Chapter 379: Chapter 375: Buying People_1

"Oh dear, my dear fourth sister-in-law, just look how you have angered our Mother." Lady Lin, the third wife, said, chuckling as she made her way over to take a seat next to her mother-in-law.

Xiu Zhenniang turned to Lady Lin. "Third sister-in-law, how have I upset Mother?"

Lady Lin feigned surprise. "If not for you, why would our Mother have traveled all this way to this wretched place?"

Xiu Zhenniang slightly smirked, "I thought Mother was here for Shushu's wedding, it seems that's not the case."

She then turned to her husband. "Silang, is Mother here to reprimand you?"

Wen Silang, who was attempting to slip away, was forced to respond by his wife's question. In a good temper, he replied, "How could that be? Mother specifically came for Shushu's wedding."

Lady Wen's expression turned even colder, yet she refrained from arguing before her son.
