Moreover, from beginning to end, the one in the wrong has always been Jiang Wan.
Mrs. Fu doesn't bother to understand the truth and just blindly stands by Jiang Wan—truly mindless.
In the past, Jiang Xin wouldn't stoop to communicating with someone of such low intellect.
But now there's no choice; after receiving the original owner's memories just now while alone in the room, she thought a lot.
In this era, going out and doing anything requires an introduction letter.
She can't wait to leave the Fu Family, but she also has to face a fact.
That is, once she leaves the Fu Family, she really has nowhere to go.
Even if the things in her space can be sold for money, without an identity proof, she can't even rent a house.
The original owner's parents are far away in another province, and she doesn't know the exact address, so there's no way to seek refuge.
The whole Jiang Wan family is heartless, impossible to rely on.
Moreover, right now, she is still in a married status, with no choice but to wait for Fu Yu's return so she can divorce him herself.
Only then can she completely regain her freedom!
Right now, it's not the time to completely fall out with the Fu family.
But being insulted by Mrs. Fu in this manner, Jiang Xin truly can't tolerate it at all.
She lowered her head, seeing Mrs. Fu completely lose the arrogance she had earlier, Jiang Xin tightened her grip on her arm even more.
Mrs. Fu was in so much pain that tears started forming.
She wanted to curse angrily.
But feared further infuriating Jiang Xin; if Jiang Xin applied more force, her aged limbs could not bear it.
Mrs. Fu thought bitterly, if she could redo this, she definitely wouldn't let Fu Yu marry Jiang Xin, the jinx!
But now it's too late to regret!
Seeing Mrs. Fu's tear-streaked appearance truly couldn't stir any sympathy in Jiang Xin.
After all, just now, Mrs. Fu's insults towards her were still fresh in her memory.
Jiang Xin sneered coldly; she never was the kind-hearted person who could tolerate all malice towards herself.
She started to analyze point by point for Mrs. Fu:
"I hope you get one thing straight: it was Jiang Wan who came to find me."
"You keep saying I bullied her. Do you have any evidence?"
"Before understanding the whole situation, you're calling me a beast and even insulting my parents—isn't it that I'm being too respectful to you?"
Jiang Xin's voice was icy, her words capable of freezing people.
She wasn't someone who disrespects the elderly; it's simply because Mrs. Fu's actions were excessive.
Since Mrs. Fu never treated her as a daughter-in-law, then naturally, she didn't need to treat Mrs. Fu as others would treat their mother-in-law.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
If she were like the original owner, swallowing grievances silently, she would likely be angered to death.
Mrs. Fu knew she shouldn't cower, but couldn't help shivering in the cold.
After hearing Jiang Xin's words, she was momentarily stunned.
What Jiang Xin said was indeed true; she rushed into the room and pinned the blame on Jiang Xin.
Without listening to Jiang Xin's defense, she simply assumed Jiang Xin hit Jiang Wan.
Plus, she vaguely recalled hearing Jiang Wan say that things weren't as she imagined.
Could there really be a misunderstanding here?
Mrs. Fu started doubting herself.
But then she thought, Jiang Wan's right cheek was swollen; could it have been self-inflicted?
With this thought, Mrs. Fu regained her confidence and sternly questioned Jiang Xin:
"What happened to Xiao Wan's face?!!"
"Explain it to me. I don't believe she hit herself, do you?"
After saying this, Mrs. Fu glanced at her arm that Jiang Xin was gripping painfully.
She spoke again:
"No matter what, I'm still your mother-in-law now."
"You ill-mannered thing, let go of me quickly!"
In response, Jiang Xin gave her a cold, expressionless look.
She was already annoyed today; Jiang Wan's matter had wasted too much of her time.
At this moment, she really didn't want to continue arguing with Mrs. Fu.
If she had that time, she could go out and investigate the village's terrain.
Her pockets were empty, and although the original owner's parents sent her money and tickets, it wasn't enough for long-term expenses.
Only by finding a way to earn money herself can she truly survive in this era.
Thus, Jiang Xin had no more patience to argue with Mrs. Fu, no matter how much she explained, Mrs. Fu wouldn't believe her.
Jiang Xin directly admitted that she hit Jiang Wan:
"The palm print on her face is indeed my doing, no point hiding that."
"But... why don't you ask your future daughter-in-law why I hit her?"
Jiang Xin smirked disdainfully, tossing the question back to Jiang Wan, ignoring Mrs. Fu.
Mrs. Fu, after hearing Jiang Xin's words, already had a head not too clear, was now completely baffled.
Her head buzzed, unable to process.
So she turned to Jiang Wan, waiting for Jiang Wan's explanation.
"Xiao Wan, if you've suffered any injustice, do not hide it, only telling Aunt can help you."
Afraid that Jiang Wan might not be honest, Mrs. Fu quickly added a sentence after turning her head.
Jiang Wan originally hoped to muddle through, standing quietly without speaking.
But Jiang Xin directly asked Mrs. Fu to question her, making Jiang Wan panic.
She looked up and met Jiang Xin's gaze, her heartbeat accelerated wildly, fearing the consequences if she hesitated, worried that Jiang Xin would reveal everything she did right in front of Fu Yu's parents.
So she almost without thinking, exclaimed:
"Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!"
"Auntie, you misunderstood Jiang Xin. The slap on my face was because she saw a fly land there and hit it!"
After speaking, without waiting for Fu Yu's parents to react, Jiang Wan quickly pulled Fu's father and mother out of Jiang Xin's room.
Thus, the matter was temporarily settled.
Outside the room, Mrs. Fu realized and continued to question Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan, on the other side, responded with extreme impatience.
Jiang Xin listened to the commotion from inside the room feeling extremely speechless.
How could she call Jiang Wan stupid?
No fool would believe the reason she gave!
Who slaps mosquitoes by hitting themselves in the face?
Completely unreasonable!
No wonder Mrs. Fu didn't believe it; if it were her, she'd only think Jiang Wan was treating her like a fool!
Jiang Xin felt extremely speechless, but luckily the three of them finally left her room.
At last, her ears were peaceful.
