Chapter 1558: Chapter 1558: Courtyard Life (10)

"You, you shameless woman, if you have the guts, don’t hide!" The woman shouted, once again lunging at Jiang Xue. But Jiang Xue wouldn’t let her succeed and directly raised her leg to kick towards the woman.

Jiang Xue can tolerate anything, but she absolutely won’t tolerate being taken advantage of. Even though she knows this might affect her image badly, she won’t allow others to bully her.

As for Sister-in-law Wang and Wang Ke, they were stunned, watching the scene without reacting for a long time. She couldn’t figure it out; it was supposed to be just an argument, and she hadn’t planned to engage with the other party, yet it had escalated to this?

The other women watching the two about to fight immediately stepped in to intervene. It was just a joke; although they weren’t the ones fighting, being present meant they could get involved.

Everyone held the military wife back, and Jiang Xue naturally wouldn’t make another move. Instead, she looked at her coldly, meeting her gaze.

"Jiang Xue, are you alright?" Sister-in-law Wang approached and asked Jiang Xue.

"Don’t worry, sister-in-law, I’m fine!"

Upon hearing that Jiang Xue was alright, Sister-in-law Wang was relieved and then said to the woman, "Jiang Xue is new here, don’t take it personally with her. Also, you don’t need to worry about my Old Wang."

Once she finished speaking, Sister-in-law Wang took Jiang Xue’s hand and left. And the woman watched as the two walked away, fuming inside, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn’t rush in to fight again.

Actually, she was already regretting it now. Because she remembered who Jiang Xue was, she felt a bit scared. The reputation of Mu Qiancheng was known to all the women in the compound. They knew he was not someone to mess with, so they never dared to say anything in front of him.

And Jiang Xue was Mu Qiancheng’s wife; if he found out she had hit his wife, the consequences... Liu Jinhua didn’t dare think further, pulling back her resentful gaze from Jiang Xue and the others.

"Jinhua, you were impulsive today. That was Mr. Mu’s wife; we all have to call her sister-in-law. If Mr. Mu gets angry, it could be bad for your Old Wu."

"That’s right, Jinhua, you need to change your temper."

A few women advised Wang Jinhua, then each went home, leaving Liu Jinhua on her own. To be honest, they didn’t really like Liu Jinhua. However, since they all lived in the same compound, they would see each other often and could exchange some words.

As for being close, no one would want to be friends with someone like Liu Jinhua.

Returning upstairs, Sister-in-law Wang stopped, then looked at Jiang Xue with a reluctant expression.

Jiang Xue looked at her, smiled, and asked, "Sister-in-law, what’s up? Just say it."

"Jiang Xue, thank you for today!" Sister-in-law Wang said sincerely. Usually, she would treat Liu Jinhua’s sour words or provocations as if they were nothing, not bothering to respond.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Liu Jinhua thought she was easy to bully and became increasingly presumptuous. If Jiang Xue hadn’t stood up today, she would have pretended not to hear it herself. However, having someone stand up for you felt pretty good.

"Sister-in-law, you scared me. I thought it was something serious. Oh, it’s just a matter of standing up against injustice." Jiang Xue patted Sister-in-law Wang’s shoulder, telling her not to take the matter to heart.

"Let’s go home!" Jiang Xue said with a smile, then carried the child in one arm and held things in the other as she went home.

Returning home, Jiang Xue put down her belongings and Little Reunion, then took out a fruit, peeled it, and handed it to Little Reunion to munch on.
