Resignation was written all over Matthew’s face because he knew no one could reason with a person who refused to listen.

Sasha was irritated by what her mother said. “Mom, how could you say something like that? Matthew just offered his opinion out of kindness. How did he offend you by doing that?”

Helen rolled her eyes and she didn’t bother to answer. Demi sniggered right away and commented sarcastically, “Does he have the right to offer his opinion when Dad and Mom are here?

Why doesn’t he look at his own reflection in the mirror first to see whether he has the right to speak up? Does he know what it means by being a live-in son-in-law?

In ancient times, his status will be similar to a girl who stays with her husband’s family, and will not be allowed to have meals at the dining table with the rest of the family. Besides, he isn’t allowed to talk when her parents-in-law are talking. That’s the rule. Doesn’t he understand that?”

Sasha, who was exasperated by Demi’s comment, retorted, “Demi, what nonsense are you talking about? We are in modern times now! We are a married couple and we enjoy equal statuses in our relationship.

Mom, since you are the senior in our family, we are obligated to respect you, but you should remind yourself to behave like one too. Would you please quit thinking that everyone else is inferior to you? Marrying me doesn’t make Matthew any different from everyone else, not to mention he isn’t less respectable than anyone!”

Helen was angered by what Sasha said. “What do you mean? Oh, are you saying I have to be respectful toward him in the future? Do I need to get down on my knees and offer him kowtows everytime I meet him from now on?”
