She also ate very uncomfortablely and unhappily.

She smiled at Tang Yaoyao again and said in a friendly manner, "Yaoyao, your aunt is doing this for your own good. Being a daughter-in-law is different from being a child. You will have a lot to learn when you are with Xiao Jinhan in the future. I hope you don't mind. I am also teaching you."

Tang Yaoyao smiled back: "I don't mind, but the niece-in-law that Auntie mentioned must have a very hard life. She has to worry about the whole family's livelihood all day long, raising children, being a good wife and mother, and she doesn't have any personal space of her own. She'll probably be a haggard old woman by the time she's thirty. Auntie doesn't seem to live that kind of life either, so why would she want me to learn from her?"

"Mom, you look so young, healthy, and happy. It's all thanks to Dad taking such good care of you. He's never let you suffer even a little bit. I envy the relationship between you and Dad." Tang Yaoyao's tone was soft and sweet, sounding like she was being coquettish, which made Madam Xiao's heart melt.

Madam Xiao agreed with Tang Yaoyao's point of view and patted her hand: "Of course, now that you've married into the Xiao family, how could I let you suffer like that? Even if I were willing, Han'er wouldn't be. I'm not that kind of wicked mother-in-law."

This was also a message to Xiao Qianwen: don't be so formal.

The Xiao family doesn't need it at all.

As long as they are happy and content, that's all that matters.

"Then I was just being nosy. I won't say anything more." Xiao Qianwen wisely stopped discussing the matter.

Xiao Jinhan asked, "Aunt, what brings you back to stay?"

He just felt that Tang Yaoyao came back, and Xiao Qianwen came back right after. He had never seen her so diligent before.

Some doubts are inevitable.

When asked the crucial question, Xiao Qianwen paused for a moment. Naturally, she wouldn't tell the truth, and politely replied, "It's because they knew you were coming back and wanted to come see you, see their new daughter-in-law, and your parents."

“I’ve never seen you run this enthusiastically before, so I found it strange,” Xiao Jinhan replied casually.

Xiao Qianwen said, "What's wrong? Does Auntie have to pick an auspicious day to go back to her parents' home?"

Xiao Jinhan raised an eyebrow and said naturally, "Your family isn't here; you're just a relative at most."

There are some differences between a biological aunt and a distant aunt.

It also implies that Tang Yaoyao's presence in the family makes them closer than her own.

Stop talking so much nonsense.

Xiao Qianwen was choked up again; no matter how she listened, it felt nauseous.

How come she's become an outsider now that the new bride has arrived?

It wasn't like this before.

The fact that Xiao Zhenqiao and his wife remained silent made Xiao Qianwen lose face.

It was as if they all agreed with Xiao Jinhan's words.

Xiao Qianwen was a sensible person; they didn't like her meddling, so she kept quiet.

"It's because Auntie talks too much, Yaoyao, don't be angry. Auntie won't say these things again."

Madam Xiao didn't want things to get too tense, so she tried to smooth things over by not bringing it up again: "Alright, it's no big deal. Han'er, help your wife pick out more food and learn from your father."

These words made Xiao Zhenqiao very happy.

To have one's son learn from him is to acknowledge that he is a good husband.

Xiao Zhenqiao wasn't as stern with Tang Yaoyao, and said calmly, "Yaoyao, make yourself at home."

Although his tone was indifferent and he spoke little, he had already acknowledged Tang Yaoyao.

"Okay, Dad."

This was something Xiao Qianwen hadn't expected.

Her presence actually improved their relationship.

Xiao Qianwen was not convinced by this. Why should an outsider be able to take her place in the Xiao family?

But the superficial work still needs to be done well.
