Song Chunli was on the verge of tears after being scolded by Old Madam Huo. Ever since she had married into the Huo Family and had disputes with her mother-in-law, not once had she come out on top. Each time she was forced to recognize her own faults and inadequacies.
"Mom, I know I was wrong, and I won't say it again." Song Chunli said, wiping away her tears before rising to go upstairs.
Seeing that she had left, Old Madam Huo let out a long sigh, "Ah, were my words just now a bit too harsh?"
Jiang Lifang didn't know how to answer. It wasn't a good answer either way, yes or no.
Old Madam Huo had always known that her second daughter-in-law was astute, evident from her current behavior. She knew what to say and what not to say, whereas the eldest daughter-in-law sometimes didn't grasp these things clearly.
And this was still within the family; there would be no outside gossip.
If such things were said outside, what would people make of the Huo Family!
