Chapter 1369: Chapter 1370: Not Acknowledging

"Mother, what is that in your hand?" Su Yunjin cut straight to the point.

Her gaze bore down on Mrs. An.

Mrs. An felt guilty and shifted her hand behind her back, stammering in denial, "Nothing, nothing, what could it be?" She regretted not having put the medicine powder in the pot earlier.

Now that Su Yunjin had seen it, it was truly troublesome. It would be no issue if Su Yunjin were someone easy to manipulate, but contrarily, Su Yunjin was resolute and not easy to deal with.

Though Mrs. An said nothing aloud, she was inwardly figuring out how to get Su Yunjin to listen to her and consume the medicine given by Granny Yu.

Su Yunjin stepped forward.

Snatching the yellow paper from Mrs. An’s hand, she challenged, "Mother, how do you explain this?" The paper was used to wrap the medicine powder, and even though Mrs. An had managed to dump the powder into the pot, there were still some specks left on the yellow paper.

Stunned for a moment.

Mrs. An reflexively tried to snatch the yellow paper from Su Yunjin’s hand.

Of course, Su Yunjin wasn’t going to let Mrs. An take it back.

She stepped back.

And dodged Mrs. An’s reaching hand.

Mrs. An failed to snatch it the first time and went for a second try. Su Yunjin needed to keep this paper as evidence for Gu Ya and absolutely couldn’t let Mrs. An have it.

Mrs. An attempted again, but Su Yunjin avoided her grasp once more. Once, it would have been effortless for Su Yunjin to dodge her, but now that Su Yunjin was pregnant and less agile, she nearly fell over during her second attempt to dodge. Mrs. An cherished the child in Su Yunjin’s womb.

Seeing Su Yunjin nearly stumble, Mrs. An dared not try snatching the paper again and instead laid her cards on the table, "Enough, my third daughter-in-law, since you’ve seen it, yes, mother added some medicine powder to the pot. But trust me, it is a tonic for you and the baby, consuming it will only be beneficial. The child is the Gu Family’s future, I certainly wouldn’t harm you or the baby." Mrs. An did not reveal to Su Yunjin what the medicine powder was.

Instead, she told Su Yunjin that it was a nutritional supplement.

Su Yunjin wasn’t foolish.

Of course, she wouldn’t be easily fooled by Mrs. An.

She scoffed.

"Mother, is the medicine powder in the pot one that you got from Granny Yu?" Su Yunjin asked directly, not beating around the bush with Mrs. An.

Mrs. An felt scrutinized and grew guilty; she knew this daughter-in-law of hers wasn’t easy to deceive, but she hadn’t expected Su Yunjin to be even more intelligent than she thought.

Mrs. An said nothing.

But Su Yunjin was sure of the answer.

"Mother, let me make this clear: I will not drink the pork bone soup you’ve stewed. And as for the medicine you got from Granny Yu, I refuse to take it even more."

Mrs. An felt that her daughter-in-law was incredibly ungrateful. She had meant well for her and Gu Ya, but to receive no gratitude in return? She had put in so much effort and thought for the sake of the young couple.

And had even spent a piece of silver.

To exert effort, spend money, and still not receive a single kind look from Su Yunjin.

Mrs. An was also angry.

"Third daughter-in-law, you must drink this soup whether you want to or not. I am your mother; you must obey me."

Mrs. An tried to intimidate Su Yunjin.

Su Yunjin scoffed again.

"Mother, no one has yet been able to force me to eat anything I do not wish to, and that includes you." Su Yunjin’s stance was firm.

This only infuriated Mrs. An even more.

Pointing her finger at Su Yunjin, Mrs. An was so angry she couldn’t articulate her words, "You... you...?"

The argument between Su Yunjin and Mrs. An in the room grew louder.

Attracting the attention of Gu Chengxiang.

"What’s going on? What’s happening? Third daughter-in-law, why are you quarreling with your mother?"
