Miao Miaomiao was a miss from a wealthy family, but for Zhang Jiasen, she had wet her hands to cook and clean. However, Zhang Jiasen never cared.
Zhang Jiasen quickly prepared a full table of food and the houseful of people swarmed the dinner table to sit down, taking up every bit of available space.
Ning Shu didn’t even have a place to sit, so she didn’t bother to even say anything and picked up her bag to leave. Zhang Jiasen could just do whatever he wanted to. It wouldn’t be long before she kicked all of these people out in one go.
As long as Zhang Jiasen, was no longer around, these people wouldn’t be able to bounce back up.
When Zhang Jiasen saw that Ning Shu was about to leave, he grabbed her arm. Perhaps he was angry because he grabbed her quite hard. When Ning Shu felt the pain, she directly said, “What are you doing? You’re hurting me.”
The people at the dinner table all looked over at Ning Shu, so Zhang Jiasen hastily relaxed his grip and said, “It’s dinner time, where are you going?”
“Sister-in-law, you can sit here.” Zhang Wenlan immediately gave up her seat for Ning Shu to sit. Zhang Jiasen didn’t allow for Ning Shu to object and pressed her down onto the seat before sitting down next to her.
Zhang Jiasen reached out beneath the table to take Ning Shu’s hand tightly. He was clearly using this manner to force Ning Shu to compromise.
Ning Shu yanked her hand out of Zhang Jiasen’s grip and stood up to say to Zhang Wenlan, “You should sit. You have a kid with you.”
“It’s alright, you should sit, Sister-in-law. I can just eat while standing.” Zhang Wenlan hastily waved her hand as she said this, her manner a little inferior.
Zhang Wenlan’s husband Tan Heyu seemed to be trying to curry favor as he said, “That’s right, she can just eat standing. Sister-in-law, you should sit.”
Ning Shu didn’t even glance at this man. He was degrading his own wife? This family sure was something.
“You’re being so unreasonable over a simple meal. Which family’s daughter-in-law is like you?” Zhang Jiasen’s mother was very unhappy with Ning Shu and she made her displeasure clear as she tried to establish her absolute dominance in this family.
Ning Shu glanced over at Zhang Jiasen’s mother expressionlessly. It wasn’t like she was the original host and really thought of her mother-in-law as her actual mother. The original host’s sincerity was completely being fed to dogs. These people couldn’t see the original host’s sincerity at all and took her respect as a matter of course.
Like it was natural for the original host to do things for them.
The term malicious mother-in-law described precisely people like Zhang Jiasen’s mother. She was always trying to oppress her daughter-in-law to exert her dominance.
With a mother-in-law that liked to be like this, no matter how much you loved the guy, you couldn’t marry him. There were plenty of men in the world. There was no point hoping that the man would help you since there were also plenty of women in the world, but only one mother. If they didn’t have you as wife, they could marry another one.
Ning Shu felt like there was actually a pit in Miao Miaomiao’s brain, for her to be this incapable of telling good people from bad ones.
In the end though, it was because she had been spoiled too much.
But they were really seriously being too unbridled on her territory. When Ning Shu heard what Zhang Jiasen’s mother said, she immediately dropped all pretense of politeness. “My parents had bought this house for me. You guys are staying in my house, so you shouldn’t provoke me.”
Zhang Jiasen’s mother immediately replied, “What do you mean by this is your house? Zhang Jiasen’s name is also on this house. How is it just your house?”
Ning Shu smiled faintly. Look, this was the consequence of the original host’s impulse action due to love. Now these people could righteously say that this house also belonged to them. Zhang Jiasen didn’t put in a single cent, but the property deed had his name on it so this family could validly say that this house was theirs.
Ning Shu glanced meaningfully at Zhang Jiasen. It was clear that he had told his family about the situation of this house. That was the only way these people would know that this house belonged to the Zhang family.
Zhang Jiasen met Ning Shu’s gaze. His facial color wasn’t very good and there was faint anger on his face. This anger was directed towards Ning Shu. He blamed her for making things awkward for everyone.
“Enough, what are you arguing so much for over a dinner?” Zhang Jiasen’s father rapped the marble table with his tobacco pipe. He probably didn’t know that the marble didn’t have a wooden frame because when a crack formed, his face immediately flushed dark red.
