"They're back?" Mother Xie was very surprised. She looked around but didn't see anyone, so she asked, "Where are they?"

"Sister-in-law said she was tired and was resting in the house."

Xie's mother's face immediately darkened. Sun Lanjun had been married for several years. Xie's mother knew Sun Lanjun better than Lin Xiangyi. She knew very well that Sun Lanjun just didn't want to work and that was why she made an excuse to go back to the room to rest.

As the eldest daughter-in-law, she was very proud and arrogant. She always looked down on their remote hometown and their poor and dilapidated home. She would not come back unless there was something wrong.

Even when she came back, she would hide in the room and wait for them to call her after dinner was ready.

If it were any other time, Xie's mother wouldn't have said anything.

It was a rare occasion for Sun Lanjun to bring Xiaoni back home, so for the sake of her granddaughter, she didn't bother with her so much.

Besides, arguing is too tiring, so it is better to do more by yourself. At most, you will be physically tired. When Sun Lanjun returns to the county town, she will be fine after taking more rest.

But now, she saw Lin Xiangyi busy in the kitchen with sweat on her forehead, while Sun Lanjun was resting leisurely in the house. The sharp contrast made Xie's mother furious.

Sun Lanjun was on summer vacation and didn't have to go to work, so why was she tired? If she was really tired, she would never come back given her personality.

She's back so she's back, and she's acting like they owe her something. Don't they deserve to serve her?

Mother Xie raised her foot and knocked on Sun Lanjun's door, saying loudly, "Old man, are you awake? If you are, come out and help with the work."

The beating was so loud that I would wake up even if I didn’t want to.
