Chapter 162: Don’t Pick On Our Daughter-in-law

Hanbi couldn’t take it any longer. “You two better get it straight. Mufeng is our son, not yours. He’s none of your concern!”

“Sister-in-law, what you said is too heartless. We’re doing this for Mufeng’s good.” Yiling was unhappy. Zhenglu and his wife were too ungrateful.

“No need.” Hanbi was disgusted. “Mufeng is our son. We will take care of him. You two can save your breath. If you two want to experience the feeling of choosing a daughter-in-law so much, think of a way to have one. Don’t come and pick on our daughter-in-law.”

Zhengdu: “…”

Yiling: “…”

When Chengye and the others returned to the Jiang family, Nianzhen and Yuexi went to Jixuan’s room while Chengye went to take a shower.

Jixuan’s heart sank when he saw the two of them.

One was his mother, and the other was his sister. Jixuan knew that he had to take good care of them.

However, every time he saw them, he was under a lot of pressure. He didn’t want to hear them say anything bad about Jiang Xun.

Yuexi closed the door of Jixuan’s bedroom behind Nianzhen.

“Jixuan, what’s wrong with you recently?” Nianzhen came in and questioned, “Why do you always help Jiang Xun?! It’s the same today. Do you know that your public support for Jiang Xun today is equivalent to dragging our family down with you?”

“What kind of medicine did Jiang Xun give you that you suddenly support her so much?” Yuexi was angry. “Didn’t you hate her before? And you even wanted to seek justice for me and mom?”

“What justice do you need? Jiang Xun has been kicked out of the house. She can’t come home.” Jiang Jixuan was annoyed.

“What do you mean?” Nianzhen looked at Jiang Jixuan in a daze as if she had been hit by a blow.

She staggered back half a step and was held up by Yuexi. She was heartbroken. “Last time, you said that we were the ones who took what originally belonged to her. In fact, you were trying to blame me, weren’t you? You think that I was the one who took Jiang Xun’s things, don’t you? You blame me. You’re just like Jiang Xun, thinking that I’m a mistress?”

“Jixuan, how can you think of mom like that!”Yuexi questioned painfully.

“When you said that last time, I felt bad, but I didn’t tell you. I thought you were just saying it unintentionally.” Tears fell from Nianzhen’s reddened eyes. “But now it seems that you thought so since long ago, and it was not unintentional. You are blaming us.”

Jixuan fidgeted with his hair and paced a few steps, then he said, “Jiang Xun openly hates you guys. When she saw the two of you, she never had a good expression and never hid it. But she carries the hatred by herself and never needs other people’s help. On the other hand, you guys act like you’re so good to Jiang Xun in front of dad, but every word you say about her is demeaning her. Whenever you want to bully Jiang Xun, you come to me for help.”

“What did you say about us?” Nianzhen couldn’t believe what she heard. “You think Jiang Xun is a good person now, don’t you? What drug did she give you?”

“You still call her big sister? What kind of big sister is she?” Yuexi hit him angrily. “I’m your real sister, and Jiang Xun is nothing! I’m your sister, and I’m the only one who’s your sister! Why do you call Jiang Xun big sister?”

“Enough!” Jixuan grabbed Yuexi’s wrist and stopped her from continuing to hit him. “She never said anything to me. She only replied to me when I took the initiative to contact her, and she never told me anything about the two of you. She never complained about anything!”

“You still took the initiative to contact her?” Yuexi asked in disbelief.

“Yes.” Jixuan stopped hiding the truth. “Didn’t you want to know why I’m on Jiang Xun’s side? It’s because she’s right!”

“Because she once helped me and saved me! When I was threatened and blackmailed by the gangsters, it was Jiang Xun who pulled me out of the abyss!”

“I was clearly hostile to her and didn’t acknowledge her. I even wanted to beat her up and drive her out of the Jiang family. But when she saw that I was bullied, blackmailed, and even beaten up, she still stepped out to save me. Everything she did was different. She didn’t vent her anger on me because of the two of you.”

“It was clearly mom who did something wrong back then and angered Jiang Xun’s mother to death. Now, she’s trying her best to chase Jiang Xun out of the Jiang family,” Jixuan said in a deep voice. “Jiang Xun doesn’t like you, but she has never done anything to you. This is also her home, but because of you, she can’t come back.”

Jixuan said to Yuexi, “You are my sister, but so is Jiang Xun. Jiang Xun is also dad’s daughter, and she is the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. Why isn’t she my sister?”

“Shouldn’t you be begging for her forgiveness? On the contrary, you are bent on framing her and driving her away.” Jixuan looked at the two people in front of him with disappointment, “Why do you still ask me why I’m on her side? It’s because she’s right! Because she’s worth it!”

“Everything that Sister has now should have belonged to Jiang Xun,” Jixuan said. “Jiang Xun should have received the same treatment that Sister received in the Jiang family when she was young. “She should have been in the capital, just like Sister. She should have had beautiful clothes to wear since she was young, countless jewelry, and a lot of pocket money to attend a noble school. The one who really grew up with Gu Xiaoze should have been Jiang Xun.

“But Jiang Xun was tricked by mom into going to the countryside. She wore other people’s leftover clothes in the countryside and ate other people’s leftover food. Even the living expenses that dad gave her were not spent on her. She was finally brought back after much difficulty, but she was still ridiculed for being from the countryside. She did not need to go to the countryside at all! She could be more honorable than her sister!

“Now that she’s back, not only was she not treated well, she was even kicked out of the house. Don’t you know why she was thrown into the countryside? What face do you have to mock her now?”

“You actually blame us for Jiang Xun?” Nianzhen looked at Jixuan in disbelief. “Are you going to help her deal with us?”

“Jiang Xun has never dealt with you.” Jixuan frowned. Was Nianzhen delusional?

When had she and Yuexi not tried to frame Jiang Xun, only to be killed by Jiang Xun instead?

However, Jiang Xun had never taken the initiative to harm them.

“Jixuan, I only want to ask you one question. Do you still recognize me as your mother?” Nianzhen’s eyes were red with tears.

“Of course I do,” Jixuan said. “When you are old, I will give you a pension. But you are wrong about Jiang Xun.”

Jixuan frowned and sighed. “You already have a lot. Why do you have to make things difficult for Jiang Xun?”

“Yet you still have to make things difficult for her!” The more Jixuan said, the angrier Nianzhen became.
