"My sister-in-law, I'm sorry."

Chen Mo's words "Please accept my condolences, sister-in-law" made Yang Tao, who was half-kneeling and whispering, tremble slightly.

She slowly raised her head and looked at Chen Mo.

There is a pitiful temperament about Yang Tao.

She had her face bare and the look in her eyes as she looked at Chen Mo contained a hint of weakness and pity.

"Moge."

Yang Tao called out softly.

There seemed to be a hint of strength in her soft voice.

"Where's Nini?"

Chen Mo half-knelt down beside her and asked softly.

Yang Tao said in a gentle voice: "I asked Li Xiu to take her to Sister Ya's house. She usually likes Sister Zhou Ya very much."

Chen Mo nodded slightly: "Don't be too sad, the dead can't be resurrected."

"I..." Yang Tao shook her head slightly. She wanted to tell Chen Mo the truth, but there were so many people around at this time, so it was better not to say it.

"Has the murderer been caught?" Chen Mo looked at Yang Tao's delicate and dull profile.

"Yeah." Yang Tao nodded slightly.

The truth was clear now, and she wanted to find someone to talk to, not just about the truth of the matter.

More importantly, it was the anger and depression that had been accumulating in her heart for a long time.

She was a woman with a daughter and wanted to go find Chen Wei, but when she got there she found out that Chen Wei had already returned.

Yang Tao was confused and learned from his co-workers that Chen Wei had returned to Qingyang and was working on a construction site.

When she found Chen Wei again, she was impatiently driven away by Chen Wei.

Yang Tao left, but waited for the woman who came to see Chen Wei.

That woman is far inferior to him in both appearance and figure.

Yang Tao didn't understand how he could lose to such a woman.

That day, when she left, my heart was as cold as the weather in December today.

From then on, she vowed not to look back at this man again.

She wandered helplessly around the city with Nini.

It’s not time to go home yet. After all, she said she came out to find Chen Wei.

If I go back immediately, the elderly at home will definitely become suspicious.

Besides, Yang Tao herself didn't want to go back at all.

She was tired of being poor and relying on men for money.

She wants to be self-reliant and live a different life.

By chance, Yang Tao met Ye Shuhui.

After a brief encounter, Yang Tao remembered this distant aunt from the city.

Yang Tao also successfully became what she had imagined herself to be.

However, all that has changed.

There was no lack of Chen Mo, who was squatting beside her, whispering to her with concern.

"It's good that you caught it. It's cold this day, so remember to wear more clothes."

After Chen Mo finished speaking, he slowly stood up.

Yang Tao lowered her eyelids, hummed lightly, and spoke softly.

"Thank you for your concern, Brother Mo."

"..."

At the same time, Ye Shuhui also came over, hugged Yang Tao, and looked at her lovingly.

"Peach, don't be too sad."

“Aunt…”

Yang Tao's eyes suddenly turned red, and she looked pitiful, as if a daughter saw her mother.

Chen Mo sighed and stood aside.

That's when.

There was a noisy sound in the lobby, mixed with crying.

Then, a woman in her fifties or sixties with a ferocious face suddenly rushed towards Yang Tao.

"It's all because of you, this unlucky star!"

The woman was none other than Chen Wei's mother.

Her voice was shrill and her eyes were wide open as if she was going to eat a star fruit.

"You unlucky bastard, it's all your fault. If I hadn't married a damn woman like you, my son wouldn't have to work!"

"If I didn't work, this wouldn't happen, you rotten woman!"

Chen Wei's mother pointed at Yang Tao and cursed at him.

The obscene words used against her were unbearable to hear.

"That was your son who was looking for a woman outside and got chopped up by her husband! Why blame my Taozi?!"

Ye Shuhui stood in front of Yang Tao and retorted righteously.

Yang Tao lowered her head slightly and remained silent. At this moment, it was impossible to see her expression or what she was thinking.

Is it pain?

Or is it the anger of being wronged?

"My son is looking for a woman! Looking for a woman... Isn't it all because of this unlucky Yang Tao who doesn't know how to serve others?! She ignored my son and looked down on him, and she even gave birth to a boy without a penis and said she was not happy!"

Chen Wei's mother's words were even more chilling than the cold winter weather.

Her words also completely revealed all the conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and between husband and wife over the years.

Chen Mo watched all this coldly.

Until Yang Tao slowly stood up and walked in front of Ye Shuhui. She looked at her mother-in-law in front of her coldly.

She said in a faint voice, "I am a rotten woman who has bad luck. Your son is incompetent and only knows how to throw things and hit women at home. It's my fault. He cheated on me because I didn't go home for the New Year and went to that woman's house for a tryst. It's also my fault that he was caught and chopped by that man! Now I have to be pointed at by you and scolded, it's also my fault!"

"Yeah, it's your fault, you bastard!"

After the evil mother-in-law finished speaking, she raised her hand and slapped him.

It hit Yang Tao's face.

There was a crisp and loud snap.

Fortunately, Chen Mo was quick and pulled Yang Tao back, avoiding the attack a little.

But in an instant, red finger marks appeared on Yang Tao's face.

"what are you doing?!"

"How dare you hit my daughter, you bitch!"

"I'll beat you to death, you bitch!"

"Come here, I'm afraid of you..."

For a moment, the scene was in chaos.

Everyone was fighting in a mess, and it was difficult to separate them.

It was not until the arrival of the uncles that the two sides were separated.

This night is destined to be so lively that it will be difficult to fall asleep.

Occasionally, fireworks light up in the night sky.

Celebrate the arrival of the New Year.

The people from my wife's family and my husband's family were separated by the uncles, who tried their best to mediate the conflicts.

In a small house nearby for people to rest.

Yang Tao was sitting aside, her long black hair was disheveled and the red marks on her face were still there.

Ye Shuhui applied some medicine on her.

"Mom, please go back and take care of Nini first. Sister Zhou Ya can't coax her anymore."

"Then Peach... this way."

"Don't worry, I'm here."

Chen Mo comforted Ye Shuhui and asked someone to take her home. Zhou Ya had already brought Nini back to her home in Lao Street to wait for her.

Yang Tao raised her head slightly, looked at Ye Shuhui, and said softly:

"Aunt, you go ahead. Nini is a big thank you. Brother Mo is here and everything will be fine."

Ye Shuhui hugged Yang Tao again, sighed softly, and left.

At this time, only Chen Mo and Yang Tao were left in the room.

"Sister-in-law, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible."

"Ok, I know."

Yang Tao nodded slightly and said softly.

She raised her head and suddenly looked straight at Chen Mo.

There was a hint of aggression and initiative in her eyes.

This kind of look was something Chen Mo had never seen on the timid Yang Tao.

She seemed to have turned dark.

"Moge... do you know?"

"Ok?"

“There’s something I’ve always wanted to do.”

Yang Tao took a step forward and approached Chen Mo, their faces almost touching.

Her breath is as fragrant as orchid, and there is a hint of pitiful charm about her.

“What… huh?!!”

Her red lips were a little cold...
