Tang Hebe's outstretched hand was left hanging in the air. She felt so wronged at that moment. 

"Auntie, I don't know what my family did to make you hate them so much," started Tang Hebe. "But how is it any of my fault? You are known to be a kind woman. You're always reasonable and sensible. Why is it that you become like this with me?"

Do you really think I have no way of getting rid of you just because my son loves you? Don't be mistaken. I'm only not doing it for my son's sake." She pushed her hair back and sighed, "Also, stop looking like a bullied daughter-in-law. Yes, I'm an evil mother-in-law but I haven't bullied you yet."
