She won't clear her name; she'll throw away all the scum.

Grandma Xia came with her sister. It was the same state-run restaurant, and they were in the same seats.

Mr. and Mrs. Yu's attitude was much better than at noon. Part of this was because of the lingering trauma from their last meeting, and another part was that Mrs. Xia's status was completely different now than before.

Yu's mother even felt that Old Mrs. Xia's entire demeanor was completely different from the last time.

"Comrade Xia, it's been a long time."

Grandma Xia stood up, politely shook hands with them, and calmly said, "It's been a long time."

After Yu's parents sat down, the children also sat down.

Grandma Xia remained silent, waiting for Yu's parents to speak. The scene fell silent. Yu's parents were already dissatisfied with Chen Xianghong and were unwilling to speak, feeling that the person who spoke first was practically begging to marry into their family.

Although she held Old Lady Xia in high regard and dared not speak recklessly, the sense of superiority that had always existed in her heart had not disappeared.

Old Mrs. Xia also sensed this from their eyes and became even more unwilling to speak.

Yu's parents are the type to take advantage of others' kindness. If Old Mrs. Xia speaks first, they will probably look down on Xiang Hong even more.

Let's see who loses their temper first.

Seeing that his parents were at odds with Old Man Xia, Yu Hongzhen didn't want the atmosphere to stay like this, so he broke the deadlock by saying, "Aunt Xia, my parents came here today for my marriage with Xiang Hong, and we need your advice on many things."

Grandma Xia nodded calmly, "I wonder if you two have any opinions?"

Although Yu's mother had long known that her son was no longer close to her, she still felt uncomfortable seeing his behavior and said sarcastically, "The two of them are right, how dare we have any objections?"

One technique that Grandma Xia recently learned is that if the other party says something ironic or sarcastic, and that sarcastic remark happens to align with her own purpose, then she should disregard the other party's emotions and not give them a chance to back out; she should make a decision immediately.

"That's good. Since you two have no objections, I'll just say a few words. Xiao Yu arranged the wedding process very well, so I have no objections. However, I need to confirm that you two won't be living with the young couple afterward, right?"

Grandma Xia already knew about the news from noon. Chen Xiangbei's mouth was like the factory's loudspeaker; he would run over and pass on any news to her long ago. So, she had to resolve this matter at the dinner table tonight.

As expected, Yu's mother became even more unhappy. "Comrade Xia, what do you mean by this? How can a son not allow his parents to visit after getting married? When your eldest and second sons got married, didn't you live with them?"

Grandma Xia: "That's true, but when I lived with them, I did all the housework, gave them money to spend, took care of the children and served the whole family. Everything I did was to make life easier for the children."

Yu's mother: "That's you, not everyone. Does Comrade Xia think that just because you've become the women's director, you can represent all the women? As far as I know, most families are not the same as before. Do you think that after raising my son all these years, I can't even enjoy the blessings of a daughter-in-law?"

In other people's families, the parents can enjoy their retirement after their sons get married, and the daughter-in-law can take on the filial duties in place of the son. How come when my son married your daughter, you look down on us even more? No matter where you go, you're in the wrong, aren't you?"

Grandma Xia pretended to be puzzled, "I remember that Xiang Hong's dowry was given by Xiao Yu's own salary and allowance. It seems that you didn't contribute anything. My Xiang Hong did bring her own dowry. She also has a job. She won't rely on your son to support her in the future."

She has never spent a penny of your money since she was a child, so how can you have the nerve to ask her to be filial to you? If you had said that the money you paid for Xiao Yu's betrothal gifts, got my Xiang Hong a stable job, or saved her life, then it would be only right that she and Xiao Yu be filial to you.

"You two haven't done anything, and you won't ease their burden in the future. You won't help them with chores or take care of the children. You want to enjoy Xiang Hong's good fortune without doing anything? How can you be so shameless? Are all people in big cities this shameless?"

Yu's mother slammed her hand on the table and said angrily, "I raised my son, shouldn't he be filial to me? If I get sick, can't my son even take care of me? What shamelessness? Let me tell you, in two years when Lao Yu and I retire, I will definitely move in with them. Let's see if your Xiang Hong dares to kick her in-laws out."

Grandma Xia: "Alright, then stay. You raised your son, so it's only right that he takes care of you. I raised Xiang Hong, so it's only right that she takes care of me. Xiang Hong, will you take care of your mother in the future?"

Chen Xianghong nodded emphatically, "Mom, I will definitely take care of you. If I don't, may I be struck by lightning."

Grandma Xia: "Xiao Yu, if Xiang Hong takes care of me, won't you be unhappy?"

Yu Hongzhen shook his head: "I'm married to Xiang Hong, so you're like my own mother. How could I not be happy?"

Grandma Xia smiled and said, "That's wonderful, Xiao Yu. When your parents come to live with you, I'll move in too. You have to be filial to your parents, and Xiang Hong has to be filial to me. Then, our whole family will be happy together, won't that be great?"

Yu's mother cursed, "What kind of mother-in-law lives in her son-in-law's house? Who's the shameless one here?"

Grandma Xia: "My health isn't very good either. What's wrong with letting my daughter take care of me? You only allow your son to support you. Now that my daughter has married your son, she's going to cut ties with her family?"

Chen Xiangbei's eyes lit up. He knew, of course, that his mother was in no condition to be supported by his sister. She didn't even want her sons to support her. So she was definitely trying to provoke Yu's parents. He added, "Mom, I'll support you too. If you move to my sister and brother-in-law's house, I'll move there too. My brother-in-law will definitely agree, right?"

Yu Hongzhen: "Come on, everyone come on. I'll see if I can get a bigger house outside, and our whole family can move in. It will be lively and bustling at home, which is what my parents like the most."

Chen Xiangbei: "When your brother-in-law is born, I can take him to play. I know all too well what kids like to do, like taking him to climb walls, going out to pretend to be a beggar, or... blowing up a latrine?"

Yu's mother screamed, "Are you crazy, Yu Hongzhen? Don't forget your surname is Yu. You're not their son-in-law who married into the family. What right do you have to support their whole family?"

She wanted to live with her son so that the baby in her womb could be raised better, not so that he would be led astray to blow up cesspools.

What kind of words are those? They're unbearable to hear, utterly vulgar.
