Chapter 623: Always Remember Your Status

Madam Mo scoffed at Qiao Mianmian’s calm composure. “The Mo Family isn’t held back by old traditions. But as a prestigious family, we would still like my sons to marry someone of comparable social status. Even if they fall in love with someone from a small family, we will accept her as long as she’s prim and proper.

“Sometimes, moral character is more important than family status.

“I hope I’m clear enough with my views. I’m not saying that the Qiao and Mo families are incompatible. I’m not stopping you from dating Ah Si. Although I don’t ask for much, it doesn’t mean that I don’t have expectations.”

With this, Madam Mo’s expression changed. “Since you have married my son, you’re Mo family’s Madam now. You should be clear of your status, know how to behave, and not do anything that will damage our Mo family’s reputation.”

Madam Mo did not spare a thought for Qiao Mianmian’s feelings.

She didn’t even pretend to maintain harmony.

The expression of others on the table changed.

Qiao Mianmian’s gaze met Madam Mo’s sharp eyes. She was stunned for a few seconds. Guessing what she was referring to, she said, “Mom, are you talking about…”

Seeing her continue to feign ignorance, her expressions became worse. “What happened with your ex-fiancé? You’re now together with Ah Si, yet you’re still entangled with your ex? Qiao Mianmian, what do you regard our Mo family as?”

Old Madam turned her head to look at Qiao Mianmian. She frowned, but still said calmly, “Mianmian, what’s your mother-in-law talking about?”

“What other matter could I be referring to?” Madam Mo replied coldly. “It’s all over the news. Everyone saw it already. Have you given a thought about how Ah Si would feel? Mom, you have said that it would be fortunate if Ah Si can find a wife no matter what background she comes from. As long as Ah Si is happy, we have nothing much to ask for, and there’s no need to marry someone of similar status.

“But…” Madam Mo again glared at Qiao Mianmian with her sharp eyes. “I can look past my daughter-in-law’s family status, but I cannot look past her character.”

The meal couldn’t continue with Madam Mo’s words.

“Mianmian, what exactly is going on?”

Old Madam looked at Qiao Mianmian tenderly.

She did not believe Madam Mo’s words.

She had seen all types of people in her life.

She trusted her own judgment.

She believed her granddaughter-in-law was obedient and honest. She would definitely not do anything scandalous with her ex.

There had to be some misunderstanding.

She had never misjudged anyone before.

Her grandson was also very clever and had good judgment. He wouldn’t have married a promiscuous girl.

“Grandma, there’s a misunderstanding.”

Qiao Mianmian was unfazed. She met Madam Mo’s cold gaze and said politely, “It did not happen like that. Someone’s spreading rumors on purpose.”
