She was the last one to arrive at the restaurant. When the meal started, she saw several people washing their hands, but Gu Nuannuan picked up her chopsticks and started eating without waiting for Mr. Jiang to speak.
Jiang Chenyu sat to the side, his heart beating faster.
He didn't know when Gu Nuannuan started having such a big impact on his heart rate.
Taking this opportunity, Wei Aihua took the lead in making trouble, "Gu Nuannuan, do you understand the rules? You have to wash your hands before eating. Didn't your parents teach you?"
*Pa!* Gu Nuannuan slammed the chopsticks on the table. She raised her eyes and stared at Wei Aihua. "Sister-in-law, is it because the wound on your face is almost healed that you've forgotten the pain?"
It would have been fine if she hadn't brought this up, but mentioning it only made her angrier.
Wei Aihua couldn't control her rage. She stood up angrily and pointed at Gu Nuannuan's nose. "You, you... This family can only have you or me!"
"I see that my sister-in-law is so angry at her age. You must have reached menopause. Last year, my grandmother drank Jingxin oral liquid during her menopause, and it was quite effective. I recommend that my sister-in-law buy a box and drink it."
Gu Nuannuan's words infuriated Wei Aihua. Mayor Jiang closed his eyes in disappointment. Every time his wife picked a fight with Gu Nuannuan, she ended up being humiliated.
She still hadn't learned her lesson.
Just as Wei Aihua was about to insult Gu Nuannuan, Mr. Jiang, from the main seat, said, "Enough!"
Mr. Jiang said, "Gu Nuannuan, apologize to your sister-in-law."
"What should I apologize for? She was the first to insult me."
Gu Nuannuan had deliberately avoided quarrels, so she hadn't gone out or seen anyone. She spent the whole day alone in the master bedroom, which was dozens of square meters.
However, Wei Aihua had provoked her by bringing up her parents.
She didn't want to cause trouble, but trouble kept knocking on her door.
Gu Nuannuan considered the people in the Jiang family.
As for her husband, Jiang Chenyu, he was indifferent and simply watched the situation unfold.
Mayor Jiang and Wei Aihua were husband and wife, so naturally, he protected his wife.
Jiang Lao and Wei Aihua had been family for many years, and she, Gu Nuannuan, was an outsider. How could she expect Jiang Lao to be fair?
If he were truly fair, he would have taken Wei Aihua to apologize to the Gu family.
Gu Nuannuan couldn't understand why she kept making Wei Aihua unhappy.
It seemed that she and Wei Aihua had become mortal enemies without even realizing it.
Old Jiang couldn't stand Gu Nuannuan arguing with him so stubbornly. "Look, ever since you came in, this house has been in a mess every day. Why don't you curb your temper, Gu Nuannuan? I've indulged you long enough."
Gu Nuannuan sneered. "Indulge? Thank you for your indulgence, but I don't need it."
"Gu Nuannuan! Do you understand what respect is?!"
"Respect is based on mutual respect. Let me ask you, do you respect me?"
Old Jiang shot back, "Why wouldn't I?"
"Where have you shown respect?"
Gu Nuannuan's question left no one in the Jiang family with an answer.
After a while, Old Jiang's face flushed, and he recited word by word, "The Jiang family's teaching is that the elders are in charge. Since you are a member of the Jiang family, you must abide by this teaching and apologize to your sister-in-law."
Wei Aihua watched Gu Nuannuan being scolded by Old Jiang, her face full of pride.
Gu Nuannuan looked at her, clenched her fists, and said to Wei Aihua angrily, "I'm sorry."
Old Jiang's anger gradually subsided, and Wei Aihua smiled.
"But when will my sister-in-law apologize to my parents? Since the Jiang family has the rule that elders are in charge, let me ask, when will my sister-in-law fulfill this rule?"
Wei Aihua replied, "Don't even think about it. Your mother is younger than me. It's impossible for me to apologize."
