Having said that, Muniang didn't wait for Mrs. Chui to reply, and with a "whoosh" she stood up and went straight out. She had already endured a lot, but it was met with Mrs. Chui's increasing audacity. Mrs. Lin was soft and easy to manipulate; did she really think they could both be easily bullied? She even had the nerve to target their household, what utter nonsense!
Qinghe felt awkward staying, so she followed Muniang out.
Mrs. Chui stared at Muniang's retreating figure for a good while before she finally reacted. With a wail, she turned her anger towards Mrs. Lin: "How do you discipline your daughter? Look at her lack of respect for her elders. It's true what they say, growing up in the countryside with no upbringing!"
Mrs. Lin was also protective of her daughter and grew angry when Mrs. Chui insulted Muniang. She retorted with a dark expression: "Who are you saying has no upbringing? Don't I know what kind of person Muniang is?"
