Chapter 464 What? I have to report to you when I come to see my son?
Zhou's father and mother acted quickly and bought tickets and boarded the train the next day.
Shen Xue waited and waited but the money sent by her parents-in-law didn't come. Instead, she got her parents-in-law. They showed up at the Shenjiaba Brigade. Shen Xue even suspected that she was seeing things.
"Mom and Dad? Why are you here?"
What she wants is money, not her parents-in-law. If they don't send the money, why would they send themselves here?
How could the parents-in-law have so little sense that they even come here to interfere with their son and daughter-in-law's lives?
Wang Fanghong saw that her daughter-in-law couldn't smile at all, "Why, I have to report to you when I come to see my son?"
"Mom, look at what you said. I mean you should tell me so I can pick you up."
As she was talking, Shen Xue kept looking at the luggage bags in her parents-in-law's hands. She didn't know if they were sensible or not.
If she didn't know to bring anything when she came to see her son, she wouldn't be in the mood to cook tonight.
"I'm tired, where is your home?" I haven't taken a train for a long time.
Wang Fanghong really couldn't stand it anymore and now just wanted to have a good sleep.
"Mom and Dad, come with me." Shen Xue reached out and took the bag from her parents-in-law, and weighed what was inside.
When Zhou's father saw her actions, he knew what she was doing with just his toes. Such a person was not worthy of entering their Zhou family.
It was filled with clothes. Shen Xue weighed it and it felt so light that her face instantly fell.
I secretly cursed my parents-in-law for being ignorant. They were country folk who knew to bring two kohlrabi when they came to visit.
My parents-in-law are cadres and they don’t know how to behave at all.
The Zhou family couple went to the countryside and specially found the clothes they had kept in the bottom of their closet to wear.
They all ask old tailors to make their clothes. Old tailors have good skills.
The clothes they make are incomparable to those made by the tailors here.
The difference was obvious just by the clothes they wore. When the villagers from Shenjiaba Brigade saw them, they came forward and asked, "Shen Xue girl, who are they?"
No matter how ignorant my parents-in-law are, they are from Kyoto. It is very prestigious to say, "These are my parents-in-law. They are worried that we are not living well in the countryside, so they came to see us."
"Really? Your parents-in-law are really good to you. Big brother and big sister just arrived, have you eaten? If not, come to my house and have a bite."
Third Aunt greeted Zhou's father and mother with a smile.
Wang Fanghong saw that the person in front of her was obviously older than her, but she still called her "big sister". Was she trying to make herself look younger? It really made her look younger.
But they were respectable people, and they couldn't be impolite since they were greeted by someone. "Thank you, but no thanks. We'll go home and eat with Shen Xue."
Wang Fanghong took out a handful of candy from her pocket and gave it to the third aunt, who smiled from ear to ear. "Big sister, you are so polite. Come to our house when you have time."
Wang Fanghong forced a smile and said, "Okay."
Shen Xue led her parents-in-law all the way home, "Mom and Dad, we're home."
In Zhou's father's impression, courtyards in the countryside are very large, but the courtyard in front of him is small and messy.
There was chicken shit everywhere, and he didn't know how to step in.
Not to mention Wang Fanghong, she was disgusted to death.
"The house is so messy, why don't you clean it up?"
Shen Xue didn't feel embarrassed at all, "Mom and Dad, you know,
We lived a hard life in the countryside, often going hungry, and I had to take care of the children.
I have to take care of Jingchen and go to work. I wish I could split myself in half. How can I have the time to clean the house?
Now that my parents are here, they can help me share some of the housework.
People always envy me for having good in-laws. Look, I am afraid I can't handle it myself.
My parents even came over to help. Mom and Dad, it’s great to have you.”
Wang Fanghong...
Wang Fanghong looked as if she had heard some nonsense, her expression was indescribable.
What nonsense are you talking about? We are here to see our son, how could we help you with the housework?
As a daughter-in-law, you don't think about being filial to your parents-in-law, but instead want them to help you with work. There's something wrong with your brain.
Okay, pour us two bowls of water and make us something delicious, we are hungry."
The couple had no appetite on the train and didn’t eat much. After getting off the train and getting some fresh air, they felt very hungry.
Shen Xue didn't say anything, poured two bowls of water, and then went to the kitchen.
Seeing that she was so sensible, Wang Fanghong snorted coldly.
In less than three minutes, Shen Xue came out with a big bowl. "Mom and Dad, it's time to eat. You all know.
We live a hard life in the countryside, and we don’t have the luxury of eating fish and meat, so you guys just have to make do with this meal.”
Shen Xue served the wild vegetable soup. She had worked hard to dig up the wild vegetables. She was reluctant to put too much in, so she only put in a handful.
After cooking for too long, the leaves turned yellow and floated in the clear water. She was reluctant to add salt.
The wild vegetables were bitter, and after Zhou's father took a sip, his face turned grim.
Wang Fanghong saw her husband's face and thought Shen Xue had poisoned him. "Shen Xue, what did you put in there? Why does your father look so unhappy?"
Shen Xue rolled her eyes. "This wild vegetable is bitter. Dad is not used to it. It's normal for him to have a frown on his face."
It took Zhou's father a long time to regain his composure. "I'm fine."
He knew that some wild vegetables were bitter, but he didn't expect that Shen Xue didn't even add oil or salt. If she added oil or salt, the wild vegetable soup wouldn't be so unpalatable.
"Shen Xue, what do you mean? We came all the way here and you're just giving us this to eat?"
"Oh my god, just be content with wild vegetable soup, like my grandmother's generation,
In years of famine, having wild vegetables to eat was a luxury. How can you still complain about them now?
Jingchen, my two children and I eat this wild vegetable every day. They all enjoy it very much.
How come wild vegetables are like dog shit when they come to you? You despise them so much."
She was considered a good daughter-in-law because she could make wild vegetable soup. When she went to Kyoto, the entire Zhou family didn't even give her a glass of water, nor did they intend to cook for her.
If it weren't for Shen Xue's toughness, she might have been bullied by them. In Kyoto, Shen Xue couldn't stand being bullied.
There is no reason why I could be controlled by them just because they came to Shenjiaba Brigade.
"Shen Xue, you are not filial to your parents-in-law. How did your parents teach you? I will have to talk to them later."
She knew that Shen Xue's parents lived in Shenjiaba Brigade, and her in-laws came to say that their daughter was not decent.
If you are disrespectful to your parents-in-law and talk back to them, you will see how they can put their faces.
"Mom, you may not believe this, but my parents went to hell to save me.
If you want to argue with my parents, you have to be prepared to dig a hole and go down to talk to my parents."
Wang Fanghong: “…”
Wang Fanghong was stunned. Jing Chen didn't tell them about this. He said at the time that his mother's family was all there.
Father Zhou was silent. "Okay, we are here to see Jing Chen. Shen Xue is his wife after all. You should say less."
