Traveling through ancient times, I led my family to prosperity

At this time, Daya stood at the edge of the kang, crying and wiping her tears. Xiaocao looked at Cui and then at Daya with a frightened face.

"...You're just a money-loser, you little bitch..." These unbearable words continued to flow out of Cui's mouth...

Daya cried very aggrievedly, and Xu's face turned red. It was even more painful for her daughter to be insulted like this than if Cui scolded her directly.

Xu suppressed her anger and put on a smile, "Grandma, what happened? How did Daya offend you? Tell me, and I will beat her." Then Xu looked at Xiaocao beside her, "Xiaocao, as an aunt, why don't you try to persuade her? What if she makes our grandma angry again..."

Xiaocao was an honest child who was not good at speaking. When Xu suddenly pointed the finger at her, she was at a loss. She stammered for a long time but could not say anything.

When Cui saw Xu saying this about Xiaocao, she stopped scolding Daya and said, "It's none of Xiaocao's business. She didn't make me angry." Although Cui stopped scolding Daya, her expression was still not looking good.

Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Grandma, weren't you all very happy just now? Grandma, Daya is ignorant, you are a big shot... If Daya does something wrong, you should teach her a lesson, don't... don't scold her all the time. Little girl, you are shy... If you are not satisfied, you can beat her up, but don't scold her all the time..."

"In our entire family, including your third uncle, everyone has been scolded by me since childhood. Only a girl like you is so precious? I can't scold you anymore?" Although Xu's words were tactful, Cui finally heard the hidden meaning in her words. Xu was blaming her for scolding Da Ya.

"Grandma, that's not what I meant. I'm so happy that you're disciplining Daya," Mrs. Xu said with a smile. "We're young and haven't experienced much. How can we understand anything? You've been through a lot. You know more about rules and etiquette than we do. Grandma, I'm so happy that you're willing to discipline Daya. This is a blessing for Daya."

Seeing that Xu smiled and spoke softly, Cui's anger dissipated a little, but she still snorted, "You think I scolded her for no reason? If there was nothing wrong, why would I scold her? This child is not very old, but she speaks harshly. Who did she learn this from? If I don't care, she will rebel in the future. I am so old, and I still have to be scolded by a young child. This is simply too lawless."

Xu turned around, wiped Daya's tears with a handkerchief, then winked at Daya quietly before asking, "Child, tell me what made your grandmother angry?"

Daya looked at Xu, then at Cui, and then lowered her head. "I... I didn't say anything..." Daya said in a low voice.

"I haven't said anything yet, but you're glaring at me even though I haven't said anything. If I had said anything, you would have kicked me out!" Cui said angrily.

Cui was so old and of such a high generation, it would be disgraceful for her to argue with a younger person. However, Cui did not think so. She believed that it was her right to teach her great-granddaughter a lesson for talking back to her.

Daya was Xu's offspring, so she naturally understood her daughter's temperament. When she saw Daya's attitude, she knew there must be some hidden secrets. Cui's words just now also revealed some dissatisfaction with her as a mother. She probably suspected that she had taught Daya something behind her back.

Xu was a smart woman. She wanted to stay in this family, but she couldn't let Cui think of her like this. "Daya, hurry up and apologize to Grandma." Xu turned her back to Cui and winked at Daya, asking her to apologize to Cui.

Daya was so upset that she burst into tears, but Xu still squeezed her arm and pushed Daya to Cui. "Grandma, I was wrong just now, grandma, please don't be angry with me, I won't dare to do it again next time." Daya was a sensible child since she was young, and Xu taught her how to get along with Cui behind her back. Therefore, even though Daya felt particularly wronged, she still bowed her head and apologized to Cui.

Adults are very tolerant of children, and Cui is no exception. After hearing Daya's apology, Cui's expression softened a little, "Don't always think that what you say can be let go! Look at the third daughter-in-law, although she is very happy now, she has to bend down when she sees me! In the past, whatever I said was what I did, did she dare to say no? Don't you see how much weight you have... Have a comparison reference first..." Cui said to herself.

These words were spoken to Xu, who was standing nearby, not daring to breathe. She knew that Cui was now warning her.

Cui felt that she had beaten him enough and had vented her anger, so she said to Daya, "Go wash your face. You've cried so hard that it's all gray, as if you've suffered a great injustice..."

Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Grandma, I'll take Daya out to wash her face." Then she took Daya out.

Cui sat on the kang, looking at the back of the mother and daughter's heads, her face a little gloomy. Deep down, Cui didn't like Daya.

After Daya washed her face, Xu took her back to her room. She closed the door tightly and asked Daya in a low voice, "Daya, what's going on?"

Now that only Xu and she were there, Daya was no longer cautious about what she said. She leaned close to Xu's ear and whispered something. It turned out that Cui had said something bad about Xu in front of Daya and Xiaocao. As Xu's daughter, Daya was still young, so she couldn't stand Cui talking about her mother like that. Therefore, she couldn't help but refute Cui's words.

It was not new for Cui to speak ill of Xu behind her back. Xu knew in her heart that even if she was careful, she could not completely satisfy Cui. Now that she was in this family, it was a rare thing for Cui to give her some respect. Cui was a shrewd old lady, but she actually did something like belittling Xu in front of Xu's daughter, which was simply unbelievable. If Daya and Xu had a bad relationship, Cui's behavior would be understandable, but Xu and Daya had a good relationship, but Cui actually spoke ill of Xu in front of Daya, which really could not be inferred by common sense.
