A short-tempered mom? A money-grubbing dad? A humorous trio of women were sent to the 1960s by a leaky electric kettle, bringing with them a kitchen that could infinitely replicate food and a space...
Whether the Zhao family was wealthy wasn't something Xingxing considered at all, nor was it something Jiang Huashu and his wife considered either. Families like theirs didn't look for a son-in-law based on his family background.
Of course, family was certainly a factor, but it wasn't the primary one, perhaps only around 40 or 20 percent. Professor Dong prioritized Zhao Youqian's character and his feelings for Xingxing. Because Zhao Youqian's feelings for Xingxing were truly pure and unwavering, the Jiang family agreed to let Xingxing marry him.
When this matter was first brought up, Mr. Jiang had actually considered the family situation Zhao Youqian had mentioned. Since it was his second daughter-in-law's family, he was quite familiar with the Zhao family. The current daughter-in-law in charge of the Zhao family, whose mother-in-law was still alive, was in charge of the family's daily arrangements, which was rare in Shanghai. Even if Mr. Jiang had thought of it, he would not have thought that the Zhao family's in-laws could actually have an affair with his daughter-in-law. He simply thought that his family had no rules and that the head of the family, Old Zhao, was indifferent and inactive.
But overall, the Zhao family was a good place. The children all had formal jobs, and Zhao Youqian was a soldier. After all, Mr. Jiang also came from the military, so he naturally had a preference for those who served there. Xingxing's personality was difficult for most people to control, and Mr. Jiang felt that it was a rare achievement for her to find a boy who truly loved her. Naturally, he agreed, but he didn't expect the Zhao family to have such an ulterior motive. In fact, it would be better to just ask for money directly. Xingxing would definitely help without hesitation.
The incident passed as Xingxing leisurely finished breakfast and returned to her room to catch up on some sleep. Even though the eldest sister-in-law was unwilling to accept it, her father-in-law would not let her bring it up again. Old man Zhao was still furious after being scolded by his youngest daughter-in-law that morning. He had never dreamed that he would be scolded by his new daughter-in-law, nor had he imagined that his affairs with his eldest daughter-in-law would be exposed to the whole family by her.
He was now completely humiliated. Not only were the wives of the second, third, and fourth sons now avoiding him, completely avoiding his gaze. What was he going to do in the future? Besides, he didn't know how to face the eldest son when he returned, and he hadn't figured out how to explain this to him. Besides Xingxing, the whole family was in a state of confusion, so no one cared about her going back to her room to sleep.
Xingxing returned to her room and went straight into her space. When Professor Dong first invited her to join, Shuishui had already added her to the list of space administrators on her computer. So this was her first time entering the space on her own. Unexpectedly, as soon as she thought, "I want to join the space," she was instantly in. It was truly hilarious.
After entering the space, Xingxing was in the middle of her new home's living room. She was still a bit taken with the new environment. After touring the rooms, she was most intrigued by the self-restocking kitchen. It didn't matter what she took; it would be automatically restocked in a matter of moments. How wonderful!
Xingxing picked up a perfectly ripe durian. It was ripe, her sister often gave it to her when she was little. She remembered it vividly: the first time she ate it, the stench was so strong she burst into tears before she even ate it. She thought her sister was going to feed her feces. She was very young at the time, maybe eight or nine, and she thought her sister didn't like her and was feeding her feces. She resisted eating it at first, but later, under her sister's coercion and inducement, she took a bite and didn't get poisoned. After eating it again, she gradually fell in love with the taste.
