"You're wrong," Shen Yunfang said after listening to Dashuan's wife recount the entire matter, then asserted firmly.
"I'm wrong? Where exactly did I go wrong?" Dashuan's wife felt somewhat indignant, wondering why Yunfang would think that too.
"Let me ask you, who has control over your family's money?" Shen Yunfang asked bluntly.
"It's with me, but I've never spent it recklessly. Whenever I spend money, I discuss it with my family," Dashuan's wife quickly explained. Although she was in charge of the money, it was always Dashuan who spent it, and she would consult with her mother-in-law about major household expenses.
"So, you see, this is exactly where you went wrong," Shen Yunfang nodded, indicating that indeed she had made a mistake, a grave one at that.
Dashuan's wife had a look of confusion on her face.
Shen Yunfang felt a mix of frustration and disappointment towards her. Why had she ever thought Dashuan's wife was wise? In reality, she was just as confused.
