Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path-Chapter 741: Tidy Up

Old Mrs. Xu, "..."

This brat has been opposing her ever since she arrived here, and yet Wang Shuyun listens to her every word, which really infuriates her.

All her good plans were completely disrupted by her.

"Xiao Yun, what’s up with your daughter-in-law? Why does she have to interrupt when adults are talking? No manners at all."

"I think you should let her stay with me in the countryside for a while, so I can teach her some proper rules," Old Mrs. Xu said, looking at Gu Lingling. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

This little girl dares to challenge her; she doesn’t believe that once in her grasp, she’d still dare talk back.

What a joke!

"Mom, that’s not possible." The smile disappeared from Wang Shuyun’s face as she said calmly, with a hint of regret, "Lingling can’t go to the countryside with you."

"Why?" Old Mrs. Xu pouted, "You’re spoiling her too much, and that’s not right."

"We have an old saying in the countryside: beat the daughter-in-law like you knead dough," Old Mrs. Xu said. "You can’t be too good to her, or the daughter-in-law will ride on your head and poop."

"Grandma Xu," Gu Lingling wasn’t angry at all. She smiled with her almond eyes twinkling and said, "These evil mother-in-law tactics of yours will only worsen the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship and put your son in a dilemma."

"My mom is way too open-minded; she wouldn’t do such things."

"I’ve always had a good relationship with my mom, and it has nothing to do with being her daughter-in-law."

"Is it appropriate for you to sow discord between my mom and me right in front of us? Is it fitting?"

And what about beating the daughter-in-law?

Frankly speaking, fortunately, Wang Shuyun didn’t marry into the Xu family. If she became Old Mrs. Xu’s daughter-in-law, given Wang Shuyun’s character, wouldn’t she be completely dominated?

"You child," Wang Shuyun smiled and gave her a playful reproachful look, then apologized to Old Mrs. Xu, "Mom, don’t be angry, I know you’re looking out for me, but you don’t understand this child, she’s too kind to do what you said."

"Please, let’s not say these kinds of things anymore; the bond between us is like that of a real mother and daughter. Who can break it? You’re underestimating your mom here." Pretending to hit her again, "If you say such things again, watch how I’ll deal with you."

Deal with?

Is this what dealing with means?

Old Mrs. Xu was so angry she almost coughed up blood.

Are these two mother and daughter deliberately trying to provoke her?

"Fine, it’s my fault, is that okay? I am but a petty person judging a noble’s heart with a petty mindset," Old Mrs. Xu said angrily.

"Mom," Gu Lingling looked at Wang Shuyun with grievance.

In comparison to Old Mrs. Xu’s strong stance, Gu Lingling appeared much more aggrieved.

Besides, it was Old Mrs. Xu who was wrong in the first place.

"Mom," Wang Shuyun comfortingly patted Gu Lingling’s head, "I didn’t mean it like that. Don’t scare the child."

This little vixen, afraid?

Old Mrs. Xu felt a gush of old blood rising again in her chest.

"Grandma Xu, I was wrong, please don’t hold it against me," Gu Lingling smiled as she admitted her mistake.

But with that demeanor, it would have been better if she hadn’t apologized at all.

This really was enough to make Old Mrs. Xu furious.

Old Mrs. Xu felt that she had met her match. By the time she realized it, she found herself led astray by this brat Gu Lingling without knowing when it happened.

Leaving Wang Shuyun with the impression that she bullied the young.

"Let’s go, Mom." Gu Lingling, however, was already holding Wang Shuyun’s arm and said with a smile, "Let’s quickly arrange a place for Grandma Xu to stay. She must be quite tired today."

Old Mrs. Xu, "..."
