The Kitty Became a Cutie and Was Pampered in the 80s

Chapter 2034: Chapter 2034: Falling Out (5)

Then, from Hong Ling’s little movements, confirm if she guessed right.

Now, Hong Ling’s little movements mean that she guessed correctly.

Madam Hong’s heart immediately became uncomfortable.

No matter what, they were from the woman’s side, and it’s fine if the Ruan Family didn’t receive them with the highest etiquette, but how could they bully her daughter? Isn’t this too dismissive of the Hou Family?!

"Tell mom, who bullied you, what exactly happened?" Madam Hong, in the end, wasn’t really seeking justice for her daughter; she mostly wanted to know what exactly the Ruan Family had done.

In her eyes, the three of them, as the woman’s family, should be treated with respect by the man’s family, and now not only are they not respected, but they’re being bullied? This is simply too much!

Hong Ling naturally wouldn’t mention anything that wasn’t to her advantage. She then briefly and selectively narrated what happened in the room, and after she finished speaking, Madam Hong’s face turned terribly grim, very much angered by Hong Ling’s words, feeling that Ruan Jiaojiao’s words were blatantly insulting her, openly saying she hadn’t taught her daughter any shame!

She got up from the bed, climbed down, and was about to go confront the Ruan Family. Both Mr. Hong and Hong Ling were startled and quickly held her back.

Hong Ling herself felt guilty; she wouldn’t dare let Madam Hong go confront them, especially because... she still wanted to marry Ruan Hao, and under no circumstances could their relationship with the Ruan Family become strained, especially not with Ruan Jiaojiao.

She wiped her tears and consoled her, "Mom, we might have misunderstood. Jiaojiao... probably didn’t mean that; she was just concerned about her friend, so she spoke like that... Mom, we still have to think about sister. She still needs to live here in the future, and if we fight with the Ruan Family, how difficult would it be for her?"

"Besides... besides, Ruan Hao... really loves his sister."

Ruan Hao, and even the entire Ruan Family’s affection for Ruan Jiaojiao, Hong Ling could see very clearly, so she truly dared not have a confrontation with Ruan Jiaojiao.

That would do her no good at all.

Just as Hong Ling could think of it, so could Madam Hong. Her movements immediately slowed down, but her face was still unpleasant. Still angry inside, she said with a frown, "That little girl from the Ruan Family looks young but speaks so sharply. This kind of sister-in-law is the hardest to deal with. The Ruan Family is really too out of line."

Hong Ling was afraid she would really go to confront the Ruan Family, so she didn’t dare to make a sound, only quietly agreeing.

When it was time for dinner in the evening.

As soon as Madam Hong came out of the room, she had a stern face, without a hint of a smile. Hong Ping didn’t know what was wrong with her again, but due to the presence of the Ruan Family, hesitated to ask, just shaking her hand, signaling her to ease her expression.

However, not only did Madam Hong not relent, but she even shook off her hand.

Liu Qingyun on the side, seeing this, was stunned for a moment, not understanding why things seemed fine at noon but now had turned sour by evening. But having previous experience, she quickly responded, smiling as she took her hand, while pulling her to the head seat, saying, "Mother-in-law, it’s not often you come to visit us in Yuansu, and Xiaoping can’t bear to part with you. Why not stay with us for a while? It’s just as well Lingling is on summer vacation, with no rush to start school." fгeewebnovёl.com

This was both a polite gesture and an attempt to appease.

As the saying goes, you don’t hit a smiling face, so even if Madam Hong was upset, she should have seized this opportunity to ease the tension.
