Chapter 408: Chapter 408: The Mother-in-Law’s Grievance_1

"Yang Meifeng! How cruel-hearted you are!"

Chen Guihua couldn’t stand it anymore and angrily said, "No matter what, you married into our Luo Family and have been relatives with us for over twenty years, nearly thirty."

"And you just stand by and do nothing? Are you even human?"

"I’m not human? You are human!" Yang Meifeng was infuriated and retorted, "Chen Guihua, ask yourself, since the day I married into your Luo Family, who among you has ever treated me with kindness?"

"From the very first day I married Shan Chuan, you all looked down on us!"

"When others have weddings, at the very least they have dozens, even hundreds, of guests enjoying the banquet, but what about us? Just three tables in total! Two from my family and just one lousy table from your grand Luo Family!"

"Do you know what people at my family’s house said? They called it ’taking a concubine!’ Do you understand that?"

"The year I got pregnant, Chen Guihua, you came over with your fake concern, even bringing an egg gift box."

"I thought you had a change of heart, but who would have guessed that more than half of the eggs you brought were rotten! I didn’t know and ate two of them, which directly resulted in me being rushed to the hospital with a bleeding episode!"

"I barely made it back, both me and Ning’er!"

"There was another time when Ning’er was not even three. You had a fight with Luo Yuantu and brought Xuan Ran over to play at our house. I consoled you for a long time, found a neighbor to play cards with you to ease your mind, and went to the market to buy good wine and dishes."

"But what did you do? While playing cards, you bad-mouthed me horribly, calling me a tight-fisted, stingy woman with smelly feet from the country, and that wasn’t all. When Ning’er was crying in the room, rather than comforting her, you even had Xuan Ran cover her with a cup!"

"If I hadn’t come back in time, Ning’er would have lost her life!"

"And now you’re telling me that I’m not human? Are you even a human being?"

Chen Guihua was left speechless as she was berated, although these were all old and rotten issues, each one was true.

The old lady waved her hand, trying to calm things down, "Mei Feng, those are all things of the past, there’s no need to bring them up..."

"Why can’t I bring up the past? Why not!"

Yang Meifeng was totally losing her temper now, venting out all the frustrations that had built up over the past twenty-plus years, "Sure, Chen Guihua treated me badly, but the person who was truly the cruelest to me is you, mother!"

"Do you still remember what you said when Shan Chuan and I served you tea on our wedding day?"

The old lady was clueless; it had been nearly thirty years ago, and she couldn’t remember clearly.

"Heh, you didn’t even take the teacup that day. You just turned around and left. Before going, you said in front of those twenty-plus guests, ’Let it be, as if you could bring anything good to the Luo Family anyway.’

"That was my first day entering your Luo Family! You wouldn’t drink my tea, you just walked away, and even said those words!"

"Do you know that it was your words that day that led to not a single relative on the Luo side showing any respect for me and Shan Chuan."

"In their eyes, Shan Chuan was nothing but a low-status bastard, and I didn’t even deserve to step foot into the Luo Family’s door!"

Yang Meifeng grew increasingly agitated as she spoke, "I’ve been with your Luo Family for almost thirty years, who among you even remembers my birthday? Who has ever given me a gift?"

"Yet mom, you, after turning fifty, had a big birthday celebration every year, always expecting us to bring gifts. We were poor and couldn’t afford anything too expensive, and you and your guests mocked us for it!"

"Even at the company, you looked down on Shan Chuan. Eventually, you found some excuse to strip him of his department manager position and kicked him out of the company, tossing him a few thousand yuan as a mere gesture."

"You know, at that time, our family relied on Shan Chuan as the sole breadwinner! Mom, tell me, were your actions humane?"

The old lady fell silent, veins on her hands throbbing.

Rebellion, this was outright rebellion!

So, Yang Meifeng, you’ve grown bold, daring to stand up to me!

Just wait. Once Ning’er’s issue is resolved, I’ll see how I don’t take care of you properly!

"Heh, so it’s finally our family’s turn to rise above."

Looking at her daughter Luo Ning, Yang Meifeng showed a proud smile, "Mom, you had Ning’er approach Shengtian Group for a partnership. Not only did she successfully take on the project for the East City Commercial Street, but she also became good friends with President Ling!"

"Now, Luo’s Group managing to secure so many projects from Shengtian Group and other companies, that’s all Ning’er’s achievement!"

"As for you? Heh... just a pile of shit!"

A pile of shit?

Now, even the usually composed old lady couldn’t hold back. She suddenly stood up, ready to confront Yang Meifeng head-on.

Chen Guihua and her daughter Luo Zitong also got angry, balling their fists, ready to lash out at Yang Meifeng.

"Enough!"

Luo Ning suddenly spoke out, stepping in front of her mother, exhaling deeply.

The reason her mother had become so mercenary and greedy was, in fact, out of desperation.

But having worked at Luo’s Group for over six years, Luo Ning had some emotional attachment; she couldn’t bear to watch as Luo’s Group slid into the abyss.

She closed her eyes, and after a long moment, she opened them again, "Grandma, like I said earlier, I won’t be returning to Luo’s Group."

"However, since I was the one who signed the contract with Shengtian Group, I feel obliged to help Luo’s Group complete this project."

"So, I will do my utmost to plead with President Ling, hoping she spares Luo’s Group."

"But I can’t guarantee that she will agree..."
