The Schoolgirl Secret Agent

Yun Yi sounded a little extreme but the crowd understood the truth now. Lu Lanhua was a horrible mother-in-law. She mistreated her daughter-in-law, Qin Yirou, in the past and now that she saw the latter remarry herself with a better life and successful children, she was shameless enough to come and ask for money.

She was one shameless old hag!

The gossiping women there were women who had fought their mothers-in-law before. For the average women, the mother and daughter-in-law relationship was a challenge unless the mother-in-law was a graceful and benevolent woman. That was why they hated unreasonable mothers-in-law.

The moment Lu Lanhua's image as a horrible mother-in-law materialized, the crowd pointed fingers and threw criticisms at her. The gossiping women rushed back to their homes to retrieve an assortment of vegetables and eggs to throw them at Lu Lanhua.

The older woman who helped Lu Lanhua up just now let go of her hold on the latter directly upon hearing what Yun Yi said. That was not all. She shoved Lu Lanhua to the ground again and scolded her, "Oh, great! The b*tch is actually you! I was just wondering why'd Qin Yirou become who you described out of the blue when she's been nothing but nice! Old hag, piss off! Get out of here! You're extraordinarily shameless, you know that? How dare you come here and ask Qin Yirou for money?!"

"Get out of here, old hag! Get out of our residential area! You don't deserve to be in here!"

…

Insults and scolding like this went on but the real horror was that these gossipers ran home to bring their vegetables and eggs out to throw them at Lu Lanhua.

"Fine! Just you wait! You're all trash! Scums of the society! You're attacking an old woman here! I'll sue you and see you in the police station!"

Lu Lanhua scrambled up from the ground, wiping away the vegetables and eggs on her face while aggressively shouting back at Yun Jian, Yun Yi and the women who were throwing things at her.

She had never been the kind of old woman who bowed down in admitting that she had been wrong, and she was infamous for being a fiery, stubborn woman in Xinjiang Town.

Of course Lu Lanhua would not press charges against them in the police station. She was only saying that as an excuse to flee.

She fled as she cursed them, incorrigible and absolutely abhorring.

When Lu Lanhua was far enough, the others including the women who criticized Qin Yirou earlier came over to apologize to Yun Jian before they left.

Not too long after the crowd dissipated, Qin Yirou came back through the gate.

Yun Jian and Yun Yi went to her when they saw her.

"Xiao Jian, Xiao Yi, what… happened here?" Qin Yirou asked curiously seeing the vegetables and cracked eggs on the ground.

"A mouse wanted to steal things but it got thrashed. Mom, let's go home." Yun Jian came up with an excuse for the "battleground" just now as she tugged Qin Yirou's hand and walked toward their house.

Qin Yirou who had long forgotten that it was her birthday today nodded and followed Yun Jian home. The moment she stepped inside, she saw the spread of dishes on the dining table. It was so lavish that a banquet could be hosted.

She was stunned when she saw it and turned to ask Yun Jian, "Xiao Jian, what day is it today?"

"It's your birthday, mom," Yun Jian smiled and said, "Happy birthday, mom!"

That took Qin Yirou aback.

It was then Ge Junjian carried the cake out from the kitchen and told Qin Yirou, "Darling, happy birthday! This is the first birthday I'm celebrating with you and I'll spend every birthday after this with you too!"

Realization struck Qin Yirou. Her daughter and husband had given her the cold shoulder in the morning because they were preparing this huge surprise for her! Her eyes were rimmed red immediately.
