The daughter-in-law was bewildered by a scolding from her sister-in-law in the next room, leaving Li Xiuli with a stomach full of anger.
However—
Since the elder sister-in-law had apologized, she could only suppress the fury in her heart.
After all, they were family, and saying too much would only hurt feelings.
Li Xiuli managed a reluctant smile, saying, "How could Xinrou, the junior, withstand your 'sorry', big sister-in-law? Don't be such a stranger. After all, even teeth can bite the lips, it's nothing."
Gao Ping felt embarrassed and nodded, then she also left.
After the people of the first branch left, Zhou Mei finally managed to peel away Lin Qingshui's rough hands that covered her mouth.
"Lin Qingshui, what's wrong with you? Why won't you let me speak!"
"That damn woman Guo Xiu even dares to bully our second branch's people, I have to torture her a hundred times!"
"Damn it, I'm so pissed off!" Zhou Mei raged.
She was one to protect her own.
