady said, infuriated. “Are you deliberately trying to provoke me to death? Don’t you understand that this girl came back just to disrupt the peace in your family, to destroy your life?”

“Mom, please don’t say that about Mei Shu!” Mei Yun said anxiously as he stood up to shield his daughter.

Mei Yan also had a resentful expression and spoke up for Mei Shu. “Grandma, it’s not Sister who made a mistake. Why do you talk about her like that? 1 think the one who should be scolded the most is Mei Mu. If it weren’t for her stupid actions, Dad wouldn’t have driven her out.”

“You see! The older one corrupts the younger one! Mei Yan has been influenced badly by her. I think she should be sent back to the countryside, so she doesn’t cause trouble here!” The old lady pointed at Mei Shu, scolding her angrily.

Mei Yun had been trying to mediate and speak well of Mei Shu.

But the more he did, the more agitated the old lady became. “You’re still defending her! Why are you defending her? She’s just as ill-mannered as her late mother! She doesn’t understand decorum and shame! It was her mother who insisted on sticking to you like glue and marrying into our Mei family, causing you so many years of trouble. Otherwise, you and Wang Yue would definitely be happier now!”

“How did 1 raise such an unfilial son like you!…”

Smack!

A loud slap resounded, completely interrupting the old lady’s incessant chatter in the living room.

Mei Yun looked incredulously at his daughter, who was clapping her hands and looking disdainful. “Shu’er, how could you hit Grandma?”

Mei Yan and Mei Jing reacted quickly, swiftly moving to stand in front of their sister. “Dad, Sister had no choice. Grandma said something way over the line. How could she say such things about Mom?”

Mei Yun couldn’t say much more and hurried to check on his elderly mother who had been slapped.

Even now, the old lady felt a ringing in her ears and saw snowflakes in front of her eyes. She even suspected that Mei Shu had slapped her into deafness.

She sat down on the sofa in a daze, her face in her hands, and it took her a long time to come to her senses. “You hit me! You actually dared to hit me! You ungrateful thing who doesn’t understand respect!”

The old lady, furious, picked up her cane again, ready to strike someone.

This time, Mei Yun simply took her cane away and held his mother, comforting her with a painful expression on his face. “Mom, please stop talking. If you hadn’t kept bringing up Bai Ling, Shu’er wouldn’t have been provoked to hit you.”

“She hit your mother! And you still want to defend her?” The old lady felt dizzy and nearly fell to the ground.

Mei Yun quickly helped his mother sit back on the sofa.

In the kitchen, Wang Yue, who had been paying attention to the commotion, rushed over in tears when she heard the yelling. “Mom! Are you okay?”

She squatted in front of the old lady, anxiously checking the red marks on her face.

Tears streamed down the old lady’s face. “Misfortune upon our family, misfortune upon our family! How did our Mei family raise such an ungrateful wolf?”

Mei Shu, hearing this, couldn’t help but sneer. “Raise? Don’t forget, after 1 was sent to the countryside, I never spent a single cent from the family, and you’ve never spent a penny on me since I was young. How can you claim to have raised me?”

“Shu’er!” Mei Yun, worried that his elderly mother might really get sick from anger, scolded Mei Shu.

But Mei Shu didn’t want to tolerate it any longer. “Dad, did 1 say anything wrong? Regarding the woman you sent to the countryside to take care of me, I think now you should be clear about what kind of a person she really is. You should be clear about how much of the money you sent me was really spent on me. Mom sacrificed everything for this family, but what did she ultimately get?”

She could see the pain in Mei Yun’s eyes and the sarcastic smile at the corner of her mouth deepened. She suddenly turned to the old lady, who was crying and screaming on the sofa, grabbed her collar, and said word by word, “My mom did nothing wrong to the Mei family. On the contrary, how did you treat her?” “You kept it from her, let my dad have an illegitimate child outside, and you’re going to get what you deserve for all these unscrupulous acts! I’m looking forward to seeing how you’ll end up!”
