Chapter 865: Second Sister-in-law’s Idea

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

If news of this situation were to spread, their own family would become a laughingstock, which was far from desirable.

Eldest Uncle turned towards Ms. Fang, his voice barely audible as he suggested, “What if we persuade the two couples to admit their mistakes and make a promise? Let’s just… let it go… Our family’s reputation will suffer as well.”

Ms. Niu and Second Uncle expressed their agreement with cheers and nods.

However, Ms. Fang, who had managed to calm herself after venting her anger on Ms. Niu, was once again provoked by Eldest Uncle’s words. She shouted angrily, “No way! You foolish old man, your mind is so muddled! If it weren’t for Taotao’s luck, we would be the ones suffering here! Your brother and sister-in-law are nothing but trash! They were trying to ruin Taotao’s life! And you, you old fool, agree just because of a few tears and insincere words?!”

“What do you truly think of Taotao in your heart? Is she your daughter? Let me tell you, I will never agree to this solution. And ask our sons, do you think they would agree?”

“Taotao has done nothing wrong, and neither have we. What does a mere name matter? There’s no way we will ever agree to it!”

Ms. Fang had no intention of making peace, and she even berated Eldest Uncle, leaving him dumbfounded.

Second Uncle and Ms. Niu were equally stunned.

As Ms. Fang rushed out, the two of them stood frozen, not daring to stop her in any way…

Shao Meiling suddenly jolted awake.

If this matter were to be brought before the clan, the first section of the family would undoubtedly side with their own family, causing them to lose everything!

She shouted, desperation evident in her voice. “It was Second Sister-in-law’s idea, it was all her doing! It has nothing to do with my parents! Elder Aunt, if you want to blame someone, blame Second Sister-in-law! It was her idea!”

Everyone was taken aback, their expressions filled with shock.

Second Uncle and Ms. Niu shared in the same astonishment.

Ms. Fang also came to a halt, turning to face Shao Meiling with a cold gaze.

Shao Meiling recoiled, her voice trembling as she confessed, “I never intended to break off the engagement, but one day, Second Sister-in-law approached me…”

In that moment, Shao Meiling forgot about the promise she had made to Ms.

Zhang. She didn’t even recall the agreement they had reached.

Being a selfish woman who harbored dislike for Ms. Zhang, Shao Meiling felt

no remorse for betraying her. Thus, she divulged every detail without hesitation.

Everyone present.

Ms. Niu nearly screamed in fury, “That wretched woman! I knew it! She always wears a sinister expression and is full of wicked tricks. I want to beat her to death!”

Ms. Fang sneered, her tone dripping with disdain. “Ms. Zhang may have planted the seed, but you willingly accepted her idea, didn’t you? If you hadn’t even entertained the thought, Ms. Zhang’s suggestion would have had no effect on you!”

Shao Meiling covered her face, sobbing uncontrollably. “I just… I just wanted to marry someone better!”

Ms. Fang’s voice turned icy as she responded, “Your mother had found you a suitable match. You aren’t deserving of anyone better! Let me make it clear, if you ever try to benefit from Yunduan’s troubles, I will tear you apart!” Shao Meiling trembled in fear, not daring to utter a single word.

It wouldn’t be long before Ms. Zhang arrived, escorted by others.

Yu Xiaomiao felt a sense of speechlessness in the midst of it all.

There was no need for him to play along anymore. With a polite wave, he bid them farewell and left..
