Mu Qing, hounded by marriage pressure to the point of not daring to return home, rented her elder brother's classmate, Ye Junbo, to pretend to be her husband, all for the sake of a peaceful lif...
After breakfast, Susu picked up the apron, wanted to tie it on again, and then clean up the dishes.
"Susu."
Shen Yimo stopped her daughter-in-law from doing housework. She said, "You forgot what Lan Zheng was angry about just now. Don't do it. I'll ask your dad to call a bodyguard to come in and clean up the table."
Susu smiled and said, "Mom, it's just washing dishes. It's not tiring."
"Don't do it even if you're not tired. Lan Zheng and your grandmother both said that you are the wife of the young master of our Lan family. You should live a life of luxury and not do this kind of housework."
As Shen Yimo spoke, she ordered her husband: "What are you still doing sitting here? Send someone in to clean up the table. Don't tire Susu out."
Then she took Susu out of the restaurant.
old lady:"……"
She said that on purpose, not sincerely.
However, her daughter-in-law took her words as an order and really didn't let Xu Susu do anything.
"Washing dishes isn't difficult, and it won't make you tired. My sister-in-law is just being pretentious."
Lan Min suddenly said something.
As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady knew something bad was going to happen. Sure enough, Lan Rui said, "Min'er, since you said washing the dishes is easy and won't make you tired, then you should put away the dishes and go into the kitchen to wash them. There are only three days left before the Chinese New Year. After the Chinese New Year, you will be eleven years old and a big kid. It's time for you to do some housework within your ability."
"You've always been sensible, so you shouldn't be pretentious."
Lan Min instinctively said, "Uncle, I'm the third daughter of the Lan family. I'm a rich lady, and there are plenty of people at home to serve me. How can you let me do this kind of work?"
Lan Rui said with a stern face, "Your sister-in-law is the wife of the young master of the Lan family. Isn't her status and position more noble than yours? When she's at home, doesn't she have anyone to serve her? Today, she got up early and prepared breakfast for so many of us by herself. Is this the job she should do?"
Lan Min pouted.
"Min'er is still a child."
The old lady protected her little granddaughter.
"Mom, when we were little, we had a lot of nannies at home, but you also asked us to learn to take care of ourselves and do things within our ability. Amin is already eleven years old and has never even washed a dish. How will she take care of herself in the future?"
"When she grows up, she will get married. Marrying into someone else's family as a daughter-in-law won't be as comfortable as being a rich girl at home. She must learn how to do things."
The old lady looked unhappy.
Seeing that the mother and son were about to argue again, the old man tried to smooth things over and said, "Send a bodyguard in to clean up the mess."
"Let Lan Min clean up. She said it was easy and not tiring. She also said her sister-in-law was being pretentious if she didn't clean up. We have to let her try it herself. Let's see if she still calls Susu pretentious in the future."
Lan Rui doesn't give his father face.
Ever since the third brother and his family were arrested, this little niece has hated their whole family.
After being provoked once or twice, he didn't want to bother with it because the other party was still a child.
As a result, the little girl thought they were guilty.
Relying on the protection of his elderly parents, he became more and more excessive.
"Amin, start cleaning up now. Don't leave the kitchen until you've cleaned these dishes. After you're done, I'll have to check to make sure you've done it thoroughly and didn't make the kitchen floor wet. Otherwise, you'll have to wash dishes for the whole day!"
Lan Rui took out his cell phone and called a bodyguard, asking him to come in.
After the bodyguard came in, he instructed the bodyguard: "A Fei, you just stay here and watch Miss Lan Min wash all the dishes. Come out of the kitchen when she finishes."
"No one is allowed to help her or speak for her!"
Lan Rui deliberately glanced at his parents, and without paying any attention to their expressions, he stood up and walked out of the restaurant.
"grandmother……"
Lan Min waited until her uncle left before she called out to her grandma with red eyes.
She couldn't help but speak rudely when she saw her aunt protecting Xu Susu and not letting her do anything.
Grandma had told her to be more respectful to Xu Susu.
No matter whether my cousin loves Xu Susu or not, since she has married into the Lan family, she is the wife of the young master. Disrespecting Xu Susu is disrespecting Lan Zheng, the young master.
Lan Min regretted talking too much and saying that.
She never thought that her uncle would get angry at her for saying this.
The old lady looked at her granddaughter in silence. She understood the deep meaning in her eldest son's words.
Lan Min's parents and eldest brother are all in prison. It is very likely that her parents will never be able to get out for the rest of their lives. Only her second brother is with her. People are very realistic. Lan Min used to be the third daughter of the Lan family, and everyone looked up to her.
Children her age would play with her.
Now, I guess children of the same age would be asked by their parents to stay away from Lan Min. And when Lan Min grows up, it would probably be difficult for her to marry into a good family because people would look down on her.
Unless she is married far away, out of the Lan family's sphere of influence.
No matter what, Lan Min has to learn to take care of herself.
The old lady thought about the couple's age. They wanted to live to be 120 years old, but they could not guarantee that they could live to be 120 years old. Maybe they would pass away in two years. Who would protect Lan Min then?
If we don't erase Lan Min's arrogance now and prevent her from bowing to reality, we will harm her in the future.
"Just do whatever your uncle tells you to do. From now on, think before you speak, don't just say whatever comes to mind."
As the old lady spoke, she forced herself to harden her heart, not looking at her granddaughter's aggrieved look, and stood up and left.
The old patriarch looked at his little granddaughter who had begun to cry, and said with a look of dismay, "Everything Grandpa said to you went in one ear and out the other. How can you blame your sister-in-law? Hurry up, clear the table and wash the dishes!"
He also walked out of the restaurant.
Seeing that even her grandparents didn't help her, and her uncle's men were staring at her coldly, Lan Min was scared and didn't dare to make a fuss. She cleared the table while crying and carried the bowls and dishes into the kitchen.
She has never washed dishes.
When her parents were around, she just had to sit back and relax and be happy.
Her parents were arrested by the police, but because her grandparents and second brother were there, she continued to live the life of a rich lady. Although the nanny was not as kind and patient with her as before, she still didn't have to do any work.
Now, she is asked to work like a nanny.
Lan Min felt so wronged.
I feel even more resentment towards my uncle.
But she was too young to resist her uncle. Her second brother said that he couldn't even resist his uncle and eldest cousin.
She thought that with her grandparents protecting her, even if she couldn't rescue her parents, she could at least make things difficult for her uncle on their behalf and make him angry to death.
No matter how Lan Min thought about it, she felt wronged, but Lan Rui didn't care. He left the restaurant and sat down on the sofa in the hall.
Chen Yimo and Xu Susu, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, had finished their meal and were watching TV leisurely.
