Chen Lijuan, who hailed from a mountain village and grew up doing farm work, possessed considerable strength. She slapped Ning Rongyue so hard that her ears buzzed, sending her stumbling into a wall.
"Don't think you're so high and mighty just because you became some rich family's young lady! Hmph, I spit on that!"
Ning Rongyue covered her face as Chen Lijuan's shrill scolding rang in her ears. "That lowly wretch Yun Shu secretly had affairs and bore two bastards behind my brother's back! And my brother still dotes on them like precious treasures. It's disgusting just thinking about it!"
"Hah! Like mother, like daughter. You used to call my son 'Cousin,' didn't you? What, now that there's no blood relation, you want to be my daughter-in-law? Hmph! My family might be poor, but we don't take in any trash!"
