Reborn in the 90s, tearing apart scumbag men for the sake of women.

Jiang Yunlan worked as a maid at the Li family's house for a week, doing all the cooking and cleaning by herself.

The elders of the Li family completely ignored her and let Li Meimei torment her.

Her good son, Fang Guanghua, just kept advising her to bear with it.

Jiang Yunlan knew what Fang Guanghua was plotting, and she didn't want to disrupt her son's plans, but the Li family was really bullying her too much.

What kind of mother-in-law goes to her in-laws' house to be treated like a slave?

After the New Year, Jian Yunlan finally seized an opportunity and quietly left the Li family while they were visiting relatives.

Back in Fang Guanghua's bridal chamber, Jiang Yunlan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He was determined to show off his mother-in-law status to Zhou Songmei after suffering humiliation at the Li family's house.

However, upon opening the door, a foul stench assaulted the senses.

There were leftovers on the dining table, some from who-knows-when, and they were all moldy.

The house was a mess. If Jiang Yunlan didn't know Zhou Songmei and the others' usual habits, she would have suspected that her house had been burgled.

Jiang Yunlan couldn't stand it anymore. She tidied up while cursing and swearing, determined to tell Fang Guanghua when he returned.

If they can't handle Li Meimei, surely they can handle Zhou Songmei?

This house looks like it hasn't been lived in for many days. I wonder where Zhou Songmei has gone off to fool around. She's taking the child with her and still messing around. It's outrageous!

Before the room was even tidied up, Zhou Songmei returned looking exhausted, carrying Zizai on her back.

Upon seeing her, Jiang Yunlan was furious and immediately launched into a tirade: "Zhou Songmei, where have you been? Do you know that you are now my son's woman, a mother yourself, and you're still out fooling around all day long? Aren't you afraid of corrupting the child?"

Zhou Songmei didn't go to the Song family to live a good life; instead, she worked as a free maid for several days.

Adding to the woes, Zizai suddenly developed a high fever, and Zhou Songmei was constantly on the go, taking care of the child at the hospital and also going to the Song family to continue winning over Song Jianping.

In short, her life wasn't easy either.

Zhou Songmei put Zizai on the bed in the bedroom. Zizai was still sick and in a bad mood.

Jiang Yunlan's nagging went on and on, and she even tried to follow her into the bedroom. Zhou Songmei impatiently pushed her out the door.

"Can't you tell Zizai is sick? Can't you keep your voice down a little so the child can get some sleep?"

Jiang Yunlan glanced at the room and lowered her voice slightly: "Zhou Songmei, do you know who you're yelling at? Don't think that Zizai's illness is your lifeline. The food on that table was prepared before I left before the New Year. How busy must you be to eat it and not clean it up? Don't tell me that Zizai was sick before the New Year."

One sentence left Zhou Songmei speechless.

Jiang Yunlan glared at her fiercely, becoming even more relentless: "I really don't know how you take care of a child. When she was with me, she wasn't this delicate. She was always lively and energetic. You've only been taking care of her for a few days, and she's already this sick. Besides being able to cuddle with men in bed, what else can you do that's worthwhile?"

“The house you live in belongs to my son, and the money you spend belongs to my son. When we’re not home, you don’t even know how to clean up your own dishes; they’re going to rot there. What else can you do besides spend my son’s money to dress yourself up nicely?”

Jiang Yunlan got more and more excited as she talked, and in her excitement, she couldn't help but poke Zhou Songmei's forehead.

It's strange that Zhou Songmei, who isn't usually very tolerant, was completely speechless after being scolded by Jiang Yunlan today.

Arguments tend to fizzle out easily when there's only one person involved, and the argument can easily fall apart.

Jiang Yunlan's original intention was to vent all the anger she had suffered at the Li family's hands, but Zhou Songmei didn't take the bait, which put her in a bit of a predicament.

Performing a solo act really affects one's performance.

However, as she continued to berate Zhou Songmei, she realized that Zhou Songmei was behaving very strangely.

Zhou Songmei used to tolerate her, but when Fang Guanghua wasn't home, she would inevitably argue with her a few times.

However, today, Zhou Songmei was like a mute, not saying a single word.

He was swaying unsteadily, his face was pale, and he looked very weak.

Jiang Yunlan nudged Zhou Songmei: "Your man isn't here, so who are you trying to fool by acting so weak?"

Unexpectedly, this push sent Zhou Songmei sprawling to the ground.

Jiang Yunlan didn't react for a moment, and nudged Zhou Songmei with her toe: "Zhou Songmei, what are you doing? Trying to extort me? Get up, stop pretending!"

Zhou Songmei still didn't react, so Jiang Yunlan, not believing it, stomped on her again.

Now it was her turn to panic. She was just trying to vent her anger. Zhou Songmei didn't seem like a weak person. How could she be so easily upset before she even started to struggle?

Jiang Yunlan panicked when she couldn't wake Zhou Songmei after calling her for a long time, so she called Fang Guanghua.

Fang Guanghua arrived quickly. With a sick child, the child's mother, and an incompetent stepmother, the family would fall apart without him.

As expected of the head of the family, Fang Guanghua made arrangements in an orderly manner after his return.

He asked Jiang Yunlan to stay home and take care of the children, while he took Zhou Songmei to the hospital.

As for Fang Guanghua, he was also fed up with staying at the Li family's house.

The purchase of the cement plant has not been finalized. Li Meimei said she would talk to her father about it, but nothing has come of it.

It's one thing for him to be a grandson in the Li family, but now, in order to vent Li Meimei's anger, he's dragging Jiang Yunlan into it too.

Fang Guanghua wasn't unaware of Jiang Yunlan's ways of putting Li Meimei at a disadvantage. However, after so many years of being a daughter-in-law, Jiang Yunlan had certainly done her part, raising him all these years without much effort. In Fang Guanghua's view, letting her act like a mother-in-law was perfectly acceptable.

Besides, the fact that the mother-in-law can put on airs indirectly shows how capable her son is.

As a result, the mother and son worked as nannies and gigolos for others, and after so many days, they hadn't seen any benefits.

Fang Guanghua had been itching to act for a long time.

He was getting impatient with Li's relatives when he received Jiang Yunlan's call, which felt like a lifeline.

However, he didn't expect that his own backyard would also catch fire.

Zizai lay weakly on the bed, Zhou Songmei fainted on the sofa, and the house was in complete chaos.

Looking at everything before him, Fang Guanghua had no time to investigate where things had gone wrong. He could only solve each problem step by step, like a robot wound up in a clockwork mechanism.

Whenever he felt overwhelmed by difficulties, he would think of that woman.

During the Spring Festival, he secretly went to another street and found that her shop was packed with customers, a stark contrast to the desolation of his own shop.

I also saw her and Qiao Nansheng holding hands, chatting and laughing.

If he hadn't had so many other thoughts last year and had focused solely on pursuing her, would he have been the one holding her hand and laughing with her back then?

"Hiss—" Fang Guanghua's hand felt like it had been pricked by an ice cube, and he couldn't help but cry out.

"Guanghua—" It turned out that Zhou Songmei had woken up.

Getting an IV drip in the dead of winter is truly agonizing. Just now, Zhou Songmei woke up and touched Fang Guanghua with her icy hands.
