In Huaihe Village, the Ling family, which has many sons, adopted a little girl. Everyone thought they had gone crazy from wanting a daughter.
The Ling family sons were excited and declared th...
"The Ling family is really capable. They actually want to hold a banquet."
Although she had some minor conflicts with Xu Xiangru before, they were neighbors after all, so Chu Yuefang took the initiative to tell Xu Xiangru about this matter.
But Xu Xiangru now just thinks that the Ling family is just showing off.
Knowing that their family is doing well now, there is no need to make such a big fuss for an adopted child.
If you don’t know, you might think they are their biological children.
Xu Xiangru couldn't hide the jealousy in her heart and on her face.
After hearing what his wife said, Su Baoshan said, "The old lady of their family came back specially for this granddaughter. It seems that she values her very much."
Whenever Old Lady Ling went out these days, she never forgot to tell her fellow villagers about the banquet, and she also praised her granddaughter in various ways, letting everyone in Huaihe Village know that she treated her granddaughter and her grandsons equally, and no one should look down on that child.
Hearing this, Xu Xiangru became even angrier.
Old Mrs. Ling spent so much money for an adopted child, but her mother-in-law ignored her just because she didn't give birth to a son.
I went to my old family's house during the Chinese New Year.
When Xu Xiangru went out yesterday, she met Su Baoshan's sister-in-law Xu Chenglan. She and Xu Chenglan were from the same place, and they might even have the same ancestor several generations ago, but the two of them didn't get along at all.
Xu Chenglan was also a person who would not do anything without profit. It was estimated that Old Lady Su had done a lot of work for their family in the past, and she might have even given them a lot of private money, otherwise Xu Chenglan would not have allowed that mother-in-law to live in their house.
After all, we have separated a long time ago, and no one can say anything if we are not allowed to live there.
Now that he is willing to give in to Old Madam Su, he must have gotten a lot of things from her.
When the two met, Xu Xiangru listened to Xu Chenglan's sarcasm and ridicule.
It's just disgusting.
Seeing Xu Xiangru's livid face, Su Baoshan felt that his wife might have thought of something unpleasant again, and hurriedly said: "It's time to finish the meal. If you are tired, take a rest. I will take care of Xiuxiu."
Su Baoshan's thoughtfulness did not make Xu Xiangru feel happy at all. Instead, her face became even gloomier: "How can I go to sleep like this? If she is hungry, you have no milk to feed her. There is no milk powder at home now."
Su Baoshan was a little hesitant for a moment: "My wife blames me for being incompetent. I really can't get this milk powder. I'm sorry for both you and my daughter..."
Originally, Su Baoshan wanted to get a sheep so that his child could drink goat's milk, but after asking many people for help, he finally found someone willing to sell the sheep, but he really couldn't come up with the money.
Part of their family's money was still in the hands of Old Lady Su, and Su Baoshan had also gone to ask for it, but what Old Lady Su meant was that if there was no milk, they could just drink rice porridge, and that drinking a little less milk would not make a difference.
Su Baoshan didn't dare let Xu Xiangru know this, otherwise she would definitely be even angrier.
Seeing her husband's cowardly look, Xu Xiangru was so angry that her liver hurt.
Why is she so unlucky?
The man Chu Yuefang married was capable, her mother-in-law loved her, and she was able to give birth to so many sons. Her family also loved her to death.
In a few days, there will be a banquet for an adopted child, and she will definitely be in the spotlight again then.
Why is it that she is not as good as him in any way?
Thinking of this, Xu Xiangru felt chest tightness and discomfort.
