Chapter 1157: Chapter 1157: Confrontation!
A happy event?
Mu Yan looked at Liu Xiangqing in confusion, "Have you and my brother set the date for your wedding?"
"Not us, it’s Yu Tai," Liu Xiangqing replied.
Jiang Yutai? Mu Yan was even more puzzled. Wasn’t he deeply in love with Zhuang Chujiao? During New Year, he nearly refused to leave the Zhuang Family’s house.
Could it be...she suddenly had a bad premonition.
Just then, a voice came from the staircase, "Jiaojiao, you’re here, is it cold outside?"
Mu Yan looked up and saw Qiu Shuyun coming down from the second floor. She followed her gaze towards the door.
Zhuang Chujiao walked in arm-in-arm with Jiang Yutai, looking full of sweetness.
"Not cold, but Auntie, you should wear more," she said.
"Alright, quickly, sit in the living room. Dinner is almost ready," Qiu Shuyun said with a smile.
"Okay," Zhuang Chujiao replied with a smile, her gaze falling on the living room. She saw Mu Yan and smiled slightly, "Nuannuan, long time no see."
Mu Yan met her gaze and openly inspected her.
This woman’s skills have matured; after what happened last time, she could still look so calm seeing her.
However, she didn’t want to go through the motions with her.
Seeing Mu Yan ignoring Zhuang Chujiao, Zhuang Chujiao wore a wronged expression, and Jiang Yutai’s face turned unpleasant as he said to Mu Yan discontentedly, "Sister-in-law, even if you don’t regard Jiaojiao as your sister, she is now your second sister-in-law. Is this how you treat your sisters-in-law? You don’t even greet your sister-in-law, it seems you don’t respect me at all."
"Alright, Brother Yutai, don’t trouble Nuannuan. I know she dislikes me," Zhuang Chujiao advised.
"No way, this is the Jiang Family, not the Zhuang Family. Anyone who wants to bully you has to go through me first," Jiang Yutai turned his head with a cold look at Mu Yan.
"Not just you, I’m afraid some people don’t even respect me as their second aunt," Qiu Shuyun chimed in.
Mu Yan looked at the three of them united in opposition and suddenly laughed, "How would Jingheng and I dare not respect our second aunt and cousin? However, cousin got engaged without informing Jingheng and me, clearly showing that second aunt, you didn’t regard us as family either."
"Who said Yu Tai got married, don’t make baseless accusations," Qiu Shuyun retorted unhappily.
Mu Yan looked at her with surprise, "Not married?"
"Of course, your cousin getting married is a big event, how could it be done sneakily, like something shameful," Qiu Shuyun said with a hint of sarcasm.
This was a jab at Mu Yan and Jiang Jingheng for getting married without informing their family.
Mu Yan didn’t get angry, she smiled, "Since cousin isn’t married, where would I have a second sister-in-law, second aunt, are you teasing me?"
Qiu Shuyun was stifled, "You..."
Liu Xiangqing added, "Right, second aunt, as for Yu Tai, this status matter shouldn’t be taken lightly. In case they suddenly change their minds, it would be a joke."
She looked at Zhuang Chujiao and said, "If Miss Zhuang is willing to call me sister-in-law, I can handle it, but since the status isn’t confirmed yet, we won’t force it."
Zhuang Chujiao saw clearly that Liu Xiangqing was defending Mu Yan. Though she was infuriated, this was the Jiang Family’s house, not allowing her to act out.
She could only say, "Sister-in-law is right."
Qiu Shuyun’s expression turned grim, and she snorted coldly, "Jiaojiao hasn’t even entered the door, and she’s already being bullied by you two. What happens after she does?"
"If second aunt says so, just tell your future daughter-in-law to ignore us, otherwise we can’t bear the bad name," Liu Xiangqing didn’t back down.
Although she and Jiang Wenhao didn’t hold a wedding, they already had a marriage certificate and were rightly the eldest daughter-in-law of the main family.
Incensed, Qiu Shuyun directly went to the kitchen.
Jiang Yutai accompanied Zhuang Chujiao in sitting in the living room, that posture as if afraid Mu Yan and Liu Xiangqing would bully her.
Zhuang Chujiao and Jiang Yutai were sweetly displaying their happiness, and she suddenly asked Mu Yan, "Nuannuan, how have you been lately? Grandpa and Grandma miss you very much, they reminded me to tell you to call home more often."
