Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Not One She Took a Fancy To

"Who has she ever said a good word about? She can find fault with any family, but today, she really shouldn’t have pushed those people. Bone setting always hurts, and she’s old enough to know that—I think she did it on purpose."

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Wu Family who stayed behind felt particularly awkward. If it weren’t for their younger generation working hard to maintain relations with the other families, they would have been isolated long ago, given how close her mother-in-law was to offending everyone in the area.

She offered an apologetic smile to everyone before turning to head home, feeling utterly frustrated inside.

No matter how hard they tried, it was no match for their grandmother’s destructive power. All she wanted now was to divide the family and move away from here, truly fed up with the contempt and pity from others.

Zhou Guifang was still angry, criticizing Old Lady Wu all the way, and Luo Qiao consoled her, "Alright, let’s not be angry anymore. This time, it was a child who got hurt. If it were an adult, I probably wouldn’t have agreed to help them from the start."

Zhou Guifang asked, "Do you know that Old Lady Wu?"

Luo Qiao shook her head, "I couldn’t recognize someone with such poor character. I just happened to overhear her slandering our family, slandering Big Brother and Second Brother. I didn’t know who she was, but I made sure to remember what she looked like."

Zhou Guifang sighed and said, "The rest of the Wu Family is alright. It’s just that Old Lady Wu came out wrong. Nobody wants to deal with the Wu Family because of her. She cannot keep her mouth shut and gossips about everyone. There’s not a single family that meets her standards.

Because of her mouth, she’s almost antagonized all the residents around here. Her eldest grandson is a year older than your Big Brother and still hasn’t settled down. Fortunately, their second grandson is capable. He had a love marriage and got married last year."

As the two were talking, they entered the courtyard and saw their grandfather and second brother cooking in the kitchen, "Grandpa, Second Brother, we’re back."

Luo Daoren asked, "How did it go? Is the child alright?"

Zhou Guifang said angrily, "That Old Lady Wu is really awful. Qiaoqiao was setting her grandson’s bone, and she just pushed Qiaoqiao away. It’s really infuriating."

Luo Qiao comforted her grandmother by hugging her shoulders, "It’s okay, Grandma. Let’s not be angry anymore. From now on, we’ll just stay out of the Wu Family’s business; it’s not worth getting upset over them."

As Zhou Guifang listened to Luo Qiao and started to feel a bit better, she remembered the Zhang Family’s daughter-in-law, "And that daughter-in-law from the Zhang Family too. The Wu Family hadn’t even thought about calling Qiaoqiao over, but she had to show off and yell for Qiaoqiao to come.

"Living in the same neighborhood, how could we not go? If you want to be a good person, don’t do it by stepping over others. Acting like she’s so kind-hearted, what kind of person does that?"

Zhou Guifang’s voice was not soft, and it so happened that Old Lady Zhang, who had come over with her daughter-in-law to apologize, heard her outside the courtyard, blushing with shame even before entering, glaring fiercely at her daughter-in-law.

Thinking to herself, it was simply looking for trouble. They originally had a good relationship, but this fuss had now offended the Luo Family as well. If it were another family’s issue, maybe they would even be grateful.

But what kind of person is Old Lady Wu? Someone who always argues even when she’s in the wrong and has been causing chaos for half her life around here. What if something serious really happened today? If Old Lady Wu decided to accuse the Luo Family, what kind of mess would that create?

It was more and more infuriating the more she thought about it. It’s not that helping others is bad, but you also need to consider whom you are helping. Today, it even caused the Luo Family’s granddaughter to be upset—truly a thankless task.

When Old Lady Zhang heard the conversation from inside the courtyard, her face was filled with embarrassment. But since she was there, she couldn’t just leave and had reached the courtyard gate when she heard Luo Qiao saying, "It’s okay, Grandma. It’s beneath us to get upset over these people."

Zhou Guifang fumed, "If she wants to show off, let her find someone else. Why should you wade into the mess for her? It’s just sickening, how she poses as weak and innocent day by day. What a piece of work."

Old Lady Zhang knocked on the door, "Sister-in-law, I’ve brought my daughter-in-law over to apologize to you."

Zhou Guifang turned her head and saw Old Lady Zhang with no improvement in her expression, "We certainly don’t dare accept that. What has she done wrong that she has to apologize for?"

Old Lady Zhang hurriedly replied, "Sister-in-law, please, don’t be angry. My young daughter-in-law is naive and didn’t understand. Just forgive her this time, since she did it to save someone."
