Looking at her isolated and utterly helpless, Zhaodi was filled with satisfaction, extremely relieved.
In her past life, Sun Lixia had picked up the old lady's ten yuan and falsely accused her mother, even though that ten yuan was what her mother had saved up from washing clothes for others in the dead of winter!
There was also the time they forced her eldest sister to marry a lame widower, pushed her second sister to marry a thug addicted to domestic abuse, and tried to make her marry an ugly man—all these debts of sin, she would claim back!
Unbeknownst to her, both Jiang Mianmian and Jiang Changhai had seen her expression and discreetly looked away.
So the previously stern-faced Jiang Changhai suddenly spoke, "Mom, let it be, the pocket watch has been found."
Rather than deal with the plainly stupid Sun Lixia, he was less willing to be used by Zhaodi as a pawn against the Third Branch.
