Qin Mei shoved the enamel cup in her hand into Shen Qing's, then moved closer to Mrs. Xie. She affectionately linked her arm with Mrs. Xie's and rested her head on her shoulder, looking for all the world like a mother- and daughter-in-law who shared a deep bond.
Qin Mei nuzzled Mrs. Xie's shoulder coquettishly and said in a sweet voice, "My mom is the most understanding and best mother-in-law in the entire world. She would never mistreat her daughter-in-law. Since I have a good mother-in-law, naturally I'll be a good daughter-in-law. Mom, don't listen to Second Aunt trying to sow discord. As long as you treat me well, I'll be twice as filial to you."
Shen Qing was speechless. Qin Mei had just shown her what it meant to be good to the good and evil to the evil.
It was no wonder Aunt Qiao liked Qin Mei. If it were her, Shen Qing could never bring herself to act so cute and coquettish. She'd be too embarrassed to do that in front of her own mother, let alone Aunt Qiao.
