Zhang Aixia and her son were not the only ones in the room. Hao Xiumei and her son were also present. However, when they heard their brother-in-law open his mouth, they were so frightened that they quickly kept quiet. They were so afraid that Lu Wei would notice them.
At this moment, there was a woman. She was quite thin and weak. Her looks were not good either. She could only be considered delicate and pretty. However, she spoke gently and carefully. She brought a few cups of tea over and said, "Sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, have some tea."
After putting down the tea, she said to the old lady, "Mom, I've already called the treatment room. I'll probably be there in a while."
The old lady nodded. "Xiulian is thoughtful."
At this moment, the woman called Xiulian smiled and said, "Mom, Brother Wei, who is this beautiful lady? Is she Yichen's daughter-in-law?"
As soon as she said that, everyone looked at Kang Xiaoqiao. Instantly, Kang Xiaoqiao received the murderous looks from several people. It was as if they wanted to skin Kang Xiaoqiao alive.
The first time Old Lady Lu saw Kang Xiaoqiao, displeasure flashed through her eyes. Especially when she saw the dress Kang Xiaoqiao was wearing, she said, "She has no rules at all. She's a guest. Where would she wear a white dress?"
This was absolute disdain. Zhang Aixia probably knew that this would happen, while Hao Xiumei looked like she was venting her anger and waiting to watch a good show.
Hmph, this was the little slut who caused her son's leg to be broken. She was really good-looking. No wonder that brat Lu Yichen was willing to marry her.
The first time she met an elder, it wasn't a friendly greeting or a cordial greeting. Instead, it was picking on her faults.
Kang Xiaoqiao finally understood. It was already a foregone conclusion that the Lu family didn't welcome her. However, she didn't understand why they called her over since they didn't welcome her?
Could it be that they wanted to humiliate her?
When Kang Xiaoqiao thought of this, her face did not look too good. Her eyes were filled with coldness, just like her voice.
Then, she heard a voice that was as cool as a mountain spring saying, "Rules?"
"Compared to you, I'm still far from it."
"Isn't that right? How could I have the time to change my clothes when I was brought here for no reason After that, I was not allowed to enter the house. Hehe. I, Kang Xiaoqiao, am so old, but this was the first time I have seen such a person."
The sarcasm in her tone was not too obvious.
When the old lady heard this, she was furious. She immediately threw the teacup in her hand out and headed straight for Kang Xiaoqiao. When Kang Xiaoqiao saw this, she picked up the teacup beside her and flew out as well. Following that, there were two cracking sounds.
Everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events. Oh my god, this Kang Xiaoqiao...
The old lady was so angry that her face turned red and her neck was thick as she said, "This is really going against the heavens, going against the heavens..."
When Zhang Aixia saw this, she quickly shouted angrily at Kang Xiaoqiao. "Why aren't you kneeling down and apologizing to the old lady?"
Although Hao Xiumei was slower by half a beat, she also hurriedly shouted, "Where did this wild girl come from? How dare she talk back to the old lady? Why aren't you kneeling down?"
At this moment, the woman called Xiulian quickly ran over and gently pulled Kang Xiaoqiao's arm. "Yichen's wife, quickly kneel down. Don't make the old lady angry anymore."
Kang Xiaoqiao looked at the faces of the people in the room, then looked at the woman called Xiulian in front of her. She didn't look like Lu Yichen at all, and she was completely different from the picture of her mother-in-law that Lu Yichen showed her, so... This person was not her mother-in-law.
Kang Xiaoqiao narrowed her eyes and looked at Lu Wei again. He had a cold expression on his face at the moment. He frowned but didn't say anything, which meant that he tacitly agreed.
The corner of Kang Xiaoqiao's mouth curled up. She pushed away Xiulian's hand and said with an ice-cold gaze, "Kneel down and admit my mistake? What a joke."
"It's said that men have gold under their knees. Although I'm a woman, I'm not inferior to men. The people in this world who can afford to kneel to me, kneel to heaven, kneel to earth, kneel to my parents' benefactor, what do you have in this world?"
When the old lady heard this, she was so angry that her head was smoking. This was outrageous. It had been so many years, and no one dared to contradict her. Did they really see that she was getting old?
Therefore... She narrowed her eyes and said, "You are quite proud. Humph, this little bit of pride is better than feeding the dog. You don't respect your elders, you are unfilial, how can you be a child? How can you be a daughter-in-law? Didn't your parents teach you? How can such an uneducated girl be worthy to be the daughter-in-law of my Lu family?"
After hearing this, Kang Xiaoqiao felt that her teeth hurt. What era was this?
Why did this old lady's actions make Kang Xiaoqiao feel so awkward?
When the old lady finished speaking, everyone looked like she had a point. Everyone looked at Kang Xiaoqiao with gloating expressions, as if something terrible was about to happen.
Kang Xiaoqiao looked around and said with a cold expression, "I don't need you to worry about my upbringing. However, with your actions, I really can't tell where your upbringing comes from."
"This is a new society. It's democratic, free, and people-oriented. Those old customs have long been overturned and broken. Whether or not I'm worthy to be your Lu family's daughter-in-law is not up to you. The person I'm marrying is Lu Yichen, not an old grandma like you."
"This person is old. She should enjoy her old age. Do you know why my grandmother lived to be 112 years old?"
When Kang Xiaoqiao said this, everyone was stunned. What did what everyone was discussing have to do with your grandmother living to be 112 years old?
Unfortunately, there were really people who were stupid. Lu Yixing asked curiously, "Why?"
Kang Xiaoqiao glanced at him coldly and said, "That's because she never meddled in other people's business."
Pfft--
Her words almost made Lu Yixing spit out a mouthful of blood. Meanwhile, the old lady and the others were really angered. Just as everyone was stunned, the old lady slammed the table and shouted, "This is really going against the heavens."
"Third brother, please add--"
When the old lady's words fell, everyone's expression changed. Zhang Aixia's pupils shrank, while Lu Yixing and Lu Yimin were so frightened that they swallowed their saliva.
Of course, they knew what the Lu family's Family Law was. If they were hit on the body, even if they didn't die, they would at least lose a layer of skin.
Then, the two of them looked at Kang Xiaoqiao's delicate skin and flesh, and a bloody scene appeared in their eyes.
They fiercely shivered, trying their best to reduce their presence.
When Lu Wei, who was called third, heard this, he furrowed his brows. Then, he said in disapproval, "Mom, Yichen's daughter-in-law is young and impetuous. She doesn't know her limits for a moment. I'll let her apologize to you. As for the Family Law, let's forget about it, shall we?"
When the old lady heard this, a fierce look flashed across her eyes. "Third, are you starting to disobey me too?"
"Since this wretched girl has married into our Lu family, she has to abide by the Lu family's rules. Not only did she not come back to visit this old woman when she arrived in the capital, she even had to be urged on three or four times. It's not enough that she hit a big brother-in-law, but she hit another one at the door. Do you think I'm really old and muddle-headed? Can't you hear me?"
"Now that she sees me, she still dares to speak back and doesn't have any intention of repentance. Do you still want to protect her?"
