Everyone wanted to laugh when they heard Shen Can's inner complaint, but they desperately held it in.
After entering the house, Huo Xi looked at Xu Qingqing and said, "I happened to have something to discuss with Shen Can, so I brought Shen Zhuo over for you while I was at it, saving you the trouble of picking him up again, Sister-in-law."
Xu Qingqing thanked Huo Xi. The moment she finished speaking, Liu Yuming immediately said, "How could you trouble Huo Xi with bringing your child over?"
"Do you have any sense of propriety at all? Your family background is so poor that you're completely unworthy of Shen Yu, yet you don't even know how to conduct yourself. I really don't know what my sister was thinking, letting you marry into the family."
"If I have no sense of propriety, then does Uncle? I thought everyone knew that we should uphold the family's dignity in front of outsiders. But Uncle openly insults his own family in front of others. Isn't that damaging the Shen Household's reputation?"
"I know Uncle doesn't like me, and I haven't said anything about it before. But it's one thing for Uncle to keep finding fault with me and picking at me. Now you're even trying to make trouble for me in front of outsiders. Is this Uncle's ability to handle matters?"
Xu Qingqing could not endure it any longer. She had already taken enough abuse today. Never mind that Liu Yuming was a fake—even if he were real, she would not want to put up with him anymore.
*[Sister-in-law said it perfectly!! This is exactly how she should talk back. I seriously hate this kind of behavior too—parents beating or scolding their children in front of outsiders, or bosses and store managers harshly reprimanding employees
