The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 591: Chapter 591: The Old Lady Scolds the First Madam Chapter 591: Chapter 591: The Old Lady Scolds the First Madam The first Madam Shu huffed coldly, casting a glance toward Mrs. Xue.

“See that, that’s what you call a mother’s love and daughter’s filial piety. She doesn’t care for you, an incompetent stepmother.”

Clearly, the Shu family had already learned about Mrs. Xue trying to secretly establish a good relationship with Shu Yu.

Mrs. Xue’s face still bore the mark of a slap, likely delivered by someone from the Shu family.

Upon hearing the first Madam’s words, Mrs. Xue’s gaze toward Shu Yu filled with hatred, “Some people are just ungrateful wolves no matter how much you raise them.”

Shu Yu lifted her head, smiling ambiguously at the Shu family, “What now, forgotten the pain after a few days without a beating? Ungrateful? Did you ever raise me?”

The Shu family immediately fell silent, and Mrs. Xue’s anger intensified.

Shu Yu averted her gaze and said to Madam Hou, “Then I shall take my leave first.”

Just as Madam Hou was about to nod, an old lady entered from outside, “Yu, why aren’t you ready yet?”

The old lady was truly worried, having waited so long without seeing anyone, she began to fear that the Shu family might be mistreating Yu.

She knew well how the Shu family treated Yu.

Even if Yu said nothing, she could guess with her toes.

Thus, unable to wait any longer when no one appeared, she hastened inside to check.

The members of the Shu family, originally planning to enter the room, paused in surprise upon seeing the unfamiliar old lady and all turned to look at her.

“Who are you?” the eldest daughter asked, frowning.

With one sweep of her eyes, the old lady sized up everyone.

Standing beside Yu must be Madam Hou and the Sixth Young Lady, and the row of women by the living room door must be the malevolent members of the Shu family.

The old lady stepped forward, chest out, “Me? I am Yu’s dear Grandmother. You must be the women of the Shu family, right? Sharp-tongued and mean-spirited, clearly not blessed or attractive. It’s no wonder my Yu ended up here in this dreadful place.”

After a pause, she turned to Madam Hou to explain, “I’m not talking about you.”

She had used several idioms she learned from Dahu, feeling quite satisfied.

This was their first encounter, and the Shu family was already being loudly scolded by this strange old lady using rather impolite language.

First Madam Shu immediately exploded, “What kind of pious old hag are you, coming into someone else’s house to create a scene, have you no manners?”

Shu Yu narrowed her eyes, they dared to insult her Grandmother?

She wanted to retaliate, but her Grandmother stopped her, stepping forward with hands on her hips, “If you had any manners, why would you be exiled here to toil? If you were so mannered, why wouldn’t you wash your face or get rid of that stench that’s enough to kill a person? You think you’re still the high and mighty Madam of Magistrate? Pah, look at yourself now, worse off than a beggar. Really, you are nothing!”

The first Madam was so enraged she nearly keeled over, her head spinning as she pointed at the old lady, unable to utter a word, “You, you…”

“What about me, am I wrong?”

“I will kill you!” The first Madam snapped, glancing around she grabbed a nearby broom and charged.

Shu Yu stepped forward, only to be stopped again by her Grandmother.

She didn’t move, just stood there, and then shouted, “Daniu, get in here.”

Shu Yu, “…”

At the entrance, Zhao Xi felt like he was on the verge of spitting out blood. Holding back the urge to roll his eyes, he dashed inside without another word.
