Zhou Xiang, who had returned to the Lings' home, didn't know any of this. She brought her teacher to the Lings' home, much to the delight of Ling Quan and Dong Yunrong. "That's great! Professor Chu can come to our home to celebrate the New Year. It's truly a great honor!"

The couple sincerely welcomed this gentle professor who was dedicated to protecting and supporting their daughter-in-law.

They were all acquaintances, so Professor Chu didn't bother to be polite with them. "Anyway, I listen to my student. Wherever she takes me to celebrate the New Year, I'll go there."

"That's great!" Zhou Xiang said with a smile, "Will you come with me to visit relatives during the first month of the lunar year?"

"That won't do," Professor Chu refused immediately. "I'm not a child. Besides, going with you would only cause trouble for others and make them feel uncomfortable. You go with your relatives, and I'll stay at the Ling family. I'm familiar with your in-laws and won't make anyone uncomfortable."

"Right, right, right," Ling Quan and Dong Yunrong echoed, "Just stay at our house. Don't worry about them visiting relatives."

After having dinner at the Ling family, Professor Chu and Xiao Qian took a walk and went back to rest. Dong Yunrong then pulled her daughter-in-law aside and asked her what had happened.

"Blame me," Zhou Xiang sighed, "I used money to corrupt people's hearts. My second sister is now more arrogant than anyone else. I couldn't bear to see my teacher suffer with me, so I dragged him to our house to celebrate the New Year. Mom, come to my place to celebrate the New Year next year! The teacher has been with me for so many years, and every New Year, I put him wherever he wants. I am his root. If I am not stable, he will drift away."

"Okay, okay!" Dong Yunrong agreed immediately. "Starting next year, we'll all go to your place for the New Year. Your father and I rely on you for our retirement, and your teacher also relies on you for his retirement. It would be more proper for us all to go to your place, and only then would we feel at ease and at peace."

Dong Yunrong doesn't care how the Zhou family will celebrate the New Year next year. As long as her daughter-in-law is willing to celebrate the New Year with them, it doesn't matter where.

"Thank you, Mom!" Zhou Xiang held her mother-in-law's arm. "Mom is the best mother-in-law in the world."

Dong Yunrong reached out and pinched her daughter-in-law's nose. "Don't feed me honey. Be careful that I will be corrupted by your sugar-coated bullets."

Zhou Xiang grinned foolishly.

Ling Xiaotong looked up at the two female elders in her family and said, "Mom, you let something slip."

"Where did I let it slip?" Zhou Xiang looked down at his daughter.

Ling Xiaotong's expression was very serious. "Mom, when you praise grandma, you can't just praise her as the best mother-in-law."

"Then what do you think we should praise grandma for being the best?" Zhou Xiang continued her daughter's words and asked. Don't think she didn't see the cunning flashing in her daughter's eyes.

Ling Xiaotong turned to look at her father and said with a smile, "You forgot Dad. You should praise Grandma as the best mother-in-law and mother. In short, the best mother-in-law and mother-in-law, hahahaha."

After saying that, she quickly ran to her grandfather's arms, afraid that her mother would spank her little butt.

Ling Quan quickly hugged his granddaughter in his arms, coaxing her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid."

Everyone was amused by her, and the slight heaviness they felt disappeared.

At the Zhou family, Zhou Yu had a quarrel with Zhu Hang when she heard that Zhu Hang wanted to move back. Zhu Hang just looked at her coldly and let her complain all the time.

Seeing her husband ignore her, Zhou Yu became even angrier. She actually reached out to scratch his face, but Zhu Hang grabbed her hand and folded it behind her back. "Have you had enough of this? If you don't want to continue like this, just say so. You can spank the child whenever you want, and you can give your parents-in-law the cold shoulder whenever you want. Now you want to hit me. Who else do you think you can do?"

"Are you tired of me? Are you looking for someone younger?"

"That's unreasonable!" Zhu Hang pushed her away and walked to the bedside table to search.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Yu hurried over to stop him.

Zhu Hang pushed her away and said, "I want to take control of all the money in the family so that you don't think you own the whole world and look down on everyone."

Zhou Yu, who was pushed to the ground, was shocked when he heard this. "Zhu Hang, what do you mean?"

Zhu Hang grabbed all the passbooks and bank cards in the house, turned around and looked down at her, "I mean, I want you to lose all this money and become the simple woman who always had a smile on her face and could see anyone in her eyes just to sell a piece of clothing."

Zhu Hang's words made Zhou Yu's ears echo with his sister's words: "Are you still the same person as before?"

Back then? He had asked his sister "back then," and his sister had also replied "back then." Now Zhu Hang wanted to return to the person he was back then.

What was it like back then?

Zhu Hang bent down and said to his dazed wife: "Ayu, the hardest thing to keep is the original intention, the most unforgettable thing is the first meeting. I will never forget the way you looked when you were selling clothes on the street, and even more unforgettable are the little things between you and me.

You like money, I will earn it with you, I will put all the money I earn into your hands, looking at your happy smile, I will also smile foolishly, at that time, all I thought was, as long as you are happy,

Your shortcomings, my father-in-law, mother-in-law and sister often remind me, in fact, I know all of them, but I can't bear to let them go. I think love means love all of you, even your shortcomings.

But, when did you change?

It should be more than a year after your sister disappeared. After many people who had benefited from your sister came to comfort your father-in-law and mother-in-law and expressed that they would protect the Zhou family, you and your mother-in-law changed.

While you are enjoying your sister's support, you are also envious of the connections she has made.

On the one hand, you are afraid that your sister will not come back and these connections will not last long. On the other hand, you are annoyed that we are all members of the Zhou family. The Zhou family raised your sister, so why are these connections only yours and not yours?

But Ayu, you should know that your sister is different. Although she is your blood relative, her abilities, wisdom, and knowledge are not something the Zhou family can give her.
