Zhang Yali looked at their welcome ceremony coldly and proudly, feeling dissatisfied. This second lady reminded her that there was Cai Xiufen competing with her inside.
Although these people did not dare to look up at their faces, Cai Xiufen inside must be waiting to see her joke.
Zhang Yali lowered the brim of her hat and said to Mu Shaoling, "Let's go in with me."
In this family, the one she can rely on most now is Mu Shaoling.
Seeing that she didn't have the courage to walk in, Mu Shaoling remained silent, made a gesture to the housekeeper, and then followed her in.
After seeing the hint, the housekeeper dismissed the servants who were still there for the welcoming ceremony.
The living room of Mu's old house.
Cai Xiufen was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup of scented tea and drinking it elegantly. She looked at the woman walking in from the door and said with a smile: "Why did the housekeeper gather all the nannies together in such a big way today?"
, so it turns out you were released from prison?"
Zhang Yali glanced coldly in her direction, remained silent, and prepared to walk upstairs.
In her current state, quarreling with Cai Xiufen is not a wise choice. She has to hide her strength and bide her time, and fight for what belongs to her when the time comes.
Cai Xiufen saw that she was trying to avoid arguing with her, so she cleared her throat and said, "You came back, but you didn't say hello to the old man. Is it appropriate?"
Zhang Yali stopped in her tracks. During the years when she was sent to prison, she felt resentful towards Mu Shaoling and Mr. Mu.
As a son, he personally sent her to jail, while Mr. Mu kept pursuing the matter.
If they were to be more generous and not pursue her further, she wouldn't have to suffer so much.
Mu Shaoling glanced at Mr. Mu who was sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face. The old man agreed to let her move back because he didn't want her to be disrespectful by living outside.
This is also a sign of magnanimity. He will not pursue the past, but he is very dissatisfied with Zhang Yali's current performance.
What Mr. Mu values most is rules.
"Mother." Mu Shaoling called out, hinting in a low voice that even if he was mentally prepared, he would not be happy to see Zhang Yali having conflicts with everyone at home on the first day she was released from prison.
Zhang Yali knew what his call meant, and turned around impatiently, cursing Mr. Mu and Cai Xiufen in her heart, but she still greeted: "Dad, good morning, I'm back, and I will definitely do my best in the future."
As a daughter-in-law, I should respect you well."
"Yes." Mr. Mu didn't say much and nodded, knowing that she was reluctant, but this greeting and assurance at least gave her face.
Cai Xiufen listened to her words and sneered, her eyebrows full of provocation, "It's funny, modern times are all about monogamy. Mu Zhen's legal wife is me, so my father's daughter-in-law is actually only me.
Why is there an extra daughter-in-law?"
Zhang Yali clenched her fists. She and Cai Xiufen had been arguing about this issue for decades. Now it was brought up again. She snorted coldly, "I am Shaoling's mother. Shaoling is the grandson of the old man. I am the old man."
My daughter-in-law, what? Do you have any objections? Even if you have any objections, don’t think about it. Shaoling is the eldest grandson of the Mu family, and I am Shaoling’s mother. This is the fact and cannot be erased."
With a "clang", Cai Xiufen put the cup on the coffee table, "You are Shao Ling's mother, so what? If you really regard this place as your own home, you won't arrange for people to steal things here and cause harm.
My Tianyu has a scar on his forehead. To be honest, you were released from prison today and still have the nerve to come back to this house. I admire your shamelessness from the bottom of my heart."
She has long been dissatisfied with Zhang Yali, and now she will take advantage of the opportunity to attack her severely.
Mr. Mu heard that the two of them started to attack each other without being quiet for a few seconds. He felt very tired and stood up and said: "Okay, the matter is over, why are you arguing?"
"Dad, you also saw the wound on Tianyu's forehead back then. If Ruirui hadn't taken the child to Korea for repair surgery, the child would have been disfigured. What's wrong with me saying a few words now? What I said really didn't matter.
It's as false as what she said!" Cai Xiufen looked at Zhang Yali resentfully.
Why was she released after just a few years in prison?
Cai Xiufen wishes Zhang Yali could be imprisoned for the rest of her life!
Mr. Mu stared at her, "Do you have to make a fuss until everyone knows about it to be happy?"
The Mu family was extremely embarrassed to have such a self-indulgent daughter-in-law like Zhang Yali. Fortunately, Mu Shaoling worked hard and pushed T Group to another level in these years. This calmed down the farce in the Mu family and attracted people's attention.
The power once again falls on the T Group, not on the Mu family.
Cai Xiufen snorted coldly, thinking that the old man's attempt to calm things down was actually helping Zhang Yali, and she was even more dissatisfied. She stared at her fiercely. She was just a disfigured waste. Why were you so protective? Wasn't she just giving birth to a child?
He is just a son who knows how to seize opportunities.
Zhang Yali looked at the old man who looked like he wanted to put things to rest, but she was wise enough not to say anything else.
Now the entire Mu family does not belong to Mu Shaoling, but is still in the hands of Mr. Mu. She has to live here, so she has to endure some things.
Moreover, after what happened in the past, she did not expect Mu Shaoling to help her. The sons born to others were all considerate and stood on the mother's side, while Mu Shaoling always stood by Ruan Bai who followed him.
Over there, in this home, she seems to have support, but in fact she is completely helpless.
Therefore, she had to endure it, at least not to argue with Zhang Yali when the old man was impatient.
"I'm tired. If there's nothing wrong, I'll go upstairs first." Zhang Yali glared at her fiercely. After all, she was covered by a hat, so others couldn't see her expression.
"Go, your bedroom is still the same. The housekeeper has already packed everything. If you need anything, just ask him to prepare it." Mr. Mu's tone was neither cold nor indifferent. Even though he was dissatisfied with Zhang Yali a lot, she was still dead.
The romantic debt caused by her son was still Mu Shaoling's mother. He should give her enough.
Cai Xiufen looked at her back going upstairs and said dissatisfiedly: "I don't know who she got that arrogant look from. What is she dragging around at home? What are you pretending to do if you don't take off your hat?"
Mr. Mu stared at her, and after making sure that Zhang Yali couldn't hear her when she went upstairs, he said: "Don't you know why she is wearing a hat? What this family needs now is peace. Watch your mouth and don't turn this place upside down.
of."
After saying that, the old man stood up and said to Mu Shaoling: "Shaoling, come to my study."
"Yeah." Mu Shaoling followed the old man and left.
Cai Xiufen sat on the sofa again, picked up the cold scented tea, put it down again, and muttered in a low voice, "What the hell."
