Chapter 126 My parents-in-law said I was considerate and thoughtful

There were still some old vegetables left, so Old Lady Shen poured all the vegetables into the pot and stirred them. When they were almost hot, she took them out.

"time to eat."

The Shen family has been busy since morning till now. They have to entertain relatives and friends when they have a banquet, so they don't have time to sit down and eat.

After the banquet, they had to clean the yard and put away the tables, chairs, and dishes.

It's after 8 o'clock that the whole family can sit down and have a meal happily.

Old Mrs. Shen felt sorry for her daughter and kept putting food into her bowl, "Chunling, eat more."

Shen Chunling hadn't eaten meat for more than a year. Her parents-in-law were in poor health, so any food that was tasty went into their mouths.

There wasn't much meat in these dishes left over from the wedding banquet at her parents' house, but they were still greasy. Shen Chunling was very satisfied with this dinner.

Zhang Cuicui also picked up some food for Shen Chunling, "Yes, Second Sister, eat more. There are still a lot of vegetables in the pot. As much as you can eat."

"Second sister, you finally came back, so don't go back tonight. Stay at home for a few more days."

"Second sister, please stay at home for a few more days." Liu Pandi didn't care anyway, as the food she ate at home was not her family's. Considering that she came back to get things, Liu Pandi was happy to say a few nice words.

Shen Chunling didn't know what her three sisters-in-law were thinking, but at least they seemed to welcome her, and that was enough.

"Then I'll stay at home tonight and go back tomorrow."

Shen Chunling hadn't been back to her parents' home for a long time and wanted to stay there for a while longer.

Old Lady Shen looked at her grandson and granddaughter and said, "Okay, then Yongjun, Yongjie, and Xiaofen should not go back and live with your mother at your grandmother's house."

Wu Yongjun, Wu Yongjie, and Wu Xiaofen at the next table hesitated for a moment and shook their heads.

"We won't live here anymore, grandma and grandpa need someone to stay with them. If mom doesn't come back, we have to go back to take care of them."

Old man Shen frowned, "Your grandparents are not so bad that they can't live without someone, right? Isn't your father at home? What does he do for a living?"

When Old Man Shen asked questions with a stern face, he was quite intimidating. The three siblings were so scared that they stammered and could not answer for a long time.

"Grandpa, my dad...is not available."

Shen Chunling hurried to explain, "Dad, my parents-in-law have been in worse health lately. They have trouble walking. Dawei is a grown man but he is careless and can't take good care of the elderly. It's safer for the three children to go back and take care of them together."

Old Man Shen glanced at his second daughter and said nothing.

After eating their fill, Wu Yongjun and his two siblings touched their round bellies, smacked their lips, said goodbye to Old Lady Shen and the others, and said they were going home.

After her son and daughter had eaten their fill, Shen Chunling told them, "When you go back, watch your step and don't eat too much."

Zhang Cuicui and Li Caixia still had some sincerity towards Shen Chunling. Seeing that she looked really bad, they couldn't help but say a few words of concern.

"Second sister, don't work too hard on weekdays. It's not worth it if you exhaust yourself."

Li Caixia felt that her aunt looked so bad because she must have been working day and night. "Second sister, your parents-in-law are not in good health. Are you taking care of them?"

Shen Chunling said with a smile, "My parents-in-law said that I was careful and thoughtful. My two sisters-in-law were clumsy, and the old couple didn't like to see them. My parents-in-law only let me take care of them, not my two sisters-in-law."

It is a bit tiring to take care of her parents-in-law, but her parents-in-law trust her and cherish her as their eldest daughter-in-law, so it is worth it.

The two sisters-in-law wanted to lend a hand, but their parents-in-law refused to take care of them.

Shen Qiu liked to listen to the elders' daily chats the most. After hearing what Shen Chunling said, she slapped her thigh and held her head.

"Second Aunt, those two old guys are clearly there for you to bully, and yet you're still standing here feeling smug."

Emma, ​​there is a second aunt who is a bit stupid and has a headache!

Shen Shuyu was so amused by her funny look that he touched Shen Qiu's head and stuffed a candy into her mouth.

The sweet and fragrant taste of sugar spread in his mouth, and Shen Qiu smiled with his eyes curved.

When Li Caixia's slap was about to land on her, she dodged.

"Lululu, you can't hit me, mother."

What a bastard!

Li Caixia wanted to say something, but seeing that her second aunt looked like she would get angry if anyone said anything about her in-laws, she shut up silently.

The girl said everything she wanted to say, and the second aunt looked at her to see whether she listened or not.

Shen Chunling didn't take her niece's words to heart, thinking that she was still young and ignorant.

"Mother, Cuicui, Caixia, don't think too much. My parents-in-law are always very nice to me."

Old Lady Shen asked with a dark face, "How are your parents-in-law treating you well?"

"They praise me for being a good daughter-in-law every day. They are afraid that I will get tired, so they tell me not to do too much work every day..."

"So they just say nice things, but didn't give you an egg or something?"

"I'm not a child, why should I eat eggs? My parents-in-law are in poor health, so the eggs are for them."

Old Lady Shen looked at her daughter with a look of disappointment, "I raised you with good food and drink, sent you to school, just to let you marry into the Wu family and be a nanny?

Xiaoqiu, a little girl, can tell with just one sentence that the two old men in the Wu family are deliberately torturing you, and you are still here speaking for them!

How come your two sisters-in-law are good at taking care of others? It's obvious that your parents-in-law are partial to your two sisters-in-law and can't bear to see them suffer.

You idiot, just because they say a few nice words to you, you open your heart to them.

If they were afraid that you would get tired, they would never let you do so much work.

Look in the mirror and see how bad your complexion is now."

Shen Qiu considerately put the mirror in front of Shen Chunling, "Second aunt, your face is as white as a ghost. You don't need to put on powder when you go out to scare people at night."

Shen Chunling doesn't have time to look in the mirror at home. She usually combs her hair by running it a few times with her hands and then tying a braid with a rubber band.

When she returned to her parents' home, her family members said that she looked bad. Shen Chunling didn't take it seriously, but now she is shocked by herself in the mirror.

The person in the mirror looked as pale as paper with sunken cheeks, which was very scary.

Shen Chunling even suspected that the mirror was broken!

Is this really me?

Old Lady Shen pushed the mirror forward and said, "Look at what you have been tortured into by Old Wu's family, and you foolishly think they are treating you well.

I am an old woman, and compared to you, people who don’t know me would think you are my mother.”

As Old Mrs. Shen spoke, tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She had raised her second daughter with great care, but the life she led after getting married was even worse than during the famine years. How could she not feel heartbroken?

Shen Chunling told her story bit by bit about her life at her husband's house.

Old Lady Shen and the others slapped their thighs together, "What kind of life are you living? The people in Old Wu's family don't even treat you as a human being."

Shen Qiu was a little excited, "Grandma, those bastards from the Old Wu family treated my second aunt like this,

Let's go and have a fight with them. Big sister and brother Jiandong are really powerful. Let big sister and brother Jiandong hold their collars and spin them around until they are dizzy. Then we will use shoe awls to poke them. "
