Huo Mei Shu could hardly believe that such words would come out of her own mother's mouth!
She was both shocked and angry, and hurriedly hugged Lu Zheng to prevent her from getting close to Rong Dai.
"Mom! What nonsense are you talking about!? What does my sister-in-law have to do with this?!"
"Who did you hear this nonsense from?!"
Lu Zheng did not struggle either, glaring at Rong Dai resentfully!
As if Rong Dai was the one who caused her misfortune.
Rong Dai was slapped so suddenly that her cheek was sore and swollen, and the taste of blood was lingering in her mouth.
In her two lifetimes, even when she was imprisoned, no one had ever dared to slap her like this before.
In this life, it seemed anyone dared to hit her in the face!
Rong Dai was originally feeling a little guilty about her mother-in-law's situation.
But Lu Zheng's slap wiped out that little bit of guilt she was feeling.
She never owed her mother-in-law anything!
If she owed anyone, it would only be Huo Shaoting alone!
Yes!
Although her mother-in-law was right that she had offended many people and attracted too much attention everywhere, was that what she wanted?
To put it bluntly, if her mother-in-law had not still harbored those feelings from her youth, could Yin Zhongjun have succeeded?
Her mother-in-law was a poor judge of character. Even if Rong Dai herself was partly to blame here.
But if her mother-in-law had not given others the opportunity, could this have happened?
Her face darkened all of a sudden.
"Sis...sister-in-law, don't be angry!"
"Mom is just mentally unstable right now, so she's talking nonsense. Don't take it to heart!"
Huo Mei Shu was extremely anxious, blocking her mother while trying to appease Rong Dai after seeing Rong Dai's face turn gloomy.
"You damned girl! Who are you helping? I'm your mother!"
When Lu Zheng heard this, the anger in her heart flared up again.
Huo Mei Shu had never imagined that her mother, who looked weak and helpless, would have such great strength!
Lu Zheng struggled free from her embrace. Huo Mei Shu, who had not rested well all night, suddenly lost her vision and staggered back a few steps before sitting down on the ground.
"It's because ever since you married into our Huo family, we have not had a moment of peace!"
"I didn't agree to let you in back then, but look at all the trouble you've caused since! "
"Even I am implicated because of you! You are a broom star, a wicked woman!"
Lu Zheng felt extremely wronged and irritated, and the more she scolded, the more vigorous she became!
She finally understood why those shrews on the street were so spirited now - because venting felt so good!
As she continued scolding, she even wanted to hit Rong Dai!
But Rong Dai was on alert. That previous slap was just her bad luck when she was caught off guard.
But if Lu Zheng hit her again, it would be a reflection on Rong Dai's incompetence!
She reached out and grabbed Lu Zheng's wrist. Her beautiful eyes were cold and sharp, and she exuded an awe-inspiring majesty!
This was the majesty of a Queen that had penetrated deep into her soul for the last thirty years.
Rong Dai got out of bed and stood up.
"What...what are you trying to do? You can't possibly want to hit me, your mother-in-law too?!"
Lu Zheng's face changed. She felt somewhat intimidated but also irritated!
Rong Dai held her wrist in an iron grip, forcing Lu Zheng to retreat several steps.
"Sister-in-law, calm down. Mom really didn't mean it..."
When Huo Mei Shu regained her vision and saw this scene, she was so frightened that her heart almost jumped out of her throat!
Rong Dai glanced at her before her gaze fell back on Lu Zheng.
Her cheek was still hurting!
"Mother, I respect you as an elder, as Shaoting's mother, that's why I call you mother."
Rong Dai spoke slowly, every word full of majesty, exerting tremendous pressure.
