Jie Jianjun remained silent. He thought about how his mother had treated his former sister-in-law, and he couldn't find a single word to defend her.
'Can Zhang Hongyan even compare to Qiao Yanqiu? Zhang Hongyan's family couldn't measure up to the Jie Family, but Qiao Yanqiu's family is the Qiao Family—the Qiao Family! Mother dared to bully Zhang Hongyan as she pleased, but would she dare to lay a hand on Qiao Yanqiu?'
'If Mother and Qiao Yanqiu lived together, there would be absolutely no mother-in-law-daughter-in-law conflict. Jing Si is just bringing up Zhang Hongyan as an excuse. He simply doesn't want to live with the elders and wants to shirk his filial duty.'
"Our eldest aunt married our eldest uncle, so being filial to Granny is her obligation," Jie Anlin said.
