In the era of rebirth, the charming daughter-in-law in the courtyard is beautiful and sassy.

Not far from the courtyard gate, Huo Qianjin said, "Sister-in-law, you really shouldn't have said those words today."

Duan Zhuangyu was about to say something, but Huo Qianjin raised his hand to interrupt her: "Didn't Gao Di tell you about the family situation? When Aunt Jiang came in, Gao Di was already four or five years old. He could remember things a long time ago. Before Aunt Jiang came in, my father put all the things my mother left behind in a small box and sealed them up. Only Gao Di and I had the key until we became adults, when my father decided to give it to my two brothers.

It's not just us, it's the same for my older brother and sister. My father only gave them the relics left by my aunt, so there is no such thing as fairness or unfairness in our family.

In addition, after Aunt Jiang came into the family, she prepared an account book for Dad’s salary, and she kept a clear record of the family’s income and expenditure, and she did not hide anything from us.”

Seeing Duan Zhuangyu's unhappy expression, he continued, "You've been married for nine years. I think you should know who Aunt Jiang is. I didn't explain this to you clearly because Gao Di was used to it. Later, you and Gao Di can prepare a gift and go to Aunt Jiang's house to apologize. Then this matter will be over. Don't talk nonsense again in the future."

Although Duan Zhuangyu felt uncomfortable, he did not dare to refute: "I understand."

The four of them walked out of the compound and separated.

Seeing that Huo Gaodi had been ignoring her, Duan Zhuangyu said guiltily, "Gaodi, you can't blame me for everything that happened today. After all, you didn't tell me about your family."

Now that there was no one else around, Huo Gaodi’s face became even darker: “Duan Zhuangyu, I was too indulgent with you, wasn’t I? Although I didn’t explain in detail, don’t you know best what’s going on at home?
After you got married, I handed over all my belongings to you. When you said this today, don’t you think you were being unreasonable?

Besides, I told you before that I haven't paid any money home since I started working. Dad and Aunt Jiang asked us to keep it ourselves. Do I need your money to spend or to eat and drink? Why do you want to mess with me like this?"

Duan Zhuangyu was so depressed by Huo Gaodi's words that he couldn't even raise his head: "Gaodi, I was in a bad mood today, so I spoke without thinking. I won't do that again in the future. Please forgive me, okay?"

Huo Gaodi sighed softly, "Even if Aunt Jiang doesn't argue with you, the words have already been spoken, so it's impossible to pretend that they didn't happen. Tomorrow I'll take you to choose a gift, and when you come to pick up Dad, you can sincerely apologize to Aunt Jiang."

Although Duan Zhuangyu was reluctant, she dared not refute: "Okay."

On the other side, Huo Qianjin and Gao Ruyi, who were going to pick up their son, were also talking about what had just happened: "Zhuang Yu is really something, I don't know what's wrong with him, isn't this just looking for trouble?"

"She did go too far today, but I also blame Gao Di. I'm afraid I didn't explain it clearly to her."

"Having said that, Aunt Jiang has done a good job as a stepmother. If it were someone else, given Zhuang Yu's nitpicking nature, she would have been dealt with long ago."

"Aunt Jiang didn't argue with her. First, she's generous. Second, she doesn't care about Dad's stuff at all. She never thought of putting it into Jingrui and Jiayuan's pockets. Only Duan Zhuangyu was afraid that Aunt Jiang would leave all the stuff to her own children."

"It stands to reason that most of my brother-in-law's family members work in the education system, and they should all be well-educated and well-mannered, but my brother-in-law always gives people a petty feeling."

"It's true that they come from a family of scholars, but they still have to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. To put it bluntly, they are ordinary people like us, so I can understand that." (End of this chapter)
