When Mrs. Ye heard this, she couldn't help but make a bold guess: "Could it be that your mother-in-law is saving money to support her daughter?"

"That shouldn't be the case!" Lin Yumei said, "My brother-in-law is a scholar and opened a private school in another city. My eldest sister is the wife of a scholar after all.

“Although my sister-in-law’s in-laws’ family is not a wealthy one, my brother-in-law is a peddler and their family conditions are better than mine.

"Every time my sister-in-law comes to visit my mother-in-law, she brings lots of things with her. Shouldn't she use my mother-in-law's money to support her?"

After hearing what she said, Mrs. Ye San became a little unsure.

"No matter what, I think you'd better be careful," said Mrs. Ye. "Go back and ask your brother Wang if the old lady has ever asked him for money privately!"

After hearing what Mrs. Ye said, Lin Yumei felt a little unsure.

"Tell me what's going on!" Lin Yumei stamped her feet anxiously. "In a few days, when I go to one of our regular banquets, I'll ask my husband, Old Wang, to go to my sister-in-law's house and take a look. Maybe we can find some clues."

Mrs. Ye clapped her hands and said, "That's a good idea. You can trick them a bit when the time comes. Maybe you can actually get something out of them!"

"Who are you trying to trick?" Mrs. Ye walked in from outside and only heard the last sentence, "Please stop giving people bad advice."

"Sister-in-law, am I that kind of person?" Sister-in-law Ye San said, "I'm just trying to help Yumei find a solution!

"I think this matter is definitely not as simple as the old lady being stingy. It's just that Yumei is too honest and has never thought about it in other ways.

"Let's go to my sister-in-law's house, maybe the truth will come out."

Sister Ye had no choice but to persuade Lin Yumei, "Think carefully about it and don't listen to her.

"After all, we are all relatives. If we make a mistake, it will be so awkward to get along with each other in the future!"

"Mrs. You, don't worry, I definitely can't ask directly." Lin Yumei seemed to have made up her mind and said, "But what Third Sister-in-law said does make sense.

"My mother-in-law has been living with us for several years. I spend real money every month, but the child can't even eat an egg. I can't keep being taken advantage of, right?"
