Chapter 724: Chapter 0724: Breaking Face 1_1

In the end, Grandma Xiu, fearing that delay might lead to problems, went to see Liu Hongxiu that very day.

Bai Xue had just come off work and was listening to passerby discussing the fight between Xibao and Su Ping. Hearing that Su Ping had been scratched by Xibao, Bai Xue felt secretly delighted, she was overjoyed and felt immensely pleased from inside out.

Next month when she receives her salary and bonus, she must buy something tasty to reward Xibao.

Though she’s a daughter-in-law of the Su family, she particularly loathes Su Junlin’s parents, brothers and sisters, and a bunch of children, not a single decent one among them!

Serve them right!

Being a stepmother is tough. If it weren’t for fear of gossip, Bai Xue would have already given Su Ping and Su An a good beating long time ago. These two children are not likeable at all, constantly rummaging through her things in her room. Once they even turned out her underwear and sanitary napkins which almost embarrassed her to death, afterwards she kept everything other than bedding in her department.

Bai Xue’s steps were even lighter than usual.

This lightness didn’t last long, just as she arrived at the doorstep, she ran into Liu Hongxiu seeing Grandma Xiu out, the former’s face wasn’t looking good, attempting to force a smile while the latter politely said, "Take care, take care."

After watching Grandma Xiu walk away, Liu Hongxiu turned around and started to vent her anger at Bai Xue.

"You are their mother, can’t you educate Su Ping and Su An properly? Now, the whole family has become a laughing stock in this compound!" Though it wasn’t the main reason for the Xiu family reneging, Liu Hongxiu felt hugely embarrassed.

Bai Xue pretended not to know about the news she had just heard, and asked in confusion," What are you talking about? I have to leave for work at the literary troop early in the morning, and only come back late at night. Just travelling to and fro on the bus takes up so much time, and then I have to walk quite a way after getting off the bus. I have no idea what’s been happening at home. Also, when did I become a mother? Whether it’s Su Ping or Su An, they are Su Junlin’s sons, and have nothing to do with me. All of them saw that I was never pregnant, right?"

Liu Hongxiu angrily retorted, "Su Ping and Su An aren’t your sons? What on earth are you talking about!"

"My sons? When did I carry them for ten months? When have they ever called me ’mother’?" Bai Xue scoffed," You all know very well how they address me! Don’t vent your frustrations on innocent people when you have problems!"

After saying that, the self-proclaimed innocent Bai Xue simply flounced off.

Mother Su came out of the house, furrowed her brows in anger and said, "Bai Xue, what did you just say? Can you repeat that?"

Bai Xue didn’t back down, but stood her ground, gripping her military water bottle firmly, "So what if I repeat it? I said I don’t have two sons named Su Ping and Su An. What, are you going to hit me? Go for it. If you dare lay a finger on me, I’ll repay it by bashing my head against the door of our old leader’s house, letting him see how his pitiful daughter-in-law is being tormented by you! We’re not living in feudal times anymore, don’t act high and mighty in front of me!"

"You...you..." Mother Su was so angry that her body was trembling, "Is this the way you speak to your mother-in-law?"

"Want to act like a mother-in-law ? Go back to your feudal era!" As soon as Bai Xue finished speaking, she saw Su An charging at her, brandishing a stool like a fierce ghost. She turned and sprinted away, yelling as she ran, "Help! Someone help me! Help!"
