151 Yang Siru Talks Back

Recently, Yang Siru was already living on the edge of her nerves and had constantly been suppressing her anger. As Old Lady Shen pointed fingers and chided her, her fury welled up in an instant and she exploded with lividness. She retorted, "Mom, what do you mean by that? I'm not the reason Muzhong isn't coming home. It's not like you're not aware of it too. Nowadays, if I call him, he never picks up. Is that my fault?" Before this, Yang Siru would never dare to answer back defiantly. However, this house had been causing her endless frustration.

Witnessing Yang Siru behaving as such, Old Lady Shen's eyeballs were almost popping out of their sockets. She desperately wanted to hit Yang Siru with her walking stick. Throughout all these years, her youngest daughter-in-law had been respectful. When had she ever talked back to her before?

Old Lady Shen had even been feeling good about her status and saw herself as a high and mighty dowager. At that moment, Yang Siru had broken all her marvelous self-perceptions. Livid, she screamed, "What? Are you thinking that since the Shen family has collapsed, you can disregard me, the old grandmother? Great, Yang Siru, you dare to talk back to me. Don't forget that this is the Yun family! Ultimately, I call the shots in the Yun family. Look at the state that you're in. You can't even hold onto your husband, yet you're still trying to show off! If Muzhong doesn't come back, so be it. Didn't you always care only about yourself? When have you ever been concerned about him…?" Propping herself up on her walking stick, Old Lady Shen approached Yun Muzhong, staggering in her steps.

Yang Siru's chest undulated with her indignation. "Mom, it's been so many years, and I've born all the hardships of this house without any complaints. Every time you get angry, you direct your fury towards me. Do you really think that you can be a tyrannical old grandmother? Also, you no longer call the shots in the Yun family…" Nowadays, Yang Siru had seemingly given up and had started acting recklessly. At most, she would neglect her responsibilities and simply brush them off to return to the Yang family.

Old Lady Shen grabbed onto her walking stick and was just about to hit Yang Siru. The latter managed to evade it, causing Old Lady Shen's fury to escalate. In the end, somehow Yang Siru gave Old Lady Shen a shove, and she simply fell flat on the ground.

It was unclear if she had really suffered a bad fall or was merely pretending. She lay on the ground and began causing a ruckus. "Take pity on an old grandmother like me! To be treated like this by my daughter-in-law. I don't want to live anymore. Boohoo… Muzhong, quickly come home and take charge for me…"

In the past, Old Lady Shen would never act like a shrew and put such hysterical shouting on display. But she had also taken too many blows recently and was on the verge of a complete breakdown, so she caused a huge fuss without a care.

Yang Siru was taken aback. Old Lady Shen had always appeared to be a high and mighty dowager. When had she ever shown such a scene?

"Mom, you… you…" Yang Siru stuttered. She wondered if Old Lady Shen had lost her wits or had gone crazy. She hurriedly dialed the emergency number.

As Yun Bixue continuously drove and trailed behind Shen Zhengyao, she saw that he had taken a sum of money to the shopping mall, looking as though he wanted to purchase something.

Yun Muzhong and Xie Shiyi followed him at an appropriate distance. Coincidentally, Yun Bixue spotted her youngest uncle—Yun Muzhong—and a dainty model together in the mall, and her lips curled up into a mischievous smile. She said to Xie Shiyi, "We have a great show to watch up ahead."

Xie Shiyi stood courteously next to Yun Bixue and felt her master's bright spirits. Her gaze also glistened as she stared ahead.

Indeed, after Shen Zhengyao made his purchase and turned to walk towards the doors of the mall, he unexpectedly noticed Yun Muzhong. He was initially still in disbelief, but after scrutinizing for some time, he confirmed that the man who was currently flirting with a young lady was indeed Yun Muzhong.
