Soon, Mrs. Huang arrived at the Lei mansion. Yi Chunhua greeted her with a smile and welcomed her.
"Please come in, Mrs. Huang. Let's have a cup of tea together," Yi Chunhua invited Mrs. Huang.
However, Mrs. Huang rejected firmly, "Mrs. Lei, I am sorry but I can't accompany you today. I am here just to pick Xiao Ling up. And we have to leave soon. Too many preparations of the engagement are incomplete and I have to take care of it."
"Okay, no problem, Mrs. Huang," Yi Chunhua replied with a smile, "We will have many chances to spend time with each other in the future."
"Yes," Mrs. Huang smiled and was about to leave when she saw Kai Ming faltering across the living room in the influence of alcohol. Everyone in the living room saw this and their expressions turned awkward.
Yi Chunhua glanced at Mrs. Huang and saw her discomfort. This caused Yi Chunhua's heart fill with anger and indignation. She assumed that Kai Ming was doing everything deliberately. The latter could not see anything good happening to their family and thus was trying to sabotage the relation between Lei and the Huang families.
Thus, as soon as Mrs. Huang left with Huang Ling, Yi Chunhua confronted Kai Ming, "Sister-in-law, what are you trying to do? If you are intoxicated, then you should not appear in front of Mrs. Huang. Are you trying to embarrass me?"
Kai Ming's face was downcast. She pleaded, "Please let me be, sister-in-law. It's no big deal."
Yi Chunhua shouted, "It's no big deal? Yes, it's not a big deal for you but it is a big deal for me. It's my son's wedding. The 150-billion-yuan deal is my Junshan's. I can understand that you have to get drunk to suppress the jealousy in your heart."
Kai Ming rebuked, "How can you even think like that, Yi Chunhua? Why would I get jealous of Junshan's happiness? He is like a son to me."
Yi Chunhua did not believe Kai Ming, "Sister-in-law, don't try to fool me. I can clearly see how jealous you are on seeing my daughter-in-law."
Kai Ming chuckled in a sarcastic way, "Frankly speaking, other than you, nobody else is interested in your daughter-in-law."
Yi Chunhua laughed, "Yes, I am interested in my daughter-in-law's matters. This is because I have one. But what about you? Do you have a daughter-in-law? No! How can you have one? Both of your sons are useless."
"Speaking to you is a total waste of time," Kai Ming said to Yi Chunhua, "Talking to you is like throwing a stone in mud."
"Mud? Are you calling me mud?" Yi Chunhua roared furiously, "Even if I am mud, I am in the condition to speak properly. But what about you? You can't even walk properly. Always under the influence of alcohol, you can neither talk nor walk properly."
"Yi Chunhua," Lei Zhong heard his wife humiliating his sister-in-law as soon as he entered the house, "Shut your mouth, please."
Yi Chunhua got even more infuriated when her husband told her to shut up. She rebuked in anger, "I won't shut up. What will you do?"
Kai Ming looked at Lei Zhong, "Brother-in-law, do you see how rude your wife is?"
Lei Zhong sighed, "Sister-in-law please, at least you should understand."
"Why should I understand?" Kai Ming replied.
Lei Gang, who had come in with Lei Zhong, smirked, "This is your problem, Lei Zhong. Whenever you ask for something, it's like you are begging for it. This is why your own wife doesn't listen to you. And because you don't have any control over her, she is going haywire."
Yi Chunhua's anger skyrocketed when she heard Lei Gang's words, "Elder brother-in-law, instead of lecturing my husband, you should talk some sense to your children. On one side, you have your younger son, Lei Junmo who does nothing but play around with women. And on other side is your elder son, Lei Juncheng. He was following his mother's actions by gambling and drinking all day. If not for my Junshan who took him for rehabilitation, his life would have been ruined. An alcoholic mother's alcoholic son!"
Slap!
Kai Ming's chest heaved up and down as she slapped Yi Chunhua in rage.
Tears glistened in Yi Chunhua's eyes as she gritted her teeth, "Sister-in-law, the slap you gave me today, I will not forget it, nor would I let you forget it."
Lei Zhong was also angered. He said to Kai Ming, "Sister-in-law, you and Chunhua arguing with each other was still tolerable, but you should not have raised hand on my wife. It is very difficult to stay with you guys in this house from now on."
Lei Gang smiled, "It had always been difficult for me to live with you, Lei Zhong. It's good that you said it yourself. We should live separately from now on."
"You are absolutely right, brother-in-law, we should live separately from…"
Yi Chunhua suddenly stopped speaking when she saw Lei Junshan and Grandma Lei standing in the doorway. Meanwhile, Lei Juncheng who had heard everything from his room also stepped out.
