Chapter 63: It's All Thanks to Mom and Dad's Teaching

Xiao Jiliang looked at Su An warily, "I, I am your mother-in-law..."

Su An's eyes were cold.

In this life, no one could use the excuse of being an elder or older to morally blackmail her.

In her previous life, she had been ruined by those so-called familial morals.

This life, she would only yield to the principle that "the dead are the greatest."

After all, they're dead, and she couldn't chase them down to take revenge.

As for those who used "I'm your mother," "I'm your father," "I'm your grandmother," "I'm older," or "I'm your elder" to force her to give in, they could all go to hell.

She was young too, and it should be others giving way to her.

Seeing that Xiao Jiliang had lost control of her expression, Su An revealed a wolfish grin, "Oh, old woman, what are you afraid of?"

"You know, I'm known for being very reasonable. We could have just talked things out nicely, but you had to make such a big fuss. Look, it's you who ended up at a disadvantage."

Xiao Jiliang's brain froze!!!

Su An, claiming to be reasonable?

Su An then walked over to Zhao Xiaoyu and helped the still wailing Zhao Xiaoyu sit on a stool.

Xiao Jiliang eyed Su An warily, what was this wicked woman planning now?

"Mom, wuwuwu, mom, quickly, please get me a wet towel to soothe it, it hurts, it hurts so much..."

Zhao Xiaoyu's eyes were still too painful to open, and every time she tried to open them a little, the pain made her close them instinctively, her voice half-dead from the agony.

Xiao Jiliang cautiously glanced at Su An, who was sitting on the table, amusedly playing with her fingers.

She cautiously stepped back a few paces.

Seeing that Su An wasn’t reacting or paying attention to her, Xiao Jiliang relaxed and went to fetch a cloth.

After applying a cold towel for five or six minutes, Zhao Xiaoyu finally began to calm down. Although her eyes were still uncontrollably blinking and tearing, she could at least open them a little to see the people around her.

She warily glanced at Su An; this cruel woman was ruthless.

Su An said lightly, "You see, this is much better. Why are young people so aggressive these days? I'm just a well-behaved girl who married into your family. It's unfamiliar territory for me here. Your loud voices scared me—what if something had happened?"

Xiao Jiliang's lips involuntarily twitched.

Zhao Xiaoyu sized up Su An, indeed a delicate young girl who probably didn't even weigh eighty pounds soaking wet.

The loss she just suffered must have been an accident!

Zhao Xiaoyu regained her confidence, "So you want to talk sense? Let me tell you, no matter how you spin it, you're in the wrong!"

"Let me ask you, is it true that you beat up my brother who's in the hospital? Did you injure my nephews and nieces? And my mom, my mom..."

Zhao Xiaoyu, excitedly grabbing Xiao Jiliang, was ready to confront Su An.

"Look at my mom, you've only been in our family for a few days and you've already bullied and pressured my mom to this extent. Let me tell you, Su An, don't push your luck—do you really think the Zhao family has no one left to stand up to you?"

Su An elegantly wiped the saliva that Zhao Xiaoyu had sprayed onto her hand with a handkerchief.

"You can ask these questions one at a time. Yes, I hit your brother. But between husband and wife, fighting and quarreling is the most normal thing. Isn't that how every family deals with it? Why is it such a big deal for your family? Doesn't Zhao Daxing fight with his previous wives?"

Zhao Xiaoyu's throat tightened, and her face slowly turned red.

Of course, there had been fights with Lili, but it was always Zhao Daxing and his mother beating Lili one-sidedly.

Su An looked up. "As for Zhao Long and Zhao Hu, yes, the injuries on them are related to me. I'm their mother. Isn't it normal for me to discipline my disobedient children?"

"Go ask around the neighborhood. Which child doesn't get beaten? Why is it that in your Zhao family, they become so precious? Tsk tsk, look at you, pointing fingers like that."

Su An's tone was full of disdain, as if they were country bumpkins who had never seen the world, which infuriated Zhao Xiaoyu.

Before Zhao Xiaoyu could respond, Su An looked up at Xiao Jiliang with a meaningful expression. "And as for you, old lady, it's normal for a newly married daughter-in-law to need some adjustment period with her mother-in-law, isn't it? If we don't adjust to each other, how will we ever get along? We still have a long life ahead of us."

Hearing Su An's drawn-out tone, Xiao Jiliang felt a chill run down her spine for no reason.

Zhao Xiaoyu snorted coldly. "You still have the audacity to defend yourself? Which family beats their spouse to death when they quarrel? Who 'adjusts' with their mother-in-law by defecating on her bed in the middle of the night? If the child did something wrong, can't you teach them properly? It's because they'not your own children that you don't care! I see how heartless you are!"

"Is this how your family raised you? Stirring up trouble for no reason, being unreasonable, being unfilial to your elders, and unkind to your juniors..."

"And you even dared to steal money from the family to buy a coffin for your father?"

Zhao Xiaoyu rattled off a dozen accusations against Su An in one breath, as if Su An was an extremely evil person.

Su An remained unmoved, her face full of innocence. "What did I do wrong?"

"This is what my parents taught me. They said that a woman is an outsider in her husband's family, and her natal family is her true home. Everything you eat, drink, and use should go back to your natal family. Without the support of your natal brothers, a woman would be bullied to death."

To prove that she was right, Su An even brought up her own mother.

"My birth mother didn’t have any brothers to support her from afar. You see, my father discarded her when he said he didn't want her anymore."

Upon saying this, Su An quickly shook her head. "No, I can't end up like my birth mother. I need to be compliant."

"And my stepmother also said that with your family's three children, will there be any room for my future children? Can Zhao Daxing’s salary really support so many kids? Even if it can, they're still an eyesore to me."

"My stepmother is living the good life now. She’s a smart person, and I should learn from her."

"Besides, you all keep saying I'm wrong about this and that. Isn't that just ganging up on me? Let me tell you, I'm not scared of you. I'm not one of those women without the support of her natal family. You'd better be polite to me."

"My parents from my natal family taught me these things. Wouldn't they want the best for me? I don't believe your nonsense. You're the ones who are a family, ganging up to deceive me."

Xiao Jiliang was furious, her head spinning.

Finally, the culprit had been found!

She had wondered how they ended up with such an extraordinary weirdo. The root of the problem was here!

"Su An, what about my money? The over two thousand yuan you took from my savings account?"

Su An seemed too timid to meet Xiao Jiliang's gaze.

She said weakly, "Isn't it obvious? My own brother isn't very bright. My parents said that I'll have to rely on my younger brother from my natal family in the future. My younger brother is still young and growing. He needs to eat well, dress well, and play games. He spends quite a bit of money every day..."
