Chapter 361 Not Enough to Get Your Money Back

Only Li Chunhua grumbled with great dissatisfaction, "Why is there only one Jinbao?"

Those money-losing pigs don't deserve to eat such refined food as dumplings! The extra should be given to their grandchildren!

And why do all the other grandsons have three dumplings, but her Jinbao only gets one? The mother-in-law is being unfair!

Zhou Zhaodi saw right through her little scheme and immediately said without any politeness, "Jinbao has such a small stomach, one dumpling is enough to fill him up, he can't eat a second one!"

Even if she gets a larger share, she'll still end up eating it all anyway, though she knows how to use Jinbao as an excuse.

Li Chunhua knew that Jinbao had a small appetite and couldn't eat much, but she was still unhappy that the second wife's family had one more than them!

But seeing that her mother-in-law didn't say anything, she could only swallow her bad luck and accept it.

When eating dumplings, women are reluctant to eat them all in one bite.

First, bite off the pointed end, and the filling inside pops out. It's pork and cabbage, and mostly fatty meat.

Then bite off the other pointed end, eat all the skin, and finally swallow the filling in the last bite. It's so delicious that you almost chew your tongue.

My mouth was still oily after I finished eating, and I still wanted more.

If the Gu family hadn't brought them these dumplings today, they would only get to eat them during holidays.

After finishing her meal, Zhou Zhaodi smacked her lips twice and started thinking about tomorrow's lunch, her face full of anticipation: "The Gu family's banquet tomorrow will definitely have several impressive dishes!"

If it weren't for the fact that she wouldn't have the energy to work if she didn't eat breakfast, she would have preferred to start her day on an empty stomach and wait for a good meal.

The others also started to look forward to it, after all, the Gu family was really too rich. They often went to state-run restaurants to eat meat and dishes, so they would definitely be more willing to spend money on treating people to meals!

Liu Lanzhi was filled with emotion. Before getting married, she always thought that her family was better off than her husband's family, and she was prepared to live a hard life.

Unexpectedly, not only could he enjoy meat every now and then, but he could also eat at the expense of the wealthy every now and then.

After she became pregnant, she could eat a bowl of sweet egg soup every two days to supplement her nutrition, which even her sister-in-law from her own family envied.

Li Chunhua was quite dismissive of the idea; her mother-in-law had prepared a whole basket of eggs, a large slab of cured meat, and a bag of dried mushrooms as gifts!

If this family goes out for lunch, they definitely won't get their money's worth; they'll be losing out big time!

When she got back to the house, she had to tell her husband and son that they must eat as much as they could tomorrow, until their stomachs were so full they couldn't stand up straight!

Anyway, they gave gifts, so they can eat openly and legitimately!

Ma Xiulian secretly rejoiced that her family had a ginseng root as a gift; otherwise, she would have been too embarrassed to eat the dumplings, let alone take her whole family to a lavish meal tomorrow.

At this moment, Zhou Zhaodi, as if struck by a sudden thought, suggested, "Mom, I think we should all wear our best clothes to meet our compatriots from the capital tomorrow. We can't lose face."

They couldn't dress too shabbily, lest their future in-laws look down on their precious child.

"The second son's wife is right."

Ma Xiulian nodded in agreement, saying that her daughter-in-law was sometimes really clever, but a little greedy.

"It's appropriate to dress presentably when visiting someone. I have to work in the morning, so I should come back at noon to change into clean clothes before going."

No one else objected; if you wore nice clothes to work, those clothes would get dirty and covered in mud.

Furthermore, they are too reserved and find it difficult to get things done.

After thinking for a moment, Ma Xiulian added, "Go back and change your clothes, then go wait at the village entrance to avoid being questioned by the commune members."
