"Second sister-in-law, second sister-in-law!"
Meimei shouted at the top of her lungs, her voice revealing uncontrollable excitement, and she hurried towards the door.
"I was just taking out the trash, and guess what? Hey, I discovered a huge secret!"
Meimei deftly lifted the thick cotton door curtain, and her little head surreptitiously poked in through the crack in the door like a vigilant squirrel.
A pair of big round eyes rolled around, sparkling with curiosity and mystery.
"Come in quickly, it's cold outside. Come inside and warm up first." A gentle greeting came from inside the house.
After getting the answer, Meimei's face immediately blossomed into a bright smile. She nodded hurriedly, quickly put her two small hands into her sleeves, and then used her elbows to lift the heavy door curtain with great effort, and carefully squeezed into the house sideways.
As soon as she entered the room, Meimei's eyes lit up and she said happily, "Sister-in-law, your room is still warm, like a small stove."
As she spoke, she quickly ran to the stove, pulled over a stool, and sat down on it. Then she couldn't wait to stretch out her hands, press them tightly against the edge of the stove, and enjoy the warmth to her heart's content.
At this time, Ruan Xiaotang, who had been sitting on the kang doing needlework, frowned slightly and asked with concern: "What's the matter? Meimei, is it very cold in your room?"
"Not only is our room a few square meters larger than yours, but the stove in my room is not as big as yours. The temperature is a little lower than yours, but it's not cold either."
"Eat melon seeds and apples."
Ruan Xiaotang walked over slowly with a smile on her face, holding a plate of fragrant melon seeds. Each seed was plump and exuded an enticing aroma.
She gently placed the plate on the table, then turned and walked to the cupboard, opened the door, and carefully took out a few big, red, round apples.
These apples are brightly colored and are as lovely as little lanterns.
Ruan Xiaotang placed the big apples neatly on a corner of the table, then pulled over a wooden chair, sat down steadily, and looked at the person opposite with gentle eyes.
At this time, Meimei was not polite at all. She quickly reached out and picked up a big apple on the table, wiped it on her sleeves casually a few times, and then couldn't wait to open her cherry mouth and bite it hard.
With a crisp "crunch" sound, the sweet and juicy flesh instantly filled her mouth.
Meimei chewed with satisfaction, a happy smile on her face.
After tasting the sweetness of the apple, she slowly put down the apple with a big bite taken out of it, raised her head to look at Ruan Xiaotang, and slowly said: "My eldest sister-in-law, I think you probably have a partner!"
Hearing this, Ruan Xiaotang did not show any surprise or feel that there was anything wrong.
After all, the eldest brother in the family has been gone for so many years, and the eldest sister-in-law has been silently enduring all the hardships and tribulations in life alone. She has experienced countless ups and downs, and has spent year after year alone and deserted.
Now, if my sister-in-law can really find a partner she can rely on, who can support each other and spend the rest of her life with her, it would not be a bad thing for her.
Thinking of this, Ruan Xiaotang nodded slightly, and a hint of understanding and recognition flashed in her autumn-water eyes, as if she had already reached a clear conclusion about something in her heart.
She didn't have even a child to keep her company.
You know, my sister-in-law loves children very much!
Every time she saw those cute and innocent children playing, her eyes would sparkle with tenderness and envy.
In fact, the eldest sister-in-law has always been filled with loneliness and pain deep in her heart, and Ruan Xiaotang can empathize with her.
Because of this, she had an idea in her mind early on - she must find a good husband for her sister-in-law, help her embark on the road to happiness again, and rebuild a happy and warm family.
If this couple can love and support each other, and have a child while they are still young, making up the enviable Chinese character "good", what a beautiful picture it would be!
Only then will my sister-in-law's long-delayed happy life be truly complete.
At this moment, Ruan Xiaotang blurted out excitedly: "Sister-in-law, if you go to date, I will definitely raise my hands and feet without hesitation to show my full support!"
However, before she finished her words, Meimei on the side seemed to be frightened. She waved her hands hurriedly at Ruan Xiaotang and quickly made a gesture of silence, signaling her to shut up.
Cautiously, he lifted his butt and glanced out the window. After confirming that there was no one there, he dared to speak again.
"Second sister-in-law, we sisters-in-law should just talk about our own opinions. Don't take the lead on behalf of the eldest sister-in-law, especially in front of our mother-in-law. The one in the main wife has always been very sensitive about the eldest sister-in-law remarrying."
Meimei and her husband have always been very clear about their position in the Zhou family and never say anything that they shouldn't.
Never meddle in matters that are not your business.
I don't want to do something bad with good intentions, and I don't want to get into trouble for no reason.
Ruan Xiaotang understood Meimei's concerns.
I also know that she said this entirely for her own good.
But from the first day she entered the Zhou family, the eldest sister-in-law showed her all her kindness.
At that time, if she hadn't rescued him, it would not have been so easy for her and Zhou Xingze to get married.
They have always kept this affection deeply in their hearts.
You have to pay it back sooner or later.
"Mother-in-law should think about it from her own perspective. Sister-in-law has been without a husband for so many years. She has always been very cautious in the Zhou family and has been very nice to mother-in-law. Mother-in-law should be content from the bottom of her heart and should know what is good and what is bad. Sister-in-law has fulfilled her responsibilities and obligations. If sister-in-law really has a place to go, mother-in-law should let her go. She has a son to take care of her in her old age, so why should she keep tying down sister-in-law, a widow?"
Meimei nodded in agreement and sighed helplessly, "I wish my mother-in-law was as reasonable as you. Just wait and see. This family will be in chaos again in a few days. Sister-in-law, just listen to my advice. You are pregnant now. It is better for you to stay out of the Zhou family's affairs. It is a thankless task."
What my sister said is indeed reasonable.
After all, daughters-in-law are outsiders of the family.
If you manage it well, no one will say a good word to you.
If you fail to manage it well, you will become the target of public criticism, and all the criticism in the family will be directed at this daughter-in-law who is not related to you by blood.
The family is connected by blood, and they cannot be separated or broken.
But Ruan Xiaotang refused to believe it.
This time she will definitely stand behind her sister-in-law 100% firmly.
Happiness is something that must be fought for.
Nothing is delivered for free
