"Today, we really owe you an apology, mother-in-law." Old Yang could only say this when he saw her reaction.
Land Officer Yang followed up, "We're really sorry, mother-in-law, for any offense today."
But Ms. Luo didn't care about the apologies from the two men, and didn't give them any face, shooing them away with a broom, "Go away, go away, all this nonsense talk. My daughter and son-in-law aren't here, so if they really stole your stuff, whatever needs to be done will be done, but don't drag our Old Luo family into this."
As soon as Yang Chuxia and the others stepped outside, Ms. Luo slammed the gate shut with a bang.
Yang Chuxia was speechless. What kind of mother was she? She didn't even ask any questions when she heard her daughter and son-in-law weren't in the village, just claiming Old Luo's Family had nothing to do with the incident. Indeed, a married daughter is like water spilled out of the house.
