Chapter 956 I'd rather let others sulk

Chapter 956 I'd rather let others sulk

Just when I thought Lu Qiaoling was done talking, she said coldly, "After dinner today, you'll have to do all the dishes and clean the kitchen. Don't make excuses again, like a stomachache or a leg cramp, or any other ridiculous reasons."

"Second sister-in-law, let me tell you this..." Lu Qiaoling lowered her voice, "If you don't do as I say, I'll drag you out right now and repeat everything you just said in front of the whole family, in front of your son and daughter. Oh, and I remember all the things you said about my family behind their backs. Do you want us to confront each other today and settle the score one by one?"

Hearing this, Sister-in-law Song felt a mix of emotions, but mostly she felt an indescribable admiration.

She thought to herself, "These two sisters are cut from the same cloth; their mouths are so sharp."

She could actually say it herself, but most of the time she was too embarrassed to say anything definitive and make the other person feel awkward.

But at this moment, she suddenly realized that speaking like this felt so comfortable, so refreshing, so exhilarating.

Lu Qiaoling felt relieved, but Song Ersao was furious.

She truly hadn't expected that Lu Qiaoling, who always seemed so gentle, would be like this.

She was so angry that she was trembling all over, as if she was about to explode.

But looking at Lu Qiaoling, who was not giving an inch, the first thing that welled up in her heart was fear.

Yes, Sister-in-law Song was a little scared.

That's just how she is. She puts on a show all the time, but when it comes to getting serious, she's nothing. If no one argues with her, she thinks she's something special; but once someone does, she's finished.

But she still seized on one sentence in Lu Qiaoling's words and hurriedly retorted, "Lu Qiaoling, you're making baseless accusations! When did I say anything bad about your family?"

Lu Qiaoling stared at her coldly: "Do you want me to give you the specific date, time and place? For example, the movie theater entrance three days ago... Second sister-in-law, I'm giving you face, but if you really don't want it, then I won't give it to you."

Song Ersao's mind went blank for a moment. She quickly tried to recall what she had said at the movie theater entrance three days ago. Right, when others were talking about the Lu family, she had joined in the fun and added a few words of embellishment.

Who was present at the time?

None of those people are good; they'd sell themselves out the moment they turn their backs.

Song Ersao's face flushed red, and she opened her mouth, but then closed it weakly again.

Because she did say it. Although she didn't think it was a big deal, she was in the wrong.

If this were to be investigated, she would definitely not get away with it.

Sister-in-law Song watched from the sidelines, and the usually difficult and annoying sister-in-law was rendered speechless by this little girl, Lu Qiaoling.

She suddenly understood what Lu Qiaoge had told her back then: "Some people don't need to be given face. If you give them face, you'll only cause trouble for yourself. Sometimes, it's better to let others be angry than to be angry yourself."

Now, Sister-in-law Song has completely figured things out.

She was in charge of the labor union and the women's federation. The factory had a good atmosphere, and everyone cooperated, so it wasn't actually that difficult. But occasionally, she would encounter people like this, and she would often feel resentful.

She coughed at the opportune moment, put down the kitchen knife, looked at Song Ersao, and said in an unprecedentedly stern tone: "Second sister-in-law, as the second sister-in-law, you shouldn't have said those things just now. I don't understand you either. We're family, right? You talk about Qiao Ge and the Lu family behind their backs. Do you think others will like you or praise you because of that?"

Do you know what they'll say about you behind your back? They'll definitely say nothing nice! You're a traitor!

I've seen you being lazy, gluttonous, and cunning every time.

My silence doesn't mean I'm stupid. I just didn't want to argue with you, but now I realize I was wrong.

Honestly, I've been wrong about how I treat you all these years. Today I finally understand that I can't spoil you like before, otherwise you might do something else entirely.

Song Ersao was furious, but she didn't dare to retaliate. Lu Qiaoling stared at her and asked directly, "Ersao, are you planning to break off all ties with me and become my enemy from now on?"

That's a very impolite question.

But Sister-in-law Song discovered that this blunt approach was incredibly effective.

The second son's family really didn't dare to break off relations or become enemies with Lu Qiaoling.

Because doing so would do her no good at all. She might vent her frustration verbally, but she wouldn't dare to actually do anything truly bad.

You can tell just by looking at her current state of anger without daring to speak out.

At this point, Sister-in-law Song, seeing that things were going well, smoothed things over: "Alright, alright, no matter what, we're all family. I'm not forcing you to apologize to Qiao Ling, but to be honest, you really should say sorry to her."

How can you talk nonsense like this, not on behalf of your own people but on the side of outsiders?

"Alright, go get me a few eggs from that basket. I want scrambled eggs. Qiao Ling, let's eat right away. Tell them to set the table and eat quickly."

Lu Qiaoling smiled slightly, her tone returning to calm: "Okay, sister-in-law, I'll go right away."

As she walked past Sister-in-law Song, she suddenly stopped, lowered her voice, and added, "Sister-in-law, I'm serious. You have to do the dishes and clean the kitchen today."

Song Ersao was about to retort with her neck stiffened, but when she met Lu Qiaoling's cold eyes, she had to swallow back the words she wanted to say.

There was hatred in my heart, a hatred that made my teeth itch.

That damned Lu Qiaoling, she has such a sharp tongue, she can't win an argument with her.

To avoid humiliating herself, she could only keep quiet in frustration.

But in his heart he was thinking viciously: Lu Qiaoling, you just wait!

But when it comes to Lu Qiaoling, you can say she's okay, but you absolutely can't say anything about her second sister or her family.

Although a tall tree catches the wind, Song Ersao is family. This kind of gossipy woman is most likely to cause trouble. If she can't control her mouth, she will cause big trouble sooner or later.

In the past year or so, hasn't she heard enough of what she's been told?

For example, this woman once said behind someone's back: "So what if a girl is capable? She still marries into our Song family, and her children bear the Song surname. How much better can Lu Qiaoge be? Girls shouldn't be too strong-willed; being competitive isn't a good thing..."

Today I finally found an opportunity to set rules for her all at once, and she wasn't afraid of offending her.

If we don't teach her a lesson, she'll only become more arrogant in the future.

As for how they will get along in the future, Lu Qiaoling doesn't care.

To be honest, everyone lives their own life. If we get along well, we'll stay in touch; if not, we'll never see each other again.

Lu Qiaoling snorted coldly and turned to walk into the house.

Watching her retreating figure, Sister-in-law Song gritted her teeth, but ultimately dared not openly confront her. She could only suppress her anger and guilt, and slunk away to get the eggs…
