Mu Jiujiu went upstairs and did not come down again. She thought that she really did not suit to appear in front of that mother and daughter anymore in such a subtly awkward atmosphere.
When dinner time came, Tang Jin hadn't returned, so she didn't go downstairs either, only saying that she was feeling a bit unwell. It wasn't long before grandma came up, took her small hand, and implored her earnestly, hoping she could live in harmony with Tang Xiu because family harmony was the key to prosperity.
In fact, Mu Jiujiu didn't want to pick a quarrel with Tang Xiu. If possible, she too hoped to keep the peace. Seeing that grandma had come up personally to persuade her, she had to give herself an out, "Grandma, no matter what, she is still my sister-in-law. I won't stoop to her level. As long as she doesn't provoke me again, I will definitely keep the peace."
