However, just as she prepared the hot water, there was an unexpected knock on the door. She thought that the ordered mushrooms had arrived, so she hurriedly put down the work in her hands and ran straight to the door.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the door opened, Wu's mother rushed in without saying a word.

Her eyes met Su's mother's and she was stunned for a moment, especially when she saw the pieces of bacon in the basin. Her eyes flashed with jealousy and unwillingness that were difficult to conceal.

"Ran He is so selfish. On the surface, she is afraid that others will benefit from it, but secretly she brings her family here to enjoy the good life. She has no conscience!"

Mother Wu was indignant. When she thought that Wu Xu also wanted to draw a line between themselves and her, she became even more furious and felt that he was extremely confused.

"Ran He knows how to respect his own mother, but Wu Xu doesn't show any favoritism to me at all. This son has been raised in vain!"

Mother Wu complained in her heart and became more and more agitated.

Faced with the sudden visit of Wu's mother, Su's mother was also stunned at first, but she quickly came to her senses.

She learned about the suffering Yueyue had endured in the Gu family from the villagers' gossip, and her heart was filled with heartache and helplessness. Who could truly understand those unknown hardships except Ran He herself?

Su's mother had long given up any thoughts about relatives like Wu's mother.

"What brings you to my house?"

Su's mother's voice was cold but with unquestionable authority, and her eyes showed her dislike and vigilance towards this uninvited guest.

When Wu's mother heard this, she immediately flew into a rage. Her voice suddenly rose, as if a firecracker had been lit: "Is this your He family's territory, or my Su family's? As a relative, I came to see my daughter. Do I have to be criticized by you? Look at you, a married woman living in my daughter's house. Aren't you afraid that the neighbors will poke holes in your back and laugh at you for being shameless? I see, you are jealous of my daughter's good life, so you shamelessly come here to take advantage of her glory. You are such a sticky old man that you can't get rid of it!"

Her words came like a string of rapid fire, full of force and intensity.

Although Ran He was not present, Su's mother became the target of her attack. Su's mother had always been gentle and could not withstand the impact of such words. Her face suddenly turned red and white, her lips stammered, but she could not utter a word, and tears of grievance flashed in her eyes.

At this time, Ran Ping happened to be busy fetching water in the kitchen. Hearing the dispute outside, he immediately put down his carrying pole and hurried out to support his mother.

His sister Ran He was not at home, so as a younger brother, he naturally had to step forward and send the annoying mother Wu away first, so that she would not speak without restraint and say more unbearable words.

Wang Hong was awakened by the noise outside and walked out of the room with sleepy eyes.

At the time of Ran He's wedding, she had not yet married into the family and had never met Wu's mother, so naturally she had no idea of ​​her character.

When Wang Hong first heard that Ran He had severed ties with the Gu family, she thought that Ran He acted too hastily.

But after encountering difficulties from Wu's mother several times, she gradually understood the difficulties faced by Gu's family. She thought that Ran He looked down on his poor relatives because his living conditions had improved, so she decisively severed the ties of family affection.

"Oh, my God, you are so arrogant. It's not enough for you to come to me, you have to bring your family with you. It seems that I misunderstood you before. I should say that your whole family is a blood-sucking mosquito. Could it be that you saw your daughter's success and wanted to pull your son to share in the pie? Humph!"

Wang Hong's words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire. Wu's mother has always been fierce, and since Ran He is not here at the moment, no one can suppress her.

In front of her, Su's mother and Ran Ping were like children encountering a tiger, and they were completely defenseless.

Su's mother felt extremely aggrieved, with tears welling up in her eyes. She came only because she missed her daughter, and was definitely not greedy for money as Wu's mother said.

Ran Ping tightly grasped his mother's hand, his face flushed with anxiety, but he could not refute a word and was extremely worried.

Mother Wu was upset with Ran He, and now she finally found an outlet to vent her anger at her mother-in-law's house. She looked very proud, and her nostrils were almost upturned.

"Oh, you've been wronged by Ran He, don't take it out on us. I've always felt that Ran He is heartless and ungrateful. After he became rich, he wanted to draw a clear line between himself and our Gu family. He is extremely selfish."

Wang Hong couldn't stand it anymore. It was ok for Wu's mother to be sarcastic, but how could she use them as a punching bag to vent her dissatisfaction with Ran He?

I thought everyone would say good things about Ran He when they got together, but I didn't expect that there would be people criticizing Ran He. Wu's mother looked Wang Hong up and down and guessed that since she was Su's mother's daughter-in-law, her words should carry some weight.

If she could make a scene in front of the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, maybe Ran He would give her some face, and the relationship between the two families would be eased.

So, Wu's mother changed her expression instantly, put on a smile, and moved closer to Wang Hong: "Oh, you can't say that, how could I target you? It's mainly because Ran He is too ruthless. She disdains her husband's family, but dotes on her own family. As a mother-in-law, I feel love and hatred for her, so it's inevitable that I have a bad temper. Please bear with me."

Wang Hong's vanity was greatly satisfied. She waved her hands and pretended to be generous, "Forget it. You were just impulsive."

She seemed tolerant and generous, but the real victims, Su's mother and Ran Ping, had not yet had a chance to speak.

"Nonsense! My Yueyue is the most soft-hearted and kindhearted person. How could she be so heartless? It's obviously because you did something wrong that she ignored you. Now you are the first to complain!"

Although Su's mother was not good at arguing, she would never tolerate anyone criticizing her daughter.

"Tsk, like mother, like daughter. Look at your mouth full of grease. It must be you who instigated Ran He to do this! I was wondering how a girl could have the courage to break off relations with her in-laws. It turns out that she listened to your mother's advice!"

Mother Wu insisted that it was Mother Su who was behind all this and poured all her anger out on Mother Su.

"That's enough, come in!"

Wu Xu's voice was low and powerful, filled with suppressed anger.

If it weren't for the purpose of hiding his true identity, he would have ordered Yan Qin to kick out Wu's mother long ago, and would not have allowed her to be so arrogant here.

Mother Wu stepped over the threshold, thinking about the purpose of her trip. She snorted contemptuously at Mother Su and strode into the house.

Although she firmly believed that Su's mother was the mastermind behind the incident, Ran He was not an easy person to deal with. Once she knew about it, she would definitely protect her mother's family.

Therefore, she decided to make a quick decision, finish her business and then leave.

Wang Hong followed closely behind, with a heart that wanted to watch the fun and not mind getting involved, and quietly approached the door, intending to eavesdrop on the conversation between the mother and son.

If Wu's mother really came to ask Wu Xu for money, then she would take this opportunity to fan the flames in front of Ran He, further intensifying the conflict between the two families.
