When cousin Lin Shuang's parents passed away, she was adopted by Lin Man's parents and became the family's darling.
Lin Man, on the other hand, became the sandwiched punching bag,...
Chapter 1061 (Page 1/2)
Song Jingjing thought that Lin Man had returned from Gangcheng, and her mother-in-law seemed to have had lunch in her shop at noon.
So, she turned to look at Huo Rou and asked with a smile, "Rou Rou, did you have dinner at your sister-in-law's restaurant today?"
Huo Rou nodded obediently and replied, "Yes, Second Sister-in-law, we are having hot pot at the eldest sister-in-law's restaurant at noon."
Huo Yingzi, who was standing nearby, also excitedly chimed in, "Mom, the hot pot at Auntie's restaurant is delicious, and there are so many other delicious dishes! There's even free jelly and watermelon!"
Song Jingjing smiled after hearing this, and then asked Huo Yingzi, "Zizi, did your aunt say she would bring you any gifts?"
However, before Huo Yingzi could answer, Xiao Ya interrupted, "Jingjing, don't ask. After Xiao Man arranged for us to have dinner, she took the food to the hospital to deliver it to your sister-in-law. Okay, don't worry about whether your sister-in-law brought gifts for everyone."
Song Jingjing smiled awkwardly and quickly explained, "Mom, I just asked casually. I didn't mean anything else. When I go to Hong Kong City in the future, I will definitely buy you the most beautiful and fashionable clothes there."
Give the children candies, biscuits and snacks that are only available in Hong Kong. I heard that the egg rolls there are very famous.
"Okay, Jingjing, stop worrying about gifts. The department store also sells egg rolls. If the kids like them, you can go get some sometime. But it's not appropriate to eat egg rolls in this hot weather."
Song Jingjing actually wanted to ask her mother-in-law whether her sister-in-law had talked to her about Gangcheng. She heard that Gangcheng was very prosperous and she felt a little yearning for it. It would be great if she could also go to Gangcheng to do business.
However, she still wanted to talk to Lin Man about the medical level in Hong Kong City to see if surgery could be performed to remove all the scars on her face without leaving any scars.
By the way, she also had surgery to make her eyes bigger and her chin pointed.
So she cautiously asked again, "Mom, you see, my sister-in-law is so successful in business that she has even expanded her business to Hong Kong.
As for me, I have five children to support at home, and the pressure of life is really too great. Can you talk to my sister-in-law and ask her to help me too?
Xiao Ya frowned and said, "Qingyan's salary is not low, and your clothing store business is also quite good. Logically speaking, raising five children shouldn't be a difficult task, right? Jingjing, you must not compare yourself with your sister-in-law!"

"Mom, I really don't mean to compete with my sister-in-law. I just simply hope that my children can live a better life in the future.
"Can you please take pity on me as a mother and say a few good words to my sister-in-law for me? Ask her to introduce me to some Hong Kong businessmen and bring me along if there are any good investment projects?" Song Jingjing looked at her mother-in-law earnestly.
Who doesn't want their children to live a happy and fulfilling life? Xiao Ya naturally knew what her second daughter-in-law was thinking.
However, the relationship between the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law did not seem so harmonious, which made Xiao Ya feel a little embarrassed.
As a mother-in-law, what can she do? She can't always side with the second daughter-in-law and speak for her, right?
"Jingjing, you owe your parents 4,000 yuan for opening the shop, and your dad and I 2,000 yuan, right? How can you invest if you haven't paid back the money you owe?"
"I paid back half of my parents' money to my dad, and he doesn't want me to pay back the other half. Mom, why don't you pay back the two thousand? Qingyan and I will take care of you in your old age."
Xiao Ya's displeasure intensified when she heard Song Jingjing's shameless words. She frowned and said, "Jingjing, our whole family knows about that money. If you don't pay it back, do I have to prepare 2,000 yuan for Qinghuan, Qingci, and Rourou each?
Qinghuan is not married yet, Rourou is still young, and the money your father and I have saved up with great difficulty is not much. If we take it all out, and my illness relapses in the future and I need medical treatment, won’t I even have money for medical treatment?
No matter what, you must return the two thousand yuan. Besides, Qinghuan is old enough to find a partner."
Seeing this, Song Jingjing quickly waved her hands and explained, "Okay, okay, Mom, I was just joking. Why did you take it so seriously? Besides going to school, doesn't Qinghuan spend his free time helping his sister-in-law with work? Could it be that his sister-in-law wouldn't pay him?"
Xiao Ya retorted, "Who said he wasn't paid? Qing Huan's salary is higher than those chefs. How could your sister-in-law treat him unfairly?"
