Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 707: Chapter 707: Refuse to Admit Wrongdoing

The atmosphere in Cheng Su’s family was oppressively low, yet when Mother Qi went back to her own place with Qi Fenglian, she cried and babbled the entire way.

”...I think he’s completely bewitched, that unfilial son, he doesn’t even want his mom anymore, wuu wuu,” scolded Mother Qi.

As Qi Fenglian set down her bag, she couldn’t hold back and said, ”Mom, it’s no wonder they’re both angry. If it were me, I’d be kicking up a huge fuss too. How could you bring yourself to do such a thing? How could you be so muddled?”

To think of such a thing - what on earth was going on in her mother’s mind?

Mother Qi felt somewhat guilty but still retorted stubbornly, ”It’s their fault for not having children. I was only thinking of the Qi family’s future.”

”They didn’t say they weren’t going to have kids, just that they wanted to wait. You’ve already waited for decades, what’s waiting a few more years to you?” said Qi Fenglian irritably. ”Look at what you’ve done now, what kind of situation is this? The daughter-in-law from Taiguo wouldn’t have expected to get pregnant because she thought the contraception was foolproof and didn’t pay attention to whether she was pregnant or not. But what you did, wasn’t that just setting her up for disaster? Now look, just like that, an accident happened!”

”That was just a coincidence, it’s not like I caused her miscarriage. If you want to blame someone, blame that ’Fox Spirit,’” Mother Qi argued.

”But if you hadn’t meddled first, she wouldn’t have gotten pregnant just like that, and then there wouldn’t have been a miscarriage!” exclaimed Qi Fenglian.

Mother Qi was taken aback and opened her mouth to say, ”That’s just because she’s no good herself!”

Upon hearing this, Qi Fenglian shook her head and said, ”Mom, look at yourself, you’re just so stubborn, never admitting you’re wrong, never giving in. That’s why Taiguo is disappointed and asked you to leave; you’re just turning people’s hearts cold!”

”I am his mother!”

”What of it, they still asked you to leave, didn’t they? Just you watch, if Cheng Su doesn’t recover well, can’t get pregnant again, you’ll have been the one who shot yourself in the foot,” Qi Fenglian snorted coldly.

Mother Qi was stunned, ”That couldn’t be, could it?”

”Anything’s possible. She wasn’t supposed to get pregnant, but this time she did, didn’t she? Isn’t that an accident?” said Qi Fenglian, eyeing her.

Mother Qi pursed her lips and said nothing.

”Mom, you were unkind this time. Right now, Taiguo and the others are still livid, so you better not add fuel to the fire. Wait until their anger cools down, then make a proper apology to Taiguo’s wife, and this will all blow over.”

Mother Qi glared and said, ”What, I, an elder, should apologize to them? What kind of reasoning is that? I won’t do it!”

She was the mother-in-law after all!

Seeing her mother so stubbornly single-minded, Qi Fenglian became exasperated and said, ”You’ve made a mistake, what’s wrong with admitting it? Would you be happy to become estranged from them? Mom, let me tell you, even if you do apologize, Cheng Su might not even accept it. But it’s always better to do something than nothing!”

”She dares not to accept it? She always has an excuse not to have a child; she should’ve been divorced a long time ago, hmph, she even says whether to give birth is her business, as if that’s ever the case!” Mother Qi couldn’t help getting angry when she thought about what Cheng Su had said.

”If you continue like this, I can’t help you, it’s up to you. But just think about it, is divorce that easy? What about Taiguo’s future, does that not matter? If he finds someone else after divorce, would they be better than Cheng Su? Better at earning money than her?” said Qi Fenglian.

Mother Qi paused, falling silent.

Qi Fenglian sighed and said, ”Mom, put yourself in her shoes, how would you feel if you were wronged like this? Everyone has their limits! You just stay home and rest, I still need to go to work. Tomorrow, I’ll send you back to your house.”

Mother Qi sat down on a small stool with a huff, her lips pursed in sulky silence.
