Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 561

Chapter 561: Chapter 561: Offending Others

Someone nearby leaned in and whispered, "Why bother with her? Look at her, showing off as if her husband’s little bit of authority makes her tail wag to the sky. Every day she’s criticizing this and that, always talking down about rural folks. I really can’t tell if she steams herself or looks down on herself."

The person said, "We’re all living on the same floor. My husband told me to try not to offend anyone."

"Ah, you just got here and don’t know her kind. Whether you offend her or not, it makes no difference."

......

Sister-in-law Feng tossed the vegetables onto the floor when she got home, feeling sullen.

But thinking of Sister-in-law Gong’s husband’s position, she started to feel a bit uneasy.

Just as she was losing herself, Feng Dajun returned home from work.

Seeing her sitting dazed on a chair with two cabbages at her feet and no sign of dinner being made, Feng Dajun frowned slightly, "What’s wrong?"

His voice startled Sister-in-law Feng.

Seeing it was Feng Dajun, she quickly stood up, "Da Jun, after Sister-in-law Gong fell, you said you’d go to Minister Wei’s house to apologize. How did they react back then? Did they give you a hard time? Lately at work, has Minister Wei been making things difficult for you?"

"Why are you dwelling on such nonsense again? Didn’t this matter pass a long time ago? Some time ago you went to see Sister-in-law Gong, didn’t you? Don’t you know their attitude?"

Speaking of this, Sister-in-law Feng felt even less assured.

"How could they possibly have an attitude towards me? You know, I’m just a rural girl; I hardly ever talk with them. That day, I kindly brought eggs to see her, and her tone was indifferent, as if my warm face met a cold backside. If not for your career, I wouldn’t put up with that."

"Why is it always about my career?" Feng Dajun didn’t like hearing this, "No matter what, we have some responsibility for Sister-in-law Gong’s fall. Asking you to bring some gifts is only right, isn’t it?"

"How is it my responsibility? I already told you, she fell because of Lin Chuxia."

Feng Dajun didn’t want to hear more and hung his coat on the rack, changing the subject, "Hurry up and make dinner. I’m starving. I told you before, we can buy more cabbage. If you can’t handle it, we can go together on the weekend, so you don’t have to make one trip for one cabbage."

"Cabbage is expensive now. Wouldn’t it be a waste to let it spoil at home if I buy a lot? Besides, prices might drop soon, and buying in bulk isn’t cost-effective."

Even after saying this, Sister-in-law Feng still felt uneasy.

"In the Northwest, you and Mr. Qin were equals. Now, though your position is slightly higher, I always felt Minister Wei seems to like Mr. Qin more."

Look at how Lin Chuxia and Sister-in-law Gong laugh and get along, yet you haven’t reflected on yourself.

Sister-in-law Feng felt immediately wronged, her eyes reddening as she began to cry and wipe her tears.

"What have I done? I also want to make friends with them, but they look down on me for coming from the countryside. What can I do? If I had Mrs. Qin’s background, driving around in a nice car, they’d flock to me, wouldn’t they? Didn’t you say before that we villagers are different from them? How quickly you’ve forgotten you’re just a bumpkin too? Even if you can’t compete with Qin Yang, how is that my fault? It’s just that Minister Wei and the others look down on your background..."

"What nonsense are you saying now? What does this have to do with anything?"

Feng Dajun was tired of Sister-in-law Feng’s unreasonable arguments.

Sister-in-law Feng was relentless, "Can you say they respect you? Since we came to the compound, have they ever invited you for a drink or party? I heard Li Wei’s family was invited by Mr. Qin for dinner; we were all transferred from the Northwest, the same people. Why didn’t they invite you? Because they look down on you."

"You..." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"What about me? I always remember who I am and my status, unlike you—just days in the city, and you’ve forgotten you’re an old farmer too? Even if you forget your status, others won’t. As long as they remember, you’ll always be a step below them..."

As Sister-in-law Feng’s shouting grew louder, Feng Dajun angrily pushed her away, "Truly unreasonable."
