Zhao Youlin’s eyes were calm as she listened to the angry shouts of the women. Her face was even more expressionless. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, as if she was watching a very funny joke.
“Honor? You guys really have the guts to say that.” Zhao Youlin’s eyes were slightly cold, she looked at the women with unspeakable mockery in her eyes, “It is an honor to be gossiped about, ridiculed for having a family feud, making a scene of husband and wife being at loggerheads, and even subject to vicious speculating that other people’s families might break up in the future? Is this honor? Then shouldn’t I grant you guys some honor too?”
“You…” the woman was so angry that she was seeing stars. Her eyes were fixed on Zhao Youlin. If it weren’t for the fact that there were still people around, she would have pounced on Zhao Youlin and torn her mouth apart.
Zhao Youlin did not care how angry this person was. She sneered coldly, and she continued to provoke her, “I was just only thinking. What kind of person could be this amazing at speculating? Could you perhaps speculate about your own fate after running your mouth off like that?”
“You!” The woman was furious. The women who came with her quickly went up to support her and patted her back to calm her down.
Soon, another woman rushed out to fight for that woman. She pointed at Zhao Youlin’s nose and scolded, “You unruly whelp, you really rebelled against the heavens. Even if we said some unpleasant words just now, so what? Do you dare to say that what we said just now was not true? Do you dare to say that Tingfeng has never divorced you and has never treated you coldly? You’ve tried every possible means to marry Ting Feng, but now you’re only using the child in your belly to barely enter our Mu family’s door. What are you so proud of? Once you give birth to the child, your good days will come to an end. I’d like to see how long you can be proud of yourself? When that time comes, we will definitely make you regret your attitude when you speak to us today!”
This woman was probably someone who lived in luxury and was always sought after wherever she went.
When Alice heard her talking to Zhao Youlin like this, her face sank again. She wanted to step forward and stand out, but she was stopped by someone. She turned her head and saw that everyone in the kitchen had actually run out with her. The person who was pulling her was the person in charge of the kitchen.
The person in charge took a deep look at Alice, but in the end, he shook his head helplessly at her. These women were known to be arrogant and unreasonable in the upper-class society because they were members of the Mu family. They were even more arrogant to the servants. Previously, many servants had been tortured by them secretly because they had offended them. None of the servants of the Mu family liked them.
However, these people were the ladies of the house. The former master was related to them, and they were only outsiders serving others. It was not wise to confront them head-on.
As a result, many of the people who were troubled could only swallow their anger.
Now that the Young Madam had a dispute with them, unless they really started fighting, they had no right to intervene.
Alice naturally understood this, but she just could not bear to see these women acting like tigers. Weren’t they just born with better spoons than others? They could look down on others so much, and they could use words to hurt others so unscrupulously. Moreover, the Young Madam could hold her own as an adult, but they did not even let go of such a cute child like their Young Master Joy. It was really… really infuriating!
Zhao Youlin glanced at the woman who had opened her mouth to criticize her. When she heard that this woman was the one who had said that Joy was a stain, her eyes suddenly turned cold. She sneered and said, “Yes, what you said just now is true, but so what? You’re right. So, I relied on my stomach to enter your Mu family’s door and stand in front of you, enjoying the forced courtesy of everyone in the Mu family. You just said that Tingfeng and I have been married for a few years. For the past few years, Tingfeng has never brought me here. Why did he suddenly bring me back this time? Haven’t you thought about this question?”
“You… I…” The faces of the women changed slightly. In fact, they had already guessed it, but now that Zhao Youlin suddenly brought it up, they were still somewhat unhappy.
“That’s because grandfather values the child in my belly. You don’t need to care about how I entered the Mu family. You just need to know that as long as I still have this belly, I’m the treasure of everyone in the Mu family. In front of this treasure, no one else is worth mentioning.”
Zhao Youlin admired the ugly faces of the women. She chuckled and said, “You just said that my good days will come to an end after I give birth to the child, right? Unfortunately, there seems to still be a few months before I give birth to the child? ” can’t say for sure what will happen in the future, but in these few months, I will still be the rightful first mistress of the Mu family other than my mother. My status will be much higher than those so-called elders who came out of nowhere to curry favor with me. If you make me unhappy, I can easily pinch you to death with my fingers. Just like that, do you still think that you can hold out for a few months?”
The faces of the few women turned pale. They stared at Zhao Youlin with wide eyes, as if they were really frightened by Zhao Youlin’s threat.
Zhao Youlin looked at their frightened faces and sneered with malicious intentions.
In this world, there were many kinds of bad women, but the most common ones were only two kinds. One was a plastic-faced whore who appeared gentle and kind on the surface, but was secretly vicious and manipulative, and was used to stabbing people in the back. The other was a person who liked to talk fast. They had to talk other people down to raise themselves up and feel slightly better.
The biggest difference between these two kinds of people was that one lived longer, while the other usually died faster. The women in front of him were obviously the latter.
Zhao Youlin’s eyes flashed with a smile. She said sarcastically, “Then, let me guess. The reason why you are here today, saying the things you said just now, is because you think that if Tingfeng doesn’t acknowledge our Joy as his son, with his character, he will probably have a lifelong fear of women after being scarred by me, and he may never be able to open his heart to women in the future. If that’s the case, Tingfeng, as the sole descendant of the Mu family’s head, may end up having no children ever. In the future, the Mu family’s great wealth and glory may also fall into the hands of some other people who are drooling over it. So…”
