Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 633: 178: Regret it now! _5

Lady Shangguan felt deep sympathy for her honest and obedient son-in-law.

She intended to aid Zhao Shen, but she had no control over her daughter at all.

Lady Shangguan watched Shangguan Furong’s retreating figure, shaking her head helplessly.

Shangguan Furong returned to the Zhao house, fuming with rage.

“Furong, you’re back.” Zhao Shen immediately rose from the sofa.

“Hmm, pour me a cup of tea.”

“Oh, alright.” Zhao Shen immediately poured Shangguan Furong a cup of tea.

After taking one sip, Shangguan Furong immediately spat the tea back out. “Zhao Shen! Are you deliberately trying to irritate me? Didn’t I tell you already, I don’t like Pu’er Tea! I want Biluochun Tea! Biluochun Tea! What part of that do you not understand?”

Shangguan Furong was already seething with anger, and Zhao Shen, the perennial scapegoat, was an easy target.

Zhao Shen immediately trembled with fear, and quickly fetched a tissue to wipe Shangguan Furong’s mouth, “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I was going to drink this Pu’er Tea myself! I poured the wrong pot! I’ll pour you another one!”

“Zhao Shen!” exclaimed Shangguan Furong. She slammed her teacup onto the tea table, “How many times have I told you! You are not allowed to drink Pu’er Tea either! There shouldn’t be any Pu’er Tea in this house! Who allowed you to buy it? Who gave you the permission?! Are you trying to rebel?”

“Furong, I’m sorry, I won’t dare to do it again next time!” Zhao Shen, the strange man, preferred black and red teas like Pu’er, but Shangguan Furong only liked green tea, and only drank green tea…

And so, the conflict escalated.

Shangguan Furong, too furious to speak, picked up the teapot and smashed it to the ground, pointing at the shards, “Kneel down! Zhao Shen, I’ve finally realized. Unless I make you suffer a bit, you will never remember my rules!”

Zhao Shen’s mother emerged from the inner room, looking at her dominating and overbearing daughter-in-law, too stunned to speak.

Zhao Shen was a pushover, and he knelt down when Shangguan Furong ordered him to do so.

Those were sharp shards!

How could anyone kneel on them without getting hurt?

Zhao Shen’s mother frowned out of concern.

But there was nothing she could do about it, who could be blamed when her son was so spineless?

Just then, the butler came to inform, “Madam, Miss Jia is here.”

Shangguan Furong turned to Zhao Shen, “Go kneel in the room!”

“All right, Furong, don’t be angry. You know what the books say, anger can make you age faster.” Zhao Shen quickly made his way toward the bedroom.

Soon after, Jia Zhenzhen entered from outside, “Furong!”

“Zhenzhen.” Shangguan Furong greeted, smiling.

“Furong, what happened to you at the mall? Why did you just leave suddenly?” Jia Zhenzhen asked, concerned.

Shangguan Furong replied, “It’s nothing.” Of course, she couldn’t say that she had missed out on the Supreme Edition of the Ice Skin Jade Cream.

All thanks to the old Lady Shangguan!

And Daya!

Surely she did it on purpose! If she had just said earlier that this was the Supreme Edition of Ice Skin Jade Cream, there wouldn’t have been this misunderstanding, right?

Rural people will always remain rural people, and could never step into the spotlight.

Even though she had taken her anger out on Zhao Shen just now, Shangguan Furong was still livid.

Jia Zhenzhen glanced at the shattered pieces on the floor and whispered, “Did you have another fight with Ziqing’s dad?”

Ziqing was Shangguan Furong’s eldest daughter, nine years old.

Shangguan Furong grumbled, “He’s as useless as trash! He’s not even comparable to Mo Qishen!”

Jia Zhenzhen tugged at Shangguan Furong’s sleeve, signaling for her to lower her voice.

Shangguan Furong retorted, “What’s there to be afraid of?! I didn’t say anything wrong!” Ultimately, the head of the Shangguan household was her. Who would dare to do anything to her? Be they young or old, everyone had to live by her rules.

Jia Zhenzhen pulled Shangguan Furong to the sofa and whispered, “Furong, you should really keep your temper in check. Despite everything, Ziqing’s dad is a man, and he has his own dignity. If you keep this up, aren’t you afraid that he might retaliate one day?”

Jia Zhenzhen had known Shangguan Furong for many years now, and she was very familiar with her temper.

Too hot-tempered and too domineering!

“Furong, some truthful words are unpleasant to hear.”

At her words, Shangguan Furong’s expression changed, she nodded slowly, “Mm, I get it.”

Jia Zhenzhen knew it wasn’t a good time to stay around, so she said, “Knowing you’re okay puts my mind at ease. I’ll get going then.”

“Mm.” Shangguan Furong nodded.

School.

Ni Yang had an exam in Chinese yesterday afternoon. Today, she was scheduled for Math and English exams.

She arrived at the campus right when the classes had just been dismissed.

Ni Yang was dressed in a blue and white school uniform, holding a few books. As she strolled down the path shaded by camphor trees, she attracted the attention of quite a few students who stopped to watch.
