Chapter 8: Marrying into the Gu family is a blessing

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yanli pushed the door open.

Gu Yanli had a dark face and stood at the door and called her, "Dinner is ready, come and eat!"

Wen Tang: "..."

Could it be that the other party heard what she just said?

Wen Tang wanted to ask, but Gu Yanli turned and left after he finished speaking.

Wen Tang could only follow obediently.

In the main hall of the Gu family, Father Gu, Father Lin, and mother-in-law Zhong Meixian were all seated, with chopsticks ready. There were already two dishes on the table, but the rice had not yet been fully served.

Wen Tang ran to the kitchen obediently.

She doesn't know how to cook on a wood stove, but she can help serve meals.

After all, she is also a person who has to open her mouth to eat. She can't always expect others to serve her. That doesn't make sense.

When Wen Tang arrived at the kitchen door, he happened to meet Gu Yanli who was carrying food out of the kitchen.

When Gu Yanli saw her, he asked, "Why are you in the kitchen?"

"Serve the food."

"No, go sit in the main room!"

"Now that we're here," Wen Tang pointed to the kitchen behind him and slipped in.

Gu Yanli waited at the kitchen door.

When Lin Jingshen saw Wen Tang in the kitchen, he immediately turned off the fire in the stove and ran out.

He could not forget the days when he was chased and blocked by Wen Tang.

"Uncle, I'll go call my mother to come for dinner." He said as he passed by Gu Yanli.

Wen Tang originally wanted to follow Gu Yanli's example and serve three bowls of rice.

However, it turned out that she found two bowls too hot, let alone three.

Wen Tang was embarrassed when he brought out a bowl of rice. He pinched the edge of the bowl with his fingertips and blushed. “It’s too hot.”

Gu Yanli wanted to laugh, but was afraid that Wen Tang would get angry, so he said, "I didn't ask you to serve it."

Wen Tang curled his lips and said, "Blame me for being sentimental."

Gu Yanli followed her and said, "That's not what I meant."

"I'm on vacation at home, you just need to rest." He added.

Wen Tang then slowed down his pace and asked, "Won't people say I'm lazy?"

"I don't live my life with them," said Gu Yanli.

Wen Tang freed up one hand to give Gu Yanli a thumbs up. She wanted to say that she really liked what the little brother said and asked him to remember to close the door at night.

Lin Jingshen ran back to his yard, and Chi Yue just came out of the house.

Gu Jinfeng was sitting in her yard.

Chi Yue was just about to say hello when she saw her puppy running back from next door.

Seeing Chi Yue, Lin Jingshen blushed slightly, "Xiao Yue, the meal is ready, go eat next door first!"

Then he called out to his mother, "Mom, it's time to eat. Why are you still mad at grandma?"

When asked, Gu Jinfeng began to pour out her grievances, "I am angry with her, how can I not be angry with her?"

"Does she ever talk like that?"

"Then your uncle is her biological son, and you are not her biological grandson?"

"I know she's biased, but are you an outsider?"

"She's going to say that?"

Lin Jingshen didn't know exactly why the two had the conflict, but Lin Jingshen knew one thing, that is, his family lived close to his grandmother's family, and they had eaten together over the years, so quarrels like this between his mother and his grandmother and their daughter happened frequently.

Anyway, their anger would only last one night at most. The next day, they would just go and play crickets with others together, and they would still be mother and daughter.

So Lin Jingshen didn't go to find out the details, and just advised, "My grandma is just like that, she doesn't mean any harm."

"After all, you are her own daughter. Even if she has bad intentions, she can't do anything to you, right?"

"Come on, go eat, grandma is waiting for you!"

When Lin Jingshen said, "Grandma is still waiting," Gu Jinfeng became a little restless.

After all, Zhong Meixian is her biological mother and she is the child. How could it be reasonable for her to sit here and wait for her biological mother?

So even though Gu Jinfeng was angry, she still stood up and said, "Hmph, don't expect me to pay attention to her."

Lin Jingshen just smiled and said nothing.

Then he waited for Chi Yue to go next door together.

Chi Yue followed Lin Jingshen and asked, "Did mom and grandma have a fight?"

Lin Jingshen nodded.

"Why?"

"It seems to be because of you and your aunt."

"I..." Chi Yue thought about the time when she and Wen Tang compared who had a better life.

Chi Yue: Ah, so they were the ones who instigated it!

Well, the mother-daughter relationship is a little plastic.

Chi Yue wanted to laugh, but didn't dare.

Because it’s time to eat.

At the dinner table, Zhong Meixian and Gu Jinfeng, mother and daughter, ignored each other and were both sulking.

Wen Tang looked curious but didn't ask.

Because Chi Yue winked at her, indicating that he knew the inside story.

Wen Tang suppressed her curiosity and waited until after dinner to chat about gossip with her bestie.

After dinner, Wen Tang had to wash the dishes.

Chi Yue immediately reached out her hand as well, "Humph, you're the only diligent person."

Wen Tang made a face and said, "Lululu, I am just more diligent than you."

Then the two of them cleaned up one by one, carrying the bowls and plates to the kitchen, bickering along the way.

Gu Yanli originally wanted to say that he would wash the dishes himself.

But Wen Tang warned him seriously, "Don't worry about it."

Looking at the invisible smoke of war between the two women, Gu Yanli chose to keep his mouth shut.

The daughter-in-law went to wash the dishes. Gu Jinfeng felt that her back was straightened. "Our Jing Shen is lucky to marry a hardworking daughter-in-law."

Zhong Meixian glanced at her, then said to Gu Yanli, "You made the right choice in marrying a daughter-in-law. She is a hardworking person. Mom likes her very much. You just wait."

The old lady said this and ran back to her room.

He came back after a while with a piece of red cloth in his hand.

In front of Gu Jinfeng, she opened it and showed it to Gu Yanli, "This is a pair of silver bracelets that Mom brought as a dowry. Mom didn't want to give them to anyone else, so I'm giving them to your wife."

"Go call your wife."

In the kitchen, Wen Tang and Chi Yue finally got together. Without the wall between them, they immediately started whispering to each other. "Tell me, tell me, what's going on?" Wen Tang asked.

"This is a long story, just listen to me and make it short," and then Chi Yue told the story of how Gu Jinfeng and Zhong Meixian's mother and daughter's relationship seemed to have broken down because of a few words from them.

After hearing this, Wen Tang couldn't help but exclaimed, "No way, is this true?"

"Are these two mothers-in-law so funny?"

"Then after that..."

What happened next? Before Wen Tang could say anything, Gu Yanli's voice rang out at the kitchen door, "Wen Tang, come out for a moment."

Wen Tang stopped talking, wiped his hands and said, "Here I come."

"What's wrong?" Wen Tang walked to the kitchen door and asked obediently.

"Mom has something for you."

"Oh, okay."

Before leaving the kitchen, Wen Tang did not forget to put on a good show, "Wash yourself, my mother-in-law is calling me."

Chi Yue hurriedly wiped her hands, "If you don't wash, I won't wash either."

They both felt that it would be lively now.

Sure enough, when they arrived at the main hall, Zhong Meixian proudly handed a pair of silver bracelets wrapped in red cloth to Wen Tang who had just entered the room. "Daughter-in-law, come here, take them. These are the silver bracelets I brought as a dowry. Now that you are Yan Li's daughter-in-law, I pass them on to you."

Wen Tang took it with surprise and praised without reservation, "Wow, Mom, you are so nice. You are simply the best mother-in-law in the world. I have fallen into a blessed nest by marrying into your Gu family."

Zhong Meixian's slightly bent waist straightened up now.

He looked at his daughter with particular pride.

Look, she said that it was her luck to marry into the Gu family, but she still refuses to admit it.
