Ji Youran felt helpless. Listening to Wang Dongxue and Zhu Xiuxiu, he finally said, "I was wrong!"
Old Lady Ji finally let out a sigh of relief. Looking at Huo Xing'Er, she asked, "Second Daughter-in-law, now that Second Son admits his mistake, have you calmed down?"
Ji Youran was stunned by her words, and his expression turned exceedingly grim. So, in all the years he had been away from home, this woman had been badmouthing him to Mother!
Huo Xing'Er blinked. She suddenly had a lot on her mind. Her mother-in-law was a good one; she even remembered to seek justice for her. However, to her, apologies, even ten or eight times over, were meaningless.
"As long as you've calmed down, Mother, that's all that matters. Then let's begin!" Huo Xing'Er declared. She punctuated her words with a swing of the knife, this declaration aimed at Zhu Xiuxiu and, by implication, herself.
Seeing her movement, Old Lady Ji's vision darkened. This meant she hadn't forgiven her disobedient son yet!
