Ms. Zhang trembled with anger, her face flushed. Yet, she lowered her head and refrained from uttering a word.

Still, her anger burned within her as she cursed Ms. Yan for being sneaky and her mother-in-law for being foolish enough to trust Ms. Yan’s flattering words so easily.

In her view, Ms. Yan constantly flattered the first section of the family, which resulted in them showering her with treats. However, they never extended such favors to her, making her feel utterly unfairly treated.

Ms. Zhang seethed with anger. With the New Year approaching and the first section of the family already distributing gifts to the in-laws, she wondered what her mother-in-law’s plan was.

Reluctant to ask directly, she privately vented her frustrations to her husband.

Shao Erlang held disdain for the Zhang Family, feeling repulsed by them. Nevertheless, he acknowledged Ms. Zhangs valid point. They should present gifts to their own family during the New Year; otherwise, it would be seen as mistreatment of the daughter-in-law, causing her great humiliation.

Shao Erlang mustered the courage to propose the idea to Ms. Niu. However, before he could complete his suggestion, Ms. Niu snapped, “She instructed you to ask me, didn’t she? What is she thinking? Gifts for the New Year?

Absolutely not! Tell her to leave.”

“It’s out of the question!”

“Tell her she can either live honestly or leave this family!’

Shao Erlang panicked, attempting to defend Ms. Zhang, but even his own words sounded unreasonable to his ears.

Ultimately, he was scolded by his mother, failing to protect his wife.

Ms. Zhang cried, overcome by a mix of sadness and anger.

Weren’t they supposed to forgive her for what had happened? It was all a lie! No one had forgotten that incident or truly forgiven her.

She could sense that her husband still harbored resentment against her whenever the incident was brought up.

But it wasn’t her fault! Not at all! They were at fault too!

Ms. Zhang no longer dared to mention the gifts to her mother, which filled her with guilt.

However, Ms. Niu kept her away from anything valuable, and she couldn’t even sneak anything out.

Out of pity, Shao Erlang managed to give her some extra money.

But it was so little, merely three qian, barely enough for anything!

While Shao Erlang earned a decent income each month, Ms. Niu never shared any money with her. The thought of that irritated Ms. Zhang even more.

She believed that since her husband earned the money, she deserved to receive one-third of his earnings. Wasn’t that how it worked with the first section of the family? They put half of what they earned into shared savings and kept the other half…

Frustrated and enraged, she conceived an idea when she overheard Ms. Niu discussing Shao Meilings upcoming marriage. It was said that Shao Meilings fiancé would visit in a few days.

Ms. Zhang contemplated causing some trouble.

She had done it before and was already disliked. If her plan failed, she would be doomed.

Ms. Niu would never forgive her again. And that wretched Ms. Yan would only add fuel to the fire,

Yet, every time she saw Ms. Niu, Ms. Yan, and the first section of the family, Ms. Zhang couldn’t control her anger. Her heart burned with fiery hatred.

It was a wretched and miserable feeling.

She couldn’t sleep, tormented day and night.

After contemplating for a while and refining her plan repeatedly, Ms. Zhang finally decided to set her scheme in motion. She found her excuses and explanations prepared, ready to ignite the trouble she had in mind..
