Some people say that a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law are natural enemies. Although these words were a little exaggerated, there was indeed often a barrier and friction between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
The child that she had raised painstakingly and pampered in her heart would only have her daughter-in-law in his eyes when he grew up. A mother-in-law would definitely be jealous. It was fine if there was no conflict, but once there was a conflict, her son would stand on her daughter-in-law’s side. As a mother, she would definitely feel uncomfortable. Hence, after the incident, Meng Yueman was also very angry with Mu Huan.
She felt that it was all because of her that her son would do such a thing. Furthermore, she was by Bo Junyan’s side and did not stop him from doing such a thing!
Bo Junyan knew that his mother would definitely be angry with Mu Huan over such a matter. Hence, he did not allow Mu Huan to speak, nor did he say that he was doing this for the sake of his wife. Instead, he said that it was for the sake of the grandson that his mother had always wanted.
His words were very effective.
Meng Yueman, who was so angry that she didn’t want Bo Junyan as her son and blamed Mu Huan in her heart, couldn’t get angry anymore.
She was not a brainless and foolishly filial person. She knew that this matter was her father’s fault. She was unwilling to let the rumors spread that her daughter-in-law was such a bad person. Now that her son had said this, thinking that this kind of reputation would affect the next generation, she felt even worse. She felt that she had no reason to be angry.
This was why, in the beginning, the relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law depended on how the husband handled things. If the husband could adjust it well, he would not be stuck between a rock and a hard place. Instead, he could make the two most important women in his life get along well.
“Mom, it’s getting late. You should rest early. If you’re worried about Grandpa, you can go to the Imperial Capital tomorrow to visit him. Stay by his side for a while more,” Bo Junyan said as he stood up.
He had always been a man of few words. Tonight, he had said too much for Mu Huan’s sake. Seeing that his mother’s anger had subsided, there was nothing else he could say.
Although Meng Yueman felt that she had no right to be angry, it was impossible for her to not be angry when her own son treated her biological father like that.
Hence, Meng Yueman, who was still a little angry, said angrily, “After we meet Xiao Huan’s father and grandma and discuss the wedding, your father and I will return to the Imperial Capital. We won’t cause you trouble here!”
Bo Junyan: “…”
Seeing this, Mu Huan stepped forward and hugged Meng Yueman’s arm affectionately. “Mom, why would you be a bother to Junyan? We really want you to stay by our side forever! Really!”
Mu Huan was a tough person when she was being strong. She was also good at acting coquettishly. Her sweet words could melt one’s heart.
However, if Meng Yueman was in a fit of anger just now, it would be useless for her to act coquettishly. Meng Yueman would not let her get close to her, much less listen to her.
Now, more than half of her anger had subsided, and she had regained her rationality. She realized that Mu Huan was also a victim, and she shouldn’t blame her for anything. Furthermore, she had used such a tender and gentle voice to say such sweet words, so it wasn’t appropriate for her to push her away.
Her anger subsided.
But her expression remained stern.
“Mom knows that Junyan isn’t good at talking!”
“Does he still not know how to speak? Look at how well he spoke just now! My grandson hasn’t even appeared, and he’s already saying that he did it for the sake of my grandson! And he’s even saying it so seriously! No one can speak better than him!” Meng Yueman glared at Bo Junyan as she spoke.
