In her previous life, Zhao Zhenzhu's military officer husband made a mistake, died, and brought shame to their entire family.
To atone for her husband's sins, Zhao Zhenzhu did the hea...
Among the grandchildren, Ding Ermei likes Zhou Jiaxiang from the second family the most because Zhou Jiaxiang looks like Ding Ermei's eldest brother from her mother's family, that is, Ding Xiaocui's father.
When Ding Ermei heard Ding Xiaocui mention Zhou Jiaxiang, the strength of the knocking in her hands weakened.
However, his voice became louder: "I am an old man, and I still have to get up early to serve the family. Isn't it okay for me to be unhappy and get angry?"
Ding Ermei was very angry.
In the past, as long as Ding Ermei did some knocking and hammering, Zhao Zhenzhu would take the initiative to do the work without waiting for her to scold.
Today, Ding Ermei's throat was almost smoking from scolding, but there was no movement from the third room.
"Isn't it my third brother's wife's turn to cook today? Where is she?" Ding Xiaocui knew her mother-in-law's concern and asked deliberately.
"That lazy Zhao Zhenzhu is still lying in bed! She just got caught in the rain yesterday, but she has a headache and feels uncomfortable. She is really a lady with a maid's life." Ding Ermei said unhappily, "It is only because our family conditions have improved in recent years that we can tolerate the spoiled behavior of you daughters-in-law. When I was young, my family had nothing. I went to the fields to harvest rice even though I was seven months pregnant!"
"Yes, yes, we young people are a little pampered and can't be as hardworking as you older generations. Mom, you go back to your room and rest first. I'll go see if my third sister-in-law is feeling better and ask her to get up and cook. I cooked yesterday, and it's her turn today." Ding Xiaocui knew what Ding Ermei wanted, so she quickly picked out what Ding Ermei liked.
"Okay, then I'll go lie down on the bed for a while. Ouch, my old waist! It hurts so much when I wake up in the morning." Ding Ermei finally calmed down.
Zhao Zhenzhu lay on the bed, listening to the "farce" outside, her heart calm.
Master Yiye said that she was the original owner. In fact, Zhao Zhenzhu knew that there were differences between herself and the original owner.
At least, Zhao Zhenzhu will never be PUA'd by the Zhou family.
Ding Ermei is a PUA master. She likes to say: A daughter-in-law should be virtuous, hardworking, filial to her parents-in-law, and willing to work hard...
The original owner believed it and treated Ding Ermei better than her own mother. If there was something delicious, she would give it to Ding Ermei even if she didn't eat it herself.
What was the result? In Ding Ermei's heart, the original owner was nothing.
And that guy Zhou Bingchen actually cheated on her. Does he deserve the clothes he's wearing?
Why would she come here for a man like this?
No, she didn't want to stay in the Zhou family's muddy pond. She wanted to take the children back to her parents' home to live for a while, and then find an opportunity to divorce Zhou Bingchen.
It seems that the incident of corruption involving my younger brother Zhao Tianyu in my previous life happened at the end of this year.
There are still three months left.
Zhao Zhenzhu didn't believe Zhao Tianyu would commit corruption. The Zhao family had no shortage of money, and Zhao Tianyu had no motive to commit the crime.
Zhao Zhenzhu felt that Zhao Tianyu must have been plotted against.
This time, Zhao Zhenzhu will help Zhao Tianyu avoid this disaster.
If nothing had happened to Zhao Tianyu, Zhao Qingshan and his wife would not have died from the shock.
After a few years when the policy changes and business becomes possible, she will bring her family to make a lot of money together...
Zhao Zhenzhu was secretly calculating in her heart.
At this moment, a knock on the door interrupted Zhao Zhenzhu's thoughts.
"Third sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, are you awake?" Ding Xiaocui asked while knocking on the door.
Zhao Zhenzhu said nothing.
Ding Xiaocui is very hypocritical. She always says one thing in front of others and another behind their backs. Zhao Zhenzhu doesn't want to pay attention to her.
Just now, Ding Xiaocui and Ding Ermei sang in unison and deliberately raised their voices to say that it was Zhao Zhenzhu's turn to cook today, just to force Zhao Zhenzhu to "take the initiative" to go to the kitchen to work.
In her previous life, Zhao Zhenzhu was shy and dragged her sick body to the kitchen to cook without waiting for Ding Xiaocui to knock on the door.
After the meal was ready, Zhao Zhenzhu was so tired that she broke out in a cold sweat and had no appetite at all. She went back to her room and lay down for most of the day before she felt a little better.
This time, Zhao Zhenzhu would not do that.
What does face mean in front of the Zhou family’s bunch of “jackals, tigers and leopards”?
What if she doesn't cook today?
Before she married into the Zhou family, she had never seen anyone in the Zhou family starve to death!
"Third sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, please wake up! Mom just twisted her waist in the kitchen and now she's lying in bed in so much pain that she can't get up!" The knocking on the door continued, and Ding Xiaocui lied with her eyes open.
Zhao Zhenzhu still ignored her.
However, Zhao Zhenzhu could pretend to be deaf, but Zhou Yunyun was woken up.
"Mom~!" Zhou Yunyun rubbed her eyes and called out in a soft voice.
"If you're sleepy, just sleep a little longer." Zhao Zhenzhu patted Zhou Yunyun's chest gently and said softly.
"Mom, I don't want to sleep anymore. I'm awake and I'll get up to help you with things." Zhou Yunyun tried hard to open her eyes wide.
Her mother once said that good children should not sleep in, so she wanted to be a good child. When her mother cooked, she would help her mother light the fire.
"Close your eyes and sleep for a while, be good." Zhao Zhenzhu said in an unquestionable tone.
"Oh." Zhou Yunyun has always been obedient. Although she didn't understand why Zhao Zhenzhu wanted her to continue sleeping, she still closed her eyes obediently and even unconsciously slowed down her breathing.
Ding Xiaocui knocked on the door and listened attentively.
Zhao Zhenzhu and her daughter spoke quietly, but Ding Xiaocui heard it.
Ding Xiaocui was annoyed.
"Zhao Zhenzhu, open the door quickly. It's your turn to make breakfast today. Don't even think about hiding in the house and being lazy." Ding Xiaocui said viciously.
As Ding Xiaocui finished her words, the door creaked open, revealing Zhao Zhenzhu's expressionless face.
Ding Xiaocui's hand that was knocking on the door stopped in mid-air.
Zhao Zhenzhu has never been a talkative person. Today, she had a stern face and was silent, which made Ding Xiaocui feel scared.
"Third... Third sister-in-law, Mom asked you to make breakfast." Ding Xiaocui said with a wry smile.
"Second sister-in-law, didn't you say yesterday afternoon that I would help you pick vegetables from the fields? Will you cook today's meal?" Zhao Zhenzhu glanced at Ding Xiaocui and said coldly.
"Ah?" Ding Xiaocui was stunned.
"Sister-in-law, you didn't forget it, did you?" Zhao Zhenzhu pointed to the front yard and said, "You said it while standing under the eaves over there. If you have a bad memory, stand over there and recall it carefully. I haven't recovered from my cold yet, and I need to rest more, so I won't accompany you to recall my memory."
After Zhao Zhenzhu finished speaking, she closed the door and bolted it without waiting for Ding Xiaocui to speak.
Ding Xiaocui stood at the door, her face turning red and white.
Of course Ding Xiaocui did not forget what Zhao Zhenzhu said.
However, she just said that to shut her sister-in-law up!
This kind of thing has happened before, and Zhao Zhenzhu had always just let it go in the past. Why is she taking it so seriously today?
Ding Xiaocui was a little confused.
Zhao Zhenzhu didn't care what Ding Xiaocui thought. Anyway, today's cooking job was Ding Xiaocui's.
Yesterday afternoon, it was drizzling, and Ding Ermei asked Ding Xiaocui to go to the vegetable field by the river to pick a basket of vegetables.
Ding Xiaocui was too lazy to go, so she lied to Zhao Zhenzhu and said she had her period and asked Zhao Zhenzhu to help her pick some vegetables.
